237, Aunt May, gifts and warnings for the Razor Party
The establishment of Campo Integrated Services is very forward-looking, and Russell's intention is to use "service" to capture people's hearts and minds and grasp the information of all industries and classes in the Birmingham area.
At the same time, it can also use service companies to regulate certain important industries and operate non-traditionally.
There are business models in the company, such as who opens or gathers, they will invite some good-looking models to the platform, so that the public can get up to the grade at a glance.
There were two teams of models, one led by Penny and one led by Liz.
The two men are familiar with a lot of business, not only in the professional field, but also in all kinds of etiquette.
On the day of the reopening of the Camptown Racecourse, Liz and Penny led more than 50 beautiful women, dressed in colorful and uniform dresses, standing in various positions of the racecourse, to the eyes of the visiting nobles.
The heart said that the new owner of the racecourse really has a brain, and he understands life very well, and knows how to enjoy it even more.
Tommy was dressed and stood at the door of the building as a greeter, next to Evis, the financial manager, and John stared at the back of Evis's head with disdain, thinking to himself that if Eves made any moves, he would do it directly.
Unfortunately, Eavies is very polite and has a good time with Tommy.
After all, when Billy Kempo went to Garrison's Tavern before, if it weren't for Evis's two more words, Kempo would most likely have killed the Shelby family in the tavern, how could he leave them alive?
Besides, Eavis is now Russell Campo's person, even if he doesn't like him, he has to hold it in his heart and not show it, otherwise it won't be the Shelby family who will be cleaned up.
The operation of the racecourse was taken over by the Shelby family, but the money earned was 28 percent, and the Shelby family could only take 2, Russell represented all the officers of the Birmingham Police Department, and Churchill, the cabinet minister in London, took 8 percent.
This is not bullying, and if it weren't for Russell's tolerance, the Razors would have gone to nail the coffin board to Jesus a long time ago.
On the contrary, Russell is at a loss, and the horse farm was shot down by him, but he can't manage it because of his identity, otherwise there will be something to do with the Shelby family.
This is also the reason why he is not ready to do the razor, and he has to have this group of people under his hands to do things.
Public is public, private is private, how can it be confused.
Tommy looked at the smiling models standing in the distance and next to him, and his heart was a little uncomfortable, and he always felt that a pair of eyes were staring at him, and he looked back at Evis.
"Where did you find these models? I saw that the two leaders seemed to be Liz and Penny, but they weren't ......."
Eavis laughed and said, "Mr. Shelby, these people are models for a general service company, and they will shoot magazines and film series in Birmingham in the future, and the boss has said that they may also act in movies."
Tommy was stunned, "Boss? Chief Campo?"
Eves was speechless, and the clever Tommy immediately thought of something.
"Tomorrow is the Jockey Club, and I chose to open today, just to make you show your face, and the boss will come to support you, and he values you very much."
Tommy nodded slowly, "Yes, I am very grateful to Mr. Campo for giving me the opportunity, and I will repay him with all my might."
Racecourses can make a lot more money than underground casinos, which can make five or six hundred pounds a week, which is considered a high income, but racetracks can make thousands of pounds a week, and if you are lucky, it is not impossible to make tens of thousands of pounds.
When the time comes, 28 shares, how can the Shelby family have thousands of incomes, plus the income of casinos, chocolate factories, and tobacco factories...... It has overshadowed the Austin Motor Company!
Not long after, Mensa drove Russell to the racecourse, and as soon as he got out of the car, Tommy and Eavis greeted him, saying a few compliments, and Russell only went in and out of his left ear.
"Are the people from the Li family here?"
Tommy's face froze, and he said, "Here we are, I'll send them to the stables and stands to clean up the garbage."
Russell sneered: "They took advantage of it, but they didn't do much, do you think they should be here?"
"Director Campo, the woman of the Lee family and my brother John are husband and wife, I ...... it."
Russell turned his head to stare at him, "You may have forgotten something important."
Tommy was stunned.
Next to Mensa said, "We only found some of the arms in the horse farm, and a large number of arms have not been found, do you think the Li family is hiding?" Or is it that your Shelby family is in hiding?"
