Time flies, and four more days have passed in a blink of an eye. Henry is now standing on the second floor of the guild looking at the busy scene outside, the corners of his mouth are slightly upturned, revealing a satisfied smile. lala If you have already read this chapter, please move to Biquge () to read the latest chapters, or you can search for “Biquge” or “” directly on Baidu.

After receiving a large sum of money, the slum reconstruction project has finally started. Although it was not smooth at the beginning, a large number of ragged residents were reluctant to leave their homes and even gathered to resist.
However, in the next two days, Wahid brought a large number of people from house to house to intimidate and lure, and promised to give everyone a new home after the demolition. These talents reluctantly left the shack and joined the demolition team. One after another dirty and dangerous old houses were pushed down, and the sound of rumbling and collapse was endless.
Of course, there is a reason why the workers work so hard. The salary of one silver coin a day, three meals and drinking water, these conditions are like a dream for those poor people who can’t even eat enough.
Especially when it was approaching noon, the smell of fish soup came from a big pot and they kept swallowing, hoping to finish their work quickly and go to dinner.
“Little wild cat, have you seen it? These poor people have slowly begun to identify with me. After the whole project is over, they will worship me as a god. At that time, no one can take me away. These few streets. This is the first lesson I want to teach you, cohesion.” Henry said to the girl beside him without looking back.
Fatini blinked her eyes faintly: “Cohesion? Do you mean to use good to draw people around you?”
Hearing the girl’s understanding, Henry smiled and shook his head: “That’s right, not right. Benefits are one of them. More importantly, you have to give them hope. Human beings are a race with very complicated emotions. One On the one hand, their interests are paramount, and it is difficult to be impressed if they do not see the tangible benefits. On the other hand, they desire to have a spiritual sustenance, so they must give these people a goal, but a goal that at least seems to be achievable. When the two are combined, mankind will burst out with great potential and enthusiasm. This is the so-called cohesion.”
“It sounds a bit complicated, but I can barely understand it. But are you sure that such a big move is really okay? I heard that many guilds have sent a lot of spies to stare at it!” Fatini’s face was worried. expression.
The girl still can’t believe it. In just a few days, a seemingly whimsical plan actually started to break ground, and other guilds around were just silently observing, no one came to make trouble at all, even the “venomous snake” that was severely cleaned up. McGide did not endure this breath for some reason.
Henry smiled disdainfully, and said softly: “It’s okay, just let them stare. Now everyone is waiting. As long as the transformation is not completed for a day and no huge profits are generated in a day, these guys will not act rashly. And they will. Stop those who want to make trouble. Because what we are doing is a reform. If it succeeds, it will be good for the entire gang in Port Kalin.”
In fact, the gang organization structure in Port Carlin is quite primitive. Still staying at the stage of street violence, theft, robbery, collecting protection fees, and controlling the orioles, only a very small number of large guilds are qualified to play smuggling, narcotics, weapons and armor trading, and slave trading. business.
They simply don’t understand that combining the threat of violence with serious business can make more money, such as operating bars, nightclubs, restaurants, hotels, casinos, loan sharks…
What he has to do is to drive this transformation, so that the entire underground forces change from disorder to order. In this way, these guys who only think about fighting and killing all day, driven by their interests, will slowly begin to learn to negotiate and compromise. At that time, the masters of the talisman will definitely be tempted to meet their initiators in person. .
Of course, such a large project cannot be completed in one day or two days. According to the plan, it will take at least one month to complete the first step, which is to pave the road to the market and the pier, and then build shops on both sides of the road. , As for the gradual construction of residential houses, let’s start with the business first.
After all, to feed so many eating mouths, if you can’t get in, you will go bankrupt in less than a month and a half.
When Henry was considering whether to buy something and sell it first, Wahid came up from the stairs in a leather armor and panting and shouted: “Boss, this place will be remodeled the day after tomorrow, do you think? Start recruiting chefs, waiters, and bartenders. In addition, you have to purchase some alcohol and tobacco.”
“You can figure it out, I only have one request, that is, it must not be made like a country tavern, so that every guest feels like being in the palace. In addition, we must ensure that whether it is on the first floor The pub, the restaurant on the second floor, or the casino in the basement must all have performances, and they must not be messy. For example, the atmosphere of the bar is more lively, so you can find a few girls with good figures to dance some seductive dances. The restaurant is more. Be quiet, find a bard to play an instrument or sing. As for the casino, you need something that stimulates the senses.”
Combining the entertainment and service industries is Henry’s killer trick to attract customers. Maybe it’s already rotten on the earth, but no one in Faerun has done this yet.
