Chapter 489: A Small Gathering [2]
When Buck said he wanted to be a core member, Doolin's first reaction was to look at Dove. He knew Dove much better than he knew about Buck, and Dove's personality would never have made Buck a core member of them. Although everyone is ignoring one thing, the facts are the facts, and Dove has unwittingly become a member of Doolin's inner circle. She knew so much that she would stop Buck from falling into this weird circle as well.
Dove's lips moved, and finally she lowered her head, she wanted to say no, but Buck's eyes gave her a feeling of indescribability.
There's anticipation, there's threat, there's passion, there's hatred, it's very complicated. She had never seen so many contradictory emotions in the eyes of a person, and this person was still her relative, her own brother. She didn't know what to choose, and she also hesitated and hesitated.
Doolin has been by his side almost all the way, watching him start from running a jewelry store and step by step to become the mayor he is today, and he has achieved such things in a short period of three years. If in the future he does not encounter an insurmountable mountain, then where will Doolin be able to go?
Perhaps, as he himself said, to become the prime minister of the empire?
She had seen so much during her time with Durin as Doolin's life steward, and she knew that tonight was a fateful choice, and an opportunity was in her hands. As long as you hold on tightly, the next stop may be the kingdom of heaven, but it may also be the abyss.
As long as she grasps this opportunity, in the future, she, her younger brother or even her elder brother, will represent the rise of a family!
After being at the bottom of the society for so long, Dove also wants to smell the smell on the top of the mountain, is it really so fresh and charming.
It didn't take long for her hesitation to understand, and he smiled and nodded, "It's just right, we have to discuss something in the evening, maybe there is still something we need from you." ”
Buck's face flushed with excitement, and he waved his fist slightly, as if every cell in his body was cheering as if he had first discussed the origins of humanity with his girlfriend.
Dove shook her head, silently walked to the kitchen, and began to make dinner for Durin, as well as some snacks, which they must have been discussing for a long time tonight.
"Where's Kevin?", Durin looked, didn't see Kevin, Du Buddha pointed to the location of the study on the second floor, Durin patted Buck's shoulder, making the young man immediately puff up his chest, "Go and call Kevin down, let's talk about something before eating." ”
Soon Buck brought Kevin down, and everyone sat down, and Durin told Haidt to close the windows and doors, and then exhaled lightly.
"I have been able to confirm that the person who created the counterfeit money to attack us this time is the mayor of Namirlinders, Mr. Todd. Du Lin subconsciously took out a box of cigarettes, took one for himself and threw it on the table, he didn't light it immediately, "The damage caused by the rapid growth of Otis City to Namilin is predictable, once the two railways are repaired, Nami Lindes will lose at least sixty percent of its financial revenue." ”
"Coupled with our continuous investment promotion, we have attracted some businessmen who originally bought property in Nami Lindes, and the economy of Nami Lindes will decline rapidly. This is definitely a blow to him, and I have heard that his last appearance said that he would run for governor in four years' time, and if there is a rapid decline in economic growth and livelihood in Namirinders in those four years, he has no chance of getting the slightest vote. ”
"People don't put a guy who can't even be mayor into the governor's position, so he has to do something, whether it's for himself or for Namirinders. ”
Durin took the cigarette with the cigarette filter facing down, and slurped twice on the coffee table. Because of the increase in tobacco taxes, many cigarette rolls have loose tobacco, and there have even been jokes about a tube of tobacco sliding out. These tobacco companies have been able to keep their profits without raising prices by doing a little bit of trickery with the cigarettes themselves.
After knocking twice, the tobacco on the cigarette butt in Durin's hand obviously retracted into the pipe, and then he took out his lighter and lit it, and took a deep breath, "I'm sure they won't admit that they did these things anyway, but the matter must be resolved." If they don't destroy those machines and templates, it means that they can secretly continue to make tokens anytime and anywhere. So we need to give Mr. Todd a little bit of a taste, he's been mayor for so long that he's forgotten that there are some things he can't do. ”
Kevin pinched his chin and interjected, "Why don't you talk to him first, maybe he will compensate you for your loss!", after saying that, he himself was happy first, everyone's eyes were focused on him, he smiled and waved his hand and said, "Okay, no kidding." Actually, I can't help you much, but I have a suggestion, it's better to talk about it first, if Todd is not willing to apologize for the damage, then we just have to catch the guy named Louie and chase after him......"
