Bethel had a smile on his face, he shook his head slightly, his gray-blue chin flicked his collar, and the jewel collar gleamed, "No, I just wanted to say hello, I heard that you're in big trouble lately." Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ”

Wren frowned, narrowed his eyes with a smile, making it impossible to see the emotions in his eyes, he shrugged his shoulders with a relaxed expression, "Big trouble? Your Excellency, this is not a big trouble, just a small bump in my life journey." I'm sure I'll be able to get through it. ”

"That's good!", Bethel knew that this was not the right time to have a deeper communication with Wren, although Wren's rejection was not obvious, but Bethel, as one of the two sides of the conversation, could feel that Wren didn't want to say anything to him. Naturally, he will not be bored with himself, and losing ground is the biggest threat to politicians, which will drive him to a dead end. He nodded, glancing at the huge floor-to-ceiling windows, wondering if his office would have to open a wall as well, at least it would look more imposing, "If there's any trouble, come to me, you know." ”

Bethel was chained to a rope called Benefit, unable to break free, and he wondered if Wren was also chained to this rope, but he had to show that both sides had the same interests.

Wren's role is still significant, at least until Bethel opens up the situation himself, and Wren's role is more important than his role in the Ministry of National Security. He didn't dare to do anything to those big nobles, nor did he dare to touch the tiger whiskers of the royal family, Wren dared, and has been doing so, this is Wren's role to the Ministry of State Security. Putting Wren on top when necessary was one of the best ways for him to get out.

Faced with the Bethel who came to sell it, Wren couldn't give a cold face, so he immediately got up and walked over to send one to Bethel. Standing by the door, Wren said sincerely, "I know, I will." ”

Bethel nodded, and turned to leave. Wren watched Bethel's back disappear around the corner of the hallway before closing the door. He stood behind the door and pondered for a moment, then shook his head with a smile.

Now almost the entire Ministry of National Security is his hardcore, and there may be people who are different, but Wren believes that the vast majority of people are on his side. He brought with him the power and status that everyone could only dream of, and he also proved his worth. As long as you want to have these powers and positions, you must rally around Wren. There is never a shortage of smart people in this world, and smart people often have to face some helpless reality, that is, a successful person in power does not like smart people.

They prefer those fools who are submissive, have no subjective consciousness and thinking ability, have a relatively low IQ, but have okay execution ability.

Without Wren, the Ministry of State Security may once again be back to its former state of being like a fishpond. Bethel was not a qualified person in power, at least he did not dare to slap the table with the upper echelons of the empire, and he did not dare to give Her Majesty the Empress a look.

Wren returned to his desk and sat down, picked up a pen on the table and played with it, but he was thinking about something else.

Twright was released last night, and the royal family's claim is that Twright did commit tax evasion after an investigation, but it was not serious. The Earl of Twright used his death order privilege to settle the charge of tax evasion in one fell swoop through a "buyout". In other words, he is now innocent.

The concessions of the royal family have made many people's minds float.

It's like a small dish in a pickle jar, crushed under salt water by a heavy stone, and never comes out. Now the stone pressed against the top of the head showed signs of loosening, enough to be imagined.

The reason why hope has endless possibilities is that it pries and releases the shackles that bind people's minds.

At the same time, in Victory Square in the Imperial Capital of the Silver Ring, Sarcomo, like Twright, began his first speech to the Chamber of Commerce and Industry.

He did not wear the exclusive clothes of the nobility today, but wore ordinary linen clothes like the ordinary people who could be found everywhere in the square. Compared to Terlet, Sarcomo was still a businessman at heart, and he was also a legendary businessman with a reputation. He knew how to please a person and how to impress the other party, so he didn't have the slightest qualms about changing into such a set of clothes that only civilians would wear, and stood here.

The square was quiet, with occasional chatter, but most of the people listened quietly to Sarcomo's speech, "A year ago, I was no different from all of you, I was just a Desi with the title of citizen. I'm still a businessman, and I may be richer than you, but politically, we're all the same. I am standing here today not to preach my merits, nor to show my superiority, I just want to tell you that every Desi like me once was, my today may be your tomorrow. ”

"Count Twright said very well, the country of the Desi should be controlled by the Desi, and I would like to add that it should be controlled by all the Desi!", Sarcomo shook his fist vigorously, he had seen Wren's speeches many times in Ortrenburg. Wren was a genius, at least in his eyes, and his speeches were uplifting and emotional, and his characteristic body language was powerful and even more exciting.

