Chapter 1175: Multiple Choice Questions
The fact that Dilsina is Ophelia's mother sounds like nonsense, but it makes it clear that Dilsina is capable of interfering with Dรผrin's decisions.
After a moment of silence, Bowers replied cautiously, "I'll go and find out what this matter is going to be, and give me a few days!"
A satisfied smile suddenly appeared on the visitor's face, he took the initiative to stand up, stretched out his hand and shook Bowworths, "Then I wait for your good news, and I won't disturb your rest, goodbye!"
He bowed slightly and was sent to the door by Boworth before leaving.
After going back to the study and sitting for a while, reading the book for a while, and finding that he couldn't read it at all, he decided to go to bed early today.
While lying on the bed, his wife asked curiously, but he didn't say anything.
In fact, there is something else behind this incident, and there is a "person he knows" in the visitor's words.
The man was actually Bowworth's son, the child of him and his previous wife.
It stands to reason that as the leader of the New Party, the "second man" of the empire, he should let his children inherit his career and embark on the political path, but he did not choose to do so.
The reason is very simple, the game of politics is too demanding on intelligence and talent, and even Maggs did not easily involve his family, let alone his mediocre son.
So he got a good job for his son early on through some connections, and now he is a senior partner in a large company.
It may seem like a renunciation, but it's actually a form of protection.
This path is not so easy to follow, and in the past, political losers often faced death.
The modern political environment has improved dramatically, and it is almost impossible to see the end of the past, but it is still not very good.
Instead of doing nothing all your life and being afraid, it is better to enjoy the happiness brought by wealth easily.
At dawn the next day, Bowworth drove to the New Party building, where he pondered for a while and found a friend with whom he had a fairly good relationship.
In Bowworth's office, the two turned on the phone's foreign function to let his friend talk to Doolin.
Du Lin was already in the imperial capital at this time, and as a member of the organization with a relatively important status within the New Party, his rank and treatment were enough for him to enjoy the high-end temporary residence prepared by the New Party.
The New Party built a villa-like living area outside the Imperial Capital Ring Road, with relatively small houses and no gardens.
In addition to those who live here regularly, there are also vacant houses ready to welcome temporary tenants.
Durin had come to the imperial capital for official business, and since the villa in Oak Bay was being used for Melissa, and there was a big construction going on near the manor in the new town, he simply lived here.
After the new party's party service office helps Du Lin to resettle, there will be a public resettlement information for the top level, telling the top party that a temporary villa used to receive members of important organizations is occupied, and if there are other arrangements in the future, the adjustment will be adjusted.
It was because of this process and information that Bowers was able to quickly grasp Doolin's traces, and he was able to find the phone number and call it.
"I'm Doolin ......"
Doolin's voice rang over the phone's external microphone, and Boworth frowned, hating the voice, and at the same time held his breath and gestured for his friend to continue.
"Hello, Lord Doolin, I am very presumptuous to disturb you at this time, but I have some important matters that I need to communicate with you. โ
"You say. โ
"That's right, I have a project in the state of Ambiluo and now I'm in some trouble......", he was interrupted by Doolin before he could finish his sentence.
"I'm sorry, now the governor of Ambiluo is temporarily replaced by Mr. Schnodder, I haven't returned to perform my duties, please contact Mr. Schnoder about Ambiluo, good luck and goodbye!"
The call quickly became busy and then cut off.
There was no obvious change of mood on Bowers's face, he pursed his mouth tightly, his brain spun rapidly in his skull, and rubbed electricity, making his small hair look like it was about to stand on end.
After about six, seven, eighty, or ninety minutes, he came to his senses, got up, thanked his friend, and sent him away.
Doolin's attitude was not unusual, Bowworth was too familiar with that simple style, but Durin's words made him feel that there was an indescribable problem.
It can be said that Bowers has been at the top of the New Party for so many years, and even if he has little power in his hands, he has at least been the third person in the New Party for a long time, and is now the leader of the New Party.
As a person with a certain amount of power, he is also more aware of the terrible attraction of power to men.
