Chapter 156: Handball

"The impact of the new prohibition is significant, but it's good news for us!", Durin sat on a chair in the corner of the playground and looked at the thin clouds in the sky, his eyes reflecting a bright look. Dover and the others sat beside him, and they were a little confused about Durin's statement, which was obviously a bad thing, why did it become a good thing?

Sometimes some things do seem funny, the New Party's proposal has just entered the process of the Reichstag, and the news, which should have been kept secret for the time being, has actually spread, and even the inmates in the regional prison outside Turnell have already been informed. The news came from a message from a prison guard, and there was no doubt that it must have been from the Ellisto. Durin is optimistic about this, and he thinks it's a good thing.

Capitalism is rapidly expanding its power, and some research books on capital are constantly appearing in this society, and some people have concluded that the price positioning of commodities does not depend on the quality of commodities, but on the needs of the market.

To explain it in a way that even those who haven't been to school can understand, it's that if people have a demand for dog poop, then both dogs and dog poop can sell for a high price. The former can produce shit, and the latter can be sold.

The second ban did have a great impact on the moonshine industry, and new departments were being built, and once the new departments were officially put to work, the now rampant moonshine industry was bound to be devastated. The introduction of any policy is not only as simple as having a document come out, but also requires the cooperation of a series of personnel such as the executive agency and the supervisory body. The impact of the previous prohibition was indeed great, but not many people enforced it, which naturally led to the proliferation of moonshine.

Now that the second prohibition is enacted, there is a specific agency to enforce and supervise it, which will inevitably deal a devastating blow to the moonshine market, at least now these blatant mass shipments of moonshine by steam locomotive do not exist. More than half of the moonshiners will disappear, and there will naturally be fewer and fewer moonshine circulating in the market. According to the researcher, a good depends on the demand in the market, and when the demand exceeds the supply, the price rises significantly.

Now a bottle of wine for eight dollars may sell for eighteen or even more in the near future!

This is definitely a good thing for all the moonshiners who have the ability and confidence to keep their business going, and it means that they will get more net profits at the same cost!

But at the same time, it's also a challenge for all moonshiners!

Stricter regulation and enforcement can no longer afford to transport bootlegged liquor on a large scale, and it is necessary to face the brutal attacks of other surviving moonshiners. In the past, several people may be able to peacefully coexist and share the resources of a city, but after the second prohibition of alcohol, there are absolutely not many people who will watch the income flow into the pockets of others several times more than ten times more than before.

War has become the only way for moonshiners to "elect", to elect the final victor and eliminate the loser in business and physically.

Durin suddenly turned around and asked, "By the way, how are the new arrivals going?"

On the fourth day of Durin's imprisonment, another group of prisoners came, and the sentences of these prisoners were not very long, the longest was one year, the shortest was three months. They were charged with armed robbery, and they had the victim injured and hospitalized, and they were stupid enough to gather for a night entertainment to loudly publicize the incident, and were eventually caught by the late police.

These messages were told to him by the warden, and at the same time reminded him that these people who came in after him did not necessarily really commit a crime, and that they were most likely arranged by the enemy outside of Doolin to deal with Doolin's killers. Durin felt the same way about this, so he asked Dover to keep an eye on the group.

"They're honest. Du Buddha tilted his head to look at the two people sitting loosely in the other corner, "One of those two people may be their leader, and the other few people have not clashed with anyone else." At one point they were provoked, but they quickly shrank back, so now everyone here thinks they are 'harmless'. ”

Durin also looked towards the staircase on the opposite side of the playground, I don't know if it was a coincidence, the guy sitting below the two people on the opposite side also looked at Durin, and nodded to Durin with a smile.

