Chapter 113: Cannibalism
The headquarters of the King's Fort are located in the 1st district of Yida, the entire district of Yida is its birthplace, and there are offices and warehouses in each district.
As the vice president of the Construction Association, Lloyd is in charge of the King's Fort warehouse in Yida District 3, and there are a lot of rare metals and ores in the warehouse, but Lloyd can't embezzle all of them for black market trading, otherwise even if he is the deputy director, he will not be able to eat and walk around.
Therefore, Lloyd will use his authority to allocate goods from warehouses in other nearby districts, and collect ** goods by making up the number, which can minimize suspicion.
At this moment, he was sitting in the spacious office of the vice president of the building association, with his legs crossed, sipping a big cigar, and was about to hang a message to Lehman to inquire about the progress of the matter, when Lehman pushed open the office door.
"Mr. Lloyd." Lehman looked a little flustered.
"Did you find anything out of the ordinary? What exactly is Loren producing or processing? Lloyd flicked the ash of his cigarette and asked in surprise.
Lehman shook his head: "It's not this matter, when we went to investigate last night, we happened to hear a piece of news, a news that was extremely unfavorable to us. ”
"What's the news?" Lloyd's face changed slightly.
"That kid Loren has found out that most of the goods we provide are defective, and he hasn't revealed it, just to report us to Burton, the president of the black market?" Lehman said timidly, "We were lucky when we went over last night, and we happened to hear them discussing this matter secretly in the office. ”
After a pause, Lehman said again: "So I didn't do anything, I didn't dare to startle the snake and hurry back to report to you." ”
"What about the Black Taipo and them?" Lloyd's face darkened.
"I'll keep them at the factory, and if there's any movement in Loren, I'll keep them informed." Lehman paced back and forth in the office, "What to do?" What to do? Now the other party has all the evidence of the purchase in his hand, and once he sues us, he will definitely die! You also know President Burton's temper, and if you know someone will ruin his credibility, the consequences will be ......"
Although Lloyd seemed to be very calm, in fact, he was also as confused as Lehman, and he didn't even think much about why Loren contacted President Burton.
Lehman sighed, "If the goods were genuine, so many things wouldn't have happened. ”
Lloyd's eyes lit up suddenly, as if he had woken up the person in his dream, and blurted out: "Call Loren immediately, stating that we are going to replace the quantity of all defective products, and say that there is an inner ghost who has been hiding from me to eat at both ends, and I have just caught and solved it." In order to show my sincerity, we are willing to compensate with all the same amount of genuine goods. ”
Lehman hesitated: "Where can I find so many genuine products, I won't use them all......"
"Yes, all the genuine goods in the King's Fort warehouse." Lloyd nodded and said, "Anyway, it's just a temporary emergency, first plug the loopholes over there, and I can slowly adjust and supplement the genuine goods." ”
Lehman sighed, "That's all there is to it for now. ”
Lloyd immediately called the secretary in, quickly issued a bill of lading, ordered all the goods to be picked up, and transported them to the No. 13 warehouse of Kaijieda as soon as possible, and asked Lehman to hang up a communication to Loren in front of him, stating the reason for making it up.
After doing all this, Lloyd's heart finally let go, and he trusted Lehman who had been with him for many years. This time, even if he didn't blackmail Loren successfully, he still made so many transactions, and he didn't lose money.
The two talked for a while, and after Lehman left Lloyd's office, he didn't go back, but stayed downstairs in a bar across the street, and by late afternoon, the pickup and delivery procedures should have been completed.
Motionless as a wooden man, Lehman finally turned on the communication and dialed a number.
"King's Fortress Headquarters? I want to report, real-name report that Deputy Director Lloyd embezzled the goods in the warehouse of Yida District 3 for the purpose of enriching his own pocket after the transaction, and the metals and ores above the senior level in the warehouse have bottomed out......"
"Is there a health department in the three districts of Yida? I want to report the case, Lloyd, vice president of the District Building Association and deputy director of the King's Fort, is involved in the black market trading of rare metals and ores, and he is also the branch president of the black market trade fair in Yida District 3, I can provide specific details, yes, provide real name ......"
