Chapter 279
Marcus did not immediately answer Xiao Ran's question, but pondered.
After a moment, he said:
"Mr. Sean, I can't tell you who some members of our family have been seduced"
"The other party is too strong, we can't afford to offend, but what we can tell you is that the root is in Washington"
Hearing this, Xiao Ran still didn't understand what was going on.
David and Sam on the side also reacted instantly.
Who could it be but that crazy old woman in Washington?
Baltimore's Alessandro family, whose strength has swelled dramatically over the years, is because of the support of that crazy old woman.
To some extent, that crazy old woman is the representative and biggest backer of the mafia in American politics.
She is also the most politically ranked Italian in the history of the United States, which is considered to have created 8 precedents and is still an evergreen tree!
Marcus's family is simply not ranked among the many notorious mafia families in the United States.
With their strength, they naturally can't afford to mess with the powerful Baltimore Alessandro family, let alone the crazy old woman in Washington.
Xiao Ran looked at the family boss, and then said with a sneer: "
I think I know who the other party is, and it's really ghostly!"
Marcus nodded, and then said:
"Mr. Sean, what happened yesterday is that our family was at fault first, this is undeniable
" "Fortunately, you did not suffer much loss, but we, all the guys who came to Manhattan died
" "Bewitched, the head of the family who initiated this incident was arrested by the FBI early this morning
" "Things have developed to this point, I think we should shake hands and make peace, which is good for us all
" Xiao Ran shook his head lightly and said with disdain:
"Shaking hands and making peace? How could it be that easy? Who will make up for my loss?
"In yesterday's firefight, several of my men were injured and suffered a lot of losses
" "For us, this is a vain disaster, and it is by no means a handshake that can be revealed"
Hearing this, Marcuston felt a pang of anger.
"Your people are only injured, but we have killed more than a dozen people, who has suffered more losses?"
"Because of that $5 million high reward chase order, the four guys who originally escaped also died tragically on the street!"
"From this point of view, we are the one who loses more!"
Speaking of this, Marcus's eyes quickly flashed with hatred, and there was also a trace of fear.
Xiao Ran looked at the other party coldly, his eyes full of disdain.
"That's right, you killed more than a dozen people, and indeed the losses were greater, but that was their own death, and they couldn't complain about anyone
" "We are an ordinary exploration company, doing business legally, why should we be killed and looted by your people?"
"If we didn't have enough force to protect ourselves, what would have happened yesterday, I'm sure you must know very well"
Marcus and his lawyer were stunned, their expressions very embarrassed.
They also understood that what Xiao Ran said was not wrong at all.
It's just that they have long formed a bandit mentality.
It is a normal thing to think that ordinary people are looted by the mafia, but it is just the law of the jungle!
The mafia occasionally looted and missed, and ordinary people should also feel fortunate and glad that they escaped a catastrophe.
Then settle the matter, instead of grasping on this matter, it will only cause more trouble!
However, what they met this time was not an ordinary person.
It's harder than them, not taking the notorious mafia seriously and ignoring their so-called rules.
Thinking of this, Marcus and they all had a little headache, but they couldn't refute it!
Without waiting for them to respond, Xiao Ran continued to say coldly:
"Speaking of the high reward of $5 million, it's just a means for me to assist the police in handling the case, it's not worth mentioning
" "By the way, the $5 million high reward was cashed out at the first time last night
" "If necessary, I am willing to drop more money, even hundreds of millions of dollars, and offer rewards to hunt down more people, cut grass and remove roots!"
Before the words fell, Marcus's faces changed suddenly, and his eyes were full of fear.
They knew that this ruthless guy in front of them could really do such a crazy thing.
For him, offering hundreds of millions of dollars in rewards to hunt down and kill certain people is a breeze.
But for those who are hunted down, it is a catastrophe, almost certain death!
After a pause, Marcus said in a deep voice:
"Sean, I believe you have heard such a sentence, it is not a disaster for your family!"
"If you do this, it will definitely cause a war, and it will not benefit anyone"
Xiao Ran looked at the other party and shook his head with a sneer.
