Chapter 403 Afternoon [2]
Chester's heartbeat when he was sitting on the train made him feel uncomfortable, even though he was sitting in the first class of the neat train that had just appeared.
After about a year and a half long investigation, inquiry, sorting and design, the Imperial Railway Department finally launched first-class services across the board. The reason why first-class services appeared so slowly was because the names of first-class and second-classes sparked protests from some social ideological activists, who believed that launching this service on steam locomotives was a restoration of class concepts and an act of artificially increasing social classes.
This view has to be said to be very strange. What's even more bizarre is that this view actually has an unbelievable audience, especially the provincial group of people who call for the fact that this dangerous idea cannot be restored and the contradictions between different fields in society are not allowed to be restored.
Therefore, the issue of first class has been repeatedly discussed and studied, and no less than ten hearings were held for this. In the end, the Supreme Court of the Empire believed that the purpose of establishing first class was to enable passengers to enjoy better treatment during the journey. It has nothing to do with social class level. Anyone can take the first class as long as they spend money, no matter what race or profession he is.
That being said, even if the homeless man and beggar have money, they will definitely not be able to buy first-class tickets.
At this time, Chester was unable to calm down. The death of Andy brothers cast a shadow on him, just as if Klaus didn't know who was doing it against him before he died. Chester didn't know who was doing it against Brother Anton, what was the purpose and what was the motive. He knew nothing about it. He even suspected that the death of Brother Andy brothers might have something to do with Abel's death, after all, the brothers had only done this in recent times.
This made Chester frightened. If it was really for this reason, would those who took action attack him? After all, he played a very disgraceful role, not only seizing Abel's estate, but also sending him back to God. Will those killers choose themselves?
So after dealing with everything in anxiety, he packed up all the accumulation of Abel for more than 20 years and boarded the train to Audis. He believed that if anyone wanted to kill himself, he had to consider Dulin's opinion first.
First class service has just been launched, with only twelve independent cabins in a car, ensuring the privacy and privacy of every passenger.
The knock on the door woke Chester up. After he asked in a low voice, the sweet voice of the flight attendant came from outside the door. He opened a crack and saw a young girl standing in the aisle with various drinks placed in the cart. The second prohibition issued by the Empire seemed to be meaningless to the flight attendant system, as if he didn't know that there was this decree. Except for the high-degree spirits, there were some slightly lower ones.
"Sir, do you need any drinks?" In addition to a simple meal, the ticket worth six yuan each also provides two free drinks.
Chester felt a little nervous, and he glanced at the wine on the cart, a little confused, "Give me a glass of wine that can relax me, thank you!"
The flight attendant quickly picked up a bottle and poured a glass of wine for him and placed it on the tea tray next to him, "Please use it slowly. If you need anything, you can press the green button on your left hand side. I wish you a happy journey."
After Chester thanked again, he closed the hatch door. He picked up the wine and took a sip. The spicy liquid rolled in his mouth, which made him feel a desire to vomit, but he swallowed it. The flames poured into his stomach along his throat. After a stimulating reaction in his stomach, the heat completely dissolved, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
It only took less than three hours to get from Namilinders to Audis. He slept for a while in a daze. When he woke up, the radio in the train told all passengers that Audis had arrived. He held his forehead and shook his head, his eyebrows were twisted together. I don’t know if it was an illusion, but he felt his stomach hurt a little. He checked the suitcase, picked it up and got out of the car under the guidance of the flight attendant.
He stood on the platform and decided to tell the direction and left quickly. The girl who poured wine for him had been staring at him in the car window until she could not see him.
The rapid pace made the whole body move. Chester would cover his stomach from time to time. He always felt his stomach getting more and more uncomfortable. He guessed whether it was because he didn't eat. He had been in a tense process these days, and he often forgot to eat while busy. He didn't remember until the feeling of hunger came. He raised his wrist and looked at the time. It was a while before the time he and Dulin agreed. He found a small restaurant on the side of the road and asked for a local specialty, grind beef and steamed wheat kernels.
