Cosma Empire

Chapter 678 I need a pot

At the same time, local and foreign media focused their attention on the west. A mine owner named Federer took the lead to stand up. He decided to announce a series of problems in the west of the empire to the whole society, which made the west mine very passive. . Before that, they had already suffered a series of attacks, and with the accusations that did not exist at all, the remaining four executive committee members were already in a state of desperation. Now Federer's betrayal made their situation even more dangerous. The phenomenon of slavery in the west is to blame.

The cabinet's silence and inaction seem to be a little more certain. Perhaps the cabinet hopes to throw the moral burden on the West Mining Association through such a press conference. There is no better way to deal with it.

As for how it will end later, this is definitely not something that can make people happy.

The room was filled with smoke, and four people who looked extraordinary were sitting or standing, with cigarettes in their hands, and the ashtrays beside them were also full of cigarette butts. It had been six hours, and they still hadn’t figured out how to let them go. Ways to get through this crisis safely.

There are two biggest crises for them. The first is the unspoken rules of the western mining industry that Federer will disclose tomorrow. The most terrible thing in this is the use of slaves. It is well known that cheap slaves are used to mine in the west. The extremely low price of slaves can minimize the cost of mining, a high-risk industry. No one cares about whether the environment in the mine will cause some people to break out of sudden diseases and die, and they don't need to pay them high salaries. They only need to fill their stomachs, and they can continuously transfer ore from the mine. sent out of the cave.

All mine owners use slaves, which has almost become a standard in the mining industry. No one has ever questioned whether the use of slaves, including the existence of slavery, complies with moral and legal requirements. From top to bottom, from the mine owners to the state government, everyone agrees with this system.

Not only is the cost low, but there will be no major accidents, this is the perfect choice.

But it is this perfect choice that now pushes the Western Mining Association into the abyss. Those guys who have nothing to do with the West or mining and can stand on the moral high ground in this matter will tear them apart. Just like when they heard that the managers of some orphanages let the children do some skilled work, their indignation, curse and condemnation of those scumbags can show their social responsibility without having to bear extra costs .

Some of those scumbags died, some went to prison, and now the situation is just reversed, this may be one of their fate.

Public opinion will form a huge storm and tear them all to shreds. In order to calm the anger from inside and outside the empire, the cabinet will definitely deal with some people severely.

Dealing with those mine owners will definitely not have any deterrent effect, and it will not reflect the importance the empire attaches to these issues. Only by dealing with the main personnel of an organization with huge influence like the West Mine Society, can everyone boil over. The moral orgasm sprayed from the nostrils gradually subsided.

The second crisis came from within the Western Mining Association. If it was only the existence of slavery in the west, their fate would definitely not be good, but it would definitely not be called miserable. They did not formulate such rules, nor did they maintain such rules. They are just representatives of an industry, and punishments that are severe enough but not involving life safety are enough to show the determination of the imperial legal system.

But once the problem arises, and some people in the West Mining Association shake up and cause more scandals, it may really kill them.

Like that damn guy Federer, he's the first, and he's unlikely to be the last, there's always going to be someone trying to save themselves when this big ship is about to go silent. People outside may not know what the Western Mining Association has done in the west these years, but the members of the Western Mining Association know it very well. They used various means to manipulate the price of ore in the west, and through joining forces with some illegal armed forces, they opened up a bright avenue for the entry of big capitalists.

In addition, they are also suspected of infiltrating and buying government officials, forging documents and concealing business income.

Any one of these illegal things alone will not kill them, but if they are all put together and placed in the sun to accept the judgment of the society, they will not live until the end of this year.

"Is there a way to contact Federer?" An old man with silver-gray hair in his sixties took a deep puff of the cigarette in his hand and said while puffing smoke: "It is best to have a private talk with Federer and let him It is a good thing for him and us not to expose more inside stories. As long as he can agree, I believe many people will still stand by our side."

