Gotham Dark Godfather

After hearing Riddler Nimag's suggestion, Zhou Hao pondered for a moment, thinking secretly in his heart.

The collection of protection fees is stable, but the amount is not very large.If it is really collected, it may only be a drop in the bucket.In fact, there was still half a sentence that Zhou Hao had not said just now. Collecting protection fees is not a simple task.

First of all, protection fees from various places must be collected, which means that Zhou Hao's existing manpower must be increased. The original number of more than 200 boys, placed in Gotham's largest Arkham District, is simply a drop in the ocean, and it is simply not enough.If there are at least ten people on a street, the manpower must be increased at least three times, otherwise it will be impossible to maintain the basic work of collecting money.

But this also increases labor costs, which in turn further eats into the meager profits.After all, if you have so many underlings, you have to pay for them, otherwise no one will work seriously with you.Moreover, it will be difficult for these people to be laid off when the economy improves in the future.After all, when you collect protection money, these people work hard for you. When you don't need to continue to collect protection money and get a bad reputation afterwards, you can't be like a certain boss, calling them brothers and sisters at the same time and kicking them out, right?

You must know that those who work in the underworld keep their heads above their belts. Once they are abolished, it may cause unnecessary resistance.

The final result is that a short-term project used for blood transfusion (collecting protection fees) has to turn into a long-term drawback that sucks the blood of citizens and businessmen.Gradually it became a burden that hindered the transformation of its own group.

"Don't think about this for now!" Zhou Haoyan said concisely and comprehensively.Lack of interest in this plan.

But people like Riddler Nimag can also see Zhou Hao's concerns.So he spoke to persuade:

"We can use Arkham police officers to get the money and split the rent [-]-[-]. This way we don't need to recruit more underlings and can maintain it."

The Riddler's idea is very simple. It is to use police officers instead of gangs to make money. This can not only save a lot of money, but also maximize the use of manpower. It is a method.

In fact, most police officers across Gotham do this, collecting protection fees directly from businesses, and this has been a tradition for decades.After Zhou Hao came to Arkham and took office, in order to consolidate his prestige, he initially turned a blind eye to this practice of collecting black money and allowed his subordinates to collect it at will.Later, after his own industry expanded, this kind of thing began to be gradually restricted. After Deadshot took over, it was strictly prohibited. This is the area with the best atmosphere in Gotham.

"It's a step backwards for police officers to turn around and collect illegal money. Especially when patrolling the streets, when encountering vendors and shops, they act like beggars asking for money. It's really disrespectful to police officers!" Zhou Hao said thoughtfully Said: "We haven't reached this level yet. By the way, what are some of the more arrogant new gangs in Gotham recently? They are the kind that have a lot of public anger and do things without rules."

Hearing Zhou Hao's question, Riddler Nimag blinked his eyes and answered:

"There are gangs everywhere in Gotham. It's easy to find these few who don't open their eyes, but do you mean that?"

Before the Riddler finished speaking, Zhou Hao said to himself:

"It's also extortion. There's nothing to gain from finding a few ordinary people. It's better to just steal some extravagant money from the gangsters!!"

Hearing that Zhou Hao had a plan, the Riddler stopped trying to persuade him. After all, the gangsters were extorting citizens, and Zhou Hao was blackmailing the gangsters. He also got the money and gained a good reputation. If he uses it for a short period, there is no big problem. .

It is said that at the moment when Zhou Hao is worrying about money, in the metropolis on the other side, there is an old prison, which has become the focus of the news and media.

Speaking of which, the prisons in Metropolis are far less famous than Gotham's Blackgate Prison.But today, a large number of reporters gathered in this place, and countless spotlights almost surrounded the place.

What attracted so much attention was naturally not the prison itself, but the fact that a certain big shot imprisoned inside could finally be released.

In an instant, several prison guards escorted a man out of the prison. This guy didn't look like there was anything special about him, but his bald head allowed people to see flashes of light from a long distance away.

Lex Luthor!The smartest and richest man in the metropolis.Among the many titles such as billionaire, business tycoon, philanthropist, inventor, politician, etc., the most famous is the title of Superman's Nemesis.Because he illegally developed destructive weapons to deal with Superman, he was thrown directly into the police station by the other party.Now, through the mediation of Lex Group, this man, who claims to have level nine wisdom, is finally released from prison on bail.

"Mr. Luther, what do you have to say about this parole?" A female reporter held a microphone and tried to squeeze in. Countless spotlights kept shining on Luther.

This man who dared to be Superman's enemy smiled in a good-natured way and waved to everyone, but had no intention of being interviewed. He hurriedly boarded the group's car and left here.

Returning to his office building, Luther stood in front of the huge floor-to-ceiling windows, looking at the metropolis below him, silent.This time in prison allowed him to stop and take a good look at his recent behavior and devote himself to developing stronger mechas. It was not a smart idea to go head-to-head with Superman.Especially this kind of thing is like two kids fighting with fists in kindergarten. It's a waste of time.

In fact, he should use more of his talents in more important places, such as an amazing tribute that gives people the potential, or a true example that can prove the greatness of mankind, a symbol that can lead mankind to touch and represent dreams. (Excerpted from the comic "Luthor")

Simply put, making humans believe that they can become great again and be above all things is what they should do.

Just as Luther was lost in thought, a cleaner opened the door and walked in. He was obviously surprised when he saw the boss at the window.

"Oh? Are you back? Mr. Luther, I haven't seen you for a long time! I was wondering why the office door was opened just now."

Luther took a look at his desk. It was smooth and clean without a trace of dust. It was obvious that when he was away, the people here remained diligent and serious.

"How many times have I told you! You can call me Lex!" Luther smiled. At this moment, he didn't look like a super villain, but like an ordinary person chatting.

After hearing what the boss said to him, the cleaner started to clean the carpet while shaking his head.

"How can I just call you Lex? It's a matter of respect, Mr. Luther!"
