Chapter 227: The gossip of the consortium
"Paul, Paul, your broken map has been hidden for decades and finally taken it out!" said the head of the Mujing Consortium with a smile.
"Alas, isn't this the old iron piece who accepted Beiming as a disciple, saying that he wants to exercise and train him, so I will take out the treasure map and let him go to the treasure hunt to see if he can find it!" Paul pointed to the old liar and said.
The old liar laughed and said: "Don't talk about those useless ones, don't you just can't find the location on the treasure map, and you still say such a righteous Ling Ran, I don't know how righteous you are!"
"Okay, okay, what kind of character is this old boy Paul, and listen to his nonsense here, let's go for a walk, go directly to the secret passage, and let's go. The King of Joy forked.
"Alas, I know that you are in a hurry, and I originally wanted to do my best to entertain you as a landlord. Considering that you have to hurry to leave, I won't leave you behind, so you can take this thing with you. The head of the Mujing Consortium said and waved his hand, and several guards came over carrying something like a heavy machine gun.
Then he said: "This thing is the latest research and development of the equator, the energy source is obsidian and gunpowder, I will give you a large box of bullets, and a box of obsidian, this thing can help you somewhat in a crisis." β
Maybe others don't understand, but Beiming is a person who knows the goods, how can the cost of this thing cost millions! The most important thing is that this box of obsidian will be counted as the worst obsidian, and it will cost millions! These bigwigs say that if they give it away, they will give it away! No wonder they are a consortium!
Paul and the others did not refuse, and the old liar waved his hand and said, "Young men, go, carry the cart up!"
"Eh!" Wutian, who didn't have enough to take advantage of, agreed first, and hurriedly called the gunner to carry them into the car, as if they would regret it. Bei Ming stepped forward and bowed in person to thank him.
"Little things, little things, remember to come here to rest when you find the 'Loki Divine Treasure' and return triumphantly, and let my old man have long eyes!" said the head of the Mujing Consortium with a very kind smile.
"Well, let's go. Paul said, waving his hand.
"Okay, let's get in the car, I won't send you, just follow the car in front of you." β
"Let's go, see you!" said the King of Pleasure, closing the car door.
Then Yu Fei drove the car and followed the car in front of him.
Bei Ming said uncertainly: "These big people won't have a special passage for travel, right?"
"Yes. The Easy King nodded and said, "They have been in Syracuse for so many years, and they have built countless main passages underground. There is no doubt about this, one of them is for their own convenience, and the other is just in case, in case one day Syracuse is breached, they can flee for their lives. Not only the Syracuse consortium, but also the emperors and high-ranking officials of various countries have such an escape system, but ordinary people don't know it. β
Beiming had heard of this statement, but he had never seen it, and it was finally confirmed here today.
"Alas, these consortia.... It's good to be rich, fuck-fuck!" Mourning wanted to say a few words, but he didn't know what to say, so he could only scold.
The old liar shook his head and said, "What you think is good is really good? It's so naΓ―ve, haven't you ever seen these rich people really miserable." β
"Miserable? How can I be so miserable that I can't eat? I rely on it, they pop out a scumbag and are so rich than me, how can they be miserable?" said unconvinced.
The old liar shook his head and looked at Paul and said, "What's the matter, Master Paul, teach this young boy a lesson?"
"Come, I'll tell you. Gunner, pour me a drink, I'll give you a boost!" Paul said as he sat on the console.
"Okay, no problem!" the gunner agreed, bringing over a small keg, and a couple of glasses.
"Idle is idle, just listen to him brag -. Bei Ming smiled and pulled the others to sit down, ready to start listening to the story.
"You know there are many consortia throughout Syracuse, right?" Paul said, lighting a cigarette.
Everyone nodded, everyone knows that there are about seven or eight well-known consortiums in Syracuse, and there are some small ones, but those can't be called consortiums, they can only be called families, because there is really no strength of consortiums!
"There's a consortium, I won't say who it is, don't guess, we all know this person. Paul cocked Erlang's legs and began to speak, and pointed to Beiming as he spoke, "He, like your grandfather, was also mortally injured in the final battle 50 years ago, the only difference is that he is still alive!"
"Oh~~" Beiming mourned the day and their group nodded.
