"What are you a Mexican looking for me for?" Major Harding leaned on the high chair, put his legs on the desk, and sneered at Rubin who came to visit him, the ridicule and contempt in his words were ready to come out.
Usually, when Lu Bin came out to handle errands, all kinds of apprehension and caution were inevitable. Because the uncle of the 'Enclave' controls all the resources in the city, if he accidentally offends him, he will be in big trouble. It's just that today when he found the manager of the 'Enclave' stationed in Progreso Port, his expression was a little more natural.
"Mr. Harding, Your Excellency the Governor invites you tomorrow night..." Rubin tried his best to make his smile reflect neither arrogance nor condescension, but the power of the 'Enclave' personnel in recent months still made him subconscious bent over.
Even with such respect, Major Harding, who is in charge of port management, interrupted immediately: "I have received the invitation from you. But sorry, I am not free."
He said 'sorry' in his mouth, but there was no sign of 'sorry' on Harding's face. Instead, he teased and teased: "Tell your Excellency the governor, stay in his governor's mansion honestly, don't think about what you shouldn't have. We all know what he wants to do, but he won't succeed of.
We, the Enclave, have always been generous, and we will save him a bit of decency. But..., his offense to Monsieur Lula has aroused our resentment and annoyance. I know that he persuaded the headquarters to send an inspection team to Merida to investigate, but I want to say that his little cleverness is too ridiculous.
Although His Excellency Lula's management method is a bit rough, I still agree with his ability. So I think His Excellency Alfonso had better stop making trouble, otherwise... changing the governor is not a big deal. Anyway, I can catch any Mexican under my hands better than him. dont you agree? Hahaha……. "
When Lieutenant Colonel Harding spoke, he didn't even look at Rubin, who bowed and bowed his head. He was manicuring his nails with a pair of nail clippers in his hand. After finishing speaking, he waved his hand casually, indicating that his attitude was like this, and finally said to Rubin lightly, "Tell me what I said to your governor, and you can go away."
Faced with this outrageous and unreasonable attitude, Rubin couldn't help feeling angry. In the past, he could only swallow his breath and leave silently, because he was just a Mexican in a disadvantaged position. He relied on the "Enclave" for food and drink, and he couldn't harden his waist at all. But things are different now,….
"Mr. Harding, I actually brought you some gifts on behalf of our Governor. Our Governor said that whether you come to the ball tomorrow or not, these gifts are his friendly attitude to you." Lubin Too lazy to be too polite, he decided to go directly to the big killer.
"Gift? Hahaha..., what gift can a guy who is trapped in the Governor's Mansion and can only be a puppet give me? Do you want to give me his woman?
Boy, you have to know that I am the port manager of Progreso, and the transportation of materials in the entire Yucatan region needs to pass through me. I don't think there's anything your governor can give me. In terms of material abundance, I am the king here. "
Major Harding's position is very important, and his port management rights are an excellent position to make money. He does not control the life and death of the residents of the entire Yucatan region like Lula does, but he controls the fate of everyone in the entire region from another perspective.
Hearing that Rubin was going to give a gift to Governor Alfonso, His Excellency the Major laughed happily and hilariously, the sound resounded throughout the office, and even the guards behind him looked at Rubin with disdain. The funny sound didn't last long, and suddenly there were a few swallowing sounds from the Adam's apple, which were also made by the guards.
This sound is like a greedy worm has found something good that he has been longing for for a long time, arousing the owner's strong demand and possessive desire. The sound was so loud that even Major Harding's laughter could not be concealed, and it was clearly audible.
"Is the gift special? What is it?" Harding looked back at the guards behind him strangely.
Look at Rubin in front of him bowing his knees. He leaned his feet on the chair, even if he looked up, he couldn't see the area blocked by the desk. And just below that area, Rubin seemed to be pulling something out of a box.
The sound of jingling bells sounded like a slight collision of glass bottles, and Harding immediately recalled a familiar scene in his mind-the action of the bartender in the bar pouring wine from the bottle. This scene was common in the past, but it is almost extinct now. . At least not in Mexico.
Westerners have a strong bar culture, and going to a bar for a drink in their free time is a social activity for men, women and children.
Alcohol is a necessity of life for Westerners. But it is difficult for wasteland to even have a full stomach, drinking alcohol is already an extremely extravagant behavior for many people. The point is that even if you have status and power, it is difficult to get wine.
In the past few months, the "Enclave" desperately searched for life resources in Mexico, and all kinds of supplies were transported to the mainland of the United States. In the early days, Major Harding could still see supplies such as rum from the transport list, but now the wine has long since disappeared.
However, the climate in the nuclear winter is cold, and the demand for "drinking a glass" is even stronger for Westerners. It is the best way to eliminate worries, reduce stress, and even mediate the body and mind-but the problem is that there is no wine!
Harding's Adam's apple twitched. In just a second or two, many thoughts repeatedly appeared in his mind-is it really wine? impossible? Even if there is wine, it is impossible to appear in the hands of a waste like Alfonso. Maybe it's canned food or something, but I'm not short on canned food, in fact I'm getting tired of it. It can't be wine, absolutely impossible!
but…….
Clang, clang..., two big wine bottles were placed on the desk following Lubin's movements. He expressed his full temper through this action, which was mixed with displeasure, anger, pride and mockery. He just waited to see the self-proclaimed dignified Major Harding prostrate before a bottle of wine.
The whiskey that Zhou Qingfeng brought did not disappoint Lu Bin, it was powerful enough.
The moment the guess was revealed, the guesses and doubts in Major Harding's heart quickly disappeared. His original pride disappeared, and the thought of 'drinking a glass' popped up like a thunderbolt, and his strong alcohol addiction urged him to take a sip quickly.
For a group of habitual drinkers, months of abstinence can be hell. Major Harding almost felt that he had been forced to quit drinking, and his need for alcohol had gradually diminished. But now he knows that it's not fading, but waiting for a ferocious eruption after accumulating to a certain level.
"'Supreme' brand whiskey, I have never heard of this brand." Major Harding was a little disregarding his manners. He jumped up from his chair and grabbed a bottle of wine. After glancing at the bottle, he said nothing. Said to use the corkscrew to open the bottle cap, Gudong Gudong took a big gulp into his mouth.
what……!
After finishing the drink, Harding hiccupped happily and stared at the bottle with incredible eyes, as if he was still sure that what he was drinking was really whiskey. Then he raised his head and laughed three times, and shouted cheeringly: "This wine is so good, I feel that my soul is going to go to heaven, God is with me." (To be continued.)
