The smell of the sea in his nostrils made Mr. Pitt very irritable, and luck seemed to have been with him ever since he began to woo Durin.

In the eyes of ordinary people, Mr. Pitt is a successful and very low-key businessman, he rarely shows the ugly face of those wealthy businessmen, most of the time he seems to be mild-mannered, and he will lovingly leave some change when he meets a homeless man or a beggar.

Some say that Mr. Pete's business is not very large, because he cannot find the arrogance that comes with the flow of money in hundreds, thousands, or even tens of thousands of dollars per minute, and he has not traveled at home lately, and may even go bankrupt.

It is also said that Mr. Pitt is actually very rich, very, very kind, money is just a number for him, and he no longer needs to prove that he is rich through arrogant behavior, which is only something that shallow nouveau riche does.

He was a true gentleman, so amiable and polite, that the residents of the community would happily greet him whenever and wherever they saw him.

But now, he was irritable, and the reason for his irritability was that his career had been ruined like never before, and that his plans had been ruined and that he had drifted away from the center of the world, that people had stopped dancing around him, and that he was about to fall off the top of the mountain.

Many people just think that he is a successful man, and they only know about him for what he shows, but in fact this Mr. Pitt is revered as a "divine messenger" in other places.

He is the apostle of the gods, the legend of walking in the world in place of the gods, and the ...... of the most pious servants of the Mother Earth goddess Audella.

That's right, he's the spike of the Cult pyramid.

Since the failure to win over Durin, a series of problems have followed, first the internal gathering of the Soil God Cult has been infiltrated, and then their lair has been destroyed, and a large number of precious materials have been seized and sealed by the authorities before they can be transported away.

The Soil God Cult turned from light to darkness in time, completely lurking and preparing to wait for the opportunity to move, with the influence and history of the Earth God Cult in the west, they wanted to hide, and no one could find them.

Pete knew the bad temper of the western cowboys, and they might consider saying a word unless the officials asked them to ask them about it like old men, and they wouldn't say a word even if the gun was on their heads.

At first, he thought that as long as they could lurk for three or five years, there might not be no chance of resurrection after the limelight passed, and although their lair had been destroyed, there were still some secret bases still in operation, and the list of important members of the Earth God Cult was still in hand.

All it takes is a phone call and a message to spread the word, and the Mother Earth Throne can make a comeback.

But he didn't expect that Du Lin was actually in charge of Ambiluo State, and under his instigation, those stubborn cowboys and farmers kept pouring into the police station like licking dogs to report the Sakure believers he knew, and the Sakuri believers lurking in Ambiluo were basically all arrested.

This bad situation is still spreading to other places, and when a group of people start to take the initiative to do something unconventional, people will have an inexplicable impulse while watching.

It only takes one person to take the lead, and this kind of unconventional behavior will become a trend that quickly sweeps through the surrounding area.

In this situation, Pete went to the Federation, contacted his long-time partners, and devised a plan that came close to perfection - he planned to assassinate Durin in order to cause political change in the state of Ambiluo, and then profit from it to make a comeback of the Sakuros.

It's obvious that once the West loses a strong governor like Dohrin, the soft guys who succeed him will definitely not be recognized by the cowboys in the West, and then under the laws of religious freedom, they can completely change their names, such as God the Earth and re-establish a religion.

The plan was successful, and Durin was assassinated, but it also failed because the result of the assassination was not happy, and he escaped the disaster, which also meant that Pete did not fulfill his promise to the founding family.

By assassinating Durin, the situation in the western part of the empire was chaotic, and the founding family planned to export some dangerous ideas and weapons in the turbulent west, which they had been doing in the past, and some of the restoration organizations in the empire were basically supported by the consortium of the federation and the founding family.

They will transfer a large amount of funds to these extremist organizations through some special channels every year, so that they can develop their strength and power, involve the energy of the imperial intelligence department, and can also relieve the pressure of some federal spies living in the empire.

But because Pete's plan failed, there was no turmoil in the west at all, and the so-called "taking advantage of the chaos" became a joke, and a series of collaborations were thus stranded.

Pitt was looking for an opportunity until Maggs left the empire for the first time in two decades to visit abroad, and he thought it had come.

The assassination of Maggs created a fierce conflict between the international situation, and then supplemented by a series of assassination methods to provoke irreconcilable contradictions between countries, and finally ignited the fuse of war.

Once the war starts, people will not pay attention to whether there will be some old faces in the empire, they will only focus on the war.

But the plan still failed, Magus did not die, no matter how badly injured he was now, as long as he did not die, then everything was in vain.

This made Pete very distressed and angry, and it seemed that from the time he met Dorin, everything was different, and bad luck haunted him.

Now, the "Odella" are not satisfied with his idleness and incompetence, and some people can't help but jump if they can't make some noise soon.

Those "Odella" are actually the real investors of the Cult of the Earth God, some domestic and foreign consortia, including some foreign dignitaries.

The rise of the empire is definitely a very good thing in the eyes of the people of the empire, but it is not good news in the eyes of others.

About a decade ago, when the empire began to gradually recover, some people contacted him and used him, a cult of the earth gods who cheated money and sex, to eat and drink, and did something not very upright.

From being passively at the mercy of these investors at the beginning, to gradually becoming stronger and then actively raising investors, Pete's talents have been fully tapped and developed by himself.

There are more than 30 organizations or individual investors who will give him enough funds for activities every year, and what he needs to do is to create a certain amount of influence, and at the same time attract a large number of social and political leaders to the Soil God Cult, and then create some kind of power to control these people, or cooperate with them.

