Chapter 90 Unscrupulous!

(The third update of the black car is here! Please recommend it! Please collect it! Please support! Thank you!)

The streets of New York in winter are still as usual, with all kinds of people, and the most eye-catching ones are the homeless people. These people gather together in groups of three or three, find a broken iron bucket, and throw all the waste items they can find and burn them.

At least this way, they can not be frozen to death on winter nights.

Li Mengyang sat in the luxurious carriage. He was bored and could only look at the homeless men outside the car window. There was no one in the carriage. The compatriot who came to invite him also served as the coachman, just as the Forbes family had no money to hire someone.

After almost three hours, the moon climbed high. The hustle and bustle of the 19th century metropolis had been swept away. What came towards us was the quiet rural scenery. The Hudson River split the fields in half, and the vegetation by the river was destroyed by industrial development. However, although the current season is not yet snowing, the strong wind and fallen leaves are full of solemnity.

"Sir, it's already here."

A beautiful manor is presented in front of Li Mengyang. One of the three-story brick and wood buildings is extraordinary and has a strong French architectural style. In today's United States, it is definitely a three-character and above-mentioned word.

"Thank you." Li Mengyang was neither humble nor arrogant. He maintained the politeness he should have. Although he maintained a bad feeling for the people he was about to face, what the Forbes family wanted to talk to him must not be a good topic.

"Please hand over all the weapons." As soon as I got off the carriage, a white man came over.

I didn't expect that there would be such a thing. It's right. Almost everyone in the United States has guns these days, so it's normal for Forbes to be a little more careful.

"Don't break it." But Li Mengyang was still a little angry. He handed over the Colt 1851 Navy.

"Wait!" But unexpectedly, the white man was not satisfied, so he searched himself!

"You..." Li Mengyang became even more angry, but he did not stop this white man.

Sure enough, there was a revolver on his waist, which was the latest product of Li Mengyang's Arsenal. The man had never seen it before, and it was very novel.

"Remember it for me!" Li Mengyang glared at the white man.

"Dear sir, I will remember it." The guy was quite proud.

Forget it, don't have the same knowledge as him...

Leadered by his compatriots, Li Mengyang came to a living room. Obviously, the Forbes family has a great clan and people ask you to wait.

Li Mengyang was fine while staying, so he looked around the living room. To be honest, he was a little surprised, but also a little unsurprising.

Blue and white porcelain, enamel, famous calligraphy and paintings, there is a pair of bamboos that seem to be Zheng Banqiao. As for the older ones, he can't see them anymore. It's just like a museum here.

Surprised, of course, the Chinese style is strong, not surprising, and it is also very simple. I think that the Forbes family is doing business with Thirteen Industry, it is really normal to have these things.

"Ha! Welcome! Welcome! Our great writer is here! It's really a waste of time to welcome you."

Hearing this voice, Li Mengyang immediately turned around. He was a little attracted by the decorations of the living room. When he turned around, he saw a majestic middle-aged man.

This man was wearing a casual home robe, but he knew at a glance that he was definitely not an ordinary person. He was a little fat, but he was considered to be fat in middle-aged people. Although he had wrinkles on his face, it gave him more charm. Although he was white, he was not so white, but his skin was bronze.

"Hello! Are you Mr. John Murray Forbes?" Li Mengyang just guessed, but the bronze skin was obviously something that he had been on the sea for a long time.

"Ha! Mr. Li is really a smart person! That's right, I'm John, haha..." John Forbes laughed and reached out to pat Li Mengyang on the shoulder, as if he was very close.

"It's too much!" Li Mengyang still showed no humility or arrogantness.

"Please sit."

"Please, too."

The two of them exchanged greetings and sat on the leather sofa.

"Mr. Li saw my collection?"

"Yes, Mr. Forbes has a lot of taste."

"Haha, I am really attracted by Eastern civilization. Your country really has a kind of magic."

"Mr. Forbes is indeed a Chinese expert..."

John Forbes and Li Mengyang started to chat. All of them were about art films and porcelain, just like the two guys were cultural people. No one could tell. One of them was a drug dealer, and the other was a legendary thief who robbed and killed people... Well, Li Mengyang was really a high-level literary youth.

However, Li Mengyang deeply understood that Forbes came to him not to talk about collecting or artworks.

