Chapter 2009: Lion

Although the miserable death of his brother made Qiao Feiyun want to start a massacre.

However, by comparison, what he was most worried about was not whether his brother's revenge could be avenged, but whether this matter would be exposed.

He knew very well that if the disappearance of these eight hundred Italian group members triggered international attention, the first person to be unlucky would definitely be himself.

So, no matter what, he had to cover this matter up; otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Thus, the news soon reached Canada.

After Old Godfather Ryan received this news, he immediately announced to everyone with great excitement, "The superiors have already taken the initiative to contact me. They promise that if your relatives have not returned within three days, they will pay one million US dollars in pension for each person!"

Once these words were spoken, there was an exclamation at the scene!

Although everyone respected the old godfather, they really didn't expect the old godfather to be able to predict things like a god.

One million US dollars was indeed a large sum.

The weekly salary of the vast majority of Italian group members was only one or two thousand Canadian dollars, and it was already remarkable to earn one hundred thousand Canadian dollars in a year.

Moreover, these gang members had huge expenses themselves, and most of the money they earned was spent on drinking and having fun. Only a very small part was given to their families.

So, if this person was still alive, their family members would never wait for the one million US dollars he earned back in their lifetime.

But now, the superiors were actually willing to pay a pension of one million US dollars. For the vast majority of the Italian group's family members, this money was an astronomical figure they didn't even dare to think about.

Thus, among the crowd, some people immediately began to get excited.

You must know that some people had more than one relative go missing.

Among them, the person with the most had three sons go missing.

If these three sons were eventually declared dead, he would become the second Old Godfather.

However, the Old Godfather was not as lucky as him.

The Old Godfather lost a wife and five sons, but only four sons received a pension, and the four sons added together didn't reach one million.

And he, very likely, could get three million US dollars in compensation all at once.

This money was enough for him to return to Sicily, marry a second concubine, and then become a landlord and squire.

So, at this moment, in the depths of his heart, grief and excitement were strangely coexisting.

Old Godfather Ryan received the respectful gazes of thousands of people, and his heart surged even more. He said loudly, "Everyone, this is just the beginning!"

As he spoke, he cleared his throat and continued, "The superiors also said that if it is finally confirmed that your relatives have died, then they will pay another one million US dollars in pension for each person!"

Everyone's expressions became even more colorful.

Some who were not so close to their missing relatives were already so excited they were about to open champagne to celebrate.

Of course, there were also some who were still feeling grief for their relatives.

However, the amount of money was too outrageous, so their grief didn't seem as intense as when they first arrived.

Old Godfather Ryan added at this time, "Everyone, don't be in a hurry! I think the superiors are so anxious to offer conditions that they must be afraid of this matter being blown up. In this way, the initiative is in our hands! So, I will definitely fight for more benefits for everyone!"

Someone below said, "Godfather, one person is two million US dollars; this price is already very high. If we push our luck, will it force the other party to be anxious? I don't want to end up getting nothing, or having the money I can get greatly reduced!"

Old Godfather Ryan smiled slightly, "Rest assured, I have served in the group for fifty years. I have no other skills, but I am confident that none of you sitting here can compare to me in the ability to judge the situation."

As he spoke, he immediately picked up the phone and called back to Qiao Feiyun's assistant.

Once the call was connected, the old godfather said in an unquestionable tone, "I don't care who you are. I am telling you my conditions now. If you want us to shut up, then pay at least five million US dollars in pension for each person, and this money must be paid in the shortest possible time!"

Qiao Feiyun's assistant was startled by this offer, and he cursed angrily, "Are you fucking crazy?! Five million per person, do you know how much money that is for over eight hundred people?! That's four billion US dollars!"

The old godfather was also startled by himself, secretly thinking, "Damn, is four billion US dollars that much? I thought five million times eight hundred was four hundred million..." ===== CHAPTER 2010 =====
