When Luo Ke knew that this matter was the work of Xia Jiu and the others, Luo Ke still felt very complicated.
Rock has always hoped that the Chinese in Johannesburg can make decisions on their own. Now Buck and Anton are able to take charge of their own affairs. Of course Xia Jiu and the others are also making progress, but this direction seems to have gone astray. Rock doesn't know this.
Things are good or bad.
But one thing is for sure. Not everyone in a team can be upright. Someone has to do the dirty work. No matter what, Xia Jiu and the others have a good intention. This must be affirmed. p>
"If anything like this happens again in the future, go to Zach and tell him so that if anything happens, I can give you the answer." Rock still encouraged, after all, the current results are not bad.
Xia Jiu and the others were quite worried at first, but they didn't tell Luo Ke because they didn't want to cause trouble to Luo Ke. Even if something happened, Luo Ke would not be implicated.
Now receiving encouragement from Rock, Xia Jiu is very happy. They all have special identities. They used to be in the Cape Town Police Station. In situations like theirs, they should have retired from active service after being disabled and earned a meager salary.
Living a hard life.
Luo Ke's approach was obviously more humane. He did not abandon Xia Jiu and the others because of this, but instead entrusted Xia Jiu and the others with important responsibilities.
In the entire Johannesburg, Xia Jiu and his gang can be said to be the most loyal to Rock, and they are willing to work for Rock in the dark.
"Don't worry Sir, if this happens again in the future, we will definitely discuss it with Butler Zach." Xia Jiu did not resist Zach. Zach followed Roark all day long and could be regarded as the closest person to Roark.
.
After Harry Spencer had a bad relationship with Arnold, he immediately withdrew the inspectors at train stations and traffic thoroughfares, turned a blind eye to the Bruce Hughes case, and didn't even bother to cover it up.
Arnold was so angry that he was going crazy, but there was nothing he could do about it. Philip wanted to drive Arnold back to the mainland. Arnold didn't even dare to go to the mayor's mansion. Arnold's wife Lena was very sensible and returned to the mainland with her children.
, leaving Arnold alone in Johannesburg.
Therefore, Arnold directly expressed his dissatisfaction with the work of the police department in parliament and asked Harry Spencer to accept a question in parliament on the Bruce Hughes case.
While Rock is secretly investigating Bruce Hughes, of course he will not let go of monitoring Arnold.
In this regard, Arnold was much more excessive than Bruce Hughes. Bruce Hughes was also cautious. After Arnold became a member of the parliament, he simply intensified his efforts. Not only did he have an ambiguous relationship with his secretary, but he also had an ambiguous relationship with another countryman in the parliament.
Party MP Adam Stephen conspired to try to buy the Priestley gold mine.
The Priestley Gold Mine is a member of the Johannesburg Mining Alliance. The scale of this gold mine is not large, and the output is not high. Therefore, local nobles and local snakes like Stoudemire look down upon it. It is a slightly independent part of Johannesburg.
Gold mine.
Although the scale is small and the output is not high, the Priestley Gold Mine is very profitable.
In this situation in Johannesburg, gold mines with an ore grade of about five grams are on the verge of abandonment. The average grade of the Priestley gold mine is also above ten grams. It is an out-and-out rich ore, which is the mine owner Cody.
·Priestley didn’t want to attract attention, which is why the Priestley Gold Mine was unpopular.
"Arnold's appearance is a bit ugly. The annual profit of the Priestley Gold Mine is more than half a million pounds. He actually wants to buy the Priestley Gold Mine for only 100,000 pounds. I'm afraid he is thinking about money.
Crazy, Cody has already said that if Arnold doesn't stop, Cody will die. If you have the opportunity, remind Arnold, don't underestimate the determination of a millionaire." Stoudemire is the chairman of the Mining Alliance, Cody
After receiving the quotation, he immediately sought help from the Mining Alliance, so Xiao Si learned about it in time.
On the surface, the gold mines in Johannesburg are not very profitable. In fact, it is hard to say. Rock knew that he hid most of the gold in the basement, and Cody Priestley must have known it too.
Unlike Rock, Cody Priestley's industries are all in Europe, and it is said that he also has industries in the United States, so no one can tell how much money these Johannesburg mine owners make every year. Only they know. Or, only Rand Bank knows, because most mine owners are now more and more accustomed to storing gold in Rand Bank.
So don’t underestimate Ada’s influence in Johannesburg. If you calculate it carefully, Rock’s influence on Johannesburg may not be as much as Ada’s.
Rock's main influence is still on the farm, or among the Chinese. Ada's influence in Johannesburg has transcended racial groups. The Chinese have to deal with the Rand Bank, and the white people have to deal with the Rand Bank. Even the Japanese government
They all have to borrow money from the Rand Bank. In Johannesburg now, only Governor Ade has an influence comparable to that of Ada.
