Choice, Resolve, Hesitation

Ousting the president has become the most important thing in Federal at present. The entire society has united around the group with this purpose as the core to contribute its own strength. People have fallen into a state of fanaticism and cannot extricate themselves.

They can't fill their stomachs, wander around all day long, and hate the president. They always think that it is the president who messed everything up, although many people know in their hearts that this is not the case.

The rapid recession of the economy, the rejection of Financial Tsunami, and International Community all require a way to vent their emotions. Bayer People, who originally dreamed of being a human being and a great nation, was suddenly poured cold water on reality. When they woke up from an unrealistic dream, they needed to vent their "wake-up anger."

Undoubtedly, the president became the best target.

For Progressive Party, the troubles they encountered are actually not much less than the president. After overthrowing the president, they need to carry out deeper international exchanges, how to carry it out, to what extent it is most appropriate, how to deal with friendly forces, how to deal with malicious forces, international trade, international relations, international politics...

All this is bothering the top management of Progressive Party. Even though these people talk like they are very relaxed all day long, they have begun to promote on TV the benefits of joining International Community to have more international interactions. In fact, they don't know what to do to do at least well, not like the president.

All this is an exploratory stage, but there are some issues that they have handled well. For example, Progressive Party Committee Vice Chairman has finalized some international trade orders. At this time, this thing has a more motivating effect on Bayer Federation society as a whole than anything else.

However, this news is still being blocked. They must wait for the president to be successfully impeached, drive out Presidential Palace, and be replaced by Progressive Party Vice President before they can spread this news, paving the way for the general election.

Look, Progressive Party started working as soon as he came on stage and achieved results. Isn't this much better than Conservative Party, a group of idiots who only catch their own people? As for the quotas and development methods of international trade, Progressive Party's senior management believes that it will develop in an orderly manner, not be liberalized all at once.

Who knows what role Federal will play in the big International Community. It is also possible that the domestic economy will be even worse due to complete liberalization of the market.

The mayor hesitated when facing Lin Qi's question. Lin Qi knew it was time to step up. "Landon, we are friends, but in my eyes you are also my uncle. We often sit together and talk about things that only we care about. You need to help me with this matter, and it is not just helping me, but also helping yourself."

"If you can get me Free Trade's photography or license, I can give you an accurate promise now. I will employ at least two thousand workers locally. If my business outside does well, this number may increase!"

Lin Qi put his hands on the corners of the table and leaned forward slightly. However, what he showed at this time was not humility, but through his expression, tone, and attitude, he showed a kind of unspoken aggression, or aggression.

He didn't need to use any words or expressions to make the mayor feel his determination and the possible consequences if he messed up.

The mayor hesitated for a while, frowned, and then nodded slowly, "Maybe I can try, but you have to understand that there are some things that even I can't convince those people. I'm just an ordinary mayor!"

The mayor's statement made Lin Qi relieved and satisfied. He picked up the knife and fork again, "I just want an opportunity, a ticket. If you can't deal with those people, I can talk to them, or someone can talk to them."

After hearing these words from Lin Qi, the mayor also relieved the somewhat tangled expression on his face.

In fact, in the final analysis, any rule has a certain buffer layer, or is flexible. If you want to use this buffer area, it depends on how Lin Qi behaves next.

Benefit transfer is a very common way, but hiring a high-level lobbying group is also a great way. You must know that sometimes favors are better than money!

Not long after the more serious topic was finished, the mayor asked Lin Qi another question that was a bit unexpected, "I heard that you and a woman named Vera have been very close recently, and she is a woman with a family."

The mayor wielded a knife and fork to cut the carefully cooked steaks. He forked a piece of meat, wiped the sauce and then raised the fork, but did not immediately put the piece of meat into his mouth.

From the angle of Lin Qi, he could also see some of the coming mixed with meat juice slowly flowing downwards along the piece of meat.

After looking away from the piece of meat inexplicably, Lin Qi neither admitted nor denied. It was not that his attitude was ambiguous, but that whether he admitted it or not, it was not the best approach. It would be better to neither affirm nor deny it.

He smiled and asked, "The mayor is also interested in my personal life?"

