Chapter 168: Restraint
When Artimu killed the Shamans, Glitter himself was not present.
But that didn't stop him from knowing about Adimu's cruelty.
In fact, the events of that day have long been circulated through various channels.
On that day, Yadimu rushed to the gathering place of the Shaman gang and killed the previous leader of the Shaman gang in front of everyone inside.
This scene is murderous just thinking about it.
And now, such a murderous figure is holding his child's hand, and he looks extremely gentle.
How dare Gretel believe it?
However, compared to him, the feeling of his relatives at home is good.
The children circled around Artimu, and seemed very happy with Artim's arrival, but in a short time they became acquainted with Artim, an outsider.
Even Mona has a great affection for Yadimu and his party.
Not only because of the gentleness and politeness he seemed, but also because of the candy he threw at the children.
In this thought, candy is not an ordinary thing, but a precious thing.
Even if it was just the candy in Artimu's hand, it was something that the Gretel family couldn't usually eat.
No matter what time it is, it is easy for people to win favor with those who are generous.
That's for sure.
"That's right."
After chatting for a while, Artimu looked at Grett in front of him as if he had thought of something serious: "I heard from others that you were a member of the former security team?"
[To tell the truth, I've been using @
Gold.
According to Lima City's spending power, this is already a lot of money, which can support the expenses of Gretel's family for a long time.
And listening to what Yadimu meant before, this money is not only this time, but every month in the future?
It was five gold coins in a month, and sixty in that year.......
Thinking of this, even Gretel couldn't help but feel a little inexplicable in his heart.
Feeding a family isn't that simple.
In the past, Gretel mixed in the Shaman Gang, and he was only barely fed.
In order to support his children, he also went out from time to time to do some other chores and do some part-time jobs to survive.
Life can be said to have been quite hard.
And with this money fixed every month, he won't have to work so hard in the future, and he only needs to do one thing.
This made him feel relaxed, and a better life in the future seemed to beckon him.
To Artimu, he couldn't help but be grateful.
And on the other side.
Artim walked out of the slums.
He didn't care about Gretel's affairs.
He didn't have the intention of exploring Gretel's past, and he didn't even have the heart to ask about it.
This is a bit different from what others think.
But Yatemu's idea was actually quite simple.
Whatever the reason why Gretel left the so-called vigilante in the past, it is true that he is living a deplorable life now.
And Artimus can bring about a change in him, allowing him to live a good life with his wife and children.
That's enough.
On the one hand, he is destitute and poor, and on the other hand, he has a rich and decent life, even a normal person knows how to choose.
Of course, for its own sake, Artimu didn't take Gretel to heart.
After all, this is just an ordinary person, and if there is any abnormality in the future, it is not too late to fix it when the time comes.
It's just a small issue.
Compared to this problem, there are other aspects of the problem that are more serious.
"There must be a lot of people who are speaking ill of me behind my back."
Yadimu looked at the person in front of him and said with a smile.
The people on the side hurriedly lowered their heads, not daring to reply at all.
After all, the Shamans are a gangster, and their main business in the past was some black industry, such as theft, and even opening brothels.
All kinds of bad things are done.
When Artimus came up, he canceled most of the things, and strictly forbade the members to do those bad things without permission.
This will naturally cause many people to be dissatisfied.
Of course, there are corresponding compensation measures. ….
In the past, the vast majority of the people in the Shaman Gang had no regular income.
They joined the Shaman Gang only to seek refuge from the Shaman Gang itself, but they usually don't get much benefit.
Most of these people usually make a living from theft and robbery.
Under normal circumstances, they will give some of what they get to the Shamans, and at the same time use the protection of the Shamans.
So that they can survive.
When Artimus first entered the city of Lima, the two he encountered fell into this category.
Now that Artimu has canceled this part of the event as soon as he comes in, he naturally has to give them some necessary supplements.
Otherwise, these people will have no way to survive at all.
If they are not allowed to steal and rob, then they must find a new way.
Yadimu's approach was to contain this part and let them train intensively, which was equivalent to giving them a formal job and paying them a fixed salary.
It's like fixing them down, and they're no longer flowing around like they used to.
For this decision, most people are:
Delighted.
After all, it's better to have a stable job than to be a thief yourself.
But there are naturally people who are not satisfied, and there are quite a few of them.
For these people, Yadimu's approach was to let them leave on their own, and by the way, they were given a severance pay.
He felt that this was already good, but it was clear that there would still be people who would be dissatisfied.
That's where an iron fist comes in.
"Go back and send someone to tell Sailo and let him send someone over to deal with it."
Yadimu didn't care about these things, just said a word, and walked directly back to his residence.
Walking back to the accommodation, there were already people waiting inside.
"Chief, all the ledgers are here."
