Cosma Empire

Natalie's departure really made Du Lin's work busy. While he was thinking about who should take over Natalie's shift, he was dealing with work that he didn't need to deal with. He doesn't have much time to pay attention to things other than Odis, but outside of Odis, something that has not affected ordinary people but changed an industry is quietly erupting-killing!

Killing itself is not a trivial matter, and the reason why it can go quietly is that these killings are often out of people's sight, never reported, and no one spreads them outside. Occasionally a drunk or two would talk about it, and would soon sober up and shut up on the subject.

After being trained by Stein Ein, the fifteen wine merchants who have obtained the patent authorized by Doolin have begun to use distillation and purification to produce high-strength alcohol. At the same time, they have also begun to brew bootleg alcohol around their sphere of influence No matter whether the distillation purification technology is used or not, as long as it is an unlicensed bootlegging workshop, it is within the scope of their cleanup.

In just one week, the entire bootlegging industry was filled with a strong smell of blood. A large number of workshops disappeared overnight, and some were unwilling to give up their current business, but they all disappeared.

This is what Du Lin hoped for. He hoped that someone would replace him to rectify the entire industry and maintain the purity and system of the industry. The rules he set for these fifteen companies would also become the norms of the entire industry. rule. An orderly industry can make far more money than a disorderly industry, and at the same time the risk will be minimized.

This kind of rule should not only play a role in the brewing of high-alcohol wine, but also allow it to gradually spread to the field of low-alcohol wine. Each region should have a workshop that can brew high-alcohol wine according to Durin's "ideal plan". , Of course, these are our own people. There are also three workshops that can brew low-alcohol wine. After all, the market is huge. It is impossible for Du Lin and the people authorized by him to swallow it all at once. They will firmly control it by means of cooperation in acquisition, investment, and shareholding. The source of most areas.

How to monopolize an industry?

If you can pinch the source, you will be able to monopolize the industry.

Just like the George family's monopoly on "news events", like those giants in the Dooling Dreamland who have control over the resources and sources of the entire industry.

Now, they've done some of it, and they're still working on the part that wasn't done.

Of course, it is impossible for all wars to be one-sided. During the Great Patriotic War, the Federation had once reached the city of Otis, and it was only less than two hundred kilometers away from destroying the core of the empire and declaring the demise of an empire. However, these few hours' journey has become a desperate road that the federal people may suffer for centuries. The Imperial Army tore apart the Federal Army's supply lines in an almost suicidal attack. Facing the anger and despair of the imminent destruction of the country, the Imperial Army had gone mad.

They surrounded the main force of the federal army within a radius of about 50 kilometers around the city of Odis, and held on so that they could not find any supplies, and finally forced the federal government to come to the negotiating table-the federal government was not for the lives of those soldiers. Worried, what they were worried about was that once the soldiers died, the government would need to pay sky-high pensions, which might drag down the federal government's finances, so they compromised.

So the empire got back all the invaded lands, and the Federation also found face for itself-tariff rights.

This war in the bootlegging industry is actually the same. During the course of the war, the heads of some authorized enterprises, families, and workshops have been assassinated more than once. The children in the class sang the sounds of nature for them. This has also intensified the fighting between each other, which has already made some people feel dissatisfied.

"He's messing around a bit, and this 'war' should be stopped immediately, so that this dishonorable war can only discredit us.", in a high-level meeting within the new party,

Powers called Doolin's name, he glanced at Magus, and Magus smiled at him, this smile made Powers itch, "According to statistics from various places, so far there have been more than Seven thousand people have died in this industrial war. We are civilized people, gentlemen, please take note."

Powers' expression is very serious, which fits the image of his party whip. As the party whip of the ruling party, he still has a lot of power. He can not only supervise the voting of the Imperial Parliament, but also interfere with some disciplines within the party. .

Although Du Lin said that the patent belonged to someone else, he was only authorized by the patent owner to be in charge of the patent, but who here is not an old fox who has been immersed in politics for a long time, how could he not know about the so-called patent owner, It was just a firewall he placed in front of him. In case something happened to this patent, he was able to shirk his responsibility completely. As for the authorization fee, it was also transferred to the account of the "licensor", and it had nothing to do with him.

