America 1919

Robert quickly walked to the guard's position and dialed Donnie's study.

"Everything is my arrangement, just follow through with it!" Donnie said somewhat irritably on the phone.

He had just called Walker, and although Walker, Maholi, and others hadn't been in contact with radium products, people around them had.

Fortunately, the radiation infectivity of this stuff isn't that strong; otherwise, Donnie suspects that without Eben Byers' incident, the entire United States might fall into a deep abyss!

Donnie told Walker about his understanding of radium, which shocked Walker and made him start an investigation similar to Donnie's immediately.

This is the benefit of trusted people; even though they haven't gotten any evidence from you, only your words, they are willing to believe you!

In a temporarily constructed house, Robert harshly washed his body under the faucet, then put on new clothes and left the room to get in the car waiting outside, directly heading to the main building at Block Manor!

Without any delay, Robert quickly walked up to Donnie's study.

Seeing Donnie without any abnormality, Robert finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"You scared me; I thought something serious had happened to you!"

Donnie looked at Robert sitting opposite him and said, "It's indeed a big issue, just not me!"

Robert asked, "Is it about the radium product?"

Randolph Roman had also routinely asked Donnie whether he had ever used any products containing radium!

"That's correct!" Donnie nodded, "Now you need to immediately contact Stanford University's School of Medicine, California Institute of Technology's School of Chemical Engineering, and MIT. Organize a joint laboratory to research all radium products currently on the market, studying the various harms of radium to human health, and simultaneously collaborate with MIT to develop instruments for detecting nuclear radiation!"

Donnie had just asked Ozzy Barber to investigate and concluded that there were currently no instruments to detect nuclear radiation across America and even the world. What Donnie didn't know was that these instruments had to wait until the forties to be invented by Patrick from the United States.

This is the first matter Donnie saw in this event that could benefit him.

Once the research on the damage radium elements do to the human body is made public, it will surely cause a huge stir across America. Donnie believes everyone will be just as afraid for their lives as he is!

Once this thing is researched, there is no worry about sales, and with the deepening of nuclear research, this kind of instrument will definitely be widely used in various fields worldwide.

Without any hesitation, Robert said, "I understand, I will go arrange this matter now."

Donnie reminded, "Remember not to handle anything related to radium products yourself, delegate these tasks to your subordinates. This is not a joke; it's a serious matter!"

Robert nodded, "Understood, just from your current state, I can tell the seriousness of this issue!"

Donnie nodded slightly, "Keep safe outside! Also, do an investigation around yourself and keep everyone who've been in contact with radium products away!"

Robert replied, "Understood!"

"Lastly!" Donnie told Robert, "Announce on behalf of Venus Bank that I'm not seeing any guests recently."

Radium products are high-value items now, meaning ordinary people don't easily access them, yet Donnie mostly meets non-ordinary people.

Robert expressed concern, "If that's the case, it will undoubtedly arouse some outside speculation!"

Donnie said solemnly, "Let them speculate; survival is the most important thing right now!"

"Alright!" Robert once again felt the danger of radium products!

.

Actually, there's no need for Robert to announce it externally; many people already knew about Donnie's affairs in New York. Therefore, many New York aristocrats would visit Donnie daily.

But now, all these individuals received phone call notifications from Donnie's secretariat, postponing all interactions with Donnie. Some who didn't receive calls came to Block Manor and were surprised by the strict defense stance there.

At this moment, the news Robert announced spread among these people.

In an instant, various rumors about Donnie circulated in New York.

Among them, the most popular saying was that Donnie suddenly fell seriously ill and was now near his end!

As this rumor spread, the phone at Donnie's secretariat rang off the hook.

Various major media outlets, newspaper agencies, and collaborative partners all wanted to know Donnie's status.

They received a uniform response: Mr. Donnie Block feels that he has been focusing too much on work over the years, so he wants to take a holiday to spend quality time with his family!

Such an answer, of course, wasn't believed!

Thus, various situations unfolded.

ABC, Sinclair Oil, Trident Shipyard, Apollo Chain, United Artists, and other publicly listed companies under the New Jersey Consortium experienced rare declines!

At this moment, Donnie had just hung up Jack Morgan's phone call.

The other party had also inquired about Donnie's health condition immediately upon hearing this rumor!
