When Liu Wei took out his cigar, Scott went to get the Marlboro cigarette on his desk. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

A Cohiba cigar was worth five hundred dollars, and Scott's acceptance was tantamount to an expensive gift. Besides, Cuban cigars on the American market are all smuggled in, and if they get out, it must be a big scandal, and the most important thing Scott should pay attention to now is to avoid the scandal.

"Your Excellency, I heard that your voice in the Republican Party is not very high." Liu Wei lit a cigar, "Several other candidates have higher support than you. ”

"Mr. Liu, you're not here to taunt me, are you?" Scott was a little upset because Liu Wei was telling the truth.

"Of course not, I'm here to help you." Liu Wei paused slightly, "As long as the governor nods, I can get others out of the race." ”

"You ......" Scott was startled and immediately said, "You get me out of here, this is the American political axe agency, and ...... will never be allowed"

"Your Excellency, do you really want me to leave right away?" Liu Wei showed a murderous image.

Scott was stunned for a moment, as if he was shocked by Liu Wei.

"Of course, we can also use a more tactful way to get the governor to get the Republican nominee and even become the next owner of the White House."

"What euphemism?"

"What does it take to win the nomination, and what does it take to win the election?"

Scott looked at Liu Wei and raised his awareness of the young man.

"It's nothing more than the will of the people." Liu Wei smiled and said, "For this reason, the governor must hope to make achievements in the economic construction and social management of Nevada, and build this state located in the desert with a population of less than three million into a rich and peaceful Eden." ”

Scott was stunned for a moment, then shook his head with a wry smile.

Nevada is indeed so desolate that there is not a single city with a high reputation other than Las Vegas, and even many Americans don't know where Nevada is.

For Scott, who was born here, it was a stubborn disease, or a congenital deficiency, in his political life.

"There are two things I can do to help the governor gain prestige."

"What two things?" Scott extinguished the cigarette butt.

"The first is to clean up social order and make crime disappear from Nevada. Of course, I can't do it alone, and I need the governor's cooperation and support. ”

Scott looked at Liu Wei, walked to the desk, pressed a switch, and walked over.

Liu Wei knew that it was the switch of the voice recorder.

Because Scott was often in his office discussing administrative matters with state officials, a voice recorder was installed to back up administrative files.

"What Mr. Liu is talking about is the unified operation of the gaming industry in Las Vegas and Reno?"

"It's not just the gambling industry, but there are other industries that are prone to crime."

Scott frowned and said, "I'm afraid Mr. Liu is bragging, right?" ”

"Betola is the best proof of this, as well as Reno's Mexican gangs and those drug dealers who have only disappeared from Las Vegas in recent days."

Scott was stunned for a moment and immediately asked, "These things are all related to you?" ”

Liu Wei smiled and replied with an expression, because he had to worry about a second voice recorder in this room.

Scott pondered for a moment and said, "I believe in your abilities, but the election is approaching, and the Republican Party will have a candidate in a few months." ”

"It's simple, with the governor nodding, you can get criminals out of Nevada within a month."

"...... you," Scott hesitated for a moment, "and the other drug dealers?" ”

"Your Excellency, you're a Republican, aren't you?"

Scott was stunned for a moment, then nodded.

"As far as I know, Republicans are staunch free-marketists, or they all believe in neo-liberal economic theory." Liu Wei took two puffs of his cigar and said with a smile, "It is often the consumer rather than the producer who determines the market, and there is no production without consumption." I believe that His Excellency the Governor should understand this truth, and he should know that even if all drug dealers are killed, as long as there are still people who take drugs, there will be new drug dealers. This market is hugely profitable and unprecedentedly attractive, and no one can change the laws of the market. ”

"You ......"

"Someone would do it without me, wouldn't they?"

Scott gritted his teeth, he had to admit Liu Wei's point of view.

"Why not manage the competition that is out of the clutter? There is no guarantee that we will never put minors at harm's disposal, just as the smoking ban and the alcohol ban are sold only to adults who are able to read and behave. I can also assure you that the resulting social crime will be effectively controlled, and residents will no longer have to worry about going out at night or having their children go to school alone. ”

"What guarantees do you have?"

"The police are not omnipotent, and there are always things that the police can't do."

Scott understood, or rather understood.

"In addition to that, I can help His Excellency the Governor revitalize Nevada's economy."

"Really?" Scott was clearly more interested in that.

