Chapter 1170 Commercial Street of the Seventeenth District
Jinglong dodged sideways, let go of the baseball bat in his hand, and approached from the side of the baseball bat a little bit, next to Batis's body, and fought with him in close quarters.
Batis was startled when he saw that he was being pressed so tightly, and hurriedly stepped back, but Jinglong followed him like a shadow, leaning against his body and retreating, not giving him a chance to distance himself......
The two warbands were fighting fiercely, Jiang Cheng glanced at Jinglong's side, and then withdrew his gaze, with Jinglong's ability, it should not be a problem to deal with Battis, although this Battis looks strong, but compared to Jinglong who was killed in the bloody rain, it is still weaker, so there is no need to worry.
Jiang Cheng's gaze turned to Johansen's side, and he couldn't help but squint.
I saw Johansen fighting with six thugs, his shots and attacks were very distinctive, first of all, he didn't let himself stay in one place, and at the same time, when he shot, he would also take the lead in kicking the opponent's body before the opponent began to attack him, Johansen was very good at using his feet, his legs were fast, his thin legs were fast, and with the bounce of a pair of legs, in this small space, six people still couldn't surround him.
Very good, very good, it seems that he has really gotten a little bit of the essence of Jeet Kune Do, Jiang Cheng made his own judgment, Johansen is worthy of being the one who opened a Jeet Kune Do gym here.
The struggle continued, and after about two or three minutes, Jinglong suddenly shouted, raised his leg and kicked Batis's right chest, and kicked him twice in the armpit, and finally flew and jumped, volleying a leg right in Batis's chest, a strong kick that made Batis take many steps back, and finally sat on the ground with a soft foot, looking at Jinglong with a surprised face.
"Hah!" Johansen punched a thug in the stomach, who punched him in the abdomen, immediately covering his stomach and bending over.
Batis glanced at Jiang Cheng and the others who were standing next to him, looking at the battle situation indifferently, and shouted to his subordinates: "Go!" He got up and ran towards the outside of the Jeet Kune Do gym.
"Want to run!?" Jinglong shouted, his face turned cold, and he quickly rushed out after him.
The six men brought by Batis, as soon as they saw that Batis had retreated, looked at each other, and immediately ran outside after Batis, Johansen did not stop them, but quietly watched them escape.
Johansen walked up to Jiang Cheng's side: "Brother Cheng, I know all these gangsters, they are a group of shops that collect rent behind Batis, and they are idle and wandering around West Street almost every day, and it is very simple to find them." ”
Jiang Cheng nodded, turned his head, and asked John with some curiosity: "Johansen, how much money can you get a year for collecting rent for cars like you every year? And how much is the rent of this gym? In addition, does Longxing have any other income? This Batis is so greedy, his income on West Street is much less than yours." ”
Johansen touched his head and said with some embarrassment: "If you really calculate it, you can collect about 200,000 Australian dollars a year, and the rent of this store is 30,000 euros a year, although it seems okay, but if you share it with other brothers, you can only barely support yourself for a year, and you don't have any other income." ”
After thinking about it, Johansen raised his head and looked at Jiang Cheng and said: "As for the situation on West Street, there are fewer cars parked, but that guy Batis is desperately paying rent, almost half more than the rent I charged, and I heard that he can get about 150,000 euros a year." ”
The corners of Jiang Cheng's mouth curled slightly, the little underworld at the bottom is really pitiful, he works hard for such a small income, how can he easily earn millions of euros a year, or even tens of millions, not to mention anything else, just now he gave 10,000 euros to each of his brothers, there are a total of 70,000 people here, that is 700,000 euros, just doing this kind of work to collect car rent, you can't earn it for two years, it's not easy to feed a group of brothers!
"Brother Zhuge , how much European development funds have our Longxing Association allocated this time, and how much have we spent?" Jiang Cheng turned his head to Zhuge Liuyun next to him and asked.
"I brought a total of 50 million yuan, but the consumption here in Europe is high, and more than 5 million points were distributed to the brothers just now, plus the purchase of various equipment, there are about 44 million left. Zhuge Liuyun said with a wry smile, it was just the first day of arriving in Europe, and the funds brought were spent more than 1/10 of the time, and the road ahead is still long, and with the current situation in China, it is also in urgent need of money, and it is inconvenient to transfer it again.
Jiang Cheng frowned, and then said slowly: "It seems that our Longxing Society must find a place as soon as possible, Johansen, do you have any good proposals?"
