How long! ”

A somewhat serious and slightly gloomy voice sounded, and in the already silent Congress Hall, the atmosphere began to change again, and many people looked at Eddie, who stood up and bowed slightly in the family auditorium.

Everyone present knew that the Hillman family had made a lot of money over the years by sniping this construction project, and the Hillman family had become the biggest beneficiary of this construction project.

Wu Qun supported his cheeks and stared at Eddie with slanted eyes, Freya who was sitting next to him wanted to get up, but her face changed slightly, and she looked a little unwell, Wu Qun and a few people around him confirmed their eyes, stood up, and the Hillman family finally showed their minions.

Violet turned and looked at Eddie not far away.

"Ladies and gentlemen, allow me to say a few words."

"Say it Eddie!"

The cyan god said in a slightly helpless voice, and Eddie walked out of the banquet with a smile.

"First of all, I would like to elaborate on a problem! The essence of business is profit and loss! Please don't point the finger at our family because our family has made money, everyone should know that this land used to be named! Colosseum! This is a zero-sum game within a limited range, and since it is a game, there will naturally be winners and losers! ”

Eddie walked leisurely to the front of the family auditorium, and his words made a lot of whispers stop for a while.

"A zero-sum game?"

Violet sneered and shook her head.

"It's just for some people! Eddie, if you just think it's a zero-sum game, the city won't develop so far, and there is a difference between zero-sum and one! ”

Wu Qun spoke, Eddie looked at his former classmates with a smile, he knew very well that no one could stop it, the Angus family was going to collapse, they couldn't survive this year, and what happened in the barrier area would greatly affect everything in the Angus family.

The clean-up operation is not as simple as the Acting Section thinks, a large number of weapons have flowed out of the Alatan Ula Mountains over the years, and have flowed into the hands of the criminals, as long as they have weapons in their hands, they will shoot, they will not sit still, and the plan of the 3rd Section to build an armament station in the barrier area is impossible to complete, as long as there is still a day when the criminals still exist, as long as the laws of the city are still as strict as ever, as long as the 5th Division is still maintaining social security, the blood and tears piled up at the bottom of the society will definitely lead to the barrier area.

Eddie was sure that it was only a matter of time before the gods would force the Angus family to make the final choice, because it was enough for the gods to put this matter on the table at such an important meeting.

"The difference between zero and one is that there is and there is nothing! Councillor Wu Qun, what do you think of the city's economic situation today? ”

Wu Qun smiled, but he was not at ease at all, the current economic situation in the city is because of the construction project, and it seems to be calm, but in fact there is an undercurrent, which leads to such drastic changes in the city's economy is also due to the construction project.

The construction project has driven all the industries in the city, but at the same time, the direction of the industry can only follow the construction project, and if it cannot correspond to the construction project, it will lose money, the businessmen are a group of profit chasers, they will only follow the footsteps of Angus construction, and the economic orientation in the city is now following the Angus construction, which is extremely dangerous.

Only a diversified economy can share most of the risks in the economic chain and effectively reduce the unpredictable risks in a single economic chain, and everyone present knows this.

"It's true that the economic situation in the city is not good now, but it is not irreversible! For example, what do you think about the cancellation of privately operated mobile payments? ”

Wu Qun suddenly changed his words, and Eddie laughed.

"Please don't make fun of us Hillmans, Councilor Wu Qun."

Wu Qun shook his head.

"I'm telling the truth, the overall volume of finance has outnumbered the real by too much, and it's about to overflow! 200%, over the years I believe you should be clear, what is going on, finance from the earliest white strip in history, to now for several centuries, this is the most effective fund-raising tool in the hands of businessmen, but also constantly tempting batch after batch of ants to fall into the sugar jar, the temperature is not high when entering, but when more and more ants enter the sugar jar, the temperature begins to rise, what will happen next does not need me to explain! ”

Eddie nodded and said.

"Finance! But the development of the city is indispensable to this link, Wu Qun, do you think that ignoring the financial link, the city can also be built? ”

Wu Qungang was about to say something, but Violet spoke again.

