Chapter 1175 - Cautious and Diligent

Luke was here mainly to deliver Life 1 to them.

Without it, they wouldn’t be able to eliminate the after effects of Curve Shooting and Physical Outburst, and they would experience physical and mental problems sooner or later.

The two girls didn’t know this, and had used their skills a few times in the past six months.

Luke had only learned about this from Sloan recently. Naturally, he couldn’t let them kill themselves for no reason.

Secondly, he deposited a large amount of cash in many private bank safes throughout Rio to fund the two women’s future setup.

If they wanted to establish themselves among the common people, just the two of them weren’t enough, and would draw too much attention.

Even if the sheep were protected by lions, the hungry wolves would just think of a way to kill the lions first before they ate the sheep.

People still had to rely on themselves.

The two women from the Fraternity were well aware of this, or they wouldn’t be training the youngsters outside.

Although they weren’t short of money, it wasn’t enough to run an operation, unless they became drug dealers, which would go against their initial aspirations.

So, they only had a dozen young men under them — the ones who had been guarding the entrance.

In fact, they were only guarding against gang members from other areas invading their territory; they were like the “community watch” here.

But as they grew older, they would need income, and it was inevitable that they would join other gangs.

Luke used his most common method, the “shell company,” to help them resolve this problem.

A shell security company would be able to accommodate these youngsters.

Experience and qualifications weren’t a problem as long as there was money.

With money in the bag, it was up to the women to decide what kind of security force they wanted to train.

In Luke’s opinion, it would be best to divide these people into two groups.

Some of these youngsters didn’t have much ambition; they just wanted to make a steady living to feed themselves, so they could be trained as ordinary security guards.

Some who wanted to become guns for hire and make a lot of money would undergo basic training and monitoring before they were sent to another security company.

There was a market for South American mercenaries in the world.

There were many countries in South America, and the situation here was more chaotic. There was always a lot of demand for mercenaries, and even more of the poor who turned to this line of business for money.

This was reality, not a crime.

As usual, Rebecca and Riley did all the work, while Luke only gave suggestions and didn’t get involved in the details.

As for financial support, he didn’t want shares, but an external force.

Profits meant nothing to him; what was really troublesome was having to do everything himself.

Like when he had been investigating Sloan before; if there had been a professional force with more people who could have helped him investigate, it would’ve just been a matter of money.

In any case, he had a lot of illegal cash in his inventory, as well as a lot of real estate and private accounts all around the world, and he couldn’t use all of them.

Using these illegal assets to pay for the hire of an external force would be killing two birds with one stone.

He had no intention of hiding his plan from Rebecca and Riley.

Whether they became hired guns or gangsters would make a big difference to the kids.

Hired guns could make money and retire; this could be considered a freelance job with some future prospects. In comparison, whether or not gangsters retired, 99.99% of them would be forever poor.

Rebecca and Selina weren’t pure saints, and simply leaned more toward a sense of justice.

They had no objections to his plan.

Of course, Rebecca had privately told him that the company was his.

At that time, Luke had nodded with a smile and said casually, “You have to work toward legitimizing the company. Don’t think about profits for now. In the short term, I’ll reinvest the profits toward expanding the company, got it?”

Rebecca didn’t say anything else.

All these years, she had only ever been an assassin. Not only didn’t she understand emotions, she also had no business acumen.

It was only when Riley said that she could run the company that Rebecca agreed.

Of course, she didn’t know that when Luke said that he would reinvest the profits toward developing the company, so it would be making a loss for a few years at least, he wasn’t just thinking about it in terms of the money.

After that, Luke flew to Europe and found Kincaid, who was living in seclusion in the Netherlands with his wife.

Looking at that cheap black baldie standing on the porch of a small house, he couldn’t help but laugh.

The guy was chatting with Sonia, his wife. When he noticed Luke, he was stunned. “Cool Bird?” He then stood up with a smile and went to greet him.

They hugged each other lightly.

Walking back to the porch, Luke smiled and gave Sonia a hug as well.

She was a Latin American beauty, and much cuter than Kincaid and his bald head.

Kincaid was quite unhappy, but his wife was happy. What could he do?

Luke let go of Sonia, who was getting rounder every day. He looked at her big belly and shook his head. “You…”

Sonia rolled her eyes and exchanged a few words with him before she went back inside to make them drinks.

Luke lowered his voice and tilted his head at Kincaid. “Your wife is about to give birth. Shouldn’t you be the one to go make the tea?”

Kincaid snorted. “The doctor said that she needs to exercise a little every day, or it won’t be good for the triplets.”

“WTF? Triplets?” Luke was shocked and couldn’t help cursing. You’re really good!

Kincaid said smugly, “Hehe, you still have a long way to go, kid.”

Luke, who rarely admitted defeat ever since the system was activated, conceded.

Kincaid was almost fifty. He had gotten his wife out of Interpol in July last year. It was only the beginning of March, and triplets would be born in two months. How many people could compare with him?

More importantly, Luke was still a kid. How could he compare with this old man and produce triplets?

By a conservative estimate, he wasn’t planning on having children in the next twenty years.

In other words, he was still having fun in the first half of his life; there probably wouldn’t be a chance for him in this lifetime to compete with Kincaid in having kids.

…

After dinner, Luke said goodbye and left.

Kincaid and Luke’s private discussion didn’t take long; the two of them finished everything in the afternoon.

Luke hadn’t come looking for Kincaid because he wanted the old man to become active again.

The old man’s leg had been badly injured last time. He could walk, but it would be very dangerous for him if he got into his old line of business again.

Coupled with the fact that he now had a family, the idea of going out to fight and kill again had no appeal.

Luke had approached him only because he wanted the old man to gather intelligence from Europe’s underground network.

It wasn’t a dangerous job, and could even become a business operation for him, like starting up a trade investigation company or something.

In the end, Europe wasn’t America, and the multifaceted system wasn’t as useful here, so Luke felt that it was better to have a local tyrant to help him.
