Hong Kong Giant Owl: Rebirth

Chapter 286 The Opium War
"Lack of supply?" Qin Haoran said.

Tang Xin nodded: "Now the 'white powder' in the United States and Canada mainly comes from South America and the Middle East, and part of it comes from the 'Golden Triangle'. However, because the 'Golden Triangle' is too far away and the transportation is inconvenient, so the The proportion is relatively small. The market in Los Angeles has long been shrouded by several major mafia groups such as the McKenney Cole family, and we have not done business in this area before, so we have not yet contacted stable source of supply."

After a pause, Tang Xin said: "Now our goods can only be bought at high prices from those second-hand traffickers. The cost is much higher than that of the McKenney Cole family. We’re not in a good place either.”

Qin Haoran is aware of the drug situation in the world today. The mainstream drugs around the world are still opium and heroin, but the processing level of heroin is not as high as that of "No. No. [-]" and "No. [-]" on the purity.

"Heroin No. 90.00" is obtained by refining opium into morphine and then undergoing a series of purification processes. The purity can reach more than [-]%.

However, the world's first production place for opium and heroin is the "Golden Triangle" at the junction of Thailand, Myanmar, and Laos in Asia. As for the "Golden Crescent" in South America and the Middle East, the climate has not yet formed, and it is far from entering the 21st century. so prosperous.

The heroin produced in the "Golden Triangle" is mainly supplied to Asia, Europe, Australia and other places. Of course, a large part of the market in the United States and Canada is also supplied by the "Golden Triangle", which is undoubtedly the largest producer in the world.

Qin Haoran had never been in contact with the drug business in his "previous life", because this thing is considered a major crime of beheading in China, and Qin Haoran has always done things with foresight and foresight, and he doesn't want to get angry.However, having no contact with it does not mean that Qin Haoran is not familiar with it. On the contrary, he is very clear about the links of the drug trade, and is even very familiar with the production process of various drugs, such as "No. [-] heroin" and the near-pure "No. [-] heroin" , Qin Haoran knows how to produce.

On the other hand, the reason why Qin Haoran didn't touch the drug business at that time was because his place of business was mainly in China, and he didn't want to harm his compatriots.But it's different here in America, Qin Haoran won't mind if it's sold to Americans.This principle, Qin Haoran is quite commensurate with "Loyalty Hall".

At this time, I heard Tang Xin say again: "Our 'Loyalty Hall' is now mainly engaged in the business of underground money houses and underground casinos. Although there are some profits, compared with the 'white powder', the profit is still less. Brother Chen, You don't know, our "Loyalty Church" actually wants to start an "Opium War" with these "ghosts", harm them with "white powder", and earn money from them at the same time, this is the joy!"

Qin Haoran also laughed loudly and said: "Yes, this idea is indeed very good. To be honest, I also have this idea. You just said that your 'Loyalty Hall' lacks supply, but in fact it has not yet established a supplier network. .”

"That's right." Tang Xin nodded heavily: "We have sent people to look for it before, but because we have no connections, we have not been able to find a stable source of goods. And the 'Golden Triangle' controls the production area. Warlords are not good men and women, and they will not make friends with us for no reason."

After listening to Tang Xin's words, Qin Haoran pondered for a while, and said, "Tang Xin, I have an idea. If I can find the source of goods, can you cooperate with me to jointly plan the American market?"

Hearing Qin Haoran's words suddenly, Tang Xin was startled. He stood up and stared at Qin Haoran: "Brother Chen, what are you talking about? You said you can find the source of goods?"

Qin Haoran said: "I can't guarantee it, I just say there is a chance. How about it? If I can find a stable source of goods, are you willing to cooperate with me to start this 'Opium War'?"

Tang Xin rolled his eyes, and then said: "To be honest, Brother Chen, your proposal is really attractive, but this is too big a matter. I have to discuss it with my father and let him decide. However, I I will definitely fight for Brother Chen and you."

"Hehehehe, to put it bluntly, you haven't really trusted me." Qin Haoran said with a smile: "But it's no wonder, now that the 'Loyalty Hall' is surrounded by enemies, you really can't trust outsiders casually. I don't force you to do so now. Just believe me, but I can use actions to prove that I am very sincere."

"What action?" Tang Xin asked immediately.

Qin Haoran just smiled: "Help you get rid of the McKenniker family!"

Tang Xin's eyes widened, and he obviously couldn't believe what Qin Haoran said. After all, the McKenniker family was one of the most powerful in Los Angeles, and the "Loyalty Hall" had been plotting for so long but failed to solve them.

