One Thousand One Hundred and Two Troublesome People From Poor Mountains and Rivers

"Is there such a saying?"

Pompeo was stunned. Even though he was a lawyer, he really focused on criminal law before.

He really doesn't know much about such local laws.

In fact, there is a reason for the high fees charged by litigators in the United States.

Because the United States is governed by law, and there are thousands of laws in the United States.

Not only are there national laws, each state also enacts its own laws.

For example, this law in Mississippi is actually known by many people.

After all, it involves casinos, which is a very profitable business.

But if you haven't set foot in this field and rarely go to Mississippi, then you definitely don't know this law.

McGee Pompeo is naturally on this list.

Speaking of casinos, this kind of business is nothing new in the United States.

The most famous is of course Las Vegas in Nevada, which is one of the world's three major capitals alongside Oporto and Monaco.

In the United States, there are far more than just places like Las Vegas that open casinos.

As early as the last century, in order to make up for the excessive means against the Indians.

The U.S. government promulgated laws allowing them to open casinos in Indian lands.

Therefore, in the United States, many Indians have casinos in their homelands.

It's just that the scale is incomparable to those in Las Vegas.

As for the casinos on the Mississippi side, not many people know about them.

Because the casinos here are not on land, but on gambling boats on the river.

And each boat is not very big, it looks more like a tropical sightseeing boat from the outside.

But if you underestimate the profitability of these ships, you could be very wrong.

"I have done research, and now on the gambling boats on the Mississippi River, the monthly gross profit of a boat can be 90 million U.S. dollars."

"The most important thing is that besides the gross profit, this gambling boat can also help us do many, many things..."

Xiao Feng smiled and raised the wine glass in his hand and shook it. The ice cubes hit the glass wall and made a crisp sound.

Pompey on the opposite side swallowed unconsciously.

"You're a fucking genius! Yes, you're a genius!"

Pompey murmured to himself that he no longer knew how to describe his feelings at this time.

Who else could have come up with this crazy idea? With this gambling boat, let alone his 60 million.

Even if he took out 600 million, it would be easy to wash him clean.

More importantly, what Xiao Feng said is correct. Now in the United States, what else is faster and cleaner than this method of dry cleaning banknotes?

And it is not easy to attract the attention of others.

Go to Las Vegas?

Hehe, I'm afraid that as soon as his representative shows up in Las Vegas, news about his dry cleaning will spread all over the sky the next day.

To find those Indian chiefs?

Hehe, I'm afraid they've done themselves a favor here, and they'll make a lot of political appeals the next day.

That's real asking for trouble.

As for going to Brother Jefferson?

Hehe, forget it!

Pompeo himself is already right-wing, but the Jefferson family in Mississippi is even more right-wing than him.

Speaking of the way of thinking of this family, it is no different from that of Stephen Shannon.

Even worse than Stephen's right-wing tendencies, white supremacy, and racism.

It is said that their family is still inextricably linked with the Ku Klux Klan, and their family's gambling boats have done dry cleaning for many shady organizations.

So Pompeo didn't want to deal with them at all.

But if Xiao Feng came to build this casino, it would be another matter.

At least this Xiao Feng will not have any political demands on him, he is a pure businessman.

"Okay, Xiao, tell me, why do you need my help?"

"As far as I know, you are both rich and rich,

It couldn't be easier to buy a ranch. "

"Why do you still need my help?"

Pompei asked Xiao Feng, Xiao Feng shook the wine glass in his hand again.

"Ha, actually it's mainly because of the owner of the farm, the Snell family."

"Actually, I sent someone to contact them before, and wanted to ask if their farm can buy it."

"But the person I sent out didn't come back..."

When Xiao Feng said this, Pompey sat up straight involuntarily.

This kind of thing is normal in Mississippi, where village bandits and bullies emerge in endlessly.

In particular, this state is also covered with tropical rainforests and swamps, and most of the state are farmers and various households.

These people are very stubborn and very difficult to deal with.

Some guys are even tougher than rednecks in the Midwest.

If Xiao Feng just sent someone to ask for a price, he might annoy them and kill him.

When the time comes, throw people into the algae swamp, and you don't even have to look for them.

It was no wonder that Xiao Feng felt a headache.

