Hardy Empire 1945

Hardy walked into the Flamingo Casino. Bill, Ellen Payne, Lanster, Henry and others came here for the first time, and they were amazed to see such a luxurious casino.

It's no wonder that Mr. Siegel has to spend 8 million. It's really luxurious here. It's more luxurious than any casino in Los Angeles. Bill exclaimed.

Casinos with dozens of gaming tables, hotels with three or four hundred rooms, bars, night clubs, restaurants, tourist areas, outdoor swimming pools, fitness clubs, tennis courts, saunas and massage rooms, the facilities are unprecedentedly complete, and they are definitely the best now Resort.

After seeing it, Bill said in amazement: Why can't it be such a good place, boss, now you take over here, how are you going to run it, and you won't lose money, right?

Hardy sighed.

The problem of Flamingo is very complicated. There are several reasons to sum it up. The first is insufficient publicity, the second is poor management, and the most important reason.

What's the most important reason?

Bad luck.

On the day Siegel opened, Las Vegas was hit by a torrential rain rarely seen in a decade, disrupting all plans.

Immediately after the rainstorm, the newly built facilities were severely tested. During the rainstorm, the transformer was burnt out by lightning strikes, and the hotel air conditioner broke down the next day.

The things Siegel uses are absolutely the best. Normally, these problems do not occur. However, the rainstorm on the opening day was too heavy, which affected the normal operation of the equipment.

Then what are you going to do? Bill asked.

If you know what the problem is, then you can fix it. Before the casino can reopen, the facilities here must be completely done, including the casino and all the ancillary facilities, so that it can really become a resort.

Intensify propaganda efforts, take turns promoting in newspapers, magazines, even radio stations and TV, and find people to take photos and videos. The more attractive it is, the more attractive it is. The theme must be clear, 'come here to enjoy'.

Also, to increase the convenience of coming here, there is only one flight a day from Los Angeles to Las Vegas, which is too few. Our airline will be ready soon, and the number of planes must be increased.

Come to our casino, the ticket money can be exchanged for some chips. Do you think they are willing to come to our casino to play?

Also, I plan to increase the public bus from Los Angeles to Las Vegas. For gamblers who come to the Flamingo Casino, the ticket can be exchanged for chips to play in the casino, which is equivalent to a free bus ride.

Women are very important. When this place opens, it must be equipped with a group of high-quality women. That's why I asked you to train those women.

In order to attract customers, the casino will also hold regular lottery activities, betting $1, and the lottery will be drawn every two hours. All the betting bonuses will go to the winners. Before the lottery draws, these people will all stay in the casino, right? As long as we keep people, we will Make money.

I have already bought the land around the Flamingo Casino. In the future, I will build a racetrack, a dog track, and a boxing fighting center. Only when it is scaled can it attract more people.

I will also create a casino TV channel, which will introduce casinos, all kinds of gambling, various facilities, put on some open programs, and regularly draw prizes.

There will be gambling competitions, various gambling projects, parties, etc. in the future...

Hardy said more than a dozen in a row, and Bill, Ellen Payne, Henry and others opened their mouths. They were surprised how the boss had so many useful ideas.

Boss, you think so much in such a short time? Bill asked in surprise.

Hardy spread his hands, The time is too short, so let's talk about it for the time being. In fact, there are many ways to attract people. In the final analysis, it is to arouse people's desires. As long as they operate in this direction, they will naturally be effective. As for what to use Form doesn't matter.

A group of subordinates listened with admiration.

The boss has studied human nature so thoroughly that he can be a psychologist.

Boss, when are you going to open the casino? Bill asked.

Speaking of this, Hardy's face became much more solemn, It will be open in the future, but not now, everything has to wait for the affairs of the five major families to be dealt with.

......

noon the next day.

Las Vegas Public Cemetery.

Today may be the largest day ever at the Las Vegas public cemetery. Bill and his brother have 200 people standing on the left, HD security 150 people standing in the middle, and guests from various Las Vegas casinos on the right. There are also more than one hundred people.

The people of the Los Angeles Gang were dressed in black and looked solemn.

The HD security guards wore black combat uniforms, showing a sense of majesty.

The casino guests came from different families, and they were immediately suppressed by the momentum of these two groups. They looked at Bill from time to time and guessed that he was Bill Pitt, the biggest gang leader in Los Angeles.

Then he looked at the handsome young man in the middle of the funeral, knowing that this must be the famous Mr. Jon Hardy.

Now Hardy is very famous.

He now has several titles on his head. He is the owner of the largest security company in the United States and a Hollywood film tycoon. He has 4 listed companies under his name.

This is just his apparent identity. Many people in the underworld know that Jon Hardy is the real underground emperor in Los Angeles.

Not long ago, he killed the Irish North Shore Gang in one fell swoop, and even killed Raymond's strategist David.

It is said that Raymond was furious afterwards, but after more than half a month, there was no substantial retaliation from the Irish.

As for Bill Pitt of the Los Angeles Gang, he is just the executor of Mr. Hardy.

certainly.

Hadi's identity is that of a businessman in the eyes of ordinary people, a businessman doing legitimate business.

