Chapter 91 Patience
"Monica, do you have any misunderstandings about me?"
Alan said with a smile, and then saw Monica turn around, and he followed his only son. The men he brought behind him wanted to come over but were stopped by Allen.
Alan followed Monica to the side of the building, and he took out a pack of cigarettes and handed it to Monica.
"This is produced in our fields and tastes very good. Try it."
Monica opened it and lit one, and asked.
"Answer me, Allen, what I just said."
Alan shook his head.
"It's a pity, Monica, I haven't seen Kramer for many years. It's true that he stayed with us for a few days before, but we don't know where he went after that."
Monica sneered.
"Why are there so many powerful mutants in your family now?"
"Because we have developed a training mechanism and treat everyone equally."
As Allen said, Monica didn't intend to continue talking to Allen like this, she spoke directly.
"If you are willing to hand over Kramer, we can cooperate and benefit each other."
Alan said helplessly.
"I really can't do anything about this, because Kramer is not with us."
Monica laughed and pointed outside.
"Forget about cooperation. Go back, Alan."
Before Alan could say anything, Monica had already jumped onto the roof. Alan returned to the gate of the compound. His men came over one after another. Alan smiled.
"Let's go to the next place."
Alan came out this time to discuss cooperation and to win over some people. He was preparing for a big event.
Alan now has 11 towns under his control, all of which are productive towns. There are more than 20 other towns under his protection.
The management method adopted by Alan is different from that of other towns on the grassland. He adopts a win-win system. If you want to stand at the top, you have to squeeze those who are weaker than you. Layer by layer, in the end, the lowest level of the town can only squeeze other surrounding towns.
This approach is very simple and effective. Because everyone gets benefits, they will naturally gather under the banner of the Hillman family.
Those towns that were not fully managed by the Hillman family were to allow the lowest level people in the Hillman family to have a certain living space. Otherwise, with the current strength of the Hillman family, those towns could be easily taken over.
Allen knew very well what was going on in this grassland. It was a zero-sum game. As long as you stood at the top and controlled a large amount of resources, as long as you always occupied this position, no matter how much you threw out, it would come back to your hands.
The other major families saw this very clearly. Their approach was actually the same as Allen's, but Allen was better than them in that it was obvious, while they were hidden.
The car slowly drove out of the town. Allen leaned against it comfortably. He looked at the situation here. It was developing very well, but this model would definitely not work in the future. Monica was gradually becoming an enemy of capital.
Once you become an enemy of capital, then in the future, the entire grassland will be an enemy.
Moreover, Monica's model is difficult to develop quickly. Allen has already investigated the situation in the town currently under Monica's jurisdiction in detail. Sure enough, the development is much slower than other large and medium-sized families, because it is difficult for small capital to bet all their assets on the same goal.
Many things can only be done by big capital, so Monica's current system will definitely collapse at some point in the future, and those who want to become big capital will definitely resent Monica. Over time, the place she manages will completely collapse.
Allen laughed. He knew that other families on the grassland were very hostile to Hillman and Monica, but this was inevitable.
In order to keep the place he managed strong and competitive for a long time, Allen used a lot of means in secret to make the goods they produced absolutely competitive on the grassland.
The speed of the car was completely raised after leaving the town. Allen was going to the Wang family this time. Now he had to cooperate with the Wang family because the Wang family had a very big natural advantage. Their housing industry had spread all over many places. As long as there was a housing industry, the goods could be sold smoothly.
But Allen was worried that the Chen family in the west had begun to rub their hands. The Chen family seemed to be planning to take action against several families and directly annex them. This approach would lead to the start of the war in advance.
If there is a problem at one point, it will affect the overall situation of the grassland. Allen does not want the war to break out now because the time is not ripe. Many families also think so. The research and development of weapons and ammunition is still on the way.
It will take at least 5 years. The war can make a big change, and it can attract very high output value and solve the problem of excess population.
This is the real idea of most families. Allen has long understood their ideas. Every big family has built a military factory. They are producing and developing weapons. Although mutants are good weapons, the number of mutants is too scarce.
Time passed by minute by minute, and Allen came to the main town of the Wang family. Allen was warmly welcomed as soon as he went there. As Allen thought, Wang Ming also wanted to cooperate with Hillman.
"Mr. Wang Ming, good afternoon."
Allen stretched out his hand, and the short and fat man in front of him took Allen's hand enthusiastically and said.
"Oh, I already prepared the meal as soon as I heard you were coming over. Let's eat first and talk while we eat."
Wang Ming looked a little stupid, but he was just pretending. He took over everything in the Wang family very well, and expanded the Wang family a lot with his wrists.
Being able to become the patriarch of a big family on this grassland is not something that a fool can do. People in some small families feel that Wang Mingren is very easy to get along with, and they will unknowingly get close to them and cooperate deeply with them.
This is what Wang Ming does, tying many people to himself, and when the time comes to form a complete chain of interests, these people will not be able to escape, and Wang Ming has the final say on what to do next.
Now some small and medium-sized families around the entire Wang family are tied up by the Wang family. They have no way to get rid of the Wang family and can only obey the Wang family. Once they get rid of their economy, their economy will suffer heavy losses.
Therefore, even if the Wang family puts forward some harsh conditions, these families can only passively accept them and have no right to say no.
Soon Allen was sitting at the dinner table with a few confidants. Wang Ming started bragging and respected Allen very much. After all, he was one of the founders of this grassland.
