James' department's investigation of Queens Borough President Eric obviously didn't move the progress bar at all. James used the procrastination technique. Many things were delayed and nothing happened.
Lu Ming did not rush and invited a design team from New Newman City, the capital of the United Kingdom, to carry out the preliminary planning and design of the commercial street.
Construction companies have already started work to clean up the ruins on Gatlin Street.
The Joint Investigation Committee seems to have been lame since its establishment. It is very quiet and does not seem to know what to do next. Probably because the first eucalyptus that was supposed to be used for surgery completely lost its rhythm, so the entire agency was confused. Became a lame duck.
Many eyes staring at the Joint Investigation Committee gradually looked away.
Some dignitaries of the Rose Party even began to contact Lu Ming and invited him to participate in some cocktail parties, dances, club activities, etc. Obviously, it would not be bad if the meritorious general who controlled him could eventually integrate into their circle.
This guy seems to be a martial artist and should be easy to deal with.
…
On the first floor of the Gaston Building, the original Dafugui was renovated and turned into the "Gaston Cigar Club". The entire first floor has been carefully cleaned and re-decorated. There is no longer a 1-dollar cabin.
Services similar to those provided by the 1 Yuan Hut to the Kuhaha people have been removed from the shack area.
No matter the Sickle Party or the Jacob Brothers, they no longer operate the sex business. All girls have regained their freedom. Those who want to continue the cheap skin and flesh business are not allowed in the Gaston Building, but some have been built in the nearby slum areas. 1 dollar cabin.
Gaston Property Company provides free security services to these cheap prostitutes and helps them with the legal registration process.
In the Gede Special Autonomous Region, red light districts are legal, but they must be registered and pay taxes based on turnover every month.
Gaston Property Company also provides guidance on reasonable tax avoidance for these women who are forced to make a living.
Vanessa was hired as the legal counsel of Gaston Property Company, but now her main job is to help these cheap prostitutes, including legal registration, guidance on tax avoidance, etc. She is very busy every day, but Vanessa takes the trouble. Obviously, she was full of sympathy for these women who had to sell their bodies in order to make a living, and she did not look down on them.
Lu Ming also knew that the environment of these women was different from that of his previous life. Many of them simply couldn't find other jobs and had to work in this industry, otherwise they would starve to death.
Of course, after going to sea, many people feel that they can make money quickly and easily.
Lu Ming cannot help everyone, but boys and girls under the age of sixteen are prohibited from participating in this industry.
Gaston Elementary School and Technical School were also opened on the third floor to provide them with free education. However, it was a student loan. They had to sign a contract and pay off the student loan in installments with their salary after graduation.
All this money actually comes from the "Gede Area Affirmative Plan" and is an interest-free loan provided by the government. But for the residents of Gaston, of course, they only know that their great savior, and even Gaston's "God", is General Bit.
Even though Lu Ming had already said that these were loans from the government, everyone knew that they could get these supports, and the "god" who really saved them was General Bit.
Lu Ming's status became increasingly lofty in the eyes of tens of thousands of Gaede people in Gaston.
At this time, in the box of the cigar club, there were Lu Ming, Jacob, and a black-haired middle-aged man with a snub nose, Bachai, a Mitai native from Antiguala.
There were only three of them in the luxurious and spacious box.
Jacob didn't quite believe in Bachai's identity. According to General Bute, Bachai was an exporter of drugs in the entire Antiguala region. All the drug lords in Antiguala had formed some sort of association. Bachai was The spokesperson of this association is also the spokesperson of all drug lords.
Drug production in Antiguara has been greatly reduced today.
Of course, with the comprehensive ban on drugs in the northern region, and Antiguala is a member of the Montenegro Treaty Organization, it seems that some unruly drug lords have been wiped out by the special forces of the Northern Han Kingdom, so it is inevitable that the drug production will be greatly reduced.
But in any case, Antiguala's drugs still represent high-end products in the world's drug market.
What if Mr. Bachai really represents all the drug lords in Antiguara and comes to Gil City in person? And to see myself?
What can I say? From now on, you, Mr. Jacob, will be the general agent of Antiguala goods in the Ged area.
In other words, in the Gade area, no matter who wants to get Antiguala goods, they can only get them from you. My channels are only open to you.
Jacob held up a huge beer glass and clinked glasses with Bachai repeatedly, saying thank you repeatedly.
When it comes to drinking, you can brag about anything, don’t take it seriously, don’t take it seriously, and there is no need to refute, just have fun drinking. After all, Mr. Bachai is General Bute, a friend of his boss, although he seems to be quite afraid of his boss. Yes, but it is even less likely that he is really the spokesman for all the major drug lords in Antiguara.
Bachai was obviously an extremely cautious person. He seemed to have drunk a lot of wine, but he was sober when he left. He had set up a secret contact method with Jacob for the next time.
After Bachai left, Lu Ming looked at Jacob and said: "Of course I support a comprehensive ban on drugs, but since it can't be banned in Gaedezhou for the time being, let's control the main channels. When we encounter the right opportunity, It’s broken cleanly.”
Jacob was stunned and looked at Lu Ming in astonishment.
Lu Ming continued: "You need to recruit more subordinates from Gaston. You suddenly monopolized the market, and those big gangs will not be happy. I can't help you openly with this kind of thing, I can only rely on you." Myself, of course, weapons and equipment, I can provide them to you.”
"Boss, are you serious?" Jacob said in a daze.
Lu Ming picked up the beer and took a sip, "Am I such a boring person? Just bring someone in and let the three of us talk about nonsense for a long time."
Jacob was excited and immediately sat upright. Yes, how could the boss be so boring? When you make an appointment with someone, you always agree to talk for a few minutes. It is very difficult to chat with the boss for one more minute.
I had never doubted anything my boss said before, but this incident was too unbelievable.
But now it seems that the boss is not joking.
"It will still be some time before you two contact each other again. You should work hard. If he contacts you next time, it should be about such a substantive issue as which channel to use!" Lu Ming stood up as he spoke, patted Jacob on the shoulder, and turned around. Walking out, he waved his hand again: "No need to give it away!"
Jacob, who originally stood up, slowly sat down again. The boss said there was no need to deliver it, so he really shouldn’t do it.
Gudong Gudong drank half a pint of beer, and Jacob gradually calmed down, recalling every word Bachai said.
I felt happy and worried at the same time. This was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to monopolize the supply of goods in the entire Gade region. What did that mean?
However, this will inevitably arouse violent reactions from those super gangsters.
The 4000 Party, the Left Party, the Hammer Gang, these gangs, crushing the small gangs in the slums is like crushing bed bugs.
Moreover, most of them have a powerful platform behind them. They are just tools to make money or help the powerful people do things that are not on the stage.
Of course, the boss behind him is even more mysterious. Just talk about this affirmative action plan. How much investment will it cost? My own boss didn’t even blink an eye.
In fact, I can also understand that the boss seems to want to influence the powerful people here, and now, he should have used the violent organization as a breakthrough, so he helped him pull the strings and attracted an Antiguala general agent, making his name disappear. A legendary pawn will soon become a thorn in the side of several major gangs.
He and they fought bloody battles, and if everyone started to move, the boss would be able to discover their weaknesses and take the opportunity to take action.
Thinking about it, Jacob shuddered and slowly fell into deep thought.