The empire's business secrets, political secrets, military secrets, and even lists of agents lurking in various countries are leaking out of the way unnoticed.

In order to ensure that he could turn those people into "his own people", Pete made his best efforts and attempts, even at the expense of seizing them by fulfilling the wishes of these cultists.

For example, in those special spaces he made, whenever a cultist was venting his crazy emotions, raping certain targets that excited him, abusing and killing some people who had offended him, or even pushing a train behind someone else's ass or being pushed by someone else behind his ass, ...... it.

These artificially created handles have become very effective weapons for the Cult to control some of the dignitaries and celebrities in society, and many of them have become the Cult's most loyal partners and followers.

If there was no Du Lin, there would not be so many bad luck that followed, and his current life would still be very happy, especially these things that made him feel that the emperor might not be as comfortable as he was.

Now, everything is shattered, dreams have woken up, and if it weren't for the fact that Pete still has a lot of evidence of connections with various organizations in various countries, and a whole lot of political and celebrity handles, he would have been swept into the garbage heap a long time ago.

These are his means of self-preservation, and they are also the capital for his comeback, and now, all he has to do is wait, wait for a mess.

Mr. Pete, who came back to his senses, drank black tea and looked at the turbulent sea in the distance, occasionally some seagulls flew by the sky in the distance, and small boats came and went in and out of the port, a very busy scene.

Spring is the time when the fish spawn, and a large number of returning fish begin to return from the open sea to the inshore waters, which is God's blessing to the fishermen, so that they can easily catch countless fish.

Every time a ship returns, someone comes up to discuss the price, and most of the fish is quickly sent to the country for sale with some other products, while others are dried and hung in some of the city's specialty shops.

Of course, the most important ones are the eggs, which will be worth far more than their mothers.

Fish exposed to the air will emit a faint fishy smell, and when the number of fish piled up together reaches a certain level, the fishy smell will start to become a little stinky.

When a gust of sea breeze blew, the smell of the sea and the smell of seafood was like an invisible fist, and gave Pete a punch, and he drank the coffee in the cup a little rudely, and quickly left the coffee shop.

This is the east coast, and the ghost in the west can't stay in that hellish place, and the devil knows what bad luck will happen to expose himself.

Not only does he have his own property here, but he also has a new identity, and every time he leaves here, he leaves in the name of "business trip", and when he returns, the business trip is naturally over.

So it doesn't feel abrupt to come back after a long absence, people have long been accustomed to it, and it also allows him to integrate more perfectly into the city and his new identity.

After taking a few steps, he frowned and looked at his leather shoes, there was an obvious gray-white mark on them, I don't know where they were rubbed, probably in a café.

He felt his foot touch something when he was bent his legs just now, probably a table leg or something.

Man is a strange creature, and in order to survive in poverty, they can swallow even rotten food without hesitation.

But when they become rich and have status, they become extremely picky, and even become a mental illness, and many people have this situation, but it is not the same whether it is serious or not.

Pete looked around and walked over to a row of shoe-brushing children on the side of the road, these children in small formal suits and plaid caps were very good now, and more often on holidays.

Most of them are engaged in simple jobs such as brushing shoes, the price is not high, everyone can accept it, and people are very patient and compassionate with their children, which makes these children always have a good business.

He walked over to a child and sat down, took a fifty-cent coin from his pocket, and threw it into the shoebox with the shoe-shine tools on the side, "The best oil!"

The child's eyes lit up, and an irrepressible smile suddenly appeared on his face, "I will give you the best service, sir, thank you for your generosity!"

He neatly disposed of the dust on Pete's shoes, and then took out a tube of shoe polish that had been marked in the store for forty-nine cents, and Pete retracted his gaze with satisfaction, and took a newspaper from the newspaper shelf next to him, and read it.

The erected newspaper completely separated him from the child, and he didn't notice that the child looked at his hand holding the newspaper with a strange expression, and then lowered his head to continue his work.

On Pete's index and middle fingers, there are two circles of lighter skin marks, which are where he used to wear rings. In order to ensure that his hiding would not be discovered, he took off the two rings that he had worn for seven or eight years, and did not give others any chance.

About 20 minutes later, the child said okay, Pete put down the newspaper and looked at his leather shoes, nodded very satisfied, the light on them was almost able to shine the shadow of a person, the child wiped it very carefully.

He was just about to stand up and leave, when the boy asked with some embarrassment, "Sir, I see that you seem to have a watch, can you tell me what time it is, and I have to go back at noon to make lunch for my family." ”

If an adult asks him the time, he can point to the shops around him, or simply say he doesn't have any watches or pocket watches.

But this was a child, a sensible child, a poor and sensible child who had just finished shining his shoes and had to go back to cook for his family, and he took out a very delicate pocket watch with the watch chain fastened on the inside of the formal suit.

The outer ring of the pocket watch is white gold, the inner ring is gold, the front is inlaid with many broken stones, faintly you can see a vague pattern, and the reverse side is a delicate relief, carved with a woman's head, just like the gold in the inner circle and the white gold in the outer ring floating behind her head like a halo.

"10:49 ......", he put away his pocket watch, looked at the child who began to collect things, thought about it, took out two one-dollar bills, threw them in the child's toolbox, and left here.

He knew that giving a dollar or two would at most make his "companions" or those adults think he was a lucky child, and that if he gave too much, say five dollars or ten dollars, or ten dollars, it would be a disaster for that child.

For a little money to kill and be killed in the tragedy was too much, so he gave only two pieces, not much, but just right.

Yes, just right!
