Red Dead Redemption: Western Consortium
Chapter 198 Cornwall’s Request
Saint Denis.
After paying enough price, Bronte finally helped David and settled matters regarding the trial.
Two condemned men, who were posed as the Callander brothers, were tried in court.
Many reporters also reported this matter in the newspapers, and it soon spread throughout the west.
The Callander brothers were notorious, especially for the Blackwater robbery, which made them famous, so their capture caused a great sensation.
And only those at the top know that this is just a scam, a scam targeted at ordinary people.
The most unhappy one is Cornwall.
Cornwall also has a great influence in Saint-Denis. For example, the freight station in Saint-Denis is a Cornish asset.
"It's a big joke that these guys who robbed the ferry and robbed my train are now going to be serious people."
"Mr. Milton, maybe I should carefully consider your employment and that contract. You don't give me any hope of catching them now."
"Could it be that the Pinkerton Detective Agency, which was once a nightmare for all federal criminals, has now become a paper tiger that cannot be wiped out even by a small gang?"
"This is a real disappointment, Mr. Milton."
In the high-end cafe in Saint-Denis, what is on the table is the latest issue of the Saint-Denis Times. The headline is the news that the Callander brothers have been arrested and imprisoned and are about to face trial.
Opposite him in Cornwall were Milton and Ross.
"Yes, Mr. Cornwall, you are right. We at Pinkerton are now chained tigers."
"In the state of New Hanover and Lemoyne, we have lost the power of law enforcement. Even if we know the whereabouts of the Van der Linde gang, we have no way to deal with them."
"If we dispatch a lot of detectives to deal with him, then I believe that the latest issue of the newspaper will be about denouncement of Pinkerton. Those union people will not miss any opportunity."
"Although we care about our cooperation with Mr. Cornwall, at this critical period, the emergence of such news will be very detrimental to us. Mr. Cornwall knows that some leaders of our company are thinking of ways to promote new law enforcement department."
Pinkerton's top leaders have understood that Pinkerton is a thing of the past and the chances of them ever gaining law enforcement authority again are slim to none.
Although they still have the support of many federal congressmen, more congressmen care more about the huge votes of the union.
After all, it has been six years since the Anti-Pinkerton Act was introduced. During these six years, they see no hope of canceling the Anti-Pinkerton Act.
Therefore, if these leaders want to use another method to allow Pinkerton to regain law enforcement power in disguise, they will promote the emergence of a new law enforcement department, and Pinkerton will be attached to this department.
Milton, as one of the few senior agents in Pinkerton, naturally knew about this, and Cornwall also had the support of the congressman behind him, so he also had some understanding of it.
"So, I can only watch helplessly, that guy named David Callander, so arrogant, escape the sanction of the law?" Cornwall asked in an unhappy tone.
Milton replied: "Mr. Cornwall should understand, David Callander, he is not your main enemy, and he has cooperated with Mr. Bronte. In the future, he will enter civilized society, and perhaps... It's a collaboration with Mr. Cornish, isn't it?"
"The only person we have to deal with from beginning to end is Dutch Van der Linde. He is the source of the evil."
"As for the others, they are just insignificant characters, aren't they, Mr. Cornish?"
After hearing this, Cornwall was still not happy, but there was no other way.
In fact, he could have intervened to prevent Bronte from whitewashing David, but after careful consideration, Cornwall did not intervene.
He is a businessman, and profit is the most important thing to him. It is not a good thing for him to offend Bronte. In Saint Denis, the city of the eastern bridgehead, Bronte has great influence.
The most important thing is that Cornwall is trying to find a way to acquire a piece of land that is rich in oil and belongs to an Indian reservation.
This requires the support of the Saint-Denis city government, including the army, and all parties. Only in this way can the re-expulsion of the Indians be completed.
As Milton said, David was not his number one enemy.
"Mr. Milton, if you can't deal with Van der Linde now, at least dealing with the O'Drisco Gang won't be a problem, right?"
"Ever since Van der Linde robbed my train, many other western gangs thought I was easy to bully, which led to more train robberies."
"Colm O'Driscoe, he has robbed my train three times. Although my losses were not huge due to the previous incident, this will turn my train into a piece of meat in the eyes of all the Western gangs. "
"It's time to teach them a lesson, Mr. Milton, and this time, I won't pay you anymore. I want to see the sincerity of Pinkerton Detective Agency."
"Otherwise, I will think you have been playing a trick on me, and my friends and I will be angry about it, and you know the consequences, Mr. Milton."
