1929 I am a chaebol in the United States

Chapter 204 Let Hongmen help

Lu Chen pointed at the box full of gold bars and asked Wu Xuance:

"Boss Wu, what do you mean? Your family's local specialty is gold bars?"

Gang Leader Wu nodded and said, "Yes, gold bars are our Hongmen's local specialty."

Lu Chen was speechless. How could he not realize that Wu Xuance was such a thick-skinned person before? Gold is a local specialty of your Hongmen. How arrogant are you Hongmen? Even the Rothschild family, who holds the bargaining power for gold, is probably not as arrogant as you.

"Boss Wu, stop joking. You should take this thing back immediately. I just want Li Fugui's information."

Wu Xuance smiled and said, "Brother Lu Chen, you should know that our Red Gate headquarters was originally located in San Francisco. There is a gold mine there. Where there is a gold mine, isn't gold a local specialty?"

Lu Chen just thought that Wu Xuance was really a fool. China is also known as the country of dragons. Chinese people call themselves descendants of dragons. In this case, shouldn't we Chinese treat dragons as local specialties? I have grown up and collected so many local specialties, why didn't I receive a dragon?

Lu Chen didn't continue talking about this topic with Wu Xuance. He asked:

"Besides the case of Li Fugui, how is your investigation going on with Wei Zhengyi?"

When Wu Xuance heard Lu Chen asking about Wei Zhengyi, he quickly said:

"We have someone to investigate this matter. He has a good relationship with a man named Yun Qingfeng, and he is dealing with you to avenge Yun Qingfeng."

Yun Qingfeng, Lu Chen suddenly remembered the Chinese who went to the U.S. military base with Wei Zhengyi. He should be this Yun Qingfeng.

He mentioned the Yun family many times, so he must be a member of the Yun family. Lu Chen did not expect that the Yun family was so widespread, and even in Nanyang, there were people from their family active. Yun Qingfeng and Yun Qingchen, I don't know what the relationship between these two is.

Lu Chen thought for a moment and asked again: "Is Yun Qingfeng from the Yun family? Do you know anything about him?"

Wu Xuance said, "We also asked people in Nanyang to help us investigate Yun Qingfeng. He is not only a member of the Yun family, but also the person in charge of the Yun family in Nanyang. We also found out that he and Yun Qingchen are brothers."

Oh, Yun Qingchen's brothers, no wonder they are all of the same character. Lu Chen asked again:

"Boss Wu, I heard that Yun Qingchen has a good relationship with your Red Sect. You guys are not going to help Yun Qingchen like Wei Zhengyi did, are you?"

Wu Xuance quickly waved his hand and said, "Brother Lu Chen, don't talk nonsense. Yun Qingchen has nothing to do with us at Hongmen."

"Then why did I hear that Yun Qingchen wanted to marry his daughter to the son of your Red Sect Elder Chen?"

Wu Xuance smiled and said:

"Brother Lu Chen, don't listen to the nonsense of those people outside. These are all rumors. We don't have any Elder Chen in Hongmen. Besides, the elders are all in their seventies or eighties, and their sons are also in their forties or fifties. They are almost the same age as Yun Qingchen. How could they possibly marry a girl in her teens or twenty years old?"

There is no elder named Chen in the Red Gate. What's going on? Yun Wanting told me in person that her father found an elder named Chen to deal with me. Could it be that Yun Wanting lied to me?

Lu Chen confirmed: "What about the candidate elder named Chen, or Zeng?"

Wu Xuance thought for a moment and said, "A candidate elder with the surname Chen? I have never heard of a candidate elder with the surname Chen. There are quite a few with the surname Zeng."

After hearing Wu Xuance's answer, Lu Chen was basically certain that Yun Wanting must have lied. In this case, Lu Chen did not dwell on this topic. He thought for a while and asked:

"Boss Wu, do you have a way to contact all the Chinese in New York?"

Wu Xuance smiled and said, "It is definitely impossible to contact all Chinese people, but we can contact 70 to 80 percent of them. What's the matter, Brother Lu Chen, you want to find someone?"

Lu Chen continued, "Then, can you help me contact those Chinese who have the right to vote?"

"What is voting rights? What is that?" Wu Xuance looked at Lu Chen in confusion.

After thinking for a while, Lu Chen explained: "They are Chinese who have become American citizens. Can you contact these people? Also, do you know how many such people there are?"

Wu Xuance suddenly realized and said, "So you want to ask them. We can also contact those Chinese who have become American citizens. There are not many of them, only about 20,000 people."

When Lu Chen heard Wu Xuance say that he could contact these people, he was very excited. If he could organize these people and collectively vote for one person, then this guy's votes would definitely be higher than others.

Lu Chen thought for a moment and said, "Boss Wu, can you control these people?"

Wu Xuance smiled and said, "We can't control them. We just have a pretty good relationship with them."

Lu Chen's eyes lit up and he quickly asked:

"Then can you influence their votes? In elections?"

Wu Xuance said uncertainly:

"Maybe. We've never asked them to do anything. It should be okay for them to do us a favor and vote for one person. They won't participate in this election anyway. It doesn't matter to them who they vote for."

Hearing Wu Xuance say that he could stop these people from voting for one person, Lu Chen finally smiled happily. Lu Chen said:

"Then I'll have to trouble Gang Leader Wu to do me a favor."

"What can I do for you, Brother Lu Chen?"

Lu Chen smiled and said, "Isn't there going to be a mayoral election next year? I would like to ask Gang Leader Wu to organize these people."

Wu Xuance looked at Lu Chen and said in disbelief:

"Brother Lu Chen, are you planning to participate in the mayoral election?"

Lu Chen quickly explained, "It's not me who is going to run in the election, it's a friend of mine who is going to run in the election. He asked me to help him canvass for votes, so I thought of you. I didn't expect you to be able to organize more than 20,000 voters. Now my friend should be safe."

Wu Xuance smiled and said, "Since it is Lu Chen who is blackmailing your friend, then we must help him with all our strength. When the time comes, let me know and I will definitely help you get this done."

Lu Chen smiled and said, "Thank you very much, Gang Leader Wu."