As for his underworld status, if there is no evidence, please don't slander him, even if it is official, you can know it but you can't talk nonsense. If you talk nonsense, you will be legally responsible.

......

Hardy stood in front of the coffin, and Siegel and Fred lay quietly inside. Siegel was wearing a white suit. He was the most elegant and liked white suits during his lifetime.

Next to the coffin stood a woman in black with a black veil, Virginia Hill, Siegel's last woman.

The woman held onto the coffin and kept sobbing.

Virginia was in Chicago before Siegel's death, and she didn't dare to come back after knowing that Siegel was killed. This time, Hardy was buried with Virginia in advance. Although this woman loved vanity and embezzled Siegel's money, Siegel's career She failed for part of her reason.

But that was Siegel's business, and Hardy wasn't going to pursue it.

Siegel loved her so much, Hardy thought Siegel must have wanted Virginia to escort him off at his burial, so he told her to come.

On the other side is Fred.

Fred's wife and children came and cried very sadly at Fred's body. After the priest finished the eulogy, Hardy gave a eulogy as a friend to relatives and friends.

Siegel, my friend, he taught me a lot, and his life was amazing and exciting...

Many people say that Siegel's life is indeed very exciting, the mafia veteran, the boss of the killer group, the underground king of the West Coast, there are countless women, killing countless people, and the final death is also shot to death, which is completely in line with the perfect ending of a gangster.

...He built the 'Flamingo' casino, pursued perfection, and hoped to develop his career in Las Vegas through his own efforts. He very much hoped that the companies here could make money in a stable and united way, and everyone could develop together.. ..

When those casino families heard Hardy's words, they all had thoughts in their hearts. Did Hardy say these words to them and give them a warning.

Stable unity to make money.

If it is not stable and united, will it end like the four major families?

...he's gone, but his story will stay in people's hearts, and maybe someone will come here in a few decades and see his tombstone and say, Benjamin Siegel, I've heard of it His name, he was the founder of the rise of Las Vegas.

Fred, my friend, is also Siegel's most loyal partner, and their friendship has lasted for over twenty years...

The eulogy ends,

People came up to offer flowers.

The white petals were sprinkled into the coffin and quickly drowned the bodies of the two people. It is extremely rare for people to come and go, even if they leave a shallow footprint in history.

Siegel was actually lucky that he did it.

The funeral is over.

Families dispersed.

However, those in charge of the casino did not leave immediately. They gathered around to visit Hardy. The battle the night before yesterday completely established Hardy's status in Las Vegas.

The underworld is a place where strength is most important.

Hardy showed his strength.

A bald middle-aged man stood in front of Hardy and said with a smile: Mr. Hardy, I am the casino steward of the Luckey family.

Hardy stretched out his hand, and the other party quickly stretched out his hand and shook Hardy's hand.

I spoke on the phone with Patriarch Lucasé. Last year, Patriarch Lucasé also helped me. We will help each other in Las Vegas in the future.

Okay, thank you Mr. Hardy. The steward's face was full of smiles.

Mr. Hardy, I'm the Cleveland Borello family casino steward. Another person came up to greet him, and Hardy shook hands with this person.

Mr. Hardy, I'm the casino steward of the Bruno family in Philadelphia.

Mr. Hardy, I'm the head of the Marcelo Family Casino in New Orleans. Our patriarch asked me to say hello to Mr. Hardy. If Mr. Hardy passed by New Orleans, the patriarch said that you would like to drink and eat roast chicken.

...

After meeting these casino executives, Hardy smiled and said, You know, I'm a legitimate businessman. I was invited by Siegel to buy Flamingo shares.

These stewards try to keep smiling.

My heart is beating.

Are you a legitimate businessman? Well, your fist is big and you have the final say, you are a legitimate businessman that the four major families can't afford to offend.

Hardy sighed softly.

In the Flamingo Casino, I invested several million before and after. If it continues like this, I am afraid that all my investment will be lost, and I have to come and see.

I'm not familiar with Las Vegas, so I brought HD security, and I'm going to use HD security to be responsible for casino security.

Speaking of which, Hardy looked at these casino stewards,

By the way, do you think it is necessary for hd security to maintain the safety and order of Las Vegas?

Everyone in charge was stunned.

Ask us what to do, can we decide this, the four big families in New York and the Selton family in San Francisco were all wiped out by you overnight, what do you want us to say?

Of course it's necessary, it's too necessary. The Luckey Casino steward rolled his eyes and thought of something, and said.

Yes, HD security has done a very good job and should stay.

Seeing the patrol car gives us more peace of mind than before.

All the stewards echoed the words.

Hardy nodded with a smile.

Sometimes, the city government and city councillors are willing to hear the voices of the people. If you are willing to see HD security stay, you can report it to the city government and the councillors, and let the city government pass the employment agreement as soon as possible.

The stewards finally understood.

This is for them to send a message to the members of parliament who are familiar with their own family.

Of course we must react, we must reflect. The Luckey Casino steward immediately stated his attitude.

Yes, yes, I will reflect it upwards, too. The roast chicken steward also said quickly.

......

Hardy had a smile on his face.

Look how good it is now, all casinos are united and loving, and Las Vegas will have a bright future in the future.
