Chapter 172 Contrast in the Eastern District

In the early morning, after counting his consumption, Klein discovered that he had lost more than a hundred pounds of bullets and had not slept well all night. He was woken up by Mr. Devil's timely wake-up call, and then he discovered that he had actually caught a cold.

After taking a hot bath and eating a hot meal, Klein lay on the bed, wrapped himself in a soft and fluffy quilt, and fell asleep. However, not even an hour later, his doorbell was ringing again.

People rang.

Although he was sick, and even though he was woken up by Mr. Devil again at noon, Klein still did not let go of this opportunity to make money. He led reporter Mike to start an investigation in the East District, and met the old lady who died silently.

After witnessing the police who ignored the dead but wanted to investigate the illegal possession of guns, under the leadership of Old Kohler, they began to wander the streets of the East District.

During the investigation, they met poor watchmakers, saw aggressive female washers, and saw the scene in the East End that looked like a large living sacrifice field. However, as the chat led them through an intersection, Mike suddenly

I found that the environment seemed to have changed.

Mike looked at the street in front of him in disbelief. Even though he just passed through an intersection, he clearly felt the change.

Although there is still such poverty here, Mike still notices the difference, and compared to Mike, Klein is more sensitive to this change, because this place is very similar to the Iron Cross Street where he once lived, or in other words,

Closer to the upper section of Iron Cross Street.

"Is this a better area in the East District? The residents here have higher incomes?" Mike looked at Old Kohler and tried to ask about the situation without touching the other person's sensitive nerves.

But old Kohler shook his head and said in a strange tone:

"This is the land of [passion]."

"Passion? What is that?" Mike couldn't connect this word with gangsters for a while. After all, the naming method of Luen gang is usually simple and direct, such as "Zimenger (Warrior)", "Huili (Outlaw)"

, a word like "enthusiasm" that cannot be heard as a specific preference, it is difficult to associate it with gangsters.

"It was a gang that was established in recent months. They defeated the Zimange Party and took over their territory. I heard that the leader was the young leader of a gang that was wiped out by the Zimange Party..."

Old Kohler recounted the information he knew, but Mike frowned: "Why are areas under gang control so much better than the previous places? Are all gang members living here? Or is there more money and money here?"

"None of them." The expression on Old Kohler's face was a little complicated, and then he raised his eyes and glanced at Klein.

Only then did Klein remember that this passion was the gang that he had previously entrusted Lao Kohler and other East District informants to investigate, and was suspected of believing in the true Creator.

However, he didn't say anything, and just motioned for Old Kohler to continue. In Old Kohler's view, it became that the reporter knew about the previous investigation, so he started to introduce:

“The residents living here are actually no different from the places we have been before. They are even poorer because they were squeezed by the Zmange Party in the past.

However, the enthusiastic leader is a very capable person. He did not continue to exploit the poor, but instead brought some skilled people who had lost their jobs for various reasons..."

Speaking of this, Old Kohler paused, seeming to think of his past, but he quickly shook his head and continued:

"Well, some skilled workers who lost their jobs gathered together and opened a small workshop to produce some low-quality spoons, forks, plates and other small things, as well as some food trucks, mobile stalls and the like, and then made some

The women gathered together and built a canteen.

Then they will hand over the food trucks and mobile stalls to some capable workers in the factory area, dock area and other places in the East District. Although the quality of the goods in the shops is a bit poor, they are cheaper and the people who buy them are also interested.

Quite a few.

Even if those who receive the car make more money than before in addition to repaying the car debt in installments and paying some 'protection fees', and there are enthusiastic helpers to protect it, they don't have to worry.

Blackmailed by other gang members.

Moreover, the workers' strike in the factory area has gone smoothly in recent days. Many workers have received salary increases. Those who set up stalls in the factory area have also increased their incomes. Many thieves have even given up their original livelihood and ran to

A stall has been set up in the factory area..."

"This is really a powerful person!" If he only listened to his resume, Mike might think that this was just a young capitalist who was about to become a factory owner, but after seeing the situation in other places in the East District with his own eyes, he realized this person

The significance of what is being done, but the question also arises - "Since the effect is so good, why don't other people in the East District learn from it?"

"You can't learn." Old Kohler spread his hands and said matter-of-factly, "Only gangsters can do this, but ordinary gangsters spend whatever money they have and have no savings at all, and for them, they are short of money.

Just plunder the poor people and send thieves out to steal. There is no need to spend so much effort. And I heard from Millers... well, he is a retired skilled worker. I heard from him that the cost of those factories and canteens may be

It takes several years to recover it, but ordinary gangsters can’t wait that long!”

"What about ordinary people? For example, those female washers before, they can also make some food to sell! Are these people monopolizing the business in the factory area?"

Mike asked incomprehensively, but old Kohler shook his head:

"The raw materials of enthusiastic canteens and small factories are all at wholesale prices, and they have assembly lines... It seems to be the word. In short, their products are very cheap. Although the taste is average and the quality of the products is not good, for those who buy these things,

The biggest reason is that they are cheap. Food trucks and mobile stalls may seem simple, but they cost several sulers. It is difficult to save money in the East District, and even if they do, no one dares to gamble."

"Even so, those people can go to a warm place, right?" Mike touched his chin. Although the living environment here is not very good, it is not too big to fit people in. However, Klein on the side

He seemed to have thought of something. Sure enough, just after Mike asked this question, the old Kohler said with a complicated expression:

"Because joining the passion requires conversion, I heard that they believe in evil... Well, it is very dangerous anyway. There have been some homeless people who fell into coma because of joining the passion. Although the passionate people will receive pensions every month, those who have not

People who have no money will even send people to take care of them, but it is still very dangerous. But even so, many people regard enthusiasm as the last choice. If I had not met Mr. Sherlock, I might have gone to [Enthusiasm] to gamble.
