Act 11 Tom and Doug
In Freeman's eyes, Doug left the dyeing factory.
It's autumn in New Haven, and when the breeze blows, the golden leaves on both sides of the street swaying and falling.
"Hey, come here!" Doug beckoned, calling for a carriage.
"Hello sir, where are you going?" asked the middle-aged man in the car earnestly.
"Go to Yale. Douglas got on the car with the armrest.
"All right!" the coachman waved the reins, the horse exerted force, and the wooden wheel began to "creak" and turn.
Inherited from the British architectural style, Yale University is not just a few academic buildings and dormitories, but an open town.
In addition to teachers and students, there are also many ordinary residents living here.
These ordinary residents are, of course, beggars everywhere in the United States.
The body had been begging in Yale Town for several years before Doug possessed it.
Recently, because of his sudden outburst, teachers and students are worried when they see beggars, for fear of accidentally provoking a sweeping monk-like figure. Like that hapless lecturer, life has fallen into a stain and become a laughing stock.
"Where exactly are you going?" the coachman stopped at the entrance and asked Doug behind him.
"That's it. Doug got out of the car, pulled a paper ticket out of his pocket and threw it at the driver, and walked towards the campus.
In New Haven, Doug was silent, and when he arrived at Yale, it was as if he was at home.
As the most popular guy in New Haven lately, he seems to be being watched everywhere he goes.
"Hello Mr. Doug!"
"Hello!"
"Mr. Doug, is the weather really good today?"
"yes!"
……
Doug responded to the greeting as he walked towards the middle of nowhere.
He came to Yale today for two main purposes, the first purpose was to get another reliable self-defense weapon, and the second purpose was to promote "Monopoly" among students.
Doug's previous headshot Smith's weapon was made with the help of the person he was looking for now.
The man's name was Tom, and he was about the same size as Doug, and he was still a child.
However, no one can treat him as a harmless child for what he has done.
Even if he was arranged by his relatives to live in Yale, he could only be placed in a remote corner with few friends.
"Knock knock. ”
Doug knocked on the window of the cabin.
Sleepy-eyed, Tom pushed open the window and asked, "Doug, why did you come so early today?"
"I need you to help me craft another handy weapon. ”
"No problem!" said Tom at once, stooping down to pick up a corked glass bottle, "Doug, look what this is, it's so much fun to talk to you, you can always bring me new ideas." Would you like to come in and study it with me?"
"No! no!" Doug immediately refused.
Do you know why Tom is scary?
Do you know why the scary Tom was still placed at Yale?
Because he was a chemist, an expert in explosives to be exact.
Chemists in these years, as long as they have fruitful energy, whether in Europe or in the Americas, will be rich.
For example, Nobel, the founder of the famous Nobel Prize, blew up his younger brother and opened explosives factories all over the world.
As it happens, Tom had the same experience. It's just that his experience is even more tragic than that of Nobel. His family, in addition to him, his father, mother, elder brother, younger brother, four living beings, were all sent to heaven by him at one time.
And the place where he did the experiment at that time was at the house of a distant relative.
Frightened distant relatives sent Tom's father, mother, brother, and brother to Yale as soon as they buried him.
Doug though is friends with Tom.
But to this day, every time the two talk and contact, one is inside the house and the other is outside the window.
Even a closer look reveals that there is a hiding pit at Doug's feet. Once Doug notices that something is wrong, he can immediately sink into the ground in a second.
Every time Tom started talking, he would invite Doug into the house. But what a British joke, Doug would have to think about it before he entered the house of death, full of danger and explosions.
Doug looked at the bottle of powder that he didn't know what it was, and changed the subject, "Tom, if nothing else, I think our chemical company will be established within six months." ”
"Really?" said Tom, his eyes full of longing when he heard Doug's words, like a cute little boy seeing a mighty Transformer in the window.
He took a deep breath, his body trembling slightly, and said slowly but clearly, "We...... Can it really blow up the world? Can it really be?"
"Yes, we're going to blow the world to shreds!" said Doug.
"Okay, Doug, I'm going to do it too, I'm going to do it too! remember to come and get the gun at night!" Tom said, and slammed the window shut.
Doug looked at the closed window and breathed a sigh of relief.
Wealth and danger are sought.
The chemical industry is inconceivably profitable.
In terms of explosives alone.
Today, the vast majority of countries in the world, including the United States, which country does not need explosives?
The construction of the railway encountered a difficult mountain bag, and the canal ran into a boulder that was difficult to conquer.
The obstacles that have not necessarily achieved results with a lot of manpower and material resources have been put into the face of explosives!
It's just that all this requires start-up capital.
The property that the Tom family had accumulated before the blow up was "properly kept" by distant relatives.
Tom lacked start-up capital.
Doug needs excess profits.
The two guys hit it off.
And Doug's way of obtaining the primitive accumulation of capital is "Monopoly".
Walking back from the back of the road to the main road, Doug looked at his pocket watch, the time was just right.
Studying at Yale University is not easy, but for the vast majority of students, they come to Yale not only to study, but also to build their own social circle during their time at university.
As a result, party salons are not uncommon at Yale.
Although Doug is not a student at Yale University, his previous series of operations have made him gain the recognition of many students.
Salon's invitation, he also received more than a dozen.
And now from now, he's going to start brushing the party salon!
Walking into the café, the walls are lit with expensive smokeless candles.
Under the warm yellow candlelight, young people gathered in twos and threes, either talking loudly or whispering.
These students from wealthy families are the suns of tomorrow in the United States.
Doug looked at these rising stars and said in a loud voice, "Students, do you want to play a game together?"
