When the renovation project was carried out for nearly three months, the first and second phases of the project were nearing completion, and the three overpasses between the first and second phases of the project only needed to complete the final safety test before they could be opened to traffic.

The first and second phases of the project and the construction of the road all use the technology of the bat cave, which means that residents must carry out fingerprint and iris authentication, collect genes at the same time, upload them to the bat cave system, and then only follow the permission system inside the building, and people who have not been certified will not be able to enter the building anyway.

And what's worse is the traffic, these three overpasses use the same certification system, in addition to the certifier, but also the certification of the car, unlicensed, fake cars are all not entered, the driver wants to break into, from under the road out of the defense facilities than the gundam is only a slogan.

The residents here have no special feeling about information collection, and if they put their hand in it for 30 seconds, the car will be unimpeded, and the vast majority of people will admit it after finding that it is impossible to break in.

However, it soon became clear to the Grand Yakuza and the Twelve Families that something was wrong, and that once the neighborhood had the power to refuse entry to the unauthorized, it meant that the gang would no longer be able to control the inhabitants of the area.

If they don't follow the rules, the gang has no way to punish them, as long as they can run home, no one can break in, which is definitely unacceptable to the gang.

For this reason, the leaders of the twelve families approached Bruce again, this time the meeting did not look so gentle, it looked more like a crusade meeting, and as soon as Bruce walked in, he found that the leaders of the gangs below did not look very good.

"Ahem." Bruce cleared his throat and said, "The phone in Wayne Tower has been ringing from last night to this morning, what is the urgency of you? Do you have to look for me these days when I'm busy?"

"Wayne. Don't go around in circles with us, what's going on with that permission recognition system you came up with? Can't my people enter their own territory?"

"You can go in, but you have to certify." Bruce shrugged his shoulders and said, "Did you get them certified?"

"Why not? After the certification, that system of yours said that he was not a resident here, and he was not allowed to enter, and he wanted to go in to collect protection money, but he was beaten out, Wayne! Are you crazy?! Do you want to go against all the gangsters?!" Lawrence slapped the table and stared at Bruce.

"Protection money? Of course they will." Bruce gave an unexpected answer, saying, "No one told them to pay protection money, didn't the staff in the building tell you?" On the 3rd of each month, the protection fee will be collected by the staff, transferred to the unified account, and transferred to your bank card, haven't you received it?"

The leaders of the twelve families sitting in the front row were stunned for a moment, and one of them walked out and went to the living room next to him to make a call, and after saying a few words to the other end of the phone, he came back with a dark face and said, "It is true that there is an unknown income in the account, but it is completely inconsistent with the amount of protection money we collected before."

"Because I'm in the middle of the spread." Bruce crossed his arms and said, "You don't think I'm really doing charity, do you? The first and second phases of the project are completed, do you know how much money I invested? I'm a businessman, and I need a profit in addition to earning back my costs."

"But you can't take away our protection money either!" Lawrence shouted, "You should go and ask them!" What does it have to do with us to ask for more protection money from those who pay it?!"

"How do you know I didn't ask them for more?" Bruce raised an eyebrow and said, "Not only did I raise the rent, but I also asked them to pay an extra 20% of the protection fee, and at the same time deducted 20% of your protection fee, which is recovering the cost."

"Don't forget, this defense system I designed can not only stop those who want to enter with bad intentions, but also prevent thieves, explosions, and even ***, drunkenness, and addicts......

"In the building built by the Wayne Group, all the prostitutes, drunks and poisonous ghosts, as long as they dare to make trouble in the corridor, there will be robots to corona them, and as long as anyone dares to fight, there will be armed staff to separate them."

"You don't think you don't have to pay a price to maintain this safe and stable life, do you?" Bruce asked rhetorically.

"But me

They didn't let you ......."

"Then you didn't object!" Bruce knocked on the table and said, "You said that it is forbidden to drink excessively, at least the young and middle-aged thugs recruited will be healthier and will not die drunk in a bar just after a sum of money......

"It's also what you say, if you put an end to ***, you won't have to get sick, you don't know who to infect, and you have to be afraid of asking people to ask questions......

"In the same way, you said that it is good to take less medicine, so that you can walk every day and shake, the gun cannot be held steadily, and the aim is not accurate when the fire is fired, and the bullets are wasted......

"Or do you say, it is better to prevent the fight, so that today this gang beats that gang and the gang will make trouble with you, and tomorrow this gang will beat the other gang and make trouble with you......