Because such high-end entertainment venues that require a large amount of initial investment and are expensive to maintain, and specialize in serving the wealthy, can only make money in large cities with ample population and prosperous business. However, in the entire continent of Faerun, cities with this qualification can be counted by ten fingers. Both Deepwater City and Ascatraz, the capital of Amn, fail to meet the requirements, and Port Carlin, with a population of 200,000, is just one of them One.
There are almost no restrictions on trade, so that the city has a lot of wealthy people, and the huge floating population in the port area can fully drive the entertainment and service industries. The luxury of the Giant Spirit Hotel is the best example.
The long list of requests gave Wahid a headache, but he gritted his teeth and nodded: “Okay, I will have someone post the notice tomorrow, and then send someone to buy the goods. You need to know what we are. The cost of the sky is a bit big. I just looked at the ledger and it was shocking. It must be a profitable project as soon as possible.”
I saw this middle-aged uncle with a fierce face in front of me. Henry smiled and waved his hand: “Don’t worry. Before this road is opened. We are destined to not make much money, so it is natural to go with the rest. Put the main energy on the engineering side, and then focus on McGide. He has lost so many of his subordinates, and he has also smashed his face so severely, this guy will definitely not give up.”
“Please don’t worry about this. I have recruited a few good players. If he dares to send someone to make trouble. Don’t even think about going back alive if one of them is guaranteed.” As Wahid squeezed the dagger inserted in his waist. .
He has always hated McJed’s act of launching an attack while he was away last time, vowing to make him look good whenever he has a chance.
With the large amount of gold coins scattered, the Phantom Guild is no longer in the state of two or three kittens a few days ago. There are more than two hundred full members alone, plus it is in a period of large-scale construction and indirect control The number of adult men in China is more than 3,000. Although most of them are poor people who can’t get enough to eat, if someone dares to move their jobs, the consequences will be very serious.
Wahid now admires more and more for the courage and methods of his young leader. Although the transformation of shanty towns may seem a bit whimsical, it is in the process. Every resident in the nearby streets will have a close relationship with the guild. It will not take long for them to taste the sweetness of the guild as their own. When the time comes, even those large guilds covet these streets and dare not easily do it.
“Then I’ll leave it to you here. Try to make these workers eat better. Their physique itself is not very good. If the nutrition is not enough, it is easy to cause trouble. The reason why I hired them is to leave a good reputation. Never let good things turn into bad things.”
Henry exhorted again at last. Although he doesn’t think he is a good person, he still disdains and exploits those poor people who don’t even have decent clothes.
“The food we provided was pretty good. There were fish and meat for lunch and dinner, and the workers were very satisfied. I will keep an eye on the person responsible for buying vegetables and cooking, and will not give him a chance to embezzle a copper plate.”
Wahid is not stupid, knowing that doing so can bring huge benefits, so he did not hesitate to give a guarantee. He believes that in this situation, more than 3,000 workers will all be members of the guild sooner or later, and as long as no one is given a weapon, they will be transformed into thugs in an instant.
More than 3,000 thugs!
Although it was just a group of civilians with no professional level, they could already speak loudly in the underground world of Port Carlin, and even the most powerful thief guild might not be able to draw two thousand people.
Seeing the ambition in Wahid’s eyes, Henry showed a satisfied smile on his face: “Very good, go ahead with you. Remember, I never treat those loyal subordinates badly. Tell you about the recruits. After this street is completed, every boss can get a shop, they only need to pay half of the profit every month, and all the rest belongs to themselves.”
Sharing the benefits!
He was very clear that this should not only be external, but also internal, especially for those guild managers with certain ambitions. This is also part of the binding of interests. Only when internal stability can maintain unity and external solidarity.
“Really…really!!” Wahid’s mouth grew in surprise, completely unable to believe what he heard.
After spending so many years on the street, it was the first time he saw such a generous guild leader. The other bosses were desperately eating alone, preventing their subordinates from having the opportunity to expand their influence so the whole person looked a little bit. Excited.
Obviously, this was the result Henry wanted, using huge profits to completely stun the newly recruited men.
Staring at Wahid’s face flushed with excitement, he replied without hesitation: “Of course, you can clearly tell everyone that my goal is to integrate the chaotic underground world of Port Carlin, as long as they show If you have enough talents, you can get rich returns. Of course, there is another prerequisite, that is, you must abide by the rules I set, or you will pay a heavy price! Although I hate violence, I don’t mind guest appearances at certain times. One executioner.”
Henry’s eyes immediately became sharp after speaking, and the whole person exuded a terrifying aura, causing the temperature in the room to drop to freezing point instantly…