"Las Vegas's gaming and service industries have become saturated, and if Reno can be built into a tourist city on par with Las Vegas, Nevada will become the brightest new star among the 50 states in the United States, and it will not be a state's economy when the time comes."

"Mr. Liu's idea is very good, it's just ......"

"The United States is a country of business, or rather, a country with an entrepreneurial spirit, so I do all the work, and Your Excellency the Governor only needs to enjoy the benefits that come with it."

Scott nodded thoughtfully and asked, "So what are you going to do?" ”

"Start with a road, the best road that connects Las Vegas to Reno, so that visitors can get back and forth quickly between the two places, instead of having to go to California like they do now. I haven't counted, but as far as I've learned, at least half of the tourists who have been to Las Vegas have spent a lot of dollars in California instead of going to Reno. ”

"Mr. Liu does have an entrepreneurial vision."

"Of course, Reno can't be a casino, or it doesn't have to be a gambling business, but it should focus on other service areas. I'm already planning to build the largest nightclub in the U.S. in Reno, and in the future, I can build a large complex park on top of it, and then build a water park centered on Lake Pilamide. ”

"It's going to require a huge investment."

"Of course, but you don't need to worry about it, Your Excellency." Liu Wei smiled and said, "These projects will create tens of thousands of jobs in the next few years, and if the highway is built, it will also create more jobs." If all of them recruit workers in the state, it is believed that Nevada will be able to survive the financial crisis as soon as possible. ”

Now, Scott's eyes lit up.

Whether or not we can survive the financial crisis is one thing, but creating tens or even hundreds of thousands of jobs is another.

You must know that the unemployment rate in the United States has been maintained at more than 10 percent, and at most it reached 16 percent.

The serious employment situation has caused headaches for both federal and state political axes.

For politicians, the most effective way to win that vote is to provide jobs so that voters can find suitable jobs.

Scott was excited for a moment, then looked a little disappointed.

If he had known Liu Wei two years ago, he would have been assured of winning the Republican nomination and even winning the election.

Unfortunately, there will be a general election next year, and none of these projects will be able to be completed in just one year.

Liu Wei saw Scott's concerns, and said with a smile: "Your Excellency, we might as well reach a gentleman's agreement, as long as the state government provides land to build roads, Mr. Capuya Jr. will invest the first amount of money within three months." More than half of Reno's projects will begin before the Republican internal elections. ”

"So fast?"

"If you have enough money, you can go a little faster."

Scott's brows jumped a few times, and he hurriedly said, "In this case, what does Mr. Liu want me to do?" ”

"One thing."

"What?"

"Let the state police cooperate with me, at least don't cause me trouble."

"You...... Do you want to deal with other people? ”

Liu Wei smiled, pointed out the window, and said, "Mr. Capua Jr. is in the café opposite, if there are no people who break the law, he should work at the New York Stock Exchange and move towards his life goal." There are many, many more people like him. God couldn't control everything, so Joshua needed to manage the ranch for him. If we can't punish those guys with the law, we'll have to go back to the days of western pioneering. Someone has to come out to maintain order, and someone has to come out to do justice. ”

Scott was silent, as if pondering Liu Wei's words.

Liu Wei didn't say more, because he knew that Scott had long understood these truths, but the politician's surname made him have to appear a little deeper.

"Mr. Liu, I can't help you with anything, but I can provide you with someone."

Liu Wei smiled and waited for Scott to continue.

"Douglas of the State Police Department."

"Sheriff General?"

Scott nodded and said, "He's in close contact with those guys in Las Vegas, and as long as you can make a higher price, you can make him work for you." ”

Liu Wei smiled and said, "I will offer a price that he can't refuse." ”

Hearing this, Scott also laughed.

"Your Excellency the Governor is very bold and believes that our cooperation can be further deepened in the long run."

"Mr. Liu, donation......

Liu Wei was stunned for a moment, this guy is not ordinary greedy. "It's a small matter, and Mr. Capua Jr. will deliver the check to your campaign group in time."

"That's great, if Mr. Liu has something, he can come to me at any time, just don't be so sudden." Scott got up and sent Liu Wei to the door, "If you have the chance, Mr. Liu can go to Walker Lake to enjoy the scenery over there, and it is guaranteed that Mr. Liu will not want to return." ”

Liu Wei agreed with a smile, but he didn't know what Scott was doing.
