Chapter: 5894

But he believed that Chen Zhaogong would definitely be able to understand Strong Kid's inner thoughts, having already made up his mind.

Therefore, he looked at Niu Dawai's awkward expression and asked, "What do you think, Mr. Niu?"

Niu Dawai coughed twice and said, "Now gang members are dying or fleeing, and Master Ye wants to support Strong Kid as the leader of the gang, but with only him as the sole commander, it would be difficult to develop further..."

Ye Chen spoke coldly, "Mr. Niu, look down on yourself and belittle others will only make you a self-pitying woman who has lost her way, reducing your vision and status, making you a useless piece of trash. You should think carefully - if Strong Kid fails, what good would it bring to you? Could it let you confidently walk out of the hair salon and become the leader of Chinatown again?"

Ye Chen said this much before Niu Dawai could respond, then continued, "I'm telling you, no! If Strong Kid fails, you will either not leave your beloved hair salon for the rest of your life or never return to Chinatown again. Moreover, you will never have another opportunity to turn things around!"

Immediately, Ye Chen looked at him and asked in reverse, "What if Strong Kid succeeds? If you step back, can you continue living a normal life in Chinatown? If you take another step forward, maybe you could become the core member of the gang, with no small or great matters - I believe you have your own considerations!"

Niu Dawei felt ashamed and embarrassed when he heard this. He didn't think highly of Strong Kid, and even less so of Ye Chen, who seemed to have emerged from nowhere. He didn't believe Ye Chen had the ability to help himself or Strong Kid, especially under the pressure of Burning Angel's gang.

However, he couldn't deny one thing: Strong Kid, despite being young and inexperienced, was indeed more daring than himself.

Although his heart wasn't convinced by Ye Chen's abilities, Niu Dawei also had his own concerns. If he refused to cooperate with Ye Chen, he would have to continue hiding in the shadows for the rest of his life, never having a chance to turn things around.

But if he worked together with Ye Chen, maybe there was still a glimmer of hope for him.

Thinking this, he couldn't help but glance at Chen Zhaoyong on the side.

In his eyes, Chen Zhaoyong was an outstanding figure. Although he had been stuck in this shop for so many years doing braised duck, he was undoubtedly one of the smartest people in Chinatown. Since even he believed in Ye Chen, it must mean that Ye Chen was indeed more capable than he had imagined."

"So, he made up his mind and said to Ye Chen, 'Mr. Ye, I'm willing to cooperate with you, whatever you need me to do, just give me an order!'"

"Ye Chen replied calmly, 'Introduce me to this group of people, including what's behind them, especially the Italian people?'"

"Nie Daguang hurriedly said, 'The group of people is a gang that was established only a few years ago, but its predecessor was formed by merging several small gangs in New York. The main reason they could merge was due to the backing of the Italian Mafia. The Italian people have deep roots in America and have gradually cleaned up their reputation over the years, leaving all the dirty work to new gangs that support them. At least 80% of these new gangs' profits are handed over to the Italian people.'"

"As he spoke, Nie Daguang added, 'The Italian Mafia in America is mostly family-based. In the past, it was well-known for the five major families, but now the strongest one is actually outside of those five families - the Zano family. The group of people is loyal to the Zano family.'"

"Ye Chen said, 'They have this Zano family backing them up, and then they earn money by giving at least half of it to the Zano family. In a strict sense, that means they are specialized in low-end markets and Zano family has absolute control over them.'"

Nie Daguang nodded and said, 'Mr. Ye, you're correct. This kind of gang actually has many under its thumb, including the group of people. The members of this group are mostly uneducated and non-white, so their main business is to grab territories, collect protection fees, and also engage in some higher-end industries like illegal goods with high profits.'"

"One side, Chen Zhaoyong introduced Ye Chen, saying, 'The people in charge of the Zano family have a keen mind. They took what was originally a single-track business and broke it down into multiple sections, then assigned different sections to different organizations to be responsible for. The organizations then worked together, mutually compensating each other, and mutually supervising and warning each other.'"

"Ye Chen raised an eyebrow and said, 'Uncle Zhaoyong, give me a detailed introduction.'"

"Chen Zhaoyong explained, 'My opinion is based on some information I've gathered from outside as well as my own observations. It may not be accurate, but it shouldn't deviate too much either.'"

"After finishing his explanation, Chen Zhaoyong became serious and said, 'Actually, the Zano family's main source of income has always been illegal drug trafficking and sales. They have a special gang for trafficking and another one for sales, as well as many low-level gangs like this group that are scattered across the country.'"

"This organization's basic structure is to first send out a lot of low-level gangs to continuously expand their influence range across the country. They select an area afterwards and occupy it by force, quickly gaining absolute control over that area, after which the team responsible for selling drugs will expand its business to the new occupied territory and directly monopolize the drug trade within that area. Meanwhile, the low-level gangs that initially occupied the territory will also provide cover and security guarantees for these drug dealers."

"Ye Chen nodded and said with a smile: 'I understand now, it's like sending out thieves to steal a car, then have them wash the people and wealth inside the car before opening the car door and loading another batch of people and drugs to go to their destination to sell and earn even more profits.'"

"That's right," Chen Zhaoyong said. "However, those who ride in on this convenience are not just drug dealers. They will monopolize not only the drug trade but also the gambling businesses and flesh trade within their influence range. Within that area, they do not allow anyone else to set up underground gambling dens or lending operations; they even bring in a batch of women from shady backgrounds to monopolize the flesh trade within that region, forcing other organizations or individuals involved in the flesh trade to stop taking clients."
