Chapter 1218 Rising
"With so many people dead, the people always have to give some explanation, what are you going to do?", Kevin sipped his coffee and played with the refined lion-headed crutch in his hand.
The handshake of the cane is a lion with its fangs exposed, and the teeth in the lion's mouth are carved and inlaid with gemstones, including two diamond eyes.
The whole is made of pure gold, which is not only beautiful, but also very valuable...... Durin didn't want to discuss Kevin's taste, and it was understandable that his mentality had changed somewhat since he broke his leg.
It's like people with poor eyesight who always want to wear their eyes to cover up their defects, and people who don't speak well tend to be more inclined to communicate enthusiastically to prove that they are good at speaking.
After Kevin's difficulty walking, he has changed a lot of crutches, each of which is very beautiful and expensive, and many people will pay attention to this crutch first when they notice him.
Perhaps, his purpose is to make people feel that with such a crutch, even if they are lame, they will not suffer, which is not impossible.
After the fight in the Yagur Mountains, Durin brought Kevin over, and there were some things that Kevin needed to do.
Now it's not a question of the Ambiluo State Mining Company going to sue him for Doolin, it's a question for Doolin to sue this company and all the shareholders.
Dilsina had been arrested and imprisoned, and with the help of agents from the Imperial Bureau of Investigation, she quickly recalled the context of the incident, which was then rewritten by the agents, and she described it herself, confirming a testimony.
In view of the alleged violations of state law by several shareholders of the Ambiluo State Mining Company and the establishment of illegal private armed violence against law enforcement teams, Doolin has made it clear at the state government meeting that all those involved must be arrested, and have applied for some arrest warrants from the Empire.
In particular, Harry, the representative of the Southern Consortium, as long as the Imperial Ministry of Justice approves it, it will issue a highest-red-level wanted warrant and offer a reward for Harry.
Some problems at the higher level are being dealt with, and some problems at the bottom must also be dealt with as soon as possible, just like Kevin said, so many people died at once, and the people must always be explained.
This people, mostly those who belonged to the mining companies in the Golden Valley conflict, whose family members died inexplicably in an armed resistance, and who will not sit still and fully believe the official word, regardless of what the local and state governments say.
A number of people have now gathered outside the state government in the name of the families of the victims, holding signs calling for severe punishment of the perpetrators, putting a lot of pressure on the staff of the state government.
Durin poured himself a glass of wine, he didn't drink much, but sometimes he drank some, he stood by the window with the glass, looked at the people gathered outside the door of the state government, smiled and pointed at the people through the window.
"Can you believe it, ten out of a hundred people are really sad, ten are instigated, ten are creating antagonism, and the remaining seventy are here just for money. He turned back to the couch and sat down, took a sip of the wine in the quilt, and put the cup back on the coffee table.
"Among the people who died in the clashes in the Golden Valley of Yagur Mountain, except for the group of security guards they had mobilized from other places, the rest of the people were local gold diggers and former mine guards, and you should have a little idea of what kind of virtues these people have. ”
"And how ridiculous it is that we have done nothing wrong, openly confronted the state law enforcement team, and have violently resisted, and injured and killed the members of the law enforcement team, and now these people are themselves victims. ”
Kevin has some different views on this, "Even if what you say is the truth and the truth, but the attitude of society is more inclined to the side of the weak, once public opinion is created, even if there are some things that you are not wrong, in order to take care of the emotions of most people in society and appease their indignation, the final result may not be what you need." ”
Du Lin sneered, slightly sarcastic, "If a murderer wants to murder someone else but is killed again, the real victim has to be tried by the law for this, this is the defilement of the law, the humiliation of justice, and the greatest injustice to the whole society!"
He leaned back, "Catch what should be caught, what should be closed, of course, when we need legal assistance, we should also help them." For example, helping them to ask for pensions and compensation from the Ambiluo State Mining Company, which is what they have to do, to go to the right people and ask for money. ”
Kevin glanced at Doolin, "You're so kind? Honestly, I almost believed what you said, just a little bit!"
