Chapter 442 Sergeant, Our Promotion Is so Fast
After discussing some details, Sergeant Kevin said: "Jimmy, this matter is up to you, don't worry, wait two days for them to settle down, and give them a hard blow. If it is done well, Jimmy, next year I consider recommending you to the mayor for deputy sheriff."
Jimmy was overjoyed, "Good head, I will definitely make it beautiful."
In the corner of Sergeant Kevin's room, the hound lay motionless on the ground, but its ears were stuck open.
Kevin came home from get off work and left on his own horse. Only two security guards were left on duty at the security station. The hound suddenly stood up and ran into the night.
All the workers recruited by Hall Company went to another manor. During this month, Jiang Hao has built a factory building and dozens of wooden houses on his own land, which is enough to accommodate these workers.
"Guys, we have a place to live, we will provide food and meat, and there is clean water in the Los Angeles River next to it, which can be drunk directly. Take a rest today, and you can also think about whether to be a farmer or a worker. Tell me tomorrow Your decision."
The Chinese endure hardships and stand hard work. The conditions here are already very good. Those white people who came with them are also some shabby households. There is nothing to complain about. As long as someone protects them and their lives are stable, I believe it will get better and better.
The workers went back to their rooms, and Jiang Hao and Bill went back to their homes. Now that their manor was finished, Jiang Hao had just returned to the manor on horseback, when a dog came out of the darkness and barked twice at Jiang Hao.
Just as Pete was about to draw his gun, Jiang Hao immediately stopped him, "Peter, don't do it."
Let the others leave, Jiang Hao got off the horse and came to the hound, stroked the dog's head with his hand, the hound whined a few times comfortably, Jiang Hao saw some information about himself from his mind.
"Want to fuck me."
Jiang Hao's face darkened.
No one would have thought that he had already set up a dog room.
Jiang Hao patted the dog's head and asked him to go back by himself. Back in the house, Bill, Pete and Roy had just come back and were bragging with the guys. Jenny took the two servants to finish the meal. Jiang Hao came back, and everyone went together Sit at the table and start eating and drinking.
Jiang Hao raised his glass and said, "I wish our factory a smooth start and make a lot of money in the future."
"it is good!"
Everyone greeted each other and had a drink together.
Putting down his wine glass, Jiang Hao asked, "How is the situation in San Francisco?"
"It's almost the same as when we left before, but the attitude towards the Chinese there is getting worse and worse. During the time we were recruiting, there were two incidents of Chinese being beaten. Fortunately, no one was killed." Bill road.
Pete also said: "When we recruited Chinese, we were obstructed by some people, saying that we should not work for those dirty Chinese, but I taught the loudest guy with a gun, and it was much better later."
In today's West, toughness is the only way to survive.
At this time, Roy said: "Boss, there are still many people who want to follow, but they have many scruples. They don't know what's going on here. They are afraid of being cheated, and they are afraid that their life will be even more miserable than their current life when they come here." , I think if we take a few people back after we finish it here, as long as there is a publicity, more people will come over at that time, I think that at that time, we can't even pretend here."
Jiang Hao nodded, yes, the Chinese are afraid of being deceived by foreigners. They were deceived to come to the United States from China, and they may have been deceived several times in the United States, but they still have lingering fears.
"We need construction here. Starting tomorrow, we will divide those people into farmers and workers. Bill, Pete, and Roy are in charge of the factory, and Adams, Vaughn, Cobain, and others on the farm are assisted."
"It's not too late. We can catch up with today's cultivation. We can harvest a season of tobacco and tobacco. The factory will first use the purchased tobacco to make cigarettes. It is considered a trial production, and then try to sell them and make a brand first."
For the period of tobacco, Jiang Hao has a whole set of plans.
First of all, he is going to add Dama into the tobacco, so that their tobacco will make those smokers linger, and he is going to make a filter, which is a magical tool, the most high-end enjoyment, etc., and then promotes that it can prevent nicotine intake. Enter, absolutely easy to use.
There is no such thing as a filter now, and it was not until 1923 that a formal filter appeared for the first time. This must be registered as a patent, and anyone who produces filter cigarettes in the future will have to pay him.
What if there is no silk,
Then use crepe paper and cotton, and the effect can be achieved completely. This is what was used when the filter tip first appeared, and there is no technical difficulty.
Another thing is that he wants to improve the cigarette production machine. The current machine is very backward, and there are even manual cigarettes. Mechanized cigarettes have appeared, but only 50 cigarettes can be produced per minute.
