Ba'al saves the gaudy gold and opulence for his home, well, mansion. He half sits on the edge of his desk before answering. "An opportunity. He and his little network are yours to do with as wish. I'd like you to retain and strengthen his political ties, of course."

He knows this is a suspiciously generous offer. That particular mob boss is very well connected. It's not completely unheard of for Ba'al to be generous but he's still leaving out exactly what he wants. Some of what he wants should be obvious, he wants their offspring in the heads of already installed politicians.
