32,Robert was arrested
On the boardwalk, Downey was walking to the Reitz Hotel when a car stopped in front of him.
Vince McGrady sat in the car and said to Downey with a smile.
"Get in the car, the brigadier general wants to see you!"
Donnie simply thought about it and got into Vince's car.
"What do you want from me, Brigadier?"
"When you meet the Brigadier General, you will naturally know it!"
Vince drove and didn't say anything to Downey.
Downey did not continue to ask, and soon the two of them arrived at the Brigadier's villa.
"Donnie, we meet again!"
The brigadier general got up on the sofa and spoke to Downey slowly and softly as always.
Downey smiled and said: "Mr. Brigadier, if you call me here at this time, there must be something going on, right?"
The brigadier general laughed and said: "I told you, being friends with me will always bring you a steady stream of benefits. In calling you here this time, I actually want to give you benefits!"
Have you ever said this?
Downey smiled and said, "If this is the case, I will definitely thank Mr. Brigadier sincerely."
After some greetings, the two parties took their seats. The brigadier general smiled and said, "You should know about LeBron's injury, right?"
Downey nodded, this matter has been spread in Atlantic City, Downey naturally knows about it.
"LeBron was injured and the distillery was bombed. This will inevitably have an impact on Nucky's liquor stock. As far as I know, you are the only one in Atlantic City who can provide everyone with whiskey now, Donny!"

The brigadier general said with a bright smile.
Looking at the Brigadier General's smile, Downey had to suspect that the incident of LeBron James being shot by the Ku Klux Klan had something to do with the Brigadier General.
It's just that LeBron was also present at the Commodore's dinner. Looking at LeBron's situation at that time, it was obvious that he wanted to have two sides. Could it be that during this period, LeBron and Nucky reached some kind of consensus?
Then he kicked the brigadier away?
Donnie quickly rejected this idea. Although the Ku Klux Klan people were crazy, they were not stupid. Nucky could tolerate attacking LeBron, but if they moved closer to the Brigadier, Nucky would definitely not allow them to do so.
Of!
Although he had thoughts in his mind, Downey did not ask, but smiled and said: "Mr. Commodore may not know yet, but I have reached an agreement with Nucky before that my wine will be supplied to LeBron!"
"Of course I know about this!" The Brigadier was in a good mood and said proudly: "And I also know that Downey has always wanted to bypass LeBron and let his whiskey go directly to Atlantic City."
Downey didn't speak this time, but quietly waited for the Brigadier's follow-up.
"Nucky must be very short of wine now. If you can choose to stand with us at this time and refuse to provide Nucky with all drinks, then I can guarantee you that from now on, you will be the only one drinking in Atlantic City.
Available!"
The Brigadier finally told Downey his thoughts.
After listening to this, Downey frowned slightly. He didn't expect that the Commodore would be so anxious. Originally, Downey's idea was to have both sides when the Commodore and Nucky were fighting for control of Atlantic City. But now the Commodore actually directly attacked Nucky.
Basic action.
The Brigadier is indeed old!
Downey was not proud of the Brigadier General's suggestion. Instead, he couldn't help but lament that the Brigadier General was old.
If Nucky was so easily defeated, then he would not have been able to quickly become the underground emperor of Atlantic City after the Commodore was imprisoned, and control Atlantic City far beyond the period of the Commodore.
"Mr. Brigadier General, there is something I think you need to know!" Downey did not directly oppose the Brigadier General, but said to the Brigadier General: "Although LeBron's winery was bombed, Nucky is not the only channel.
, now there is smuggled wine shipped from the sea every week to serve Nucky. This smuggled wine is enough for Nucky to wait until LeBron rebuilds his own brewery. What will you do then?"
"Haha!" Vince, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly laughed and said, "Donny, you have just established yourself in Atlantic City. There are still many things you don't know. There is one thing you don't know yet.
, just today, the Coast Guard detained a shipment of smuggled alcohol from the UK for Nucky."
The Brigadier also smiled proudly and said: "That's right, that means no one can provide Nucky with drinks except you now!"
.
"What?"
Nucky showed a rude expression for the first time, staring at Louis with burning eyes.
Louis replied calmly: "That's true. The drinks we transported from the UK were detained by the Coast Guard when we were approaching Atlantic City!"
Nucky sat back in his chair, breathing heavily.
