Cosma Empire

Chapter 374 Attitude [2]

"The kid went to see Powers after driving here, sir." Magus's butler stood obediently by the door. At this time, Magus was sitting by the window to borrow the light from outside. looking at the book.

After a long while, he lowered his head, and his eyes shot out from the gap between the glasses and his forehead, and landed on the butler's face. Because of this movement of raising his eyes, his forehead was wrinkled, and at the same time, the skin on both sides of his cheeks was pulled upwards. At this moment, he looked harsh and mean, and his gaze was even more like a knife.

"You shouldn't be so rude. Everyone has the right to choose. We can't force others to accept our ideas. It used to be like this, and it's like this now!" After speaking, Magus raised his head, gently His eyes converged on the writing through the lens. He turned over one and changed his posture, "We have the power to choose, and so do others! This is a new era!"

He closed his mouth, the butler silently retreated, and carefully closed the door of the study.

Maggs took off his eyes and took a deep breath, looking out the window at the green and vibrant world with deep and distant eyes.

It's just that he may not be clear that the meeting between Durin and Powers did not go as smoothly as Kevin expected, or that in Powers' view, Durin has no pivotal value.

Du Lin waited for more than twenty minutes before Powers appeared in his sight with a blank face. The old man didn't apologize or exchange greetings, but asked someone to pour a cup of scented tea for Du Lin. He sat directly on the sofa opposite Du Lin, and crossed his legs, "Mayor Du Lin, my housekeeper said you want to see me, do you have something important to tell me?"

This sentence is equivalent to driving people away in the social process. If you can’t ask for a meeting without important things, then the world may be polarized. One side is nothing, and the other side is big things.

Powers knew Du Lin's reason for coming, he just wanted to weigh himself and sell himself for a good price. If During hadn't gone to Magus before, maybe Powers would be a little happier than now. But when he knew that the first place Durin went to was Magus's house, it was difficult for him to develop a good impression of Durin.

Magus held him for twelve years,

And he will continue to suppress him for four years. Although strictly speaking, there is no contradiction between the two, but it takes sixteen years to be a subordinate of a person and there is no room for resistance. It's a happy thing. Coupled with the fact that Magus and Powers always have some difficult ideas to reconcile, and Magus intends to push Harry to the top, their relationship is worse than people imagined.

The reason why Powers was chosen as the third person in the party, that is, the party whip, was because of his identity. He was not from a noble family, nor from a merchant's family, but just an ordinary citizen of the empire. It's just that he was lucky, and climbed all the way to the position of assistant to the consul, and his own ability is also very outstanding, and he had a few encounters with Magus at that time. He was also the first batch of members to join the new party, so a person like him was needed to reconcile the contradictions among members of different backgrounds in the party.

It can also be regarded as setting an example for those non-noble party members. Look, as long as you do well, you can also become one of the important members of the new party.

However, he has been sitting in this position for sixteen years. He has been sitting in this position since he was fifty-three years old, and he will soon be seventy years old. There is not even a glimmer of light. How could he be willing? The more capable a person is, the greater his ambition will be. If Powers was a mediocre person, he might be satisfied with the current situation and hope to continue, but he is not, so the conflict with Magus has become inevitable.

In his opinion, Durin is the least important part of Mangla's explosive protest and the upcoming hearing. The real battle has actually started long ago. From the moment Mangla's mayor lodged his protest, he has Started a fight with Magus in an invisible place. From the beginning to the end, it didn't have much to do with Du Lin, even if he wanted to intervene, he had no room to intervene.

In addition, this guy went to Magus first, so Powers didn't like him very much.

Fortunately, Du Lin prepared the ladder for himself. He lifted the suitcase in his hand, put it on the table and opened it, and took out two beautifully wrapped gift boxes from it, "These are some special products from my hometown. I hope you I can like it."

"Special products?" Powers nodded noncommittally. He doesn't like these special products or anything else. At his level, money and everything related to money can't impress him. Only power is what he needs and wants most. If it can't bring direct benefits to him, even the best things are worthless garbage in his opinion.

If he doesn't like it, he doesn't like it, but in his family there is a wife who prefers specialties from various places, so he didn't refuse, just like countless times before.

