77 Drug Lord Kingdom
In this world, if you want to talk about the fastest money-making industry, the bank's money printing machine may be the fastest money-making machine, but it is definitely not the fastest money-making industry. Besides, the printed money is not yours.
It's in vain.
If you say that it is the fastest to make money, it is undoubtedly the "white powder" that is more expensive than gold, Hailuoyin.
The number one leader of the Columbia drug cartel, Raggs' grandfather, couldn't help, and once said bluntly: "Of all industries, the easiest, most, and fastest is the "industry" of drug trafficking,"
It is recognized internationally that in the dark world, the most oil and water, and the quickest way to make money is to sell drugs, which ranks first, followed by arms transactions, and then drugs. In the end, it is not a job for men to do, and sell yin.
Calabry, the godfather of the former Italian mafia, also said, "If you want to have a stable source of funds, you should have a drug trading line in your hands, and then do some arms trading business, and it is best to let the areas under your jurisdiction do it. Some flesh business, so you won’t be bothered by having no money to dominate.”
Calabry's words are regarded as a classic by many people because he directly points out the capital chain of all the hei gangs in the world.
In addition to the coastal plains, western Colombia is a plateau composed of three parallel Cordillera mountains in the west, middle and east. There are wide areas in the mountains, a series of volcanic cones in the south, and the northwest is the alluvial plain in the lower reaches of the Magdalena River. ,The waterways are diverse and the lakes and marsh are widely distributed.
In this vast area of the earth, Colombia and Southeast Asia's "Golden Triangle Region" and Central Asia's "Golden Crescent Moon" have become the world's three major drug regions. These three are the production sites of 99% of the world's drugs and Processing ground.
The national flag of Colombia is yellow, blue and red, which just shows a characteristic of the country: it produces coca, emeralds, coffee, and grows cocaine. It is currently the world's largest cocaine processing and trafficking country.
This land with countless rare birds, animals, flowers and plants is a source of drugs and a paradise for drug lords.
Colombia is therefore called the devil's city that creates "white death".
Because of this, many people yearn for it and many people fear it.
If the person you yearn for does not die in this area, he will definitely become a rich celebrity in the future. Those who are afraid of will not even have the qualification to get close to wealth and glory.
Lagus secretly took Ye Piaoling to the Ragus family's poison pin production base, because Lagus already regarded Mr. Dongfang of the Plum Blossom Mercenary Group as his "trust". Of course, the deeper meaning is only Ye. Piaoling only understood that Raggs wanted to see if Ye Piaoling was interested in his huge "imperial".
In other words, Raggs, who knows the super combat power of the Plum Blossom Mercenary Group, wants to let the super-powered Mr. Dongfang and his mercenary group join this industry. In this case, the Raggs family uses the Plum Blossom Mercenary Group to help. The power of the power will grow rapidly.
After visiting the production base of the Rags family, Ye Piaoling, who had personally experienced it, had to admire the first great person to extract white powder from coca leaves.
Laggs said that the base has long been included in the local government's surveillance scope and has not been banned because the Laggs family will share half of their profits to the local government for the government's protection.
Anyway, these poisonous pins will not be sold in Colombia, but will be exported to Europe, America and Africa.
Many forces do this, otherwise they have to do it themselves ‘in private’ and accept government suppression.
Since the 1970s, the drug planting area in Colombia has been expanding. By the late 1980s, the area of coca planting was 5,000 hectares, and the area of poppy planting reached more than 3,000 hectares.
Colombia produces nearly 30,000 tons of coca leaves annually, second only to Bolivia and Peru, whose annual output is more than 70,000 tons and more than 30,000 tons respectively, ranking third in the world.
In the "Silver Triangle" of the drug pin industry, Colombia's drug trafficking groups mainly conduct further processing and purification of drugs from South American countries. 70% of the total amount of drugs in the region are processed in Colombia.
So far, there are nearly 500 drug processing sites in Colombia, such as the Raggs family, in total, and are regarded as "drug kitchens".
The current political situation in Colombia is much more stable than that of Pablo's era, but drug production still accounts for the majority of the national production value.
Drug production in Colombia has been a horse that provides GDP for a long time, and no matter whether the government wants to or not, it will not change this important position within decades.
Only raw materials are produced here because the raw materials are relatively cheap and are easily accepted by the outside world. Even if they are confiscated, they are just slightly cheaper raw materials. These raw materials can produce different "grades" and "types" medicines according to the formula.
After leaving the production base, Raggs said: "Because of consumption costs, only 3,000 kilograms of heroin are produced from here every year, in exchange for about one billion US dollars," he said.
"Three thousand kilograms of raw materials are only one billion US dollars, which is a lot of money," said Ye Piaoling. Such an industry is indeed a huge profit-making industry. Using a small amount of labor and raw materials can create hundreds or even thousands of times the value.
Of this money, Raggs could get about 400 million, and the rest were produced and labor costs and labor were distributed to the local government at the fastest.
Raggs said that the Raggs family only got 40% of the profits, and the local government only needed to turn a blind eye and did nothing to do to get about 40% of the profits, which is from the total income. It has exceeded local tax revenue.
"This is something that there is no way. We always need to have 'legality' to do something," Raggs sighed.
His tone became much stronger when he said this 'legitism'.
Ye Piaoling certainly understood the meaning of this sentence. The principle of "official acquiescence" began to become popular thousands of years ago, but it has not been revealed.
Back at the villa of the Raggs family, Ye Piaoling met the old Raggs who had been waiting for him. Ye Piaoling said to the old Raggs who looked expectant: "The Pablo's organization was the most ever in the world. Vicious, the most dangerous, the most brutal, the most bold, but also the richest criminal organization.
Compared with the Pablo group, the American mafia is like a student in elementary school, and the Japanese Yamaguchi group is like a choir in a church. Unfortunately, the Pablo Empire is gone,"
"But," Ye Piaoling changed his tone and said vigorously to Old Lagers: "I seemed to see the rise of another Pablo family,"
Ye Piaoling's words undoubtedly won the great enthusiasm of Old Lagers. Old Lagers, who wanted to see Ye Piaoling further perform, was disappointed because Ye Piaoling did not show his "career" to the Rags family. The slightest 'craving'.
