The Tyrant Billionaire

The Spanish Gang.

Dani sat in his boss chair, with a cigar in his mouth, eyes slightly closed, and the record player was playing "Scarborough Fair."

Upon first hearing this song, Dani was astonished and loved it immensely. He privately recorded a copy of the record by leveraging his connections at the radio station.

"Knock knock!"

The office door was knocked on.

Dani furrowed his brow slightly.

He hated being disturbed at these times.

"Come in."

The office door opened, and a man in his forties walked in, relatively slender, with a somewhat elongated face, wearing glasses, looking more like a schoolteacher.

This man was Charles Simon, the new strategist of the Spanish Gang.

Before Simon could speak, Dani waved him off, gesturing for him to sit and listen to the song before continuing.

Simon obediently sat on the sofa, waiting respectfully.

Two minutes later, when the song ended, Dani turned to Simon. In truth, Dani was not satisfied with this new strategist (gang advisor), Simon. Whether in managing business affairs or communicating with others, Simon was far inferior to Bernstein.

Previously, Bernstein was his right hand man, but now Simon was merely capable of running errands. While he could follow orders, he lacked the ability to handle broader strategies.

There was no choice Bernstein was dead.

After searching among his men, Simon was the only viable option left, so Dani had no choice but to elevate him.

"Simon, how did the loan matter go?" Dani asked.

Simon immediately stood up respectfully and reported, "Boss, the loan matter has been settled. Here's the check."

Saying this, he placed a cash check on the table with both hands $300,000.

This was painstakingly amassed through mortgaging stocks, investment bonds, real estate, almost emptying his savings to borrow this much money from the bank.

But as long as this venture succeeded, Dani believed he would quickly recover this sum.

"Simon, contact Colombia again and inform them that we're ready here. Let us know when General Gustavo can meet us" Dani instructed.

"Yes, boss. I'll contact them right away," Simon quickly rushed out.

After the last failed drug deal, a massive loss was incurred: $300,000 in cash was stolen, the goods were lost, strategist Bernstein was killed, and General Gustavo's trusted aide was also killed.

This event offended the General greatly and the investigations yielded no clues.

Explaining the situation clearly was one thing, deepening friendships and Continuing with procurement was another.

.After the coke powder supplies was caught off the prices have almost doubled.

Simon returned hours later.

"Boss, everything is ready," Simon said.

Dani pondered.

"Simon, book my flight for the day after tomorrow."

Dani planned to arrive two days early, waiting in Bogota for the general to return, showing more sincerity.

"Boss, should I arrange a few guards, or is one enough?" Simon asked.

"Just one will do, bringing more won't make a difference."

General Gustavo held significant power in Colombia, ranking third in the military, commanding 10,000 personal. Even if they wanted to harm him, it would be futile.

"I understand, boss."

Simon looked at Danny, then continued, "Boss, there's something I need to report. Cranston and Beekman haven't settled their accounts this month. I asked around, and many haven't seen them in a while."

Cranston was involved in the investigation of the casino robbery, he suspected Hardy and his group. Later, he joined up with his friend Beekman, directly raiding Hardy's headquarters, only to be killed by Henry and others.

Dani vaguely remembered assigning him to investigate someone from the Austrian gang, and shortly after, the drug robbery occurred. Dani had almost forgotten about it until Simon mentioned it.

Dani focused on the big picture and external affairs, such as dealings with politicians and officials, leaving gang internal affairs to Bernstein.

Now, internal matters were in disarray.

Losing over a dozen members went unnoticed.

If not for Simon's new role, asking each department to account for themselves, the disappearance of Cranston and Beekman would've gone unnoticed.

Dani furrowed his brow, In two days he would be heading to Colombia, which was currently the most critical matter.

Before leaving, he had many other things to attend to.

There was simply no time to focus on anything else.

"Simon, investigate and find out what happened to Cranston and Beekman. Report back when you have results," Dani said.

"I understand, boss."

The next day, Simon arranged for Dani's travel preparations and booked two tickets to Bogota, Colombia.

Hardy was tinkering with guns in the armory.

Since the security company arranged for firearm permits, Hardy had been avidly stocking the underground armory with various weapons.

Pistols, submachine guns, sniper rifles, shotguns, even heavy machine guns all the famous guns from World War II were there.

In addition to these, there were various grenades, explosives, and other lethal weapons.

They formed a reinforced camp that was more than sufficient for their needs.

Most of these weapons were bought from Old Mike. This was a huge order. Old Mike gave Hardy and the others a very favorable price, and they paid in installments.

Hardy was short on funds.

The few tens of thousands of dollars in his possession were barely enough to support over forty subordinates.

After this period of expansion, the security company's personnel had reached 45.

Hardy felt this was sufficient, he stopped recruiting new members and instead focused on internal training, aiming to quickly establish internal cohesion after grouping.

Just then, someone arrived at the armory, respectfully addressing Hardy, "Boss, Supervisor Lancer requests your presence in the study. He has an important report."

Hardy set down his gun and went to the study.

Lancer closed the door and informed Hardy, "Just received intel, Spanish Gang has arranged travel procedures and tickets for Dani to Colombia. The flight is the day after tomorrow at 10 o'clock, arriving at Bogota airport at 9 o'clock in the evening."

"There's only one escort accompanying."

"The day before yesterday, we received information that Dani's loan was about to come through a total of $300,000 in cash."

"Yesterday, we received further information that the Spanish Gang contacted Colombia again. The content is unknown, but it's likely regarding scheduling a meeting."

"Today, Dani booked the flight. He will leave the day after tomorrow."

"All the pieces are in place."

This information laid out the entirety of Dani's upcoming actions in Hardy's mind.

Now it was up to Hardy to decide his next move.

A smile crept onto Hardy's face as he looked at Lancer and said, "Lancer, our opportunity has finally arrived."

"Are you ready to act?"

"Yes!"

Hardy called for Henry and Matthew, "I have a very important mission for you both. Tomorrow, you'll take a plane to Bogota, Colombia. I've already arranged for the tickets."

Henry and Matthew nodded, they had no idea what they were about to do but accepted the mission without hesitation.

Hardy then shared all the collected information with them, concluding, "Dani is heading to Colombia with $300,000 in cash."

"Boss, how do you want us to proceed?" Henry asked.

"You'll arrive in Colombia a day early. See if there's an opportunity to take out Dani and his bodyguard quietly. It would be best if they disappeared without a trace and bring back that check."

"If discreet isn't possible, then openly take them out on the streets."