In 1883, someone invented a more advanced cigarette rolling machine, which increased the rolling speed to about 200 cigarettes per minute.
And Jiang Hao has mastered a cigarette machine, using the current steam engine as power, it can produce 500 cigarettes per minute. If the power can keep up, he can increase the speed to 1,000 cigarettes per minute, which is 10% of the current cigarette efficiency. 20 times, proper sci-fi level crushing.
You know, the cigarette industry in this period was the largest pillar industry in the United States. Tobacco taxes accounted for more than one-third of the US government's fiscal revenue. Is it an exaggeration? That's it.
With black technology and black additives, he is confident that Hall brand cigarettes will occupy the American market and become the real tobacco king.
The guys had a hearty drink, and the bustle lasted until after 11 o'clock in the evening. They went back to their villa to sleep. Jiang Hao and Jenny said something to go out. Jenny knew that Jiang Hao must have something to do, so she just said be careful.
Jiang Hao took more than a dozen bundles of large firecrackers from the warehouse far away from the villas, carried them on a pack horse, rode on the horse, and rode two riders into the dark night. After riding for more than 20 minutes, Jiang Hao came to the security station on the edge of the town. , there was only one solitary lamp hanging on the eaves of the security station, which looked a bit miserable.
Jiang Hao rode his horse and slowly approached the back of the security station, and a black shadow rushed over, but he didn't make any noise, just wagging his tail at Jiang Hao.
Jiang Hao got off his horse and patted the dog's head. He removed the big firecrackers from the horse and placed them under the ammunition depot at the back of the police station. He put a self-made pull letter on the big firecrackers, covered them with a piece of rags, and left a rope for traction. go outside.
Jiang Hao patted the dog's head again, and ordered: "Tomorrow, when you see Sergeant Kevin coming over, pull out this rope. Remember, you will run far away."
The hound licked Jiang Hao's palm, expressing his understanding.
Jiang Hao got on his horse and returned to his manor.
Gong Dou, what are you trying to do to me, my IQ cracked it, and I made a conspiracy to get back, so forget it.
This is the west, the wild west of the United States, and I am a murderous robber, what kind of palace lock heart jade is I playing.
Just do it.
The next morning, Jiang Hao ordered the guys to go to work on the company. He rode a horse to the town of Los Angeles and went around the security station. No one paid attention to him. Jiang Hao came out and rode to the city hall.
With so many Chinese, that Kevin will definitely come here to complain, and he needs to speak to old man Durant.
But here, Jiang Hao unexpectedly saw Sergeant Kevin, and Sergeant Kevin just gave him a cold look when he saw Jiang Hao coming, and Durant said with a smile: "Hall, just now we were still here Talking about your problem, you brought so many Chinese, it may indeed bring hidden dangers to the law and order in Los Angeles."
Jiang Hao said with a smile: "Mayor, I came here to talk about this matter. I can guarantee that those people will not do evil. My factory has been completed. There is a lot of work for them to do, and the farm needs a lot of work." They don’t have time to wander around, and I have issued a strict order that they are not allowed to leave my farm if there is no important matter.”
Jiang Hao's farm is big enough, and there is no shortage of anything. There is no need for those Chinese to come out. If someone really wants to do bad things, Jiang Hao will not condone and raise rape just because he is Chinese. Compatriots and bad guys are not equated at all.
Sergeant Kevin next to him suddenly interjected, "You promise, how can you guarantee it, if something happens, what responsibility will you have to bear?"
Jiang Hao naturally knew that this guy was irritating him. If he said something wrong, I would be responsible. After their conspiracy was implemented, Jiang Hao must fulfill his promise, and the position of deputy police chief would be lost immediately.
"If my people make mistakes, I will be punished voluntarily, including resigning from the post of deputy sheriff. Do you think this is okay, Sheriff Kevin." Jiang Hao said.
"Hehe, remember your promise," Sergeant Kevin turned to Mayor Durant after speaking, "Mayor, there are still some things in the security station, so I will leave first."
Mayor Durant nodded, Sergeant Kevin picked up his top hat and left. After Sergeant Kevin left, Mayor Durant said to Jiang Hao: "Although I don't discriminate against people of color, you really want to Take responsibility for them and don't bring trouble to Los Angeles."
"Of course the mayor, that's my wish too. I want to make good money." After talking about this topic, Jiang Hao chatted with the mayor about other things.