But seeing the confident smile on Qin Haoran's face, Tang Xin hesitated again, and only heard him say: "Second brother Chen, if you can help us get rid of the McKennikel family, then there is nothing to say , from now on you will be the closest friend of our 'Loyalty Church'!"

"Oh? You don't need your father to make a decision on this?" Qin Haoran asked with a smile.

Tang Xin chuckled: "No need for this, I believe my father will definitely agree." After a pause, he gritted his teeth and said, "Second Brother Chen, you don't know that we and McKennikel Family enmity, these days, many brothers and important members of our "Loyalty Hall" were assassinated by their gang. They also bought some shameless guys in Chinatown and took the opportunity to plot against us .”

"These fellows from the McKennikel family are really hateful. They dared to ambush us and injured my sister." Qin Haoran also narrowed his eyes and said, "If I don't avenge this revenge, I swear I won't be a human being! Besides, don't let these Get rid of this guy, and we won't be able to get involved in the drug market in Los Angeles. The McKenney Cole family is a big obstacle for you and me to develop in the United States."

Tang Newsyan also nodded in agreement, and said, "But, the McKenney Cole family colluded with the mayor, and it can be said that they are covering the sky in Los Angeles. How are we going to deal with them?"

"Since they have the support of the mayor, let's pull the mayor down first." Qin Haoran sneered.

"Pull the mayor down?" Tang Xin was dumbfounded again, surprised at Qin Haoran's audacity, even daring to calculate the Los Angeles market.

Qin Haoran said with a smile: "Los Angeles should implement a mayoral council system, and the city council should be able to restrict him."

He had studied at Princeton University, so he had a good understanding of the political situation in the United States.

Tang Xin nodded: "Indeed, but the degree of restriction is not too great, because the mayor council system in Los Angeles is a 'strong mayor system', which means that the mayor has much more power than the council, not only can appoint and dismiss The chief executive of the municipal department can also veto the bill passed by the parliament."

"Then what is the relationship between the mayor Sharif and the council?" Qin Haoran asked.

"The face and the heart are at odds." Tang Xin said in a deep voice, "Because Sharif has too much power, the council can't do anything to him at all. In Los Angeles, Sharif has his own words. And the council doesn't want to offend him too much, so it didn't take this The contradiction is expanding. Brother Chen, Sharif has great power. If you want to deal with him through the parliament, the chances of success may not be high. Moreover, those people in the parliament are not easy to use, and many of them are collaborators of other mafias , will not cooperate with us at all.”

Qin Haoran just laughed: "It's just human-made, I don't believe it, Sharif's position as mayor is really so unbreakable?"

At this time, the old doctor who had just entered the side hall to help Jiang Yurou treat the wound came out. Qin Haoran immediately stood up and greeted him: "Doctor, how is my sister's condition?"

The old doctor said: "It's okay, it's just a skin trauma, just pay attention to disinfection. But she has lost a lot of blood, she needs to rest and recuperate, and she can't move around casually, so as not to tear the wound."

"Thank you doctor." Qin Haoran heaved a sigh of relief when he heard that.

Seeing Jiang Yurou walking out accompanied by Su Yi, the wound on her left arm has been bandaged, and her complexion has improved a lot.

At this time, Qin Haoran turned to Tang Xin and said, "Mr. Tang, before we get rid of the McKenniker family, I think we have to stay with you for a while."

"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter, I have plenty of places here. And we are all Chinese, living here, you will definitely not feel that this is a foreign land." Tang Xin's attitude towards Qin Haoran was very enthusiastic at this time.

Intuitively, he felt that Qin Haoran was really the key to eradicating the McKenniker family.

"Thank you, Mr. Tang." Qin Haoran said with a smile: "I think you also need to go back and discuss with your father what I just told you, and we also want to take a break, I don't know..."

"Oh, Ah Zhong, quickly take Brother Chen and the others to rest in the guest room upstairs, and ask the chef outside to cook some delicious food for Brother Chen and the others." Tang Xin immediately ordered his subordinates, and Smiling to Qin Haoran: "Brother Chen, take a rest first, I will discuss with my father about dealing with the McKenniker family and the 'white powder', and then I will discuss with you a long-term plan, what do you think?"

Qin Haoran smiled and nodded: "This is very good, then I will not hinder you, go back and rest first."

After all, Qin Haoran supported Jiang Yurou, and Christon and the others followed Ah Zhong to the guest room.
