Chapter 181: Fermentation

"It's also strange to me to say this, my people have been guarding the door of the groom's house, no one has ever been in or out, and the groom has been staying at home well, and it is really incomprehensible that he suddenly committed suicide. But what is certain is that someone must have passed on the news to him. ”

James looked at Long Xin'er dissatisfiedly and said, "Miss Long, in fact, I don't like to hear your answer like this, now that the groom is dead, how do you ask me to give an account to Prince Charlie?" Once I, the Governor of the Island, have been removed, it's almost time for you to leave Paradise Island, right? ”

"Why should the Governor be so discouraged? Things don't have to be as bad as you think. Long Xin'er said lightly.

"What do you mean? What else is there to do about this? James asked impatiently.

"The groom died, and the content of the suicide note he left spread out, and now everyone knows that the groom is extremely dissatisfied with the abolition of slavery, so he wants to murder Prince Charlie, no matter what kind of attitude Prince Charles has towards the abolition of slavery before, at least this time he will be dissatisfied with the abolition of slavery, so once he is dissatisfied, who is most likely to be nervous? Duke Jackson, of course, the main promoter of the abolition of slavery, do you think that if things do come to that point, Duke Jackson will easily remove you as a staunch supporter? ”

"A staunch supporter?" James frowned and asked Long Xin'er, "When did I become a staunch supporter of Duke Jackson?" ”

"Your Excellency the Governor will figure it out if you think about it."

Sure enough, after learning about the death of the groom and the contents of the suicide note left by the groom, Prince Charles was very angry, on the one hand, he immediately sent someone to inform James that he must continue to investigate it strictly to see if the groom still has any accomplices, or whether there is a deeper conspiracy behind it, on the other hand, in front of many guards, he severely criticized the decision to abolish slavery.

However, although Prince Charles was very angry, he did not send someone to find Jackson, but invited Count Soros.

As soon as Count Soros entered Prince Charlie's room, he sensed that something was wrong with the atmosphere, he looked at Prince Charlie with a smile and asked, "What makes His Royal Highness so angry?" I heard that the murderer of the prince has committed suicide in fear of crime, so His Royal Highness should be happy, right? ”

"Huh, happy? What is there to be happy about? You've heard the contents of the suicide note left by the groom, right? The abolition of slavery not only did not bring new prosperity to the empire, but it sowed many evils, and some people today were dissatisfied with the murder of the prince, and tomorrow there may be people who dare to murder the queen. ”

"Your Royal Highness the Prince, please calm your anger, a little groom, maybe it's just an example."

"Case?" Prince Charles looked at the scheming Earl Soros, "I don't think this is an isolated case, when someone proposed the abolition of slavery, many citizens of the empire expressed opposition and concern, if it weren't for the reform ministers led by Duke Jackson, there would be no situation today." By the way, Lord Earl, you are the most famous business tycoon in the Empire, what do you think about the abolition of slavery? It should have a big impact on your business, right? ”

"Your Royal Highness, I am just a businessman, and I rarely comment on the political system, and the abolition of slavery will indeed have some impact on my business, but after all, this is a decision passed by the Queen herself, and if it has an impact, we businessmen will find a way to overcome it."

"Lord Earl really speaks well, no one can offend, no one pleases, no wonder the queen appreciates you so much, no wonder you can become the top business tycoon in the empire, it seems that I will learn more from you in the future." Prince Charles was quite dissatisfied with Soros's answer, and his words were cynical and weird.

Of course, Soros also felt Prince Charlie's dissatisfaction, although Prince Charles usually loves art, has no interest in politics, and has no power attachment, Count Soros can completely ignore his dissatisfaction, but then again, Prince Charles is a prince after all, and he can't really offend him. So Soros thought for a while and said to Prince Charlie, "His Royal Highness the Prince made fun of me, but I was just afraid that trouble would come out of my mouth, so I have always been cautious in my words." Actually, if you want me to say that it is okay to abolish slavery now, it is okay not to abolish slavery, and people from different positions look at the problem from different angles. As you just said, the abolition of slavery is strongly promoted by Duke Jackson and other reformist ministers, and is currently approved by the Queen, so whoever criticizes this reform now will cause a lot of dissatisfaction. ”

"You're saying I don't care about the contents of that suicide note? Even this matter is no longer pursued, so forget it? ”

"When it comes to this matter, His Royal Highness the Prince should be angry or angry, and those who should be held accountable can still be held accountable, but about the abolition of slavery, it is best not to be involved."

After leaving the Charlie, Soros told Chu Yi about his conversation with Prince Charlie, Chu Yi was very puzzled after listening, she asked Soros, "Don't you want to know the secret of Duke Jackson on Paradise Island?" Wouldn't it be easier for Prince Charles to make a fuss about abolition of slavery and expose Duke Jackson? Why did you persuade Prince Charles to make a big deal smaller? ”

Soros smiled mysteriously, then shook his head and said, "I didn't make Prince Charlie a big deal, I am retreating, and the fuller a bow is pulled back, the greater the strength of the rebound." ”

The death of a small groom made Prince Charlie, Duke Jackson, and Earl Soros all have their own small calculations, and a big storm is quietly brewing.

Their little abacus was crackling, and I was at the winery, and I asked Rockefey to order the kitchen to prepare a hearty dinner, and closed the winery door early.

Soon the night was falling, and I sat down at the top of the table, looking at the group of winery workers and technicians below. I poured a glass of rum, raised my glass and said to the crowd, "I was attacked at the distillery last time, thank you for your rescue, I have always remembered this in my heart, and I didn't have a chance to thank everyone, I will do this glass of wine first!" With that, I took my glass and drank it down.

"Actually, I also know that since you joined this winery, the income has not been very high, and I can't promise you anything in the short term, but everyone still follows me without hesitation, I am very moved, I solemnly promise you here, as long as this winery can make money in the future, there will be a share of me Han Dong, and there will definitely be a share of everyone here."

With that, I took the second glass of rum and drank it down, the two glasses were probably too quick and violent, and I almost didn't stand still.

Rockefeller hurriedly helped me sit down, and then said to everyone, "You can also see that our manager is a temperamental person, and everyone must have no problem following him." We took the wine from our glasses and saluted the manager. ”。

I staggered to my feet, filled the third glass of wine, and said to everyone, "What is disrespectful, everyone is brothers, come and do it together!" ”

The meal was quite pleasant, we talked a lot between the wine cups, and the big guys basically opened their hearts to talk freely, although I don't know how many of those words were scenes and how many were sincere, but every word was in my heart.