The power of an idol is always endless, and Sarcomo also subconsciously began to imitate Wren's speech at this time, his fist waved hard, his face flushed, and his eyes widened as he looked at the people in the square who were attracted by the free food. Outside the crowd, many carriages have been parked, and some nobles and privileged classes have appeared on the surrounding high-rise buildings.

Sarcomo's heart was beating strongly, and each beat shook his body, filling him with strength, "We respect the royal family, and all that the nobles have brought to this country, they deserve to be respected. But we, these ordinary Desi, these ordinary Desi who have come together to make up the Orlando Empire, should also be respected. ”

"I'm standing here today, not trying to get anything, I'm just stating one thing, one reason, and one future. As the leader of the business party, I represent not only the interests of the merchant class, but also the interests of ordinary people to a certain extent, our interests are the same, we are one!", Sarcomo took a deep breath and slowed down his speech to make sure everyone could hear what he was saying, and also to give people time to think, "Every change means sacrifice, Count Tillet is not afraid of sacrifice, and I am not afraid of sacrifice!" I hereby declare that I am going to participate in this election as the leader of the Industrial and Commercial Party, and that I am representing not my own interests, but the interests of the Industrial and Commercial Party, and indeed many of you!"

"I would also like to announce that I will build two factories on the outskirts of the Imperial Capital and no less than five workshops in the Oak District, providing you with at least a thousand jobs. I need your support, it's not just me!"

In the distance, in a three-story attic, several nobles in dark formal suits looked at Sarcomo, whose mouth looked like the source of the Hudône River in Victory Square, and the water was constantly gushing out, and there was a thick contempt and banter on everyone's face, and one of them was a gray-haired aristocratic man who looked to be in his fifties, and laughed a few times, "Where did these people come from? I have only seen so many people at festivals." ”

As soon as his voice fell, someone immediately explained, "It is said that the industrial and commercial party has distributed a small note called a food coupon for three days in a row, and as long as people hold the note and gather here today, they can receive the corresponding food according to the things listed on the note." ”

"You mean...... Eat?", the gray-haired nobleman was a little unsure if he had misheard something, "Is it just for something to eat, so many people gather here without doing anything?", he showed a look of surprise, this expression was not contrived, it was a surprise from the heart, "Just to waste a morning listening to this idiot say something meaningless here just for the sake of eating?"

Several other nobles also showed all kinds of disbelieving looks, after all, food is nothing in the eyes of the nobles, and a housekeeper beside him could only smile bitterly and explain to these old men who don't know the people's suffering, "Most of the people in the square are from the Tonghuan District, and there are also some residents of the Yinhuan District, food is the thing that sustains their lives for these people, and it is also the most precious thing. ”

"You may not know that for poor people, food is all they have. In the Tonghuan district, many people are engaged in shameful jobs just to get a meal to eat. So for the sake of food, they would rather come and stand here all morning, even if they stand until it gets dark in the evening, they will be happy. ”

The extremely aristocratic looked at each other and fell silent. In their world, there is never a need to worry about money, even the most down-and-out nobles, there is no need to worry about money. The noble status and status have kept these nobles and "folks" out of place for too long, and they will not allow their expensive leather boots to step on the mud, nor will they allow splashes of dirty water to fall on their wagons.

What is happening among the people, they often get information through other people's "legends", and they themselves do not know anything about the lives of these people.

The gray-haired nobleman hesitated and said, "Then even so, what's the point of encouraging these people?"

This was their real concern, and Sarcomo was the second nobleman after Twright to speak and seek the support of the common people. To say that he is a nobleman is really exalting him, a small baron is not much stronger than the commoners outside in the political center of the imperial capital, but the nobles are nobles after all. His every move represents a special significance.

Now, what he has done is really confusing.

Even if the common people support you, as long as the Imperial Diet does not pass, even if the whole world supports you, what is the use?
