Chapter 216 Profit Harvesting Winner
Murakami's business scope is relatively narrow. Basically, he collects protection fees and is responsible for some escort and killing tasks.
Then there are several pubs and nightclubs of his own, and the place where Qiao Ke is now is one of them.
In addition, Murakami also owns several hospitals. This is mainly because the ninja members of his hand may be injured in the battle. It is much more convenient to have his own hospital for treatment.
Moreover, the speed at which hospitals make money is not slower than his collection of protection fees, so he used various means to set up several hospitals.
In this way, in normal times, besides working, his little brothers can also go to his own farm to spend in their spare time. If they are sick or injured, they all go to the hospital under his control to see a doctor.
He can still get some money back a little bit, at most it is a little bit more discounted.
From this point, Qiao Ke knew that Murakami was quite smart, but the layout was a little smaller.
But it seems that most of Murakami's business can be regarded as legal, which is much better than selling washing powder, human organs, human trafficking... these heinous behaviors.
But anyway, it's all cheap for Joko now.
The same is true for Suowanda, the white cap, except that he played a bigger role. He was a warlord in Africa, and he even occupied a few territories to bully men and women.
Then there is his small business here in New York, human trafficking, control and sexual slavery of women, and trading of human organs.
They were all the most insane and outrageous activities, but at the same time, his subordinates had the lowest loyalty.
Yoshioka Shin also said that they don't have to worry about the retaliation of the other party's remnant forces at all, because even after they learn of Suowanda's death, they will definitely fight, and it is too late to fight for the other party's territory and inheritance.
Then there is the blogger who was killed by Qiao Ke himself. This guy took the upper-level route, and cultivated his loyal younger brother by looking for those lonely and indifferent children.
Then he will select a small number of the most outstanding and talented people, give them higher education, and then send them to various groups or government departments to collect various intelligence information.
Whether it's the gossip of various upper-class celebrities in the circle or other confidential information, he can get a lot of benefits, no matter how bad he is, he can also play blackmail, which is quite in line with his feminine personality.
It’s just that Qiao Ke still thinks it’s very unrealistic. Let’s not talk about how long the cycle of this plan is, and how huge the various investments in the early stage are.
Do you really think it is a government spy agency that can carry out this kind of long-term spy training?
Let’s just talk about the trained geniuses, after they have successfully entered various large groups or government departments, how many of them would still be willing to have a gangster boss pointing out their backs?
Can being a gangster have a decent life like theirs now?The first thing that must have come to mind is how to hide or whitewash one's identity, and how to quietly kill Botu.
Even his favorite little apprentice, Colleen Wen, was still a righteous hero after a long time, and this guy's failure was evident.
Finally, Alexandra, the titular hand leader who was stabbed to death by Erica.
Alexandra probably claims to be the boss of the Hand, so her business scope is relatively wide, and she has a little bit of everything, and she is not afraid of overlapping with other people's business.
And usually very domineering, always grabbing business.
But what Qiao Ke cares more about is one of her ally Wilson Fisk, known as Jin Bin's underworld boss!
Alexandra and Kim have formed a small alliance, but it is very easy for Joko to get in now, because when the alliance was first formed, Mrs. Gao and Murakami's apprentice Yoshioka Nobuo existed as middlemen.
If you want to completely control the Hand Association and eliminate all hidden dangers, Qiao Ke knows that the time is not yet ripe, and it is absolutely impossible!
After roughly clearing up the overall current situation and thinking, Qiao Ke also relaxed a little.
He turned to look at Colleen Wen who was bored by his side. In fact, he really didn't understand why the other party chose to join him in the first place.
Is it possible that I was born with the aura of the protagonist, and naturally attracted the other party to come closer?
"Korin, can you tell me why you made the decision to betray the blogger and support me?"
Colleen Wenyan, who was sipping sake with Qiao Ke, stopped her movements slightly: "Of course it is for my own conscience, you don't know, I have been deceived by him for so many years, and I always think that what I do is the right thing!"
"As a result, one day, I suddenly realized that everything was similar, and that what I did was all outrageous things. That kind of guilt... I really can't pass the test of my conscience and condemnation!"
When Colleen Wen looked up, she saw Qiao Ke quietly listening to herself, um, did the other party resonate with her?
"Besides, I'm used to life in the Hand. Without the support of the Hand, I don't know where to go for the time being." Colleen Wen said honestly, but also very lonely.
Although Botu trained her, in fact, for her, he just wanted to use her.
After all, for the Hand, they only need tools to kill for them.
Although Qiao Ke didn't know the specific thoughts of the other party, he could still roughly understand them through the various performances in the previous battles.
So he just nodded: "I see, thank you very much for making such a choice, and I believe I will prove to you soon that killing can also be a way of exercising justice."
Although Qiao Ke himself doesn't care much about justice and injustice, but he knows that this group of superheroes still eats it, so he doesn't care to say a few more words.
Qiao Ke then changed his voice: "However, I want to ask you, what do you think of the Punisher?"
"Simple, efficient, fast, and deadly...a very good killer." Colleen Wen made no secret of her admiration and compliments for the Punisher.
However, she herself does not like to kill, but sometimes it is the best way to exercise justice.
Qiao Ke chuckled and was very interested in Colleen Wen's reaction.
But the four words that Ji Gangxin used to describe the punisher to Colleen Wen on the side are also very suitable for him.
The two of them are very similar people, but they kill people in different ways. One is accustomed to using various heavy firepower and hot weapons, while the other is accustomed to using cold weapons.
In contrast, the Daredevil, who inherited the arrogance and stupidity of the old man, but has little ability of his own, is really not worthy of the Punisher's powerful crime fighting.
However, Qiao Ke felt that Erica the Phantom Ninja, Colleen Wen, the daughter of the dragon, Jessica Jones, the treasure girl, and Cindy Moon, the spider girl...
