"Is there anyone else who disagrees?", Durin walked between Sophia and Bartow, looked at the crowd, and nodded for a moment, "Very well, gentlemen, ladies, it seems that we have reached agreement on this point, and I am glad that at least my efforts are worth it." When he looked at José, he handed him a pure white silk, and he shook it away, revealing a small silver sword that reflected the sunlight and was particularly dazzling.

He gripped the ornate dagger in his left hand and the blade of the sword in his right hand, then pulled the small sword out of his hand. Blood dripped down his fist, and José waited at Dorin's side with a cart full of white silk. Durin handed the sword to Sophia, who stood up with a smile. No matter when and where, her smile is always as peaceful as the face of the Spring Breeze, not at all as vicious as the Black Widow in those mouths.

She also slit the palm of her right hand, clasped it tightly with Dorin's hand, and kissed Dorin's forehead, as well as the back of his hand. José handed Sophia a white silk, and she wrapped the palm of her right hand twice before returning to her seat. The little sword was passed down from generation to generation, and people kept coming to exercise the ancient tradition, to bless Durin, and to respect him.

When the little sword spun around and fell into Barto's hand, he smiled heartily, "Mr. Doolin, you are a convincing person, I have never questioned that. What you said is very reasonable, every nation must have its own beliefs and its own sustenance. We didn't have it before, but now we do, if there's anything I need to do, let me know!", he pinched his palm, blood gushing out of the mouth more than an inch long, and he clasped Durin's hand tightly together without any care.

From this day on, from this moment on, Doolin is their leader.

It was a very smooth meeting, at least that's what Dührin thought, he made the rules, not to restrain anyone, let alone to set up anyone, he wanted to be more than just a moonshiner, a tycoon in the eyes of the people, and there was a lot more he needed and had to do.

Staggered the day, the agents who came to the meeting all left, and even Budi's somewhat rebellious son looked at Durin with fear in his eyes. He had never considered himself a cowardly man, but when he saw that Durin did not hesitate to shoot and kill a "leader" who was about the same as his father, and still had the respect of others, he knew that he would never be able to catch up with this guy who was a few years older than him.

So he lowered his head, and when faced with something he couldn't resist, bowing his head was not a sign of weakness.

After sending these people away, the manor became a little deserted again, and everything else would go according to plan. In Ilian itself, Doolin has established five all-free schools for the Guartes, including a secondary school, while he has also opened three low-cost hospitals in the Fifth District, also for the Guartes. The mayor also took the initiative to cut the ribbon for one of the largest hospitals and commended Doolin for his efforts in the construction of the Illian area.

The fact is that when a person's importance to a certain area exceeds a certain limit, some small problems, even larger ones, are no longer a problem.

Especially with the mid-term elections just around the corner, in order to ensure local stability, the city hall will not make any drastic moves, not to mention that the benefits of Doolin to Illian far outweigh the harm?

This is why Doolin demanded that all agents build schools and hospitals, and that this was the reason for making things more convenient for the people. For the whole society, the Guartes are still the bottom people, and any contribution to the bottom of the society is a very positive behavior. It's like building a school in a slum area that is completely free of charge, and building a school in a wealthy area of the imperial capital, which may have the same purpose and result, but the social repercussions are completely different.

Now that all localities have to vote for the midterm elections, the weight of the proxies will be much heavier than usual, and politicians will also come up with some policies in order to win over these proxies who have a lot of votes. These policies will certainly not have much impact in the short term, but with the fermentation of time, many insignificant policies will form a ladder, slowly raising the status of the Guartes.

Each election year and midterm election year will be a step that will lead the nation to a new class.

On the fourth day after Durin sent off these agents, Scott, on behalf of the Mayor, wanted to talk to Durin about it. This is a very rare opportunity, in the past, only Du Lin went to ask to see the mayor, when did the mayor take the initiative to ask someone?

