Chapter 924: Running for election
After Durin urged him twice and told him that he had lost a lot of money during the time he had hesitated, Merlin smiled and said a number—two million.
Two million is not a small amount, and even if people's incomes have increased a lot, two million is an astronomical amount, and it may take a middle-class family more than 100 years to save that much money after maintaining the necessary expenses. But to say a lot, for those entrepreneurs, this may be a year's profit, of course, the miners in the west disdain this, digging for half a year to make so much money.
Durin didn't immediately agree, he beckoned to Denisha in the distance, and the little girl immediately ran upside down. Since they became the heads of the family, the power of life and death in the Hill family is in the hands of the two sisters, and there is a feeling of raising their eyebrows. Although he felt that some of Dorin's methods were a little excessive, after taking control of the family's power, Denisha gradually began to adapt to becoming ruthless in some ways. After all, the ass decides the head, when she needs to be responsible for every member of the entire family, when she needs to face hundreds of years of family glory.
A little personal gain or loss, what is counted?
She finally understood why every family always needs some people to sacrifice "for" the family, not the family gave up on them, it was they who gave up the family!
“boss!”
"Merlin is going to buy a machine shop to make agricultural machinery, and you are here to help him set up the company during this time. Although Dinisha has been working in a bank, it is precisely because of this job that she has a certain relationship with all walks of life and has enough understanding. Merlin has never worked in a business, so it is not necessary to start a company rashly...... No, it's sure to be a lot of trouble. He didn't have time to help Merlin solve these problems every day, so he might as well hand it over to Denisha.
Although the best way to do this is for Merlin to wrestle on his own, to get his hands dirty, to get his way up and to become a good businessman—that's what ordinary people do. With Durin's current power and wealth, he can completely ignore this aspect of the problem, and the mature team will solve all the troubles for Merlin. Even if he fails, that's not a problem, and money is never a problem. Durin's current financial resources are fully enough to support him, and Merlin makes mistakes while doing it, and it's a big thing to start over, anyway, what he has is money.
For his brothers and sisters, Durin helped them wherever he could, and he did everything he could. But help is definitely not forever, nor is it all-round, after all, they are brothers and sisters, he is not their father, and he cannot care about them for the rest of their lives. If you can do it well, it's the best, and if you can't do it well, maybe being a rich idler is also a good choice, of course, Duhrin prefers that they can develop independently. This may seem paradoxical, but there is no way around it.
These people are glorified in Him, and they may be gloomy because of Him.
Dohrin then told him that the money would be transferred to his bank account at a later date.
After sending Denisha away, Durin quietly warned Merlin that since he had decided to get married, he should not make a big fuss, otherwise Mr. Kersma would come and beat him. Mr. Kersma had complained to him about Merlin's last marriage, and it was clear that Mr. Kersma was very unhappy with this.
Sending Merlin away again, Brilon finally got the opportunity, and the two went into a small room behind the church, and the priest left very satisfied after receiving a donation of two hundred dollars from Durin, and said that he would inform God of the gratitude of the lost lamb to the Lord, and that he would not come for at least an hour, which was a very interesting priest.
The two sat down in their chairs, and Brylan opened up to talk about something more intimate, "You know what, Harry is finished. ”
Du Lin was suddenly stunned, he really didn't know about this, and couldn't help but be curious, "What's wrong with him? I heard that he still has a chance some time ago, how can it be finished now?"
Breyelan smiled, gave Durin a cigarette, and lit one himself, "The cabinet decided to dismiss Harry from his current position, and at the committee meeting, the chairman was very annoyed by Harry's bribery and duty crimes, thinking that he had smeared the positive image of the new party, and decided to give him a certain punishment, he was demoted, and no new transfer plan was given." ”
As far as the empire as a whole is concerned, Maggs is the first person in the empire, the prime minister of the cabinet, and holds the destiny of the whole country in his hands, so the second in line is the chairman of the New Party Committee, and the third is Bowers, the party whip. Now that Maggs has not taken a stand, both the chairman of the New Party Committee and Bowers have agreed to the treatment of Harry, which in fact shows that Maggs has shown his attitude through silence, and he also agrees with the committee to do so. Otherwise, he would have saved Harry from the current situation, but he didn't do so, obviously intending to give up on Harry.
