Chapter 286: White Powder
Soon the Protestants, who had an absolute advantage in numbers, broke through the defense line of the glasses man, and rushed into the compound of the tobacco company with teeth and claws.
Hearing the sound of the tobacco company fighting, Rockefel also ran out to watch, and he asked me, "Manager, do you want us to go over and help?" ”
I glanced at Rockefeller and quipped, "Are you running for governor of the island?" Who are you going to help in the past? ”
Rockefeller touched his head awkwardly and said, "I'm afraid that they will hurt our distillery if they fight, and I seem to have heard an explosion inside just now." ”
I said, "It doesn't matter, I know who caused the explosion, don't worry, as long as they make a fuss in the tobacco company, it won't hurt our winery, and besides, I think the police and soldiers should come forward if they let them make trouble for a while." ”
The Protestants who stormed the tobacco company rummaged through the various workshops of the tobacco company, although they acted recklessly, but they did not smash it, as if they were looking for something purposefully, and the man with glasses and his men tried to stop it, but they were controlled by the Protestants who picked up the guns.
After searching for a long time, the Protestants set their sights on a locked room, at first they asked the man with glasses to hand over the key, but the man with glasses insisted that he didn't know where to throw the key, and then, the Protestants found tools and knocked on the door and smashed it open, and found several packets of white powder on the table in the room.
The Protestants who found the white powder were extremely excited, and they came to the man with the white powder in their hands, and the leading Protestant asked triumphantly, "How do you explain this?" I see how you die with a duck's hard mouth! ”
The man with glasses snorted coldly twice and said disapprerovingly: "It's just a few packets of white powder, what do you have to be excited about." ”
"What's this white powder? Is it the poison you put into tobacco? ”
"Joke, how can a few packets of white powder be poison?"
"If it's not poison, do you dare to taste it?"
"Why should I take a bite? Isn't it true that anything that is not poison can be eaten? is not poisonous, do you eat it? ”
"You!" The Protestants didn't know what to say when they were scolded by the man with glasses, and in the absence of modern professional scientific testing instruments, they really couldn't figure out the composition of these white powders, but there must be something wrong with the appearance of a few packets of white powder in the tobacco company for no reason, or locked in a hidden room.
"What are you doing?" As he spoke, Sandro, the commander of the Island Convoy, came to the door of the tobacco company, and before entering the tobacco company, he turned his head to look at me, said nothing, and stepped into the courtyard.
"You're here, Commander, and if you come a little later, I'm afraid Duke Jackson's tobacco company will be demolished by these Protestants!" After seeing Sandro, the man in glasses breathed a sigh of relief.
But Sandro frowned and asked him, "What's the matter with your cigarettes?" How did I hear that someone smoked your cigarette to death? ”
"Yes, Commander, our companion died smoking a cigarette from a tobacco company, and we found this in a tobacco company." As he spoke, the leading Protestant also handed Sandro the white powder in his hand.
Sandro took the white powder and looked at it carefully, took out another point and put it in his nose and sniffed it, and then asked the man in glasses, "What is this?" ”
Sandro's attitude surprised the man with glasses, and he wondered for a while, how could this bald Sandro feel like a Protestant? What medicine did he take wrong? This tobacco company is nominally the Duke of Jackson's property, huh?
"Commander, these are just useless white powders, should you ask these Protestants what they want to do now?"
"I don't need you to teach me how to do it, you say that these white powders are useless, so since they are useless things, what do you keep them for?"
In the face of Sandro's questioning, the man with glasses frowned, strictly speaking, he actually didn't know what those white powders were, those things were left in the tobacco company by mysterious people, saying that it was a special chemical synthesis, of course, they didn't directly add these white powders to tobacco, and then added some other chemical ingredients, so strictly speaking, those white powders are a kind of raw materials.
"Lord Commander, it seems that the laws of the Empire do not stipulate that citizens are not allowed to place useless things in their homes, right?"
"There is no such rule, but it is not up to you to decide whether it is useful or not, I will take these white powders back to investigate, and if it is found that it is not ordinary useless powder, then I will ask you to go to the barracks to explain it clearly."
Sandro said that he would take away all the white powder, and the man with glasses immediately became nervous, and he said to Sandro: "Lord Commander, is it illegal for you to take away citizens' personal belongings without any evidence?" ”
"Illegal?" Sandro smiled disapprovingly and said, "I'm breaking the law, what can you do to me?" ”
"You! Aren't you afraid I'll tell Duke Jackson about this? ”
"Don't move the Duke out at every turn, although he appointed you to be the manager of the tobacco company, it doesn't mean that you are the Duke's person, besides, the Duke won't agree to you doing anything wrong in the tobacco company, right?"
I quietly came to the courtyard of the tobacco company, standing at the outskirts of the crowd and watching the movement inside, to be honest, Sandro's attitude surprised me too, I didn't expect him not only to help the glasses man, but even a little deliberately aimed at him, what kind of tricks is this big bald head with a bad stomach playing?
"What about these Protestants, Lord Commander? They broke into my tobacco company and hurt people, don't you plan to pursue it? ”
"They were emotional because of the death of their companions, and although they did it, didn't you do it too? At best, they're beating each other, and they've found the white powder out of your house, and if it turns out to be poisonous, they've done a good job. ”
Speaking of which, Sandro is obviously deliberately biased in favor of the Protestants, and even makes people wonder if these Protestants could have been called by Sandro on purpose, but the question is that they didn't fight and make trouble some time ago? Why did you not only release your suspicions so quickly, but also pay you back to me?
In the face of Sandro's tough attitude, the glasses man finally had to give in, and reluctantly let Sandro take away the packets of white powder, and those Protestants were even more proud, and when they left, they sneered at the glasses man, and when the song ended, the tobacco company was left in a mess, and all the employees sat on the ground in frustration.
I wanted to step forward and comfort the glasses man for a few words, but looking at the glasses man with murderous eyes in his eyes, I decided to forget it, since this matter has nothing to do with me, why should I join in the fun.
Back at the winery, Chu Jing's girl appeared in front of me again, she clapped her hands and asked me, "How is it, I invited you to watch a big play, do you still plan to continue to refuse my cooperation proposal?" As she spoke, Chu Wei suddenly took out a gun from her waist, to be honest, my heart rose to my throat at that moment, she sneered and handed the gun to me: "Look at you, you take it for me first, I will tidy up my clothes, and my clothes are messed up when I went over the wall just now." ”