"It should be right, whether it is or not, we must be careful, this is not outside!", Durin patted his leg and stood up, and the members of the fellow townspeople around him also stood up, "Be careful, it will definitely not be wrong." In addition to them, it is easy to pay attention to other people, it is easy to establish initial prestige, but how to maintain it is not a simple matter. ”

The conflict in the restaurant quickly subsided, the brutal image of Doolin and his gang had become deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and with them being a group and Doolin's reputation gradually spreading in it, not many people were willing to take the initiative to provoke them. Everyone knew that Durin was a moonshiner and was one of the original triumvirates of Turnaire City, but they didn't know more details, and they didn't know that Durin was actually finished. They were reluctant to provoke Doolin because they were afraid that Doolin would go out to take revenge on them after a short sentence, and if they knew that Doolin was basically left now, they were afraid that someone would soon attack Doolin and them.

Quiet days seem unusually slow, and every morning after breakfast there is a short break before work. The Tennell Regional Prison is vertically managed, under the head of the Imperial Prison Administration, which generally never interferes in the specific affairs of the local prisons, and the only thing it does during the year is to collect specific information about the inmates in each prison and the prisoners who have been released from prison.

They have no policy, no local allocation, and the maintenance of the regional prisons needs to be operated by the prisons themselves, which are self-funded. To manage so many prisoners, to feed them, to feed them, to take care of their clothing and other expenses, plus the salaries of the prison administrators, is a lot of money. So the vast majority of prisons are running small businesses that take advantage of the cheapness of inmates who don't have to pay extra for labor to generate revenue.

Sometimes it is to take orders from some capitalists, and sometimes it will produce some things on their own and sell them in exchange for the cost of maintaining the operation of the prison.

The other part of the cost comes from the "donations" of the inmates' families or the forces to which they belong, these donations are not just simple donations, and the wardens in various places have their own names to handle this special fund, and here these donations are said to be the expenses of outsiders to improve the lives of inmates. The money goes directly to the warden's coffers, but they prepare an "account" for the inmates to spend extra.

For example, cigarettes, a cigarette that costs a dollar outside costs ten dollars here. A chicken leg may cost less than five cents outside, but here it's three dollars a dollar. Even if the inmates want to use the things they produce themselves, they have to pay ten times the price to buy them.

It has been said that there are two kinds of people in prison who cannot afford to offend, and those who do not take their lives seriously at all, and these people are some complete lunatics who may not want to live at all. Maybe you just look at him one more time, and he can do everything he can to kill you for it, so this kind of person can't be offended.

The second type of person who cannot be offended is the "rich", which includes those who live in "villas" and those who have a thick private ledger. Without exception, these people have a close relationship with the prison authorities, and the prison guards have always had a "loving" mentality for them, and they have also violated the prison management regulations, they may only be confined, but the "poor" will not be able to get out of bed for ten days and half a month.

Durin's people belong to the second type, but there are some differences from the other second people, he still has to work. It's not that anyone forced him to work, but he felt that it was not bad to experience this kind of life, which was an increase in experience and psychological progress.

What's more, he finally defeated the big man in the dream in a certain aspect. The big man was shot within a few days of being in prison, he didn't live a prison life at all, but Doolin did. Although the experience feels a little ...... But always on the winning side.

While Dührin sometimes thanked the big man for giving him a wealth of experience and experience, he also had a comparative psychology that he himself was not very clear, he felt that he would become a big man like the big man, and that he would be better than him, live longer, have more power and higher status.

Because he's Doolin!

Just as Durin and his party were about to go back to rest and finish eating, a ball flew over.

In this world, there are ball games, and in any world, people have an inexplicable love for chasing round, rolling and bouncing things. Ball games are also quite popular in this world, and there are two main types, football and handball. The rules of football are relatively simple, and they are more like the football of the world in Doolin's dreams, but handball is different. Somewhat similar to a collection of volleyball and rugby.

The ball cannot land on the ground and must be placed in the opponent's net during the movement to win. In this process, except for not punching the opponent, not kicking the opponent, and not having obvious aggressive movements, all ramming and pushing are considered reasonable movements.

People love handball, not because they like the artistry of handball, but because they like to watch their kind of blood splatter on the pitch and like to see people get hurt. Whenever there was blood, the audience would stand up and chant as if they were enchanted.
