Chapter 0240 Adding fuel to the fire
Sara stood up and saluted, and Downing motioned to sit down, and walked over to Gust. "I can give you fifty percent of the profits you want, and I can even give you half of the profits of all the business in Darius City, but yours will be the new king of the Darius Underworld, not a minion. ”
Gust's heart beat and he looked at Sara, who nodded. "Everything he says speaks for me, no doubt. ”
It seems that Cantona's identity as a military advisor is quite powerful, and he can't say why, seeing this former military advisor of Cantona, Gust always has a feeling of fear, and he swallows and foams. "Now that the underworld of Darius belongs to me, you don't have to doubt it. ”
Tang Ning laughed wildly, clutching his stomach. "It's the funniest joke I've ever heard, Gust, you should go to the local circus and become a clown, you must have a better future than you are a gangster boss. ”
Gust's face turned red, he was indeed lying just now, in fact, his leader Edgar did want to find a new leader in the underground world of Darius, and the premise of becoming a new leader is to take most of the business profits of Darius City, and a lot of money is necessary to maintain the operation of the underground world, so he took some of his trusted subordinates to start the local wine business first, and he must seize the opportunity.
And Tang Ning also learned this information from some sources, so he said this, looking at Gust, whose face was flushed, and his fingers tapped on the table. "As far as I know, there are many people like you in the underground world of Darith City right now who are working hard to become the new king. ”
Now that the secret has been exposed, Gust has nothing to hide. "As long as you give me fifty percent of the profits, I will naturally be able to become the new king. ”
"Then why can't I give it to others, but give it to you, and others say the same. Downing walked up to Gust, his face suddenly gloomy. "And you betrayed Mr. Cantona after his death, and in this respect you are at a complete disadvantage over others, and I am more inclined to help your rivals. ”
Gust was sweating profusely, and if he lost his position as the new king, he would still be a minion, and now that the power of the underworld was redistributed, he had to seize this rare opportunity. "How can you support me? ”
When it came to the point, Tang Ning leaned close to Gust's ear, "Actually, this is a chicken-and-egg problem, you have to prove your strength to me first, you should understand." ”
Edgar waited for a new right-hand man to emerge, but he didn't know that Darius's underworld was in chaos, and those who had the strength to become his right-hand man were fighting each other, and the reason was because of the conditions he set to become the new king, and Downing used the conditions of becoming the new king to provoke infighting in the underworld.
But this is not the end of the matter, this is just the beginning, in order to let Edgar have no energy to deal with himself, Downing has to continue the new plan.
After the military commendation, everything returned to peace, but for families who have lost their husbands or family members, whose grief is unknown, commendations do not bring back to life those who have died.
Inheriting the position of his brother Thomas, Gonzalo became the new military boss in Gothenburg, which was the result of the military appointment, obviously to compensate for the grief caused to them after Thomas's death, otherwise according to Gonzalo's previous military position, it was simply not enough to become the local Gothenburg military boss.
For Gonzalo, today is not a good day to celebrate, because his brother and two young nephews are to be buried today, and the funeral is chosen in the local public cemetery on the outskirts of Gothenburg.
Originally, according to custom, Thomas and his two children should have been buried a long time ago, but at the strong request of the family, the murderer must not be buried until he is caught, and now that the clean-up plan has ended, it is impossible to find the murderer, and the military has explicitly ordered the military not to interfere in local government affairs, and the power to sweep the underground world belongs to the local security department, and everything has to come to an end.
There were quite a few people at the funeral, dressed in black coats, and they walked up to Thomas's family one by one to express comfort and sympathy to the family, a process that lasted for a long time, and Gonzalo politely responded one by one.
At the end of the burial process, the coffin was lowered, everyone bowed their heads, Gonzalo himself sprinkled the soil on the coffin, and the rest of the dignitaries and celebrities also came up to fill in a shovel of soil, until the coffin was completely buried, and Thomas's family wept bitterly in the process.
Gonzalo as a family member, he can't be too sad, in addition to the reason of his identity, he also needs to preside over this funeral until the end, standing aside and looking at the grave, Gonzalo is silent and his face is gloomy.
At this time, a voice came from beside him. "Mr. Thomas and his children should not have been buried, they deserve an explanation to punish the murderers. ”
Gonzalo was taken aback, and turned his head to look at the young man next to him who was talking, dressed in black, with a sad face. "Are you ......?"