Another flaxen-haired, depressed middle-aged man shook his head, grabbed the bottle beside him and took a big gulp, "Federer doesn't seem to be in the west now, he may be hiding in order to detonate this bomb. I really don’t understand what good he does for him, we will be unlucky, all organizations involved in the mining industry will be unlucky as well as individuals, and all mining industries will face scrutiny, what is he doing this for?”, he was a little puzzled, This is also a point that everyone can't figure out.

The situation is clearly moving in a bright direction. The thugs of the Freedom Front have been wiped out, and the mining trade in the west has begun to resume. At this time, Federer insists on picking it out to make trouble?

Another guy with pale blond hair frowned and asked, "Could it be related to the previous attack? Someone is targeting our Western Mining Association. Federer may be bought by them. As long as we fall, they will be able to grasp it." Control of the West?"

The old man with silver-gray hair nodded, "It is possible that the enemies we face are not only Memnon, but also those big capitalists, and the enemies are among them. But we are not sure whether it is Who did it, do you think Jindis and Olivier are also part of them?"

This question made the other three people fall into deep thought. The reason why they opposed the big capitalists joining the West Mine Association and had confrontation was that these big capitalists were too strong. If they were alone, the West Mine would not be afraid of them. But if they are accepted into the Western Mining Association, these powerful capital forces will have a place to give full play to their advantages. They will soon replace the executive committee through a series of means and become the new managers of the Western Mine Association.

This was also the last thing the executive committee members wanted to see, so they adopted a group confrontation method to constantly trouble these people, while maintaining a certain degree of cooperation, and not giving them a chance to seize the dominance of the Western Mining Association. If these people are really united for some reason, it is highly likely that this is what they did.

"Do you think... Do you think Dulin will also have a share? That guy has had irreconcilable conflicts with us since he came to the West, and I personally think that the assassination of the other executive committee members has a lot to do with Dulin. It is even possible that Du Lin ordered his subordinates to do it, is there any way to find a way to break the situation from Du Lin?"

The room suddenly fell into silence. After this period of confrontation, they have discovered that Du Lin is a very troublesome young man. He is like a hedgehog or wild man, with thorns all over his body. A collision that was full of hostility would poke holes all over his body.

The silence lasted for ten minutes, and the person who hadn't spoken all this time finally spoke, "The current situation is very unfavorable to us, and we don't have the means to reverse the current situation, so I have a proposal..." He closed his mouth After looking at the other three people, he lowered his voice slightly and said, "Before the situation deteriorates completely, transfer property and family members, if possible... let's leave the empire."

"It's not that I'm too pessimistic, but this time things came too violently. It's only been three months since Hendry and that idiot were assassinated. Gentlemen, it took us more than ten years to be very It was difficult to hold the control of the west in our hands, and we paid a lot for this. But now, the enemy is too strong, and we can't stop them from greedy for the power in our hands. I think Durin may be The fuse, but those big capitalists should not be underestimated."

"Once all things are clear, what we have is not the dawn, but a bloody dagger. While we still have this time and opportunity, go, gentlemen, leave this country, go to the Commonwealth or Farther away. With the wealth we have now, it is enough for us to quickly re-emerge anywhere!"

When this small meeting that was destined to have no good results ended, the guy who spoke last went back to his villa by car. His private security guards were everywhere in the villa, and these people watched nervously for any troubles around them. It is very strange that there is no one who is not a security guard to greet him in the villa. His wife, children, and grandchildren are all gone, which makes the villa more like an office than a home.

He walked into the study and prevented the security guards from following in. After locking the door, he sat on a chair, staring at the dusk outside the window for a long time without saying a word. After about ten minutes, he pursed his lips, haggardly picked up the phone, and dialed a number.

"Mr. Du Lin, I have told others what you need me to say according to your request. When will my family be free?" His hands were trembling. After returning from the West Mine Meeting the day before yesterday, he found the entire villa There was no one there, everyone disappeared, and then Du Lin called him and told him what to do so that his family could see a new round of the sun every day.

His heart is bleeding!
