"Then I'll go back first. Uncle Angus, you can take care of this?"
Alan pointed at the "parts" on the ground, and then pointed at the two policemen. Duke Angus understood immediately and nodded, "Okay, wait until I finish dealing with things here, and we'll talk again in a few days!"
Sitting back in the car, before leaving, Alan told Little Stone: "Leave some people to help Duke Angus. His orders are equivalent to my orders. Okay, go and make the arrangements, and then we'll go back to the hotel."
After saying that, Alan leaned back and didn't even look at the people outside. Today's events had simply ended the first stage here.
…
As for why he made such a big fuss today.
First, his men were chopped and had their limbs amputated, which was a serious injury and disability. He could not tolerate such a thing.
Food delivery companies are now in the stage of development and expansion. Considering the current security environment in the UK, a security environment like that in Manchester can only be regarded as normal. If you want to say it is chaotic... it depends on who you compare it with.
Even in London, there are countless gangs hiding in the dark, but the police just don't have much time to deal with them.
Compared to these places, Wales is much better.
As for the second point, Alan found that his food delivery company had difficulty expanding after expanding beyond Wales.
Part of the problem is price. For example, when buying land, his sites all directly purchase large tracts of remote land to use as warehouses. This behavior is very capital-intensive. In general, even in remote cities, land prices are not cheap. Each city requires an investment of several million pounds or even more. As a result, although it is highly resistant to risks, its expansion speed is relatively slow.
Add to that the invisible resistance from some local families and businesses, and it becomes very difficult to expand.
Now that something "finally" happened, Alan was both angry and happy.
This time he finally had the opportunity to take revenge "legitimately".
The death of the sheriff was not only a warning to the two young policemen, but also a warning to all local families who knew about this incident in the future.
Anyone who dares to touch Allen must be prepared for revenge.
Judging from the brutal character that Allen has shown to the outside world now, no matter where the food delivery company expands in the future, as long as today's incident is spread out, the resistance he will encounter will be much smaller.
If you want to do something and it is difficult to do, then do something more extreme than this one. In this way, many people will turn to accept the thing they originally wanted to do in order to prevent them from continuing to do more extreme things.
After all... a noble with such a brutal character just came to their city to set up a small company and deliver takeout. Compared with his behavior of killing and arson, as long as he can abide by the law and not cause trouble everywhere, it is still very acceptable.
In this way, we can kill several birds with one stone. When things just start to show signs of happening, we can use the most ruthless means to stop the momentum. In the future, if such things happen or want to happen, no matter who they are, they will have to think about what happened today and see if they can withstand the revenge from this noble lord if they touch Master Allen's people.
As for the final purpose...
Of course, he also pulled the Duke of Angus into the mix and gave him a push.
The Duke of Angus has become quite famous in the parliament in recent years. Although his own ability is not good, his reputation is useful!
He is a serious duke with great principles.
As long as he supports the Duke of Angus, Allen can naturally extend his hand into Manchester. In this way, he can transform from a powerful foreign dragon into a local tyrant with the help of the name of the Duke of Angus.
In this way, from a righteous perspective, Allen's coming here to kill people was not considered crossing the line. At most, it could be considered as helping the Duke of Angus out of kindness.
As long as these local families don't unite and exclude him at the same time, Allen can hide in the dark and slowly support the Duke of Angus's mischief. In a few years, he will be able to secretly open up most of the relationships within Manchester. By then...
There are huge benefits here!
Wales is so big, but it only has one or two million people. How many people are there in Manchester? It is more than the entire population of Wales combined, and its economy is more developed.
There is a lot of money in big cities!
There is the Duke of Angus in the open, and there is Allen in the dark. The two of them work together to slowly devour the whole of Manchester.
As for whether the Duke of Angus will become disobedient in the future...
The Duke of Angus is already over fifty years old, and his health has long been damaged by his dissolute life in his early years. In a few years... if he really doesn't obey, haha... given his physical condition, it is reasonable for him to have some accidents.
As for the Duke of Angus's son, his father is so incompetent, and his son's ability is even worse!
It can be said that as long as they follow Allen obediently, Allen can ensure that their family will be prosperous and wealthy for at least three generations. If they don't obey...
Then turn his family into puppets completely. Anyway, not all the people in his family can die, and Allen can still use the title of Duke for decades.
…
Sunday, November 8, 1992.
Today is the last day of rest, and it is also the day after Allen went to Manchester overnight to hack people.
Windsor Castle, located in the Royal Borough of Berkshire, is currently welcoming its owner.
This castle, where Alan was awarded the honor last time, can be traced back to the time of William I and has existed for 950 years.
The Queen has lived here since she was a child, and Windsor Castle has been regarded by successive monarchs as the last symbol of British monarchy.
As for Buckingham Palace…
To put it simply, it can only be regarded as a place where the monarch works, and Windsor Castle is the monarch's real home, just like the castle where Alan lives now, they are both their homes.
And... castles with a long history, especially those war fortresses that were originally built for war, all have the same common problem. Just as Alan couldn't stand the poor light and humid environment in his castle, the Queen also hated the poor light and humid environment in Windsor Castle.
Fortunately... the Queen herself is very rich, and the British government has to spend a sum of money every year to support the royal family, so... the Queen will have the castle renovated every few years according to her ideas.
It has been exactly forty years since she officially moved into her room in the deepest part of the castle, and that place in the castle, which was like her home, has been slowly transformed by her into a "real home".
…
The Queen's home is located at the deepest corner of Windsor Castle. In the past, it was almost like a military fortress with a large interior space.
The Queen's room is not big, and there is a small living room separating her room from Prince Philip's.
Surrounding their room are small rooms for Boss Cha and his brothers and sisters. They also grew up here when they were young.
