Chapter 694

Reggio is located in the southernmost tip of the Apennine peninsula where Italy is located.

As the capital of Calabria in southern Italy, this city is only separated from Sicily by a narrow channel. It is also the main activity area of the Italian Mafia organization Gloria.

In the southern part of the city, a mansion surrounded by high wall iron net is located in the St. daor district.

Taking advantage of the slack police at the weekend, Horace Stefano, the head of the Stefano family, who had been receiving goods all night for two consecutive days, went to bed all day on Monday and didn't get up until more than five o'clock in the afternoon.

As soon as he left the bedroom and went downstairs to tell his servant to prepare some food, Horace Stefano's wife reminded him that the eldest brother of the family, Giorgio Stefano, called and asked him to wake up for dinner and have something to talk about.

After leaving with his wife, Horace Stefano walked out of the villa and teased the two bitdogs in the courtyard for a while. He fed a pot of raw beef and clapped his hands with satisfaction in the low growl of two fierce dogs. The bodyguard had prepared the car. Antonio Danieli, Horace's deputy, who had been very dependent on for the past two years, also came from the nearby residence.

Horace Stefano wanted to know the distribution of the two batches of goods over the weekend. The Danieli brothers were responsible for this.

They got into Horace Stefano's Mercedes Benz bulletproof car, and the driver drove out of Stefano's house. Horace also asked about the business.

After a while of discussion, Horace looked at Anthony Danieli, who seemed to be a little haggard recently, and suddenly asked, "Anton, why are you always so listless recently? Has something happened to you?"

Antonio Danieli felt Horace's seemingly casual but sharp eyes. He was shocked and tried his best to control himself. He didn't show any difference. He laughed at himself in the other person's voice and said, "maybe it's that little bitch Agnes has spent a lot of time. I'm sorry, boss."

Horace Stefano knew his subordinate's lecherous temperament, continued to look at each other for a moment, and then said with a smile: "it's nothing. We don't want to fight for this. But always pay attention to your body. "

Antonio Danieli also smiles and promises, and deliberately makes an appearance that he doesn't intend to repent.

When Horace looked back, Antonio Danieli felt a sweat on his back, even though there was a cold wind in the car.

I can't help praying that something will end soon.

Otherwise, Antonio Danieli doesn't know how many days he can survive without being discovered.

Bullet proof Mercedes Benz only took more than ten minutes to arrive at a business district in the center of Reggio from the suburb of San DAAO. The car stopped at the back door of a restaurant owned by the glorious club. The bodyguard and driver in the front row got out of the car to have a look before helping Horace Stefano open the door.

After getting out of the car, Horace Stefano quickly flashed into the back door of the restaurant under the cover of his men, without any extra stop in the street.

As the godfather of a Mafia family, especially in a gang with constant internal strife, Horace Stefano's life now depends on his careful conduct.

Inside the restaurant, in a rest room close to the kitchen, Giorgio Stefano, the eldest of the Stefano family, has been waiting here. Compared with his 46 year old brother, who is still strong and tough, Giorgio Stefano, 59, has begun to grow fat. He doesn't look like the dangerous smell of a Mafia family's core figure at all. Instead, he looks more like a scholar.

This is close to the fact.

Giorgio Stefano is the eldest of the six brothers in the Stefano family. When the family improved a little, he washed white in time. Now he is a lawyer. He runs a law firm in Reggio and actively participates in the political affairs of Calabria.

However, in the secret files of the Italian police, Giorgio Stefano is actually the "brain" of the Stefano family. He is mainly responsible for giving advice and money laundering of the Stefano family.

Seeing his younger brother coming in, Giorgio Stefano got up with a smile and hugged Horace. He did not forget to say hello to Antonio Danieli, who seemed very friendly.

After a few pleasantries, the others were sent to the hall for dinner, leaving only two brothers in the room.

When his men came in and left, Giorgio also asked about the two goods he had just taken over at the weekend.

Facing his brother, Horace Stefano didn't hide too much and said excitedly: "last week, another ship was seized in Sicily. This time, 1.5 tons were lost. Colombia can't stand it. When receiving the goods at the weekend, Douglas said that he would transfer 30% of Sicily's share here, which is 10% higher than what we originally expected It needs to be discussed in detail about how to allocate the body, but basically we and the north side each account for half. "

As a coastal city, Reggio has a coastline of more than 20 kilometers.