Sergeant Kevin was very happy. He believed that within two or three days, that annoying Jon Hall could be kicked out of the security station. In fact, Jiang Hao didn't provoke him, but for some reason, he just watched that People are uncomfortable, it has been like that since the first time we met, that guy always looks confident, which makes him very disliked.
Go back to the security station, put the horse at the door, and just walked into his office, the guy named Jimmy came in, "Sheriff, I have already thought about the candidate, there are a few rogues in the town, they can definitely use it , but I’m afraid they have to pay them a fortune.” He said with a flattering smile to Sergeant Kevin.
"How much do you want?" Sergeant Kevin said.
"I reckon $50 would be enough."
Sergeant Kevin took out 50 dollars from the drawer and threw it to him, saying viciously: "Make it better for me, if it goes wrong, I will make them spit out all the bones."
"Yes, yes, it must be done."
Sheriff Kevin and Jimmy were talking in the office. The hound saw the sheriff coming back and slipped out through the back door. No one cared at all. He came to the place where Jiang Hao hid the explosives, picked up the cable with the dog's mouth and ran away. Behind him, the pile of explosives had begun to smoke.
"boom!!!"
Suddenly, an earth-shattering sound resounded throughout the city of Los Angeles. Well, there are only three streets in the current urban area.
People walked out of the house in surprise, not knowing what happened, but they immediately noticed a thick smoke rising from the direction of the security station, and many people ran towards the security station.
Durant and Jiang Hao, who were still chatting, naturally also heard the explosion. Mayor Durant was startled, "Did something happen?"
Jiang Hao immediately stood up, pretending to be anxious and said, "Mayor, I'll go and have a look."
After Jiang Hao finished speaking, he quickly left the city hall and rode to the scene of the incident. At this moment, many Los Angeles citizens had surrounded here. Jiang Hao rode on the horse and saw a tragic scene.
The entire public security station was blown to pieces, with traces of burning fire in the middle. Jiang Hao also saw several scattered corpses around, and he couldn't tell who was who.
That's horrible.
At this time, Mayor Durant also came, and was taken aback when he saw the situation here, "Oh, my God, what is going on here."
Jiang Hao dismounted and walked around, suddenly saw a half body with a sheriff's badge hanging on it, Jiang Hao tried hard to identify it, and finally recognized that it was Sergeant Kevin.
Jiang Hao returned to Mayor Durant and said, "I'm afraid it wasn't an attack. Looking at the situation at the scene, no outsiders came over. I suspect it was an internal explosion."
"Internal explosion, what's going on?" Mayor Durant asked very puzzled.
Jiang Hao spread his hands, "I suspect that the ammunition depot exploded. I told Sergeant Kevin before that the ammunition depot should not be placed in the public security station, and there are a lot of explosives piled inside, which is very dangerous. But Sergeant Kevin did not heed my advice,"
"I just looked at the center of the explosion, which is where the ammunition depot is located. I guess that the ammunition depot exploded for some reason, which led to this tragedy." Jiang Hao spread his hands and expressed his helplessness and sadness. .
Mayor Durant frowned and shook his head, "This is really not what I want to see. I didn't expect such a thing to happen. What about Kevin?"
Jiang Hao pointed to the half body in the distance and said: "I saw his sheriff's badge, I'm afraid Kevin has already gone to heaven."
"Oh, it's so sad, Hall, I now appoint you as the sheriff of Los Angeles, with full powers to deal with the affairs here, and to re-organize the police station, I don't want any law and order problems in Los Angeles, can you?"
"No problem at all, Mr. Mayor." Jiang Hao said firmly.
In the final investigation, a total of 7 people were killed in the explosion at the public security station, and 5 people survived because they did not come because of their shifts, including the young guy Gilmore. deal with their funeral.
One day later, with the burial of these people, the matter was completely over. Jiang Hao rented a private house next to it to temporarily serve as a security station. The new security station is still under construction, and it is estimated that it will take about half a month to move in. The nine brothers, Bill, Pete, Wayne, and Cobain, were all absorbed into the public security station, and the Los Angeles public security station was completely controlled by Jiang Hao.
As for the remaining 5 people, they were originally Kevin's people, but now that the security station has changed, they are not stupid, so naturally they followed Jiang Hao obediently.
Reward for meritorious service, Jiang Hao found a beautiful bitch for that hound, and it seemed very happy.
