又大又粗弄得我出好多水

Chapter 520 - "Lacking Influence"

Will you acquire those businesses? Or will you let them be?

So far, Ainsley’s people were in charge of handling the conquered territories, and they knew that the baby would disagree for the family to take over such businesses.

That’s why, all this time, they never touched the ’forbidden’ businesses and let them be.

However, sooner or later, other forces would take over the businesses from the Sloan Family’s hand, either by force or negotiation.

Since Ainsley didn’t station her people in those areas, it’s easy for others to take over and profit from the business.

Right now, Zev was asking Ainsley...whether she would take those areas as ’valuables’ or not.

If yes, she could finish the mission right away. If not, she would have to wage war with other families and steal at least a few of their ’clean’ territories.

[How is it?] Zev looked at Ainsley and purposely floated in front of her.

[What will you do about those territories? Let them be or acquire them?]

When Zev asked like that, Ainsley didn’t know why but she suddenly turned her head and glared at the toddler spirit.

A flame of rage burned in her blue pupils.

Do I want to earn from those businesses?

Of course not!

Ainsley shook her head and showed her fangs.

[Do you think I’m like those people?! How could I acquire– ]

[That’s it! Just so you know, I’m sensible and caring to you, host.] Zev cut Ainsley’s speech and smiled smugly.

[That’s why I only include two other territories into the valuable category...because I know your heart and thoughts. But if you don’t want to...]

[Forget it. Don’t ever include those territories in my family’s official territories.] Ainsley waved her hand and slowly plopped to the bed.

Her chest went up and down as she tried to calm herself. Yet despite that, she still felt the air was suffocating.

[I...don’t want those territories to be considered valuable.] The baby repeated her thoughts in a weak voice.

By now, she already looked so weary that even the Godfather couldn’t help but look at Ainsley with a worried look.

[Lil lass...]

[I’m fine, Godfather. I...I am just shocked...that I only knew now.]

’There’s no way I’ll use those territories to earn money...no way. But...but...just why...I only know now? I never knew the stolen territories...are like that...’

Ainsley suddenly realised that all this time, her people blocked her from knowing about this stuff.

She never knew that the stolen territories would have such dirty businesses....

It’s all because her people didn’t want her to know the ugly truth. They only told her about the positive businesses...

[Is it because I’m still a kid in their eyes?] Ainsley took a deep breath and sighed.

She knew that being a mafia means doing illegal and immoral things. From the start, the family also did drug businesses...and that’s normal for a mafia.

However, being someone upright and innocent, Ainsley couldn’t let her family continue doing such dirty deals.

’Can’t we just be a mafia family without committing those disgusting things?’

As if knowing Ainsley’s thoughts, the Godfather paused before nodding.

[If it’s you, lil lass, you definitely can do much more humane business even as a mafia.]

Ainsley’s heart shook. The baby looked up at the Godfather and smiled bitterly.

[Yeah, I hope so...]

And maybe my people also have the same hope...and that’s why they never told me about these things.

It was then Ainsley got reminded once more that many people worked behind her to weave a sturdy family for her to rule over.

Her current achievement...and the family’s well-being...a lot of people actually worked hard for it.

’Ha...I am blessed with good subordinates that understand me, huh...?’

Ainsley smiled to herself as she closed her eyes.

Little did she know that the one persuading the others to understand Ainsley’s intention was none other than Elliana.

At first, many members wanted to take over the dirty businesses solely so that the family could have more cash cows and build a stable foundation among those businesses.

However, Elliana opposed those people strongly and in the end, managed to convince them after Ainsley successfully held the auction business.

If not for that, if Ainsley never auctioned the potion and just kept them for the family...

Maybe the other higher-ups would be forced to manage the dirty businesses as a way to gain connections, build a firm foundation for the family, and so on.

Nevertheless, Ainsley’s potion auction managed to solve all the troubles.

They could get business connections with other forces outside of the mafia society.

They could also show their family’s might to other Mafia families, herebly building their foundation among the big families...

It’s all because of Ainsley’s decision to auction the potions.

Thinking back, Ainsley never thought that far and only wanted to use the auction as a way to establish her family’s foundation, showing their might and value to the society.

With this power in hand, many people would think twice to offend them...because the Sloan family had a mysterious elf backing them and could sell the potions that even the alchemist guild sought after.

Everything fell to the right place without anyone realising. And the key was in Ainsley’s movement.

The baby had just realised the impact of her decision, and when she connected the dots, she didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

’Ah...if it’s like this, I’ll still have to hold an auction once a month to keep my family’s influence in society.’

After all, a big mafia family must have a strong influence in the society one way or another.

And Ainsley’s family lacked that influence.