Hanging up the communication, Lehman gritted his teeth as if he had a bad breath, and said: "Dare to touch my wife, Lao Tzu and you will die together!" ”
Later in the day, a large number of genuine goods were secretly transferred, as well as a new piece of news, reassuring Loren: Lloyd, who held multiple senior titles, was arrested by the Ministry of Internal Affairs on suspicion of black market trading. It is reported that his subordinates provided a large number of clues for reporting.
However, after the Ministry of Internal Security, Lloyd's privately sold goods have disappeared, the so-called Kaijieda No. 13 warehouse is only a clothing buyer's stock location, except for a large number of clothes, after inspection, there is no trace of rare metals and minerals.
Loren wasn't afraid that this would track him down, because even the Klitz factory wasn't his name. The hallucinogens he released on Lehman were so powerful that he created a fictional idea that Lehman thought Lloyd had slept with his wife, and increased the value of Lehman's cherishing of his wife (which was actually not that high), which was Lehman's desperate motive for wanting to bring Lloyd down.
Of course, Lehman now can't tell which is real and which is illusory, and he doesn't even know that he has ever fallen into a fantasy.
The Klitz factory was closed for a few days, and only after the limelight had passed before production began again on Loren's orders.
Lloyd did not confess the deal with Loren, he supplied defective products without authorization, he was at fault first, and the confession of the deal was equivalent to confessing the fact that there was a terrible upline of President Burton, which was a pressure he simply could not bear. The only thing Lloyd wondered was why Lehman would accuse himself.
Lehman's accusations against Lloyd have been substantiated with sufficient evidence. Lehman, on the other hand, died suddenly in prison early one morning because he leaked a large number of black market trading insiders in the process of accusing Lloyd, and the cause of death is unknown.
Although the ten ordinary subordinates and the three of them, including the Black Taibao, were just small minions, if they were released like this, Luo Ren's plan would be easily exposed, so he repeated his old trick and directly used powerful hallucinogens to make these people achieve the effect of amnesia.
So far, Loren's parts production in the next few months is basically not worried.
And he happily foresaw that Lloyd had formed an indelible friendship with the prison of the Ministry of Internal Security for the rest of his life, and that it would probably be time to walk out of that door again.
……
The progress of factory processing began to accelerate, and under the recommendation of Shawner, half a month later, Loren had the honor to go to the Nebula Fortress's Spacestar construction base in Yida District 3.
Compared with the official Super Space Fortress, the Battlestar of the non-governmental organization is a large circle smaller, and the number of people that can accommodate it is not so much, but cheap always has the advantage of being cheap, at least it lowers the threshold for logging into the Battlestar. If a family tries to save money, they can always buy a place to enter the fortress for their offspring.
Loren visited the Nebula 6 Fortress, which is a shuttle-shaped fortress with three layers, the lowest floor is the work area, and the middle and upper floors are comprehensive areas, which can accommodate nearly 200,000 people. The entire fortress has more than 12,000 kinetic energy floats, which serve as the starting engine of the fortress.
Compared with the official Super Battlestar manufacturing standards, although it cannot reach that level, Nebula VI is still equipped with most of the living facilities and even entertainment facilities, and the installation of the pipe discharge system is very standardized and takes into account both economy and visual beauty.
Unfortunately, the entire fortress is not equipped with weapons, but there are weapons that can be installed quickly. This should be an official prohibition in Mogui, otherwise a fortress with a full arsenal of weapons would have made it easy to rebel in an area.
For this visit, Loren specially called Hamlet.
Hamlet doesn't say a word the whole time, he looks more closely than Loren, sometimes almost lying on the surface of a mechanical device, pulling out a magnifying glass to look closely.
After the tour of the control room, everyone left the Nebula Six fortress, and on the way back, Luo Lun exhaled sharply, and at this moment he realized that the project of building the fortress was much larger than he imagined, and the current financial resources of the Mudin family could not guarantee the completion of a real space fortress, and of course, there was a lack of manpower and material resources.
When it's unconventional, I'm afraid you have to take some unconventional measures!
"Are you really going to build a Battlefortress?" Hamlet, who had been following behind him, suddenly spoke up.
Obviously, after visiting Nebula VI Fort today, this guy finally realized that Loren was not trying to have fun for a while, but had always had the real idea of building a Battlestar.
