Chapter 204: The Inside Story [3/4]

Duhrin didn't really care about Scott's words, not that he couldn't hear the complicated information in this sentence, or that he felt that he had those 30 million...... No, according to the current operation of the jewelry store, that gold can be sold for at least 40 million! He is very rich, but he also knows that there are more people in this world who are richer than himself, those real bigwigs of the General Chamber of Commerce, those super-rich people who have accumulated endless wealth for generations of big aristocrats, and the super-rich ...... who have gathered the wealth of a dozen or even dozens of families.

There were many people who were richer than him, more powerful than him, but he was not worried at all, because this was Illion.

This may be a bit incomprehensible, but to put it simply, it is impossible for these people to put 100% of their energy into a project, and Durin's opponents are not those terrifying economic leaders, but slender tentacles. He couldn't stand up to the big conglomerates, but he could easily cut off their tentacles without fear of reprisals. If the victors had been expelled every time a business investment failed, the world would have stopped turning and the empire would have died a long time ago.

So Durin wasn't worried at all, he patted Scott's arm and squeezed it a little harder, "I know it in my heart." ”

When Scott saw that Durin said this, it would be a bit of a deep argument to persuade him to continue, and he closed his mouth at the right time, and the two of them went to the center of the living room and sat down. This is followed by a process of getting to know each other, small talk, and Q&A. An hour later, José sent the three Gualte representatives off on behalf of Doolin and asked Dover to send Scott back.

He sat back down on the largest couch in the middle of the living room, and Savi walked down from the second floor, "I've done everything you told the boss, and everything has been delivered." He sat down on Durin's side, grabbed an apple from the basket and nibbled on it. Since the first killing, Savi has been very comfortable with assassinations, and since he is still a child, it is not easy to arouse suspicion, if he is a little stronger and better, he can handle similar things specifically for Durin.

"I'll give you a few more days off, go around, work hard, and play unrestrainedly. After the play, I would like to invite some tutors and some other people to come and teach you lessons!", Savi was still excited in the first half of the sentence, how can such a prosperous city that never sleeps be compared to a remote town like Tennell? Even if you go to the streets in the middle of the night, the first district is still brightly lit, and there are people singing and dancing everywhere, only such a city can be called a city that never sleeps, and it is called a metropolis.

It's just that the second half of Durin's sentence completely wilted him, the word school used to be something he dreamed of, but for Savi now, he wants to do big things more than waste time on studying.

Sensing Savi's displeasure, Durin smiled and slapped him on the back of the head, not heavy, not very light, "Fool, I hope that you and your little friends can share more things for me in the future, then learning must be the most important thing." You don't have to learn, I won't force you, and I won't force anyone, but if one day those little friends of yours become your superiors, and they ask you to do something in a commanding tone, I hope you won't forget your current choice. ”

Savi clenched his fists in a daze, and he felt uncomfortable at the thought that the high-spirited "big brother" had become the target of his subordinates. He didn't quite understand what Durin said, was it really necessary for someone like them to take on such a mission, but Savi, who had always been very obedient, decided to follow Durin's arrangement, at least Durin wouldn't harm him!

Little did he know that, apart from the two teachers who taught knowledge, the others were either heinous criminals or veterans from elite units. Even if it is a gray society, Durin wants to turn this society into a fighting steel bullet, not a clod of dirt that will crush when you pinch it. In addition to facilitating future management, more military training is also aimed at strengthening their own "professional level", and he hopes that there will be anyone who will not be able to come back when performing tasks, and in the current period, everyone is his most trusted, the most reliable, and a valuable asset!

Soon, Dover came back from outside, and he glanced at Savi, who was sitting next to Durin, and said nothing, which Dulfo admired very much. In non-"working" time, Doolin is really their brother, their family, as he always says, without a bit of a leader's shelf. He will not be annoyed by joking with him, or even playing with him, but will smile at these expressions of family and friendship.

But when it comes to "working" time, he is the leader, his temperament, his eyes, he is the most prominent one. Dover sometimes laughed at himself and asked himself why he didn't join so many societies when he was in prison, and he had to hang out with a guy named Dorin?

