America 1919

Nucky Train Eli's matter had quickly become known to Donnie through Lucy; however, regarding this, Donnie had not done anything about it for the time being.

Because Donnie had more important things to attend to right now.

"Isaiah, how much do you take in daily from your gambling den?"

Today, Donnie did not go to The Fuli Tavern but instead arrived at Isaiah's gambling den in the West District. Donnie's sudden presence made Isaiah somewhat panicky, as the news of Donnie living at Margaret's place had long since spread throughout the West District.

Isaiah believed that Donnie had come at this time due to the previous matter.

"Boss Block, I wouldn't dare mess with Margaret anymore!"

"Nonsense, if you did, I wouldn't be the one coming to find you today. Answer my question!"

"This is just a small gambling den, my monthly income isn't even as much as you make in three days, Boss Block!"

"So you're saying your monthly income barely reaches three to five hundred US dollars?"

"That's a day or two's income!" Isaiah said with a sigh.

"I have a deal here that can not only allow you to expand your influence in the West District, but also at least double your monthly income. What do you say, are you interested?"

Isaiah's face immediately showed surprise, and he asked excitedly, "Boss Block, are you planning to hand over the liquor supply of the West District to me?"

"You wish!" Donnie laughed and said, "Don't you suspect I'm using you?"

"What do I have that's worth Boss Block using?" Isaiah said with a flattering smile. "Moreover, even if there is, it would mean Boss Block looks up to me!"

"You're a smart man!"

Donnie admired.

Then Donnie told Isaiah his plan. After listening, Isaiah's eyes went from misunderstanding to slowly brightening, and then he excitedly said, "Boss Block, rest assured, I guarantee to complete the task you assign!"

Donnie, satisfied, took out 100 US dollars from his pocket and handed it to Isaiah, saying, "Have your men dress up in suits, tell them that places like the Ritz Hotel are high-class venues, and to speak politely!"

Taking the money from Donnie's hand, Isaiah's smile bloomed even brighter, "You have my assurance!"

"Good, I'll be waiting at the Boardwalk for your men to show up!"

A few days later at Scott's Tavern.

Although it was only the afternoon, Scott's Tavern was already quite full. Scantily clad women moved between the tables where intoxicated men would boldly pull them into their arms. The women were not annoyed by the men's actions, they only giggled, flirting, and soon a woman would beckon, prompting a waiter to bring drinks.

Some men, after enough drinks, would pick up a woman and head straight for the second floor.

Of course, in such an atmosphere, there were bound to be jealous squabbles and brawls.

In face of such situations, Robert and others had a much more simple and brutal way of handling things, by throwing the troublemakers out of the tavern.

Then the music and dancing continued.

Upon seeing Donnie come in, Robert also immediately came over, "Is there something you need?"

Donnie smiled and said, "Have you taken care of the things I tasked you with?"

Robert nodded and said, "It's all taken care of!"

After speaking, he turned back, called out to Chris who took out a key from behind the bar and threw it to Robert.

"I'll take you to see the place!"

Leaving Scott's Tavern, the two walked eastward along the Boardwalk. Soon, they arrived in front of a luxurious villa by the sea.

"Here we are!"

Robert flashed a proud grin, "Wait until you go in, you'll be amazed!"

Donnie kicked Robert on the leg, saying, "You're talking about surprises as if you've forgotten who told you about how to arrange this place!"

Robert chuckled, leading Donnie straight inside.

When the two entered the villa's hall, they could no longer see any item related to home living. Several gambling tables were strategically placed throughout the hall, with two rows of buxom women in bunny girl outfits bending over to greet them.

"How's that, does it meet your previous requirements?"

Robert stood in the center of the living room, introducing the situation to Donnie.

Donnie: "Let's go, take a look at the second floor!"

Robert led Donnie up the stairs to the second floor, which still had rooms with a large bed, a private bathroom, and various props...

"Where did you find those bunny girls?" Donnie, satisfied with the situation before him, asked, "Do they know what they have to do?"

Robert laughed and said, "They were found in some lodging apartments; they're more professional than us in these matters!"

Donnie laughed and said, "Very good, this place will temporarily become one of our bases. I will have John take charge here, and remember, we must make every guest feel right at home. Everything one can enjoy in Atlantic City must be available here!"