"Haha, this man is crazy. I don't even want to hear his name." Rock has no feelings for Arnold at all. If it weren't for Phyllis, Rock wouldn't tolerate it.
"What should we do? Let him do whatever he wants, and I am the chairman of the Mining Alliance." Stoudemire was also in a dilemma. If Stoudemire was merciless to Arnold, it would definitely affect the honor of the Rock and Matilda families. Don't look at the monk's face, look at the Buddha's face. If Stoudemire makes Arnold look disgraced, then people who don't know the truth will not care how much of a bastard Arnold is, and will only think that Rock, Philip, Henry, and Irving combined can't help Arnold.
Let’s all be embarrassed together.
That’s why Arnold felt confident.
"Don't ask me, I don't know. Philip can't send him back to his hometown even if he wants to. There's nothing I can do about it." Rock didn't know what to do. It was the first time in his two lives that he had encountered such a scoundrel.
Because Phyllis is inconvenient to operate, to be honest, Rock really hopes that the killers sent by Constantine will kill Arnold as well, so that Rock can avenge Arnold with thunderous power.
Once and for all!
Stoudemire doesn't talk nonsense. He can also understand Rock's dilemma. At this time, someone actually needs to take the initiative to stand up and let Arnold understand some truth.
Retribution came very quickly. Before Christmas, Adam Stephen was suddenly dismissed from his position as the general manager of the gold mine. His position in the mining union was also replaced by the new general manager of the gold mine. However, his status as a member of parliament was still there.
But after losing the position of general manager and the status of the mining union, it is hard to say how long he can be a member of parliament.
Rock knew that Adam Stephen's power came from a certain nobleman in the United Kingdom. Thinking of Harry Spencer's background, Rock had to lament the impermanence of the world.
"Sir, if you want to expose our contract with Adam Stephen, we will definitely kill this guy without a burial place." Xia Jiu couldn't understand her hatred. This was the rhythm of forcing Adam Stephen to death.<
/p>
"No, if you expose this kind of thing, who will dare to do business with Umbrella in the future?" Roque doesn't want to lose his character and can't dig his own grave.
"It's simple. Let Sam fire an employee at random, and then let that employee reveal the news himself. Then we will arrange for the person to fly away so that no one can find him." Xia Jiu said it in a nice way. According to this guy's character,
It is estimated that in the end, they will kill people and silence them, fly away and so on, just talk about it casually.
Luo Ke was dumbfounded. After Xia Jiu became a black man, he went further and further on the road of blackness, and he did things by any means.
However, if you think about it carefully, it seems to be somewhat feasible——
Rock shook his head and pushed this thought out of his mind. Some things are difficult to control once they start. When you get used to using illegal means to deal with problems, it will be extremely difficult to return to the normal way.
"No, Arnold is interested in Adam Stephen, and he will also do it for the power in Adam Stephen's hands. If we deal with Adam Stephen now, we are doing Arnold a favor. Keeping Adam Stephen will make Arnold even more uncomfortable." Rock
Don't worry, Adam Stephen is also a man who loves power, otherwise he wouldn't get close to Arnold. Now that the Congressman is Adam Stephen's only remaining power, let Arnold struggle.
Arnold is indeed very confused. As a member of the Mining Alliance, Adam Stephen has a very important position in Johannesburg. It can be said that the Mining Alliance is the top of the Johannesburg pyramid. It actually decides everything in Johannesburg, even the decisions made by the city government.
Any decision requires the cooperation of the mining alliance.
To put it bluntly, if the Mining Alliance is dissatisfied with the city government's decision, it can force the city government to death if it doesn't have money. The British system of "private property is sacred and inviolable" determines that the Mining Alliance's status is unshakable.
, Stoudemire is actually the uncrowned king of Johannesburg.
After losing his position in the Mining Union, Adam Stephen is no longer dispensable to Arnold. The seat of the parliamentary member is still very important. Arnold now hopes that Adam Stephen will take the initiative to leave the Socialist Party, so that Arnold can use the parliamentary seat to win over
Others.
Of course, Adam Stephen also knew that his status was declining sharply, so he took the Priestley Gold Mine as an opportunity for his re-emergence. On Christmas Day, Adam Stephen and Arnold went to the Priestley Gold Mine again.
, coercing Cody Priestley, hoping to buy the Priestley gold mine.
"You two, I'm afraid you are overthinking, don't force me, otherwise I would rather sell the gold mine to Lord Nyasaland or Mr. Cecil Rhodes Jr. than sell it to you.
." Cody Priestley refused. No matter whether Arnold and Adam Stephan came to play softly or hard, Cody Priestley was not afraid.
The Umbrella Company is also responsible for the security work at the Priestley Gold Mine. When Cody Priestley met Arnold and Adam Stephen, there were two burly men with sinister faces standing behind him. p>
If you really want to be tough, a millionaire is not that easy to mess with.
