They first returned to Portland, and celebrated once again at the Allian Mossen Studio. The next day, Gao Yang and his group boarded a plane to New York.
Unexpectedly, Gao Yang didn't receive a call from Maide near the time of boarding the following day, but besides that, everything went smoothly.
The weapons had been shipped to New York the evening before. Little Donnie would take the weapons first without moving with Gao Yang and the others after receiving them.
The main reason Gao Yang and his companions stayed mostly in New York while in America was that the Glolov family, the Frye family, and their agent Little Donnie's home were all in New York. Thus, New York had become their main foothold in America. However, a downside of staying in New York was the strict gun control; not only was carrying concealed weapons forbidden, but even having guns at home was not allowed.
