58.Don’t let others see
"You can't do this!"
When Isiah left and only John and Robert were left, Robert said to John calmly.
"Why can't you go? AJ obviously doesn't take us seriously. If we don't deal with him, Downey's idea of controlling the West District will be in vain!"
The entire Atlantic City is divided into four zones: southeast, northwest and northwest. It is so simple and crude. Now Downey can still control LeBron James, so for Downey, he has already controlled the North Zone.
Why Downey wants to find Isiah is because Downey wants to use this as a springboard to control the West District. In Downey's heart, the West District is better controlled than the North District.
After all, those niggas in the North District have long hair and bones, and they never know when they will rebel.
The West Side is the poorest area after the North Side. If Downey can win over the hearts of the people in the West Side with his job as Junket Operator, Downey's status in Atlantic City will reach a higher level.
"What Downey said was to use Isiah as a springboard to control the West End, but he did not say that he must use Isiah as a person."
Robert has a deeper understanding of Downey's plan.
"Moreover, didn't you realize just now that Isiah actually wants to use us as gunmen? If we deal with AJ when we don't have a foundation in the West District, what do you think those people in the West District will think of us?
Although that place is poor, the people are very united and very xenophobic. This can be seen from the fact that very few women from the West District join the WCTU.
I can guarantee you that if we take action at this time, people in the entire West District will regard us as enemies. At that time, Isaiah can rely on this matter to gather a group of people. If this person has the power in his hands,
If it's strong enough, and we haven't taken down the Fuli Tavern yet.
Do you think Isiah will still be on our side?"
After listening to Robert's explanation, John touched his head and rubbed his curly hair, "What should we do?
Now the entire West District knows that Isiah is ours. If we don't take action, the people in the West District will also look down on us, and it will be very troublesome."
Robert shook his head and said: "I don't know about that. I think we should tell Downey about this and let him make the decision!"
"After all, we still have to go find Donnie, so what are you talking nonsense to me here!"
John rolled his eyes at Robert, and Robert shook his head helplessly.
.
"Godfather, what should we do now?"
In the Brigadier's villa, Vince looked a little lonely.
He originally thought that he was the police judge of Atlantic City and a well-known figure in Atlantic City, but he did not expect that the identity he was once proud of was not worth mentioning in front of Nucky, and the other party easily took it away.
Sent to jail himself.
If the brigadier general hadn't come forward, I might not have come out now!
"Washington has already called. Although they didn't explain our matter clearly, they looked like they had tried their best. It seems that it is impossible to rely on the relationship in Washington!"
The brigadier general sat there, with a calm expression on his face, and asked Vince: "How is the investigation going at Diesel?"
Now the entire Atlantic City, probably the Commodore, is aware of the arrival of Diesel Mallard and others.
Vince said with a somewhat impatient expression: "These people are still squatting at the Reitz Hotel to collect Nucky's materials. It will be impossible to use their power in the short term!"
The American federal investigator, or FBI for short, is quite famous in later generations.
But in fact, at this period, the FBI's power was not that great. It would not be until Hoover came to power that the FBI's power would increase infinitely!
"It will always be of some use. Find an opportunity to publicize their arrival in Atlantic City!"
The brigadier general said to Vince.
Vince was stunned and asked: "If they are exposed, wouldn't Nucky have to be prepared?"
In Vince's view, only if these people are not exposed can it be possible to find criminal evidence about Nucky in Atlantic City.
"Naive!" the brigadier general said with some dissatisfaction: "Do you think Nucky won't know if we don't tell you? It's just a matter of time!"
"But longer time is always better!"
The brigadier general said: "I never expect these people to really find any evidence of guilt about Nucky. Their appearance is more to distract Nucky's attention.
Only in this way, Nucky will not put all his energy on us, do you understand?"
Vince thought for a while before finally understanding what the brigadier general meant.
Seeing that Vince understood, the Brigadier nodded helplessly, but a sense of powerlessness arose in his heart.
When he first returned to Atlantic City, he was so ambitious and thought that it would be very easy to regain control of the land he once managed.