In addition to these, the floor below where they live also has the Queen's own study and office, Prince Philip's study and office, etc., as well as other messy restaurants and reception rooms.
Compared with a normal family, such a residence is definitely of high standards, but compared with those super wealthy foreign royal families, the Queen’s current living environment seems very ordinary.
But... no matter what, everything here, from the decoration and layout to every piece of furniture, was selected by the Queen herself. Whenever she has a holiday, the Queen will spend most of her free time in Windsor Castle.
The space where the entire Queen and her family live only occupies a very small part of the entire Windsor Castle.
How many rooms are there in the entire Windsor Castle?
One thousand!
There are around 300 servants living here all year round, all of whom serve the Queen and her family.
However... the entire Windsor Castle is divided into two parts by the round tower in the middle. In the front part, except for the church, all the servants and maids live here, while the "backyard" belongs to the Queen's family, and they can usually only enter when they have work.
As for outsiders who want to enter the deepest part of Windsor Castle, only invited personnel can come in to take a look when the British officials report an over-specification event here, and the activity area will also be strictly restricted. After all... this is the Queen's real home.
…
The tall granite walls surrounding Windsor Castle block most of the sunlight. Even just after noon, only a patch of lawn in the center of the entire castle can be illuminated by the sun.
The Queen was wearing a dark green windbreaker and walking on the lawn with her hands behind her back. In the distance, a dozen corgis were barking around a blindfolded calf.
This is the Queen’s Corgis’ favorite activity, “Bullfighting”!
Next to the queen was an old woman who looked a little old and had a windproof scarf on her head.
This... is a maid who has been taking care of the Queen since she was young, and works part-time as one of the Queen's secretaries.
This person did not have much talent, but with his excellent memory, he held the position of Queen's secretary for decades.
Because she could repeat to the Queen every document she had read word for word, she was nicknamed "Robot Susan". This means that she was like a robot, working the same way for decades and never making mistakes.
…
"Your Majesty... This morning, the Prime Minister sent a letter from his secretary."
The Queen usually likes to walk her dogs when she is resting. She doesn't walk her dogs with a leash, but likes to let all the dogs she raise out, and she just stands by and watches them frolic and fight. Seeing that the Queen was in a good mood at the moment, Susan came up to her and reported softly.
"Hmm? What did the letter say?"
The queen seemed to have a cold, her voice was a little muffled, and she asked casually without turning her head.
"It happened in the early hours of the day before yesterday. It was said that the Earl of Carmarthen drove to Manchester in the middle of the night and then... did something."
"Um?"
The queen, who was watching a few corgis biting a calf, tilted her head and asked in confusion, "Is that Alan?"
"Yes, that sir."
"Did he duel with another noble? Or did he seduce another noble's wife?"
These were the only things that impressed the Queen about Alan. In her mind, Alan was a typical playboy, with no great talent but a habit of eating, drinking, whoring and gambling.
…
Susan repeated to the Queen the contents of the letter she had read. This letter seemed to be just a description of what happened, without any emotional stance, but it was specially sent by the Prime Minister's secretary. Even though it was a descriptive letter without a stance, when it was sent, it already had a stance because of the identity of the sender!
"Oh? So... Alan killed someone again?"
The queen snorted. As long as it didn't involve killing nobles, she didn't care about anything else. In her eyes, it was all trivial.
After walking a few steps forward, the queen suddenly stopped.
Thinking back to what Susan had just described, he asked, "What are the results of your investigation? Are they the same as what he said in the letter?"
"Your Majesty, the process is roughly similar, but I investigated in more detail and found some differences in a few places."
Susan was very honest. She understood all these things clearly, but she would not say a word unless the Queen asked her. She was just like a robot, answering each question one by one to prevent the Queen from being led astray by her.
…
"snort!"
After listening to Susan's retelling of the issues in greater detail, the Queen snorted again. According to the description, although Alan did a lot of things and made a lot of excuses, under the investigation of those who were interested, how he did it and what he did could not be concealed.
But... he had an excuse. Everything he did was not done by him personally, but by "others". Just like Alan thought, these things had "nothing to do" with him.
But now, the Prime Minister has handed a letter to the Queen, simply repeating what has happened and not making any requests, but his meaning is already very clear.
This young earl has been too conspicuous recently. He killed a descendant of nobility in the street in May. Now, just one day after the deportation order was lifted, he went to Manchester to kill people again. Such behavior is too arrogant, but no matter how arrogant he is, the prime minister can't do anything about him, which is very annoying.
This person is not only a nobleman, but also a royal retainer. As the saying goes, you have to look at the owner before you beat the dog. Originally... such a letter should have been sent directly to Boss Cha, who is Allen's direct "superior", but now Boss Cha happened to be on a business trip to South Korea, and the Queen was the only one at home, so... in the end the letter was handed to the Queen. The Prime Minister's meaning was very clear. He was afraid that the Queen would pretend not to see it, so he specifically explained the situation to the Queen and asked her for an explanation.
…
But after hearing everything, the Queen didn't see it that way.
The old lady sometimes had a strange temper. If Alan deliberately picked a duel and killed someone like he did half a year ago, she would issue the second expulsion order without saying a word.
But now…what happened was that someone took the initiative to attack Allen’s men first, and then Allen fought back.
Moreover, he did not do anything at all and even had a reason ready. According to Alan's reasoning, he had nothing to do with the matter.
Since he has nothing to do with this matter, how can he be punished?
Nobles, the queen will only punish them when they make mistakes. Now they have not made any mistakes, so why should they be punished?
The queen narrowed her eyes, and her look was already somewhat unfriendly.
If I really punish him, it will prove that Allen really made a mistake, huh!
Was Major testing her with this? Did he think he was old?