This is the power of status, wealth, prestige, and so on when a series of factors come together! a force that even the ruling class must respect!

The two made an appointment to meet at the beach, and the mayor changed into an ordinary one, with a hat, and the average person would not really guess that this person was the most powerful person in Illion when he saw him. He saw Durin and waved, and the two of them found a bench and sat down.

"I heard that the scenery was infinite two days ago!", the mayor laughed as he said, and more than 30 yachts parked on the sea surface of Illian gave Illian a lot of face, and many tourists were talking about whether there were any rich people who organized a group to travel to Ilian, which played a role in promoting the positive image of the city. The more wealthy people who come here, the more it shows the superiority of the Illian region.

When he talks about this, he also starts with a topic that is pleasant for both parties.

Du Lin also laughed, "I just brought the agent to talk about how to start the work in the second half of the year, but I didn't expect it to alarm you!"

"It's not alarming or not, so many yachts are crowded together, and people will always see it. The mayor said and shifted the topic to other places, "Dulin, you have invested in so many projects in Ilian, built schools and hospitals, and are also very active in social charity activities, have you ever thought about going further?"

Durin scratched his eyebrows, "What do you mean?"

The mayor pointed to the direction of the imperial capital, maybe he didn't mean that, but Du Lin felt that it was, "The New Party has always encouraged businessmen to drive the regional economy by building factories and other ways, many businessmen have done well, and some businessmen with a strong sense of social responsibility have chosen the path of politics, do you have any interest in this aspect?"

The mayor said that there was a certain reason for this, originally he thought that Durin really wanted to cooperate with the George family, which meant that Durin also had enough political influence. The mayor's mentor within the new party told him that if so, then he should be friends with Doolin, who could help him run for governor if necessary. But I didn't expect this guy to stop doing it after a false shot, and the mayor put out this thought.

It wasn't until the past six months that Durin had provided a large amount of tax revenue to the local Illian, which made him very face-saving among his colleagues, and his former thoughts came to mind again. It is not impossible for businessmen to enter politics in this era, especially since the New Party has a very open-minded attitude towards businessmen entering politics and welcomes them very much. The reason is simple, businessmen have money, and with money they are able to do many things that others can't.

Whether or not a region is built well or not, and whether there are political achievements, is not to listen to whether the residents living in the local area respect and approve the city hall, but to see how much the economic construction achievements of a place have increased compared with the past.

If a pure politician is thrown into a backward place, he may not be able to achieve much in his life, but if he is thrown into a rich businessman, he may be able to see results in three or five years.

At the same time, the rich in politics are very willing to "exchange" their status for money in order to gain higher status and power within the party. First of all, this is not a sale, but a donation of political donations within the party, and in order for the new party to gain more advantages in the competition with the old party, donations are allowed and acquiesced to exist.

Running a party actually costs a lot of money, especially in an election year, and the astronomical amount of millions can be said to be consumed silently, so the top level of the party also hopes that someone can share some of it for everyone.

Finally, the mayor will have to compete for the governorship in the next election year, and his mentors and friends can help him politically, but in terms of funding, he needs to raise it himself, which is the root of the topic he talks to Doolin.

He introduced Durin into the New Party, and as Dürin's guide, he could naturally get Dühring's reward, which is an unspoken rule similar to the "Convention".

He looked at Durin intently, and Durin was really a little surprised this time. He originally thought that the mayor asked him out to talk about it, and wanted to take something out of his pocket, but he didn't expect to throw a hat at him.

Do you wear it or not?

His mind was racing, analyzing the pros and cons.

The advantage, of course, will be that after being in power, his influence will expand, and he will be more dominant over a region, as long as he can manage it well, it is possible to climb to the top position in the end.

The disadvantage is that his business may become a means for some people to attack him in the future, and if he wants to climb to a certain height, it is inevitable to separate these current businesses, which is something he is not so willing to do.

He pondered for a moment, then looked back at the mayor, "What do I get, what do you need?"