After three rounds of drinking, Wang Ming seemed a little drunk. He pulled Allen and said.
"Brother Allen, we have a surplus of food reserves here recently. Please see if you need food over there."
Allen understood immediately after hearing this, and he shook his head.
"We also have a surplus of food over there."
Wang Ming said cheerfully.
"I heard that some towns around your territory are experiencing food shortages. Do you want us to work together?"
Allen nodded this time. The unlucky ones were those on the outskirts of the Hillman family's territory. Allen knew very well that it would be difficult to have a surplus of food, unless there was a problem with the food.
The problem can only be in terms of quality. The grains should be very bad, but I'm afraid Wang Ming wants to sell them at normal grain prices, Allen said.
"Do you think the price can be cheaper?"
Wang Ming has some differences.
"Hey, Brother Allen, aren't you making things difficult for me? It's not like you don't know the current food situation. Planting technology has not been developed in many places, resulting in a very underdeveloped food industry. You can't even feed your own people. You can only Purchase. This batch of grain is not only of good quality, but also reasonably priced.”
Allen no longer talked around in circles with Wang Ming, but directly nodded and agreed to Wang Ming's request, and then made his own request. Allen hoped that his products could be sold in some of Wang's stores.
Wang Ming agreed immediately without any hesitation. The two of them first drew up a simple contract, and then the details would be slowly discussed and filled in.
It was not until 11 o'clock in the evening that Allen was a little drunk.
"Brother Allen, stay here and let's have a good drink all night."
Allen smiled.
"I really have something else to do."
Wang Ming waved his hands enthusiastically, and after seeing Allen off, Wang Ming laughed, and the faces of several people around him who were still apologizing changed.
"That guy wants to use our channels to open up the sales channels for their products in the west and north. Aren't we shooting ourselves in the foot by doing this? Dad."
One of the young men said, and Wang Ming laughed.
"The only thing we can do is let them put on the shelves some products that have no conflict with us. After all, the food in our hands is already moldy. If we don't take action, we will be in trouble."
The Wang family had a large amount of grain that began to deteriorate due to improper storage, and the quality of the grain itself was not very good. It was purchased from some small families at very low prices.
Now as long as you can sell according to the normal market price, you can make money 100%.
But the food must be sold before there is a complete problem, so the Hillman family is a good choice. Wang Ming has talked to many families, but many families said they don't need it.
On this grassland, some families standing at the top knew each other what was going on. Wang Ming laughed, patted his son on the shoulder and said.
"The game has just begun. The Hillman family is not simple, but we are not the kind of people who are willing to suffer losses."
1am
Allen's car stopped and he looked at a small town on the mountains. That place was once the site of the Hillman family. Allen would come back once every year.
Although there is no trace of the Hillman family's past, the feeling of looking down from above is still the same.
"Let's stay inside tonight."
The convoy quickly went up the mountain. Allen found a hotel, asked for some rooms, and planned to rest.
Everything in the future will start around a few major families. Allen knows very well that whoever can take the lead at the beginning of the war will be able to take the lead. This grassland must always be unified.
Before the gods come out, whoever can complete the unification will be the master of mankind on this grassland. Allen is thinking about the future all the time, and the Hillman family will become the master of this land.
Allen is 100 years old. He doesn't know where his life will end. Although he is in good health now, it is certain that this mutant's lifespan is not unlimited.
Allen's eldest son has died a long time ago. He did not become a mutant. This is the pain in Allen's heart. Although he still has more than 20 children, compared with his eldest son, these children have no talents.
Alan was not at ease no matter who the Hillman family would be in the hands of in the future, so Alan decided to eliminate the enemies that might threaten the family first, so that the children could at least rest assured.
The Hillman family had many enemies, but the only one that made Alan helpless was the Angus family. This family was too solid, just like Jed before, and it was difficult to hurt him no matter what.
Alan's layout this time was to use the hands of other big families to reduce the power of the Angus family, and then when the war broke out, the power of the Angus family would be further consumed.
Some layouts had been completed in advance. It was not easy to do this. Alan was exhausted. Tonight's grain transaction was also part of the layout and was completed smoothly.
Alan actually knew that Wang Ming would not let the products that conflicted with them go on the shelves, but he still chose to suffer a loss, because compared to the loss of interests, Alan would rather see problems with the Angus family.
Alan lay on the bed, looking at some information on his mobile phone. Now some new entertainment industries have begun to go online, and humans are addicted to such entertainment, especially gambling.
Gambling is a very important means for Allen to reduce the power of the Angus family. Now the Angus family has also participated in the gambling industry because the return rate of this industry is very high.
Allen smiled, and soon he turned out some old photos, looking nostalgically at his young and beautiful wife and lovely son. The picture of the happy family made Allen miss it very much.
Allen often dreams of the past recently. He sighed helplessly. At this time, a phone call came in. Allen picked up the phone. The caller talked about a lot of business matters. Allen hummed.
"Just keep an eye on it."
After hanging up the phone, Allen showed an angry expression. Now his mutant army has been controlled by Kramer. They only listen to Kramer. Whatever Allen needs them to do, they must go through Kramer.
Although Allen wanted to tell Monica about Kramer countless times, he still held back. This kind of thing is to raise a tiger for trouble, but Allen doesn't care, because Kramer is the most important card to deal with Monica in the future, so he can't play it now.
No matter how strong Monica is, she cannot face a powerful mutant group. Her physical strength is not unlimited.
"That's right. I can only endure it for the time being."
