Chapter 447 The Millionaire

When Rock knew that this matter was written by Xia Jiu and the others, Rock's mood was still very complicated.

For a long time, Rock hoped that the Chinese in Johannesburg would have the ability to make decisions on their own. Now Buck and Anton have been able to take charge of their own. Of course, Xia Jiu and the others are making progress, but this direction seems to be going astray, and Rock doesn't know this. Things are good and bad.

But one thing is certain, a team cannot be all Wei Guangzheng, those dirty jobs must be done by someone, no matter what, Xia Jiu and the others have a good starting point, this must be confirmed.

"In the future, if this kind of thing happens again, go to Zach and tell me. If there is any accident, I will give you a full account." Rock still encouraged, after all, the result now is not bad.

Xia Jiu and the others were quite nervous at first, and if they didn't tell Roque, they didn't want to cause trouble for Roque. Even if something happened, Roque would not be implicated.

Xia Jiu is very happy now that she is encouraged by Rock. They all have special identities. They used to be in the Cape Town Police Station. Similar to their situation, they should have retired from active duty after being disabled and received a meager salary. Hard times.

Rock's approach was obviously more humane, and he didn't abandon Xia Jiu and the others because of this, but entrusted Xia Jiu and the others with important responsibilities.

Throughout Johannesburg, Xia Jiu and his group can be said to be the most loyal to Rock, and they are also willing to work for Rock in the dark.

"Don't worry, my lord, if this kind of thing happens again in the future, we will definitely discuss it with the butler Zach." Xia Jiu didn't resist Zach. Zach was with Rock all day long, and he could be regarded as Rock's closest person. .

After Harry Spencer and Arnold turned against each other, he directly withdrew the inspectors at the train station and traffic arteries, turned a blind eye to the case of Bruce Hughes, and didn't even bother to cover it up.

Arnold was going crazy with anger, but there was nothing he could do about Harry Spencer. Philip wanted to drive Arnold back to the mainland. Arnold didn't even dare to go to the mayor's mansion. Arnold's wife, Lena, was very sensible and took the child back to the mainland , leaving Arnold alone in Johannesburg.

Arnold therefore directly expressed dissatisfaction with the work of the police department in Parliament, and asked Harry Spencer to be questioned in Parliament in the case of Bruce Hughes.

While Rock was secretly investigating Bruce Hughes, of course he would not let go of monitoring Arnold.

In this respect, Arnold is much more than Bruce Hughes, and Bruce Hughes is still cautious. After Arnold became a member of parliament, he simply intensified. Not only did he have an ambiguous relationship with his secretary, but he also had an affair with another country in the parliament Party MP Adam Stephen conspired to try to buy Priestley Goldfields.

The Priestley Gold Mine is one of the members of the Johannesburg Mining Union. The scale of this gold mine is not too large, and the output is not too high. Therefore, local nobles and local snakes like Stoudemire look down on it. It is a little independent of Johannesburg. gold mine.

Although the scale is small and the output is not high, the profits of the Priestley Gold Mine are quite large.

In the case of Johannesburg, gold mines with an ore grade of about [-] grams are already on the verge of being abandoned, and the average grade of the Priestley Gold Mine is also above [-] grams, which is an out-and-out bonanza. Priestley doesn't want to attract attention, so Priestley Gold Mine is not favored.

"Arnold's eating is a bit ugly. The annual profit of the Priestley Gold Mine is more than 50 pounds. He actually wants to buy the Priestley Gold Mine for only [-] pounds. I'm afraid he is crazy about money. Already, Cody has already spoken out, if Arnold doesn’t stop, Cody will die, please remind Arnold if you have a chance, don’t underestimate the determination of a millionaire.” Stoudemire is the chairman of the Mining Union, and Cody received After receiving the quotation, he sought help from the Mining Alliance as soon as possible, so Stoudemire knew it in time.

On the surface, the gold mines in Johannesburg are not very profitable. In fact, it is hard to say. Rock knows that most of the gold is hidden in the basement, and Cody Priestley must know it too.

Unlike Rock, Cody Priestley's industries are all in Europe, and it is said that they also have industries in the United States, so no one can tell. How much money these mine owners in Johannesburg can make every year, only they themselves know.

Or, only Rand Bank knows, because most mine owners are now more and more accustomed to storing gold in Rand Bank.

So don't underestimate Ada's influence in Johannesburg. If you count carefully, Rock's influence on Johannesburg may not be as good as Ada.

Rock's main influence is still on the farm, or among the Chinese. Ada's influence in Johannesburg has surpassed racial groups. The Chinese have to deal with the Rand Bank, and the whites have to deal with the Rand Bank. Even the Japanese government They all have to borrow money from the Rand Bank. In Johannesburg, the governor of Ade is comparable to Ada in influence.

