The Adventures Of Mr. Tea

摘要

As his SUV ventured deeper into the remote northeast corner of India known as Chicken's Neck, Rodrick Markus noticed his security force multiply. A local guide explained that this was "hard-core" Third World, the sort of place where "at any moment it can erupt into something insane." More SUVs arrived, and when the convoy finally pulled up to an estate, 40 armed men poured out of the vehicles and led him inside. With his signature all-black ensemble-his suit, shirt and pocket square are always coordinated-and with slicked-back hair, manicured 5 o'clock shadow and Mykita glasses, Markus looked like a nuclear arms dealer.
