Chapter 652: Joshua 6668

Mr. Hoff, who returned home, sat in his chair. He took out the cigarette case at will. Inside were cigarettes, cigars, and a few boxes of tobacco.

They are all high-quality tobacco. Just such a cigarette case, the value of the things inside might need the combined income of an ordinary family for several years without eating or drinking.

Even exceed some.

Usually, when he is alone, he likes whiskey with cigars. The fragrance and alcohol of the whiskey itself can wash away some of the residue left by the cigar on his oral mucosa, making every inhalation a brand-new experience.

At the same time, part of the flavor of the cigar and the flavor of the whiskey blend and intersect to form a new experience. For people who like cigars and whiskey, this is definitely an unparalleled experience!

Not to mention the wonderful beauty of being slightly drunk under the dual action of alcohol and nicotine, which makes people float like an immortal.

Even if God reached out to himself in the sky, I am afraid he would refuse!

But now, he doesn't have the mood to enjoy that kind of happiness.

He feels that he is a little rash today.

Once he reaches his status, he rarely does such rash things. It can only be said... Lanse makes him very hateful, not just the problem of affecting interests now.

The key is that Lanse made him embarrassed twice.

The first time was when Lisa was snatched away by him halfway. Although he went to find trouble with Red Heels and vented, it could be considered as finding back a little face.

But everyone actually knows very well that in the end, Lanse didn't give him face. His finding trouble with Red Heels actually couldn't solve this embarrassment.

The second time, it was still Lanse.

He had to hand over Lisa.

In the past, he had never been so obsessed with her body as during that period. Perhaps people only stimulate their greed for things they suddenly can't get.

At that time, when he could enjoy her at will, he was not so keen on her body, more just wanting to vent his desires.

But after losing her and finding her back, he felt that some of his feelings had sublimated.

Unfortunately, Lanse made him embarrassed again.

So now, his interests in Jincheng have been affected, which is the third time.

So he mentioned the Saint Bell Party, such a notorious extreme conservative radical organization, in front of many people, and mentioned their "Saint" Joshua.

Joshua is the actual ruler of the Saint Bell Party. He calls himself a saint, and it is God who sent him to the human world to wash away ugliness and blackness.

This person looks a bit crazy, but it is a calm madness. He is not the kind of madness that sees shit and will grab it and eat it without cognition. He will let people grab shit and eat it, and then tell that person, this is a piece of shit.

If possible, actually not many people want to say hello to Joshua. Those people in the Saint Bell Party cannot be seen as ordinary gangs.

In an environment with organizational discipline and religious nature, these people's brains have more or less problems.

Originally, Mr. Hoff's intention was to provide Mr. Charles with a train of thought—look, we are not helpless, we still have a way, you can try to try from here.

His original intention was to let Mr. Charles contact the Saint Bell Party. He didn't believe it. Mr. Charles' business is so big, he knows so many people, will he not know people from the Saint Bell Party!

But he really didn't expect that Mr. Charles would pretend not to know and let him contact.

He was a little careless.

But now the matter is pressed on him. If he says he can't handle it, it might not work.

After smoking a cigarette, he picked up the phone and dialed the number he didn't want to dial.

"This is Joshua, whose phone is it?"

Joshua's voice is very magnetic and gentle. Across the phone, you can feel that this is a very charming middle-aged man.

In fact, it is indeed so.

He looks forty-six or forty-seven years old, but he doesn't look old. Usually, he will wear a white cloak, with a golden cross on his chest, and a bell outlined with golden silk thread on his back.

He usually wears a pair of glasses, short hair with three-seven points, slightly gray.

His hair has been slightly gray since he was a teenager, but it has always been just gray.

His features are also very soft and good-looking. When he was young, he was a very handsome young man.

If he doesn't have an attack, or his emotions don't become agitated, then he is a very kind and easy-to-contact person.

"It's me, Hoff.", Hoff said his name hesitantly.

"I remember you, Mr. Hoff, regional opinion leader!"

Joshua's voice carried a trace of surprise after a long time, which really made it impossible to associate him with the notorious image.

"Yes, Mr. Joshua..."

"Call me Joshua, we are friends, I remember this point."

"I will also call you Hoff."

"Then... Hoff, is there anything I can help you with?"

Mr. Hoff took a deep breath, "You know that since last year, the situation in Jincheng has somewhat exceeded everyone's expectations."

