Red Dead Redemption: Western Consortium

Chapter 172 The blow from Bronte

As the bootlegging business developed in Rhodes Town, David's income also increased.

From the original daily income of just over 2,000, it is now around 3,500.

But this also means that David needs to recruit more gunmen to protect his business.

But compared to the income, the salary paid to the gunman seems a bit insignificant.

In fact, for now, David has offended too many fellow wine sellers and almost completely swallowed up their business. This is why such great benefits have been generated. If anyone deals with David, these people may be Very happy to help.

David is aware of these problems, so even now, he has been restricting the development of his business. West Elizabeth is just a strawberry town, Annesburg, the most populous city in New Hanover, and Van Horn Trading Port have not passed.

Saint-Denis in the Canton of Lemoyne is even more impossible now. The only place that can develop is the town of Rhodes and the surrounding areas.

From the western part of the federation, David's private wine now only occupies a small part of the area. In the eyes of some big shots above, this is a sign that David is more sensible. At this scale, it is not possible to compete with David. Fight to death.

After all, the names of the Van der Linde Gang and the Callander brothers are somewhat famous in the West. Coupled with the current security company, many people have to consider whether they can capture David when targeting David.

In David's previous life, there was an old saying: Build a city high, accumulate grain widely, and become king slowly.

Being too pushy is not a good thing. If you forcefully launch the bootlegging business, the final result will not be much better. All in all, David still belongs to the category of gangsters. The illegal bootlegging business cannot be said to be laundered. Bai, it's just a little better than Daqi's direct robbery and murder.

Manage your own base camp well and then wait for opportunities. This is the safest plan at present.

Even so, there will still be people who want to deal with him.

For example, Angelo Bronte never received a reply from David.

Saint-Denis, rue Flavian, Bronte mansion.

"Guido, that boy named Callander, did he reply to me? Was it a telegram or a letter? I think it was a telegram, otherwise it would be too late."

Bronte was sitting on the sofa, tasting red wine, and asked his subordinate Guido Martelli.

In his understanding, a small character like David would be as anxious as an ant on a hot pot after seeing his letter, and then obediently hand over the formula.

How could a gangster from a barbarous land still resist his own will?

However, Guido Martelli's words made Bronte's smile suddenly stop.

"I'm sorry, boss, the post office doesn't have your letter for the time being."

The slap in the face came so quickly that Bronte looked extremely embarrassed.

"Fuck, damn it, you're just a gangster. Do you think that because you made some money by bootlegging, you can ignore me?"

"It seems it's time to teach him some lessons and let him understand who he shouldn't offend."

"Ms. Catherine told me that he purchased a ranch in Rhodes Township to make moonshine."

"There are dozens of his subordinates there. It seems that he thought that since he had a so-called security company, no one would have to be afraid."

"Guido, arrange fifty... no, eighty good men to destroy his stronghold in Rhodes Town. Let him understand that he has offended someone he cannot afford to offend."

"Perhaps through this incident, he can seriously consider whether to become my friend."

Although Bronte owned a large number of properties in Saint-Denis, the bootlegging business was also an important part of his income.

The moonshine was not sold in Rhodes, but in Saint-Denis.

You must know that Saint-Denis is an industrial city with a population of hundreds of thousands. The profits that can be earned here are much greater than those of David in those small places.

Of course, although Bronte has a great reputation in Saint Denis, the entire Saint Denis is not said to be occupied by the Mafia.

There are several Mexican gangs alone, as well as Irish, Dutch, French, Scottish, and Chinese gangs. Many young people from these immigrant ethnic groups gathered to form gangs and divide Saint Denis.

The reason why Bronte is famous is not that the Italian Mafia can fight well and can suppress all other gangs, but that he is the best at making money and his business is huge.

Most gangs actually have very few sources of income. They do many illegal businesses, but their expenses are also high. Occasionally, they need to engage in firefights with other gangs. These are all expenses.

Prohibition has not yet come out, and the federal gangsters have not yet reached their historical peak.

Bronte couldn't make moonshine in the city, because the smell of the wine would easily reveal his location, and people from other rival gangs would often cause trouble, making it difficult to guard against.

That's why Braithwaite made moonshine for Bronte and then shipped it to the city for sale.

In the illegal business, there is a strict division of territory between gangs, but even if Bronte sells private wine in his own territory, it is still a huge amount of income.
