This is a devil!
"I, I understand, I will make a statent to the public, I will take all the responsibility!"
Vice Admiral Spo and Donnie both smiled, soone always has to take the fall for this matter, and Major Bernard, this pure soldier, seed to be the most suitable.
Major Bernard complied with Donnie and General Spo’s request, took responsibility through the newspapers, and was then taken away by the FBI.
In the jail cell at FBI headquarters, Major Bernard sat in the interrogation room, at this ti he had changed into casual clothes.
"I want to see Donnie Block!"
Since entering here, Major Bernard only said one sentence, he wanted to see Donnie.
Donnie ca to the FBI headquarters, entered the interrogation room, and saw the haggard-looking Bernard.
"I heard you wanted to see !"
"I don’t understand!" Bernard said, fixating on Donnie Block. He couldn’t fathom why he had wound up in this situation, especially caused by the man right in front of him.
"I don’t understand why General Spo gave up on , clearly the plan we discussed before was the one that most maximized his interests, why did he ultimately choose to continue working with you? I don’t understand how much influence you have in the Federation, the Florida-class battleship is indeed approaching retirent age, but certainly not now, it could still serve for at least two more years. I don’t understand why, at this mont, all the newspapers across the United States stand on your side, do you really have such imnse power?"
Donnie replied with a smile: "You really have so many questions!"
"Now I have nothing, can Mr. Block not even satisfy this small request of mine?"
Donnie chuckled and said: "First, I guess you definitely think of yourself as General Spo’s trusted lieutenant, right?"
"That’s right!"
"From the mont you had this thought, you actually already lost. General Spo is no longer simply a soldier; he is also a politician. Financial interests are indeed very important to him, but not the most important; political prospects are the most crucial.
Hmm, coincidentally, although my influence is not decisive for General Spo’s political prospects, it can still play a role.
You guys’ plan indeed was good, but that is premised on you being able to succeed. Now that your plan is dood to fail, of course, General Spo will abandon you, after all, your future is over. You must understand that trusted veins can be cultivated, not irreplaceable!"
"Ha!" Bernard displayed a bitter smile, if it were another scenario where Donnie Block said this to him, he might definitely not believe Donnie Block’s words, but now... Donnie Block’s words had co true!
"As for the second question, the Florida-class battleship indeed hasn’t reached the retirent age, but it doesn’t matter, I just ntioned, you don’t understand politicians; a captain of the Florida-class battleship that has been defad by the dia naturally sullies the reputation of the Florida-class battleship as well. Under such circumstances, if a big shot cos forward willing to buy the Florida-class battleship, guess what those politicians and naval brass would think?
Of course, they’d make a move as early as possible, after all, upon retirent, the Navy rely receives a pile of scrap tal; but if it’s sold, the Navy can not only enhance its image but also earn a substantial amount of money, isn’t that a great thing?"
"A big shot?" Bernard looked bitterly at Donnie: "So, you’re the one buying the Florida-class battleship?"
Donnie displayed a brilliant smile, saying: "Correct answer."
"Haha..." Bernard let out a piercing laugh, causing the FBI personnel guarding Donnie to imdiately tense up, but fortunately Bernard didn’t overreact.
He had been thinking about swallowing Donnie Block’s bootlegging business, but in just a few days, he had beco a prisoner, and even his Florida-class battleship had beco Donnie Block’s.
This really is ironic!
Donnie quietly sat there waiting for Bernard to finish laughing before continuing to speak.
"As for the third question you asked, I can only say you’re truly foolish, is the Bootlegging Empire just mine? No, not only is it not just mine, it’s not even the Republican Party’s; it belongs to a massive interest group, in which there are no divisions between the Democratic Party and the Republican Party.
Hmm, you guys actually thought about taking a bite out of the Bootlegging Empire’s business, besides stupidity, I can’t think of any other words to describe you!"
"Indeed foolish!" At this ti Bernard was also aware of everything, to hell with trusted veins, he was rely a pawn pushed out by Spo; naturally, taking over the bootlegging business would be good, but if he couldn’t take over, he could be discarded at any ti.
"I want to say one thing, these people are really dirty!"
After listening, Donnie laughed heartily, extrely joyous, "Do you think this world is clean then?"
Bernard shouted: "Don’t be too happy, prohibition is bound to vanish in the United States sooner or later!"
Donnie showed a helpless expression; seeing this expression, Bernard assud he had hit Donnie’s sore spot, displaying a satisfied expression.
Donnie looked at Bernard and said: "I thought you’d gotten smarter, but how are you still so foolish; prohibition indeed can disappear, but then what? Do you think everyone will be able to brew alcohol? No, at that point, breweries will be governnt-regulated industries, and only a few will get the brewing licenses. Then whose hands do you think these licenses will fall into?"
Bernard: "..."
"Alright, I’ve satisfied your curiosity, now you need to answer my question!" Donnie asked.
