Reborn American Giants

Chapter 36 The Chief Justice

Victor sat quietly at the table. This was the small church square in the Fandino slum. In the dirty and messy slum, this small square seemed unusually "clean and tidy".

Now there were two middle-aged men "quarreling" in front of Victor. Their wives were following behind their husbands, holding their husbands with one hand and holding their children with the other. Victor listened boredly to the two men's arguments.

While telling the story, he blinked at the children of the two families who were looking at him with curiosity and fear, but they were so frightened that they hid behind their mother. There were seven children in total, three in each family and four in each family.

Victor "chuckled" and waved to Anna, who was standing by, to bring the snacks and fruits on the table to the children, and then interrupted the quarrel between the two families.

What Victor is doing now is very simple, which is to deal with all kinds of trivial "civil disputes" in the Fandino slum. Yes, this is the "court" in the slum.

Since the people in the slums are basically smuggled into El Salvador, preparing to go to other countries, or they are other types of wanted criminals, robbers, etc. In short, no matter what reason they live in Fandino, they can work

It won't be a good job.

When there are more people of all kinds, all kinds of "contradictions" will follow. There are about 80,000 people living in the Fandino slum. In this small place, various disputes occur every day, and of course they don't.

He might go to court, go to the police, etc. In the past, Sorvino would come forward and personally resolve the "dispute" between them.

The handling method is also very simple, "Kill to pay for life, debt to pay for money." Of course, it will not be so simple and crude, but rather "humane". For example, if someone hurts someone, Sorvino will first mediate, and if the victim is willing to accept

, then Sorvino will ask the perpetrator to give a sum of money as compensation. Of course, if the victim is unwilling to accept the money, then he has to cut back the knife.

However, when people quarrel, their minds tend to get "heated up" and they do impulsive things. When they calm down, they generally won't be so "excited" anymore, so things like "cutting them off" basically won't happen.

It is the choice to accept compensation.

What if the perpetrator can't get the money? Don't worry, at this time the gang will lend a sum of money to compensate the victim for the perpetrator, and then the gang will arrange for the perpetrator to have a share of "luck"

"Poison", to get rid of an "enemy" for the gang, a relatively dangerous job to repay the money he owes the gang.

Because it is handled in public, such matters generally appear to be more "fair" and can be convinced and accepted by everyone. Therefore, the security of the Fandino slum is actually better than that of the "big cities" outside.

This made Victor a little "surprised". Isn't what this group of drug traffickers did unknowingly the same as what our party has always been advocating for "to closely connect with the people and jointly build a harmonious social development"?

So this is why the lower class people living in the Fandino slums support Sorvino so much, because they regard Sorvino as their "spokesperson" who can lead them to fight against the "rich"

For their "exploitation", Sorvino is the "Robin Hood" of the new era.

In the past, Sorvino handled these matters personally, but since he "resides" in the small building all day long, this matter has been handed over to Victor's hands, so every "Sunday", when people come to the church to gather and pray

, Victor will come to this square to make a "judgment" and resolve the various "things" accumulated by the people in the slums this week.

Victor listened for a long time. The conflict between the two families was actually very simple. It was simply because another family destroyed their house due to the typhoon, and the "resettlement building" was also being built, so they built it in the open space next to the other family's house.

A shack was used as a temporary shelter, and the occupied family believed that the other party had encroached on their own land, so they asked the other party to demolish the shack and leave their land. Of course, the affected family was unwilling, so a "conflict" arose.

Hearing this, Victor felt a little disgusted. What about your family and my family? Both families are extremely poor, and they still have to quarrel over such a trivial matter.

But perhaps it is because they are too poor that these people are particularly concerned about the loss of their "interests".

Victor simply made a "ruling". The disaster-stricken family paid the other party 300 colones every month as "rent". Due to inflation, the colones further depreciated, equivalent to about 30 US dollars. The other family was not allowed to make any further payments.

The action of driving away an opponent.

The two families were satisfied with the result, and Victor asked Anna to pack some snacks for the children to take back. It was not their fault that they were born in "hell", and it was better for the children to be "innocent". The children in the Fandino slum

Fortunately, the children of the poor outside must be forcibly recruited by the army according to the law as soon as they reach the age of twelve to participate in the war between the government army and the guerrillas.

After Victor finished handling these matters, he asked Anna to pack her things, say goodbye to Father Bruno, and then took Piru and Atto to his small building. As he walked, Victor ordered Piru: "Piru, you

Go find Bento and ask him to arrange for someone to repair the water pipes in the South District. Father Bruno told me that the water supply in the South District has been without water for many days."

There are simple water pipe facilities in the Fandino slum, which were also built when Sorvino installed electric lights.

However, it is now in disrepair and damage is inevitable. What? What do you ask the government department to do?

Fandino can be said to be a country within a country. There are no police, no government agencies, and people here do not pay taxes. They follow their own set of laws, so the government's little infrastructure will not "take care" of this.

A group of poor people.

Piru Ying claimed that after confessing to Victor, he turned around and went to do the things Victor told him. Looking at his back, Victor nodded with satisfaction. Piru was a man with a brain and willing to use his brain. It was worthy of him to treat him further.

"Cultivation", as for whether he will betray Victor?

Victor said that as long as he remains strong, he will not worry about the betrayal of his subordinates.

And Anello is suitable to be an action person. He is agile and has outstanding physique. In ancient times, he was also a "strong general" character who could destroy armies and kill generals.

Putting aside these thoughts, Victor returned to the small building accompanied by Ato. Develti greeted him cautiously. As Victor's "status" increased, the two girls Develti and Anna became more and more respectful, which made Victor feel uncomfortable.

The appearance was "boring", and he couldn't help but miss the taste of "Lady Louisa".

Just as he sat down on the sofa, Banban came in to inform Victor that two "Americans" came to the door and asked Victor to meet.

Hearing "American", Victor felt a chill in his heart. At this time, the United States has already licked the wounds of the "Vietnam War" and is in full competition with the Soviet Union, and Latin America has always been regarded by the Americans as their "posterior."

Garden", so they regarded "Cuba", an alien in the Americas, as a nail that communism had inserted into the Americas, and they wished they could get rid of it quickly. During Castro's life, he was assassinated 638 times.

, but he has never given in to the Americans.

Now that the Americans are looking for me, a small drug dealer in San Salvador, there is a saying that "good people don't come, and bad people come," and they must deal with it well.