"I'm hungry, gods, please give us the Angus family a little time, and we will complete the proposal as scheduled."

The six gods on the side of the round table were still hesitating at this time, and did not directly answer Violet, and Eddie spoke again.

"Everybody here is hungry Ms. Violet, and sometimes it's a good thing to be pushy, but it's a big problem for the city as a whole, and I hope you'll think about it, time can't solve anything."

Everyone understands the meaning of Eddie's words, he hopes that the problem can be solved today, not tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, let alone the day when the Angus family collapses, and it will be more troublesome to clean up when the time comes, and it will cost several times the capital, time and energy to clean up this mess, which is not what the Hillman family wants to see.

Some parliamentarians have already begun to calculate on the light and shadow screen in front of them, and Pullman has already calculated something by looking at the economic model on the light and shadow screen.

At present, the Angus family has a minimum loss of more than 100 billion, the bank's arrears are only a small problem, the important thing is that the Angus family's property is shrinking rapidly, losses occur every day, only one point in the west can be profitable, 19 areas from the bottom to the middle in the west, nearly 4 million people, including more than 2 million floating population, the income of the subway is about 3 million a day, excluding 30% of the technical tax, the remaining 2.1 million after spending about 1 million operation and maintenance labor and other costs, The pure profit is only about 1 million.

It seems that there is a net income of more than 300 million a month, but in fact, it is a drop in the bucket for the current situation of Angus construction, and the funds that Congress can settle to Angus construction every month are at most about 1.5 billion, which is not enough to maintain until the construction is fully completed, and from the frequent crime problems in the past to today's technical problems, the entire Angus family is in debt, and it is difficult to move an inch, even if the Angus family sells a large number of industrial land that can make money, it still cannot fill this hole.

The most critical of this is that in the past, the Hillman family sniped through the reasonable and legal sniping of the financial system, and at the moment when the financial laws were not yet fully perfected, the only way for the Angus family to contain the loss was not to cooperate with any businessman or family member, but this is obviously impossible, and now no one is willing to take the initiative to get into this big pit, and there is no other way than the comprehensive acquisition of the Hillman family.

"The amount given by our Hillman family, I am sure will satisfy you, Mrs. Angus!"

Pullman has probably guessed the amount, 100 billion.

"What do you think of 120 billion? We will pay 50 billion first, and the remaining 70 billion will be settled within 5 years. ”

For a while, the venue shook again, such a huge amount of transactions, the only families that can take out 50 billion at one time in the city are the current Hillman family and the Angus family.

"Allow me to say no to Eddie. Mr. Hillman! ”

Violet looked at Eddie with a resolute gaze, and directly rejected his proposal, now the Hillman family's diversified operation, almost every industry in the city has the shadow of the Hillman family, they have indeed become the richest man in the city, especially after receiving a large number of real estate and some industries of the Angus family, the entire Hillman family is in full swing, and they are currently the only family that has the ability to solve all the problems in the city now.

Su Li said with a smile, 50 billion of them Su family can also take it, but the follow-up construction is impossible to carry out, although I don't want to admit it, but now the only way is to let the Hillman family take over the proposal.

"My condition is not bad, Mrs. Angus, I hope you can properly consider it, and if this continues, it will cause great harm to the overall economy of the city."

Alpha stared at Eddie quietly, and a wave of anger jumped up in her heart, but she was moody and moody on weekdays, only Ke Ying next to her knew it, Alpha was a little angry, looking at the frequency of her smoking, she knew that when she was anxious and angry, Alpha smoked very fiercely, and when she extinguished the cigarette butt, she would unconsciously increase her strength.

The gods remained silent, as if they wanted to continue listening, but in reality they only needed Viollet's consent.

Violet was exhausted at this time, and the hall of the parliament fell into a dead silence again, no one said anything, although Wu Qun was still thinking about the problem, but there was no solution to the problem at present.

Latis looked at Violit from time to time, and then at Alpha, she wanted to get up, but she couldn't help it, Clark next to her had already understood Latis's intentions, just now she had been planning something on the light and shadow screen, Clark saw a few words, and completely understood.