"No, it can't ......."
"How could it be? If you don't believe me, when you get back to Birmingham you can check out your old tobacco docks, where there's a wrecked ship."
Tommy was shocked, he definitely didn't want Russell to grab the handle, but Russell had the means to make him comply, so he had to cooperate obediently.
At first thought, if this can be done, then there are too many problems with Kempo's death.
First of all, the munitions, how did they get to the horse farm?
This is followed by Colley...... Ah, Colley and Russell are in conflict, and they are still overwhelming and unsolvable enemies!
If Russell had killed Colley that night and stole the arms again......
No, the time is not right!
The more Tommy thought about it, the more confused his head became, it used to be like two lines crossing, but now it became a mess.
I can't figure it out.
"Tommy, as long as you can make the Lee family obedient, then they will live well in Birmingham."
With that, Mensa followed Director Campo into the hall.
The hall has not been renovated, but has been re-cleaned by the Shelby family, and the furnishings and furniture inside are the same, almost unchanged, the only change is that the name of the office upstairs has been changed.
As soon as Russell entered the door, a large number of nobles and celebrities surrounded him and greeted him to get closer.
These people were all invitations sent by Russell himself, otherwise they would not have come.
Among them was a widow named Mae Carlton, the same one who had last looked at Russell in the hall, and who was now a little closer to Russell.
She was a skilled trainer, and Russell asked her to train a few horses, and the two of them would ride them to play or put them on the horse farm to compete.
May was five years younger than Russell, only thirty-two, and it was the time of grace and beauty.
With peach blossoms in her eyes, she asked, "Can I invite you to my house next week?"
Russell laughed and said, "Is there a family gathering between the two families?"
"You can take your children with you."
"Forget it, they have their own business to do, I'll go if I have time next week."
"Okay, then we can go hunting and then roast meat in the yard, will you handle the deer?"
"Of course, I've got a good job."
"I'm looking forward to it."
Mae Carleton replied with a smile.
She also has careful thoughts in her heart, a widow is very difficult to survive in this era, but she is a rich widow, and she has a lot of business under her name, and horse trainer is her occupation before she got married, and now she has nothing to do and picked it up again.
Being able to take Russell's shoulders, Mei is looking forward to it, if she has such a backer, she won't have to worry about her family property being swallowed up by other nobles in the future.
But she didn't want to think about it, there was a word called luring wolves into the house.
The two stood in the corner and chatted for a while, without making small moves, although the concubine has a lover's intention, but it can't be too open, the kind of stimulation that is sneaky is a pleasure that ordinary people can't imagine.
In the afternoon, there was a drinking party, followed by a dance.
The aristocratic ladies gather together to drink and chat, during which Russell lifts Tommy to the surface, letting the nobles and some of the guests know that the Shelby family is no longer what it used to be, and they have become Russell Campo's sharpest knives.
At the ball, Russell sat on the couch, but many celebrities invited him, and finally Mae Carlton won the first dance with Russell.
Then there's Aunt Polly, who jumps twice and stomps on Russell's shoes, and then says sorry, and says I'm going to shine his shoes tonight.
Is that a serious shoeshine? Where to rub it, who doesn't know!
"Did you find your child?"
Suddenly, he was originally smiling and laughing
Benefit, the expression froze instantly.
She looked at Russell in a daze, she couldn't understand the music in her ears, and her feet didn't move.
"You... How do you know?"
Russell smiled and said, "If you are careful with me again, I will never see your son in your life, do you believe it?"
"You dare me to ...... Campo, I beg you not to do that."
Polly first warned excitedly, but before he could finish his warning, he changed his attitude.
She knew very well that the last thing Russell was afraid of threats, because her threats didn't count, but Russell's movements were fast. How did the Shelby family fall into Russell's hands before?
The silent slow knife almost pushed the Shelby family to a desperate situation!
"Don't be a demon, you know?"
"Ming, understood."
"You're too old, your skin is sagging, go ahead, have a glass of wine to slow down."
Russell patted her buttocks, trembling.
Polly nodded his head, "Thank you."
After the dance, Russell raised his glass and joined the circle of Birmingham guests, mainly judges, parliamentarians and leaders of various associations.
