Chapter 132 Drug Trading Scene
Hearing Matt's questioning, Qiao Ke was not angry.
Of course he knew why Matt reacted so violently. The words "incapable and furious" were enough to explain his current psychology.
Qiao Ke smiled and patiently explained: "Of course it is not by force. Force can save Hell's Kitchen for a while, but it cannot save Hell's Kitchen for the rest of its life."
"Why is Hell's Kitchen so chaotic? In the final analysis, it's because of poverty here! It's backward here!"
"It's also in Manhattan, why isn't the place where you study in chaos chaotic? How isn't the neighborhood near the Stark Industrial Building chaotic?"
"Because there are rich people living in those places, they can pay taxes on time. In order to protect their benefactors, the New York City government has made great efforts to maintain the stability there and promote the development there."
This time Matt bowed his head and remained silent.
Because he knows that what Joko said is true, that poverty is indeed the root of the chaos in Hell's Kitchen.
Seeing that Matt didn't speak, Qiao Ke stopped himself and gave Matt some time to think.
After a long time, Matt raised his head, "stared" at Joko and asked, "How can you say that you can bring hope to Hell's Kitchen? Do you have the ability to make this place rich?"
"Young man, don't speak so aggressively. Since I dare to say it, of course I have a feasible plan."
Qiao Ke comforted Matt first, and then said: "How can Hell's Kitchen become rich?"
Matt shook his head blankly, because he didn't even know what Joko was trying to express.
"Of course it is to attract rich people! If you want to completely change the status quo of Hell's Kitchen and make Hell's Kitchen rich, you must attract rich people to Hell's Kitchen." Qiao Ke said in a natural tone.
"As for how to attract rich people, it will come back to the Pan American express company I want to open."
"You know that a large part of the richest people in the Chinese Empire came from e-commerce and courier companies. I believe they will be successful in the United States as well."
"When my company starts up, it will be a big hit, and your supermarket chain will be banned directly with e-commerce and express delivery!"
"At that time, my company will not only solve a large number of employment problems for Hell's Kitchen, but also attract many wealthy people to invest in my company."
"In this way, rich people will come, the surrounding economy will be stimulated, and the residents of Hell's Kitchen will have more opportunities to make money."
"By then, banks, shopping malls, schools, hospitals, these infrastructures will spring up like mushrooms one by one."
"Can you imagine that Hell's Kitchen will not be rich by then?"
Matt was taken aback by Joko, but he didn't just blindly believe in Joko.
After thinking for a long time, he asked a key question: "I admit that you are very good at drawing cakes. Everything you describe is indeed reasonable and possible."
"However, painting cakes can't satisfy your hunger, it's just a beautiful vision you imagined with added oil and vinegar. Your description is too exaggerated, so exaggerated that I can't believe it."
Boom boom boom!
While the two were talking, there was a loud knock on the door, and the secretary Karen Peggy got up to open the door.
I saw a well-mannered man in his 30s in a suit and leather shoes standing outside the door.
"Hello, hello, my James Wesley, I have a lawsuit in my hand and I want to entrust your law firm to handle it for me. I wonder if your lawyer is here today?" James Wesley stretched out his hand to Karen Peggy, introduced himself quickly, and explained the purpose of his visit.
Karen Peggy was very happy to see a business visit. She shook hands with James Wesley, nodded immediately and said, "Yes, yes, yes... Both of our lawyers are here today. Please come in, Mr. Wesley."
Karen Page lets James Wesley in, and Matt Murdock immediately gets up and abandons Joko to greet the new customer.
Qiao Ke felt slightly embarrassed, so he had to get up and leave.
When he walked out, he heard James Wesley say to Matt Murdoch: "We have a gang member, Mr. John Healy, who has been accused of murder. I want to ask Mr. Matt to help him defend his crimes in a public trial..."
After Qiao Ke came out of Daredevil's law firm, he went straight back to Erica's residence.
This hell's kitchen basically has nothing to do during the day, and all the main activities are carried out at night.
Jingle Bell!
In the evening, Erica's phone rang. It was Wilson Fisk's gangster strategist and friend and confidant James Wesley.
I just heard James Wesley say to Erica on the phone: "Tonight, Mrs. Gao of the Hand will join us with the Mexican gang to trade heroin raw materials on the Mexican territory. What the boss means is that I hope you can lead the brothers to complete this huge drug deal. I don't know what you mean?"
"I'm not healed from an injury, and I can't move easily. How can I take on this important task tonight? I'd better ask Boss Jin to appoint someone else," Erica immediately refused.
"That's fine, let Bullseye take on this important role tonight, and let him do everything," James Wesley was quite straightforward, and immediately made a decision.
The situation in Hell's Kitchen is complicated, but the biggest force is the union of the Hand led by Alexandra and the gang led by Kim Bin.
And Jin Bin actually controls all the big and small gangs behind the scenes, doing things for them, making money for them, and conducting various illegal and criminal activities.
The gangs include the Black Bear Gang under the Russian Mafia, the Japanese Yakuza, the Hong Kong Gang, and the Poisonous Wolf Gang, the Ten Rings Gang, the Black Fist Gang, the Mexican Gang, and the Bigfoot Gang...
Mrs. Gao, one of the Five Fingers of the Hand, controls the Iron Fist's Rand Group, but secretly uses the Rand Group's guise and name to carry out ocean shipping and drug trafficking.
This time, it was the Mexican gang who smuggled a large amount of drug raw materials from Mexico in an attempt to break Mrs. Gao's monopoly on Hell's Kitchen drugs.
As one of the Five Fingers of the Hand, a bigwig, Mrs. Ligao usually doesn't dare to show off too much due to her advanced age (he lived over four hundred years old). She usually keeps a low profile and stays in her lair for a long time.
But tonight was different. The Mexican opened up another channel to deliver a large amount of drugs, breaking her original monopoly on the drug trade. Today she has to get out of her tortoise shell!
At night, Mrs. Gao and Jin joined forces to trade drugs with the Mexican gangsters.
The transaction took place on the territory of the Mexican gang, and this transaction was originally very secretive. The number of people carried by Mrs. Gao and Bullseye under Jin Bin's men was balanced, and it must not be too many.