"Actually, it's not difficult to deal with them."

"I can send someone directly to kill their whole family."

"But the Snell family is a big family, with more than 150 core members and peripheral members."

"They've infiltrated almost every corner of Pine City."

"The local sheriff and even the priest are their people."

"So when people outside come to Pyne, they will be alerted."

"The most important thing is that I don't want to make a big deal in my personal name. We want Snell's ranch."

"It's entirely because of the location of his ranch, which is far away from the main channel of the Mississippi River, but it has a tributary, so it is counted within the scope of the Mississippi state law that allows the construction of a ferry casino."

"Take their ranch and we build a ferry boat casino on a tributary of the ranch, so that the Jefferson family will not be noticed."

"You know, the Jefferson family regards Mississippi as their territory, if any foreign forces intervene."

"They're definitely going to rebel."

"If it's normal, I don't mind touching them."

"But now, when you urgently need to dry-launder your money, so now is not a good time to confront the Jefferson family."

"That's why we need this ranch even more. Opening a casino on the river within the ranch will neither attract the attention of the Jefferson family, nor will it attract the attention of interested people."

"If the boat can be built, it will dry clean your money in a matter of days."

"So this farm, we are determined to get it. But the difficulty is that we have to take down the pasture without alarming others."

Xiao Feng explained the main reason why he wanted to take this ranch and why he needed Pompey's help.

After listening to Xiao Feng's explanation, Pompei nodded immediately.

"It's true. It's true that now is not the time to confront the Jefferson family head-on. It's better to keep a low profile."

"But this Snell family..."

He also felt that it was a bit difficult. If Xiao Feng had told him earlier, he would definitely be able to kill this family.

Let them be obedient and give up the farm.

But now that Xiao Feng mentioned it to him, it was a bit too hasty for him.

Even if he arranges manpower to investigate, he wonders if he can get rid of the Snell family before Pesci and the others find out the money he hid?

At this time, Xiao Feng also laughed, and then continued.

"Later, I also felt very strange. You know, the offer I sent to the Snell family was very sincere."

"It's fully three times the price of the same type of ranch on the market, but not only did they not intend to sell it, they even killed the envoy I sent."

"This made me even more curious about why the family insisted on it."

“After all, running a conventional farm in Mississippi isn’t making much money right now.”

"Especially in the sweater war with Huaguo this year, many farmers are on the verge of bankruptcy."

"But I found that this Snell's family lived very well, and it can even be said to be very luxurious."

"The children of their family drive luxury cars when they go in and out, and the old lady has to take a private jet to Miami..."

"Later, through the investigation of my people, I found out that this family is not as clean as it appears on the surface."

"They are planting DM fields in a nearby cave, and they also run a flour business. They are the largest flour distributor in the area."

When Xiao Feng said this, Pompey finally sat up straight.

Sure enough, it was a place where troublemakers came out of poor mountains and bad waters. He had felt that this family was not normal earlier.

Now that Xiao Feng said that, he understood.

No wonder Xiao Feng paid three times the price, and they were unwilling to sell their farm.

"Do you have any evidence about their family?"

Pompei asked with a smile, Xiao Feng said with a smile.

"I don't think you can guess how they sell flour."

"Oh? Tell me and listen."

"The local Pastor Chandler is a very pious pastor. He preaches almost every weekend."

"But because there are no large churches in the area, he will preach on water every time."

"There is Bluff Lake near Pine City. Every weekend, the nearby believers will drive boats to the lake and listen to Pastor Chandler's sermon."

"And during this period, some devout believers will buy some Bibles from Pastor Chandler..."

When Xiao Feng said this, he found a photo from his mobile phone and sent it to Pompey.

Pompeo picked up his mobile phone and took a look. It happened to be a photo secretly taken from a long distance.

But the lens used for the camera is obviously very good, because it can take a picture of the open Bible clearly from a long distance away.

The Bible looks normal from the outside, but when you open it, you can see that the inside has been hollowed out.

In the hollowed out place, there is a small bag of flour.

"Damn, these guys are really a bunch of geniuses..."

This is the second time that Pompeo praised others as geniuses on the same day.

Because the creativity of the Snell family is really too wild...
