Hardy Empire 1945

Public opinion can guide emotions.

Newspaper reports, radio broadcasts, and what they said are justified and well-founded. Naturally, many people believe that people in Las Vegas are beginning to feel that this is indeed the case.

Does Las Vegas have a future?

Is there any investment value here?

Land prices are like stocks, and they are sold in anticipation. If a place has no development prospects, the land there is naturally worthless.

At the time, Walsh Mining bought that piece of land in New Mexico, 8,000 acres, worth only 200,000 US dollars, which is equivalent to 25 US dollars per acre.

Some desert lands in Nevada and Colorado are also listed for sale by the government there. The lowest price is only a few dollars an acre, but no one buys it at all.

Due to the legalization of gambling in Las Vegas, the land price is now about five or six hundred dollars, and the most expensive in the city center reaches more than 4,000.

If the gambling industry here does not make money, or even without the gambling industry, the land here may fall to a few dollars.

You know, this is the deserted Nevada Gobi.

The original buyers who bought land and were waiting for the appreciation began to panic when they heard the news, and they looked for people to inquire about the situation.

Some people even listed the land and started selling, but they were not willing to sell it at a low price. They all added tens or even hundreds of dollars to the original price.

Then they found,

No one bought it at all.

The real controller of Las Vegas is the gang, or the big families of the Mafia. Now the five big families are in civil war, and the other families are watching and no one cares about investment.

Moreover, these families generally have one or two pieces of land in their hands. They are not real estate companies. One or two pieces of land are enough. If there are more, they are useless. You must know that the land is subject to taxes.

The land in Las Vegas is sold in the form of commercial land, and commercial land has to pay a tax of 1% to 3% of the value of the land every year. That is to say, if it does not appreciate, investors are losing money every year.

Now no one buys land in the gang and civil strife, and no one buys ordinary people.

In addition, the Flamingo Casino has invested 8 million yuan and lost more than 1 million yuan after opening three months. This is definitely not something ordinary people can afford.

The gangster family set up casinos here mainly for money laundering. Few really expect gamblers to make money. The newspaper says it is true that if you count on those few tourists, the casino will definitely lose money.

Therefore, no one cares about the land that is listed.

The rumor that there is no room for appreciation of the Las Vegas land was further confirmed. Some people began to secretly cut prices, but found that the lower the price, the less no one would buy it, because no one wanted to be a receiver and they were all in the wait-and-see stage.

With just a few articles, Hardy smashed the land price in Las Vegas abruptly.

"Boss, do you want a large-scale acquisition now?" Andy asked.

Hardy shook his head, "Don't worry, the best time has not yet arrived."

Andy paused and asked, "Boss, aren't you afraid of actually smashing Las Vegas to death? If there is a sell-off, you might really be unable to raise your head."

Hardy chuckled and shook his head, "Don't worry, as long as Nevada is the only state where gambling is legalized, there will be no decline here, and the panic will only be temporary."

Hardy is not in a hurry about the land. Business can't be done in one or two days. He has more important things.

He received a report from Henry.

Someone might want to do something on Fredo.

Fredo is the second son of the old godfather and Mike's second brother.

Those families killed Sonny, the successor of the Corleone family, assassinated Mike, and now they want to kill the second son of the old godfather. This shows how fierce the fighting between the five major families is now.

Hardy called the Corleone family, and the old godfather answered the phone.

After the greeting, Hardy said, "Mr. Vito, I'm in Las Vegas now, and my people have received news that other families may want to do something against Fredo."

The old godfather was surprised when he heard this.

He has already died of a son, and he can no longer afford to die a second.

The old godfather said hoarsely: "Originally, I sent Fredo to Las Vegas to make him live in peace. I didn't expect those **** to pay attention to him again. Hardy, can you help me Did Fredo send it back?"

"No problem, Mr. Vito," Hardy replied.

The old godfather was silent for a while and said, "Hadi, can you do me a favor?"

"You said." Hardy said.

"Help me get the casinos of the other four big families away!" The old godfather said decisively.

"I know that this will put you on the opposite side of the four big families, but I can promise that I will fully support your cause on the West Coast in the future, including using all my contacts." The old godfather said.

Hardy can feel it.

Under the siege of the four major families, the Corleone family is already in crisis.

The old godfather was asking for his own help. Of course, the other party also gave a reward. The reward was the Corleone family's contacts.

In fact, based on the relationship between Hardy and Mike, the interests of the two families have long been tied together, and it is impossible for Hardy to choose to invest in the other four families.

In fact, even if the old godfather didn't have this request, Hardy would take action to deal with other gangster families and occupy Las Vegas. He had already made a plan.

