British 1986
Chapter 503 Burning Swansea
Although everything in the celebration went according to procedure, with Gustav speaking and the guests chatting and congratulating each other, and every step of the process was completed, until the end, Allen still felt that it was almost boring.
He felt that the atmosphere of the entire celebration was strange. Ever since he listened to Queen Margaret's words and looked at Gustav, he always felt that this old guy had a stubborn temper and was silently resisting.
Why.
Faced with the current situation, Allen uses himself to save others. If it were him, he probably wouldn't be where Gustav is now.
But everyone has their own way of dealing with things. We haven't reached the worst situation yet. Let's talk about it later. If it comes to the end.
Maybe we can remotely support Gustav?
The time difference in Sweden is one hour ahead of the UK.
Allen was invited to attend a private dinner at Queen Margaret's house in the evening. When he returned to the hotel, it was already past eleven o'clock.
In Wales in the distance, it was only around ten o'clock in the evening.
During this time, the nightlife in Swansea has started early.
Unlike Llanelli next door, which lacks nightlife, Swansea is relatively better at night. After all, the management is relatively loose. Rumors have spread around the city recently, and small things happen from time to time. Even ordinary people are aware of it. There was a tense atmosphere, and in the evening it was time to meet up with a few friends, go out for a glass of wine and brag, share the gossip they had heard, and discuss which big shot had been in trouble recently.
It is adjacent to the development zone, an area specifically designated by Swansea for foreign investors to build factories. The nightlife here is the richest.
The current economic situation is sluggish, but these foreigners, or employees of foreign companies, generally have higher wages than locals and have stronger spending power. There are also many karaoke bars and bars around here, surrounding the entire development zone, which can be regarded as nightlife. One of the richest areas, bustling until late every night.
Mixed in a warehouse at the end of the bar street, there was nothing in the warehouse at this time, but dozens of people stood darkly.
Old Karl sat in front of a table with a map of the development zone on it. He held a magnifying glass in his hand and frowned at the areas drawn on the map.
"Sir, this was researched by Bentley. The production lines we need most are drawn with red pens, and other areas are also marked with different colors according to priority."
Xiao Shitou stood nearby and pointed at the map to explain to Old Karl.
"In other words, these other colored areas don't matter, but the red area is the focus?"
"No Sir, if you can keep it, it's best to keep these green areas as much as possible."
Xiao Shitou looked at Old Karl and explained specifically.
"I can't stay! If so many areas are untouched, where else can I move?"
Old Karl rolled his eyes at the small stone and continued to look at the map.
This is a detailed map of the equipment distribution in various factories in the development zone.
There are dozens of factories of large international companies, the most valuable of which is Ford's factory. They will produce some corresponding auto parts to provide accessories to their European regional assembly plants.
As for auto parts factories, most of them can be produced by simply modifying the molds.
Llanelli, which happens to be not far from Swansea, is Bentley's production base. The two parties are so close. Although there is no direct competition, there are still many production lines in the Ford factory that Bentley can use.
Allen wanted Swansea, but not just in name. He didn't care about the name at all, but he cared about it very much.
What he really wants is money, channels, talents, and factories here.
These things all belong to the owner. It does not mean that after driving away the Russell family, he can take and ask for other things. They are all foreign companies. If everyone really fights, it will easily cause trouble.
The subsequent plan is to use the name of the Russell family to force these foreign companies away, or destroy their factories, make them disappointed with the investment environment here, or withdraw their investment, or resell, anyway, just force them away.
For these large items, such as auto parts factories, they can take away these production lines or sell them to other buyers, or resell them on the spot to see if there is a takeover.
According to the normal operating procedures, even if it is resold, Allen will not come up with the normal price.
If he had money, why didn't he buy a new one?
He wished he wouldn't pay a penny, but the look was too ugly, so he finally decided to let old Carl make a big fuss, scare the Yankees and force them away first, and let them plan to sell the production line first, so that he could try his best to lower prices.