The disagreement between him and Maggs comes from the change of power, even if they have been working together for decades, in the end, for the sake of power, it can be very unpleasant.
Durin was also a power-hungry man, and his character can be seen in the way he ruled various places.
Suppressing trade unions and expelling chambers of commerce to ensure that he is the only person who has the right to speak in the territory, how can such a power-hungry person hand over power to others for safekeeping?
If you think about it from another perspective, Bowers felt that the first thing he did when he returned home was to let Schnoder get out, but Doolin did not do so, which is obviously against Doolin's character, then is there anything unknown to him?
On the one hand, there was a possible danger, and on the other hand, there was a great benefit, and Boworth was in a dilemma.
If he is the leader of a new party with real power, then this matter ends here, and even if there are more benefits in it, it is far less than the benefits that power brings him.
If this incident is compared to the water of a swimming pool, then power is the faucet.
You may not be able to get too much income in a short period of time, but as long as the faucet is still in your own hands, the income will be endless, and one day the water flowing out can fill the entire swimming pool and there is a lot of surplus.
But the question that makes him struggle now is whether the faucet in his hand is really just an ordinary household faucet, or the kind of faucet that doesn't flow much water.
In addition, the status of the three chairmen of the internal committee of the New Party has been unprecedentedly improved, and it can be said that they are on an equal level with him, and they hold more power than him.
Strictly speaking, he, the first person of the New Party, may still be the same as before, and can only be regarded as the No. 2 person, or even the No. 3 or No. 4 person.
This makes him become entangled, and when people can't get satisfaction in one aspect, they will look for another way to seek satisfaction.
He knew very well that he could not sit in this position for too long, and he even suspected that Maggs's voluntary retirement was also used to deal with him and prevent him from being re-elected for a long time.
When the time comes to his next term, he will be about the same age as Maggs when he retired, and if he wants to seek long-term re-election, the aristocracy will certainly not compromise, and public opinion will not support his re-election.
This is a very common social phenomenon, and people will think that the elderly will be more stubborn and rigid, unable to keep up with the times, and lack the spirit of adventure.
In addition to Mags's example, he must also take the initiative to ask for retirement to cater to Maggs's exemplary behavior and ensure that he is not stained on his virtues.
After eight years like a puppet, he will retire, which makes Bowers very unhappy, but there is nothing he can do.
During the time of Maggs's rule, no one in the new party could surpass him in prestige and status, and when his era was over, his own era would end before it began.
After so many years of struggle...... , is it to get such a prefix at the end - the second leader of the new party of the Reich, Lord Bowers.
After a long struggle, he picked up the phone again, dialed multiple numbers, and determined something he couldn't judge.
Finally, after hesitating for a few minutes, he dialed a number he didn't want to call.
After a short wait, the voice on the phone made Boworth slightly distracted, the voice was a little deeper than the clear and translucent of his youth, but also a lot more emotional.
"This is the ...... of Dilshina"
He took the earpiece and sighed imperceptibly, "It's me, Bowworth." โ
There was a long silence on the phone, and just as Bowers was about to say something to defuse the awkward atmosphere, Dilsina spoke again.
"I thought you wouldn't call me when you died. Hearing it, there was a hint of sarcasm in Dilshina's tone.
Bowers, who was a young man at the time, joined the New Party Secret Society and became an important member, and was deeply trusted by the aristocratic faction led by Maggs, and had a bright future.
To be recognized as a commoner by the nobility was a very incredible thing in the feudal period.
The high-spirited Bowers seemed to see a golden avenue appear in front of him, and he became more confident, even a little conceited.
When he always thought that what he lacked from the aristocratic elite was a gap in status, he turned his mind to Mags's sister.
If he can marry Dilshina, he will not only become an imperial nobleman, but also be able to stabilize his relationship with the New Party and Mags, and have a stage to realize the value of his life.
But Dilshina's words plunged him into the abyss, so much so that he said something unpleasant as he left.
Something like viciousness is no longer a cruel word, and he uses his seemingly proud self-esteem to face the pride of the nobles, but unfortunately, he loses completely.
