Chapter 352 Taking Root
Two hours later, several black cars slowly stopped in front of an office building more than ten stories high.
Everyone stopped and began to look at the place in front of them.
The location of this office building is quite good. It is only a few hundred meters away from the bustling commercial street and a few miles away from the busy airport.
Such convenient transportation conditions and the rich business atmosphere in the surrounding area greatly increase the probability of successful business here.
Not only that, the distance between this place and the city center is just right, only a few kilometers' drive. It will not lead to high costs due to being too close to the city center, and can fully enjoy the various resources and opportunities brought by the city center.
There are also many residential buildings and apartments not far away.
These buildings not only provide them with sufficient temporary living space, but also facilitate their daily life.
It also means that there is a large and stable consumer group around, which can lay a solid customer base for the subsequent business development.
After careful consideration, Tono Arakuryu finally built the branch's headquarters here - Yanbian Street, Garibong-dong, Seoul, South Korea.
Although it may not be particularly prosperous compared to the center of Seoul, it has a unique charm - that is, it is chaotic enough.
Because of this, this place is known as the "crime city". For Dongye Huanglong, who has just arrived and is in urgent need of development, it is undoubtedly an excellent starting place.
You have to know that the entire South Korea belongs to the sphere of influence of the Zhangcheng Gang. If you rashly make trouble in those prosperous areas from the beginning, you will probably soon attract the attention of the other party and even be severely punished.
Therefore, it is wiser to remain relatively low-key at this stage, and wait until one's own strength gradually grows and the foundation is solid, and then gradually erode and eventually swallow up the Zhangcheng Gang.
Otherwise, if they act too hastily, even if they successfully defeat the Zhangcheng Gang, they will still have to face challenges from other local underworld organizations in South Korea.
Thinking of what happened after he took down the Kowloon Group, Dongye Huanglong doesn't want to repeat the same mistakes.
Dongye Huanglong stood still, his eyes slowly sweeping over the people around him, finally stopping at Yugong Zunlong, and asked, "Where is our store located?"
Dongye Huanglong already had a plan in mind. He planned to start the pachinko business here first.
You know, this is a very profitable business that makes money very quickly.
Hearing the question, Amamiya Zunlong responded, "It's right next to the busy commercial street."
The group followed Amamiya Zunlong in a line. Before they had gone far, Amamiya Masaki could no longer suppress his inner doubts and asked aloud, "Why do we have to go through so much trouble? In my opinion, why not just go straight to the Zhangcheng Gang's lair and wipe them out in one fell swoop? Why go through so much trouble?"
Hearing this, Dongye Huanglong couldn't help but smile slightly and explained, "This is just a way to give ourselves a legal veneer. We have to use this legitimate business to cover up our brutal and cruel actions."
"Oh? What do you mean?" Hiroto Amamiya asked.
Dongye Huanglong paused for a moment, then patiently explained, "For example, if we directly compete with others for territory, knock them to the ground, and then arbitrarily force them to hand over their territory to us, then this behavior is undoubtedly naked robbery and is a criminal act."
"But if we use the guise of operating a pachinko business to gradually expand our sphere of influence and sign a legally binding contract, then the entire operation can be defined as a formal acquisition, fully complying with legal regulations. Even if others know this, they will find it difficult to accuse us of anything."
Dongye Huanglong explained the plan to everyone in an orderly manner.
His words were like a thunderclap, which stunned everyone present, especially the full-time members. They opened their eyes wide as if they had just heard something shocking.
Not long after, the team arrived in front of a store on the commercial street.
"Okay, we have arrived at our destination, which is the store in front of us. It has three floors and the space inside is quite spacious, enough to meet our needs. According to your previous requirements, we have successfully completed the purchase procedures for this store. From this moment on, this place officially becomes our property." Amemiya Zunlong introduced with a smile and a proud tone.
At this moment, Amamiya Tsunryu suddenly remembered something important and quickly added, "However, when we bought this house, the original owner told us that there's actually another pachinko shop on this bustling commercial street."
Hearing this, Dongye Huanglong raised his eyebrows slightly, and a hint of curiosity and interest flashed in his eyes: "Oh? There is such a situation? What is the power behind this store?"
You have to know that an industry like pachinko is not something that ordinary people can get involved in and run successfully.
Usually, those who are able to engage in this kind of business often have strong backers or background support.
"The local indigenous underworld force is called the Yishuai Gang. It is understood that it is a well-known underworld organization in this area, but as to its exact strength and scale, it is unknown." Yu Gong Zunlong explained in detail to everyone.
At this moment, Dongye Huanglong frowned slightly and said thoughtfully, "Oh? So that's how it is... But there's no need to rush. I expect they'll be unable to hold back and will strike first. In that case, why not wait and see what happens? When the time is right, we can wipe them all out in one fell swoop!"
As he spoke, he seemed to feel somewhat familiar with the so-called Yi Shuai Gang, but he could not recall any specific information related to it.
In this way, time passed quietly without us noticing. After a while, several large trucks slowly approached the place and stopped at the designated location.
The truck was loaded with several huge wooden boxes, which contained equipment for the pachinko parlor.
Immediately afterwards, a group of porters, encouraged by their ability to make money, began to get busy. They worked together to unload and carry the goods. Although their clothes were soaked with sweat, they were still full of energy.
Finally, when the sun sets and the afterglow fills the earth, all the equipment is neatly arranged and placed.
