Cosma Empire

After hanging up the phone, Donald sat on the chair and pulled his hair fiercely. The pain from his scalp could not cover up the helplessness and uncontrollable anger in his heart.

Selem put forward two conditions. As long as he can meet these two conditions, everything will return to calm, and someone will even stand up to take part of the responsibility. But these two conditions made him unacceptable, and he didn't even want to recall them.

The first request was that he had to call Mr. Dulin himself to admit that his blind arrogance had caused the social turmoil in Riodis City during this period, and begged Mr. Dulin's forgiveness.

The second requirement is that he must immediately submit his resignation letter to the state government, resign as the mayor of Odis, and then publicly apologize to the citizens, express remorse for what he has done, and then leave here forever.

As long as he fulfills these two requirements, within an hour after he completes these two requirements, all business operations in Odis City will resume, 270,000 jobs will reappear, and people will live and work in peace and contentment again. The businessmen who invest here and the members of the Odis City business group will continue to support the decree of the city hall.

But if Donald declined such "goodwill", Selem didn't say what he would do, but Donald knew very well that they would definitely try their best to get himself out of office, and even subject himself to some investigations.

He is not afraid of investigations, what he is afraid of is being ousted from office, which is crueler to a politician than killing him.

If you kill him, he may still leave behind some political thoughts and lines, continue to play his role in the political arena, and be constantly mentioned or even affirmed by the latecomers. His thoughts will continue until after a certain major political system reform , will gradually fade away. His body is dead, but his political life is still alive, and his family, his heirs and future generations will benefit from it.

But if he is kicked out, no matter what kind of work he has done, what kind of dedication he has made, what kind of outstanding political thoughts and vision he has had, even if all of these are right, they will be denied by people with a final word. Because he is a loser, a loser cannot have a mature political thought, this is an iron law.

He picked up the phone in pain and called his father who worked in the imperial capital. He had to ask his father for help. Although his father is just a very ordinary legal person who interprets the definition of justice and does not even have an impressive title, his special position is destined to make him quite lethal while being unknown. He is a double-edged sword that can hurt himself as well as others. When he needs to be used, the person who uses him may not care whether he can hurt himself.

Moreover, in the imperial capital, the core area of ​​the imperial political arena, the complexity of the political arena far exceeds that of other places. This is where the conflict between the new party and the old party is most acute. Every day, every moment,

Some people are counting other people. Those who can stop here, even if it is just a humble official, have a very high political quality.

Donald's father was not surprised to receive a call from his son. He had long seen numerous negative reports about the mayor of Odis in the imperial capital, and it was not too late for Donald to call him. He only told Donald one word, no, it was one word, and immediately gave Donald a feeling of being reborn from the ashes, as if all the fog in front of him had been lifted, the sun had come out, and the few dark clouds were about to disperse .

What did he say?

Only one word and two syllables!

"Cape!"

Because Donald's father has been in the political whirlpool of the imperial capital until now, he is more aware of the cruelty of politics. If his son is this material, he will definitely know what he is talking about. If he can't figure out what he wants to express, it means that Donald is not the material. He doesn't need to stand up again, just go with the flow. He can wait for the next generation to grow up and replace Donald to fulfill his further dream in the political arena.

Donald was very smart, he immediately realized that Doolin had made a foolish move this time, two of the seven photos were of the murderer and Solo together, which was tantamount to dragging the Capet family into trouble . His father's meaning was very clear. Taking advantage of Du Lin's opportunity this time, he completely dragged Capet into the quagmire, and then stood on the side of the Capet family without reservation. Let the Capet family and Du Lin fight, no matter who wins or loses, he will not be the one who loses the most.

He even had a chance to defeat Durin to get the real ruling power of Odis City, and at the same time, he was accepted by the Capet family. This will be his strongest support force in the political arena!

"So, I'll let them show the photos of the Capet family." Du Lin was sitting in the room talking on the phone with Kevin. Prosecutors, it is as difficult for a prosecutor to be promoted to the Attorney General as to be promoted to a lifelong justice through the law of the city court. But political matters are hard to say, sometimes you don’t need much personal ability, you just need to be nominated when forming a new cabinet, and an unknown person can become a minister.

Kevin's current task is to exercise, strengthen his business capabilities, and weave his network of contacts and interests in the Ministry of Justice. When he is nominated for the Minister of Justice one day, at least he will not be a one-man general. Move the entire Justice Department.

Kevin is now very enthusiastic about politics. He was talking to Du Lin this time to consider whether the seven photos that Du Lin threw out were too hasty. These photos not only hit Donald, but also involved the Capet family.

Du Lin continued: "The person responsible for implementing the plan is said to have disappeared. I can treat him as dead. If the Capet family does not intervene in this matter, they are lucky. Once they decide to intervene in this matter, they will It turns out that this is not a quagmire. It is a swamp, a man-eating swamp!"

The increasingly smooth exchange of information has allowed public opinion and public opinion to play a more important role in the political arena of the empire. If the Capet family intervenes, then the first object they need to face is not During, but those who want to "protect "The public opinion that Du Lin went to fight, as well as the accusations of many celebrities who fought for racial independence, and the raging public opinion.

No matter whether they can hand it over or not, they are destined to do the assassination of Du Lin. On the one hand, there are veteran nobles, and on the other hand, there are new officials from the "minority". Coupled with power and interests as condiments, this It's going to be a big meal, something people talk about and talk about for a whole year, maybe more.

As long as this accusation is established, there is no need for much evidence, and Magus, who is sharpening his knife beside him, will definitely raise his sharp knife and slash at the Capet family.