"That's good!"

Clark was the first to stand up and speak.

"We actually have a plan for 11 and 12 subjects, and the highest cost of Angus construction is labor cost!"

Latis immediately stood up, her fingers stopped moving, a document on the prisoner's assignment for labor and rehabilitation had been submitted, Latis's forehead was already wet, she extinguished the cigarette butt in her mouth and glanced at Alpha.

"Please take a look at the proposal for the assignment of prison inmates to work abroad jointly drawn up by our two sections, which is an effective practice, and those with sentences of less than 1 year can also participate, our 11th and 12th sections will take full responsibility and send prisoners to every construction site built by Angus, and 5 sections will fully assist and take care of the prisoners!"

Alpha was a little surprised, but still stood up as quickly as possible.

"It's not legal, isn't it?"

Eddie's face turned bad in an instant.

"It is indeed illegal, prisoners are not allowed to leave the scope of the eastern grain base, but special treatment at special times, many prisoners carry out heavy physical labor in the eastern agricultural base every day, there is no salary, but the function of the prison is too narrow now, itself as an institution to reform criminals, now it is considered to be seriously out of touch with society, although this practice is illegal, although there are potential safety hazards, but the criminals now carry collars, which is an absolute security guarantee."

As soon as Clark finished speaking, Latis stood up.

"After our long-term comprehensive psychological test, you can take a little look, the current mental condition of the criminals in the prison, most of them are not very good, in line with society, is the best way to treat some mental illnesses, every day we will use the take-off and landing aircraft to transport the criminals, and will never let them leave the scope of the construction site, Angus Construction only needs to be near the construction site, pull up the protective net."

Violet didn't speak, just looked at the two gratefully, and Eddie became a little anxious.

"So I hope that the six gods will give us a little time, and our 11 and 12 departments will come up with a more complete system."

"So how is the problem of the law solved?"

Eddie asked again, and Pullman stood up.

"The legal inability of prisoners to leave the eastern food base refers to those who have serious violent tendencies, but many criminals have been released on parole over the years, and the results are very good, and many criminals have returned to society well during the parole period, and I think it is necessary for us to revise this law in the next city meeting."

Eddie was still thinking, but then the orange god spoke.

"Three months! Please come up with a strategy, and put this issue on hold until the next city meeting, and now you can go to dinner, and please come back here at 9 o'clock! ”

As the orange god's voice fell, all the gods disappeared next to the round table, and the councillors and the clerks began to get up and leave, Eddie looked at the crowd that began to leave, and anger appeared on his face, at this time Alpha had walked over quickly, holding his mother, who looked exhausted.

"I'll carry you up, Mom."

Violet didn't say anything, nodded quietly, Latis was relieved at this moment, and Clark smiled helplessly.

"In any case, it is always necessary to fill the dilemma of the shortage of manpower in the agricultural department after the prisoners are sent out to work, and an additional worker's salary is needed."

"That's all there is to it!"

Latis said, looking at Alpha who was leaving with his mother on his back, no one bothered the mother and daughter, and at the moment when Latis just stepped into the congress hall, a contact came.

It's over!

Latis's expression tightened, knowing that it was sent by Song Man, she ignored it, and at this time Clark leaned over.

"What's the end?"

"You're so lenient."

5 minutes ago

"What are you going to do, let go!"

Pete yelled, but his mouth was gagged, he whimpered, he had just woken up from his sleep, he was pressed by several people, and after his mouth was gagged, he couldn't make a sound.

The one-eyed fox at the door was smoking, there were only 3 people in the room, and Weiss was among them, and the yellow-faced and skinny man who came in was completely different, and he had become a lot stronger.

"Listen to Pete first, don't get excited!"

The one-eyed fox said, Pete's excited emotions quieted down, but he still looked at the one-eyed fox in horror, because he didn't know where to offend him, he had a very good relationship with the one-eyed fox during this time, and the one-eyed fox also said that he wanted to invest in Pete after he went out, and when the time came, he only hoped that Pete would introduce some beautiful adult actresses as compensation, and Pete of course agreed.