Durin raised his hand to stop Kevin from continuing, he knew what Kevin was trying to say, "I'm very sorry Kevin, this matter can indeed be solved by going to court, but it can't be done to make this a sign of warning to everyone." I'm sure you'll be able to make them anxious in court, but what about the bystanders? This kind of punishment is not even a punishment for these people, as long as they don't die, they can't survive it. ”
"So ......," Durin chuckled twice, "we need to make him understand cleanly that although I am a mayor like him, the essence of us is different!"
"Duringo, what do you say, kill whom?", Savi rolled up his sleeves and painted that I will do whoever you ask me to do. When he was a child, he admired the Buddha the most, although he said that the Buddha did not go to school, fooled around with those gangs outside, and often came back with injuries. But he brought light to the family, even if the light could be extinguished by a weak wind, but after all, everyone came over safely.
These younger brothers and sisters are using the money from the Buddha's life to fill their stomachs, eat and see a doctor. Without Du Buddha and his years of fighting on the streets, they might have died halfway through. Maybe he died of hunger, maybe he died of disease.
Later, he began to worship Durin, who was smaller than Dufo, but everything he did was bigger and more exciting than the ones that Dubud had done. What's more, Durin is very fair - this only works for himself, and whatever he does will be heartbreaking, even if he knows that doing things for Durin may die. Look at those streets of Turnier, countless people are willing to fight for Durin, willing to fight for him!
Durin pressed Savi's shoulder and pressed him back, "Several gang leaders on Namirinders' side are also investors in the city now, I got a little news from them......", Durin suddenly turned his head and said thank you, took the teacup and took a sip, "Todd has a wife, two daughters, and he has several mistresses outside, two of which need to be paid attention to, both of these women have children around them, probably Todd's species." ”
"He doesn't have any relatives of his own, it is said that there was an epidemic in Namirinders many years ago, and his family died in the epidemic......"
Keena couldn't help but ask, "If his whole family died, how did he survive?"
Durin glanced at him, "He was working as a servant for the Earl of Linders and was living in the castle. He continued with the above words: "There are quite a few security guards in his villa, about twenty or so, and people follow them when they enter and leave. In addition to the town hall team, he has a former secretary who now does the dirty work for him, and a guy named Louie, probably his illegitimate son, who helps him spy on the privacy of the local elite. ”
"He has ......"
Originally, Durin said that it was just a small talk before eating, but after talking for more than an hour, Dove "droved" them to the dining room.
Buck was shocked the whole time, then numb, and then excited. This is the life he longs for, he is finally not the Buck who bragged to his friends in Illian that he was good friends with Doolin, he has really blended in. Although he was still a little uncomfortable with discussing murder when he first joined the group, he had tried his best to accept these things.
The dinner was rich, except for Doolin's one, which Dove cooked for him himself, and the rest were semi-finished products ordered from the restaurant outside in the afternoon, which were just heated and sprinkled with some spices.
After eating, a group of people took a break and watched TV for a while.
After Nasha's return to the George family, the Star of Empire is currently managed by Nasha's secretary, who has seen the ability of Durin, and there must be no problem in keeping the company on track. The reason why these people were not replaced was to better allow the George family to fall into the water tank he had prepared according to Doolin's plan.
In addition to some interesting things that happened in the midterm elections, the most attractive thing about the new TV content is that the familiar faces make lewd jokes, and the cold jokes that don't touch the ground play out the embarrassing plot of each other. But on the contrary, this TV series, which was "terrible" in Doolin's opinion, received unanimous praise, and some federal people called to order a thousand sets from the first issue, and many people over there liked this kind of content expression.
After a short break, the conversation began to continue again, and Durin continued to assign tasks, and everyone seemed extraordinarily relaxed.