They don't usually have anything to do, and they want to make a fuss, and the news of the recent Liverpool strike reached Birmingham, and they say it is a continuation of the strike in London.
Russell said on the spot, "I think there will be a strike in Birmingham from August to October, and if the union doesn't care about it, then I can only say sorry in advance."
These words were very gentle, but everyone present felt the killing intent in them.
Not against the striking workers, but at the heads of the unions.
Following
Camptown Racecourse is hosting an unprecedented race that will take place over three days.
During this period, the king, princes, and other nobles came to participate, and they also joined in the fun, contributing and supporting the entertainment industry in Britain.
They all saw that Camptown Racecourse was different from other racecourses, because in addition to the shiny hostesses, there were special VIP seats, and the management had also improved a lot.
There is a water bar, a café, a dessert house, a recreation room in the building...... Wait, there's almost a table to play poker here.
The king and the nobles were very new when they saw it, and they thought that they should also renovate other racecourses when they returned to London.
After the event, the king and his nobles left Camptown.
Russell gave the officers on duty two days off and said that bonuses would be paid at the end of the month, and the officers who came to be on duty all went back with a smile.
Seeing that Russell hadn't left, Tommy hurriedly caught up and said, "Director Campo, we made 20,000 pounds in three days of competition!"
This is an absolutely fair and impartial event without any tricks.
Just kidding, the king and the prince's horses are all pulled up to race, how dare Tommy make trouble under their noses, isn't that looking for death?
"Credited to the account, settled at the end of the month. Tommy, don't keep your eyes on the racecourse, there's still a lot more to do."
Tommy tilted his head and asked, "Do you have something to order?"
"I need you to go to London and get a batch of shoe-making machines."
"You want to make shoes?"
Russell didn't speak, stared at Tommy coldly, Tommy looked at him wrongly, and hurriedly responded, "Okay, I'll go to London myself."
"Please."
Patting him on the shoulder, Russell departed.
Tommy stood there and sighed, one wrong step, from Russell's appearance to the present, many things have happened that are not within Tommy's plan, which makes him feel that it is difficult to survive in the cracks, and it is even more difficult to be a cow and a horse for others.
The main thing is that the face is not good-looking!
"Tommy, if this continues, our Razor's honor will really be gone."
John said coldly beside him.
Tommy turned his head to stare at him, "Twenty thousand pounds in three days, and four thousand pounds in our hands, how much is the honor of the Razor Party worth?"
John was stunned, "Four thousand pounds?"
"It's already in our hands."
Polly walked out with his shoulders crossed and said, "Ida is clamoring at home to seek revenge on Campo, do you know how she got here all these days?"
"I'm sad about Freddy's departure, he's my good brother." Tommy sighed.
"But you forgot your hatred for four thousand pounds!"
Tommy frowned: "Hatred is born on the basis of the pound, how can you get revenge without money?" We can't afford guns and ammunition. You have to know that Campo is the chief of the Birmingham Police Department!"
Arthur nodded: "If Campo dies unexpectedly, London will send someone to investigate, and then we will not be able to survive in Birmingham."
John said, "Let Ida die, and don't be emotional to the Bolsheviks!" They're a bunch of crazy people."
"Do you know why the British Empire-led Paris Peace Conference did not involve Soviet Russia?"
When Tommy saw them shaking his head, he explained, "Because the wind is blowing against the Bolsheviks, and although we are Gypsies, we live in England......
Polly spread his hands, "So, you're still impressed by Campo. Tommy, this doesn't look like you, you were very imposing when you first came back."
Tommy said, "Now that someone is leading us to make money, why should I use my brain? He can make us more if he stretches out his fingers!"
"Arthur and John will come with me to London tomorrow, and Polly will stay."
Polly frowned, "You don't care about the horse farm?"
"It's enough for Evis and you here, and the people of the Li family won't make trouble. Now let's go home and go to the old tobacco dock to see the gift that Director Campo has given us!"
Everyone was stunned, "What gift?"
"You can give us the gift of being hanged on the execution ground."
"What?"
The crowd was shocked.
