Knight's Infinite Journey - Chapter 169 Constraints
When Yadimu killed the Sharman gang, Grete himself was not present.
But this did not affect his knowledge of Yadimu’s cruelty.
In fact, what happened on that day has already been spread through various channels.
On that day, Yadimu rushed to the gathering place of the Sharman Gang openly and killed the previous leader of the Sharman Gang in front of everyone inside.
Gretel felt cruel just thinking about this scene.
But now, such a ferocious figure is holding his child’s hand, looking extremely gentle.
How dare Gretel believe it?
But compared to him, the feeling of his relatives at home is pretty good.
The children circled around Yadimu, seemingly very happy with Yadimu’s arrival, and they had become familiar with Yadimu, an outsider, in just a short period of time.
Even Mona has a great impression of Yadimu and his party.
Not only because Yadimu looked quite gentle and polite, but also because of the candies he threw to the children.
In this thought, candy is not an ordinary thing, but a very precious thing.
Even if it was just the candies in Yadimu’s hand, they were something that the Gretel family could not usually eat.
No matter when, people who are generous are easy to win people’s favor.
Definitely.
“correct.”
After chatting for a while, Yadimu looked at Gretel in front of him as if he had thought of something serious: “I heard others say that you were a member of the security team before?”
“yes.”
Upon hearing this, Gretel suddenly became nervous.
There was a bitterness in his heart, and he had probably guessed why Yadimu came here this time.
If nothing else, his past identity aroused suspicion among the new leader, so he deliberately came to warn him.
That’s how it used to be.
His ability is obviously much better than others, but he was suppressed in the previous Shaman Gang and could only make ends meet.
Now that the leader has been replaced, the changes have been brought about with great difficulty, but it looks like it is going back to the past.
But what Yadimu said surprised him.
“That’s just right.”
Yadimu looked up at Gretel, seeming to see what he was thinking. He couldn’t help but smile, and then said, “I recently set up a training camp, and there happens to be a lack of suitable instructors.”
“Grete, since you have had such experience in the past, how about you come over and serve as an instructor?”
“You can also help me with something by the way.”
As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned.
This is especially true of Gretel.
He originally thought that Yadimu would come to suppress and warn him after knowing his past identity, but he didn’t expect that it was an appointment.
This is somewhat unexpected.
It wasn’t until Mona on the side pushed him that he quickly responded: “Yes, I will definitely do this job well.”
“If that’s the case, then I’m relieved.”
Atimu smiled, then took out a money bag and placed it in front of Gretel. ,
“This is your first month’s salary. After that, you can find a chance to change your place to live.”
He looked at Grete and the children in front of him and said sincerely: “This place is really not very safe.”
“yes.”
Grete nodded quickly behind him.
Yadimu didn’t say anything, just turned around and left.
After he left, Mona picked up the money bag and took out the contents.
“Honey, it’s a gold coin!”
There was a burst of exclamation.
The money bag contained five gold coins.
According to the consumption power of Lima City, this is already a considerable amount of money, which can support the Gretel family’s expenses for a long time.
And from what Yadimu said before, this money is not just for this time, but every month in the future?
A month is five gold coins, and a year is sixty.
Thinking of this, even Gretel couldn’t help but feel a little inexplicable.
Feeding a family is not easy.
In the past, Grete hung out in the Sharman Gang, barely making ends meet.
In order to support his children, he would go out to do other chores from time to time and work part-time jobs to survive.
Life can be said to be quite hard.
And with this fixed amount of money every month, he won’t have to work so hard in the future. He only needs to do one thing specifically.
This made him feel relaxed, and a better life in the future seemed to be beckoning to him.
He couldn’t help but start to feel truly grateful to Yadimu.
And on the other side.
Yadimu emerged from the ghetto.
He didn’t care about Gretel.
He had no intention of exploring Gretel’s past, and he didn’t even have the intention to ask.
This is quite different from what others think.
But Yadimu’s idea is actually very simple.
Regardless of the reason why Gretel left the so-called security team in the past, it is true that he is living in such a miserable state now.
And Yadimu can bring changes to him and allow him, his wife and children to live a good life.
that’s enough.
On the one hand, there is poverty and poverty, on the other hand, there is a wealthy and decent life. Even a normal person knows how to choose.
Of course, just by itself, Yadimu didn’t take Gretel to heart.
After all, this is just an ordinary person. If there is any abnormality in the future, it will not be too late to solve it when the time comes.
This is just a small problem.
Compared with this problem, other problems are more serious.
“There must be a lot of people saying bad things about me behind my back now.”
Yadimu looked at the person in front of him, smiled and said.
The people on the side quickly lowered their heads, not daring to reply at all.
After all, the Sharman Gang is a gang, and its main business in the past was black industries, such as stealing and even opening brothels.
He did all sorts of bad things.
After Yadimu came up, he canceled most of the things and strictly prohibited members from doing anything bad without permission.
This will naturally cause dissatisfaction among many people.
Of course, there are corresponding compensation measures.
In the past, most of the people in the Shaman Gang had no fixed income.
They join the Sharman Gang just to seek protection from the Sharman Gang itself, but they usually don’t get much benefit.
Most of these people make a living by stealing and robbing.
Under normal circumstances, they will divide some of the things they get and hand them over to the Sharman Gang, and at the same time use the protection of the Sharman Gang.
So they can survive.
When Yadimu first entered the city of Lima, the two he met fell into this category.
Now that Yadimu had canceled this part of the activity as soon as he came in, he naturally had to give them some necessary supplements.
Otherwise, these people will have no chance of survival at all.
