Late at night on September 12, 1905.

Han Huaiyi and Ford, the two bigwigs, sat side by side on the steps in front of their residence in District 51, Nevada.

Pressed under the cigarette case in his hand was the message James had sent from the White House, and his call back that had been elicited by the message.

"Silence is acquiescence."

Han Huaiyi let out a long sigh: "Henry, I've been waiting for an opportunity, I didn't hesitate to give up the reputation that I was originally going to prepare for Jason to James, and I also sent Morgan the petrodollar plan in advance, and finally got this opportunity to visually show the power of air strikes to the highest level in a very fast time." ”

Then he said, "It's worth it!" ”

"Thomas probably can't imagine that you've never seen him as an opponent. And you're right to let Morgan take the lead of that plan. ”

"Yes, good things don't always be taken by one person, just hold on to the PTR and take the arms purchase."

"The Pinkertons will attack in the near future, but what about San Francisco?" Ford asked about Matthews, who had long been under surveillance.

Han Huaiyi said confidently: "If you dare to move, you will destroy him." ”

San Francisco is the city with the largest number of Chinese, and because of Han Huaiyi's relationship, they have combined with the upper echelons.

So once some outsiders come over there, they can't escape Han Huaiyi's ears and eyes at all.

To Han Huaiyi's surprise, it was at this time that Matthews met with Johnson of the San Francisco Railroad Agency.

He walked out of the hotel where he was staying under the pretext of buying cigarettes.

Then he went to the car parked on the side of the street and made a request to the person who was watching him.

When Johansen came over confused, Matthews asked him to take control of the two men next door.

Then he told Jarrett what he had arranged.

Then he said, "Tell Mr. Charlie that not all the people of Pinkerton are his enemies, and that I am willing to meet his needs." ”

"For example?" Johansen guessed his intentions and asked him quietly.

"Accuse Thomas Edison, whose records of his dealings with the private police at Pinkerton are in my possession."

"Why did you do that?"

"For the real Pinkerton private police to survive."

"Oh?"

"It's a tough decision, but I can't help it." Matthews then handed a telegram to Johansen: "My friend just told me that the White House passed James' support plan for the PTR. ”

The telegram read: Teddy supports Z's investigation of the PTR, T Valley is the aircraft research and development base, and although the 3rd Division cannot participate, the other side has already prepared and withdrawn.

Johansen was confused and asked, "Who is Teddy?" Who is Z and who is the friend who sent the telegram to you? ”

"Teddy is the president's nickname and Z is James. And I am close friends with the son of Robert, the head of the naval side of the Military Council. ”

Hearing this, Johansen cautiously asked a question: "Doesn't Jarett have a channel like you?" ”

"He doesn't have a relationship with me, and Thomas Edison's contact in the military is also Robert, but for reasons that everyone understands, he has been a little estranged recently. So my friend contacted me first. ”

"Are you sure?" Johansen wasn't convinced.

As a result, Matthews took out the telegram reply again, and told him: "Mr. Johansen, I see a lot of things in this telegram, Charlie is not only tied to the military, but also has the support of the president, and the Pinkertons are going to be in big trouble!" So I want to apologize to him through you and hope that things end with Jarret. ”

"You, this is to betray your brother?" Johansen was dumbfounded.

The members of the Victor family could not have imagined that such a thing could happen.

Matthews was very calm: "If you let this reckless leader Pinkerton again, Pinkerton will sink forever, so I communicated with Robert Jr." ”

He took out the palindrome of the telegram, which clearly recorded his communication with Robert.

Matthews asked Thomas to inform him of a one-sided message from Jarrett that the Third Division would no longer be involved in the dispute between Pinkerton and New Rome, nothing more.

In response, Matthews said, "This is my gift to Charlie. Mr. Johansen, I hope to see him soon. ”

The contents of the telegram not only prove that the news came to him first, but also logically believe that his later words are also credible.

Because this telegram is tantamount to conniving with Jarrett to continue his actions, but then he will fall into the trap of New Rome, and Thomas Edison will also suffer retribution.

And Johansen understood the guy's intentions thoroughly.

Matthews wanted to use the hands of New Rome to clean up the family power that he couldn't grasp.

Colluding with outsiders to target the family, even at the expense of shedding thousands of miles, what kind of thing is this? Johansen immediately felt contempt for him, and he immediately asked him: "What about the dozens of people you led?" ”

"It's all under your watch, isn't it?"

"That's right, except for the two next door, everyone else is based in the town of Jolly, northeast of San Francisco."

"Yes, they are waiting for my arrangement."

"What are you going to do?"

"It's up to your people to arrest them, there's always an excuse, and then it's up to me to bail them out."

"In other words, it's all up to you."

"Yes, I can't convince these brainless people to do so as a last resort. Well, Mr. Johansen, I've said enough, I'm sure this will get Mr. Charlie's attention, so please let him know quickly. Matthews urged.

Because he knows that the sooner he communicates with Charlie, the higher his value will be.

Although Johansen looked down on him, he could only do so, and he immediately informed the people below to trap those Pinkertons, and at the same time sent a telegram to inform Han Huaiyi of the news.

Matthews, who had done this, collapsed on the couch.

He's had enough of Jarrett and his philosophy of running the business, and he's had had enough of it since the Pittsburgh crackdown.

But those members didn't sell his account, and he didn't have any chances in the past.

But now it's different.

Focusing on word-of-mouth and networking, he has been rewarded today.

After Robert dismissed the meeting, he chewed on the tacit understanding between James and Roosevelt, and after he saw the report of Army Lieutenant Selder, he clearly felt the power of the plane in battle.

Robert wasn't a straw bag, and he was able to sit in that position because he was well versed in military affairs and politics.

Although he didn't know what James showed the president in the end, he still thought that the Pinkertons should have little chance of winning this dispute.

So he went home and explained to his son.

That's how Matthews got this telegram full of warnings.

And Matthews made a decision based on this telegram that surprised everyone.

But at the same time, he silently swore in his heart that as long as there was a future, he would count his sins on Charlie's head!
