240. Persuade Churchill, Tang Chen Nan, then pretend to be one
Longjing tea from the East, appearing on the dining table is slightly inconsistent.
Churchill had a smile on his face, but he had put the message on the surface.
Russell knew he was warning himself with a tact, but he wasn't going to stop.
The Tang people in Gary Lane will be of great use in the future, and he knows too well what Churchill is calculating.
After all, the status of the Tang people in the British Empire was very low, and the superiors were dismissive of them, unwilling to even communicate with them, let alone pay attention to their lives.
Russell is different, he knows the Tang people very well, this is a very united and hardworking people......
"Haha, how was the lunch break? Heard of a hearty lunch? ”
"Yes, it tastes good, it's my favorite taste."
"Well, Campo, come and smoke a cigar, which is made with Tunisian tobacco and tastes very good."
"Thank you."
Cut off the head and tail of the cigar and light it.
The smoke came out without passing through his lungs, and the pure white smoke floated in the air, caught by Churchill's eyes, and then dissipated with a bang.
"Campo, I never thought you would do things so beautifully, it really surprised me."
"Without Mr. Churchill's support, I am afraid it would have been difficult for me to find clues to the arms."
"Haha, I'm very happy to be able to say a compliment from your mouth. I don't seem to think you're a man of words. ”
"Yes, it means that Mr. Churchill has a very unusual place in my heart."
Churchill looked at him with a wink, and after a moment, he picked up his coffee cup and took a sip without glancing at Longjing tea.
"How are you going to do that?"
Hearing this, Russell put down the teacup, leaned forward, and whispered, "We should make a lot of money, the more the better." Do you know what's going on over there in India? ”
Churchill nodded solemnly: "This matter is being discussed." ”
What's up?
On April 13, 1919, the city of Amritsar in India was the scene of a massacre of the Indian people by the British and Indian colonial authorities.
It all started in March, when the Lorat Act was enacted, and the people of India immediately staged protest demonstrations and strikes, school strikes, and market boycotts.
The colonial government arrested and expelled two Indian rulers in Amritsar City, and more than 30,000 people held a protest rally in the city hall square, which was suppressed by the armed police and army, and the demonstration turned into a popular uprising!
The gang drove out the colonial army and seized the railway station, the telegraph office, and the telephone office.
On the night of April 10, General Dale led the LinkedIn army into the city, and on the 13th, more than 20,000 people gathered in Jerlian Wallappe Square to celebrate the local holiday.
Immediately, Dale led an army equipped with armored vehicles to surround the square, block the entrance and exit of the square, and fire machine guns at the crowd for ten minutes......
This tragic news was blocked by the colonial government for 4 months, and it was only revealed in October, which completely aroused the determination of the masses in India to oppose the British!
This incident paved the way for India's independence and plunged the British Empire into a scandal.
As a result of this incident, more than 1,200 people were killed and more than 3,600 were injured.
At this time, Russell mentioned the matter in India, it was just the end of September.
The Cabinet is debating how to keep things down, or whether to bring Dale back, otherwise he will remain in India and may well be their first target for revenge.
It was necessary to bring back Dale, his stay would only cause fierce emotions among the Indians, and if something happened again, the British Empire would be disgraced.
"What do you suggest?"
Churchill asked.
Russell smiled: "This is something that the cabinet should discuss, I just want to say that the current situation is not optimistic, the radicals can no longer control them, then it is time to change the moderates to calm the anger." ”
Churchill paused, staring curiously into his eyes.
"You're very interesting, and you can see it accurately. Are you sure that they will not revolt? ”
Russell said: "In the big picture, it is a fact that even if they revolt, the British Empire would be able to quell it." ”
"Listen to you, they will be independent after all?"
"Although I don't want to admit it, it is possible for cattle and horses to jump in circles, let alone a group of dirty people."
"Hahaha, that's right! What you say is exactly what I think. Campo, I really didn't misread you, so what are you going to do in the next few years? What can be done for me? ”
Russell said sincerely: "Mr. Churchill, you can't say that there will still be a place for you in the next cabinet, can you?" So, what I'm going to do is make more money, organize the members of the union associations, make sure that they put every vote into the useful people, and the councillors in my district, you will be obedient too. ”
Churchill pondered for a moment and slowly raised his head: "Okay, what do you need?" ”
"I want to be transferred to the Metropolitan Police in six months."
