Chapter 1,526 The Troublesome Girl(1/2)
The iconic residence in Clinton, Wayne Mansion.
That's right, it's Kai's house, a six-story building built in the 1960s. After Kai was hired by the New York Police Department, he arranged for Afu to buy the mansion. This was originally an old-fashioned apartment building.
After Kai bought it, he renovated it and turned it into a luxury building.
Although the surface has not changed much, it is still a mottled red wall.
But the interior has been remodeled very well.
As Kay became famous, the place became more and more famous. Everyone knew that the changes in Clinton District began with this house.
The Clinton District used to be called Hell's Kitchen. It was the trashiest neighborhood in New York. Only the most ferocious gang members and the hopelessly poor lived here. Once upon a time, there was a legend who controlled hell.
Kitchen, who controls the underworld of New York.
There is no way, there is indeed no order here.
The police station that manages this community, the 15th Precinct, was once the most famous gathering place for gangsters in New York. It can even be said that everyone from the lowest police officers to the top brass of the precinct are collecting gangster money. There are even gangs within the police station.
White police gangs and black police gangs are fighting endlessly within the police station...
At night, the police did not even dare to patrol the streets.
Therefore, this area has become the starting point of criminal business in New York. There are docks in Clinton District, and there are many of them. These docks have been controlled by gangs a long time ago. During the day, these docks are ordinary docks and there is no difference. After all, Clinton District is located in an inch of land.
King's Manhattan.
Even at the dock in Hell's Kitchen, there are ships unloading cargo during the day.
But the real liveliness of the Hell's Kitchen dock is at night. There are basically two groups of workers working at the port during the day and at night.
At least 50% of all kinds of contraband in New York are landed at the Hell's Kitchen piers, because the Port Bureau and the Police Department can't control it at night.
This is also the reason why this place has become a battleground for gangs... The advantage of occupying this place is too great. Any gangster who is a little ambitious wants to get a piece of Hell's Kitchen, and the benefits are too great.
This is Manhattan.
For example, it is very cheap to bring drugs from outside to Hell's Kitchen. But as soon as you leave Hell's Kitchen, the value of all the drugs will multiply several times!
Those rich people in Manhattan will spend hundreds, even thousands of dollars just to buy something that will make them happy for a night.
Which gangster would let go of such a profitable business.
The New York Police Department has been unable to do anything about Hell's Kitchen and the 15th Precinct.
Until New York City got a stupid young mayor.
Strictly speaking, this mayor is actually a political novice, but by some strange combination of circumstances, he was actually chosen as the candidate by his own party... because his party did not expect their candidate to win the election at all. After all, they were opposite him.
The candidate has been elected mayor of New York for three consecutive terms and is deeply entrenched.
Therefore, any candidate from a rival party who comes forward will play the role of studying with the prince.
Those promising and powerful bosses in the party are not willing to just serve as foils.
Therefore, the party can only introduce a political rookie to cope with it.
To put it bluntly, they are cannon fodder.
It turns out that this mayor is really a fool. During the election campaign, he boasted that he would solve Hell's Kitchen!
You must know that the ecological formation of a region never originates from the bottom.
Or it's not just because of the bottom layer.
Without a protective umbrella, how could a cancer like Hell's Kitchen survive for decades?
There are too many interests involved.
Everyone is waiting to see this guy's joke.
But New Yorkers are tired of politicians who only talk nonsense. Instead, they are very interested in this amateur mayor who dares to think and speak.
Then a miraculous and earth-shattering reversal occurred.
An amateur defeated a political veteran.
Of course, many people speculate that this guy is just blogging and telling lies. He will do whatever he wants after taking office.
It turned out not to be.
This guy is really brave.
He flew directly to Los Angeles and invited Kai over!
And Kai really agreed to him.
Then something magical happened again.
Kay really turned around Hell's Kitchen's notoriety.
As soon as Kai took office in the 15th Precinct, he directly fired all the criminal police officers in the 15th Precinct who had serious crimes... If he left it to others, he would be rich the next day.
But the problem is that Kai is not afraid!
What follows is a series of bloody suppressions of gangsters. Any gangster who dares to resist the police will be visited by Kai's team that night. If he dares to resist, he will be beaten to death!
In those days, there were gunfights every day in Hell's Kitchen!
It even caused a large gang gang to join forces and plan to give the police a hard blow.
In the end, Kai was even more ruthless. If you dare to join forces, I will beat you all together.
During that time, the New York media even labeled Kay a butcher, and many black equality organizations also targeted Kay.
These guys just want to get into trouble.
As a result, they ignored Kai's other identity, that is, he is a big capitalist!
In this country, you may be fine if you offend the President of the United States, but if you offend the capitalists, your life will definitely be worse than death.
What's more, Kai has a complicated background.
So they were all in bad luck.
Then the story of the butcher was never mentioned again.
Next is the collective escape of Hell's Kitchen gangsters... If they don't escape, people will really die.
How many men are there in the gang? They are all scum. If they are really brave and not afraid of death, they will not be able to join this profession anymore. If they are really determined, what can they do?
There were so many people dead that no one came to Hell's Kitchen.
A series of actions followed, and Clinton District changed drastically.
Actually, to say that Kai changed this place...that's really not the case.
What really changes the world is real estate!
Yes, after Kai cracked down on crime, the housing prices here have naturally become higher. As the housing prices have increased, so have the rents... This is Manhattan!
The rent is so high that it is naturally impossible for those poor people to still live here.
When the poor left, the wealthier classes naturally moved in.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! When rich people move in, the land tax will naturally be higher. The higher the land tax, the more funds the police will have. The more funds the police will have, the better the police will be.
, if the police are well treated, they will naturally work harder. If the police work harder, the crime rate will naturally be lower. When the crime rate is low, housing prices will naturally rise with the tide... Under this cycle, Clinton District will naturally lose its title of Hell's Kitchen.
So many people praise Kai for changing Hell's Kitchen...but Kai knows very well that he has changed nothing.
The gentlemen despised the poor the most, so all the poor within a ten-mile radius were driven away... That's probably what it meant.
Smiles don't disappear, they just move.
When the residents of Clinton District laughed, the residents of other districts had to cry.
For example, in Harlem, Brooklyn, and Queens, many gangs have fled to other black areas, so the local security has deteriorated.
Later, Kai was promoted, but he became busier and had no time to pay attention to the security of New York.
But as Kai rose through the ranks, other superheroes also became more numerous. As a result, the living environment of the New York gangs not only did not improve, but actually got worse.
As a result, New York's public security has improved for several consecutive years.
And all this happened because Kai moved to New York.
Therefore, this six-story building is very famous in New York, and people even come here to check in from time to time.
Of course, it is absolutely impossible for those gangsters and criminals to come here for excitement. Kai's ruthless methods have already scared them to death.
However, today, someone took advantage of the heart of a bear and the courage of a leopard and sneaked in through the window in the middle of the night.
"Keep your voice down..." a female voice said very quietly.
"I know...and, since you knew Kai was at home, why did you ask us to bring these things back? They're so heavy!"
Another clear female voice beeped softly.
"Stop arguing! Let's go back to the room quickly, otherwise Kai will find out and scold us again."
"I understand the truth, but why should I come here with you? My mother is still waiting for me at home."
"As promised, today is girls' night! Of course we have to be together!"