"Hurry up, we've only got 3 minutes."

The one-eyed fox said, at this time the cloth stuffed in Pete's mouth was taken out, Weiss was a little panicked, he carried a bottle of high wine, and directly began to pour Pete, Pete struggled, although the wine spilled a lot, but still drank a lot, less than 1 minute, Pete's eyes widened, a whole bottle of high spirits had been poured down, but the person who poured the wine still refused to stop.

Pete only felt that his whole body seemed to be burning, his chest and abdomen began to be soaked with spirits to varying degrees, his consciousness began to blur, and a whole bottle of wine was poured down, and then the one-eyed fox took another bottle of high spirits and handed it over, Weiss couldn't bear to turn his head and continued to pour it, Pete's struggle became smaller and smaller, his eyes were red, and he was about to lose consciousness.

"I have no grievances with you, but someone doesn't want you to go out, sorry Pete, you're a good chat friend!"

The pouring stopped, several people got up in fear, and walked out in turn according to the order that the one-eyed fox said, Pete kept flowing wine from his mouth, the room was full of alcohol, his eyes widened, and he raised a hand, the one-eyed fox exhaled a puff of smoke, and then turned around.

"I ........ Save......... Help me, I tell you......... A secret, I ........."

The one-eyed fox walked out of the room, threw away the cigarette butt, and smiled and greeted some of the people in the nearby cell, by which time Pete in the room had his eyes turned white and gray, and he was no longer breathing.

Right now

With the sound of a shrill siren and a flash of red light in the corridor of the cell, the staff of Section 11 who managed this floor came down, and soon there were prisoners squatting near Pete's room, all of them holding their heads in their hands, and a strong smell of alcohol came from the room.

Soon the test results came out, died of acute alcohol poisoning, and there was only an empty bottle in the room, and after a while, several councillors came down and began to investigate, as time went by, and Pete's one-eyed fox group was called to the management room, a total of more than 20 people, everyone said that Pete has been very generous recently, and often invites people to drink, not only the one-eyed fox and their group, but others have also been invited by Pete.

After a brief questioning of a number of prisoners, Pete's death was characterized as an accident, and those who drank with Pitt were punished by three months of heavy physical labor.

A lot of wine and food were brought in by the people who came to visit the prison, and Pete's fiancée came a while ago and brought a lot of delicious wine and canned food to Pete, so Pete naturally invited the one-eyed fox to enjoy it with them.

After Song Man finished summarizing his speech, he signed his name, and in the secretary's office, only the one-eyed fox was still there, and he stood aside respectfully with a smile.

"Is there anyone you'd like to meet?"

The one-eyed fox immediately shook his head.

"You don't need anything, Lord Song Man! If it's okay, I'll go back and rest. ”

Song Man looked at the one-eyed fox suspiciously, he left the room with a smile, the whole plan went very smoothly, Pete, who often drank alcohol during this time, died of alcohol poisoning, it is very commonsense, this matter has passed, for this plan, the one-eyed fox and Pete have become good friends who talk about everything during this time, and the things explained above have finally been completed, the one-eyed fox breathed a sigh of relief, but in the end, Pete said that, the one-eyed fox was a little puzzled, but soon he laughed, what should not be known is not to know, It is the only way to be safe and secure.

After returning to the floor where his cell was located, Vis and the two people who had worked together before gathered in the one-eyed fox's room, and the three of them turned pale.

"I'll tell you one last time, forget about it."

Weiss covered his forehead with his hands in annoyance, and after the one-eyed fox took out a bottle of wine from the cabinet, the three of them looked at the wine with apprehension.

"Have a drink, get some sleep, and wake up and remember nothing."

The three nodded.

7:58 p.m

Ran Zhi had just eaten with his wife outside, the husband and wife walked on the street, the wife was still talking about the food just now which was delicious and which was not delicious, Ran Zhi smiled and responded one by one, he quietly observed everything on the street, the big action of the department in the barrier area, there was not even a trace of ripples at the bottom, everyone is concerned about whether they can make a little more money tomorrow, there is still no change as in the past, many people no longer use light and shadow material items, this thing is indeed convenient for many people, Although the cost of continuous payment is not too high, it is still not as tangible as the physical material.

