The journey starts from the Titanic

"Mr. William, please rest assured, this is absolutely impossible in Hollywood! Our police station is absolutely fair and honest, fighting crime and violence, and never relenting!" James categorically cut the line.

"Never soften? What if they also come to Hollywood someday?" Situ Nan got closer and stared at James.

"Never soften! No compromise." James seemed to feel the test in Situ Nan's eyes, and replied calmly.

Those eyes not only have determination, but also-ambition!

"Well said! I hope I have a chance to see Mr. James' determination." Situ Nan nodded and decided to give James some sweetness.

"Join our party later! Mr. James."

"Good." James agreed immediately.

Although I don't know it is such a gathering, joining Situ Nan's gathering is tantamount to being in the circle of big people, and it will definitely be rewarding.

James thought expectantly.

The gathering was really small, with only a few people: Senator Fred?Eaton, San Francisco Mayor Cole?Fargo, and Edgar, Commissioner of the Bureau of Investigation?Hoover.

Eaton was the mayor of Los Angeles. During his tenure, he built the Los Angeles Water Tank, which solved the water problem in Los Angeles and laid the foundation for Los Angeles to become a world city.He is also a big businessman and has always maintained a good cooperative relationship with Situ Nan.

Fargo is Dennis from the Fargo family, president of Wells Fargo Bank?Fargo's cousin, a promising political star, is also a family member of Situ Nan.

Hoover rose from the Wall Street bombing, from an ordinary investigator to a senior detective of the Bureau of Investigation, this time he was dispatched by the headquarters to California to fight the KKK.Humble but powerful, he will be in charge of the FBI for decades in the future, and he is also a figure worthy of Stuart’s investment.

Situ Nan introduced them to Sheriff James one by one. They were a little bit disdainful of a small group of people who often attended their gatherings. They didn’t notice that they were all old treacherous cunning men. They could not see any discomfort on their faces. Instead, they were kind to James. .

James was a little flattered, seeing Situ Nan's eyes a little grateful.He knew that these big men could be polite to himself, mainly because of Situ Nan's face.

At the beginning of the talks, the KKK did not discuss the KKK, but rather discussed a lot of American policies, mostly about the White House and China.

Eaton brought up a rumor from China Shangdun that it was the naval oil concession case, and the White House had faintly reported that it was fraudulent for personal gain.

"Stoney, the Secretary of the Interior wants to take out the two oilfield concessions in California, don't you want to fight for it? This is a good opportunity." Eaton asked with a smile.

He knew about the relationship between Situ Nan and Andrew, and thought that Situ Nan should be quite sure about this, and by the way, he could also follow behind.

"Although the White House and Rockefeller are mortal enemies, they may not like Occidental Petroleum. There is a group of Ohio brothers around the president. How can it be my turn?"

Situ Nan declined to say.The hands and feet of Harding's group are dirty, and Situ Nan is too late to hide, how dare to stick it on?

"That's a shame." Eaton regretted.

"No regrets. I have other projects in my hand, I will discuss with you when I have time." Situ Nan smiled, giving Eaton a reassurance.

"Don't forget San Francisco for such a meaningful thing. We welcome investment in San Francisco."

Fargo interrupted with a smile.In fact, it is to remind Situ Nan not to forget the Fargo family.Over the years, the Eaton family and the Fargo family followed Stuart in investing in oil, steel and other industries and made a lot of money, becoming partners and ally of the William Consortium.

At the same time, their political resources also serve Situ Nan.At least this time, the support of these two politicians is indispensable to clean up the KKK.

Feeling a little neglected by Hoover and James, Situ Nan turned his head and smiled: "It's all about business. If they don't mind, I can recommend some good projects."

Regarding the investment projects recommended by Situ Nan, Hoover felt that it was a polite remark. He was determined to strive for performance in his official career, so it was naturally not good to leave a handle on money.Because he is an agent with a special status.

But James was overjoyed and looked a little excited.

Situ Nan saw it all.He smiled in his heart and commented on the two in secret.

Several people naturally talked about the current KKK.Eaton spoke first. He took a sip of wine and brewed his emotions.

"It's unbelievable that such brutal things will happen in this country?