Only then did the mayor stuff the piece of meat into his mouth. After chewing it a few times and swallowing, he shook his head and continued to divide the food on the plate. "It's not that I'm interested in your private life, but I'm very interested in this woman's husband. You know, we all want to keep Listoan. He betrayed us, so they must pay the price."

He then talked about some of the various help and policies that he and the state have given to Listoan Group over the years, from endorsing them at the beginning, asking banks to give them low-interest loans, to various policies that gave them free money.

Just the amount of tax exemption given to them every year is more than two million. For this reason, City Hall also had some unpleasant troubles with Chief in State Revenue Service's office.

With the help of all parties, Listoan finally became the pillar industry of Sabine City, but what he got in return was betrayal, which was the most unbearable thing for the mayor.

He had a good appetite when talking about these things, and kept eating the steak on his plate while talking. When he was almost done eating, the conflict between him and Listoan was almost finished.

After stuffing the last piece of meat into his mouth, he made his final decision, "Since they don't like it here, then get out of here with all the money they got from here over the years, including principal and interest, or I won't let them leave."

The mayor left half of the lunch bag and spread various jams on it. "That woman's husband is a key figure. Maybe you can convince her. This will be good for both of us. I can ask the judge to consider it more when sentencing."

Lin Qi also put down the tableware in his hands at the right time. He picked up the napkin and dipped it in his lips and the sauce that might be around, then put the napkin on the table, "It's a hearty dinner, and it tastes good."

The conversation between the two seemed to have changed in an instant, and the mayor had a lot of smiles on his face. They no longer talked about those things, but just said as usual, "Just like it, it must be a boring thing to eat with a guy like me (age)."

Lin Qi shrugged, "Learning is boring, but knowledge guides the direction of human progress."

The subtle compliment put the mayor in a good mood. He and Lin Qi chatted for a few words before Lin Qi said goodbye to him.

After returning home, he called Asier and asked him to collect information about Listoan's assets in Sabine City.

From the process of having dinner with the mayor, he could feel that even if Gepu was not found, he would try his best to keep Listoan and Neo in Sabine City.

Since this company is bound to fall, why not prepare knives and forks where it falls? The growth of capital has never been achieved through hard work, but through plunder.

While I was dealing with some company matters, Vera brought a pot of coffee.

She rarely enters Lin Qi's study. Although Lin Qi has no order prohibiting her from doing so, she will not come in as long as Lin Qi is not here. This is the most basic respect for Lin Qi's privacy and secrets. She knows how to respect a man, including boys.

It's just that this time is different from the past. In the past, sometimes Vera would bring coffee, but after delivering it, she would leave. This time, she did not leave, and sat on the chair opposite Lin Qi.

"Is something wrong?" Lin Qi put down the file and looked at Vera.

The latter nodded slightly. Her face was a little red and her expression was a little embarrassed. "I think there should be nothing wrong when I go back tomorrow."

Lin Qi It took less than two seconds to roughly figure out the situation, "Did someone say something strange?"

It seemed like this was a question, but he said it in a very strong tone, as if he was determined that someone had done it.

Vera did not indicate yes or no, which made Lin Qi more certain that such a situation might exist.

He frowned, "You can't go back yet. Regarding the problem that happened to Mr. Gepu, I asked the mayor by the way when I had dinner with him that night..."

One sentence attracted Vera's attention.

"Mr. Gepu has now become Listoan Group Company Board of Directors, the key to competing with the mayor and governor. He seems to have something incredible in his hands."

"Judging from the current situation, it is possible that Neo's idea was to hide Mr. Gepu or send him out, but it is obvious that they failed. Mr. Gepu did not cooperate with them and escaped."

"If you go back to live, they will most likely use you as a breakthrough point, kidnap you, hurt you, and force you to tell you things you don't even know."

The more Lin Qi spoke, the sadder Vera's expression became, with a hint of fear in his eyes! If a woman is kidnapped... reality is not like a movie. The kidnappers will give her various preferential treatment, and she can even lose her temper over unappetizing food.

Those people will only hurt her, humiliate her, and force her! For a moment, the room became quiet.