As a loyal servant of the Hill family, Karl Lao not only knows how to handle the matters assigned by Allen, but also wants to handle them as well as possible.
What kind of things can be done to make these Americans eager to get rid of these factories here, and will they give priority to reselling them at a low price, and will they not care about the price so much?
Of course it’s the instability of the environment!
This place used to be stable because they were too close to Carmarthenshire and they were all benefited from the Hill family.
Now it's easy to make them unstable.
If something big happens in their development zone, and the surrounding environment is accompanied by risks, then even if these production lines are destroyed here, even if they want to sell to outsiders, they still have to dare to come and inspect the goods.
Now
There happens to be a very suitable person and reason around here.
The famous Northern Ireland rioters!
They haven't stopped all these years. They dare to go to London to create bomb attacks, and come to little Swansea to cause trouble. Is it reasonable?
There happens to be a development zone here with some foreign companies. The geographical distance of Swansea is not far from Northern Ireland. Both the distance and the reason for committing the crime are sufficient.
And today is the day that Old Karl planned.
Looking at the forty strong young men in front of me, they have all changed into old clothes. In terms of clothing, it is simply too easy to imitate the Northern Ireland rioters. Those who carry out attacks do not have uniform clothes. Every time To cause trouble is nothing more than picking a target with great influence and the staff is very streamlined.
But this time, in order to start the battle quickly, Old Carl specially selected these forty people. They must destroy all the target areas within half an hour!
These people used to be delivery boys for the Blue Knight takeaway company. The area where they usually deliver food is Swansea. Everyone is basically familiar with the nearby terrain.
As for weapons, the main purpose this time was to destroy and intimidate. They all used homemade Molotov cocktails. The lethality was controlled to be very low, but the destructive power was extremely high.
Calling everyone closer, Old Karl's eyes stayed on each young man's face for a few seconds. These people were thugs that his young master had spent money to support for several years.
Since they retired from the army, the delivery company has provided them with stable jobs and stable salaries. Even in the current economic downturn, the company has not laid off any delivery staff.
Only at this time, looking at the status of their friends around them, and then looking at themselves, will they feel the benefits of following the right person!
And after enjoying the benefits for so long, now is the time to use them.
As long as they do things as ordered this time, what awaits them is promotion and salary increase!
What they have to do is very simple. Set fire to the area planned according to the map.
"Right time!"
A few minutes passed before Old Carl hung up the map of the development zone. This was also the first time for him to engage in such a big battle. Although he had done dirty work in the past, his sneaky way of doing it was different from his current kind of leadership. Working with a "regular army" to do dirty work is a completely different experience.
Even at old Carl's age, he can't help but feel a little nervous and excited!
According to a group of five people, the team is divided into eight groups. Each group is responsible for a drawn area. They don't have to worry about each other. They just need to do their own thing and evacuate as planned.
Old Carl didn't dare to make it too big, just to finish this job steadily and run away after setting the fire!
"Start timing!"
Glancing at these people again, Old Karl looked at his watch and said: "It's now 10:30 in the evening. You have one and a half hours to prepare. At 12 o'clock in the evening, each group will move at the same time and evacuate on time at 12:30. No matter what happens during the period. If any accident occurs, as long as you are exposed, you will change the target. After completing the final task, come to my place to gather, and be sure to pay attention to safety. I hope I can see you here again in two hours."
"clear!"
"clear!"
"clear!"
"lets go!"
Old Carl waved his hand, and everyone picked up an unbranded simple black backpack from the ground beside him. Inside were six simple Molotov cocktails that had been fixed with cloth strips.
It's that rough product made from a big green stick beer bottle.
Not only is gasoline added to it, but some asphalt is also mixed in to increase adhesion.
After this thing is ignited and thrown out, it breaks into pieces when it hits the ground. The asphalt inside is mixed with gasoline and cannot be wiped off wherever it touches. It is very suitable for setting fire to cause destruction.