Bruce spread his hands and said, "I've done it perfectly, in the future, there will be no drunks, no prostitutes, no addicts in these residential buildings, everyone will live safely, the perfect gangster reserve."

"You ......" Lawrence choked for a moment, and then he felt a little weak, because what Bruce said was indeed what they had discussed and agreed on earlier.

At the beginning, when Bruce told them about the plan, he had already emphasized what the situation would be in these buildings in the future, and at the beginning, the leaders of the twelve families praised these defensive measures.

In fact, the advantage of the gangster society is that the blood is changed quickly, but the disadvantage is also that the blood is changed quickly, everyone is enthusiastic, and it is inevitable that there will be one mess after another.

Just like the original Spencer family, thankless and easy to cause conflicts within the family, in the long run, the leaders of the twelve families also hate these messy cases, and hope that the people below can stay honest and don't make trouble for them.

Human beings are always greedy, and they hope that people who can provide benefits for themselves will be like hungry wolves when they go out to fight, biting off a few pieces of meat from the opposite side, and taking them home, and hoping that they are obedient pet dogs, just stay in the cage if they are fine, and don't cause trouble.

It's better to be like an ATM, spit out money when you want to spit out, and stay honest when you don't.

Therefore, they didn't take these problems mentioned by Wayne seriously at all, but praised each other, thinking that Wayne could help them solve a lot of troubles, and with fewer mediation cases, they could have more time to be drunk.

Lawrence clenched his hands into fists, slammed them on the table, and said, "Listen, Wayne, no matter what, you can't interfere with where we're going, our territory is ours, and only we have the final say on our territory!"

Bruce nodded again and said, "Yes, your territory is up to you, and I didn't say no, it's just that you can't infringe on my private assets, otherwise I have the right to defend myself."

"Alright, Lawrence." One of the older Twelve Clan Leaders said, "And Mr. Wayne, don't be angry, we're not here to be angry, I think we should sit down and have a good talk."

Lawrence tilted his head to the side, Bruce nodded, and he said, "At that time, I asked you if you wanted to invest, and you said no, I can do it myself, but after I came by myself, isn't this my own asset?"

"You can't just spend money and ask for permission, if there is such a good thing in the world, won't the Wayne Group rule the world long ago?"

"So. Do you want money?" The older leader asked, looking at Bruce.

"It's not that I want money." Bruce repeated, "You want permission, so you can only get it by investing in me."

"Otherwise, you can try to use violent means, as long as you can blow up the building, it will be fine, but I have to warn you that the defense system is automatic, not controlled by me, and although it will not kill people, it will also use aggressive means to subdue dangerous elements."

"As for energy and ammunition, you don't have to worry, all weapons in the defense system use energy, no physical bullets, and the energy is a reaction newly developed by me

The furnace is offered, almost unlimited."

"Bruce Wayne! You have deceived too much!" Lawrence raised his voice.

"As I said, there is room for negotiation in this matter, this is only the first and second phases of the project, and there are dozens or even hundreds of phases in the future, if you have to intervene, then invest."

Bruce shrugged his shoulders, remembering what Schiller had told him before, so he put on a very typical capitalist face, and said, "I said it, I am a businessman, and I have only one purpose, and that is to make money."

"I will choose to renovate Gotham City in order to make better money, and for this, I have to control them first so that they can help me make money, so I am willing to invest at any cost to improve the construction and transportation."

"If you want to make this money, you can't not invest a penny, so why should I give you the money I earn?"

"What kind of investment do you receive?" The older leader asked, apparently seeing the staggering profits behind Bruce's makeover.

To put it bluntly, no one else could have known that Bruce really wanted to benefit humanity, and they wouldn't have imagined that this playboy was such a great person.

They could only think that Bruce would have to recoup an amazing return on his investment so much, and then think about his plan......

It's easy to find out that Wayne plans to kidnap the whole city, and as long as everyone lives in his house and uses his road, then he can only be at his mercy, and he has to pay as much as he wants.

How much money will the residents of Gotham City be able to squeeze out? As long as he thought about it, even the members of the twelve families who were not short of money felt hot in their hearts.

Gotham is much richer than some small countries, and the wealth that can be exploited by being a powerful leader in a small country is unimaginable.

If you only think of this as an investment, should you invest in it or not?

The leaders of all the clans glanced at each other, and Bruce glanced at the whole scene and said at the right time:

"You can think about it, the Wayne Group is waiting for you to visit at any time."
