章 92: Chapter 92 Mafia Committee

  Hardy found Bill and asked, "How much cash do we have on hand right now?"

  "You'll have to ask Simon," replied Bill.

  Simon was summoned and greeted Hardy respectfully. "Mr. Hardy, you called for me."

  "How much money do we have in our account right now?" Hardy inquired.

  "In total, there's over $650,000," Simon quickly reported.

  During this period, Bill had been very successful in expanding business, especially in private liquor, high-interest loans, brothels, underground boxing arenas, and particularly in slot machines and punching machines, earning substantial cash.

  "Prepare $500,000 for me," Hardy instructed.

  Hardy still had over $2 million from his last stock market dealings, but he planned to take a portion from the gang. The money from stock trading was legitimate, but gang cash was dirty; to convert it to bank money, it needed laundering.