"Oh, I'm sorry, I told you before, I was a friend of Mr. Thomas's before his death, he used to dine at my restaurant, he was a nice man, he was talkative, and I came of my own accord. The young man explained to Gonzalo.
Gonzalo nodded, he didn't doubt it, but he did feel a little uncomfortable in his heart, the young man was right, they had to say something anyway.
"Those vigilante idiots can't be trusted, they just read the newspaper, drink coffee, and then come home from work and make out with their wives. "Young people continue to complain.
Gonzalo explained: "The military can't meddle in government affairs, even if the people in the Sheriff's Department can't be trusted, there's no way, we have to accept the reality." ”
"Come on, it's not the families of the military's top brass who died, of course they would say so. The young man interrupted Gonzalo and whispered a grumbling. "And everybody wants to see all the local gangsters eliminated4, and that's good for everybody. ”
The young man was right, it wasn't the families of those military top brass who died, of course they didn't care, and the anger in Gonzalo's heart was gradually ignited. "I'm not going to let this end there, I'm going to do justice for my brother and nephews. ”
The young man tilted his head sideways and whispered a reminder. "Mr. Gonzalo, don't do anything stupid, although we say so, but only vent the dissatisfaction in our hearts, otherwise we will get into trouble. ”
Gonzalo did not respond until the funeral was over, and when he returned home, the family was silent in grief, as if there was no luck or happiness in the whole world, and this was not the case in the previous home.
His rage burned like a flame, almost setting his body on fire, when a guard came in and handed a letter to the new military boss. "General, your letter. ”
Gonzalo took the letter, which was unsigned, and opened the envelope, looking at the contents of the envelope that made Gonzalo quite excited, and he looked at the sad family members. "I have to avenge my brother, and now I have a way. ”
The Gothenburg military soon had a letter delivered, and Gonzalo had Gothenburg's military on standby and ready for action in the evening.
Sitting in a tavern in Gothenburg, Downing drank a glass of wine and watched the drunkards around him party, he had to wait for news, and after confirming the news, he had to move on to the next place.
Soon news began to spread among the newcomers to the tavern. "Have you heard that there are people missing from the military, and now the military in Gothenburg has started to investigate. ”
The message spread quickly, and it wasn't long before new news finally arrived. "Incredibly, the military found the missing man, who had been killed, and several other local gang members were also captured. ”
Things went fairly well, and the local military used this excuse to immediately start cleaning up the local underworld, and a new madness began again.
Downing got up and left the tavern, mounted his horse and headed to the next city, he had to let this go on and restart the war between the military and the underworld, as for the letter that Gonzalo had received, it was actually from Downing, and the young man he had seen at the funeral was also Downing.
The letter told Gonzalo a viable plan, kill a soldier, blame the gangsters in the Gothenburg underworld, and then grab a few gangsters and torture them to confess, so that it would not only be a matter of government affairs, but also meet the conditions for the military to intervene.
Compared to the military boss, those guys in the underground world are easier to provoke, the local underground world of Fort Bronia has calmed down temporarily, although the underground world has suffered a devastating blow because of the previous cleanup, but there are many people left, especially some leaders, they can always get better protection than ordinary underworld gang members.
Of course, they were also quite dissatisfied with the local military, and it was only because of Edgar's order that they were not allowed to retaliate against the military, so they settled down.
Alessandro, the leader of the local underworld gangsters, is rebuilding the order of the underworld these days, the premise is, of course, money, a lot of money, the original underworld can get 30% of the profits from some local businessmen, but now after the military has cleared it, those businessmen have become bold and refuse to pay him 30% of the profits.
So his economy has become quite tight, and he and his underground world need money to maintain, originally he also had some business of his own, but it was directly confiscated by the military, and everything had to start all over again, which is not a good thing, so he hates those military guys.
But hatred is hate, he has to solve the problem in front of him, how to get those stingy businessmen back into compliance, this is the most important.
At this time, one of his men came up with a rather brilliant idea for Alessandro. "We can burn down their warehouses, and when they lose business, they will naturally understand that if they don't cooperate with us, the losses will be even worse. ”
Alessandro praised his subordinate, who soon found one of his new recruits. "Your idea is very good, the leader is very satisfied, do a good job, and I will promote you when I climb up." ”
The young man, who had just joined the gang, nodded and left.