"Brother Cheng, the most profitable thing in Australia is to open stores to do business, such as those prostitutes, dance halls, hotels, etc. in the commercial street, in fact, they must pay nearly 1/3 of the share to Belar and Martin Luther to allow them to do business here, but on the other hand, Beral and Martin Ruth's stores, the gangsters dare not make trouble. Johansen began.
So that's the case, Jiang Cheng was a little surprised, the share handed over to the gang was really high, more than 1/3.
Think about it, if a prostitute can get 100,000 euros by selling, she must pay more than 30,000 yuan to the gangsters, and the prostitutes in the commercial streets of the 17th district are more than hundreds? A rough calculation shows that from these prostitutes alone, you can get millions of euros of funds every year, although it is estimated that the prostitutes will pay less, but with the income of the commercial street dance halls and other stores, it is estimated that the commercial street gangsters can collect about 30 million euros a year, and if these money are converted into yuan, it will be two or three hundred million!
This seems like a lot of money, but in fact, if you have a gang of 1,000 people, do you still think it's too much? But if the gang is understaffed, it can't do this kind of business at all.
In addition, Jiang Chengyou had heard that the gangsters did not collect a share from prostitutes personally, but from the shops and establishments where they worked, and these shops had long since withheld the money that should have been given to prostitutes.
Of course, if these prostitutes are not willing to hand over to the gangsters, then they can solicit customers by themselves, so that they will inevitably be harassed by the police and gangsters, and they are also squeezed out by the gangsters here, and generally can't stay at all.
"Hmm!" Jiang Cheng nodded solemnly, this is what the gangsters eat, if they can't make money or don't care about how to make money, then what kind of underworld is it, how can the gang grow?
While a few people were talking, Jinglong walked back from outside, with a hint of embarrassment on his face, came to Jiang Cheng's face, and said a little embarrassed: "Brother Cheng, I'm really sorry, I couldn't catch that Batis back, this kid is too familiar with the nearby routes, I went out, and I couldn't find the way after a few turns." ”
Jiang Cheng waved his hand indifferently: "It's okay, we will meet him again soon, there is not much oil and water on the West Street of the Seventeenth District, but the mosquito legs are also meat, gnaw it down another day! Let's go out and eat together." ”
Johansen's eyes lit up when he heard that Jiang Xiang was going to rob the place on West Street, and he quickly nodded and said, "Then why don't we go to the Chinese restaurant on West Street to eat, and by the way, I will introduce you to the situation over there." ”
"Okay, just do as Johansen said. Jiang Cheng smiled slightly, and took the lead towards the outside of the Jeet Kune Do Gym, and the others followed behind him.
Closing the door of the Jeet Kune Do gym, the five of them walked towards the commercial street of the 17th arrondissement, and came to the shopping street, which is really full of all kinds of shops, including clothing, adult products, and various entertainment clubs, including bowling, swimming pools, etc., which can be said to be readily available.
And on the commercial street, the flow of people is surging, most of them are some young people dressed in fashion, walking together in groups of three or five, almost every ten catties of rice, you can see a pair of young men and women hugging and kissing, as for whether they are boyfriend and girlfriend or prostitutes, only God knows.
While a few people were walking, Johansen introduced Jiang Cheng to him.
"Brother Cheng, there are more than 1,000 storefronts on the commercial street of the 17th arrondissement, of which the south street is Beral's territory, and the north is Martin Luther's, but in fact, the boundaries are not clear, because of this, there are often conflicts, if we continue to walk, there is a square over there, and you can see gangster conflicts almost every month. ”
Johansen pointed to East Street: "That place is my cake, the streets of the shopping street and the parks over there are often people parking there, especially that park, where my main source of income comes from, and the main storefronts on East Street are dance halls and red light districts and casinos, so they are relatively popular." ”
"As for Batis's place on West Street, hehe......" Johansen smiled a little smugly: "His side is full of regular shops selling clothes or other supplies, the flow of people is less than half of here, and there is no big park where you can park, you can only collect money on the street, if he doesn't raise the rent, even if he doesn't get 100,000 euros a year." ”
Jiang Cheng also smiled, the average monthly salary in France is about 2,000 euros, about 16,000 yuan, and 100,000 euros a year is equivalent to the salary of ten people, and most people in the underworld industry have many bad habits, smoking and drinking, prostituting and having girlfriends, which don't cost money? Not to mention that 100,000 euros have to be shared with brothers, so in this way, it is really a poor and sour person.
However, Jiang Cheng also got some other information from Johansen's words, there are more than 1,000 stores in this commercial street, even if on average, each store pays 10,000 euros, that is more than 10 million, not to mention that it is definitely far from this number.
