Rebirth of the great hero of Hong Kong

Chapter 541 189: A black pot

"My friend, please don't worry."

"Look at this report."

Jin Jack told Buckley to be calm, then took out a newspaper, put it in front of him, and beckoned him to read it.

This is a copy of the Washington Post. There is a big red circle on the second page, which should have been drawn by King Jack.

"Xiangjiang Ocean Pollution, Suspected Fuel Pipeline Leakage."

Barkley read it involuntarily, but quickly covered his mouth with his hand and looked at Jin Jack in surprise.

"I received the wind. Experts from the United Nations Environmental Protection Organization took samples of the sea near Tuen Mun with special equipment from Hong Kong University."

"I don't know the specifics, but the people I sent came back and said that the entire sea was covered with oil and dead fish."

"The Governor's Mansion also sent people to investigate. Chief Secretary Richard Richard has already taken the lead and asked the Environmental Protection Agency to quickly come up with an emergency plan."

"Right now all parties are trying to cover up this scandal, but in my opinion it's futile. Tomorrow at the latest, the whole thing will become world news!"

Jin Jack didn't know how the boss did it, and he didn't want to know. If he knew, he might never be able to open his mouth.

"Is the area large?"

Even if Barkley was being stupid, he knew that this was not an emergency, and the timing was too coincidental.

"Five to six nautical miles, there's diesel floating around."

"The loss to the fishery is not big, but you are out of luck. You won't be able to eat delicious crabs this year."

"The boss will take care of it!"

Jack Jin understood what Buckley was worried about, so he comforted him and made a joke by the way to make the atmosphere not so heavy.

"In this case, I will arrange for an interview."

"You know, Bekiski is from Eastern Europe. The uncrowned kings like this kind of person the most. He has a lot of money and a mysterious background. He will definitely make big news."

The leakage of only a few nautical miles is indeed not a troublesome matter. Barkley cheered up and continued to proceed according to the plan.

"Go back and tell Bekiszky that we have settled for him, go to Mexico, and let him do his job well and stop being a gangster!"

Jack Jin glanced at the wristwatch in his hand. He was going to meet with the people from Goldman Sachs in a while, and everyone joined forces to short. The time was almost up, and he should go.

"understood!"

Buckley walked out of the box without looking back.

Richard looked solemnly at the surface of the sea near Tsing Yi. The divers of the garrison had already dived to see where the red oil leaked.

The ghost chiefs under the chief secretary who were almost related to him all gathered on the beach, watching the red oil on the sea, and the large pieces of dead fish and crabs, silent.

Bailey, the supervisor of the customs, and Molière, the coast guard, both had ashen faces and were sweating profusely.

The colleagues also distanced themselves from these two people, not wanting to get involved with these two unlucky bastards.

"You two, you need to give an explanation to the Overseas Colonial Department."

Richard watched the reporters frantically taking pictures not far away, and sighed in his heart, knowing that this matter could not be concealed, he turned his head to look at these two unlucky subordinates.

"Sir, there are many smuggling pipelines near Tuen Mun, as well as the Jardine power plant, which is a high-risk area for leaks."

Baili glanced at Molière, knowing that the warrior couldn't evade him, so he broke his heart and pushed all the blame on You Maozi and Yihe.

As the representative of Jardine, Ximen coughed lightly, signaling Baili to think carefully and not to bite.

As an unofficial member of the Legislative Yuan, he was entitled to appear among this group of colonial officials.

Jardine's preeminent status in Hong Kong is because of the annual Legislative Council elections, three to four members representing Jardine's interests are elected.

These two coughs made Baili dare not continue talking, and lowered his head in fear.

Taking the blame for the pollution incident, he would at most be transferred back to his ancestral home. The money he earned from Xiangjiang would be enough for him to live comfortably for the rest of his life and enjoy beautiful champagne every day.

But if you offend Jardine, whether you can get out of Xiangjiang is a problem.

"Mr. Officer, is it convenient to chat for a few minutes?"

Ximen saw that Richard was already staring at him, but still maintained his demeanor, and asked him to chat with him later.

"What do you think about this matter?"

Simon didn't go around the bush either, he got straight to the point and wanted to get to the bottom of the Chief Secretary first.

"Mr. Ximen, this matter is too big. The first time an environmental organization holds a meeting in Xiangjiang, it's shameful that you, Jardine, have caused so much trouble."

"You and I are not fools. Even if the oil pipes in the power plant didn't leak, we still have something to do with the light company!"

"The red oil business, don't cause trouble, everyone can turn a blind eye and close one eye, now something happened, you Jardine must come up with a solution!"

What do you think?How can I see it?
Tomorrow morning, the whole world will know that red oil leaked in Xiangjiang, polluting the environment.

Countless environmental organizations will issue statements, and then send representatives to continuously observe the governance situation.

The media from various countries will continue to pay attention to this matter. Some things may seem trivial on the surface, but when they are weighed, they are heavier than Mount Tai.

If the whole world knows that Xiangjiang is the distribution center for smuggled red oil in Asia, I don't know how it will be publicized.

Xiangjiang has always advertised itself as the safest tourist city in Asia. If it is said to be a center for smugglers and affect its international reputation, no one can bear the responsibility.

But these are all overt considerations, and there are also considerations in the dark. The parliament has always wanted to end the colony's preferential oil policy. If it digs deeper, it will definitely make a big fuss.

Keeping the Xiangjiang fuel preferential policy is the top priority for Richard and MacLehose now.

Ximen is not an idiot. Although Jardine did not participate in the red oil smuggling business, he is well aware of it.

The red oil business must be a combination of inside and outside, without inside ghosts, it will never be possible.

But the electric lamp company is an enterprise subsidized by Hong Kong's policy. The more red oil it burns, the more subsidies it will get at the end of the year, so naturally it doesn't take it to heart.

Besides, Jardine is a family business, and the executives are all relatives, so we should give them a little pocket money as a welfare.

But stealing oil to pollute a large area of ​​sea water is too much, and it is indeed necessary to give an explanation to public opinion and fishermen.

"We won't make mistakes, the only ones who make mistakes are these smugglers!"

After pondering for a moment, Ximen said to Richard very seriously.

Richard looked at Ximen coldly, without saying a word. Although the situation is not known to everyone, it will soon be overwhelmed.

Yihe's idea is not wrong, but it is impossible for these miser to want people to pass by the flowers without touching their bodies.

"Sir, the divers are out, and the survey ship from the Environmental Protection Agency is back!"

The staff of the Chief Secretary ran over, stopped five steps ahead of Richard and Ximen, and reported loudly.
