Chapter 236 Common Interests and Enemies

If Li Changheng knew that there was a Continental Hotel in New York, he probably wouldn't have thought about finding Corleone.

After all, this hotel looks like a home in the movie, an old-fashioned hotel built in the 1920s, but secretly it is the place where killers from across the United States who belong to the killer organization "High Table" receive tasks.

According to the rules of the Continental Hotel, once the hotel assesses the danger of the task, determines the amount, and collects the money, the target must be killed.

If one killer fails, more powerful ones will continue until the target dies or the employer rescinds the job.

Of course, if you cancel, you will not get your money back.

But this rule that can be canceled, to put it bluntly, even the killer group is not omnipotent, they are giving themselves a way out.

If several assassins are sent out, and even the most powerful one fails to complete the mission, it means that there will be no more assassins to take up the mission.

In this case, is it possible to trap the entire organization?

Of course, discuss it with your employer.

As for how to negotiate, it must be accusing the employer of inaccurate information and asking for more money until it is really impossible to kill the target.

Then the next target is the employer.

Then pull the target that can't be killed no matter how you kill it.

Even if you can't pull it over, at least use various methods and promise various conditions to reconcile.

Otherwise, the twelve elders of the High Table are also human beings with relatives, friends, and businesses.

Since he is not afraid of your killer, it means that he wants to kill the elder instead, which is really not impossible.

As for His Majesty Boris, to put it bluntly, he is just the leader of the beggar gang in New York.

There was very little that was going on in New York's underworld that they didn't know.

As for upper-class matters, give them time.

Either sending people into the target's family as servants, or buying or threatening people who are already servants, or other people who can get in touch with the target.

And Li Changheng knew very well that the killer organization seemed very mysterious, as if he could kill anyone he wanted.

But what really shines is their intelligence capabilities.

Of course, those movie protagonists like Destiny's Child are exceptions.

If there is accurate information, people like Barney and Trenches can easily become powerful killers.

As for the ace killer, it depends on talent and experience.

It is definitely faster and more comprehensive to spend money on buying Gabriel Cordis' materials from the Continental Hotel than the old Corleone who does not do the flour business.

Little did he know that old Corleone had been investigating the Tattaglia family and the other three families in New York for three months.

At 9 o'clock in the evening, in the Corleone Manor on Long Island, Tom Hagen took a letter and walked quickly to the godfather's study on the second floor.

After knocking on the door and entering, the old Corleone, who looked obviously much older, finally showed a smile on his face and asked, "Have you delivered the letter?"

"Yes, father."

Tom put the letter on the table and said in a low voice, "The people below reported that it was sent by a tramp."

Old Corleone smiled and waved his hands, "It seems that the young man is still as cautious and mysterious as before. There is no need to send someone to investigate, and he won't be able to find out."

"Understood, father."

Tom remembered that for more than a year, before Sonny died, he asked someone to investigate, and in the three months after Sonny's death, he and his godfather did the same.

Not to mention finding someone, they couldn't even find out their name or where they were born.

Ask Mike who is hiding in Sicily, he only knows that the other party has a stable channel for top-quality diamonds.

But it was probably because Mike left New York, so this young man who saved the godfather, Mike, and traded colored diamonds with Mike, was exactly what he said.

Only traded and contacted with Mike, and disappeared without a trace in the following year or so.

But he didn't expect Sonny to suddenly receive a call from the other party and this letter sent by someone after hiding for more than three months after his accident.

Old Corleone, who talked with Mike Corleone on the phone at night, suddenly felt a sense of relief in his heart that he could finally return the favor.

After all, the Corleone family is in such a difficult situation at this time, if you do a big favor to a sniper who doesn't know who he is or where he will appear, maybe a friendship will be established after a couple of visits.

When the family is at its weakest, any help will be invaluable.

Opening the envelope, he only glanced at old Corleone and frowned.

Just by looking at the contents of the letter, he could tell that the young man, who did not know his identity, had made enemies with the Mexican flour merchants.

Moreover, after experiencing the meaning between the lines for a while, it seems that this is to clean up all the members of the Curtis family.

That young man from a year ago has this strength?

Or is there a bigger force behind him?

But when he thought of the death of his successor, the eldest son Sonny, the old Corleone immediately picked up the phone and dialed out.

Soon, a smile appeared on his face.

Of the five major families in New York, the Corleone family does not do the flour business, but this does not mean that the old Corleone does not know where the flour comes from.

Old Corleone has already checked the business of the Tattaglia family for more than a year.

Otherwise, it is impossible for him, who has no cards, to plan to negotiate with the Tataglia family.

In exchange for a truce between the two sides, Mike Corleone returned safely, and slowly took over all the business and affairs of the family, so that Mike will be in full charge of the entire family in the future.

Looking at the frowning Tom with a serious face, Old Corleone ordered, "Find someone to find out if something serious has happened recently."

"Okay, father."

Tom picked up the phone, called several people, and then hung up on the last person with a deeper frown.

"Father, the news is that Central Mexico's new rising star, Gabriel Cordis, died this morning in a small town in Arizona.

Moreover, he was trapped in the sports car and burned alive. "

"That's right."

Old Corleone thought with a smile, if he was so cruel that he wanted to burn a reading owl alive, it made sense why that young man wanted other members of the Chakodis family.

There must be a great hatred in it, and at least 30% of the business of Tataglia and several other families in New York is provided by Gabriel Cordis, a big drug lord who has only risen for a few years.

It is in the interests of the Corleone family to destroy the opponent's business.

In other words, although I and that young man have different enemies, they all have enemies that share common interests.

"Go and rest, Tom, I'll go back to my room by myself later."

Knowing that the godfather didn't want him to know something, Tom nodded quickly and said, "Then, good night, father."

Although it seemed that there was only one night to check, in fact, in the three months since Sonny's death, old Corleone had already found a lot of things.

He picked up the phone and called the relationship he had contacted before, and after paying some price, it was easy to find out that Gabriel not only had an older brother and a cousin, but was hanging out in Juarez, Mexico.

There was also an uncle, Carlos Cordes, who helped him control the flour business in central Mexico.