After the civil war of the second glorious society from 1985 to 1991, with Reggio city center as its term, the northern part of the city was classified as the territory of the three families of condillo, imetti and Serrano, while the southern part was occupied by the three families of Tegano, Stefano and libiri.Because of the civil war in those years, the three families in the South were greatly weakened. Even Paul Stefano, the then godfather, died in the conflict. Now the three families are headed by the most powerful Tegano family. However, they do not belong to each other. They are just a relatively close alliance.

Because the Italian mafia is different from other countries in the family Gang attribute, there are many smaller families around these six families.

Antonio Danieli, a confidant of Horace Stefano, is the eldest of the three brothers of Danieli family. He is a small power attached to Stefano family.

Three years ago, the second glorious society civil war ended. Under the mediation of the Mafia in Sicily, Campania and other regions, the glorious society also began to set up a gang Committee, which transformed from a loose family alliance to a pyramid type gang. Only because the hatred among all parties was too deep, the current glorious society Gang committee is still only symbolic, mainly responsible for mediating disputes and avoiding another explosion To launch a large-scale civil war, there is no substantial power and strong cohesion of the old Mafia Gang committees such as "our cause" and "KAMORA".

Giorgio Stefano was also excited to hear Horace's words.

The glorious society is not as deep-rooted as "our cause" in Sicily, nor can it rely on the superior geographical position of Naples, a world-class port city. Before the 1980s, the glorious society could only make small troubles in Calabria, a poverty-stricken area known to all in Italy.

Since the 1980s, famous Mafia forces such as "our cause" and "camora" have become the key targets of the Italian government. Considering the risk of cooperation, Latin American drug lords have begun to connect with the glorious society.

Two years ago, "our cause" assassinated Giovanni Falco, a famous Italian anti Mafia judge. Originally, it tried to frighten the Italian government, but it backfired and led to a large-scale anti Mafia wave. Although the Mafia in Calabria, which borders Sicily, is inevitably involved, there is no loss on the whole. On the contrary, it is useless to take over the Sicilian Mafia Our business began to speed up.

In the past two years, Latin American drug lords have been strengthening cooperation with the glorious society.

Unexpectedly, because of Sicily's mistakes last week, Latin American drug lords directly increased the share of drugs originally intended to be transferred to the glory society from about 20% to 30%.

It's a huge business.

Thinking about how much profit the three components will bring to the whole glory, Giorgio Stefano said: "in this case, we may need to find other money laundering channels, otherwise we can't digest so much."

Horace Stefano said, "I'm going to discuss this with you. Joe, did you read the newspaper at the weekend? Last Friday, melisandro and Bulgari reached a deal, and it seems that they are still negotiating the acquisition of Johnston of Switzerland. I think maybe we can start with this company. If you don't say anything else, it's just Christie's auction house of melisandro, which can clean hundreds of millions of lira from one auction item. This kind of efficiency can't be achieved by the restaurant under our feet for hundreds of years. "

Giorgio Stefano, who is mainly responsible for money laundering of the Stefano family, is certainly more familiar with it.

However, Giorgio said cautiously: "in fact, I don't think it's proper for you to send someone to the United States last month in order to warn melisandro's Sophia Fischer. Don't forget, that woman is Simon westero's lover, a super rich man with a fortune of $300 billion. We'd better not provoke her. "

Horace Stefano said, "Joe, you are too careful. The wealthier the guy is, the more timid he is. We've seen a lot of such people over the years, just like the little tailor who has been hiding in the United States for so many years and doesn't dare to come back. Whether it's Sophia Fischer or Simon westero, it's the same to me. As you can see, after I asked someone to warn me, melisandro immediately issued a statement in the newspaper that it would not buy Versace. It was not frightened

Giorgio Stefano said, "I remember the statement was made before you sent someone to the United States."

