Chapter 29 Meetings
"I think you've all seen the situation with Renas lately...... Originally, I was going to leave after squeezing this place dry, but the family changed their minds and told me to stay here a little longer, so I'm trying to figure out how to keep the city from collapsing so quickly. ”
Donald unabashedly stated his "true intentions", and the naked greedy face of the superior made the smiles of the three people next to him a little dry for a while.
Part of the reason why the predecessor was so unscrupulous in consuming Renus's potential was that he had no experience in city management, but this was obviously not the main reason, after all, if he was just not good at management, he could have left this aspect of affairs to Huxley.
The fundamental reason why the predecessor really didn't care about the life or death of the city was that he never thought of managing a city well, and from beginning to end, he had only one purpose, to collect money!
Because of this, Donald is now blatantly putting this matter on the table, in order to send a message to these people, he doesn't care what Rainas will become in the future, but at least there must be no accidents here in the near future!
"You mean let's stop the activity?"
Boris glanced at the demon mask, his palm tightening on the seat handle.
The three of them came to talk as representatives, and the desired result was naturally not to stop their activities, and organizations like them were like a machine that relied on profits to operate, and underground activities as a source of income were carried out almost every day.
"Of course not, since your money has been handed over to me, of course I will not embarrass you...... What I mean by this is that certain activities involving the people of Renas must be stopped for the time being, such as human trafficking, extortion, etc. ”
Fingers tapped on the table, Donald was saying it lightly, but the resoluteness was palpable.
Donald naturally couldn't be so arrogant as to think that his words would make these underground forces withdraw from Renus, these people now respect him for nothing more than that he can bring them rich benefits, and he would be a little stupid to think that these people listen to him.
Donald can choose to continue to turn a blind eye to the other underground deals, after all, it is not his territory that is harmed, which sounds somewhat irresponsible, but for Donald, if he can, the first thing he needs to care for is of course his own people.
"But it's a bit ...... for you to decide on this matter of human trafficking and slavery."
The only woman among the three delegates, Ms. Gale, looked a little embarrassed and wanted to put forward some ideas, knowing that several of the underground forces she represented were implicated in human trafficking.
The slave trade was still common in many places in this era, and it was also one of the lucrative industries.
In a city like Renas City, where there are more than 100,000 poor people in the real sense, the life and death of the people at the bottom have never been taken seriously, and no one wants to give up such a good source of goods.
"I said, all activities involving the city of Renas have stopped!"
Donald didn't give Ms. Gale a chance to continue, but interrupted her directly, leaned forward slightly, and the gaze under the mask swept over the three of them one by one, and then said,
"This is Renus, my territory, my words, the rules...... For the rest of the time, in order to ensure that nothing happens to Renas before I leave, whoever dares to capture the civilians of Renas City as slaves or meat tickets, I promise to let him know what it is like to be hung on the gallows...... How many, kill as many as you want!"
Before the words fell, Huxley immediately stepped forward, and the momentum of the peak of the awakening level instantly enveloped the audience, Donald is now an ordinary person, and this kind of deterrence has to rely on him.
Boris quickly motioned to Ms. Gehry to shut up with his eyes, and in fact he did not need to be reminded that the sudden outburst of the seemingly kind old butler had already shocked the noble lady into a panic.
The concessions that should have been made Donald have already been made, but this does not mean that he will agree to the demands of these underground forces without a bottom line, he is the real boss of Renas City, if these people think that they can stand on the same level as him to trade, it is too self-conscious.
At the beginning of the negotiations, he gave these people a false message, saying that he didn't care what happened to Rainus, which actually has two meanings.
The first layer is the aforementioned Donald wants to make these people think that he doesn't care about Reynas.
The second layer is to give them the wrong message, that the next period of time will be the last days when Sewvett Talos will stay in Renas, and if anyone makes him uncomfortable for a while, then don't blame him for being ruthless and making him uncomfortable for the rest of his life...... Or rather, there is no chance to feel uncomfortable again.
The fact that these underground forces dare to make trouble in Renas does not mean that they dare to directly ask for trouble from the Talos family, that is because they have a long life, and it will not matter if they pay more money to the Renas City Council!
"We will convey your request on our behalf, thank you again for your reception, it has always been a pleasure to work with you. ”
After the discussion was over, Boris was not going to stay long, they were not here to visit, and there were still many leaders of underground forces waiting for them to return and explain the situation in a tavern somewhere in the rich area.
Donald was even less likely to keep these eyesores, and with a wave of his hand, Huxley sent them out.
"Mr. Boris, Mr. Balk, you two have achieved your goals and ignored our interests, which is contrary to the agreement we made when we came. ”
Not daring to fight Donald in the villa before doesn't mean that Glenn Gehry will suffer this dumb loss.
Of the three of them, the industries run by the underground forces represented by Boris and Balk are not related to human trafficking, so they did not say anything after learning of Donald's request, which made Ms. Gehry the only party to lose interest in this meeting.
She has to give an explanation to the people behind her when she goes back, and sometimes she is afraid of comparison......
"Did it go against it? I think the meeting was a success, and there was nothing wrong with it, what do you think, Mr. Balk?"
Boris did not respond to Gehry, but directly set his eyes on Byron Balke, who had not spoken from beginning to end.
"I also think it's okay. ”
Of course, Balk doesn't think there's a problem, he can still suppress the other party with his own profits, is there any good choice?
To put it bluntly, the underground market in Renas City is not a peaceful place, and the market share is so large, some people have to occupy more, so naturally some people have to occupy less.
"I promise it's not going to end that easy!"
What else can I say, the agreement has been negotiated, and Gary can't do more than curse the two old guys in his heart, and in the end he can only let go of a cruel word and leave.
For the other two, they were really tired of hearing this kind of words, and they left separately without care.
But behind them, someone wrote it down.
"It seems that the underground forces of Renus City are not as united as we thought, after all, a group of greedy guys..... You go to a few suitable people to find out the situation between the underground forces of Renus as soon as possible, focusing on the ones that are mainly engaged in human trafficking. ”
After listening to Huxley's report, Donald leaned back in his chair with a sneer on the corner of his mouth.