"Yes, London is different from Birmingham, you need to be mindful of the way."
"Understood. Mr. Churchill, my man has offended a knight. ”
"Can't you handle this kind of thing?"
"Of course it can be handled, and now this knight may have gone to serve Queen Victoria."
Churchill raised his eyebrows and smiled: "You have such a big guts...... I don't care, though, that's how I'm different from those lazy customers. ”
"Yes, you are a hard-working guest, a true ruler for the country and the people."
Churchill was very useful when he heard this, and his ideal was to run the country well, and it was better for him to say what was what he said.
This is why he admired Mussolini and Adolf, and he felt from the bottom of his heart that dictatorship was the end of justice.
In this meeting, the two talked more deeply than the first time, and Russell's words were very direct and sharp, so that Churchill also thought about it for a long time before he reacted.
Just like his heart, Russell Campo is very much admired by him, besides, few of Churchill's subordinates are capable, and they are all rampage and use their brains? That's humiliating them!
After leaving the hotel, it was already evening.
Russell and Mensah arrive at a nightclub, which is somewhat similar to a nightclub, with singing singers and dancing girls, and a place where nobles and celebrities mingle.
ordered two bottles of wine and snacks, and a woman came over to talk, but Russell ignored it, and Mensa naturally didn't dare to move.
They came to meet people, and it wasn't long before Tommy and John walked in, looking at the luxurious nightclub, with some envy and fire in their eyes.
】
John excitedly tugged at Tommy's arm, but Tommy slapped him, looked at Russell's position and ran straight over.
"Mr. Campo."
"Is it done?"
"Yes."
Tommy nodded.
Russell invited the two to sit down, and only then did they hear them talk about the cause of Sir Pentin's death.
Just as Mensa had handed them the vial, Sir Pantin had died of a heart attack, and Tommy and John didn't have much effort.
At that time, Pantin happened to be on a date with a noblewoman in a restaurant, and seemed to be practicing how to get along with noblewoman, and Tommy made a waiter to bring wine and food to the table.
And a whole bottle of medicine was poured into the food and wine, and when Pantin died, the noblewoman was already frightened and stupid.
Tommy was also very kind enough to rescue Pantin......
It's as simple as that.
Russell nodded: "Good job, you guys have fun here tonight, and go back to Birmingham tomorrow." ”
"What about you?"
"I have something else."
Tommy nodded, he, like John, was curious about the nightclub.
Birmingham is no place of this size, full of pubs and bars, and the only entertainment is drinking, listening to the drunkards boast about how high they are and how they are down.
Finally, there was a woman who sang and was taken under the command of Director Campo......
Mensah said: "This nightclub is run by Italians, who bribed Zhengjie in London, secretly resold arms, tobacco, and robbed ......"
Tommy blinked, "Got it." ”
Russell got up and left with Mensah.
John glanced at Tommy, and seeing that his brother was so eager, he said, "Director Campo is gone, John." ”
"Can I go play?"
"Chief Campo let us have a good time."
"Haha, okay! Thank you, Director Campo. ”
John laughed, took a sip of his wine, and rushed to the dance floor.
Tommy, on the other hand, was staring around from his seat, watching the crowd and the Italians on guard.
Immediately, he got up and walked over to the three noblewomen.
--
London streets.
Mensah followed behind Russell and said, "Boss, the dead jazz has two companies, should we ......"
"No, we can do business, but we must not harm anyone. Mensa, business is a robbery of civilization, not a violent fantasy, and Pantin's death has nothing to do with us, and his business has nothing to do with us. ”
"Understood." Mensa nodded.
The two picked up a car on the road and drove to Remhouse, east of London.
Since 1800, a number of Tang laborers and sailors have been living in London, settling in the dirty dockyard to the east.
This is also the earliest gathering point of the Tang people, and Remhaus is famous for its large tobacco houses and slum kilns.
In 1914, there were almost a few hundred Tang people running about 30 shops and restaurants in Lymhaus, mainly serving Tang crews.
Up to now, more than 4,000 Tang people have settled in Lymhaus again, and there are many mobile Tang crew members who have settled here.
Later, in 1934, the Remhaus district was demolished.
At the end of World War II, Tjue Lok Street replaced Lymhouse as the largest Chinatown settlement, Chinatown.