If they are not allowed to steal and rob, they must find a new way.
Yadimu’s approach is to contain these people and let them train intensively, which is equivalent to giving them a formal job and paying them a fixed salary.
This is equivalent to fixing them and no longer wandering around like before.
Most people are happy with this decision.
After all, it is better to have a stable job than to be a thief.
But of course there are also people who are dissatisfied, and there are quite a few of them.
For these people, Yadimu’s approach is to let them leave on their own and give them a severance package.
He felt that this was pretty good, but obviously, some people would still feel dissatisfied after all.
This requires an iron fist.
“Send someone to tell Sailuo later and let him send someone to deal with it.”
Yadimu didn’t pay much attention to these things. He just explained them casually and walked directly back to his residence.
When I walked back to my residence, someone was already waiting inside.
“Chief, all the ledgers are here.”
Looking at Yadimu’s figure, the person in front spoke respectfully.
Yadimu nodded, then walked forward by himself, picked up a ledger and started reading.
It is said to be an account book, but in fact it is not complete. It can only be said to be some rough records.
A considerable part of the content was written by Yadimu by calling in operators from various places and asking them to write it down.
Not surprisingly, these data are quite rudimentary, but through these things, we can still get a rough idea of the general situation of these industries.
The current industry of Shaman Gang can be divided into three major categories.
The first category is the nearby streets, which are considered their fixed territory, and they can usually collect a considerable amount of protection fees.
In addition, there are some shops that are directly operated, and the categories they operate are also very simple, basically brothels, pubs and the like.
In addition, there are some stolen goods sent by others.
According to the rules, whatever the members of the Sharman Gang get nearby will be divided into the Sharman Gang, and they will be disposed of by leveraging the connections of the entire gang.
Of course, this part of the income disappeared after Yadimu came to power and has been canceled by Yadimu.
However, only the other two items bring considerable monthly income, with about 700 gold coins being recorded every month.
After Yadimu’s improvements, the Sharman Gang’s system has now changed, and there are many more people who need to be paid.
For example, for those captains and leaders like Cero and Gretel, the monthly remuneration they need to pay is not a small number.
But even so, after everyone’s income is distributed, there is still a lot of money left.
Yadimu probably figured it out.
Even after deducting his current expenses, just the operating income from these industries can still leave three to four hundred gold coins every month.
This is already a considerable number.
Do gangsters make so much money?
This thought flashed through Yadimu’s mind.
He didn’t expect that just a small Shaman Gang could have such a level of income.
Of course, this just seems like a lot.
In the past, the income of the Sharman Gang needed to be divided among many people. In addition to the leader above, all the leaders had to share it.
Even the remaining profits will need to be spent on operating other aspects, and the actual amount left is far less than it seems.
Yadimu feels pretty good now. The main reason is that he has solved all the original leaders and several leaders. There are no shareholders who want a piece of the share. All the money belongs to him and the car buyers want to use it. Naturally, it seems too much. .
But this is not the time to be satisfied yet.
There are many black industries under the Shaman gang.
Some of them are similar to brothels, but Yadimu is not ready to close them down.
After all, this kind of thing is also a necessity to a certain extent.
Even if he closes these places, it won’t be long before someone else opens them.
The problem is still not solved.
Moreover, it is easy to close these places, but how to deal with the people in them afterwards is another serious problem.
Therefore, Yadimu’s attitude towards industries such as brothels can be retained, but he must try to strictly monitor them in the future to make them more formal.
Apart from anything else, at least the human trafficking and persecution of normal women cannot happen again.
As for industries such as taverns, the profitability is not very good, and once the place becomes large, it will easily involve energy.
Yadimu will later plan to slowly divest this part of the business, or directly integrate it and hand it over to others for specialized management.
In addition to these businesses, the biggest business of the Shaman Gang is actually finance, which is also known as loan sharking for short.
By lending money to past businessmen, charging high interest rates, and then using force to ensure the recovery of the loans, this is the most profitable business of the Sharman Gang at the moment.
From the current account books, we can know that the money that the Sharman Gang had placed outside alone amounted to tens of thousands of gold coins.
This part of the business is the same as the brothel. There is no need to cut it down, but it is also necessary to strictly monitor it.
Otherwise it will be easy to cause some trouble.
In addition to these, Yadimu is also preparing to develop some new businesses.
“Have you found the factory we asked you to find before?”
Yadimu looked at the person in front of him and then spoke.
“That’s almost it.”
The person in front of him nodded respectfully, and then said: “Chief, you can go over and take a look at any time.”
“good.”
Yadimu nodded and then stood up.
He mounted a horse and came outside the city.
There, there was already thick smoke burning, and workers were moving among them.
“Mr. Deli.”
The person in charge came out and looked at Yadimu with some fear: “The things are ready.”
“Mr. Larch, don’t be so scared.”
Yadimu looked at the man in front of him and smiled easily: “We are partners, aren’t we?”
“Yes, it is.”
Lucky forced a smile, then nodded.
The Lucky in front of him is not a subordinate of Yadimu, but a former partner of the Sharman Gang.
Of course, it may be a bit reluctant to say that they are partners, but strictly speaking they should be regarded as debtors.
In order to expand his business, Lucky received a large amount of money from the Shaman Gang, about one thousand gold coins.
But then, due to the influence of the external environment, his business soon became unsustainable, and naturally he was unable to repay the loans owed by the Sharman Gang.
According to the past practice of the Sharman Gang, he said that if he didn’t get hacked to death, he would probably end up worse than death, and he would end up miserable.
But after Yadimu learned the news, he asked the people around him to let him go and chose to keep his venue.
