"Sister He, why hasn't there been any progress in Qingji Town?”Today, Ye Zhiqiu was finally free and started to care about the gang.
"Young Master, the situation in Qingji District is much more complicated than I thought. When we went to find a suitable land, we had already negotiated with the seller, but he suddenly changed his mind before the deal was made. I'm afraid that the forces in Qingji District have already discovered our goal.”
"Did you find out who was behind this?”
"According to our investigation, it's an old gang in Qingji Town, the Crocodile Gang. Their boss is nicknamed Iron Crocodile and has a powerful iron clamp in his right hand.”
"Only this information?"
" Yes, Iron Crocodile is from Thailand, so he doesn't have much information. The Crocodile Gang is a small gang that controls the major farmers 'markets and seafood trading in Qingji Town. However, because they have a long-standing foundation and get along well with the local residents, their influence is huge.”
"Get along well?" Ye Zhi Qiu didn't believe it," Don't tell me they don't collect protection fees?”
"Yes."
"Since I accept it, there will be contradictions." "Do you know how he convinced the seller?”
"How else can we convince them? They'll just say that we'll open a casino and corrupt Qingji Town.”
Ye Zhiqiu didn't think that the casino would make people fall. The real thing that made people fall wasn't the casino but the gamblers who had no self-control. It had to be known that the Autumn Leaf Party's gambling dens were all very formal, and the customers they received were all very reputable figures. It wasn't some big gambling den, nor was it a loan shark. It was just a place for everyone to gamble.
There was a huge gap between the rich and the poor in this world. The rich lived a life of squandering money like dirt. They had their own way of life. The Autumn Leaf Association's casino on Etorofu Island was always packed to the brim. Rich people from all over the world, as well as commoners who were looking forward to getting rich overnight, were all enjoying the extravagance of spending thousands of dollars in the casino. Moreover, the Autumn Leaf Club didn't even need to loan sharks to make money every day. Their wealth was rolling in, and they attracted people with excellent service and a rich variety of games. Other than protecting their own business and base, there were almost no illegal methods used in the casino.
"Affect the atmosphere? Hehe, we are all here to make a living. Could it be that they are more noble than us?”"They don't even have to pay taxes when they collect protection fees. We have to pay taxes when we open casinos.”Ye Zhiqiu was unhappy,"Have you thought of any way?"”
He Dingxin looked at Ye Zhiqiu, she actually had no other way: "Young Master, the easiest way is to get rid of the Crocodile Gang. However, if we do this, I'm afraid that the other factions will immediately band together. Then, we will have a hard time moving forward in Qingji Town.”
Even the Young Master of the Autumn Leaf Association couldn't casually squander the funds of the Autumn Leaf Association. In fact, Ye Zhi Qiu's every action had to be recorded and then sent back to the Etorofu Island for the Hall Master and Elders to look over. If Ye Zhi Qiu was too extravagant and wasteful, they would also have opinions.
The best achievement was to gain a foothold in Xinbin City with the funds within the budget.
It was the same for gang wars and wars. It was a competition of numbers, weapons, and money! Gang members who died in battle also needed compensation, just like soldiers. Otherwise, who would risk their lives for the gang? It was no longer the past. Everyone was not a fool.
Previously, in order to support Ye Zhiqiu and the New Road Party in their war, they had spent a lot of ammunition and money. After He Dingxin reported this sum of money, Ye Yixin had taken it all out of her own private treasury. If they said that they had used the money of the Autumn Leaf Party, who knew how Ye Yixin would be lectured by the elders. There must be all kinds of reasons for spoiling his younger brother, instigating trouble, and being young and impetuous.
Any organization, whether legal or illegal, as long as it was big, there would be countless interests involved. It was definitely not something that could be sorted out with just a few words.
"This is troublesome." Wasn't it troublesome? He hadn't even bought the land for the casino, and there were already so many problems."Didn't you say there was another plan?”
"Then we need to acquire land. We need to contact the government to negotiate the development project and then start the demolition and land acquisition. It will take a lot of time and spend more money.”"The land we are buying now belongs to the individual. As long as we negotiate, we can buy it. Then, we can start building and open for business next year.”He Dingxin still wanted to continue the negotiation of the land and not reclaim the land again. If he encountered a nail house, it was possible that it would drag on for a few years. Besides, He Dingxin still had an idea in her heart, which was to quickly help Ye Zhiqiu set up the stage so that she could return to Etorofu Island. She really wasn't used to helping Ye Zhiqiu. There was always a feeling that she couldn't explain clearly. She couldn't see through the young master so she wanted to avoid it.
"So troublesome indeed."
"There's no other way. We're running a casino, not an ordinary gambling den. Other than the land, there are many procedures.”"Originally, I wanted to get the land first, but now it seems that I might have to apply for a license first.”
To open a business, other than being ostracized by peers, there was also the difficulty of dealing with law enforcement. This was Xinbin City. It was impossible to open a casino without building a good relationship with the Japanese government.
It would be easy to open an underground casino. However, the people who opened the underground casino were all people from all walks of life and not rich people. Therefore, it was difficult to make satisfactory profits without developing loan sharks.
It could only be said that the profit figures of Etorofu Island were too high. If Ye Zhiqiu could not reach or get close to it, his results would not be worth mentioning.
So it was so troublesome to be in the underworld. No wonder there were so many transactions of power, money, and sex." You wanted to buy land first before getting a license. Is it because the license is not easy to get?”
"Yes, the casino license in Xinbin City is very difficult to get. It's almost monopolized by several gangs. It will take a lot of effort for us to get in.”
"But you have a way. Tell me, what were you planning to do?”
"We can bribe and threaten them. There are some officials in Japan's Ministry of Trade and Industry who are not clean. We have something on them. Although we won't use it easily, the acting president agreed to let us use that information to help the young master.”Japan's Ministry of Industry, Trade and Industry was equivalent to the Industrial and Commercial Bureau, managing the business side.
Ye Zhiqiu thought that her sister was indeed too good to her. However, although those things would benefit him, they would probably cause even more trouble for Autumn Leaf. The disadvantages outweighed the benefits.
This was because the evidence was basically that the officials had gone to Etorofu Island on vacation to do some 'happy things' and had been recorded by the Autumn Leaf Society. If it was made public, everyone would know that the Autumn Leaf Society had been secretly gathering this information, and the Autumn Leaf Society would lose their credibility in front of important figures, making them no longer willing to spend money at the Autumn Leaf Society's gambling dens.
Therefore, Ye Zhiqiu could see the conflicted expression on He Dingxin's face and immediately knew that this matter was not simple. There was only one reason why He Dingxin was conflicted. These things might be able to make the officials submit, but if others knew about it, it would be like shutting out the God of Wealth. Ye Zhiqiu saw through the disadvantages of this plan and said in his heart that he couldn't harm his sister like this.