"Understood!" Robert nodded, but then asked somewhat doubtfully, "We'll obviously be facing clients from wealthy Philadelphia, New York, but all these people have their fixed places in Atlantic City. Will they come to us?"

Donnie confidently replied, "Don't worry, they will!"

.

Meanwhile, a man in a suit, but without the slightest gentlemanly demeanor, appeared at the Ritz Hotel.

After crossing the lobby to the elevator, the man went directly to the third floor of the Ritz Hotel and arrived at a room's door, where he knocked.

A man dressed in pajamas opened the door and looked puzzled upon seeing the suited man.

"Who are you?"

"Good day, Mr. Daniel. My name is Gary Thomas, just a nobody. I apologize for the intrusion, please forgive me!"

Thomas tried his best to appear gentlemanly, but he looked more like a street urchin no matter how you saw him.

"I have other things to do, I don't need your services!"

Daniel had no interest in dealing with such a person. He was a sales manager at a steel plant in Philadelphia, and all he wanted was to relax properly in Atlantic City over the weekend.

"Mr. Daniel, I know you're here to have fun in Atlantic City. We want to offer you a place where you can enjoy yourself, play comfortably. I guarantee it won't take much of your time, and I assure you, you will be very satisfied with my introduction!"

Daniel, feeling helpless, could only say, "It better be!"

Then, Gary Thomas began to introduce to Daniel the place he wanted to talk about.

After hearing the introduction, Daniel was somewhat tempted, but it wasn't enough to change his decision. "I know all you've told me, can you leave now?"

Thomas laughed and said, "Of course, to welcome your arrival, here is a token of our service for you!"

After finishing, Thomas handed Daniel an envelope containing three one-dollar chips.

"Even if you, Mr. Thomas, don't bet a penny at our place, you can still exchange these chips for cash. Thank you very much for your patience. Goodbye!"

This time, Gary Thomas turned and left on his own.

"Interesting!" Watching Thomas walking away, Daniel shook his head slightly and laughed.

As a person of some status, Daniel naturally didn't care about the three-dollar chips. But at that moment, he became interested in the place Thomas had introduced before.

Gary Thomas didn't leave the Ritz Hotel but continued to knock on other rooms' doors, with naturally the same spiel he had given Daniel.

That evening, Daniel had intended to go directly to The Fuli Tavern to spend money, but as he was about to leave, he saw the three-dollar chips on his table.

"Lose it all, then go!"

After some thought, Daniel picked up the three-dollar chips and, following Thomas's instructions, made his way to the villa on the east side of the boardwalk.

"Mr. Daniel, we're very glad to welcome your arrival!"

Thomas, who had introduced the place to Daniel earlier, was already waiting at the entrance of the villa. He immediately smiled upon seeing Daniel.

This was his first success of the day.

"I'm just looking around!" Daniel said with a smile.

"And we're very glad to have you!" Thomas bowed slightly, welcoming Daniel into the villa.

When Daniel stepped through the villa's grand doors and saw the scene in the lobby, he was thoroughly astonished.

He was a regular in Atlantic City, mainly frequenting The Fuli Tavern but having also visited other casinos. However, he had to admit that although this place was not large in scale, the level of luxury was top-notch.

"Mr. Daniel, this is Riley, your personal attendant. If you have any questions about our establishment, you can ask her. Also, any service you wish to receive, she will fulfill for you!"

As he spoke, Thomas introduced a bunny girl to Daniel.

Daniel swallowed hard as he looked at the bunny girl's attire. He'd sought this kind of service in Atlantic City before but had never seen such an outfit.

Casually, he pulled out a one-dollar tip from his pocket and offered it to Thomas.

However, Thomas didn't accept it, saying instead, "Thank you very much for the tip, Mr. Daniel. If possible, I hope you can tip with chips because here, you can get everything you want with the chips you hold!"

Daniel caught on and tipped Thomas with a chip.

At that moment, Riley took Daniel's hand flatteringly and said, "Mr. Daniel, how about I give you a tour of our place?"

"Of course!"

Up on the second-floor balcony, Donnie and John were standing by the railing, looking at the not-too-crowded situation below.

John asked with some concern, "Can we really make money with such expenses?"
