Chapter 2449 Mayor's Banquet

Las Vegas.

This place is completely different from the prosperous, lavish, and unforgettable Jinjin Cave that Meng Shaoyuan imagined.

Today's Las Vegas is still a small city considered a bitter cold place by Americans.

Desolate and backward.

No one wants to invest here.

Except for two people who are optimistic about the prospects here.

One is Meng Shaoyuan.

Another one is Siegel of the Mafia.

Although they were competitors, Meng Shaoyuan had to admire Siegel's vision.

Although there are legal provisions, carriages as a means of transportation have been completely eliminated.

Sitting in the car and looking outside, you can see the dilapidation here everywhere.

A place where birds don’t poop and chickens don’t lay eggs.

Las Vegas City Government.

Mayor Clermont came with almost all the important officials to welcome Charles Meng and Mr. Doncos.

You know, before Meng Shaoyuan, almost no one was willing to invest in Las Vegas.

There is only one Siegel.

But for God's sake, he's a gangster.

They don't want to have too much involvement with this guy.

You know, these officials all want to change Las Vegas.

They always imagined that this place would be as prosperous as New York.

Just a dream.

Now, the real investors have arrived.

They didn't know who Charles was.

However, most of them have heard of Mr. Doncos' name.

This is a famous financial businessman in New York and a true upper-class gentleman.

For him to come to this small place is simply the greatest honor in Las Vegas.

Mayor Gramont warmly welcomed them.

Among these people, Meng Shaoyuan saw Judith Carlott and the expressionless man next to her.

"Charles."

In full view of everyone, Judith walked up to Meng Shaoyuan and hugged him gently: "Welcome to Las Vegas."

Mayor Greymond and the officials looked in a daze.

Judith is from the Baker family.

How could she be so affectionate to Charles?

"Introducing you." Judith pointed to the man next to her and said, "My husband, Felton Caillot."

"Mr. Carlot, it is my honor to meet you."

"Mr. Charles, you welcome investment in Las Vegas."

As the chief reviewer of the Nevada Gaming Commission, Felton looks serious at all times:

"I am sure that Mayor Greymond and city officials will provide you with all necessary help."

"Yes, we will."

Mayor Greymond replied without hesitation.

Being so close to the Carlott family made the mayor determined to hug the big tree of Charles.

What follows is a boring welcome ceremony.

Listening to the speeches of those officials, Meng Shaoyuan fell asleep.

But he had to put on a happy face.

After finally getting through it, it was just the same drinking party.

Mayor Gramont and city officials took turns coming to toast.

Meng Shaoyuan, Donkaos, and the Carlott couple are all the people they need to please.

After dealing with the situation one after another, Meng Shaoyuan finally found an opportunity to be alone with the Carlotts.

At all times, Felton Caillot has a serious look.

"My dear, this is a friend of the Baker family." Judith knew her husband too well: "This is not an audit committee, and Charles is not the person you need to audit."

Felton then forced a smile.

"Thank you for your efforts, Mr. Carlot." Meng Shaoyuan knew the virtues of these officials and didn't take them too seriously: "Believe me, I will contribute to the prosperity of Las Vegas."

This is a beautiful scene.

Felton also said something perfunctory.

"Charles, my husband is in some trouble right now."

Judith suddenly said: "We need someone who can help my husband solve his problem."

trouble?

What trouble?

Meng Shaoyuan was a little curious.

This is a powerful figure.

Moreover, the Baker family had a very good relationship with Hoover. What kind of trouble could the FBI not handle?

"Mr. Carlot, Mrs. Carlot, please explain in detail." Meng Shaoyuan said calmly: "Maybe I can help you solve it."

Felton hesitated for a moment: "A woman took away some very important things from me. I need to get them back."

Um?

Before Meng Shaoyuan could react, Judith had already glared at her husband fiercely, and then whispered: "Charles, what that cousin has in his hands is enough to harm my husband's future.

But she's hiding now, and we have to find her and what's in her hands as soon as possible."

Although it was very vague, Meng Shaoyuan still roughly guessed what was going on.

That woman should be Felton's mistress.

She stole important evidence that could threaten Felton's career, and then blackmailed Felton.

Yes, Felton can ask the FBI for help.

But I'm afraid this evidence is too important to fall into the hands of the FBI.

Will Hoover bail him out?

It’s hard to say.

However, this will definitely be used by Hoover to blackmail the Carlott family and even the Baker family!

Therefore, they must seek help from other places.

A foreigner.

"My wife told me that you are from the intelligence service." Felton said with some difficulty: "You may be able to find a way, Charles."

Meng Shaoyuan did not answer immediately: "Can you be more detailed?"

"Yes, Charles." Felton took a breath: "Her name is Polly, and she used to be my assistant. She knows a lot about me. Some time ago, she asked me to borrow a large amount of money, and I refused.

Already.

This damn woman sneaked into my office quietly at night and stole several important documents."

Meng Shaoyuan interrupted him: "Aren't these documents placed in the safe?"

"Put it in the safe, but Polly didn't know when she knew the password to the safe, and she secretly obtained the key."

Felton smiled bitterly: "I promise, I never thought she would do such a terrible thing. "

"If you tell this cousin everything, you will be in the hands of this cousin."

Judith lost her elegance: "In your eyes, you only see her youth and beauty. Not only will you destroy yourself, but you will also implicate the Baker family."

Having said this, he seemed to feel that he should not be so rude in front of Charles:

"Charles, we need to find this woman as soon as possible. I know you have many friends even in the United States. Can you help us?"

"Of course, Mrs. Carlot." Meng Shaoyuan did not think about it too much: "But before that, I need all the information about Polly, all of it!"
