Red Dead Redemption, I Build an Umbrella Company

“Thank you so much for coming, Captain Monroe… This made me breathe a sigh of relief. ”

Inside the private dining room, Chen Xu said to Captain Monroe with a gentle smile.

Sometimes a person’s thoughts can be felt from the expression of the other person.

And what a person wants to do, and what is the plan.

There will always be little details.

For example, when Vanderlinder was in the gang, when Ducky wanted to do something.

He always gives a good speech, and sometimes even writes it in advance.

When Arthur wanted to make a decision, he would also sit in place and wait for two seconds.

It looks like it’s choosing, or it’s in a daze.

This is human instinct.

As long as you are still human, this instinctive reaction cannot be avoided.

For Chen Xu, his little habit is to smile.

Gentle smile.

At any time, a smile is the most beneficial and the easiest to hide your movements.

This is also a skill that many big capitalists and politicians must have.

Especially the latter.

Looking at Chen Xu’s smile.

Captain Monroe’s expression became slightly more serious.

“Mr. Matthew is polite, in fact, I would like to meet you too, after all, the second-hand trading company is a great initiative, and he makes the life of the people of St. Denis less stressful.” Captain Monroe gave a somewhat unnatural smile.

He understood that today’s banquet, the other party might want to talk to him about some more secret things.

He looked only about forty years old.

But in fact he was only 31 years old.

After graduating from the Naval Academy, he did not eat dry food, and his long-term training and wind and sun made him a little old.

At the same time, with some soldiers who have just graduated from high school, or have not even graduated and chose to enlist.

Monroe is more sensitive to political value and capital.

The choice of the grand commander of the federation is inseparable from the support of the capitalists.

In the Federation.

Without capital, even a real politician can only lament that the time is not right.

But with the support of capital, even a clown, an actor, a businessman, can stand at the apex of this country.

And the military, perhaps, is not as direct as politicians.

But there are also some inextricable relationships.

Otherwise, most of the officers, what to eat and drink after discharge?

Just by those poor federal pensions every month?

No kidding.

Those pensions are rising at a far less rate than currency inflation.

Not to mention, even if it is compared, the money alone is not enough to support them to live a superior life.

So like politicians, some military dignitaries tend to become honorary advisers to large companies after retirement.

Or write a best-selling book or two to feed yourself and your descendants.

That’s why Monroe came to this feast today.

“I heard that Colonel Favors of Fort Wallace seems to have been targeting the Indians all along?” Chen Xu asked Monroe with a smile.

Hearing Chen Xu’s words, Monroe’s expression became a little serious.

He did not reply immediately, but stared at Chen Xu tightly.

It seems that he wants to see the other person’s mind from behind the seemingly kind smile.

Only after more than ten seconds, he still diverted his gaze, apparently he failed.

As if summing up the sentence, Monroe’s voice was a little slow, and he said to Chen Xu: “There are indeed some similar rumors… But it may also be just some rumors, after all, there is no evidence to prove this. ”

The smile on Chen Xu’s face was brighter than it seemed just now. (Read violent novels, just go to Feilu Fiction Network!) ）

Because Monroe just said something very interesting.

That is, it may also be just some rumors, after all, there is no evidence.

But if you think in another direction, what if there is evidence that Favors is targeting the Indians?

Although he had only made a few simple words, Chen Xu had already figured out Monroe’s thoughts and attitudes, or the thoughts and attitudes of a faction he represented.

“In any case, those Indians are also citizens of the Union, and it is not a very honorable thing to turn the gun on them.” Chen Xu also smiled and expressed his attitude.

As for the fact that Indians are still excluded from mainstream society, even the most basic civic benefits such as social security and voting rights cannot be enjoyed.

But it doesn’t matter, what matters is that they are part of the federal recognition, which is undeniable.

Monroe just nodded, but didn’t speak.

Even if Chen Xu expressed his attitude.

But until now, he has not been able to understand what the other party is looking for himself for today’s meal.

And Chen Xu’s next words also solved the doubts in his heart.

“My partner and I are negotiating a small business with the Indians, but it seems that Colonel Favors is trying to provoke my business partners by some small means.” Chen Xu said towards Monroe.

Hearing this, Captain Monroe’s eyebrows furrowed.

Do business with the Indians?

What is there to trade for those who are so poor that they can only live on federal welfare supplies?

At this moment, Monroe was a little confused, but the next second he thought of something.

“Wapiti? Do you want the land of Wapiti? Monroe was a little surprised.

“Not only us, but also a gentleman named Cornwall, but it seems that he is also planning to join forces with Favors to deal with the Indians, and use some despicable means to snatch the plot of land reserved by Wapiti from the Indians.” Chen Xu said with a smile.

But his words made Monroe’s expression become solemn.

“.. You mean Cornwall? There’s oil under that land! Monroe understood at once.

“It’s obvious.” Chen Xu spread out his hands, and also did not hide it.

I got such a news from Chen Xu’s mouth.

Captain Monroe’s expression became extremely serious.

He sat there thinking for about twenty seconds or so, and then he stood up with an apologetic expression.

“Mr. Matthew, I’m sorry… It suddenly occurred to me that I had some urgent matters to deal with, and perhaps we could continue to talk about the Indians here at this time tomorrow. ”

Listening to Captain Monroe’s words, Chen Xu did not show an expression of displeasure or surprise.

Still with a faint smile, he also stood up and saluted: “Of course.” ”

Looking at the back of Captain Monroe leaving, Chen Xu sat down again, picked up the fruit wine on the table and took a sip, cutting the beef worth $20 and tasting it. (Li Qian’s)

He understood that the other party’s departure was not really to deal with something.

It’s just that this matter is not something that Monroe himself can handle, after all, it involves Cornwall.

He needed to ask some of the people above him.

But what the final result will be, Chen Xu is not worried at all, because the situation is under his control.

For Cornwall, wanting to save his kerosene lamp empire.

Any piece of land that contains oil is extremely important, not to mention that the survey company he secretly commissioned to survey Wapiti had a huge amount of oil, although Chen Xu knew that this survey report was actually wrong.

But for Cornwall, he didn’t know it, so he would only take the land at all costs.

And this land involved the Indians.

People from two different factions of the military, around the Indians, had different opinions.

If Cornwall is on Captain Monroe’s side.

Then they can’t not know the news, and there will be no such dinner table today.