After accepting a gift, Powers' attitude finally improved a lot. He put down his crossed legs, went to a piece of paradise, and signaled to Du Lin that he could take one. After Du Lin refused, he cut it off. He opened the seal of Paradise and put it in his mouth, "Okay, tell me what's the matter with you?"

"About the hearing, I would like to ask you..."

Ten minutes later, Du Lin left Powers' home. After walking out of a section of the heavily guarded road, he directly asked for a taxi and returned to the villa where Kevin lived. The multi-piece jacket was thrown on the sand, revealing his sweat-soaked back.

The weather is a bit too hot here, and Kevin didn't go out at home. He was wearing a homely T-shirt, beach pants, and a pair of sandals. He was lying on the sand watching the latest tape, produced by Empire Star Media Company Tape, from time to time I was amused by those third-rate funny plots.

"This is really interesting. Who wrote the script? He is definitely a talent!" Kevin held a large glass of ice juice in his hand, and pieces of deformed ice cubes loomed in the juice. As if aware of Du Lin's gaze, Kevin ordered the maid to make a glass of iced juice for Du Lin, and then sat upright a little bit, "How is it? Have you gained anything this morning?"

Du Lin nodded, sat on the sofa, and immediately breathed a sigh of relief. The sand is made of a whole piece of cowhide, and it seems to be filled with some slightly icy ice water. After sitting on it in this hot summer, the anger all over the body is almost dissipated in an instant. He sighed, "Powers can't beat Magus, the next leader must be Harry." Halfway through speaking, he took a huge cup with at least one liter from the maid , all kinds of tropical fruit juices and ice cubes are inextricably mixed together, and you will shout out when you take a sip.

Kevin was very curious. He sat cross-legged on the sand, facing Du Lin, and asked, "How can you be sure of this? Maybe Powers can defeat Magus?"

Du Lin shook his head and said: "It's actually very simple. You can tell the difference between the two people's mind and courage from their attitudes. Let me talk about Powers first. He is too careful. He has been testing me. , He pretended to be impatient and didn’t like my appearance, just wanted to know if I was setting him up. Such a person can be conservative, but it is difficult to develop and improve.”

This is Du Lin's perception of Powers. Within a few minutes after seeing Powers, he realized that all of Powers' performances were actually illusions. He was testing himself for the real purpose of meeting him. Needless to say, he must have suspected that he and Muggs had conspired to bully him, so he showed that appearance.

The biggest difference between him and Magus is that he is too cautious, while Magus is very confident.

The completely different performances of the two people represent the inner attitudes of the two at this time, one is questioning, and the other is firmly affirming. Although self-confidence does not necessarily mean success in many cases, but the successful person must have self-confidence.

Moreover, Magus has a broad view of the overall situation. If such a person can be brought down by Powers, it can only be said that Powers is hiding too deeply.

After Du Lin's constant explanations, Kevin finally understood. He shrugged his shoulders indifferently, "You can decide for yourself. If you need my help, just ask. After all, you have paid for it, haven't you?"

"Oh, by the way, I almost forgot, there is something I have to tell you, and you will definitely like to hear it!" Kevin smiled cheerfully or rather meanly, "The DreamWorks case is officially over today. , They fined and confiscated all the property of the person involved in the case. I believe that many stockholders will thank your upstart friend who mines. Fraudulent stockholders."

"Those stockholders staged an unexpected commotion in court when you visited Magus and Powers. It's a pity that you didn't see it with your own eyes..."

Any case raised to the national level can never be concluded in a very short period of time. There are many procedures that need to be carried out after the case is closed on the surface. This is a very complicated process of verification and correction. Until today, almost seven or eight months later, the case finally came to an end.

Immediately afterwards, another question was extended, and only "recovered" one-tenth of the amount, who should pay the compensation?

So in the court, the judge read out the compensation plan given by the Ministry of Justice, which immediately caused riots in the court. They planned to pay the money to those families who had difficulties in life and urgently needed money. As for the other part... wait until the rest of the money is recovered before paying.

This was originally a very proper way to deal with it, but there was a small problem in it.
