Byron City.
Although he had signed the contract and planned to slowly hand over the legitimate business to Jones, Chung Shen-soo knew that things would not be so simple.
If he wanted to make a fortune in Byron City through the bootlegging business, there was a threshold that he could not bypass, and that was the Federation's Prohibition Agents!
Even though he had made a lot of preparations, and could even store the goods in secret and transport them secretly, whether it was the bar or the pharmacy, there was still a risk of exposure!
As long as those agents searched everywhere like mad dogs, there would always be flaws and clues.
Therefore, he still had to get rid of them!
"Actually … this is not too difficult. Looking at the situation in Byron City, I don't know about the agents in other cities, but most of the Prohibition Agents in this city have been f * cking paid!"
Otherwise, the three big gangs would have been shut down countless times for doing such a blatant bar business.
Perhaps there were still a few agents who were loyal to their duties, but they were already very few.
When their superiors had been paid, there was not much meaning to it.
"Of course, those are the eyes of the Nuoding Hill family, not mine. I should recruit one of my own among the Prohibition Agents, and even use the power of the Federation to destroy the rival's bar …"
"But all of this is in the future."
The location of the pharmacy, as well as the various hiring plans, made Chung Shen-soo extremely busy.
At the same time, the nearby gang members also heard about the Whisperer Bar, and also knew that the Nuoding Hill family had reached a settlement with Li Wei from the West. They immediately understood that this bar had a powerful background, and did not deliberately come to cause trouble.
This also made hiring a lot easier, and he easily found a few waiters and waitresses.
After a brief interview, Chung Shen-soo decided to hire all of them, and at the same time, he could not let Jones come to the bar again.
After all, teenagers at that age were the most likely to learn bad things.
…
Federal Calendar Year 667, 1st September.
The Federation of this world also divided a year into twelve months, with thirty days in a month and twenty-four hours in a day. It was said that this mysterious division came from a god worshiped by a church, who was in charge of the authority of time.
In the past, Li Wei had never taken it seriously, but after Chung Shen-soo heard about it, he was still a little surprised.
The slums.
Outside the Mojitos' shack.
Chung Shen-soo and Jones were ready to move.
Previously, he had no choice but to live here. Now that the conditions were better, he naturally wanted to live in a higher class neighborhood.
At least, in Li Wei's memory, the security in the slums was terrible. Occasionally, a few corpses would be found in the sewers. Even the police detectives would load their guns in advance when they arrived, as if they were entering a war zone.
From Chung Shen-soo's point of view, everything in his old home could be thrown away, but Jones insisted on coming back.
They hired a carriage, and the two of them moved some furniture, mainly items of special significance, onto the carriage. The rest could be thrown away.
Of course, they would soon be found by the owners who needed them more. The residents of the slums were all experts in calculating.
The commotion in Mojito's house naturally attracted the attention of the people around.
A few children curiously looked at this scene, and some adults' eyes were filled with envy.
They vaguely knew what had happened before, and understood that having a bar in Mojito's house was no different from having a money printing machine.
Now, they had successfully broken free from the swamp of the slums. This legend would become an idol for many people, inspiring generations of slum kids to strive for it.
"Li Wei, are you guys moving?"
Miss Wesley happened to pass by while delivering bread and greeted them.
"Yes, I've rented an apartment on Merlin Avenue in the Count District. You're welcome to visit."
Chung Shen-soo replied with a smile.
The Count District was a well-known gathering place for the middle class in Byron City. There were hospitals, department stores, police stations, and public carriages in the area. It was a safe and convenient place to live.
Hearing this, the people of the slums couldn't help but feel even more envious.
A healthy and lively girl with two braids, freckles on her face, and a flowery plaid skirt immediately walked out. "Hi, Jones!"
"Hi, Melissa!"
Jones saw the girl and greeted her with some awkwardness.
Melissa, on the other hand, asked Chung Shen-soo in a natural and unrestrained manner, "Is your bar still hiring? I was fired from the coffee shop, and I'm looking for a job. "
Looking at Jones' pleading eyes, Chung Shen-soo smiled and nodded. "Sure, go find Smith. Tell him I said 30 cents a day!"
Melissa's eyes lit up, and she immediately agreed. She even rolled up her sleeves and wanted to help the two brothers move, but Chung Shen-soo rejected her.
After busying themselves for a while, the two drove the carriage to the Count District, 25 Merlin Avenue.
A three-story apartment appeared in front of them. There was a metal fence in front of the door, and there was a small garden between the door and the living room.
At this moment, Carmela and Jennifer heard the noise and ran out excitedly.
"Yes, Carmela, your dressing table, and Jennifer's toy cabinet are all here …"
Chung Shen-soo smiled and patted the heads of the two lolis. At the same time, he asked, "Are you used to the new room?"
"Of course, I like a bedroom with a private bathroom," Carmela replied with a smile.
"It's just that Jennifer might be too young to live on her own," Camilla replied with a smile.
When she said this, Jennifer, who was beside her, rolled her eyes.
This made Chung Shen-soo unable to help but laugh. At the same time, he felt that the children of poor people matured earlier.
The family entered the apartment and began to enjoy dinner.
This time, Chung Shen-soo bought the food directly from outside. The staple food was white bread, turkey, french fries, steak, and all kinds of jams.
"Tomorrow, the home tutor I hired for you will be here. We'll start with the simplest lesson, the alphabet …"
Holding a glass of sweet wine, Chung Shen-soo said with a smile.
No matter how naughty or smart a child was, they were about to experience the horrors of homework.
"And you, Jones, you have to learn from the accountant I hired first."
He glanced at Jones, who was laughing weirdly next to him, and added, which made the latter cry out, "Why?"
"Hmph, you can't understand financial reports, and you still want to start a company and make a lot of money?"
Chung Shen-soo reprimanded with extreme disdain. "If you want to take over a certain business, this is a necessary procedure. Otherwise, I won't be at ease."
"Alright, alright …"
Jones clutched his head, feeling a headache coming on. He seemed to be thinking about his miserable life in the future, and he was starting to get a headache now.
Carmela and Jennifer looked at each other and snickered.