It's the feeling of being like a family that makes him very satisfied and happy. He grabbed an apple and nibbled on it, and the two brothers looked at each other and smiled, but neither of them spoke.

Durin tapped his fingers twice on the armrest of the golden-patterned sofa, "Go and ask Eric what the situation is in District 8, Scott's words are there, it seems that all the projects in District 8 have been assigned." That's not what I want to see, if there's no level playing field for us to compete, then we create a level playing field for ourselves!"

Dover nodded at him, waved his hand to Savi, and immediately got up to leave, while Ellis was still there staring at Eric. Back at East Coast Entertainment, Ellis was smoking in the lobby when he pointed upstairs, who nodded.

Eric has been locked in his office for the past few days, and he will only let him out when he needs to come out, and he can consider jumping from the third-floor window if he is not afraid of breaking his leg, but even if he has the courage, it is pointless, because the jump is right outside the gate on the first floor.

When the room was opened on the third floor, the swelling on Eric's face had subsided a lot, and when Dufo came in, he was half-asleep, and he suddenly rolled over and sat up. After seeing the people and Du Buddha's hands clearly, he rubbed his face and lowered his head a little tiredly.

"The boss asked me to ask you if you know anything about the Eighth District. ”

Eric tilted his head to look at Dover, stretched out his hand and asked, "Do you have any cigarettes?"

Dover threw away most of the box of cigarettes, and Eric skillfully took one out of his mouth and lit a fire, squinting his eyes and spitting out the smoke that swirled around from the lobes of his lungs with great enjoyment, slightly dizzy, which is normal for novices.

"The situation in the 8th arrondissement is a bit complicated, because there is a lot of work in the planning of the city hall, and it is simply impossible to rely on the city hall alone to build it, so the city hall has contacted some large consortia and wealthy people to finance the construction of the 8th arrondissement, and verbally guaranteed their investment rights and interests in Yili. Now most of the projects in the eighth district already have contractors, it is said to be the eighth district of Ilian, it is better to say that it is the eighth district of these rich conglomerates!", Eric rubbed his eyes, his eyes were a little uncomfortable from the smoke, "The boss also wants to invest in the eighth district? The threshold of the eighth district must be at least 10 million, and it is cash that can be taken out anytime and anywhere. ”

"I've thought about bidding on a project before, but you see......", he shrugged his shoulders helplessly, "I don't even have the qualifications to ask for specifics!"

After listening to this, Du Fo nodded very calmly, "Okay, you can rest first, there are two appointments tomorrow!", he casually locked the door and told Durin the inside story of Eric's statement over the phone, Durin was silent for a while and then said I know, and hung up the phone.

Early the next morning, Durin arrived at the town hall in his super-glaring Hausluwe, and met the most powerful administrator of Illian in the mayor's office.

"I heard that you also want to participate in the construction of the Eighth District?", the mayor had already guessed Durin's intention after greeting Dulin, he weighed it for a moment, and then had a serious expression, "I can agree, but you have to know one thing, the projects in the Eighth District have basically been packaged, and some of the remaining corners and corners are probably also worried, and even if I agree to give you a certain project, it is useless, everything depends on the final result." He rubbed his fingers, "You've got to have this!"

Durin took out a certificate and put it on the table, pushing it over, "This is my deposit certificate with the Imperial Central Bank, I believe there should be a chance to get what I want, right?"

The series of zeros made the mayor click in satisfaction, and pushed the proof back. This thing seems to be bluffing, but in fact it doesn't mean anything, it can't withdraw money, and it can't be used as a completely legal proof of assets, it's just a kind of document to prove that you are rich in a short period of time.

"You still go to Scott about this matter, and I will let him follow up, and he has a plan for the specific project, which you will be interested in. The mayor bent down, took out a scroll tied with a red ribbon from a drawer, and threw it to Durin, "This is a certificate of merit for an outstanding citizen, and another 300,000 ......"

Duhrin interrupted the mayor, "The other 300,000 are counted in my bid. ”

The mayor smiled with satisfaction, this is a smart young man, he likes to communicate with smart young people, this quick reaction makes him very comfortable, and some words don't even need to be said very embarrassed by themselves, they can understand what they mean, so everyone is not embarrassed, isn't it good?
