Chapter 38 Only family comes first
"So do we smash your **** and drag you into US waters, or do you **** yourself, Canada? Or do you want to fight a small US-Canada naval war, which side is the US Coast Guard or the Canadian Coast Guard? Come here faster?" Afterwards, Rocco Waldman, who has been at sea all year round and is familiar with such scenes, replaced Colin Hawke's voice and shouted at the other party with a megaphone.
And Colin Hawke, carrying a double-barreled shotgun, followed by his fellow workers and partners, showed his figure from the deck at this moment.
Facing the current situation, the Canadian fishing boat Augusta did not hesitate, and turned away obediently. After all, the K.K.S ship of Rocco Waldman is close to it at the moment. If there is a conflict, it will not take advantage of it, and it just I want to take advantage of the opportunity to intimidate and take advantage of it, not to make my ship cheap for the Americans.
"Wise choice, Canada." Seeing the opponent turn around and leave, Rocco Wadman said coldly.
Tommy looked at the slowly approaching K.K.S. with an ugly expression, but as the ship got closer and saw the vague cargo piled up on the ship, his expression gradually changed from gloomy to stunned.
"Seeing me appear, your face seems a little strange, son." Colin Hawke threw the cable towards Tommy and said with a smile.
Tommy took the cable and fixed it, and the two ships slowly moved side by side. Before the pedals were laid, Colin Hawke jumped from the KKS to Tommy's side.
"You haven't had time to go to Canada yet?" Tommy Hawke asked his father with a pleasant expression after he really saw the hills of cigarettes piled up on the boat.
As long as the goods are still on the ship and they are on the high seas, it doesn’t matter even if the coast guard anti-smuggling teams from the United States and Canada show up and surround them in full force. At worst, tell them that my father picked up a batch of cigarettes on the ship and is about to hand them over. Give it to them, or if they are in a bad mood and throw them all into the sea, they can only watch and dare to board the ship on the high seas where there is no law enforcement power to stop them, unless the coast guard decides to kill everyone and take away some cigarettes, otherwise Just in time to give Dad a chance to legally blackmail the government.
Colin Hawk shook his head: "According to the original plan, I should have arrived in Canada by now, but I still remember what I told you that night, you are still a child, Tommy, you can be unscrupulous before you go to college. And the premise of your unscrupulousness is that your father is by your side to take care of you, I can't let my son have a little problem when he is an unscrupulous child, so..."
"So you've been sailing out to sea and we've been around you like a Ronald Reagan **** on that ship, like a president's bodyguard, boy! F*ckYou, Colin, cut it short If it’s disgusting, you haven’t done anything since boarding the ship! But you ate the most food and drank the most wine!” Mr. Wilson with a full beard came over at this moment, strengthening the ship’s plank, and at the same time said to Tommy - Hawke interjected: "You are **** college material, Tommy, it's the first time I know that selling so many smuggled goods doesn't have to worry about going to jail. You know, I just stole a few tires from Rogers' house before." I sold it to a car repair shop, but the police came to my door, well done!"
"Members of the Hawke family have always been wise men, this is talent, Wilson!" Colin Hawke heard Wilson's praise to his son, and said proudly: "Tommy is exactly the same as me, remember, I used to be the person who knew the most words among you people, this is the genetic wisdom of the Hawk family, and it is endless, otherwise the union would not send me to continue to lead you after you lose your job."
The bald-headed Mr. Morin walked over with a whiskey bottle, staggering on the deck of the boat: "Shut up, Colin, the gap between your **** plan and Tommy's plan is like your ** The gap between the length and the length of my dick! The difference is as far as the Eiffel Tower! You even offered to let us go to the gate of the New York City Hall to sell smuggled cigarettes to the smokers who protested the increase in cigarette prices! Fuck! If according to the plan you said, the few of us, Wilson and his hapless relative are squatting in the single room of the New York Police Department to help the police commit suicide!"
When Maureen passed by Tommy, he didn't forget to pat Tommy on the shoulder: "Well done, boy of the Hawk family!"
Maureen took a sip of his drink, turned his head to look at Tommy, and shrugged: "Of course we won't go. We are poor people in America, and we are not **** idiots in America? Did I praise you just now, Tommy? I take it back." You didn’t have to ask such a mentally retarded question, obviously, you have to stay away from your father, and after only two **** minutes of contact with him, your IQ has already plummeted like a plane crash.”
"Really?" Tommy Hawk looked at his father in disbelief: "Won't you go to Canada? Mr. Morin and they would agree?"
Colin Hawk nodded with a smile and said: "Of course, no one wants to send themselves to prison. Maureen said, they are not idiots, not to mention that I am the major shareholder of this order, and only Thomas can treat me There are some threats from the decision-making, but that guy can only abstain from voting now, so any **** said by these minority shareholders does not need to be considered, and whoever objectes will throw his goods into the sea and let him swim to Canada for trading.”
"So, you can accept the low price to sell here..." Tommy felt at this moment that Alida must be protecting her family in heaven, and there was no better result than this.
Colin Hawke nodded following his son's words, looked around and said, "Yes, right here, and sell it to these three lucky Italians at the price you negotiated."
"Why, I am very grateful to you, Dad, for making this wise decision from the bottom of your heart, but why?" Tommy asked his father with unconcealed joy in his eyes.
His father actually withstood the temptation of huge amounts of money? Didn't go to Canada to make more money to bring Bethea back as soon as possible?
Colin Hawke shrugged, lowered his head in silence for a few seconds, then raised his head to look directly at his son, and said with a smile, "The Hawke family is going to have their first college student. Do you know that there is a college student on board this time?" He said that it seems to be a good university. I chatted with him about it, and he told me very seriously that if you don’t want your child to be treated as garbage in the university, it’s better not to cause trouble for him. He said My son is smart enough to come to Canada to trade safely on the high seas. The reason for doing so is that he will not violate any laws. I think this is the reason why I am not going to continue to St. John’s, Canada. Of course I have to adopt this. I don’t have any troublesome plans to make money. I can’t send myself and these idiot-like friends around me to a Canadian prison for the sake of risking a little more money. Let my hard-working and smart son be punished. Treat it like trash in college."
"Honestly, I didn't expect this to be the case... I thought about a lot of bad situations, worse, worst situations..." Tommy Hawke was a little uncomfortable after listening to Colin Hawke's words. Looking at the man in front of him fixedly, he didn't even know what to say at this moment.
He was already mentally prepared to accept the worst situation, and he had already determined in his heart that the worst situation would definitely happen, but now, he didn't have to worry.
At this moment, his father had an indifferent smile on his unshaven face, touching his head with a rough palm, and his eyes were gentle.
"Remember what I didn't finish when we came back from visiting Bethea? Tony interrupted me. He was afraid that I would accidentally say it and make you suspicious. Actually...I want to say, if your mother is still alive, she will Smart, you must have reminded me in time long ago, instead of letting me realize it after so long. I said to myself, Colin, what you should do now is not prepare a check for Tommy , not to bring back the banknotes for Bethea, but to find Tommy first and say to him: I'm sorry, son, I didn't think of you until you waited outside for so long, and now, Dad will take you home."
Under the boundless starry sky, Colin Hawk put his hands on Tommy's shoulders, gently pressed his forehead against his son's forehead, and said softly:
“I can’t just lose my son because I need money to bring back my daughter. Money is important, but family comes first.”