"Trouble for your family? When did the mafia talk about this too? Haven't you always practiced cutting grass and roots?
"I am not a gangster, your so-called rules and morality do not apply to me, I have my own rules
" "If anyone dares to threaten my life and safety, or threaten my family, I will hunt down and kill endlessly, cutting grass and roots!"
"High reward chasing and killing, is a good way, for me, money is not a problem at all, how much you want!"
"Ugh!"
Marcus and his lawyer exclaimed in unison, all stunned.
This is a crazy person! And a maniac worth billions of dollars!
Who the hell can afford to mess with a bastard like this? Unless it's lively!
As Xiao Ran's words fell, the scene suddenly fell silent.
Marcus and they fell into thought, and then stepped aside and whispered a few words.
After turning around, the Italian lawyer said in a deep voice:
"Mr. Sean, you are right, this matter was provoked by our people, and you were just forced to deal with
it" "We came to the Plaza Hotel this time to reconcile with sincerity, hoping that the two sides could end the hostility
" "As for your losses, as long as it is within a reasonable range, we can make compensation..."
As soon as the words were said here, they were directly interrupted by Xiao Ran.
"You have the will to compensate, of course it is better, I am a businessman, and
I don't want to fight with anyone" "However, if you compensate for money, then forget it, I don't lack that dollar, that money is not worth mentioning at all
" "I am very interested in things like treasure maps and treasure information, and I am willing to accept such compensation
" "Ah!"
Marcus and his lawyer were all stunned and stunned.
Treasure maps and treasure information? Where the does this make us go?
In the blink of an eye, an hour has passed.
The negotiations were over, and Marcus took his leave and left the presidential suite.
As soon as they walked out the door, their faces darkened and became very ugly.
Because Sam was around, they couldn't vent, and they could only hold their breath.
It wasn't until he left the Plaza Hotel and got into his car that Marcus gritted his teeth and cursed:
"Fak! Sean, this damn bastard, is so fucking greedy, he's a madman and robber"
Although he was extremely angry, he did not lose his mind and did not say much detail.
At this moment, God knows how many FBI agents are staring at him, and where dare he talk more.
Not far away, several groups of FBI agents were staring at this side.
In the car he was in, there might be a few bugs hidden.
In this case, Marcus could only keep silent to avoid leaks.
They then drove out of the Plaza Hotel and back to Hoboken across the Hudson River.
In the Presidential Suite.
Xiao Ran discussed a few words with David and put this matter aside.
However, he did not let his guard down.
Sam, they are still on high alert in case of an accident.
Seeing that Marcus had left, Elaine and them came downstairs.
Although their eyes were full of worry, the three beauties did not ask much.
They knew it was better not to ask.
Knowing more will not only not help, but will increase troubles.
Xiao Ran calmed them a few words, and then began to get down to business.
About twenty minutes later.
Xiao Ran took David and several employees, carrying several portable safes, and walked out of the presidential suite.
They went straight to the roof, then flew to the Goldman Sachs headquarters in the lower city in a medium-sized helicopter parked on the roof.
At the same time, Sam's escort convoy also set off from the hotel and headed straight for Wall Street.
This time, they had no accidents and arrived on Wall Street smoothly.
After yesterday's bloody killing, especially the high reward, few people dared to fight Xiao Ran's idea anymore.
After arriving at Goldman Sachs Bank, Xiao Ran put forward all the antique artworks ready to be sent back to China and loaded them all into the medium-sized helicopter.
It also includes the Picasso pastoral painting, ready to be shipped back to Los Angeles.
Several relatively heavy items, such as Buddha heads, were loaded into armored escorts.
As for the larger number of Western antique works of art, as well as many high-value imitations and crafts, as well as fakes, they remain in this vault.
These things can only be shipped back to Los Angeles later, and there is plenty of time, so there is no need to rush.
Offering all the treasures to be sent back to China, Xiao Ran took people out of Goldman Sachs Bank, took a helicopter, and flew straight to Kennedy Airport.
About two hours later.
Xiao Ran's Gulfstream G700 roared from JFK Airport and flew to Los Angeles on the west coast.