"Stop at the intersection ahead, Mensa."
"Okay, boss."
A car stopped at the intersection, and when the two got out of the car, they saw the crowd inside, it was a group of yellow-skinned people, squatting on both sides of the road smoking and chatting.
Russell walked down the street, followed by Mensah, who was a little uncomfortable with dealing with the Donalds, always thinking that the Dons were fierce, as was the case with the Dons in Gary Lane, Birmingham.
In the end, the only way to do this was to prohibit the Tang people from traveling, and the whites could not enter Gary Lane without permission. However, in order to make money, Zhang Qingquan let the white people go in and out of Gary Lane, and he also wanted to sell more clothes and let the girls pick up two more guests.
Make money, not chilling.
Lymhouse is different from Gary Lane, where there are thousands of Chinese people, and when they saw the two white men walking in, they all got up and stared at them with a look of hatred.
These Tang people were not very cleanly dressed, their clothes were covered with dust and oil, and at a glance they were going to the dockyard to do odd jobs.
Russell walked up to a store with a red lantern and knocked on the door twice.
Suddenly, the door was pulled open.
A short-haired man, wearing a British suit, frowned and asked, "What's the matter?" ”
"Chen Nan."
The man in the suit nodded and moved out of his seat, "Please come in." ”
Russell and Mensah followed him inside, and there were many boxes against the wall in the dim pathway, and you didn't have to smell them to know what was inside.
Chen Nan is currently the boss of Lumhouse, and he runs several restaurants and shops, tobacco houses......
This man had some whimsy, but he didn't have enough people under him, so he stopped.
Later, the Italians were provoked, and the Jews were also involved, so Chen Nan's life was not easy.
The man in the suit led them into a small house where several people were playing mahjong.
Chen Nan looked up with a cigarette in his mouth, but did not speak.
Opening the door, Russell and Mensa walked in, found a sofa to sit down, picked up the cigarette on the table and lit it, and said to the man in the suit very unceremoniously, "Close the door." ”
When they came in, they didn't have the bodies of Russell and Mensa, was it because of self-confidence? No, it's not.
It's because Chen Nan is here, and because of Russell's relationship with Zhang Qingquan in Gary Lane, he is the only white man who stretches out his hand to the Tang people, and he is still the head of the police station!
If you change to the position of the Eastern Country, it is the garrison of a city, and it is powerful.
After playing a round of mahjong, Chen Nan turned his head to look at Russell and said with a smile: "Play two? ”
"Come on."
Russell got up and sat down at the mahjong table, Chen Nan frowned, "Will it?" ”
"Not really."
"How big is the play?"
“51。”
Chen Nan smiled: "You are the chief of the Birmingham Police Department, and you only dare to play 5 pounds and 10 pounds?" ”
"£500, £1,000, you misunderstood."
Chen Nan was stunned, and the two subordinates on the table were also stunned.
"You're pretending!" This subordinate sits in the south and speaks in a dialect.
Russell pretended not to understand, and Mensa sat on the couch and did not understand.
Chen Nan shouted, "Shut up." ”
"Let's get started. Haven't you ever played mahjong before and know how to play it? ”
Russell said, "I'm a quick learner. ”
Chen Nan nodded in a daze.
Immediately, code cards, play dice, draw cards, look at cards......
Russell sat in the west, and Chen Nan, who was sitting in the east, finished playing, he touched the cards and looked at them, and directly pushed them down.
"Dihu, pure and pure green dragon seven pairs."
At that moment, Chen Nan and his subordinates were dumbfounded.
With his mouth open, looking at his cards, his brain went down directly.
"You ......"
Russell said expressionlessly: "How many?" ”
"No, I don't know... Didn't mess around. ”
Chen Nan was stunned, and looked at Russell reluctantly, what he just said was Tang dialect!
Then I heard Russell say: "It doesn't matter how many times, I don't want money." I want his life! ”
When Chen Nan and the others didn't react, Russell suddenly made a move.
He grabbed the man sitting south with one hand, what did this person just say about him, pretending to be better?
Heh, let's put one.
Chen Nan happened to be sitting across from him, so he saw it very really.
Russell raised his hand slightly, touched the man's neck with the tip of his middle finger, and the man fell to the ground and lost his breath.
It's happening too fast......
Didn't give him time to react at all.
