Chapter 835: The Children's Struggle (Part I)

"Boss! Chief! Something's wrong!" In a room on the top floor of Living Hell, a half-old child hurriedly pushed the door open and said to Colbert, who was writing on his desk, "Something has happened to those three streets in the East Side Phase 1 redevelopment plan!"

Copote didn't look up and asked, "What's wrong?" It's worth all the fuss you're making about?"

"That's it...... It's just ......" The kid seemed to be afraid of being reprimanded, he hesitated for a long time, but still gritted his teeth and said, "The people in charge of this matter have been running around outside for the past few days, and none of them have been watched, and five or six of the gang bosses there have died, and we don't know how they died......

"Five or six?" Cobot raised an eyebrow, looked at him and asked, "There shouldn't be any big gangs on those three streets, there are only a few small gangs in total, you mean, their bosses are all dead?"

The boy swallowed and said, "Almost, not only that, but some of the little ones are also dead......

"How did you die?" Cobot asked again.

"The deaths are quite fancy, some are shot, some are strangled, some are drowned, and all in all, it doesn't look like a gangster vendetta......" The kid scratched his head and said with some confusion.

The person who reported this incident also felt very strange when he passed on this message, generally speaking, if a gang boss died, most of them were shot in the front, and some of the sneak attacks were only shot a few times from the back.

But in a short period of time, so many gang bosses died, and the way of death was still very fancy, it was very strange.

"Is there anything unusual nearby?" Cobott asked.

"Anomalous? There are no major anomalies, but there seem to be a lot fewer child gangs there, and they may have been kicked out in advance by these gangs." The kid said.

"Kicked out early by the gang?" Colbert put down his pen, sat up straight, and said, "Why was the Kid Gang kicked out by the gang?"

"Because...... Boss, as you know, the Wayne Group has given a renovation plan that doesn't discriminate against everyone, and everyone can get a room, no matter how old they are."

"Recently, we have been putting order in order around the living hell, and we all know that the rent there is very expensive, and if we can control one more room, we can earn a lot of rent, as long as we drive the children out, the houses that are assigned to them will be owned by the local gangs."

"It used to be a small amount of money......," the kid shrugged, "and it only paid a few dozen cents for the kids to run errands, but now, with hundreds of dollars involved, they wouldn't allow the kids to compete with them."

Cobott sighed and said, "Who do you think we stand for?"

The kid was a little confused and couldn't understand what Cobot was saying, so Cobot sighed again and said, "Forget it, you go and call the tires."

After a while, the fat tire came in, he was now richer, and his face was ruddy, and he looked like he was eating well, and he said hello to Copote, and said, "Hey, Copote, what's wrong?" What are you looking for me?"

"You've heard about the recent building renovations, right?" Cobot asked.

Tire nodded and said, "Of course, my family seems to be planned in the second phase of the project, and the construction will start in two or three months, and my mother plans to add money to change a two-bedroom house for us, after all, I have also had a girlfriend recently, and if I get married in the future, the house can still be used."

"Did your gang make any moves?" Cobott asked.

Tire recalled: "They seem to be recruiting people like crazy lately, I heard that if you recruit more people, you can get an extra house, and then you can kick these people out, they can control a lot of real estate, and they can make a lot of money renting out."

Suddenly, the tire frowned and said, "Oh no, when it really comes to practice, won't people like me and my mother be kicked out?"

"No, I need to go back and ask my mom to buy more bullets...... No, it's not going to work, it's so unsafe, it's really not going to work, let's spend money to buy a house in the living hell, there's no need to join in the fun......

Cobot sighed and said, "You're in the second phase, that's why the gangsters are crazy

Recruiting people like crazy, I want to get a little more places, but over there is the first phase of the resettlement plan, and the gangs have already started to drive people out."

"The quota over there has been decided, and the gangsters are kicking out all the bullies, controlling the property themselves, renting it out, and using it to make money, how do you think this should be solved?" Cobott asked,

Tire rolled his eyes, his mind was quite nimble, and he said, "If you want to solve this problem completely, you have to find a way on the Wayne Group's side, but it's also difficult, after all, you can't arrange for a person to watch who lives in this house every day......

"As long as you don't see it, the residents will definitely be kicked out, not to mention the children of those children's gangs, even if it is me and my mother, we have guns, bullets, and a lot of money, I'm afraid we have to stay out of the edge for the time being."

Tire sighed and said: "In the final analysis, the interests are moving, the current situation of Living Hell, everyone is waiting for the price of land to rise, as soon as there is a new construction plan, everyone must flock to it, want to buy more houses, even if it can't be sold, rent it out, after all, the rent of Living Hell is also very expensive."

