Subtitle of this chapter: If it can be big or small, then Master Yuan must choose big.

"Mr. Neo-Yuan, we are the Fort Myer Police Department, and you have been arrested!"

“TF？！”

"What are you guys doing?!"

"Yes, yes, why did you arrest Neo?!"

Before our Master Yuan could speak, the people around him exploded.

Mr. John McCall immediately asked, "Gentlemen, what is going on?" I am Mr. Yuan's lawyer, what crime has my client committed? ”

"Isn't that obvious, gentlemen?" I only heard the leading sheriff say coldly, "Mr. Yuan first violated the prohibition ......"

As soon as they heard the words Prohibition, everyone present was immediately dumbfounded.

As we all know, the 18th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution Prohibition Act (also known as the "Volstedt Act") came into effect in January 1920. Under this law, it is illegal to manufacture, sell or even transport beverages with an alcohol content of more than 0.5%.

Prohibition is so strict that it is not illegal to drink alcohol at home, but it is illegal to drink with friends or hold a drinking party, which can be punishable by a fine of up to $1,000 and imprisonment for six months.

And Yuan Yanqian and they drank openly in front of tens of thousands of people, and they drank strong liquor with an alcohol content of more than 40%, if this is not a violation of the prohibition order, then what kind of behavior is a violation of the order?

Our Master Yuan is also a hundred secrets, and he has never thought about this problem at all. The reason is that he has been in the upper echelons of New York, and will the NYPD and Prohibition Commissioners go to trouble gentlemen like Louis Baker and John McCall?

And the fairy water produced by his Baisui Mountain Company has a legal loophole, which can be regarded as a drug. In addition, Chinatown is a place outside the law at all, as long as you stuff enough money for the strips, no one cares.

Therefore, when he formulated the "Yuan's Rules", where would he have thought of such a drama.

I only heard the sheriff continue: "Mr. Yuan is also suspected of intentional injury. He has to go back with us for an investigation. ”

FDR on the side groaned for a while, and whispered to Yuan Yanqian: "Mr. Yuan, I think you have to go with them." But don't worry, I don't think it's a big problem. It's just that some people in the Republican Party want to give an account to their pro-Prohibition voters. ”

Franklin D. Roosevelt, who deserved to be the top political elite in the United States, saw through the truth of this matter at a glance.

In fact, these police officers were found by Mr. Charles Evans Hughes. Compared with the frivolous President Harding and the "Ohio Gang", this famous American lawyer has a much more serious attitude towards politics.

His father was a Southern Baptist pastor. The Baptists, also known as Baptists, were a major denomination that separated from the English Puritan independents in the seventeenth century, and got their name for their baptism, which consisted of full-body immersion in water.

In 1845, the Baptist Church in the United States split into the Southern Baptist Convention and the Northern Baptist Convention. Among them, the Southern Baptist Convention (SBC) remains the largest Protestant denomination in the United States until the 21st century.

The denomination is quite conservative, and in 2004 the Southern Baptist Convention officially broke away from the Baptist World Alliance because of its dissatisfaction with the Baptist World Alliance's tolerance of homosexuality and the creation of female pastors. But what Inbutus heard was that Bill Clinton, who was not conservative at all, was a registered member of the Southern Baptist Convention.

One of Mr. Hughes's great achievements as governor of New York was the banning of horse racing gambling.

Even horse racing cannot be tolerated, let alone a duel.

Mr. Secretary of State had originally asked the Fort Myer police to stop the duel by legal means, but when he heard about the duel rules invented by Master Yuan, he changed his mind and asked the police to arrest the two duelists for violating alcohol prohibition after the duel.

For him, this matter is related to the seriousness of the law in the United States, and even if it is a formality, it must show the attitude of the law enforcement authorities.

But now that Lieutenant Colonel Alexander got into the ambulance, he had to arrest Yuan Yanqian.

FDR is right, if the Republicans let go of Master Yuan, who blatantly violated Prohibition, so easily, it would really offend their mainstream voters.

It's not a big problem...... Hearing this statement, Yuan Yanqian was not very open, since the problem is not big, then Lao Tzu will make it big.

He suddenly raised his hand and raised his voice, "Everyone, be quiet!" Don't worry, even if I do break Prohibition, it's not a big deal. ”

If it's a big deal, it's just a fine and jail, and the money won't be very large, and it won't be long in jail. Now that the United States is deporting him, he is confident that he will get a Ph.D. from New York University. So there's really nothing to worry about.

"Mr. Officer, I'll go with you. But......" said our Master Yuan, pointing to the emotional audience around him, as well as the reporters who were about to move, "you must let me say a few words to everyone." Otherwise, the audience and reporters here would think I had committed some serious crime. ”

The officers also looked around them, and if it weren't for the cavalry who kept order, the reporters would have rushed into the stadium, and maybe the spectators would have gathered around to see the excitement. Then the matter will be a big deal.

After discussing a few words with the people around him, the police officer at the head nodded and said, "Okay, Mr. Yuan." You can start by saying a few words to everyone before we go with us. ”

Yuan Yanqian was waiting for this sentence. He nodded his gratitude to the officers and gentlemen, then put on his coat and walked towards the speaker......

"Listeners, just now the Fort Myer police entered the dueling arena, and they had a little argument with Mr. Yuan's side. But what the content of the dispute is, we don't know yet. Wait......"

"Mr. Yuan is about to speak, please pay attention, Mr. Yuan is going to speak!"

"Ladies and gentlemen. Let us pray together to the gods of our faith that Lieutenant Colonel Harold Alexander will have no other health problems other than a headache when he wakes up tomorrow. May Amitabha Buddha and the Three Clears ...... Well, there's also the god of the flying sky to bless him. ”

The United States is such a quasi-religious country, you say that you are Taoists, Buddhists, Shintoists, White Lotus, Zoroastrians, Flying Pasta Sects...... It's better than saying that you're atheistic.

When Master Yuan said this, it naturally reflected his gentlemanly demeanor and chivalry.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I would like to state that I do not know why you are here. I can only guess that it's a nice day and it's Sunday, so you're all here for Fort Myer. ”

"May I ask if that's the way you are?"

President Harding, who was on the viewing platform, asked his attorney general, "Harry, what does this Chinese mean by this?" ”