"Hehe, this person is already crazy, I don't even want to hear his name." Rock has no affection for Arnold, if it is not because of Phyllis, Rock will not tolerate it.

"Then what should we do? Let him do whatever he wants. I am the chairman of the Mining Union." Stoudemire is also in a dilemma. If Stoudemire shows no mercy to Arnold, it will definitely affect the honor of the Rock and Matilda families.

Don’t look at the monk’s face and look at the Buddha’s face. If Stoudemire makes Arnold feel ashamed, those who don’t know the truth will not care how stupid Arnold is. They will only think that Rock, Philip, Henry, and Owen together can’t help Arnold. Disgrace along with it.

That's why Arnold is confident.

"Don't ask me, I don't know. Philip couldn't send him back to his native land even if he wanted to, and I can't help it." Rock didn't know what to do. It was the first time in his two lifetimes that he encountered such a rascal. Because Phyllis was inconvenient to operate, to be honest, Roque really hoped that the killers sent by Constantine would kill Arnold together. In that case, Roque could avenge Arnold with thunderous force.

One hundred!

Stoudemire doesn't talk nonsense, and he can understand Rock's embarrassment. In this case, someone needs to take the initiative to stand up and let Arnold understand some truths.

The retribution came very quickly. Before Christmas, Adam Stephen was suddenly dismissed from his post and no longer served as the general manager of the gold mine. He was also replaced by the new general manager of the gold mine in the mining industry alliance. He still has the status of a member of the parliament. But without the position of general manager and the status of the mining union, it is hard to say how long he can be a member of the parliament.

Rock knew that Adam Stephen's power came from a certain nobleman in the UK. Thinking of Harry Spencer's background, Rock had to lament the impermanence of the world.

"My lord, do you want to expose our contract with Adam Stephen? This guy will definitely be killed without a place to bury him." Xia Jiu couldn't understand his hatred, this was the rhythm of driving Adam Stephen to death.

"Don't, if you expose this kind of thing, who would dare to do business with the umbrella in the future?" Rock didn't want to lose his character, so he couldn't do things like digging his own grave.

"It's simple, let Sam fire an employee casually, and then let that employee disclose the news by himself, and then we will arrange people to go far away, and no one will find them." Xia Jiu said it nicely, according to this guy's personality, It is estimated that they will kill people in the end, and they will just talk casually about flying away.

Rock couldn't help but laugh. After Xia Jiu was blackened, he went further and further down the road of blackening, and he did things by unscrupulous means.

However, if you think about it carefully, it seems to be a bit operable——

Rock shook his head and drove this thought out of his mind. Some things are hard to control after they start. Once you get used to using illegal means to deal with problems, it will be extremely difficult to return to the normal way.

"No, Arnold fell in love with Adam Stephen, and he will also do it for the power in Adam Stephen's hands. Now if we deal with Adam Stephen, it is tantamount to helping Arnold. Keeping Adam Stephen will make Arnold feel even more uncomfortable." Rock Don't worry, Adam Stephen is also a person who is very passionate about power, otherwise he would not get close to Arnold. Now the MP is the only power left by Adam Stephen, so let Arnold struggle.

Arnold is indeed very entangled. As a member of the Mining Union, Adam Stephen has a great status in Johannesburg. It can be said that the Mining Union is the top of the Johannesburg pyramid and actually determines everything in Johannesburg, even the city government. Any decision requires the cooperation of the Mining Alliance.

To put it bluntly, if the mining union is dissatisfied with the decision of the city government, the city government can be killed if it has no money. The British system of "private property is sacred and inviolable" determines the status of the mining union. , Stoudemire is actually the uncrowned king of Johannesburg.

After losing his position in the Mining Union, Adam Stephen is dispensable to Arnold, and the seats of members of parliament are still very important. Arnold now hopes that Adam Stephen will take the initiative to leave the Socialist Party, so that Arnold can use parliamentary seats to win over other people.

Of course, Adam Stephen also knew that his status was declining sharply, so he took the Priestley Gold Mine as an opportunity for him to rise again. On Christmas Day, Adam Stephen and Arnold went to the Priestley Gold Mine together again , coercing and luring Cody Priestley, hoping to buy the Priestley gold mine.

"You two, I'm afraid you are thinking too much, don't force me, otherwise I would rather sell the gold mine to Lord Nyasaland, or Mr. Cecil Rhodes Jr. than sell the gold mine to you .” Cody Priestley flatly refused, no matter whether it was Arnold and Adam Stephen who were soft or hard, Cody Priestley was not afraid.

The security work of the Priestley Gold Mine is also in charge of the umbrella company. When Cody Priestley saw Arnold and Adam Stephen, there were two burly men standing behind him.

Seriously, a millionaire is not so easy to mess with.