Some of the factories that produce physical objects at the bottom have come to life again, and many things are simply unnecessary for the people at the bottom.

Along the way, Ran Zhi greeted many people, Ran Zhi is very good at eating in this neighborhood now, recently his son and daughter have come to see them, and his son is about to get married, Ran Zhi has also seen his son's girlfriend, she is a rich lady, she looks very gentle, and she is a good match for her son.

Now Ran Zhi only needs to wait for the time to be ripe, and then enjoy the life at the bottom leisurely, according to Ran Zhi's guess, there can only be one reason why Congress will take action in the barrier area, and something will happen next.

Drip, drip, drip

An unfamiliar number called, after the number just appeared, it immediately became a string of garbled characters, Ran Zhi probably guessed who would call him, Ran Zhi hung up the phone directly, and continued to go home with his wife, at this time, suddenly his wife stumbled again, almost fell, and returned to her original state after a short period of distraction, and she had already checked her body, and her wife was not a big problem, but she was a little anemic.

After returning home, Ran Zhi took care of his wife and lay down, and came to the small living room on the second floor.

Sure enough, at 8:21, the garbled call came again.

"I'm doing well now, my life is peaceful."

"I think we need to talk, Mr. Wise!"

Ran Zhi laughed, Eddie's voice was still the same as always, but there was anger in his voice.

"Is something big wrong?"

"You should know how much you want, wise man."

Ran Zhi laughed, he wanted to hang up the phone, but finally gave up.

"Say it, Eddie."

"My plans are currently frustrated, and I desperately need you to do me a little favor."

The smile on Ran Zhi's face disappeared.

"Eddie, your little favor shouldn't be easy!"

"It's a simple thing to mess up the bottom."

The wise man did not answer, but fell silent.

"I'm sorry Eddie, I've made it clear to you, besides, you and I have a different approach, I just want to live in peace, goodbye Eddie, this may be our last call."

"So how important do you think your sons and daughters, and your wives, are to you?"

Ran Zhi grinned, and he shook his head.

"Eddie, this senseless threat is unnecessary, if you really want to threaten me with this, we can try it, I promise you will pay a terrible price you have never experienced before, I will do it."

Ran Zhi smiled and hung up the phone, he could imagine Eddie's expression at this moment.

bang

With a burst of explosions, Eddie smashed the mobile phone in his hand, looking at everything in the bedroom in annoyance, he had applied to leave the Congress early, and got permission, Eddie went home as soon as possible, and now what makes Eddie most angry is not the fact that the department intervenes in the Angus family halfway, Prometheus specified the plan, this has been mentioned, and now the most angry thing for Eddie is that Pete died, just half an hour ago, he died in prison because of alcohol poisoning, but this is obviously very abnormal, something is strange.

After Prometheus retrieved the prison's surveillance, a trace of a data anomaly was found, and in the minutes of Pete's death, the video recording had some minor flaws, but it was basically difficult to find evidence.

Eddie stood up angrily, such an accident was something Eddie didn't expect, Pete's existence was just like a bomb, and one day he would expose everything he knew, which was Eddie's purpose, but now Pete is dead.

"How's the situation going in the Barrier Zone?"

"The contact signal has been cut off, and Lord Eddy, in order to prevent being found by the Operations Section, has completely cut off the contact signal and recovered all surveillance robots to ensure that the plan is foolproof."

Eddie glared at Prometheus angrily, and soon he sat down in the seat, and the seat began to pass through the channel that flashed with different colored points of light, and came directly to an empty room, which was already rusty, and one of X's eyes no longer flashed red, and the brain nutrient replenishment chamber connected to the mechanical head.

"Old friend, we met again, the success rate of the method you gave us is a little low, what do you think?"

"I've already told you about Eddie, everything I can say, I've told you!"

Eddie crossed Erlang's legs disapprovingly, smiled and shook his head.

"You still haven't told the truth old friend, then don't blame me for being ruthless!"