"He was injured at the time and did his best to find hope of a cure, but... In the end, he still didn't find it, so there was no way, because this person's children were too young at the time, so he temporarily handed over the consortium to the housekeeper to take care of, and this time it was fatal, his housekeeper killed his wife and beat the family heir to insanity.... Alas. Paul said as he took a drag on his cigarette.
"No, it's all a consortium, is this the only person in charge of their family? I mean, there is no side of the family to fight for power? What kind of onion is he a housekeeper? How can it be his turn?" Bei Ming asked first.
"This reflects the importance of the consortium, the title of the consortium does not mean that you have enough money, the people who have the title of the consortium are the founders of Syracuse!" Paul said slowly, "In the circle of their consortium in Syracuse, in addition to the secret that the consortium can be protected by the highest level of equator for free, there is also an unknown hard and fast rule, the status of the head of each consortium cannot be robbed by anyone in the family! If anyone dares to snatch the position of the head of the consortium, it will be the enemy of the entire Syracuse! It is the enemy of the equator!" If the head of the consortium is changed, or if all the heads of the consortium must be present when the power is transferred, the new generation of leaders of such a consortium can be regarded as having legitimacy! This can be regarded as the last insurance set up by the bosses of these consortiums for themselves!
"That's why the right of this butler appointed by the injured head of the consortium is so great that no one dares to question what he does. Then the housekeeper didn't know where to find a concubine for the head of the house, and then gave birth to a child, as for whether the child was the head of the house, no one knew, and no one dared to ask. Paul took a puff of his cigarette and continued: "Then this housekeeper and this concubine actually got into a stiff because of disagreement, and now the whole consortium is divided into a faction loyal to the old master, a faction loyal to the housekeeper, and a faction loyal to the concubine. β
"Even you all know so clearly, is there no one in charge of the other consortiums?" asked Mourning Tian, Shui Ningxin, Hongxue, and Xia Yue also nodded, obviously having the same question.
Paul shook his head and said: "This old family owner is not very popular, and he has been relying on his strength to bully other consortia in public, which can be regarded as deserved, besides, this is a family affair of other people, and outsiders can't manage it even if they want to." β
Bei Ming asked: "What about later?" He wanted to know how this old master was now, no matter how he was, he was strong, he had experienced great turmoil, and he participated in the creation of a city ahead of his time.
Paul said with a wry smile: "At that time, after the head of the family gave the housekeeper the right, his injury had reached the point of no repair, and his body was weak, but when he really saw the housekeeper's character, it was too late, and the housekeeper took over the power, beat the heir stupidly, and arranged a concubine for him." But there was nothing he could do to change anything, he could only watch it happen. Originally, this housekeeper wanted to be the head of the consortium directly, but at this time, it was impossible for him to learn that the transfer of rights to the consortium was so troublesome, and at the same time, the head of the consortium could not die, and once he died, the privileges of the consortium would be canceled, and he, the housekeeper, would inevitably be hunted down by the family, so he could only use all methods to keep the old family master from dying!!"
"It's a pity, not to mention how he is a person, just his temper, domineering all his life, and finally ended up like this.... I endure the pain and torture every day, and rely on some instruments to maintain my life!" said King Xiaoyao with emotion.
"Now you know, these rich people are also worse than dead, and what you see is good, and what is hidden in the dark corners is not visible to you!" said the old liar, leaning against the side of the carriage.
"Yes, what you see is what these people want you to see!" King Xiaoyao also nodded in agreement! No one present was more qualified to say this than him, although he was no longer in power, but after all, he had once been the leader of a country, and he must have seen more dirty things than they had heard in Beiming!
Several people were chatting, and the vehicle entered a particularly wide passage, and the sides and top of the passage were sealed with chrome metal, completely eliminating the possibility of collapse!
The gunner looked at this passage and sighed: "This is really a fucking road paved with money!"
"Almost, it is estimated that we can walk up to a hundred and ten meters to top our Optimus Prime!" Bei Ming nodded and said.
Wu Tian sat in front of the window smoking a cigarette and said: "After all, it is a life-saving thing, money is a number in the eyes of these people, and nothing is important!"
Beiming patted him on the shoulder and said, "One day, we can also build a few such passages, one day!"
"Yes, you are the only one among us who can do it, it should be said that you are the only one who has this possibility!" Hongxue said, shaking her head.
After walking for more than an hour, a floodgate in front of me opened, and it was an inaccessible canyon, all the rocks and mountains outside were gray, and there was no grass, and Beiming's first feeling was that it was a fucking alien!
