Chapter 5777
Seeing the nervousness on Jordan’s face, Charlie, who had been silent all this time,
Immediately realized that the sound of the motorcycle engine getting closer and closer outside was probably coming towards him.
At this time, Hogan realized that Jordan might have caused big trouble, so he asked sternly:
“Jordan, tell me the truth, who did you offend?” Seeing that the matter could not be covered up,
Jordan had no choice but to explain
“Uncle, these people here are all members of a new gang…”
Hogan exclaimed: “Do you owe loan sharks?!”
Jordan quickly explained: “No, Uncle! It’s their former they just occupied Chinatown in two days and are now collecting protection money from door to door.”
“They want three thousand dollars a month.”
“If we don’t pay, they will beat people and even say they will destroy the store.”
Hogan frowned and asked: “In the past few years, the protection fee has been three hundred dollars a month.”
“Why was it suddenly jacked up?”
Jordan sighed helplessly and said:
“The old gang had a fight with them last week.”
“The losses have been heavy. Big Viagra has already given up and handed over Chinatown to them…”
Hogan was slightly surprised, and then asked him:
“What is the background of the new gang?”
“They asked for three thousand dollars a month at the beginning. This is too dark!”
Jordan said angrily:
“We and several surrounding stores work from dawn to dusk to do business.”
“We have to pay rent and labor. Because we don’t have legal status,”
“We have to go around and do business. It’s exhausting for a month.”
“We only earn a few thousand dollars for hard work,”
“And they want three thousand, which means that everyone is working hard for them!”
Hogan asked again: “What is the origin of this new gang?”
Jordan replied: “The name of the new gang is Burning-Angel.”
“The Burning Angels are mostly African Americans and a small number of Latinos from Brooklyn and downtown.”
“It is said that they are supported by Italians.”
“Now the Italians are gradually retreating behind the scenes and do not come out to fight and kill,”
“But they are unwilling to give up this part of the profits,”
“They supported a group of ruthless African Americans and established such a gang…”
Hogan asked: “Did they inflict the wounds on your face?”
“Yes…” Jordan said bitterly: “They came to collect the protection fee.”
“I couldn’t get that much money, so they beat me up.”
“The deadline they gave me was tonight.”
“If I couldn’t get the money tonight, they will destroy the store.”
Hogan asked again: “Have you called the police?”
“Yes.” Jordan said slumped: “But it is useless to call the police.”
“You know the situation. The main purpose of the police is protection in the rich areas.”
“When I called the police, they just came to go through the motions and told me that they couldn’t find anything.”
Hogan said angrily: “This is really unreasonable!”
Jordan said helplessly: “I called the police. , told them that they would come again.”
“The police said that there were not enough police to keep an eye on them.”
“They asked me to call 911 as soon as I see them, but what’s the use…”
“If the other party really came with a gun, I would have died eight times,”
“And the police probably haven’t even arrived yet.”
As he spoke, Jordan let out a long sigh and said,
“They are American citizens, we are illegal immigrants without status,”
“And the police don’t care whether we live or die…”
As he spoke, The roar of the motorcycle had already reached the door of the roast goose shop.
Jordan suddenly became more nervous and quickly said to Hogan and Charlie:
“Uncle, Mr. Wade, hurry up and go upstairs!”
Charlie simply sat down smiled and said:
“To be honest, I have never seen a gangster collect protection money.”
“This time I have to see it.”
“Jordan, go and get me some roast goose rice. I will eat and watch at the same time.”
