Chapter 166: The Trap

"It's almost the same, you can find a chance to make him make a mistake!", the old man took off his dirty work gloves and threw them aside, looking at the potted plants bathed in the sun with great satisfaction, this is one of his few hobbies. Maybe it's because he's old and doesn't want to move around too much, or maybe he has a desire for evergreen plants, hoping that he can be infected with some evergreen things when he spends more time with these green plants, in short, he is immersed in the craft of bonsai gardens. He stretched his body and let out a few sounds similar to the misalignment of bones, and breathed a sigh of relief, "It's really a terrible thing to be old!"

With his back to the light, he turned to look at a slightly dark-skinned provincial elegant person, and behind his smiling eyes was as cold as ice, "Do you know how much profit this city can bring us every year that is not on the books?", without waiting for the slightly darkened provincial elegant person to speak, he asked himself and replied: "One million and six thousand star yuan, is it very exaggerated, does it scare you?", he said with a sneering smile: "I forgot, you have been to a big city, and the income over there is higher than here!"

If there are outsiders, I am afraid that they will not be able to believe their ears at all, a small city on the border has an annual gray income of 1.6 million, according to official statistics, this is more than ten or twenty times higher than the city's total annual tax payment, and is one-half of the city's total output value. Such a huge amount of income actually comes from gray income! But if this income is broken down to every project, every executor, and every profit point, then it is not so exaggerated.

Skilled women, bars selling moonshine, human smuggling and trafficking, transportation of contraband, income from comfort fees, extortion and many other gray incomes add up to only 1.6 million, which seems to be a little less.

He nodded slightly, the provincial man who was standing in the sun across from him, this guy was Lewis, the king of the new generation of underground kingdoms who had seen the Grand Dock. He is the old man's "subordinate", and the main purpose of transferring him back from the outside this time is not only to fill the gap after Godol's death, but also to use him to deal with Xiun.

The old man continued, "But do you know how much money has been remitted to the Imperial Central Bank this month? more than sixty thousand star dollars, less than half of what it used to be. This number should have increased exponentially with the issuance of the second Prohibition, but now it has not only not increased, but only half of what it used to be, what is the problem?", the old man took a few steps forward, walked to a sick and crooked potted plant, and pushed the shelf directly.

The potted plant fell to the ground, the cracked pots were scattered all over the ground, and the compact soil in the pots was also shaken apart, revealing rotten roots, "The problem is with Xiu'en, his hand is too long, not only meddling in the moonshine business, I recently heard that he is also meddling in the business of the sheepfold?"

Lewis nodded, the sheepfold is a black word that means the business of buying and selling people. It's hard to understand the staggering profits involved in this kind of business without exposure to it, and there is no cost to the gang to kidnap a girl or a boy, as long as they choose a target, they just need to get the person back. There is no upfront investment, no post-maintenance funds, but the population they tied back can be sold for a very high price.

It can be said that this is a transaction with no capital and a profit rate of up to 10,000 times.

Girls or boys who are excellent in all aspects will be sold at auctions in other developed places, and the higher the quality, the higher the auction price, and sometimes even tens of thousands of yuan. As for the low quality, it will not lose money, less than one or two thousand, more than seven or eight thousand, there has never been such a thing as unsalable.

Moonshine and population can be said to be the two pillars of Turnell's gray income. Now that Seun has discounted his moonshine leg and intends to meddle in the human traffic, this has touched the core interests of the vested interests of Turnaire City, so they must kick Seun out of Turnaire or shut him up forever.

For this purpose, these people made a plan and chose the executor of a plan, that is, Lewis.

The old man pursed his lips, took off his gold-rimmed eyes, and rubbed his eyes that were sunken in his sockets, "Do as we said before, if he doesn't bow his head, send him to God!", the old man and Lewis staggered by, Lewis bent down and bowed his head, without a trace of hesitation. He had been to big cities, and he had learned more about how great the core energy of a city was, and that was simply not something he could compete with.

"Do this well, and you are the king of the sewers. If you don't do well, you will go back to where you came from!"

