Ever since Dohrin gave the tailors who moved to Otis a trick to industrialize garments, there are now many more brand stores on the roadside, and these ready-to-wear stores no longer measure the data for each customer and then tailor it, they just tell the consumer where to hang the right size on the shelf.

There is no special customization, there is no craftsman's meticulous craftsmanship, and the cycle of owning a piece of clothing has changed from three or five days in the past to three seconds now—the moment the money is paid, all the money for those clothes has changed.

But like the great nobles, like Doolin, there are still many craftsmen who serve them, providing personalized customization, ensuring that any clothing and accessories they wear on their bodies are unique.

Doolin customizes all of Doolin's clothes and accessories, and every quarter she sends Doolin's latest body measurements to the housekeepers of the various estates, who then customize Doolin according to the latest styles.

In accessories, such a small logo is often added to ensure a certain degree of independence and the identity of the user.

Wherever the pure gold lines as thick as ordinary steel wires were inlaid with the ornaments in a floral fashion, Ophelia had packed them for Dorin, and she could tell at a glance that they were Dorin's.

Although there were a little doubts in my heart, I didn't show it immediately, thanks to the high-density newspaper reports on Dulin's "erosive" private life in the past during this time, so that the little girl had a great ability to bear it in this regard.

Moreover, girls who come out of aristocratic families still know very well about the attitude of aristocratic life.

After she came down from the second floor, she sat back next to Her Royal Highness, and Melissa was standing not far away enjoying the energetic music with her classmates, while wiggling her bewitching body.

It's a night of partying, don't let things ruin everyone's mood.

On the other side, Durin had just arrived in the imperial capital, and he went to see Magus without resting. Since he started on this path, he found that his laid-back life was gone, and every day he lived in busyness, as well as on the go.

When he met Mags, Mags was not surprised by Durin's visit, he asked the butler to bring a pot of tea, and poured a cup for Doolin, "What did the Navy say?"

Durin looked up at him, "Don't you know?", he said and smiled, "I thought there were already some people in the navy who were on the side of the Empire!"

Maggs shook his head and said something else, "You're smart, Doolin, you're the smartest young man I've ever met, sometimes being too smart isn't a good thing, it's scary, did you know there's something about you in the agreement between us and the Navy?"

"Me?", Duhrin was really surprised, he didn't think he would have any special role between the Ministry of Defense and the Imperial Navy, it was obvious.

He is not an important official of the empire now, and he does not have the ability to influence the selection of the navy and change the policy of the cabinet, but this sentence of Maggs has involved him. He lowered his head and thought seriously, thought for a long time, and suddenly looked up at Maggs and asked, "Foundation?"

Maggs smiled with satisfaction, and he nodded, "Yes, Foundation, I used to think that this Foundation was just a small means for you to corrupt and collude with the military leadership, although it has appeased the emotions of the active admirals to a certain extent, but its greater effect is the infiltration of your personal influence into the navy." ”

Durin didn't speak, but listened quietly with his teacup in his hand.

"So I need to thank you, the Patriotic Military Foundation has solved a big problem for us, and at the same time I also have a request, the operation of the foundation is entrusted to the people of the Ministry of Defense, and from today onwards, you can only nominate it. Speaking of this, Maggs suddenly raised his eyebrows, "Of course, when you need to pay for it, you still have to make some sacrifices." ”

In order to corrupt Mr. Major General of the Ilian Naval Base, Durin once recruited more military personnel, and threw out a "Patriotic Military Foundation" to help the families of soldiers who died in the Civil War, as well as to give necessary humanitarian aid to active duty soldiers, in order to ensure the professionalism of the foundation, he promised to recruit more retired military officers, including generals into the foundation as senior advisers, and even directors.

This little trick was very effective, and it didn't take much money to get him the favor of the military, and it was.

It has been five years since the establishment of the Patriotic Military Foundation, almost six years, and it has absorbed a total of three generals and officers, as well as many school officers. All these people need to do is take the money that Durin allocates to them every quarter, and then go to various military bases to offer condolences.