Horace Stefano waved his hand and said, "it doesn't make any difference. Melisandro has turned to Bulgari. So, Joe, I'm going to ask Anton to go to the United States again and kidnap Sophia Fischer's two children. Our requirements are not high either. Melisandro just needs to clean up the growth share of our business in the future. As long as the woman agrees, even if she wants the little tailor's company again, it's OK. Hey, I'm angry when I talk about that little tailor. If it wasn't for Paul's support, he was a poor boy who came from a small village outside Reggio. He didn't have the ability to create a luxury empire. Now he even wants to get rid of us. He really doesn't know what to do. "

Giorgio Stefano didn't have the confidence of his reckless brother. Even if there is a lot of water, he still got a lawyer's license in the University. Knowing more, I instinctively feel that I should not continue to provoke the powerful westero system.

Hundreds of billions of dollars of business empire, more than any of Italy's old plutocrats more than dozens of times.However, Giorgio Stefano doesn't quite understand why he can't be provoked. The local rich people he has been able to contact in recent years are either respectful or shy away from them.

Now, listen to my brother said so much, Giorgio also soon loose.

According to the estimation just made, the 30% share of the Colombian drug lords planned to transfer from Sicily this time is larger than all the previous businesses of the glory society. From the current situation, as the Italian authorities continue to suppress the Sicilian Mafia, the glory society will certainly take over more businesses in the future.

Scale expansion means huge capital flow.

If the huge amount of cash can not be cleaned up and circulated as soon as possible, it will seriously limit the next development of the glorious society.

Melisandro, which owns a large number of luxury brands and an international auction house, is indeed the most suitable money laundering platform. As Horace just said, the auction turnover of a collection of Christie's auction house is enough for the restaurant and bar of glory to be busy with money laundering for hundreds of years.

After thinking about it for a moment, Giorgio Stefano nodded and said, "send more people over this time, and don't hurt the children, or it will be difficult to discuss."

Horace Stefano agreed, and the brothers continued to discuss some details as they ate.

Until he finished eating a three ripe steak on his plate, Horace Stefano put down the table, remembered one thing and asked, "Joe, before you come, shawsanna said you want me to discuss something with you?"

Giorgio Stefano also finished his meal. He was wiping the oil stains on his hands with a napkin. Hearing the words, he stopped and said, "yes, have you found that Reggio seems to have many strangers recently?"

Horace Stefano narrowed his eyes: "stranger?"

Giorgio Stefano nodded, put down his napkin and looked more dignified: "yes, Nicholas, who was in charge of those bars near the sea, reminded me first. Besides, I always feel a little uneasy these days. I know you don't believe it, but I had this feeling before Paul's incident

As the capital of Calabria, Reggio has hundreds of thousands of people on the coastline of more than 20 kilometers, even if it can't be compared with Rome, Milan and other metropolises in Italy. In addition, there are some freight harbors connecting all parts of the city, and even many stowaways from Eastern Europe and North Africa like to land here and enter Italy It's normal for strangers to appear, and they don't attract people's attention.

However, since the elder brother said so, Horace Stefano immediately became vigilant: "is it the police who are going to attack us?"

Giorgio Stefano shook his head and said, "Nazari is the guy who receives us so much money every month. The government and the police station also have many of our eyeliner. If the authorities want to target us, there will be no wind coming out."

Horace Stefano raised his finger and pointed to the North: "they in condero?"

This time, Giorgio Stefano is not sure.

It's not the police. It's really possible that the three companies in the north have made a move.

Moreover, in connection with the recent plan of Latin American drug lords to transfer more business shares to the glory club, Giorgio Stefano made a similar guess.

Although we stopped the war three years ago, the six-year civil war has killed so many people that it is impossible to resolve the hatred.

Perhaps in the past, they were able to maintain peace. This time, if the three northern companies can take all the business shares transferred from Colombia, their own strength will be greatly improved, even if they can compete with "our cause" in the South and "camora" in the north.

Even if you know in your heart that once your strength reaches the level of "our cause" and "camora", it is easy to become the target of the Italian government. However, for the Mafia, the two major forces in Sicily and Campania are the ultimate goals of many people.

He noticed his brother's silence and knew that he didn't want to see the third glorious civil war. However, Horace Stefano understood that some things could not give way. He looked fierce and said, "I'll arrange this later. No matter who is thinking, as long as I catch him, chop him up and throw him into the sea."

Giorgio Stefano continued to hesitate for a moment, nodded, and said, "don't let our family act. Call Giuseppe later. Let's discuss it."