A group of nobles from the "old age" actually assassinated officials from the new era for profit? Who gave them such courage to trample on the laws of the empire, is it God?

Once a series of investigations are launched, not only will Donald not benefit from it, but it will get deeper and deeper. It is absolutely impossible that only Donald and the Capet family will die in the end, and more people will be implicated.

There is a saying that goes a lot, the more you are on your own side, the more ruthless you will be when you attack your own people. Magus, who was born as a great nobleman of the empire, has a clearer understanding of nobles than Dulin and most people in society. These parasites that only destroy but not build can only make the country weaker and weaker. Don't ever expect this group of vampires to feed their blood back to the empire!

Du Lin has arranged a lot of backhands to fight against these two forces. He is now without an official and a light body. Without the burden of the mayor, he is invincible.

After Du Lin's explanation, some things that Kevin couldn't figure out suddenly became clear. He is good at playing with the law, but he doesn't have a thorough understanding of politics.

"Okay, since you said you've got it sorted, I'll let it go. Tell me, what's so fun about the West? I've heard women in the West are hot and open, is that true? ", after the three sentences were finished, Kevin relapsed and talked about pleasure again.

Du Lin replied with a smile: "If you don't mind discussing the origin of life with those women who are covered in dust and dirt and can rub dirt with their fingers, I think this place may be more suitable for you to live in."

"Sounds very interesting. I also heard that you will communicate with body fluids while riding a horse on horseback? It's really exciting to ride a horse. After I hand over the work here, I will go to your side to play In a few days, you have to arrange this for me..."

After hanging up the phone, Du Lin was also a little confused. Is it also a feature of this side to gallop on horseback while letting the spirit and flesh overlap to achieve the sublimation of the soul?

After more than ten days of dissemination and precipitation, Du Lin's notoriety finally spread completely in the western world. The strange thing is that the local government didn't come to trouble him, as if he had never heard of Du Lin. . This strange phenomenon made Du Lin feel that it might be Memnon or someone else.

At such a special juncture, Garfield came to the west.

He himself was the largest steel supplier in Illian, and later followed in the footsteps of Durin and became the largest steel supplier in the city of Odis. With the piece of land he took, it can now be said to be one of the few in the Empire Tower. There are people.

In terms of working capital alone, he has nearly 20 million deposits in the bank. With the addition of those real estate industries, his wealth has swelled to 60 to 70 million! If he worked harder, he might be able to form a small consortium with himself as the core.

The reason why Garfield came to the west this time is also because he heard that Doolin won an iron mine immediately after he went to the west to develop. His business will never be able to do without these iron ores. , He is also a person who knows how to be grateful—especially after Luke was found to have committed suicide during his sentence, and after Juan committed suicide by jumping off a building, he knows what gratitude is.

If he doesn't find more opportunities to repay Du Lin, he may not be able to sleep well at night.

"As soon as I heard that you took down an iron mine, I thought that my good life was finally coming. I don't need to go around to find someone to get the ore through connections. You helped me again, Doolin!", Garfield expressed He looked very grateful, as if he was not here to repay his favor, but to thank Durin for providing him with high-quality ore.

Du Lin was well aware of his performance, and he took Garfield around the mining area, "The iron ore here contains fifty-three percent iron, a dry sample, and the mining volume is average. If you want to entrust this matter to me, it seems that I have to take down a few more iron mines!"

Along the way, Garfield was very concerned about the quality of the iron mine in Dooling, and he even read some reports by himself. Although it is said to be a repayment for Du Lin's help to him in the past two years, this kind of repayment should not be based on the fact that he has suffered a complete loss. Such a repayment will only quickly shatter the relationship between the two people. Reasonable transactions and part of the profits are the real rewards, at least Garfield thinks so.

"The content is good. I can offer a price of 8 yuan per ton of raw ore, and unlimited sales are available!" Garfield is definitely a half-expert in this regard. According to the data provided by Du Lin, it takes about five to six tons of ore to refine one ton of base steel. Now the empire's infrastructure construction in various places has led to rising steel prices, followed by rising raw materials. The price of a ton of steel is between 80 and 120 yuan.

The ore cost of about 40 yuan plus the expenses and losses caused by transportation and steelmaking, the ore leaves from Dulin and becomes steel ingots for sale. Garfield's own profit is only a few yuan to a dozen yuan. Du Lin gave up a lot of his own profits.

Du Lin was also considered a semi-expert. He knew that this offer was much higher than the market price, but he didn't say anything. This was Garfield's kindness, and he had no reason to refuse.

The two quickly chatted about the field of minerals in the west, and Garfield also had some understanding of the affairs here.

"It's not an easy task if you want to find a mineral deposit by yourself." After returning to the room, the two sat down and Garfield talked about this matter, "At present, there are places where there may be a mineral deposit in the west. It has been privatized. As for those places that have not been privatized, there may not be any mines. Many people come to the west to open mines with a kind of gambling nature. If they win the bet, they will get rich immediately. return."

"I've seen a lot of speculators commit suicide after failing, not only putting their own money in it, but also borrowing money from other people."

"It takes about 800,000 to 2 million yuan to mine on a piece of land from buying the land to thoroughly exploring all the places. That's why those big mine owners are happy to buy mines discovered by others, rather than go to mine by themselves. The reason for looking for mine deposits. Because they can’t afford to lose. One failure is very likely to turn their income into steam for one or two years or two or three years. Compared with spending two or three million more to buy a mine, obviously the latter More cost-effective!"
