Looking at the data that surged again, Wang Xiuyuan was extremely satisfied. As expected, taking an unconventional path leads to faster improvement.

How many merit points could he earn in a month by buying so much food to help the homeless? Not even enough to fill a gap between his teeth.

But after killing these heinous gang members, he could easily gain more than 200,000 merit points, and the rate of physical data improvement was like a rocket launching into the sky.

As for sin points, there's no need to even mention it.

He deliberately picked a fight and broke someone's leg, only to gain twelve sin points.

If he wanted to exchange for a skill or data in the system this way, his reputation would probably be worse than shit.

At that point, Wang Xiuyuan wouldn't even think about making a living in America; who would dare to get involved with such a terrible reputation?

But now, by eliminating the family members of these gang members, he could easily accrue over 400,000 sin points, without any impact on his reputation.

He finally understood why some people always liked to commit illegal and criminal acts. It's really hard for an ordinary person to get ahead by being a good person.

Hours later, the bodyguards who had been out scavenging for valuables returned one after another, and a huge mountain of green cash quickly piled up in the warehouse.

"Boss, all the valuables have been counted. There is a total of 1.13452 billion US dollars in cash here.

In addition, there are eight bearer accounts opened at the Swiss Bank. According to those gang members, there are probably more than 700 million US dollars in those accounts.

Furthermore, there are 746 illegal firearms, over 1,400 kilograms of marijuana leaves, and over 430 kilograms of white powder.

There are also some famous wines, cigars, luxury watches, antiques...

The guys couldn't understand these things, couldn't tell if they were real or fake, and couldn't effectively count them, but everything was brought back and piled up here."

Wang Xiuyuan had anticipated the financial gains from this operation, but he absolutely did not expect there to be so much.

"How can there be so much? Could it be that the brothers miscounted when tallying, mistaking twenty-dollar bills for one-hundred-dollar bills? This is a bit outrageous!

And aren't there a bit too many marijuana leaves and white powder? Doesn't the New York police strictly investigate this stuff?"

Not only could Wang Xiuyuan not figure it out, but the bodyguards responsible for collecting the money also found it strange; the harvest this time was unbelievably abundant.

These Chinese gang members were like piggy banks, spewing out gold coins frantically when hit.

Holt scratched his head, saying with a wry smile, "Maybe it's because this is New York. New York has a larger population and a more developed economy, so gangs here might make more money.

Moreover, the number of Chinese living in New York is more than ten times that in Boston, so it's probably normal for the three major gangs combined to have this much wealth.

The Chinese habit of saving is very famous; perhaps they earned money but were reluctant to spend it.

Master Kui of the Harmonious Prosperity Hall alone contributed over 400 million US dollars.

Honestly, after seeing so much money, I even want to organize a group of guys to join the underworld; this line of work really makes money.

Taking down the top brass of three large Chinese gangs can yield 1.9 billion US dollars in assets. That's much more profitable than doing business."

Actually, although Wang Xiuyuan found Holt's explanation a bit far-fetched, it did have some truth to it.

Wang Xiuyuan sneered, his face full of disdain.

"Holt, can you use your brain? If the underworld was really that easy to get into, would it be your turn?

You only see how quickly money is made in this line of work, but you don't see how quickly people die. How many people in the underworld can successfully live to retirement?

Most low-level gang members either go to prison for 'further education' or die in street brawls within five years. Most low-level thugs who survive five years have been to prison.

Only high-ranking gang members can successfully retire, and only high-ranking members of Chinese gangs and the Italian Mafia have a chance to live to retirement.

Only members of Chinese gangs don't have to worry about retaliation from rival forces after retirement; other gangs are unwilling to offend Chinese gangs unless absolutely necessary. This is the reputation Chinese gangs have earned through bloodshed.

Have you ever heard of anyone from a Mexican Gang, Black Gang, or White Gang successfully living to retirement?

The most important thing in the underworld is power. A gang without official backing might be successful for a while, but it will definitely not last long.

These Chinese gangs have had council members, mayors, and other figures supporting them as early as the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Do you have that kind of official background?

Gangsters make money because they commit many illegal and criminal acts, which ordinary people really can't do; it's too conscience-damaging.

Moreover, this line of work isn't as profitable as you imagine. Have you ever considered how many years it took these people to accumulate this money?

Take Master Kui of the Harmonious Prosperity Hall, for example. It's very reasonable for him to have over 400 million US dollars in cash assets. He's been in the game for over forty years and is now over sixty.

Can you reach the level of Master Kui of the Harmonious Prosperity Hall?

If you join the underworld, you'll most likely die within five years. If you don't die, prepare to stay in prison until you die."

Holt was thoroughly discouraged by Wang Xiuyuan; his grand ambitions were shipwrecked before they could even set sail.

Because he knew very well that what Wang Xiuyuan said was true: the collusion between major American gangs and the police and politicians was almost an open secret.

The police know where the most hidden fugitives are, but they just don't go in to arrest them.

The police also know which area belongs to which gang, but they just don't raid the place to arrest people.

Because most of these gang members live in slums, investigating cases there has too low a cost-benefit ratio and is very uneconomical.

Once a violent conflict occurs, it can easily lead to a large number of police officers being injured or killed. From investigation to treatment and compensation, every step requires money.

But the problem is that police funding is always insufficient, and insufficient funding means they can only selectively abandon some areas, with slums being a typical example.

Not a day goes by in the slums without a few people dying. When people die, the police are too lazy to investigate. It's difficult to investigate and they don't want to; they know they won't get clear answers anyway.

If a case in the slums can be solved, it only means that the murderer fell into the hands of the police due to some accident, and the murderer voluntarily confessed to these cases during interrogation.

Otherwise, it would be absolutely impossible to solve.

Or, it means the police department has too many backlog cases, and the police adopt some special methods to meet their case-solving rate assessments.

For example, high-ranking police officials come forward and reach an agreement with gangs in the slums. The gangs throw out a few traitors or their family members to surrender to the police and take the fall for all these major murder cases.

Then, they force some ordinary people who owe high-interest loans to surrender to the police and take the fall for all less serious ordinary cases.

There are plenty of people to take the blame. They either get tortured to death or go to prison for taking the blame. These two options are easy to choose, right?

Anyway, as long as the cases can be solved, the police are too lazy to investigate in the slums, and both the police and the criminals are happy.
