As the saying goes, a horse needs extra feed at night to grow strong, and a person needs a windfall to get rich.
There is a group of people who operate on the fringes of the law, even crossing its red lines without hesitation.
As long as they can make money, they will do anything: extort, swindle, abduct, cheat, steal, solicit, gamble, or rob.
These people are known as operators in the underworld.
They are different from ordinary street thugs. They are organized and disciplined, with a strict hierarchy and clearly defined roles.
Anyone who tries to keep the profits for themselves and breaks the rules will be punished severely. At best, they will lose a hand or a foot; at worst, they will end up dead in the street.