But when he actually returned to Atlantic City, he realized that he had imagined everything too simply.
Nucky's control over Atlantic City is simply unbreakable, and his old relationships no longer have the momentum they had when they were young.
Now all of them have become old fritters who take stock of the situation and vacillate.
When he had some advantages before, these people were willing to stand on his side, but when Nucky really showed his fangs, these people all became cowards!
"Vince, we need an infusion of new blood!"
The brigadier general said to Vince seriously.
Vince looked at the brigadier in confusion.
"Tonight you invite David Jabbar to your home in my name. By the way, this matter must be kept secret!"
The brigadier general started giving orders directly, regardless of whether Vince understood what he meant!
"By rescuing you, Nucky must have been dissatisfied with David Jabbar. As long as we can properly show some friendship at this time, I believe David Jabbar will definitely be on our side."
of.
The most important thing is that David Jabbar and Eli Johnson are two in one. If we can win David Jabbar, we can win Eli Johnson.
Without Eli Johnson's help, it's like taking off one of Nucky's arms."
"Yes, that's it!" Vince just thought about it briefly and nodded excitedly: "When I was in the security department, I heard news about Eli Johnson many times. He has always been very good.
I’m dissatisfied with Nucky’s attitude towards me, maybe we can really win him over!”
"Now that you understand, let's do it!"
.
"What's going on?"
Tonight, after David Jabbar came to the Fuli Tavern, he had a shocked expression on his face.
The business of the tavern on the first and second floors is still the same, with singing and dancing, and everyone is very happy.
But on the third floor, the situation is different. On weekdays, even if it is not a holiday, there will be customers sitting at every gaming table here.
But now...
There are ten gaming tables, but only four or five gaming tables have customers, not many.
"Where are the people?"
David Jabbar looked gloomily at his manager Nate Thurmond, a middle-aged man wearing a black suit.
Nate showed an embarrassed expression and said: "Boss, a new place has recently opened in Atlantic City, and many customers have gone there!"
"Fart!" David Jabbar yelled angrily: "There are new venues opening in Atlantic City every day, but the loyalty of our guests and their style have always made us their first choice. How could it be possible now?
Everyone is going to a new place!"
Nate bit the bullet and explained helplessly: "It's strange to say that the newly opened venue seems to be targeting our customers. I have also asked some familiar customers before..."
p>
When David Jabbar listened to Nate's explanation, he immediately understood that someone was poaching his customers!
"Who is so bold? Doesn't he know the consequences of doing so?"
David Jabbar could not have imagined that anyone in Atlantic City would be so bold as to poach him.
Nate replied: "It has been clearly investigated that the boss behind the newly opened restaurant is none other than Donny Brock of Brock's Tavern!"
"What?" David Jabbar's anger doubled when he heard that the boss behind the new venue was Downey: "It's Downey Bullock again. Does this guy really think that I can't do anything to him?"
You really have nothing to do with Donny Bullock now... Nate reminded: "Boss, we must find a way now. If we can't stop it in time, we will definitely lose more customers!
”
Although what he said just now was harsh enough, David Jabbar also understood that there was really nothing he could do against Downey at this time.
He had previously learned from Eli Johnson that Nucky did not want to fall out with Downey, which meant that it was unrealistic for him to use Eli Johnson's power to directly suppress Downey Bullock.
p>
And now he still needs to buy wine from Downey, which means that Downey has mastered his upstream channel.
"You just said that the person helping Downey is Isiah from the West End?"
Nate nodded and said: "Yes, Isiah just ran a tavern in the West End with two gambling tables. Somehow he got in touch with Downey!"
"You immediately go to AJ from the Leopard Gang in the West District. This man owes me a favor. Tell him that if I can get rid of Isiah or drag Isiah to our camp, I will thank him very much!"
Since Donny Bullock has no way to deal with him now, he can only deal with his team!
Nate nodded: "Understood!"
At this moment, David Jabbar's bodyguard came over and whispered a few words into David Jabbar's ear. After listening to this, David Jabbar looked complicated!
"Invite him to my office and don't let outsiders see him!"
Chapter completed!