"Mr. Li, you are Chinese. You should know that we 'foreigners' are taking great risks when doing business with you, right?"

"Yes, the road is long and there are so many dangers at sea."

As we talked about this, we talked about business.

"Yes! Every time I go to sea, it is an adventure, it is a terrifying journey! The weather, the waves, and the more terrible things are pirates and diseases. You may not know that my elder brother Thomas died in the sea more than 20 years ago."

"May him rest in peace."

Li Mengyang's answer was still so humble and unrestrained, but to be honest, he was really confused about what Forbes wanted to say. This guy was too capable of going around in circles.

Obviously, Forbes's way of speaking is learned from the Chinese.

"So, Mr. Li, you said that the wealth of our Forbes family is so difficult. Should I defend it anyway?"

Alas! The point is coming!

"Of course." Li Mengyang's answer was very simple, because he knew that too much words would lead to mistakes.

John Forbes smiled and looked gentle, "Since Mr. Lee can understand, I will say it clearly. John Brown's actions are supported by our Forbes family, and of course, not just our family. God will definitely appreciate our actions, but now, many people don't understand, and they will hurt us."

"..." Li Mengyang didn't say anything because he already understood a little. John Brown had told him about the Forbes family. Although it was just mentioned, this matter was likely to involve the Forbes family.

John Brown's behavior this time was a treason. He was attacking his own villages and towns in the United States. So, John Brown could not escape after this big hat was taken away, but what about the financial supporters behind him?

If you are implicated, the consequences will be almost unimaginable. If you rich people support a traitor, do you also want to traitor?

The slave owners in the south will definitely find out, and they will definitely use this big hat to do something!

"Mr. Lee, John Brown is a warrior, and he said nothing."

"I've always believed in him."

After Li Mengyang said this, he felt that the problem was getting big!

Yes, if John Brown doesn't say anything, then what are you asking me for?

But soon, the answer came out.

"But we know, the Southerners already know who is behind John Brown."

"Um?"

This is so strange, this... Li Mengyang suddenly understood!

"Know" means knowing, but I'm afraid there is no evidence. You must know that this is a crime of treason. Do you just casually hold this hat on someone else? Are the Forbes family dough? Do you just roll it round and pinch it flat?

Therefore, you must find evidence, and there must be evidence, and this evidence...

"Does Mr. Forbes think I'm going to talk nonsense?"

"Haha! The old man is overly worried."

Li Mengyang's words were already provocative. His implication was that if John Brown didn't say it, I wouldn't say it either. And since your Forbes family knows what John Brown would say, then you must know that John Brown would not give me Clint Lee!

As I promised at the beginning, John Brown vowed to ensure Clint Lee's safety.

So, is Forbes trying to explore Li Mengyang's words and get Li Mengyang's guarantee?

"I trust Mr. Li very much."

"..." I have to say that when Li Mengyang heard this, he sighed relieved, but unexpectedly, Forbes spoke again.

"But I also believe that people are unreliable!"

"What does this mean?"

Li Mengyang frowned at this time. It was obvious that he was telling John Forbes, don’t play tricks!

However, John Forbes laughed and didn't say anything, just took a few slaps.

The people in the living room were pushed away. The compatriot who had visited the newspaper to invite Li Mengyang to appear. He is now looking down and looks very much like a servant. He just pushed a car in, and there were a few things on it.

The burning candle, a long tube that looks like a flute, with a crystal clear bowl on it, next to it is a black ball, a knife and a spoon...

Ya film!

Although Li Mengyang had never really seen this thing, he now knows very well what the cart is used for, just for smoking cigarettes!

Seeing Li Mengyang's face change several times, John Forbes smiled again, "Ha! It seems that Mr. Li also knows this thing, you understand, after sucking it, it feels very comfortable. Haha, it's more comfortable than a god! Mr. Li, I mean very simple, just try it, try it. As for the terrible rumors about you worry about this thing, it doesn't matter. Our Forbes family will guarantee the supply you provide, and we will offer as much as you want. We are all friends, so you naturally don't need to pay anything to exchange..."

Forbes’ meaning is very simple, that is, to control yourself through this thing. If this thing gets addicted, the Forbes family will naturally be safe!

Li Mengyang looked at Forbes with a frown. He felt that the white man in front of him was like a devil, using his magic sound to tempt him to walk to hell...
