Chapter 620 - "Drug Relay"

Unlike the bosses that got gorgeous coffins, the mafia members didn't have that privilege.

The staff simply gave a large bag for each corpse and left them on the floor, lining up neatly. 

The illegitimate wives and children got slightly better treatment with less expensive-looking coffins. 

But compared to the family head's coffins, the difference was like heaven and earth. 

The latter had either a silver or gold-laced coffin, and the former only had simple wooden coffins. 

Seeing how the staff handled the corpse so efficiently, the remaining participants didn't have the mood to rejoice that they had advanced to the next round. 

All of them looked at this scene with a shiver down their spines.

These people are already expecting casualties? They even prepared custom-made coffins for the family heads, ah! 

Imagining how someone already prepared their coffins when they hadn't even started the tournament, the bosses shuddered from head to toe. 

There's no way that those who didn't become a high-ranking family would all die, right? 

The mafia society would be in a huge chaos, and it wouldn't be advantageous for the council, right? Or maybe the council had other plans? 

Ainsley also had the same thoughts. 

'Is the council trying to weed out these families or…? Losing a family head isn't that bad, but it will still bring out tons of problems for the mafia society. 

Especially when the family has no direct descendants to be an heir, or they're too young to be one. 

Is the council trying to tighten their grip on the mid-level mafia families? 

This...sounded logical. 

Once the mid-ranking mafia families had difficulties, the council could slowly extend their 'olive branch' to help these families and left a bit of 'shadow' on the family. 

Like this, the council could better monitor the families and would make sure that the council's regime remained superior. 

But maybe the reason why they didn't target the high-ranking or the 7 great and 7 sacred families was because the council's members were mainly from these families. 

Of course, once someone became a mafia council's member, they had to cut ties with their former family and be neutral. 

But it couldn't be helped if they did things in the dark. 

Discovering this kind of conspiracy, Ainsley didn't know what to say. 

'It seems that the mafia world is much more profound than what I expected...the politics is deep, and many factors are essential to keep a family alive and well.' 

Ainsley let out a small sigh. The mafia society is the underworld, and it's not a surprise that many dirty dealings and tricks are lingering everywhere. 

Ainsley patted her chest as he forced herself to listen to the woman's words since it was related to the first round of the tournament. 

Coincidentally, the woman had just revealed the first round's concept. 

"Just like what I said before, the first round will be 'Drug Relay'. The rules are simple." 

The woman pointed at the screen behind her, and the screen lit up, showing a neat and professional-looking PowerPoint. 

"The Drug Relay round is simply a competition to see how well your family can go against the government." 

The woman pointed at the first rule, and it stated that the winning criteria would be about how much drugs you sell to people outside of the mafia society. 

One had to show the proof of their dealings, and the drugs would be counted using grams or kilograms. 

Of course, different drugs have different points to offer. 

For example, one gram of Zeloin drug that was considered high-level drugs offered five points. 

But one gram of Niko Drug that was so common and cheap only offered one point for the family. 

Of course, the more expensive and rare the drug, the bigger the risk for the seller. 

The government was more adamant about tracking this kind of high-level drug dealings than the cheap one that people could buy anywhere. 

The cheap drugs had many dangerous side effects, but most of them only affected one's health. 

On the other hand, the higher-level drugs not only affect one's health, but also affect their special ability, mind, mental, and so on. 

Someone said that the Zeloin drug could make the user feel like they're the strongest in the world. 

But the side effect is that...the user will exhaust their lifespan and descend into madness. 

This kind of drug is usually used to kill targets without exposing many traces and kill the target slowly. 

So many other drugs existed in the mafia society business, and now, the tournament's first-round is to sell drugs! 

Of course, the result would be counted starting from the chosen date. The previous sales and income from selling drugs wouldn't be calculated. 

Aside from stimulating these families to try selling a more high-level and expensive drug, the council's purpose of issuing this task is also to annoy the government as much as they can! 

Clearly, the families that already have  in selling drugs would have a head start in this round, but unfortunately...the Sloan Family wasn't included in this category. 

When Ainsley heard that the first round was to sell drugs to non-mafia members, she almost fainted on the spot. 

How is this possible, ah?! Her family only sold common drugs in the past, and Ainsley also abolished the business after she took over the family head's seat. 

Now...they had to sell drugs?! 

Not only did this go against Ainsley's moral principle, but it also gave her a sense of hopelessness. 

The drug-dealing business wasn't an easy business that one could start anytime, ah…

But they only had one month to do this and they couldn't rely on others or their end result would be invalid! 

What to do??