But this matter was indeed not done well, and the private killings of those people could hardly be covered up. It is said that a winemaking workshop with a history of more than 30 years in Barto was destroyed by an authorized capitalist. A group of desperadoes actually planted explosives in the capitalist's factory, causing dozens of casualties. Although the caliber of external publicity has been unified and handled according to safety incidents, this is a bad sign.

When these people who were excluded from the industry by Du Lin finally no longer choose to remain silent and choose to explode, many social problems will arise. Citizens will lose their sense of security, and thus have a bad impression of the local responsible political party, which will affect the image of the new party in the minds of the imperial public.

As for whether Powers used Ryan's idea to hit Magus or Harry, only he knew.

After Powers finished his speech, there were some noisy discussions in the conference hall. Some people have long disliked Duhring. At the same time, the most interesting thing that dislikes Duhring is not those politicians of noble or business origin. , but politicians of civilian origin. They are the ones who have the biggest opinions on Du Lin, and they are also the group of people who resist Du Lin the most.

The thinking of this group of people is actually very simple. They have achieved their current status through their own efforts, and even sold their personality and dignity. For the power in their hands, they have experienced pain and suffering that many people cannot bear, and finally they succeeded. . They have shown the world and the empire the great power of the imperial dream in them. Each of them is an elite in society and a leader.

Among them are many ordinary high-achieving students from the Imperial Royal Academy, but now, a guy who has never been to school and is a smuggler has actually gained the attention of Magus, who is richer, more powerful, and more promising than them. How could they accept all this?

It would be fine if Du Lin came from aristocrats, even the fallen nobles would not say anything, this is the son of a farmer riding a horse, a guy who should be working in the fields with muddy feet, and he is about to ride on his horse. Their heads are up, if they can accept Du Lin, how can they be worthy of their bitterness and dedication for more than ten years or even decades?

Therefore, it is not the private thought of Powers or a certain person to make Duhring bad. It is the common thought of some people who are enough to represent a class.

The discussion continued for a while, and Magus took a sip from his teacup, then put it down again. The sound of the base of the teacup hitting the saucer silenced the entire conference hall. Muggs nodded to everyone with a smile, "I would like to share my opinion on the opinions expressed by Mr. Powers just now."

He leaned back on the back of the chair, and put the pen in his hand on the edge of the table, "Let me ask you first, do these people's actions have anything to do with Mr. Dulin?" He paused for a moment, as if Fearing that everyone would not understand, he asked further: "Did Mr. Du Lin instruct these companies and families to attack those illegal underground workshops?" My understanding is limited to Powers' dictation, and the ghost knows whether Du Lin has expressed his attitude and opinions in it.

They don't know the real situation, so naturally they can't talk nonsense. It doesn't matter if they call Duhring the only bad guy in the world in private, but in public political occasions, any subjective statement must be thought about several times It can only be said later. For something like this that I don't even know the real situation, it is even more impossible to express my own opinions and guesses.

"As far as I know, this is a market cleaning campaign initiated by these people independently, and I have reservations about Mr. Powers' opinion here." He fiddled with the pen on the table, lowered his head, and stared at The pen rolling on the fingertips continued: "Since the promulgation of the first alcohol prohibition, who of you can tell me how many moonshine workshops have been reduced in the empire every year because of your administration, and who can tell me the transportation and sales market of bootleg liquor? How much has it shrunk?"

His tone was filled with a hint of disappointment, "You can't answer me, because under your management and supervision, the number of unlicensed breweries is doubling every year, and the market for the transportation and sale of bootleg wine Hot even I know there are several bars at the end of Empire Avenue that don't have liquor licenses."

"Is it because our supervision is not in place? Or is it because there is no means of punishment?" Magus shook his head, "No, we have improved and updated many legal details for the prohibition of alcohol, but you can't let these people stop their crimes behavior, but made them even more crazy to make high-alcohol, who can tell me why?"
