Chapter 225 Cuban Casino Business

The old godfather called the patriarchs of the families. The first one was the Luccase in Miami. The old godfather said: "Lucesse, Hardy has a new idea of ​​making money."

Lucase immediately became interested, but he knew how strong Hardy’s ability to make money is, so he quickly asked: "Hadi has any ideas?"

"Open a casino in Cuba."

Lukesai was taken aback.

"Opening a casino in Cuba, can it make money, don't we have a casino in Las Vegas?" Lucase was surprised.

“Hadi said, Las Vegas’s customer base is mainly on the West Coast. People on the East Coast need to travel across the country to get to Las Vegas.”

"There are many advantages to building a casino in Cuba. There are scenery and beaches there. Unlike Las Vegas, which only has Gobi, it requires a lot of manpower and material resources to build anything."

"Every year, millions of tourists in the United States go to Miami Beach to visit. These people are excellent potential customers. Miami is only 300 kilometers from Havana. It only takes 1 hour by plane. The cruise ship can pass by overnight and go there. Three or five days, it’s easy to take a boat back."

“In fact, opening a casino in Cuba is equivalent to an extension of Miami’s tourism industry, but Miami does not allow gambling, so it is built in Cuba. At that time, Miami can directly slogans to go to Cuban casinos when it is publicized.”

"There are not only beaches, casinos, but also exotic South America. There are no fans and no one cares. If you get some beautiful South American women, it will definitely attract countless tourists."

"We can make money on passenger ships, we can make money in casinos, we can make money on board and lodging, we can sell more drugs, and we will enjoy a more free and crazier air than Las Vegas. I believe we will Attracting countless people from the East Coast to go to Cuba to have fun."

"More than that, we can also use casinos to launder money. Each family has some overseas businesses. I know that your Lucace family has a sugar business in South America, right? Money can be turned into legal income by turning around in the casino. ."

"The most important point is that drug funds, transactions with guys in South America and even France, do not need to be transferred back and forth, and can be turned directly in the casino, which will be countless times more convenient."

These words are all said by Hardy and the old godfather.

The most brilliant lie is nine true and one false, nine shallow and one deep. From the beginning, they all act according to the truth.

Cuba does have unique advantages, and many places can’t compare to Las Vegas.

Patriarch Lukese listened to the words of the old godfather, his eyes suddenly lighted up.

Every point the old godfather said hit Lucase’s heart.

Casinos make money, overseas funds operate, and drug funds enter and exit.

He felt that the idea of ​​building a casino in Cuba was great. It was a magical stroke. He admired Hardy even more.

And there is another advantage for him. He controls Miami. Miami is the closest to Cuba. It will become very important in the future. Their Lucesse family can make more money and grow stronger than before.

"Okay, I support this plan, but this time I hope the Lucifer family will take more shares." Lucifer said.

The old godfather smiled and said:

"Hehe, of course, Hardy has already considered this. He said that Miami is the most important node of this plan. In addition to calculating the shares according to the investment ratio, the Lucace family should get a part of the management shares."

Patriarch Lukasai felt very comfortable when he heard this, and I have to say that Hardy was really thoughtful and he even arranged a management unit.

"Of course, this point needs to be negotiated and decided after the partners are assembled, but it should not be difficult for me to pass the decision. After all, the future business needs the help of the Lucesse family." The old godfather said.

Ended the call with Patriarch Lucesse, and the old godfather contacted other families, not only the fifteen families that cooperated with the ‘Venetian’ casino, but also other families that did not cooperate.

Even the old godfather contacted Anthony Strazzi, the head of the Strache family, and Philip, the head of the Tatakilia family.

I have to say that the old godfather’s city mansion is really broad~deep.

And these families, it is almost the same as what was said to the chief of Lukesai.

The casino can make money.

Help the operation of overseas funds.

Provide a settlement center for the entry and exit of drugs.

Many people think Hardy’s plan is very good. Even if the casino does not make money, the latter two functions are enough to support them to build a casino.

finally.

The old godfather called Basini's phone.

In fact, before the old godfather made this call, someone had called Basini to report the situation. Basini was shocked when he heard it.

have to say.

That Hardy’s vision is really vicious, and he actually let him see this wonderful place in Cuba.

Casinos make money, launder their overseas funds, and even help other people to launder money. It is not only their gangs who need money laundering business, but also many rich and powerful people need money laundering.

If this business is done well, it will definitely make a lot of money.

