No one doubted HD Security\'s combat capabilities.

The night before heading to Las Vegas, Hardy had called Michael to discuss the recent events in Los Angeles and inquire about the Corleone family\'s current situation.

The Corleone family was in a fierce battle with the other Four Families, essentially attacking each other\'s assets and killing each other\'s people.

Hardy informed Michael of his plan to go to Las Vegas.

The old godfather had explained the basic situation in Las Vegas to Hardy, highlighting its complexities, and mentioned that he had connections with the current mayor, who could be introduced to Hardy.

One had to admire the old godfather network.

Without such connections, the Corleone family wouldn\'t have been able to open a casino in the gambling city.

Hardy met with Mayor Goodman, and they had a pleasant conversation. Mayor Goodman welcomed Hardy\'s investment in Las Vegas and HD Security\'s establishment in the city.

Hardy introduced HD Security\'s operations and achievements, especially in maintaining Los Angeles\'s public order. Mayor Goodman had seen the reports, and LA Police Chief Ed had praised HD Security highly.

Mayor Goodman said, "A security company assisting in maintaining public order is a good idea. I\'ll propose it to the council. You know, funding approval requires council approval."

Hardy smiled, "Mayor Goodman, council discussions can take quite some time, from a few months to over a year. I have a proposal until the council approves, HD Security can temporarily provide free services to maintain Las Vegas\'s social order, familiarize ourselves with the environment, and demonstrate our capabilities. What do you think?"

"Free services ?"

"Yes, free."

Hardy aimed to become a supplementary force to the Las Vegas police, which required only the mayor\'s approval.

A free offer was hard to refuse.

"Alright, I\'ll call Chief Steve right away to have him sign an agreement with HD Security," Mayor Goodman said happily.

To thank Hardy for contributing to Las Vegas\'s order, Mayor Goodman also invited Hardy to lunch.

In the afternoon.

Lancer visited the Las Vegas Police Department to meet Chief Steve. They signed an agreement making HD Security a supplementary force for the police, responsible for patrolling and handling violent incidents.

The terms were similar to those of the agreement with the Los Angeles Police Department.

...

Las Vegas is currently a small town with a population of just over 20,000 residents and 30,000 to 40,000 tourists annually, comparable to the size of a small town in modern time.

Therefore, the Las Vegas Police Department is more akin to a small police station with only about 30 staff members, including the police chief.

HD Security is considered the most famous security company in the United States. Recently, it was heard that they assisted the Los Angeles police in taking down a large gang. During a chat after signing the agreement with Lancer, Chief Steve asked about this matter.

Lancer smiled slightly, "There was indeed a fierce battle. The other side had more than 200 people."

"And what were the casualties?" Chief Steve asked curiously.

"The other side lost more than 80 people, and over 200 were captured. As for us, we had 5 injured and no deaths," Lancer replied.

Chief Steve was quite impressed by these numbers, having heard that HD Security\'s team members were all veterans from the World War II battlefield, which explained their formidable combat power.

"How many people does HD Security have now?"

"We currently have over 1,500 members." Chief Steve was inwardly impressed.

"And how many are you planning to deploy in Las Vegas?"

"We plan to deploy around 150 people for now. If that\'s not enough, we can quickly reinforce," Lancer said.

Chief Steve thought to himself that their police department only had 30 people, while HD Security was bringing in 150 as supplementary forces and they are even ready to draw more reinforcement at any time as well.

Do they really think a small town with a population of over 20,000 will have such big issues?

From the next day onward, HD Security began patrolling the Las Vegas urban area, with white vehicles adorned with black stripes and a large "HD" logo in the middle.

The vehicle paint and logo of HD Security were designed by Hardy, reflecting his deep sense of dark humor. The black and white contrast symbolized Hardy\'s control over both the legitimate and the underworld business.

Las Vegas was already small, with only two main streets. HD Security simultaneously dispatched five patrol cars, so within ten minutes, people would see a patrol car passing by the entrance of their casino.

Initially, people were curious, but over time they became aesthetically fatigued and no longer paid attention to HD Security\'s patrol cars, continuing their gambling and leisure activities as usual.

While HD Security was being established, another inconspicuous sign was hung on a three story building not far from the main street.

"Beautiful Homeland Real Estate Company."

The company name was ordinary, but the owner was not. The registered company owner was Jon Hardy.

Hardy brought Andy because he initially had an idea to purchase a batch of land in Las Vegas. The first time he came to Las Vegas, after getting off the plane and seeing the vast stretches of land, he recalled his previous life in Las Vegas and knew that in the future, this barren land would be filled with skyscrapers.

The land here was still cheap at the moment. Once it developed, the land would become extremely valuable. Hardy drew a circle on the map of Las Vegas. This circled area would become the future new district of Las Vegas, the famous "Las Vegas Strip."

MGM Hotel, Caesars Palace Hotel, Venetian Hotel, Luxor Hotel with the Egyptian Sphinx, Paris Hotel with the Eiffel Tower, Bellagio Hotel, Mirage Hotel, Treasure Island Hotel, Wynn Hotel, Trump International Hotel, etc., would all be located in this area.

But now, it was still a wasteland with only one road passing through, and no one would imagine that in a few decades, this place would become the most bustling area of Las Vegas, with luxurious gambling palaces built on both sides of the road.
