Chapter 77: Neon gangs are so rude!
As early as when he saw the ninjas, Tommy knew that the enemy was from the Hand.
After all, only places like Japan would still play the ninja game in today's highly developed information age.
However, he was still a little unsure.
After all, who could be sure that this was not a trick by the enemy, deliberately pretending to be a ninja to induce him to clash with the Hand?
Therefore, Tommy deliberately left a few people alive and threatened with death.
By observing the reactions of the ninjas, he was finally able to confirm that these people were ninjas from the Hand.
Only that crazy organization could cultivate these crazy ninjas.
"So, the group of Japanese people who love to play tricks the most are the allies of Kingpin."
An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth.
Since he knew who the enemy was, Tommy had to take action.
Although the Hand was mysterious, the actual degree of harm was far less than that of Hydra.
It was not beyond his ability.
At this moment, the sound of police cars appeared outside the factory.
As usual, the New York police were late every day.
Tommy didn't want to deal with the police, so he didn't bother to talk to that group of people. .
So, he handed all the matters here to the security captain and asked him to go to the meeting on his behalf.
He himself returned to the processing plant and returned to the warehouse just now.
…
In the warehouse, Vanessa was still admiring the paintings on the wall.
She really loves art, otherwise she wouldn't open a gallery.
As for the ups and downs outside, she had been staying in the warehouse and had no idea.
After Tommy came back, he naturally wanted to thank Vanessa.
On the one hand, he was grateful for her help, and on the other hand, he still had some use for Vanessa.
"How much do you think these paintings are worth?"
"I can't say for sure."
Vanessa was a little embarrassed.
The price of art will change with the market trend.
But there is one thing she can be sure of, that Rembrandt's "Storm on the Sea of Galilee" was worth 300 million US dollars at that time.
There is also the "Concert" by Vermeer, which is also worth 200 million US dollars.
No matter how worthless the other paintings are, they can be worth tens of millions.
"According to the market price in 1990, according to my estimation, these paintings of yours are worth at least more than 500 million US dollars."
Tommy nodded.
However, after knowing the value, he had to find a way to sell the paintings.
Of course, the easiest way is to auction them through professional auction houses.
But he would definitely not choose this way.
After all, strictly speaking, these famous paintings are stolen goods and should be returned to the museums where they were stolen.
If he really auctioned them with great fanfare, it is still unclear whether he can make money, and troubles will surely follow.
So, he thought of another idea and decided to ask Vanessa to sell these dozen famous paintings in a private transaction.
Vanessa can open a gallery in New York, where every inch of land is valuable, so she naturally has some connections.
She has done this kind of thing of buying and selling paintings privately several times before.
However, she had no experience with world-famous paintings like "The Storm on the Sea of Galilee".
If she could really complete this task, it might become a good story in the art circle.
"Of course, Mr. Vercetti, since you trust me so much, I will definitely help you with this matter."
This is a big deal worth hundreds of millions, and Tommy handed it to her with confidence.
It must be said that this heavy trust still moved Vanessa quite a lot.
"Also, this is my contact information. If there are buyers coming, remember to call me to inform me."
Taking out a business card and handing it over, Tommy took Vanessa away and prepared to send her back to the gallery.
Having dinner or something is just an excuse.
Vanessa is not his type either.
Besides, just tease Kingpin.
If that guy really saw him having dinner with Vanessa, Kingpin would probably be so angry that his hair would grow.
After Vanessa returned to the gallery, Kingpin immediately got the news.
Last time, he was negligent and didn't think too carefully. Today, this accident happened, so he immediately sent his men to secretly monitor the gallery.
At the same time, he also used these people as bodyguards to protect Vanessa's safety.
"Have you found out who did it?"
In the office, Kingpin's face was still gloomy.
Although Vanessa was not injured and was not frightened, it did not mean that he would not pursue it.
At the very least, he had to find out whether the killers were targeting Tommy Vercetti or him, Kingpin.
No mistakes, one post, one content, one 6, one 9, one book, one bar!
"It's been found out, boss."
James reported the situation, with a strange expression on his face.
"Just now, I talked to Sheriff Blake on the phone and learned from him that most of these killers are from Japan, all wearing ninja uniforms and carrying samurai swords.
Based on these characteristics, I think it is very likely that the Hand sent someone to do it."
"It turned out to be that group of guys."
After understanding the situation, Kingpin's mood calmed down a little.
The enemy is not here for Vanessa, which is good.
But, what does the Hand want to do?
Didn't we agree to let him handle the New York affairs?
Every country has its own laws, and every industry has its own rules.
The Hand sent someone to assassinate him without even notifying him. This was really rude!
Moreover, the Hand was not aware of the breakdown of the negotiations.
In this case, they still went back on their word and blatantly violated the agreement of the meeting.
In this case, why should these leaders hold a meeting? Why bother pretending? Why not just let the Hand decide everything!
This was simply a provocation to his authority!
Not to mention, even his beloved woman Vanessa was almost affected, which made him unbearable and determined to do something.
"Boss, do you want to communicate with Mrs. Gao and ask what the situation is?"
"Okay, do it as soon as possible."
Jin Bing agreed with his deputy's idea.
He really wanted to have a good talk with Mrs. Gao.
The destruction of the Russian gang made Jin Bing lose an unreliable but very useful ally.
How to say it.
There was one thing he had to admit, that the power he currently controlled was still a little bit behind the old-fashioned Hand.
This is not to say that his territory is not as good as the Hand, but that his gang lacks high-end combat power.
How long has he occupied Hell's Kitchen? The Hand is a ninja organization that has been passed down for hundreds of years.
He is definitely far inferior to the Hand in terms of foundation.
The key is that he doesn't know how many cards the Hand has. It's okay to trust those fingers.
Jin Bing believes that with his current strength, he can still easily control it.
But when it comes to Mrs. Gao, who is said to have lived for many years, he is not so confident.
This is not fear, but fear.
If possible, he certainly hopes that everyone will not have a conflict and make money in peace.
But the alliance will not last forever. For their own interests, there may be a day when the two sides will be hostile.
Even if he is preparing for a rainy day, he must find another reliable ally, who may be of great use at a critical moment.
"Perhaps, that outsider is a good choice."