Looking at the figure of Yadimu, the person in front of him spoke respectfully.
Artimu nodded, then walked forward on his own, picked up a ledger and looked at it.
It is said that it is a ledger, but in fact it is not complete, it can only be said to be some approximate records.
A considerable part of it was Yadimu who called the operators from various places and asked them to write it.
Not surprisingly, these figures are quite rudimentary, but through these things, you can still get a general idea of the general situation of these industries.
The current industry of the Shaman Gang can be divided into three categories.
One is the nearby streets, which are considered their fixed land, and can usually charge a considerable conservation fee.
In addition, there are some shops that are directly operated, and the categories they operate are also very simple, basically brothels, taverns and the like.
Then there were some stolen goods from other people.
According to the rules, the things that the members of the Shaman Gang get in the vicinity are also to be divided by the Shaman Gang, and by the way, they will get rid of it with the help of the relationship of the entire gang.
Of course, this part of the income disappeared after Yatimu came to power, and it has been canceled by Yatimu.
However, just the other two items bring a considerable amount of income every month, with about 700 gold coins coming into the account every month.
After the reform of Yatimu, the system of the Shaman Gang has now changed, and there are many more people who need to be paid. ….
For example, the captains, as well as leaders like Sailo and Gretel, the amount they need to be paid in a month is not a small amount.
But even so, after the income of everyone is distributed, there is still a lot of money left.
Artimu probably did the math.
Even if he deducts his current expenses, just the operating income of these industries, he can still leave three or four hundred gold coins every month.
That's a lot of money.
Gangsters make so much money?
The thought crossed his mind.
He didn't think that just a small Shaman gang could have this level of income.
Of course, that's just how much it seems.
In the past, this income of the Shaman Gang had to be divided among many people, except for the leaders above, and all the leaders had to share it.
Even the remaining profits need to spend a considerable part of the operation of other aspects, and the actual rest is far less than it seems.
Yadimu thinks it's pretty good now, mainly because he has solved the original leader and several leaders, and there is no shareholder who wants a share, and all the money belongs to his own car buyers, so it naturally seems to be more.
But that's not the time to be satisfied.
The Sharman Gang has a lot of black industries.
Some of them were brothels or the like, and Artimu wasn't ready to shut them down.
After all, this kind of thing is also a rigid need to some extent.
Even if he closes these places, it won't be long before someone else comes to open them.
The problem is still not solved.
Besides, it's easy to shut down these places, but it's a serious question of how those people should be arranged in the future.
Therefore, Yadimu's attitude towards brothels can be kept, but after that, he should try to be strictly guarded so that he can become more regular.
If nothing else, at least the kind of human trafficking and persecution of normal women cannot happen again.
As for industries such as taverns, the profitability is not very good, and it is easy to involve energy when the place is large.
After that, Yadimu plans to slowly spin off this part of the business, or directly integrate it and hand it over to others to specialize in management.
In addition to these businesses, the biggest business of the Shaman Gang is actually finance, which is simply usury.
By lending money to past merchants, charging high interest, and then guaranteeing the recovery of the loan through the force in hand, this is the most profitable business of the Shaman Gang at the moment.
From the current account book, it can be known that the money that the Shaman Gang put outside before alone is enough for tens of thousands of gold coins.
This part of the business, like the brothel, is also not necessary to be cut, but it is also necessary to keep a strict watch.
Otherwise, it's easy to get into something.
In addition to these, Adim is also ready to develop some new businesses.
"Have you found the factory you were looking for before?"
Artimus looked at the man in front of him, and then spoke.
"It's almost."
The person in front of him nodded respectfully, and then said, "Chief, you can go over and have a look at any time."
"Okay."
Artimus nodded, then got up.
He mounted a horse and came out of the city.
There, at the moment, there is already smoke burning, in which workers are active.
"Mr. Deley."
The person in charge walked out and looked at Artimu with some fear, "The thing is ready."
"Mr. Ratch, don't be so afraid."
Artimus looked at the man in front of him and smiled casually, "We're partners, aren't we?"
"Yes..... Yes."
Ruche smiled reluctantly, then nodded.
The Raqi in front of him was not a subordinate of Yadimu, but a partner of the original Shaman Gang.
Of course, it may be a bit reluctant to say that it is a partner, and strictly speaking it should be considered a debtor.
In order to expand his business, Raki received a large sum of money from the Shaman Gang, about 1,000 gold coins.
But then, due to the influence of the external environment, his business soon became unsuccessful, and he was naturally unable to repay the loan of the Shaman Gang.
According to the past practice of the Shaman Gang, he said that if he would not be hacked to death, he was afraid that life would be worse than death in the future, and the end would be bleak.
But after Yadimu learned the news, he let the people around him let him go and chose to leave his venue.
