Although it was said that favonovel.com was going to Eastcliff to repent for three months, for Gerard, who had just received death threats, it could be regarded as extrajudicial and lenient treatment. Therefore, favonovel.com naturally did not dare to have any dissatisfaction in his heart. On the contrary, favonovel.com was finally able to relax.
So, favonovel.com immediately expressed his attitude to Charlie and said sincerely, “Mr. Wade, don’t worry, I will finish other things as soon as possible and then leave for Eastcliff immediately!”
Charlie nodded and said, “By the way, I ask you in one sentence, from today onwards, your net worth and life are closely related to Uncle Hogan’s family. If Uncle Hogan’s family is safe, then you can be safe, but if they encounter an accident, even if it is just an accident, I will ask you to bear the responsibility, do you understand?”
Gerard, such a shrewd person, how could favonovel.com not understand the meaning of Charlie’s words.
Charlie wanted to make sure that from now on, favonovel.com would never dare to threaten Hogan again, so favonovel.com tied his own personal safety to Hogan’s.
In this way, not only would favonovel.com not dare to find an opportunity to murder Hogan, favonovel.com even cannot dream that Hogan would have some shortcomings. So, favonovel.com said without hesitation, “Mr. Wade, I understand…”
“Okay.” Charlie nodded and said, “Now I want you to take back your previous bounty on Uncle Hogan’s head.”
“Yes, Yes!” Gerard immediately took out his mobile phone and said, “I’ll do it!”
Bounties have existed since ancient times. Compared with the simple and rude buying and killing, It has a little more traditional sense of ritual.
In Hong Kong, bounty is released through a specific mediatery and this mediatery must be authoritative enough for everyone to trust. When a person wants to release a bounty, favonovel.com doesn’t just say a word.
After killing someone, no matter how much money they give, there will be a large group of killers swarming. In this field, there is a set of traditional and strict industry regulations.
Gerard released a bounty of US$30 million and favonovel.com had to pay US$33 million in advance to the middleman. Among them, 30 million is the reward of the bounty itself and the other 3 million is the fee of the middleman.
Only after the middleman receives the money will they turn to announce the bounty to the entire underground world, because they have very high prestige and influence in the underground world. So once they release the bounty, all killers will not have any doubts. Moreover, the intermediary is not just as simple as being a transaction intermediary. Sometimes the bounty is too large, which can easily lead to many people vying for it. In the end, it may even cause disputes because it is impossible to determine who is the real winner.
At this time, an mediatery also needs to come forward and the intermediary will make an objective judgment to determine the true ownership of the bounty.
Gerard immediately called the middleman, turned on the loudspeaker in front of Charlie and the others and said, “I want to take back the 30 million US dollars that I released earlier.”
The other party asked, “Mr. Lombardo, are you sure you want to take back this bounty? Your bounty is the highest amount of money in Hong Kong over the years. Many killers have been dispatched today. If you take it back at this time, If you release it in the future, I am afraid no one will not be so enthusiastic.”
Gerard said without hesitation, “I’m sure to take it back, immediately, immediately!”
The other party was silent for a moment and then said, “Mr. Lombardo, if you decide to take it back, the three million handling fee will not be refunded. Do you have any objection to this?”
Gerard blurted out, “No objection!”
“Okay, I’ll release a message now, informing everyone that the bounty is withdrawn and the $30 million will be refunded in the same way within 24 hours.”