And in this plan, he also saw Hardy’s conspiracy, the previous Mafia committee, Vito Corleone proposed to let the Los Angeles Gang join the committee, and other families also supported it. What does this mean?

shows that Hardy wants to get his tentacles deep into the Mafia committee.

Hadi is under Siegel’s sect. He killed Siegel at the beginning and was a natural enemy with him. He has made friends with Corleone, and he can no longer coexist with himself.

If he were allowed to enter the committee, then he might not even be able to keep his current power.

Hardy’s plan for a Cuban casino is similar to the plan for a Las Vegas casino. In addition to making money, it can also attract people. If all the families do business with him, then he will propose to join the committee in the future. Who else is there? be opposed to.

Basini is only the rotating chairman of the committee. Each term is only two years. It is more like a conference convener, but there is no veto power. The proposal can take effect as long as 80% of the people pass it.

If Hardy wins over more people, I believe he will never be able to stop him from joining the committee next time.

Just as Basini was thinking about countermeasures, the old godfather’s call came.

"Basini, I want to talk to you about building a casino in Cuba." Vito Corleone said in a hoarse voice.

"I will listen to Vito again." Basini said calmly.

Then the old godfather talked to Basini about the benefits of opening a casino in Cuba. In fact, the old godfather knew that someone must have notified Basini in advance, but he still wanted to say that they were both old foxes and both were acting.

But sometimes the play has to go on.

After the old godfather finished talking about the Cuban casino, Basini said nothing. The two were silent for a few seconds. The old godfather said: "Basini, I think no matter what the problem was before, it is actually for business. There is nothing to let go. What do you think."

"The Cuban casino business proposed by Hardy is very good. We can all invest and make money together, and all families can use the casino channel, which will make it easier to exchange funds countless times in the future."

"Basini, Hardy wants me to tell you that he doesn't like fighting. He hopes that everyone can make money together instead of constant internal friction. That completely violates the original intention of forming the committee. What do you mean by Basini."

Basini listened to the old godfather’s words, only feeling that his chest was blocked in panic.

If he agrees to join the business, it is equivalent to admitting to all the families that he has lost the Basini and has bowed his head to Hardy.

"Vito, I have to think about it." Basini said.

"Okay, I'll wait for your call." The old godfather hung up the phone after he finished.

The dimly yellow lamp was on the table, and Basini sat in the shadow, only half of his chin exposed. He was thinking about how to deal with this problem.

Open a casino in Cuba.

is indeed a brilliant idea.

But you Hardy can do it, and I can do Basini.

Cuba’s current Prime Minister Fulgencio Battista, speaking of him, is considered a friend. The United States now has a strong rule of Cuba. Prime Minister Fulgencio Battista has been in the United States before. , Make friends with people everywhere for help, and Basini met him at that time.

You can find Batista and build a casino in Cuba.

can even let the government stop Hardy and their actions, so that their casino can not be built.

If he gets the dominance of Cuban casinos, he can win over other gangster families to join, and then the Las Vegas Casino League that Hardy established before will collapse in an instant. He can get back the leadership of the committee, and he can never join. Committee.

The more I think about it, the more excited I get.

Just do it.

The next day, Basini took a plane to Cuba and contacted Batista. Prime Minister Battista also liked Basini, an American friend. You must know that Basini also has a certain influence in Washington.

When Basini proposed to build a casino in Cuba, Batista agreed. Although Cuba does not open the gambling industry, Batista felt that it could only be opened to foreigners. Such a proposal could easily be passed by Congress.

Furthermore, Cuba can also receive large taxes, so why not do it.

Basini came back from Cuba The whole person became energetic and immediately contacted other families, including those who had been left by Hadira.

Basini called Patriarch Lucasé.

"Lukese, co-operate with me. Cuban Prime Minister Batista and I are good friends. He has agreed to build a casino in Cuba. As for other people, hehe, they will definitely not be able to intervene. We can operate the casino to make money and launder money. "Basini said.

The other person mentioned by Basini is naturally Hardy.

Lucesse hesitated.

Lukese did have a good relationship with Hardy before. It was because he saw the benefits. If Hardy could not bring him benefits, Lukese would not become friends with him, let alone support him. Hardy.

People are very realistic, let alone the patriarch of a gangster family.

Now Basini has made it clear that he is in contact with Cuban Prime Minister Batista, and that the Prime Minister is there. Don’t even try to insert your hands in Cuba, which means that Hardy can’t do this business with them.

His Miami is the closest to Cuba. If the Cuban casino is built, he will benefit the most, and Lucesse does not want to give up.