"If you can master ten good houses, you will earn at least a few hundred dollars a month, and if you can have hundreds of houses, the profits in them, even if they are big gangsters, you must be tempted, after all, the logistics industry still has to depend on the sky, and renting a house is a sure profit."

"You're right, the only way to solve this problem is to start with implementation, and I believe that Wayne Group does have a way."

"You say, if the person who came up with this transformation plan had a brilliant way to prevent this from happening, and we knew about it in advance, what should we do now?" Cobot asked.

Tire frowned, thought carefully for a while, and said: "Those gangsters on the site of the first phase of the renovation plan are kicking people like crazy, driving out the children's gang, and expelling the reserve army in their own gangs, and when it is really time to hand over the houses, they will find that they can't get the houses that have been determined, and they will definitely be very dissatisfied."

"But they don't seem to have much to do with the Wayne Group, after all, these are all small gangsters, and they can't even see the top of the Wayne Group."

"If the Wayne Group has a way to let the original owners of those houses that have been determined to live in, then they will definitely spread their anger on the heads of these original owners, and the two parties will definitely have conflicts."

"However, if they kick out all the members of their own gang, they may not be able to have an absolute advantage, and it is more likely that the two sides are evenly matched."

Although Tire has not learned any theoretical knowledge, he, like all the children in Gotham, has been mixing here since he was a child, and he also has a very powerful mother, his mother has a gas station, and she runs it by herself, and does not rely on gangsters, which is enough to see how powerful she is.

He said: "The original owners of these rooms must be dissatisfied with the gangsters who kicked them out, and the gangsters are also dissatisfied with them, and the contradictions between the two cannot be reconciled at all, and the time will definitely be full of storms in the city."

"At this time, it is very important which side the children's gang is on......" Tire suddenly said as if he suddenly realized, "The gangs will gradually split into several petals, and if they want to have an advantage here, they will have to rely on these familiar children, and we can help the children there in advance......

"If that's the case, after the completion of the project, the Gotham Kids may be more closely connected, rather than working separately like they are now."

Copote shook his head and said, "It's not more than that, when you were a child, you should have been in contact with those members of the Children's Gang, and they were all assigned to a room, but do you think they would live in one room alone?" Or is it that a few people are crammed into one room and then rent out the other houses to make money?"

"Although I'm not a member of the Kids' Gang, I think they will make do with it and rent out some of their members' houses, so that the living conditions will improve and the money will be earned."

Tire shrugged his shoulders and said, "Although I don't understand it a little, they are still quite righteous, and they would rather wronged themselves than buy food for the children in the gang, so they will definitely choose to earn money."

。」

"The single rooms that the children are assigned to are actually the best ones to rent." "The vast majority of Gotham residents don't have much need for a living room, and having a bed and a window is good, so there's no need to pay extra to rent a one-bedroom house......

"If we don't intervene, the gangsters will definitely interfere with who they rent the house to, and maybe they will take a cut of it, but we can do it......" Copote tapped his finger on the table, "to unite all the children and no longer be exploited by the gangs......

"And once they can earn rent and have some spare money, we can encourage them to go to school, like the school that lives in hell, throwing some children into it, and having a special teacher take them to learn and play."

"And once you go to school, the school has dormitories, so it will vacate more rooms for renting out, and you can earn more money, maybe those older children can also go on the normal path of education."

Tire nodded and said, "It's a good wish, but the only question is, how can Wayne Group guarantee that everyone lives in their own house? The gangsters are holding guns and blocking the door, who dares not to come out?"

Cobot smiled and said, "You are underestimating the technical means of the Wayne Group, or in two months, the first building of the first phase of the renovation project will be completely completed, and when the time comes, you can see who can live in it."

The tire scratched his head and said, "If that's the case, it's okay, no one can rob anyone's house, but we are at ease."

"Actually, don't families like me and my mother just ask for peace of mind? If the gangsters are good to us, then it's okay to pay some protection money, and if the Wayne Group can really make a house like this, we can give them a little protection money, and it's the same."

"Or maybe if he doesn't let us pay, we don't think it's right." Tire shook his head and said, "My mother often said that there is no such thing as a free lunch, and if he collects money, he will always protect us, and if he doesn't take a penny, he will definitely have to make us pay another price."

"Perhaps, now he doesn't want money." Cobott turned his head to look out the window and said, "Perhaps, the day of eternal security and freedom that you speak of will come eventually, but when that day comes, there may be something else to be sacrificed."
