24. Don't go bankrupt and be a good man
Don't think that foreigners don't have a strategy to do things.
Grab the handle to remove the wings of its minions, and then take the head of the main general, the routine foreigners also understand.
The first person Jones and others to encircle at the city convention was L. Davis of the Hopkins faction's San Francisco Civil Affairs Department.
The 39-year-old descendant of illegal Mexican immigrants gained the position with the support of Hopkins after three generations of efforts to become a councillor for his community.
But this guy's hands and feet have never been clean.
It was not alone that he discovered that his home was full of charity items emblazoned with the logo of New Rome.
Neighbors could see that his wife's bed sheets had the logo of New Rome on them.
In addition, in addition to receiving a salary from the San Francisco Civil Affairs Department, he actually received a management fee from his community's volunteer committee.
And his wife, who doesn't give birth, also has a good salary.
After Jones's men enumerated the evidence, Davis said that he had been wronged and that the charity items that were emblematic of New Rome were defective.
This was so powerful that the Jones faction's congressmen immediately seized on this sentence to blame the New Rome side.
Because they actually mixed the defective products into charity supplies for disaster relief.
It's a moral issue.
Hopkins knew it was over when he heard Davis say it.
Sure enough, when the council called New Rome on the spot, Tom was furious, and he ordered his lawyers to go to the council immediately to obtain a testimony, and at the same time ordered the New Rome security group to go to Davis's home immediately.
The White Russians surrounded Davis's home.
A large number of journalists arrived at the same time as the head of the New Rome Civil Charity arrived at the scene and immediately reported to the police on the grounds that the stolen goods had been found.
When Davis's wife tried to stop her, the White Russian women's army rushed up and grabbed her by the hair and dragged her out of the house, and the men took the opportunity to ask the police to search the house with their cameras.
As a result, a large number of charity supplies, from kettles, pots and pans, cutlery, and furniture, were carried out and placed on the side of the road.
The eyes of the masses are bright.
If they want to say that these items are defective, they will not agree, because the quality of the supplies in their homes may not be as good as these things.
The action in New Rome was incredibly fast.
It took them only 20 minutes to collect evidence, and some small pieces of evidence were sent to the council.
At this time, Tom's lawyer was questioning Davis in righteous words, and warned him that if he did not publish an apology, New Rome would prosecute him...
Davis's fall was a matter of course, but everyone knew that New Rome was not targeting him but his faction.
So while obtaining evidence against Davis, New Rome had arranged for people to spy on other members of the faction.
New Rome had no law enforcement powers.
However, the internal inspectorate of New Rome has the power to supervise and review the movement of charitable goods.
So while their actions were aggressive, Hopkins had nothing to say.
Anyway, he can't protect himself now.
Three days later, Hopkins' assistant was dismissed.
Three days later, Hopkins asked to see Han Huaiyi in the evening, and when the call came to Tom, Tom asked, "Do you have any projects that you want Your Excellency Charlie to support?" ”
"Mr. Tom, I just want to see Mr. Charlie."
"I'm sorry, the hypocrites don't have the right to meet him, and when your ticket dream comes at the expense of San Francisco's sound planning, you've lost the friendship of New Rome." After Tom put down the phone sharply, Hopkins howled.
The goods were circling around the house: "Are you going to force me to death?" ”
yes, it's to clean him up, and what can he do?
The Masonry Guild organization explicitly issued an internal warning to him, demanding that he better resign himself or face a combined attack by the Masons' Union, the ruling factions of New Rome and San Francisco, and other teams.
The next day, Hopkins took the blame and resigned.
As for the reason for his resignation, Han Huaiyi didn't bother to look at it, but Han Huaiyi did one thing.
He convened the first conclave meeting of the San Francisco area stonemasons' union.
The date had already been set, on the night of Hopkins' resignation, at his temporary office in New Rome.
A large number of White Russians defended the place, and the leading figures in San Francisco and even some people in California arrived on time.
Han Huaiyi sat on the side as the supervisor, and the chairman was a person who outsiders could not imagine in any case, his name was John. Rockefeller.
In fact, the real president is the former mayor of San Francisco, Duo Ruowan.
But his reputation and strength cannot be compared with these two at all, for example, although he is a formal engineer, his level is only level 12.
And Rockefeller is a top member of the 33rd level and the vice president of the association.
Han Huaiyi is a member of the 29th class and the vice president of the New York Stonemasons Union. (Contributed points by New Rome to the United States)
For these two ancestors, he can only wisely let the virtuous.
And Rockefeller is only in name, the old man is not to support Charlie, he is too lazy to take this stall.
So the real person in charge of the local area is Han Huaiyi.
It's just that he never used this power.
But this time it was not, and Han Huaiyi felt that this symptom must be extinguished, and he must unify the political attitude along the San Francisco coast.
In fact, many people are waiting for this meeting, because only after the meeting can they be qualified to say that we and Charlie are "union brothers".
Han Huaiyi didn't talk nonsense.
He got straight to the point: "I basically know all of you, and even if you don't know me, you should know me." First of all, as landowners in San Francisco, we would like to welcome Mr. Howard, a member of the California Congress, and others. ”
"It's an honor to be called by the district commissioner."
Howard, who speaks, is a state legislator in California and a profiteer on farms.
After the politeness, Han Huaiyi said: "You already know about the handling of Hopkins by our local faction, and the reason why I convened this meeting is to remind you of Hopkins' thoughts. ”
"Hopkins, in order to gain later power, increased his vote base, and demanded that San Francisco open its acceptance of minorities in the name of loving minorities, and he proposed to recruit Mexicans and blacks to work, which has increased.
As he spoke, Tom, as the secretary of the congregation, sent a record of Hopkins' words and deeds to the congregation one by one.
"This is a deeply irresponsible and selfish performance."
"Everybody is smart and understands that if you do that, San Francisco and the whole of California will be doomed."
"Okay, I have a point of view that charity must first ensure its own safety, who agrees with this sentence?"
After a few moments, everyone in the congregation raised their arms.
Han Huaiyi's words are very realistic, everyone can be a good person, but you can't go bankrupt to be a good person, in that case you will only ruin yourself.
