Chapter 435 The Thriving National Society (Part 2)
Palermo is the core city of Sicily. In recent years, with the economic development and the tilt of government investment, Palermo's economy has grown rapidly. Of course, economic growth also benefits everyone. Wrong, there are also some people who suffer financially.
Damaged.
In a manor on the outskirts of Palermo, there are many muscular men wearing windbreakers with vigilant faces. The bulges in their windbreakers indicate that they are carrying guns and other weapons. And at high places outside the manor, there are also people carrying weapons.
Wear weapons on high alert.
There is of course a reason why this manor is so alert, because a secret meeting is being held in the manor.
In the venue, more than a dozen mafia family patriarchs were meeting to discuss the future of the mafia.
"Heipi is so rampant now. In Messina alone, three small families have been wiped out. And our Camillo family has lost more than thirty people in the battle with Heipi. If this continues, we will all be wiped out.
Already."
The person who spoke was Camillo Nunel, the leader of the Camillo family from Messina, the second largest city in Sicily. This man was also famous in Messina. Although he could not be said to cure children's crying at night, the Camillo family
He also has a notorious reputation, extortion is commonplace, and smuggling and kidnapping are even more proficient in his business.
But now this Camilo Nunell is not very good-looking. The gauze on his head is from the injury he suffered in a firefight with Heipi. In order to avoid Heipi's pursuit these days, he has been hiding here and there.
Everyone is depressed.
The black skins he refers to are the SS of the National Socialist Army. This combat team is mainly made up of retired soldiers. Because they like to wear black clothes, they are called black skins by the mafia.
However, even though they are called black men, they are the ones who make the mafia gangsters tremble with fear. Without three to five times the number and weapons advantage, they can't touch these black men at all.
After all, mafia gangsters usually focus on fighting and extortion. Even assassinations are done by taking advantage of their unpreparedness. How can they have the energy and ability to fight head-on.
And Neunell's words stirred up the emotions of others.
"It's just that these gangsters are too rampant and lawless."
"No, in Bari where our family is located, we and one other family are the only ones among the eight local families. Moreover, our two families can only hide in Tibet now. There is no way to do business at all. We can only rely on some of the money we made before.
It’s impossible to survive this day.”
"This cannot continue like this. Mr. Garmena, you are our mutually recognized leader. Please give us a clear path."
With these words, the venue immediately fell silent, and everyone looked at the old man sitting on the chair. This old man was none other than Mr. Dita Gamena, the most respected member of the Mafia. He led
The Dita family is currently the most powerful family in Sicily.
In addition, Gamenna himself is also very legendary. He was a plantation guard under the feudal lord where he started. With the liberation of Sicily during the Italian War of Independence, a group of foreign bourgeoisie took over the local lemon plantations, and Gamonna was
He was fired. He sent a threatening letter to the new owner of the manor, asking to resume his job. The owner of the manor did not take it seriously, but the next day he found that the newly hired guard was shot dead.
Gamena returned to the manor and obtained lower land rents for farmers working on the plantations. Farmers on other plantations asked him for help, and Gamona accepted all who came.
After that, Gamena further secretly organized a group of brothers in the name of the monastery to continue to scare the manor owners from repenting and retaliating. In response, some manor owners fled Sicily, while the remaining ones paid Gamena protection.
fees to maintain order on the plantation.
You must know that these people who dare to buy the manor are not the ones who eat fast and chant the Buddha's name. They can force them to leave without paying the protection fee. It is obvious at a glance that they are very clever.
Facing the gazes of everyone, Garmena, who was presiding over the meeting, slowly said, "Everyone, I also know that everyone has been very sad in the past two years. The National Socialist Party is like a mad dog looking for trouble for us everywhere.
We have used various means before, such as peace talks, threats, assassinations, fire fights, etc., but the other party always insisted on going its own way and was always our enemy.
So I feel that it is not possible to continue like this. We must unite, otherwise we will be defeated one by one. After all, our family basically only has dozens or hundreds of people, or at most a few hundred people. The National Socialist Party has hundreds of thousands of people, and others
Hei Pi, his lackey, has thousands of people. This force requires us to unite to resist the other party's attack, so here I call on you to unite, friends, we have no way to retreat."
Faced with the appeal of the highly respected Gamona, the mafia leaders present did not immediately agree. This was because when the National Society began to carry out violence against the mafia, someone had called for it, but the result was very unexpected.
People responded. The reason is simple: leaders are unwilling to hand over their power.
In addition, each family has its own business. How should these businesses be settled after the union? In addition, most of the families have conflicts, and it is not easy to reach a reconciliation. So the final result is that everyone agrees, but cannot come up with a solution.
There is no way to satisfy everyone, so I can only give up.
However, now every family feels the endless malice from the SS. This is a critical moment of life and death. External conflicts have suppressed internal conflicts, so it is a good time to unite.
Of course, the timing is good, but without resolving the issue of interests, it will not be easy to achieve a coalition, so Garmona continued.
"As for unity, I think the most urgent thing at the moment is the need for a department that gives orders, a department that can direct everyone to unite us."
The people present are all human beings, and naturally they know that they can only be defeated by the black men now. So on this point, everyone agrees very much.
"Mr. Gamena is right, we should have a department that can command everyone, otherwise there will be no way to fight against the blackskins."
Someone immediately asked about this. "I have a question, that is, how should this department be established, recommended or designated?"
Someone asked if it was a good thing, but for fear that no one would respond, Garmena continued. "I suggest that those of us present should elect nine people recognized by everyone to serve as committee members, and issue various orders from there.
In addition, whether you are willing to use your family property, business, secret channels, relationships, etc. to join forces can be discussed next. Of course, if there is a willing family, our executive committee can be responsible for evaluating its value.
Convert it into shares and distribute the bonus. Of course, this is just my initial idea. If you have better suggestions, you can also put them forward for your reference."
"In addition, I would like to say that our Dita family is willing to put all the family property and business relationships under the name of the executive committee. In order to resist the invasion of black skin, we will do whatever it takes."
Garmena's words immediately made many people's eyes light up, because this will mean that the executive committee has huge power. Of course, this will also mean that if you want to serve as a member, you will naturally need to give up your family. Of course, at present
The situation is difficult for all the major families. With the protection of the joint executive committee, the benefits will definitely be higher than fighting alone. Everyone is a good person, so they naturally understand this truth, so they expressed their willingness one after another.
“We would like to join”
"Our family is also willing."
"It counts as one of our family."
"…………"
Such enthusiastic speeches brought the atmosphere in the venue to a climax. Next, each major family elected nine committee members, and the respected Garmena became the first chairman of the executive committee.
After the meeting, the mafia finally united. Of course, the first person to feel the mafia uniting was the National Socialist Party.