The old man went back to his study, and sat by the window, the light shining through the glass window warmed his whole body, and he opened the book and continued reading from where he had read in the morning, but his mind was thinking about something else.

By the time Xiun treated an informant in a very rough way, the news had already reached the ears of the city's heads, and they were all waiting for this moment. Xiuen was not so easy to deal with when he was calm, and they gradually realized Mags's true intentions, using his son's death as an excuse to forcibly promote the establishment of the Contraband Investigation Bureau.

In the early stage, they sent a broker to bribe Xiuen, but the guy is still being held in the Contraband Investigation Bureau for suspected transportation of contraband. Later, they also warned Xiuen by threatening and intimidating him, but he ignored them one by one. There are actually many ways to kill Xiun, but considering that Xiune's boss is the new governor, they can't use such a rough way as soon as they come up, so they choose to follow the rules of the game and make Xiuen make mistakes.

As long as Xiuen makes a mistake, there is no reason for him to continue to stay in the city, and if someone else comes, he may not be as decisive as Xiuen.

The purpose of a series of erroneous intelligence in the early stage is to make Xiun feel that he is being played by the city, so that he has an urge to be angry and have no place to erupt, he is like a leather ball, when the qi in the leather ball reaches the critical point that the ball can carry, at this time it only needs to be lightly touched - bang!

Deal with Xiun, and the city will be calm again, just like before.

The old man calmed down and devoted himself to reading.

The peaceful days did not last a few days, and Xiun knew that he had been tricked again, and the accompanying detectives wearing RCA printed on them walked out of the house with strange faces, and bypassed Xiun one after another, for fear of becoming the object of his discouragement. Recently, Xiu's temper has been getting worse and worse, but fortunately, everyone can understand it. Aside from cleaning bars and some entertainment venues every day to check for contraband for sale, they didn't accomplish much in other areas, but were teased almost once a day, or even two or three times.

The same is true today, when an envelope was stuffed into the mailbox of the Contraband Investigation Bureau, saying that narcotics were hidden and sold here. Xiun immediately led people across half the city to get here, only to find nothing but dust and rats. Sometimes when he receives information and clues, he already has a premonition that he has been tricked, but he can't help but come, and he can't come without being armed, what if it's true?

After being teased again, Xiuen took a deep breath, and shouted with an extremely ugly face, and at this time, a child ran over with a box and stood in front of him.

"Someone asked me to give this to you, but you're going to give me a dollar. The child hugged the box tightly, staring at Xiuen with simple big eyes, and there was a lot of determination that I wouldn't give you anything if you didn't give money.

Xiu's expression was a little weird, but he still took out a piece of money and stuffed it into the child's hand, and the child handed the box to Xiun with a smile, turned around and jumped away. The appearance of the child made Xiuen's mood a little better, he took the square box almost twenty centimeters wide in his hand and shook it, there was no sound of anything being shaken inside, and he checked it again, and it was not very heavy. He thought about it for a moment and decided to open the box, and the moment he opened the box, there was a bang, and the white smoke instantly filled the air.

The somewhat frustrated agents suddenly nervously found cover, raised their weapons, and looked around vigilantly. Two men rushed into the smoke, and after a while, they coughed and pulled Xiun out.

He wasn't hurt, and the white powder wasn't a lethal poison powder, it was just plain flour. But it was precisely because of this behavior and results that Xiun became even more angry, his hands involuntarily trembled, and his eyes looked at the surrounding independent houses, and looked at the windows that flashed or opened or closed on those houses. He understands that someone is watching him and may still be laughing at such a "prank".

While wiping the flour off his face, he asked angrily, "Where did that damn little imp run to just now?"

The people living in this neighborhood are all middle-class families, each family has its own house and yard, and the streets are very neat and orderly, and someone immediately pointed to the fourth house in front of him and said, "He ran into that house!"

Shuen said a word to follow, and immediately chased after him with a large stride, he wanted to know who was secretly watching his jokes, and who was playing him like this all day. He was already about to explode, and the flames ignited in his violently undulating chest could almost stain the entire sky!

Just as he was stunned and the door opened, two children with pistols rushed out and pointed their guns at him......
