"I thought about it" Angelo said

"What's that" Demetri said

"About the small shops here" Angelo said

"I'm listening" Demetri said

The four brothers were sitting around in Demetri's office.

"Buy it from the from and invest what people like, like the Juice shop that is going out of business make it a wine store or something" Angelo said

"But we can't keep the old managers, look what they did with their juice shop" Aldo said

Demetri sat back and listen as his brothers were talking, he picked up his drink he looked at it and then it click Demetri never did see a wine store here only in restaurants.

"Angelo is right" Demetri said

"What?" Petrov said

"Have you guys ever seen a wine shop in city?" Demetri said

"Well no?" Aldo said

"We can buy that shop and see if there is another beside it and open that wall and import all the wines and liquor and sell them" Demetri said

"I like it" Angelo said

"Good thinking little brother" Demetri said

"Yeah, and you want to leave us" Aldo said

"Come on I have one more year and I'll be back" Angelo said

"Well cheers to you little brother and good luck" Demetri said

They raised their glass, Angelo would be going back to school tomorrow for his last year. Demetri thought Angelo did a good job and there was no shooting, and still no word form the five families yet but Demetri kept a lookout placing eyes and ears at the usually place the five families would go too. The next morning the twins along with their parents drop Angelo off at the airport as Demetri went downtown and found the juice shop and found that two more stores beside it were going out of business. Demetri called the number and the manger invited him in.

"Hello Mr. Russo here looking for Mr. Marino" Demetri said

"Hold on" the lady said

She went in the back as Demetri looked around the shop, he place his hands on the wall it was would and the other was a wall.

"Hello I am Mr. Marino" Mr. Marino said

"Hello Demetri Russo" Demetri said

"Oh, Mr. Russo yes your the one that wants to buy the shop" He said

"Yes, do you know who else own the other two shops beside you" Demetri said

"Yes they are both mine, can't seem to keep up with the payments and no child can take over for me and I am getting to old" Mr. Marino said

"Well if that's the case I would like to buy all three stores from you" Demetri said

"Well the price is quite high, especially the overdue bills" Mr. Marino said

"I will take care of the overdue bill, I just want to know how much to buy it if from you" Demetri said

"Well I did buy these shops for about five thousand a piece, it was in the late sixties" Mr. Marino said

"Well right now after I talk with a lawyer it would be more" Demetri said

"Well, I can't really afford a lawyer" Mr. Marino said

"That's fine I will look for one for you and pay their bill, I just like where the shop is station at" Demetri said

"Okay, you can call me when everything is ready" Mr. Marino said

"Good, I will get to it. Thank you Mr. Marino" Demetri said

"You as well" Mr. Marino said

Demetri got up and went out of the juice shop, Theo open the door for him as he got in.

"Where to know" Theo said

"The law office" Demetri said

Theo nodded his head, as Demetri got a call from Rafael.

"What's the news?" Demetri said

"Well no sightings yet. And we just got two more carts of shipments" Rafael said

"That would be about twenty all together now" Demetri said

"Yeah it would" Rafael said

"Alright call five and set up a time and tell him five mill a price again" Demetri said

"Alright" Rafael said

Demetri hung up the phone as they arrived at the law office, the twins were coming back from the airport with their parents when Aldo got a call.

"Hey Demetri" Aldo said

His parents and Petrov looked at him.

"Alright later" Aldo said

He hung up the phone.

"What is it?" Valentina said

"Driver turn around" Aldo said

"Work?" Petrov said

"Yeah, he's stuck in the law office all day and we have to take the shipments to five, Rafael will met us there" Aldo said

"Why is he in the law office?" Valentina said

"Well let him tell you" Aldo said smiling to his mother

They arrived back at the airport where the Jet was at.

"We should be back tonight" Petrov said

"Okay" Valentina said

They got on the jet as their parents went back into the car.

-Time Skip-

"Cheers!" Valentina said

"When will the shop be ready?" Antonio said

"We need to renovate and we have to also get our liquor license so I would say two maybe three months and the Russo family will start being legit" Demetri said

"I'm so proud of you honey" Valentina said

"You should thank your baby Angelo, he gave me the idea" Demetri said

"To Angelo" Valentina said

They raised their glasses again, Demetri paid Mr. Marino two million and also paid off the overdue bill which was about fifty thousand he was able to get it all done before Mr. Marino went home.

"We have to do a celebration when the store is open" Valentina said

"We will, I will ask Angelo to come home if he can of course" Demetri said

"What's next?" Valentina said

"Hotel's been looking into it and found a few places" Demetri said

"Where at?" Valentina said

"All around Italy" Demetri said

"Nice and how long will that be?" Valentina said

"About when we open shops for the new store" Demetri said

The family talked more about the shop that they were going to open, along with other business they would go into the next coming year.