He laughed a few times, "I heard that you have applied to freeze the bank account of the mining company, right, there are almost more than 30 million cash ...... in it."
Durin looked upright, "I'm not the kind of person you think!"
Of course, Durin is not that kind of person, and it would be too ugly to swallow this money, and the wealth he has now is enough for him to ignore it.
However, since the money has entered the company registered in the state of Ambiluo, no matter what happens to the company, the money should remain here.
The municipal finances are not so abundant, and tourism has led to the economic development of the state of Ambiluo, but the next task is just as serious.
The development of every tourist attraction is not just a matter of words, it requires a lot of manpower, material resources and financial resources to turn the plan into reality.
Some time ago, the town halls sent in a proposal with a good idea to rebuild a gold prospector paradise in the camp outside the Yagur Mountains.
Tourists who come to Ambiluo are very interested in the life of gold diggers, and after several meetings, it was felt that the word gold digger itself has great value, and if a whole set of tourism activities about gold diggers can be developed, more areas and projects can be activated.
Even some of the state's mines that have been shelved and abandoned appear in the plan, and those mines are almost already mined, and there is little point in continuing to mine.
However, this does not mean that there is no ore in these mines, but the reserves are very low and scattered, and the cost of mining is much higher than the value of the ore itself.
Then pick out some of these representative gold, silver and even gem mines, reconstruct them, strengthen the mines, ensure the safety of the mines, and then turn those mines into tourist attractions.
It is definitely a good gimmick to allow visitors to experience the life of a gold digger while also being able to find some "souvenirs" with special significance from inside the mine.
There are many more creative ideas like this, and there is a huge backlog of proposals on Doolin's desk, and the biggest problem these plans are currently running into is a lack of funds.
The state government has limited funds and cannot meet the requirements of each local government for the development of new projects, and someone happened to send a sum of money, and in addition to the compensation, there is still 10 million or 20 million, which can fully support the completion of the development process of several projects.
As for whether it is suitable or not, it is not a problem, a notice with a "forfeiture" can legally use the money.
Kevin also saw this, and only then did he find out what Durin was thinking.
In fact, in the end, it is still too poor, and if it is as developed as a southern city, it will not need these means at all.
"The next main work is on your side, first of all, to solve those problems at the door, so that they understand who is responsible now, who to find to solve their demands, how to solve them, etc. ”
"It's a waste of their time and our time to make sure those people out there understand who they should be looking for this money and not gathering in front of the state government to demonstrate!"
After chatting with Kevin for a while, a phone call came, and Kevin excused himself to leave.
The caller was Merlin, who is now having some trouble, trouble with patent licensing.
"You have licensed the patent of alcohol purification technology to some medical supply companies, and according to the regulations, their patent licensing ended three months ago, but they have not filed a new license application, but they are still using our patents. ”
"I've sent people to talk to them, and so far five have made it clear that they will get this done as soon as possible, but three have not given a clear answer, and they have been avoiding this question. ”
Now that the end of the year is approaching and companies are going to start their end-of-year audits, Merlin found out in some old contracts that Doolin had granted some of the companies permission to use some of the patented technology four years ago.
These permissions had long since expired, and they did not apply for a new license in the first place, but they were still using Doolin's patents.
These companies carry the sign of medical supplies and are actually the largest producers of moonshine in the empire, and everyone knows what these companies are really running, but at least for now, they are legitimate.
By purifying the alcohol and dispersing it in various places, the moonshiners who served the drinks would mix the alcohol and juice in proportions to make a variety of alcoholic beverages, which were then sold to unlicensed speakeasies.
As these businesses have quickly profited and grown, a number of small workshops have gone bankrupt under their runs, and they are essentially the source of moonshine that dominates the Empire's underworld.
With money, in the empire is the same as having everything.
Durin's "injury" had caused them to deliberately drag this matter down, but now the outbreak of this incident has once again made some of them think that they can jump out of the cage that Durin has woven for them.
Four years ago, the licensing fees worth more than 100 million yuan shook the entire business world, and it seemed that they were losing money, but in fact they made much more profits.
But then again, wouldn't it be better if you could keep that money in your own pocket?