Decades ago, we had no choice but to take up arms and made great sacrifices in order to maintain the federal system. Afterwards, we also generously forgiven the mutineers. Now they are resurgence.The government must not let them go this time, otherwise the democratic and free system founded by the sages will face a great test again."

Eaton condemned the atrocities of the KKK with an upright look. In the past two years, his rivals have divided many of Eaton’s votes with the support of the KKK, posing a threat to Eaton, so he is the most active in fighting the KKK. Up.

"Yes. Mr. Eaton's opinion is very reasonable. Criminal organizations like the KKK are like a cancer and should be resolutely banned. We want the White House to hear California's voice, and they cannot ignore the threats to citizens here. "Fago agreed.

As the mayor of San Francisco, he hated the KKK, because the KKK has already affected social stability.How can a society without stability develop its economy?

Whether it is from the political future or safeguarding the interests of the consortium, he must stand up and fight the KKK.

"Mr. Hoover, what do you think?" Situ Nan asked with a smile.To ban the KKK, we must rely on the power of the Bureau of Investigation.

"Me? I have no opinion. It is my duty to fight crime and maintain judicial security." Hoover said indifferently, feeling his tone a little awkward, and he added: "If we can get the support and help of honest people, our work I'm more sure. Mr. James, are you right?"

Hoover looked at James with a smile.

"Of course. It is my duty to fight crime and maintain law and order, and it is also my honor. I am absolutely unrelenting." James said immediately.

Situ Nan was very satisfied with their performance. He first praised Eaton and Fargo as the conscience of voters, and also praised Hoover and James as the safety shield of citizens.

"With you righteous and powerful gentlemen, I believe that California will have a better future, and the United States will become stronger. As a responsible citizen, I can easily stand with you and fight against evil forces. Declare war." Situ Nan smiled.

"For California! For freedom and equality! For America!" He toasted and swigged.

Just when Situ Nan and the others were toasting and drinking, in a mansion in Anaheim, Los Angeles, several big Klan leaders also gathered together with grim faces. The recent situation worried them.

This is the place where the KKK has the strongest power. From the police station to the parliament, they almost dominate Anaheim, dominating it, and no one dares to control it.

"Recently, the newspapers verbally criticized our government. Now I am under a lot of pressure. Some lawmakers no longer trust the government. Some voters also have great opinions on the police station."

Carlos, the mayor of Annaheim who was talking, frowned, and regretted that he had called the police station to release those bastards.

Thinking of this, he glanced complainingly at Hades, the leader of the California branch of the KKK sitting across from him. Hades is also the largest local gang leader and controls hundreds of gang members.This time Mary rape was caused by his men.

Those idiots!It's so arrogant, why did you find the Spanish nun instead of the yellow-skinned monkey?

Hades lowered his head slightly, and scolded the men in his heart.It's just that those guys disappeared after coming out of the police station.

Originally there was no evidence, and the trouble was not that big, but I didn't expect to expose it to the newspaper, and it was now a mess.

"Then what do you want? Do you want to get rid of it?" Hades glanced at Carlos, even if he did something wrong, he couldn't let him go in front of Carlos.

"You are ashamed to say that it was all good things done by your stupid people. I told you to ask you to move less. This is in California, not Southern Ohio or Kansas. Now I have been questioned. I can't speak for you anymore." Carlos said angrily.

"That's too much for not seeing you when you usually divide money?" Hades just couldn't appreciate Carlos' hypocrisy.

"Okay. Stop arguing. Now the important thing is how to solve this trouble. I have a hunch that we may be targeted by others. Have you noticed that almost all newspapers are controlled by others, and no one does it for us. Speaking. When and how are American newspapers neat?" It was Baker who spoke.

A low-key and shrewd man is also the head behind the KKK. Many activities are planned by Baker.Not only that, he also represents the headquarters of the Ohio KKK and draws a lot of money from California every year.

Upon hearing Baker's reminder, Carlos and Hades both looked silent, and Baker's words came to their hearts.Now they are riding a tiger, and the headquarters are already overwhelmed.

Yesterday’s newspapers suddenly published the shocking Frank case, and the Jewish Anti-Defamation League joined the war band and the KKK declared war.There has been widespread opposition in several major states including New York, Washington, Massachusetts, and New Jersey.
