I Have 48 Hours a Day
Vol 2 Chapter 167: Greenhouse flowers
"Why did my father go to jail because of Malcolm?" Karina opened her mouth wide and looked a little dazed. The first time she heard the news, she was at a loss, but the blind eye in front of her collapsed The black man who professed to be a gladiator also made her feel a little uneasy.
"We don't have exact evidence so far." Zhang Heng poured a glass of wine on the businesswoman to calm her down a bit.
"But your father's time in jail is a bit too coincident. Raymond's suspicion is not unreasonable. Your father has obviously become an obstacle to the establishment of a black business alliance. His exit from Malcolm is the biggest beneficiary. The familiar black market businessman on Tiandao Island also inquired. In fact, after your father was in jail, no one suspected that someone was behind it, but in the end Raymond came forward and endorsed Malcolm, and this matter was also revealed. It's over. You should have seen your father after that. Did he say anything? "
Karina recalled, "After the incident, we spent a lot of money to buy jailers, but the meeting time was very short. My mother and sister spent most of the time, and only a few minutes were left by my time. I was going to take over his business at that time, so we mainly talked about business matters. Although my father gave me both his contacts and the remaining transport ship, he didn't actually agree with me to come to Nassau. In the end, he told me that the most dangerous thing on the island was not pirates, and told me not to believe anyone easily. "
The business woman paused. "In fact, Malcolm was good to me when I first arrived on the island. Although he insisted that the black market merchants who did not cooperate with the pirate ship could not join the black business alliance to participate in the division, it also made clear that it was impossible to persuade several other merchants The cooperative pirate ships that originally belonged to my father were returned to me, but at that time there were still some powerful pirate ships on the island that had not yet been negotiated. Malcolm gave me some captain names and let me try to fight for them.
However, because I was a woman, and I almost didn't know anyone soon after I came to Nassau, I couldn't help them in the negotiations, and I didn't have enough money to bribe the important people on the ship. In the end, I didn't succeed. I really appreciate Malcolm. He is one of the few people on the island who is willing to help me. If it is not a desperation, I would not want to fight against his black business alliance. I never thought that my father would be in prison with him. related. "
Karina finished talking about the wine in her mouth, but was still unable to calm down. The businesswoman lowered her glass and stood up. "No, I'm going to talk to him and let him release my father."
"Are you going to walk over and let him admit that he did it himself?" Zhang Hengdao.
"If he does not release my father, then I will tell others in the alliance what he has done well. Since he could have dealt with my father before, then he may also be because of other things to others. Do it, "said the businesswoman.
"This may indeed cause him a little trouble, but as I said before, we do n’t have enough evidence to prove that Malcolm has dealt with your father, and ..." Zhang Heng looked at the black man beside his eyes Gladiator.
The latter added calmly, "And your only witness is of slave origin, not to mention strictly speaking, I just heard the quarrel between Raymond and Malcolm."
"There is also bad news. Your presence has already had an adverse effect on the black business alliance, and Malcolm is ready to do it for you." Zhang Hengdao.
The businesswoman's face changed, and since she found the Jackdaw, she still had some psychological preparations for this kind of thing, but when it happened, she still felt a great deal of pressure, especially when she learned that her father It was because of opposition to the black business alliance that she was arrested. She didn't know what the outcome would be waiting for her.
But from the first day she landed on the island, she knew that she had no way out. At first, she just rescued her father from prison in order to collect a ransom, but this time she made a big profit by selling spices. After paying the money, Karina found that she gradually fell in love with what she was doing.
This may sound a little crazy, because as early as a few months ago, she was still busy participating in salons and dances with those ladies and ladies, enjoying the excellent living conditions created by her father, almost to the cruel world outside Know nothing.
Until she came to Nassau and wanted to take over her father's career, she continued to run into obstacles on the island during this time, and tried all the hardships she had never experienced in the past two decades. In order to join the black business alliance, she gave up Her own restraint, running around, asking for help from her father's former friends, bargaining with those pirates whom she used to think of as savages, trying to speculate on the needs of each other's ideas, trying to find ways to win cooperation with them, and seizing every one in front of her opportunity.
Things like Mao late in the night who broke into a strange man's house by himself, would never have happened to her in the past.
Karina herself was wondering why she hadn't collapsed until now.
She was like a flower growing in a greenhouse. She suddenly left the comfortable environment and was abandoned relentlessly in the wilderness. However, after resisting the raging snowstorm, she also gained the opportunity to grow wild.
This is a life that is absolutely inexperienced at salons and dances ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ There are crises, betrayals, challenges from all sides, but nothing is boring.
Karina can feel what's boiling in the blood, which has never been in her past life. If she had just thought of holding back her father to return to her previous life, she would make money The first bucket of gold, after seeing her hard work paid off during this time, she was not willing to return to the greenhouse again.
Karina took a deep breath. "I'll be ready, no matter who my opponent is, I won't be easily defeated."
"I'm afraid that's not enough." Zhang Hengdao, "I hope you can be more active, and it's better to make the black business alliance feel more pressure. At the same time, I will start with your father's affairs. Provoked the contradiction between Malcolm and Raymond. However, I must say that once you do this, you will make your situation more dangerous. Now, although there is friction between us and the black business alliance, it is not too much Seriously, if we really stand against each other, it is not excluded that Malcolm may use some means other than rules to deal with you. We are now racing against time, to see who you and Malcolm can't stand first. "
"I don't have any other options at all, don't I? I don't have anything to worry about, then." Karina didn't hesitate.