Dispatch hd security to stay in Las Vegas.

Acquisition of newspapers and radio stations.

They are all preparing for this goal.

It seems that now is the time to do it.

"Okay, I promise you." Hardy replied.

......

Night fell.

The hot Las Vegas has become a lot cooler.

The originally silent casino city seemed to come alive, neon flashing on the streets, and singing in the bars and dance halls.

With a glass of wine, Fredo looked at several gaming tables, and finally came to the bar, with his arm around the shoulder of a waitress.

"Life is often so boring, repeating the same things every day, Gina, why don't I take you for a drive." Fredo smiled.

The waitress glanced at the boss, "Sorry boss, I already have a boyfriend?"

Fredo shook his head sadly, "Do you mind changing one?"

"Mind, I'm going to work."

After talking, Gina took the tray to deliver the wine.

Fredo looked at the woman and raised his eyebrows.

After coming here for a few months, Fredo actually liked the life here, guarding a casino, not so many disputes and mess, occasionally molested the waiter, Fredo thinks this is very good.

Just then two men in suits walked into the casino. They saw Fredo sitting at the bar at a glance, and they walked straight over.

"Mr. Fredo, we are the guards of Mr. Hardy. Mr. Hardy is outside now. He asks you to go out." said one of the guards.

Fredo was taken aback.

Hardy?

"Has Hardy come to Las Vegas?" Fredo asked in surprise.

Hardy has been in Las Vegas for half a month, but apart from meeting with the mayor once, he hasn't shown up at all. Everything is under his control, so Fredo didn't know that Hardy was here. .

Hardy's car was parked on the opposite side of the road. Fredo crossed the road and came to him. The door opened. Hardy smiled and said to Fredo, "Get in the car, I have something to say to you."

Hardy went to Corleone's house several times, especially after he helped Corleone's house survive the assassination crisis of the old godfather, Fredo and Hardy also got acquainted.

Fredo got in the car.

"Hadi, why did you come to Las Vegas? By the way, why are you talking in the car? Let's go to my casino to sit and you can play two more." Fredo smiled.

Hardy shook his head, his expression becoming more serious.

"Fredo, I have received news that people from the four major families will deal with you." Hardy said.

The original smile on Fredo's face disappeared in an instant, and he turned pale with fright, a little at a loss.

"Yes, is it true, they want to deal with me?"

Fredo stammered.

Fredo was timid and fearful, but he was so frightened when he heard the news. Hardy shook his head thinking of his performance in Godfather II.

"I called Mr. Vito and told him about the situation here. He said that I should send you back to New York. At least in the family, I can have more power to protect you."

Hardy said.

Fredo nodded quickly, "Well, I'm going to pack things now."

He said he was about to get off.

But at this moment, several cars roared over and quickly stopped at the entrance of Corleone's casino. From the car, dozens of brawny men rushed down ~www.novelmt.com~ each with a machine gun in his hand.

"DaDaDaDaDaDaDa~!"

When these guys got out of the car, they opened fire at the security guard at the entrance of the casino, and immediately killed two Corleone family members.

Then these people rushed into the casino.

There were continuous gunshots in the casino, and it was clear that the exchange of fire was very fierce.

From time to time, women's screams and men's screams were heard.

You can imagine how tragic it is in the casino.

Fredo was horrified, and his body trembled violently, squeezing himself in the carriage, not daring to show his head.

Hardy frowned deeply.

At first, he thought that the four major families would use the method of assassination, but he did not expect that this time they would send so many people to directly charge and kill.

Perhaps their purpose is not only to kill Fredo, but to destroy the Corleone family's industry and power, and to combat the prestige of the Corleone family.

Hardy took another look at the casino where the gunfire was still fierce, and said to the driver: "Go, go back to the manor."

Just a few hundred meters after their car drove out, a police siren was heard in the distance, and a patrol car was quickly driving towards the Corleone Family Casino.

When he arrived at the manor, Hardy asked Fredo to arrange a room for Fredo. Before leaving, he said to him: "It's safe here. You sleep for one night. I will ask you to book tomorrow's flight. Tomorrow you will fly back to New York."

Fredo was horrified now, what Hardy said.

"Well, I listen to your Hardy."

When they came to the command room, Lanster, Henry, Matthew, Neal and others were all there. Seeing Hardy coming in, Henry immediately reported:

"Boss, the four big families attacked the Corleone Family Casino. After our patrol car rushed over, there was a firefight with them. Due to their large number, they were finally allowed to run away. Two of our team members were injured."

"What do you think?"
