In addition, Baldwin's criminal group also opened up overland smuggling routes to transport products into the US Empire from the long border between the US Empire and Mexico. This is actually the same as people from the Golden Triangle being transported into China through China's long southern border.
of.
The U.S. empire is certainly not a fool. It quickly tightened control on its borders and coastlines, but it was still unable to stop Baldwin's mature drug transportation routes. In addition, Baldwin's criminal group also opened up routes to Asia.
Xu Yun has obviously experienced this before. Almost all the new American drugs that entered China through water trucks were brought into China by Baldwin's group.
In addition, Baldwin also regarded Japan as a transit point for them. Because the US Empire was increasingly controlling borders and coastlines, Baldwin's eyes fell on Japan. After all, everyone knew that Japan was the most capable country around the US Empire.
A barking dog.
The Baldwin criminal group loaded the drugs on cargo ships or flights bound for Japan, first transported them to Japan, and then transported them from Japan to the U.S. Empire by sea or air. Although this was more troublesome, it could reduce a lot of risks.
The Japanese dogs didn't know about this, which can only mean that Baldwin's mind was moving too fast, and he could do many things that made people unprepared.
There are policies above and countermeasures below. No matter what the US empire does to him, he can always think of new ways and means to solve problems and troubles.
Next is the shrewdest thing about Baldwin. Their criminal group actually invested most of the huge sums of money they earned from drug sales in legal businesses!
In the end, he actually legalized his illegal profits in this way.
According to estimates by investigators who have been keeping an eye on the Baldwin Group, the legal assets of this large criminal group led by Baldwin amount to hundreds of billions of dollars!
Because Baldwin owns hundreds of legal companies, including banks, construction companies, real estate companies, radio stations, automobile companies, large shopping malls, etc., it is impossible to count how many legal assets he has.
Seriously, Baldwin's criminal group has formed an independent kingdom.
Moreover, as the power of the Baldwin Group has increased in recent years, their illegal activities in social life have become more blatant and unscrupulous. This is why they have attracted so many people who come to him to launder money.
No one can say for sure how much wealth Baldwin made from the money empire he built through criminal syndicates.
There are even rumors that Baldwin's personal wealth is many times richer than that of his own country, Columbia!
Baldwin once made a request to the country of Colombia, saying that as long as the country recognized his property as legal wealth and then released several of his captured confidants and right-hand men, he could repay the country tens of billions of dollars.
foreign debt!
This is what he can do easily. As long as the country nods and agrees to his request, it doesn't matter how much US dollars it costs!
This shows that the huge profits Baldwin made from drugs are really countless.
Not long ago, Baldwin's drug kings fled to other countries because they were wanted. Baldwin made a request to the country of Colombia, asking the country to consider allowing them to return to the country in the near future. In exchange.
The condition is that the drug king will no longer be involved in the drug business.
Moreover, they do not participate in political activities. In addition, they will withdraw funds from the US empire to help the country overcome the difficulties of the financial crisis.
At this point, we can also see Baldwin's wealth. The most important point is that he can stop the drug king from participating in the drug business, which shows that they are no longer the kind of people who have to rely on drugs to make money.
Now even if he doesn't let a right-hand man of the drug king's level do the drug business, he won't lose anything. Baldwin can still arrange for the drug king to do other business.
Anyway, now the entire Baldwin Group has countless industries, and all of them can make money.
The large and small drug lords under the Baldwin Group make huge profits, and their annual cash flow reaches tens of billions of dollars.
In order to hide the money, they used fake names to deposit huge amounts of cash in banks in small countries such as Panama and the Bahamas.
Later, for unknown reasons, the judicial department of Colombia stopped executing the agreement signed with the U.S. Empire on the extradition of drug traffickers to the U.S. Empire. This made everyone under the Baldwin Group even more unscrupulous and unscrupulous!
They began to transfer cash from those small countries to the country, and in a short period of time, tens of billions of dollars flowed back to Colombia.
But all the drug lords, big and small, who work with Baldwin in Colombia, all like to spend money lavishly, and they all live an extremely luxurious life.
All kinds of luxury cars, private jets, world-famous horses, you can afford everything! There are also all kinds of large manors and villas. They all like to show their wealth in this way.
Baldwin especially supports his people in doing this. This is based on his experience. Spending money is not the focus. The focus is to gain status, gain face, and get what you want.
Wealth is the most basic thing. Only with wealth can people gain a place in traditional social activities.
In the city where Baldwin started, drugs really brought huge profits to the city.
Because all the people here are rich drug lords who like to spend extravagant money, the hotels and entertainment venues here are all very luxurious. Facilities such as indoor swimming pools, tennis courts, and bullrings are standard features in any hotel.
And this city is still full of high-end residential areas. Baldwin's construction company recently returned to the place where he first started and built a quite luxurious apartment building, which is full of apartments that cost millions of dollars each.
Apartments, and even every apartment has a swimming pool on its elevated balcony!
But here anyone involved in the drug industry, or anyone who hangs out with Baldwin, can afford it.
There is plenty of money!
Baldwin's current philosophy in life is that money comes first. As long as you have money, everything is OK. As long as you have money, you can handle anything. As long as you have money, no problem is a problem.
There is no problem in this world that money cannot solve. This is Baldwin's life motto.
Therefore, he only cares about money and not people when doing things. As long as it is beneficial, he will definitely do it!
Of course, the profits mentioned here are not those small profits, the profits mentioned here are big profits.
Baldwin has never encountered a problem that cannot be solved with money. Someone once asked a killer to get rid of him, and the killer's gun was put on his head, but Baldwin solved his problem with just one sentence.
He told the killer that no matter who paid to kill him, he would pay double to kill him.
In this way, this killer has now become his personal bodyguard. In addition to this killer, there are many people around him who have fallen under his command because of this situation and relationship.
Baldwin said that U.S. dollars can kill people. He didn't just say this once, he said it many times.
Facts have proved that what he said is right. If one stack of U.S. dollars cannot kill you, then use two stacks. If two stacks are not enough, use ten stacks. If ten stacks are not enough, use one hundred stacks. If one hundred stacks are not enough, use two thousand stacks! Sooner or later, it will be possible.
That number.
Todd Baldwin used his own methods to create his own empire, his own world, and everything that belonged to him.
And this guy will become a huge nightmare that Xu Yun and Lin Ge encounter in the American Empire, a big trouble that is quite difficult to solve and deal with.
And Baldwin will also face the most difficult opponent in his life, because he will meet a person who cannot be solved with money and face a problem that cannot be solved with money.
When Baldwin's money trump card loses its ultimate lethality, how long can he hold on?
By that time, I am afraid that any struggle made by Baldwin will be meaningless. At that time, he may understand a brand new truth, but it is still unknown who will win.