The most feared thing for these retired soldiers, especially the generals, is that they will lose the power in their hands after retiring from the army, and they will also lose the ability to maintain their lives. First of all, the Foundation will give them a high salary, so that they can maintain a decent life after retirement, and secondly, the special service content of the Foundation can allow them not to completely leave the circle in which they once lived.

They can wield money to help all the servicemen in need to maintain their influence in the military. Although their influence will continue to decline in the process, it is much better than they imagined.

In this way, the Patriotic Military Foundation has become a good thing within a certain range.

During this secret consultation with the Navy, the commissioner informed them of Maggs and Kubal's idea that in addition to the martial arts faction that had to be purged from the existing Navy's top ranks, some of the generals needed to be retired. The influence of these generals on the navy is too great, far higher than the influence of the Ministry of Defense on the navy, and as long as they do not retire for a day, the Ministry of Defense will not be able to truly control the entire navy.

So this creates a disagreement to let the generals retire?

Who will sustain them for the rest of their lives?

How to deal with the psychological gap in their power loss?

If there is no suitable way to solve these problems, the top brass of the Navy may not sincerely return to the embrace of the empire, so at this time, the role of the Patriotic Military Foundation is reflected.

The veteran generals, who have retired, continue to maintain their influence and connections in the military in a unique way, and they are even more popular than in the past.

After they lost the ability to compete for power, these people waved the money that everyone loved, and even the generals with whom they had some conflicts and differences resolved their small problems and reconciled.

Who can hate them if they don't interfere with the power and control of the army of the active officers, and at the same time they can pay the army at every turn?

As a result, Dulin's Patriotic Military Foundation became a designated retirement place for the top brass of the Navy, and they unanimously asked to join this foundation, and on the premise that they were not suspected of treason and did not harm the interests of the Imperial military, the Ministry of Defense could not use any reason or excuse to restrict their life and actions after retirement.

These generals have come to regard the Foundation as a continuation of their current lives.

This article was also written into a top-secret document.

There was a slight fluctuation in Maggs's heart, he knew that this Foundation was a small creation of Doolin's unintentional move, but this unintentional act came in handy today. A smart man, and thanks to the good fortune of Lady Luck, Maggs felt a little scared.

Once these things are taken out as black material, it is very likely that Durin will be labeled as colluding with the military in private, which is very fatal politically and will ruin Durin's future. So now he has to solve this trouble for Durin, hand over the actual management of the foundation to the Ministry of Defense, and then he will continue to name and donate, plus some other small means, to be able to get him out completely.

Good luck, or bad luck little bastard......!

Maggs sighed, he wouldn't tell Durin how much he had helped him, and he was going to beat him up to let him know that one wrong step on this road would kill him, but the crooked footprints of the past would also kill him!

Be sure to teach him a lesson!

Durin scratched his head, he didn't know that in such a short moment, Mags thought about a lot of things, but instinctively showed a harmless smile, "As an Empire, I always feel the memory of those soldiers who sacrificed for the Empire, this is what I should do." Maggs just wanted him to get out, but his tone suddenly changed, "But it's ......"

"But I'm still young and my shoulders may not be able to take on such an important mission alone, it's better to name a director and transfer the entire foundation to the Ministry of Social Services for free, and the money that should be given will definitely not be less, but all my people will be withdrawn, what do you think?"

Maggs pointed at him, but didn't speak, this little bastard's sense of smell is very keen, and after a few words, he immediately realized that there was a huge danger in this area, and decisively withdrew directly, which was very similar to his style.

Du Lin breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "Actually, I have another thing I want to ask you about this time. ”

Maggs looked at his watch, tepid, maybe he had let Durin escape, he couldn't teach this little bastard a lesson, a little inexplicably unhappy, "I'm old now, and the doctor told me to go to bed early every day, as short as possible." ”

"Question ...... about the Chamber of Commerce"

After discussing with Maggs about what he would do in Ambiluo, he took his leave.

At this time, it was already past eleven o'clock in the evening, and he originally wanted to stay at Mags's house to spend the night, but seeing that Mags was not in high spirits, he didn't open his mouth. He would never have known that Maggs's interest was actually very good, but he had just ruined it.

Lowering his wrist, he commanded the driver, "Go back to the villa." ”