When Prohibition had no room for survival in Atlantic City, and Atlantic City residents became accustomed to the constant flow of wine every day, whiskey had actually become another common currency in Atlantic City.
It can be said that all this is due to Nucky.
But now Nucky is facing one after another losing control of the Atlantic City alcohol market. Once such a situation occurs, it will inevitably trigger a crisis of trust among the people of Atlantic City.
Once a crisis of confidence occurs, it will directly affect Nucky's prestige in Atlantic City.
Such a result is something Nucky absolutely does not want to see.
"Call Donnie immediately, I want to see him!"
At this time, Nucky thought of Downey. As the Commodore said, now the only person in Atlantic City who can provide everyone with drinks is Downey!
Louis made no move and just replied: "I have called the Bullock Tavern, but Downey is not at the pub, and people there said that he has already come to see us!"
Now that the other party has come to find him, he still hasn't seen Downey.
Nucky quickly thought of a possibility.
"You mean Donnie is with the Brigadier now?"

Louis nodded and said: "Yes, I have asked someone to question the person we are eyeing the brigadier general. I believe there will be an answer soon!"
After the words fell, Joe knocked on the door and walked in, "The boss has investigated clearly. Downey was taken to the Brigadier's villa by Vince McGrady this morning!"
This time Nucky suddenly felt that Downey had become an indispensable figure in Atlantic City.
Before this, Nucky only thought that Downey was a very smart person who could be conquered. But now in just a few months, Downey has unknowingly grown into a person that both he and the Brigadier need to fight for.
A character?
Nucky doesn't like this kind of thing very much. He can tolerate Donnie growing up, but he can't tolerate Donnie growing up outside his control.
"Boss, should we do something?"
Louis asked Nucky.
"Of course I have to do something!" Nucky tapped his desk gently again. It was obvious that the other party was thinking seriously.
A few minutes later, Nucky suddenly said to Joe: "You take people to Elwood Village immediately...I will let people contact you about how to do it then!"
Qiao did not hesitate and nodded: "Understood!"
As Joe left, Nucky picked up the phone, and after dialing a number in Chicago, his tone became lively.
.
Downey returned to the Bullock Tavern. In the Brigadier's villa, Downey did not agree to the Brigadier's request, nor did he refuse the Brigadier's request. He just said that he needed time to think about the matter carefully.
The brigadier general did not have any objection to this and agreed to Downey's request with a smile.
"Where's Robert?" After Donnie returned to the tavern and didn't see Robert, he asked John. When he left the tavern, he was still here!
John said nonchalantly: "Yesterday, Lisa told him that a girl from a southern town was here. Robert couldn't wait to go there!"
"Why didn't you look for him yesterday? You went there in the morning. He was in a good mood!" After Donnie complained, he said to Chris, who was washing the barware at the bar: "Go and call Robert."
"Okay!" Chris, who had just arrived in Atlantic City, said happily immediately.
Chris and Magage have both arrived in Atlantic City. They are the same size as John, and they are both tall and thick-set people who look like they have no brains.
Seeing Chris's excitement, Downey immediately warned: "Don't come back after finishing the work. Tell Robert that I have something urgent!"
There are only a few people around Downey now, and the only one who can discuss things with Downey is actually Robert. As for the Brigadier's request for cooperation, Downey still wants to discuss it with Robert and see what Robert thinks.
The way Chris nodded seriously made Donnie feel unsure.
After a while, Chris came back alone and did not see Robert.
Donnie, John, and Magage all showed puzzled expressions and asked Chris: "Where is Robert?"
Chris said with a strange expression: "Lisa next door said that just before Robert took off his pants, the security police came in and took Robert away for disturbing social order!"
"What?"
John stood up immediately. He went to the boarding house to find a girl and was taken away. This was an extremely ridiculous thing to everyone in Atlantic City.
Downey did not stand up, but showed a solemn expression. In just this moment, Downey had already figured out that the Brigadier must be the one who did this. He was showing off his muscles to himself.
"Either cooperate, or Robert will be taken away today, and you will be taken away tomorrow!"
This is the Brigadier threatening Donnie!
Downey looked solemn, looking at John and others who were about to take guns to save Robert, and reprimanded: "Why panic, I will handle this matter!"
John still didn't know what happened, so he angrily said to Donnie: "What does security mean? Why did they take Robert away?"
Donnie waved his hand and didn't explain anything to John. Now that there was no one around him to discuss with, Donnie could only make his own decision.