When he came here the first two times, he felt that Audis City was really a countryside. Only rural people would use steaming to process wheat kernels, and he also thought it was not that delicious. But after returning to Namilinders, the one who impressed him most about Audis City was the ground beef mixed with steamed wheat kernels. The beef and soup were completely covered on the steamed wheat kernels, and there was also a goose egg yolk on the top layer. After stirring, the mellow taste combined with the unique taste of beef, which is unforgettable for a long time.
While eating, thinking about some of the things he would talk about when he met Dulin for a while. He decided to give up more interests to win early. Brother Andy died and Abel died. He knew that he could not support the public transportation operation rights of a city, so he had to make a choice.
Abel had a wide connection before, so he could.
The Andy brothers are fine, because they are cruel enough that others will not provoke these two guys.
But he alone can't.
It was not that he had tried. He had been helping Abel with work before. At that time, those big men would meet him and listen to him. But when Abel died, he realized that none of the people he originally thought belonged to was willing to see him. At this time, he realized that he was not a big man at all, but a small man who could not be even smaller, and he did not even have the qualification to meet those people.
His only idea now is to give up more profits, hold Dulin's thighs tightly, and then find a remote place to live a rich and ordinary life until the end.
Suddenly a heat flowed out of his nose. He quickly raised his face and reached out to touch the liquid flowing out of his nostrils. The scarlet blood surprised him a little. He pushed the dish open and threw down a dollar, took out a handkerchief to stuff his nostrils, and also needed to cover the excess handkerchief with one hand, leaving the restaurant a little embarrassedly.
After walking for about ten minutes, he waited in the city hall door for a while before walking upstairs. Outside the door of Dulin's office, he took off his handkerchief and stopped bleeding from his nose, but he felt the blood clotted in his nose, which made him feel a little uncomfortable. At the same time, the abdominal pain became more severe, and he began to doubt whether he had eaten or drunk something unclean.
In his memory, when he was playing outside with his friends when he was a child, he was too thirsty and drank a little river water and had to suffer from stomachache for two days.
He took a deep breath, wiped off the dry blood stains outside his nostrils, took a deep breath and sang his momentum, patted his cheek, tidied up his tie, and knocked on the door of Dulin's office.
"Come in!"
The moment he pushed open the door, a seemingly sincere smile appeared on his face. He first greeted Du Lin, and then sat on the chair opposite Du Lin, "Mr. Mayor..."
Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Dulin.
"I heard that your boss is dead?"
Chester was stunned for a moment, his brain boiled in an instant, and countless excuses flashed past him. He finally decided to tell the truth, "It's true, this is very painful news. I happened to be doing things for Mr. Abel outside." The regret and grief on his face were as real as the actors trained in the opera house since childhood, and even his eyes were a little red. "Now I have taken over Mr. Abel's company, so I thought of asking to see you. The issue of urban public transportation we discussed last time may need to be modified."
Du Lin put down his pen, and he leaned back on the chair, pressing his hands and fingers against his legs, "How to change?"
"I plan..." He suddenly raised his head, took out his handkerchief and pressed his nostril. At that moment, he took a breath, and something with a solid touch slid into his throat along his nose, and the heat surged again, "I'm very sorry, I'm rude."
"Mr. Abel's death has dealt a serious blow to me. I have been feeling a little uncomfortable recently..." He continued to talk about the serious matter: "On the basis of the original I decided not to give subsidies from the Town Hall, not a penny, and I also hope that the Town Hall can invest. I read the information about several famous developed cities in the Empire, and the public transportation system of these cities is in the hands of the Town Hall."
"I think this is very beneficial to the future operations. On the one hand, the city hall can supervise our work, and at the same time, there are no artificial obstacles in coordination, which is conducive to the healthy development of public transportation companies."
Dulin was very interested in this proposal. He pondered for a moment, "Your idea is very interesting, I think it's good, so what about the details?"
Chester put the suitcase on his legs, rolled his eyes down, opened the suitcase with one hand and took out a document and placed it on the table, "This is my plan..."
"puff!"
A strong desire to vomit could no longer be suppressed. He thought he was going to be embarrassed, but he actually lost his life.
