258. To recall the Speaker

Donnie had initially intended to gradually negotiate with Arman Louis during the construction of Trident Shipyard.

After all, Arman Louis was deeply entrenched in New Jersey, and his influence was immense. Unless absolutely necessary, Donnie still felt it best to coexist peacefully with the other party.

What Donnie hadn't anticipated was receiving a call from Damai James the day after the party ended.

Today in the assembly, Arman Louis directly proposed a bill to increase tax collection on the gambling industry, including the Surf Hotel.

"What is Arman Louis thinking, acting so hastily?"

Alice asked Donnie, somewhat puzzled.

After a moment of contemplation, Donnie said, "He must be feeling the urgency. Once Trident Shipyard starts construction, we won't be able to abandon the industry, so Arman Louis is in such a hurry to see our stance!"

Alice mused, "What's the State Assembly's view on this? Are they in favor of or against Arman Louis's suggestion?"
