Chapter 309

Back in Washington, D.C., Luke didn't live a few quiet days.

The White House and the Pentagon take turns visiting every day.

The Red Square meeting has almost pointed out the contradictions between the two superpowers and the future situation.

The whole world wants to know which side Superman is on.

More precisely, everyone is worried.

Will Superman become a "weapon" and be put on the battlefield.

Luke didn't want to be a doctor of Manhattan at all. If Howard couldn't think of it, he would be regarded as the biggest threat in the world.

Then a series of conspiracies were designed. Finally, at the cost of the lives of nearly 8 million people in New York, the US Soviet struggle for hegemony was ended, and the Third World War broke out.

And he went away to Mars and completely lost his humanity

That's boring.

The catcher world line is doomed to be impossible in Marvel Universe.

So, in order to avoid the harassment of politicians and prepare the bachelor party for the captain of the United States before his marriage, Luke took Howard to Las Vegas to collect wind.

They are sitting on a passenger plane bound for Nevada. Due to limited conditions and don't want to be killed.

They didn't call a bunch of stewardesses and danced pole dancing in first class.

Only the iron man can do that kind of corrupt and degenerate extravagant life.

"Why do you want to open hotels and casinos in Las Vegas?"

Howard asked curiously.

Nevada is mostly a barren desert, discovered by Mexican businessmen, followed by a group of Mormons.

It was not until the United Pacific Railway was accessible that it gradually prospered.

Later, the gold rush prompted a large influx of people.

But just like the mining towns in the west, when the resources of gold and silver mines are exhausted, the gold miners will leave and look for the next place.

"First, Nevada gambling is legal."

"Secondly, the Army Department has built many military bases there to facilitate me to radiate my influence."

"Finally, I believe Las Vegas will become a paradise for the rich and a paradise for gamblers."

Luke said with a smile.

The casino plan he had considered had already been completed and entered the state of business.

A Mafia who traveled across the ocean from Sicily to North America.

At Luke's instigation, they did not compete for territory and business with their compatriots, nor did they conflict with the Irish.

Kosa Alessandro, a newcomer, took his brothers to gain a foothold in New York and only operated an underground casino business in a few blocks.

In Luke's words, it's "practice first".

It's not easy to operate a casino. You need to accumulate experience in security, customer source, chip exchange, capital flow and so on.

Most gangsters don't have any skills.

Apart from violence, not many people know how to use their brains.

Therefore, they are keen on high-risk businesses such as smuggling and drug trafficking.

Serious industries have thresholds.

Once a Wall Street stockbroker, his favorite client was a gangster.

Because they give money quickly and never ask about the economy of the account.

This is just like the entertainment industry of later China, where the most popular investor is the coal boss.

In essence, there is a very high similarity between the two.

Later, there was an amazing case. A bold liar disguised as a gold medal agent of Morgan Stanley played around the heads of the five Italian families, and even the accountants specially hired by the Mafia didn't notice anything wrong.

In just half a month, the swindler got nearly $1.5 million and then slipped away.

Of course, later, the leaders of the five families issued a "wanted notice", which arrested people four months later with higher efficiency and faster speed than the federal police.

As for the end?

The swindler was not dismembered or drowned.

Instead, he was put in a local prison according to legal procedures.

Two weeks later, he died of anal fissure.

It is said that he changed four "roommates".

From white to black, from tough men to perverts.

Every roommate has a strong man lock man, man plus man's special hobby.

A liar is like a tunnel through a volcano, which is in and out every day.

Finally, he was overwhelmed and died of anal fissure.

This also reflects from the side that gangs are good at fighting.

But when it comes to dealing with wealth, it's true.

Luke doesn't want Alessandro's gang to become "thugs" who depend on themselves and only do illegal business.

The more stable the social environment is, the less living space the gangs will have.

Anyway, sooner or later we have to wash white and go ashore. Why not refuse to go to the sea from the beginning to reduce the stains on our bodies.

Just as the saying "all the ways to get rich are written in the criminal law", businesses with huge profits are basically illegal or in a gray area.

In the lighthouse country of freedom and democracy, the only thing worth investing is probably gambling.

From the past to the present, the meat business and gambling business are different.

It has never been out of date and has always been the "hard demand" of mankind.

"Paradise for the rich... I do have many friends who are attracted by Las Vegas."

Howard thought that the "casino" had not spread all over the world at this time.

Its name only spreads in a small group of rich circles. Those bastards who have money and no place to spend like to take their lovers to Las villas in groups.

New York's Salon reception, horse riding and golf can't satisfy them.

Once the threshold of desire rises, it is difficult to fall again.

"It's just that you have something to do with the Mafia?"

Howard, leaning against the plane seat, asked.

He had heard the legend of Superman helping the Allies raid Sicily.

But lieutenant general Tang Tang should not and could not take the initiative to mix with the Mafia.

"I was originally an Irish immigrant, and my uncle painted the house for the Irish gangster."

Luke shrugged and turned to ask, "do you know how influential the international truckers union is? Its chairman, Jimmy Hoffa, has more than two million registered members and an 8 billion pension."

"How many votes are these? What a glittering investor? Howard, don't underestimate the gangs. Their era is not over unless the cold war ends and peace comes."

Even Kennedy Jr., who will become president in the future, has a delicate relationship with the Irish gangs.

Many people say that Italians mix black and white to do business, and Irish fight and engage in politics.

It means that the Mafia go to the sea first and then go ashore. From gang boss to business tycoon.

The Irish are specialized in uniting trade unions and engaging in political contributions and political investment.

Perhaps their most successful was to send little Kennedy to the White House.

It just didn't turn out well. The Kennedy brothers didn't behave as well as their father.

Pay attention to a fair deal and exchange of interests.

After they came to power, they turned around to rectify the collusion between trade unions and gangs before they took a hot seat.

"That's right. Jimmy Hoffa has always been a man of the moment."

Howard looked at the scattered clouds, ended the gang topic and mentioned another thing.

"Is Rogers really going to get married?"

Luke nodded. His careless words seemed to be heard by the captain of the United States.

It seems like a reliable plan to wake up old brothers with a wedding.

"Las Vegas is where Steve spent his single night."

Luke was excited about this.

……

……

On the other side, Las Vegas.

An old man with a hat and a silver walking stick appeared in the desert.

Maybe the sun was hot and the temperature was too high, and his figure was distorted.

"I smell... A tempting smell."

The old man sniffed and grinned.

Like a hungry diner, I saw a full table of sumptuous banquets.

"Last time I came, there was nothing in this place."

The old man muttered and stepped forward.

Space, like automatic shortening, quickly disappeared into the desert.

"Insatiable greed, insatiable selfish desires... It's more like hell than hell."