Harry's affair was indeed quite big, and as a bystander, Durin completely forgot that this was actually a good play directed by him. Without anyone knowing, he is now a spectator. At the same time that he was expelled from public office, he was also expelled from the New Party because of Bowworth's strong demands. Maggs didn't speak at that time, whether there was some unknown dirty and shady scene in this Du Lin didn't bother to guess, obviously yes.
Now that Harry has been abandoned, he is the same as he was at the beginning, and if Maggs didn't play any role, he wouldn't believe it if he killed Durin. If Mags really had a close relationship with this old man, he would have ensured that Harry would not shake his position in the new party, but he did not do so, and this is worth remembering.
There are a lot of problems within the new party, Duhrin has not been in the party for a long time, and he can feel that there are certain problems from top to bottom, and Harry's abandonment is definitely not an isolated case, nor is it an isolated incident, there must be a deeper reason behind this.
Durin raised his eyebrows and didn't speak, Brearlan smiled and didn't care, he continued, "I have a not-so-mature idea, and I still have a ...... before the next general election Eighteen months, do you think I'll be able to run for governor?"
Breyeren Kenben didn't think about this issue when Durin didn't leave before, because Durin was Harry's descendant and Maggs's descendant, and no matter how they chosen, they couldn't choose him Breyelan's head. But now that Durin is gone, Harry is finished, and the new mayor of Otis is resigned, nothing has been successful so far. On the contrary, he turned the tide when Namilinders began to decline, directly and drastically changed the economic structure of the city, making the city glow with new light, and he was definitely among the best in the state in terms of personal ability.
If someone can support him, it may not be impossible to take the governor's position. Once he can take the position of governor, it means that he has truly entered the center of the political arena, and his seat in the new party will also be moved to the edge of the conference table, and he will not sit against the wall every day.
The whole family is beginning to consider whether this is a possibility, and has secretly hired a campaign team to start formulating a campaign strategy.
Durin's expression was a little dazed, he had been thinking that there were still two years before the general election, but today's words from Breyeren woke him up, and there were only eighteen months left before the next general election.
Suddenly, time was running out, as if someone had pinched his balls, giving him a slight tingling sensation of swelling.
He came back to his senses, pursed his lips and thought about it for a moment, and said, "It's not a problem at all, it doesn't conflict with my interests, but I have an idea......"
The two talked secretly in the church for a long time, and after the wedding outside, everyone dispersed, and it was not until one o'clock in the afternoon that the two came out of the church. They went back to the city center together to have a bite to eat, and then Durin returned to the city of Otis. In the process of discussing with Blelon, he already felt that his previous plan was successful, and at least it was right to pull the Hill sisters into his circle.
He could clearly feel that Blaylan's attitude towards himself had changed, it was a sense of identity, a gesture of reciprocity. This could not have existed in the past, and even when Blayren followed him behind his ass every day to see the development of Otis City, learning how to build the city as a student, Durin could feel that although he was very modest, he still looked down on himself in his bones.
Now, that feeling is gone.
A conversation with Brearon reminded him of Ernst's previous urgency, and Durin realized that he had not yet turned around in some ways, or that it was the first time in his life after all, and that he had not yet experienced many things. Thankfully, this conversation with Breyelan made him understand the urgency of time.
After returning to the room, Durin made a call to Kevin, and when the voice sounded, Durin directly interrupted his nonsense, "Do you know a reliable campaign team?"
Political campaigning is actually a commercial act, to put it simply, it is to spend money to buy a sense of identity, from politicians asking workers to eat chicken, to paying them to go to certain places where children can't go, and only adults can go to have adult nights, in fact, this can be seen as a kind of transaction.
Upfront transactions, as well as post-transactions.
Everything that involves a deal involves the law, and every campaign team has a great team of lawyers, and Kevin, as the biggest cancer in the judicial industry, should know a team that can be trusted.
Kevin was silent for a moment, the sound of the door closing came from the receiver, and after a moment he asked, "Are you going to run?"
