Chapter 170 Death in the Light
"Are you talking about asking me or my daughter to take photos for the magazine?"
Veronica sitting in the nightclub office. Buck looked confused.
Although she had heard about the matter from Roderick, her mind was still a little confused.
"Starting an adult magazine...are you serious?"
"Rodrick seems to be serious. Didn't he discuss it with you?"
Annan looked at the beautiful woman who seemed to be smiling bitterly with the same puzzled expression.
"Of course he said it, he made it very clear, but... why are you so whimsical?"
"It's not a whim, it's just a matter of finding a reasonable way to spend money. Moreover, if this magazine is really launched, maybe it will be quite profitable?"
Annan vaguely remembered a certain well-known color magazine in his previous life, which was even listed on the market, although it seemed to have been delisted in the end.
"In addition, the filming work will also be paid. If you and your daughter don't want to, you can also ask other photogenic people, uh, your sex workers to come. Since they are all your own, Roderick will definitely not be stingy. of."
Veronica nodded with a half-smile, and then looked down at the information sent not long ago in her hand.
"We are not familiar with the publishing industry. We have no idea how to start a magazine. However, we can find professionals... right? As long as I agree, Roderick will buy a suitable publishing house. , it’s not difficult to find, it’s always this way of the world.”
Veronica doesn't think this way of spending money is good enough, the speed is a bit too slow, and it will probably leave a lot of traces and evidence, and it will definitely not be clean enough.
However, considering the appearance of the local police, even if it is not clean, there probably won't be too many problems.
Anyway, the biggest problem now is to spend the rather problematic funds. It doesn't matter even if it is a loss. In short, we cannot let the money continue to remain in the bank account.
It is true that they have been communicating with the police, but the money is still too sensitive, and even those greedy guys cannot turn a blind eye.
I really don’t know what’s going through the head of a guy who has the guts to do such a thing.
But it's useless to say this now. The person who originally carried out this matter is dead, leaving only a mess that needs to be dealt with by the living people.
At the end of the day, you still have to wash out all that money as soon as possible.
The fastest way to spend money boldly is to buy real estate. Unfortunately, the real estate in Kedax City is not very valuable, and buying land now is too risky in many aspects.
Of course, Roderick found a way beyond just starting a magazine. It should be said that starting an adult magazine was done with some seriousness. If it really succeeds, it will probably be maintained forever.
The creation of the magazine itself was actually a cover-up, used to attract other people's attention. The actual way to spend that rather problematic amount of money was yet to come.
"Miss Veronica, I heard that there seems to be a lot of trouble over there recently?"
Hearing this question, Veronica, who was thinking seriously, raised her head, and then nodded slowly to Annan in front of her.
"You should have read the previous information. When Ethan was in charge of this place, the way he treated his prostitutes was generally quite good. At least there were various personal protections, but I think it was not enough."
Veronica is Ethan. Nares's mistress ostensibly manages a high-end nightclub, but in fact, she can only be regarded as a relatively high-end prostitute in the end.
She doesn't mind this status. Even if some people look down on her, she is happy with it. After all, she also has her own problems that cannot be made public.
Because of this secret identity, she often comes into contact with prostitutes at all levels.
High-end leaders like Veronica naturally have a life without worries and won't face too much harm, but that's not the case for those at the bottom.
Ethan. Nares has always been a gangster. He is not a good person after all. After knowing that certain businesses can make a lot of money, he did not hesitate to get involved in them. This undoubtedly caused harm to many prostitutes.
Veronica knew that she was powerless to change all this, and all she could do was to find ways to please Ethan. Nares, then after a period of time, gradually became the leader and coordinator of the prostitutes of Ethan's group, trying to reduce the harm as much as possible, or try his best to remedy the harm after it occurred.
Of course, these things have their limits, but in Ethan. After Nares's death, he worked closely with Roderick, and things changed a lot.
Veronica wanted to be kind to her people, so she changed many of the rules and ordered certain places to close or be changed.
Her prostitutes might be saved, but some vested interests would be unhappy.
This part was also one of the reasons why Roderick lost many men.
If it is because of his naivety that Roderick wants to talk about the loyalty and morality of the gang and wants to preach the rules that make a large number of the members of the Nares Gang disgusted, then Veronica is too much. So kind.
If Veronica continues to follow the past rules and does not change any conditions, the power of Roderick's group should be a bit stronger now.
"We will take care of the things on my side. It's not a big problem."
Veronica had no idea what the young black magician in front of her was thinking, but one thing she had to make sure was that he couldn't appear in inappropriate places.
The other party's power may be enough, but at this stage there is no need to need the other party's power.
Veronica will use normal methods to solve the current troubles.
"That's good." Annan nodded casually.
"Ahem, regarding the magazine, I agree."
Veronica was a little confused as to why this young black magician would come to the door in person for such a trivial matter. It couldn't be because he was too busy.
In short, it is better to find a way to make the other party leave first. Although this person is considered an ally, his identity as a black magician will make people feel uncomfortable.
"My daughter and I won't be taking photos. We can't be too ostentatious. I will find some suitable talents later. I will discuss the rest of the details with Roderick."
Veronica had already thought about it, and she agreed with Roderick's current approach. Since it was just a magazine to cover up, it was fine.
"Well, I understand. By the way, I came here today because I want to ask you something."
Annan took out a document from his arms.
This is the latest investigative report from a very capable detective.
This is the real reason why he came to this nightclub today.
"As for the source of that dangerous fund, that is, the batch of arms smuggled to the south, please take a look at this."