Each person carries six, and the targets are not very visible at night. These are ordinary items that can be obtained nearby, and you can't find them if you want to check them afterwards.
As for how they act?
They were uniformly equipped with bicycles, and riding them made them quiet at night, increased their speed of movement, and made them excited and flexible. Old Karl gave them a full hour and a half to prepare.
Watching the people put on their backpacks one by one and the groups left in groups, Old Carl looked at the empty warehouse with his hands behind his back. This kind of thing could only be done when Allen was not at home.
In this way, it would be impossible to have anything to do with Allen.
As for him, the person in charge of the operation, he will return to the United States after finishing this job. What happened here tonight will definitely not be too small by then. I wonder if London will send people to assist in the investigation. , but the main investigation still relies on people from Wales.
Thus.
Even if they really found some clues, if they really pointed the target at someone, should they continue to investigate, or should they pretend not to know?
Sometimes, for some things, it’s better not to take things too seriously. Since it was done by the rioters in Northern Ireland, it’s best to do it right to avoid getting yourself into trouble. After all, it’s the foreign companies that suffer the losses. Everyone. We are all Welsh, why should we cause trouble for our own family?
On September 17, the day after the celebration of Gustav's accession to the throne, Allen rushed back first. He couldn't stay in Sweden any longer.
The Swedish official responded quickly. He said that the statistical survey of the Human Rights Council investigation team needed to be re-investigated. The Swedish official knew the news the next day.
Of course, some smart people felt something was wrong with this obviously abnormal arrangement. They directly contacted Alan, the team leader, to ask what went wrong and whether they needed official help to solve it.
Swedish officials still attach great importance to joining the European Community. Now that there is a problem, they subconsciously want to solve it quickly, but what can Allen say?
He just wanted to delay this time and solve it now, so how could he make the Swedes anxious?
If they are not in a hurry, who will bother Victoria?
But he was in Sweden, and as the leader of this inspection team, it was unreasonable to miss him. In the end, Allen happened to read the newspaper.
In the early morning of September 16, a vicious incident occurred in Swansea, a city in southern Wales. It was suspected that it was attacked by Northern Ireland rioters. Dozens of foreign-owned factories in the development zone encountered man-made fires. The fires burned until late at night before they were completely extinguished.
According to newspaper reports, preliminary estimates of losses have reached US$400 million.
The rest have not been counted yet.
Allen's fiefdom is so close to Swansea, which is reasonable. Faced with such an emergency, he has to go home and take a look before talking about it.
Faced with his rhetoric, the Swedish officials could only admit it and wait for the leader of the inspection team to go home to deal with family matters first, and then wait for him to come back to talk about the rest.
Cardiff International Airport.
Allen, who had just gotten off the plane, clearly felt that the atmosphere at the airport, which was not very strict in the past, was particularly tense today.
A conspicuous police cordon was drawn up around the terminal.
Dozens of policemen wearing vests stood at the security office at the disembarkation gate.
Even the security inspection equipment has been increased, and every guest entering and leaving the country must be inspected.
Of course, Allen is still the same bird. No one dares to check on him. He is the only one in Wales who dares to directly let his family's team drive the car to the side of the track to wait for people. Even if Cardiff explodes, he will still check. Not on Allen's head.
After leaving the airport, there were even fewer pedestrians on Cardiff Road. Today is Friday, and at this time, there are still many people on the street.
But now Swansea, not far from them, was attacked by Northern Ireland rioters!
Ordinary people know best what this word represents.
Every time this group of people causes trouble, the people who suffer the most are ordinary people. Only a few big shots are killed, and civilians are accidentally injured every time.
As soon as they heard that this group of people actually appeared in Swansea, some timid people wished they could stay at home. Under such circumstances, who would dare to go out?
Allen looked at the sparse streets and grinned unconsciously. These people are still as timid as ever. As long as they are scared, they will be honest. Although this time it has nothing to do with him on the surface, but it seems that they are... After setting a fire, the deterrent effect was so great, Allen was still very satisfied.
