old dream

Chapter 213 Another Legend

In recent months, Chestalo's focus has been outside of Stade, and mainly on running the Redstone business.Colin had always been aware of this.

But he didn't expect that in just a few months of silence, Luca had made such progress.

Redstone has narrow uses, involves fewer people, and faces stricter controls.Therefore, the operation of this business will be more silent than the bootlegging trade, and no news will be leaked throughout the process.

So even in Stade, no one knew that Luca's power was rapidly expanding in secret.

I remember that at the "Nales House" theater under the name of Marizio, Luca once said that he could take someone to another city and become the chief official of Chestalo.At that time, while watching the performance on the stage, he said in person:
"I promise, you will live like the new mayor."

This is not an empty promise. It turns out that Luca was already working on the distant layout at that time.

It's only been a few months, but when I think about it, it feels like a lifetime away.

But later, Colin was restrained by Capello's affairs for a while, and then there was a storm of monitoring bootlegging, a confrontation with Marizio after the suspicion was exposed, and a riot.And in this delay after delay, the careers of Colin and Luka went further and further, so that now, when he heard that Luka had monopolized the redstone transactions in several cities, Colin was still a little unbelievable for a while. .

But if Luka heard that Colin was already the king of bootleggers in Stade, he would definitely show the same expression.

Then Colin sighed.After confirming that Luca is also realizing his ideal step by step, he also felt a little relieved for no reason.

I remember that Luca once said to himself that it is necessary to change the existing gang traditions, and even rebuild all the Cincilian groups to make them more suitable for this era.

The original blueprint of the Stade Institute also referred to Luca's ideas to a certain extent.

It's a pity that the city where he made his fortune happened to be the place where the traditional Cincily gangs were most deeply rooted.

Therefore, Luca is deliberately bypassing this place for development.

Or rather, developing around Marizio.

It is foreseeable that Luca will return to Nanstadt one day and take the position of "big boss" in one fell swoop.

After sending away the bootleggers in other cities, Colin sat back in his office behind the speakeasy, full of thoughts.

There were two other people in the office, one of them was Ricardo, and there were still many gauzes on his body.The other person seemed to be taking a nap on the desk.

Colin walked to the desk, poured some wine, and drank it down.Then he turned his head and said to Ricardo at the side:

"You would never have imagined that Luca's current power."

Holding the wine glass and smiling slightly, Colin told Ricardo what he just heard.After hearing this, Ricardo was as surprised as he was then, but then became excited:

"You mean, Chestalo is a giant now?"

"Not yet, but soon." Ke Lin analyzed:

"Marizio is going to stop. The remaining three companies have no strength...so the next 'big boss' is basically Luca." He went on to say:
"Even if it doesn't work, I can help him at a critical moment."

It can be said that the old friend Luca became the leader of the Sincilians, which can be said to be a certainty.

"I'll just say yes, what did you say back then?" Ricardo was a little proud for a moment.

"Yes." Colin repeated his words at that time:
"'We add Luka and we're unbeatable.'"

Maybe everything will really develop as Ricardo predicted.

But after Colin finished speaking, he immediately fell silent. He walked to the window and scanned the leaden gray city exterior with his eyes.

He was thinking deeply, so he abruptly stopped the conversation with Ricardo, and quickly made some decisions in his mind.

I happen to have a demand of [-] pounds of redstone in my hand, but I must never ask Luca to buy it.

At least not until the last moment.

Because along the way, I have left too many lies to Luca.From the first time he lied to be his uncle to buy red stones, and later used Chestalo's name to sell wine privately.If now, suddenly ask Luca for 40 pounds, or pay [-] Ori in some form, then all the deceptions in the past will be exposed at once.

It's not that he's afraid of a counterattack, it's nothing at all, it's just that he doesn't want Luka to know what's going on behind the scenes.Even if there is a showdown sooner or later, I instinctively hope that it will come slowly, or at least not now.

Besides, even for Luca, it should be difficult to supply a thousand pounds.Therefore, the safest approach is still to prepare to contact overseas sellers first.

In fact, in addition to these reasons, there is another consideration.

In this underground bootlegging war, I had to go through a bloody storm and defeat countless extraordinary people to secure my position today.

And what about Luca?
Obviously, the extraordinary interests involved in the controlled product "Redstone" may only be more and deeper than bootleg alcohol.

Judging from this point alone, the extraordinary threat Luka faces will never be less than himself.At the same time, he himself is just an ordinary person, and Mr. No. [-], the lampkeeper who cooperates with him, has already been disabled.

So who is the person behind Luca supporting all this?

Heine once mentioned: Under someone's theft, the secret redstone craft of the order was leaked.

The leak of secrets and the monopoly of underground redstone trading, the two major events should come from the same group of people.

Redstone was originally an important resource for extraordinary people, and because of the development of automobile engines, it may have a status similar to that of oil in the previous life.

After thinking about it for a while, you can feel the troublesome atmosphere behind this incident, rushing towards your face.

Redstone is a controlled product for ordinary people, but it won't cause too much trouble at a higher level, even if it involves a whole thousand pounds—it's just the thousand pounds itself.

But if the same weight of goods is associated with a "new production process", then what it means is completely different.

Now there are only forty days left until the winter solstice tide, try not to make more changes during this time.

So it is still necessary to buy redstone from overseas.After all, it was necessary to purchase a large amount of original wine, and there was already a stable enough secret transportation line at hand.

…………

Ricardo has become accustomed to his sudden silence, and Colin has already done a lot of thinking knowing this sudden effort.

Colin came back to his senses, put the glass in his hand back on the tray, walked back to the table, and stretched out his hand to shake the person who was dozing on his stomach.

There is another person in the office.

And when Colin came back to the office, the man didn't respond.

In the workplace, he was dressed in pagan festival-like costumes, without the slightest energy, lying on the desk like a corpse.

And Ricardo at the side still couldn't get rid of the terrifying memories of this person.Because if she found out a few minutes later that she had captured a fake lieutenant, maybe his happiness for the rest of his life would be ruined.

It's Goldie.

The former secret detective raised his head in confusion, and then saw Colin, and then there was fear in his eyes like seeing a salary cut notice.

"Take care of yourself tonight. Understand?"

Colin ordered her coldly.

　The state is not very good, and I deleted a section that was written crookedly, so let's do it today.