"The rapid rise of the Lanse family left us without any response time and measures. By the time we started considering how to limit it, it had developed to a degree we couldn't control."

"Joshua, we want to ask you for a favor."

Joshua must know the changes in the underground world situation in Jincheng, but he doesn't know it so clearly. He listened to the rhetoric of this Mr. Hoff, who actually didn't have much of a relationship, and didn't choose to believe it for the first time, while capturing a keyword.

"You mean, 'we'?"

"Who else?"

Mr. Hoff confessed a part of the representative figures of the Bay Area interest group. These figures might not have any reputation in the gang world.

But in the upper society of this state, they are still very famous.

Like Mr. Charles, he is a major shareholder of Jincheng Pier, and a considerable part of the profits generated by Jincheng Pier every year enters his pocket.

Actually, profit is just a small problem. His influence on the pier can be transformed into political influence. Otherwise, why would Mr. Hoff and these people respect his opinions so much?

Not just gangs, religious organizations, or any other organizations, as long as they want to expand, they can't leave three elements.

First, money.

Second, people.

(Content omitted)

Third, relationship.

The Saint Bell Party itself is a very bad gang. They want to continue to expand and expand their influence, and they always need some upper-level power help.

Need some political influence.

Regardless of whether they were trying to take root in the hearts of those extreme conservative radical farmers in the past, or they were originally so crazy.

The development of the past allowed them to expand their speed very quickly, but as their scale became larger and larger, they also gradually felt the stronger power entrenched over Likalai State.

Politics, military, others.

If Joshua wants to let the Saint Bell Party walk out of Likalai State and become a national gang or even... religion.

Then he must have politicians and big capitalists supporting him behind his back.

Mr. Charles, he knows, is indeed a famous celebrity, and he also has many contacts in the state government, which is helpful for the "going out" plan.

He didn't think much and agreed. He heard David talk about this matter, and also heard about the two hundred million wine market in Jincheng.

If it was the era of the five major families before, he wouldn't care so much about this market. After all, although the market scale is very large, it is very scattered.

But it's different now. Lanse has integrated these aspects together. He only needs to swallow the Lanse family and then accept their set of ways.

Wealth, political influence, interpersonal relationships, he has no reason to refuse.

Although he knew what the purpose of Hoff calling him was, the process that should be taken still had to be taken.

Asking you for a favor, and taking the initiative to do something for others, the value produced is different.

So he clearly knew what the purpose of this phone call was, but still asked, "I know Mr. Charles and them, so what do you want me to help you do?"

Mr. Hoff lowered his voice slightly, as if he was afraid of someone eavesdropping, "Solve the Lanse family!"

"Hoff, we are friends. It stands to reason that I should help you solve this problem."

"However, I heard that the Lanse family's control over Jincheng is very powerful. Even if our car just enters the city, he can know it in the first time."

"And the police chief seems to be his person too?"

"It is very difficult for us to fight them head-on in Jincheng. He only needs to let the police catch us, and we will have a hard time dealing with it."

"I can do it if I can do it, and I can't do it if I can't do it. I will tell you, instead of promising you first."

The whole gang in Likalai State knows very well that Jincheng is not easy to invade. Joshua hasn't made a move on that side for so long, and he also knows this.

Mr. Hoff frowned after listening, "Then what to do?"

Emphasizing the difficulty of the matter is also a good way to weigh his own value.

"My idea is, let's kill Lanse first. Lanse dies, the Lanse family will definitely be in chaos, and then our people rush in and kill their cadres."

"Even if those people and friends of his can react, it will be too late."

"It's not easy to do this, and you need to exert some effort."

Mr. Hoff felt a bit bad, but Joshua's idea was undoubtedly attractive to him again, so he could only bite the bullet and ask, "What do you need me to do?"

"I need you to bring our people in, use your car, or your friend's car."

"Then you, or your friend, go to meet Lanse, and we will take action when you meet."

When Mr. Hoff heard this, his scalp was already slightly numb. If he really did this, then undoubtedly, everyone would think that he and the Saint Bell Party were involved.

Maybe at the next party congress, he would lose power. After all, the Socialist Party could not continue to put someone who was involved with an extreme conservative radical gang with religious nature in an important position.

However, he didn't refuse immediately, but said, "I'll consider it..."
