Chapter 569 Invitation [2]
"Durin is coming to the west?" Mennon put down the club in his hand, took the towel handed over by the caddie, and wiped the sweat from his face.
There is heating supply in the entire gymnasium. Unlike the cold circulation system that cools the space as a whole, it is quite simple to increase the temperature of a house. Just a few pieces of crystals can continuously release heat, and the entire space can maintain a considerable temperature through the air circulation system.
The gymnasium where Mennon is located is a closed gymnasium. The glass on the dome can shine the sunlight outside the house. The ground is covered with excellent turf from the south. It has a life cycle of only 70 days, one or twenty yuan per square meter. The entire indoor gymnasium is about 9,000 square meters. It can be said that tens of thousands of yuan are needed to spend tens of thousands of yuan in this stadium every two months to maintain the eternal greenness of these turfs.
Originally, the purpose of establishing this stadium was to give capitalists a leisure time to play polo or do some other interior sports. After Mennon came, it became a place where Mennon often appeared. Polo could not be played, but it could be played polo without horses. This is a "noble sport" that just emerged in the Federation, similar to golf in the world in Dulin's dream. There are not so many rules, and there are some differences in details. However, overall, the purpose of the final game is to hit the ball into the hole.
After handing the club to the caddy, Mennon took off his anti-wear gloves and walked to the stands on one side. The secretary who had just returned the news followed him.
He knew Dulin, the pride of the Guartes, at least for now, everyone said so. It is indeed not easy for a Guarte to become the mayor of a city, and he is so young. Mennon would not think that all this was obtained through his own efforts. Some big shots must be planning something. Dulin was just a puppet he pushed to the front desk. Just like the recent accident, this puppet had no value in use, so the big shots behind Dulin pushed and knocked Dulin back to its original form.
In Mennon's opinion, the purpose of this big man behind the scenes is Audis City. After all, opening a casino that violates the laws of the empire, selling contraband is a very dangerous thing in itself. If the big man operates it himself, he may not be able to touch the boundaries, but there will be no trouble for Dulin to operate it.
If something goes wrong, that's Dulin's idea. He is destined to be unlucky and take all the faults for the big guys.
No problem happened and it succeeded, just like now, Dulin was kicked out.
However, even if Dulin lost his official position, he could not underestimate it. After all, he had the most sound and largest smuggling network in the eastern part of the empire. His private wine deals were sold to various parts of the empire. He was very rich and had a certain influence among the Guartes.
Mennon was not a Guarte, he was an Ogding man of pure blood, but after he followed the Blood Dawn, he also recognized the Guarte mania, so it was not good news that Dulin came. Who knew what this kid would do in the West.
He walked to the side of the stands and sat down in his seat. After a while, he took a few sips of cold drinks that were naturally cooled outside. After high-intensity exercise, his body was excited and finally calmed down. He thought for a while and said to the secretary beside him: "Please warn him not to mess around on my territory. I welcome him to invest in the west, but he is not welcome to come and mess around!"
The secretary was about to do something, and Mennon called him back. He was about to kidnap Alyssa and her children, and then cut out the 30 million gold that Dulin swallowed, but he led out Mr. Ksma and Leighton, which made him live in a nervous life for a long time. He had been with the leader (Mr. Ksma) for several years. In these years, he realized very clearly that it is good to provoke anyone, so don't provoke the leader.
That's a bastard. He works completely based on his own preferences. Whenever he feels that he is humiliated, he is pulling his gun. In most of the incidents after he draws the gun, others are just joking. If he warns Dulin so directly and nakedly, will the leader feel arrogant and then mail him a black envelope and suddenly appear in his room in the middle of the night?
He hesitated for a moment and ordered again: "Forgot it and go and tell Dulin, convey my welcome to him to the west, and tell him that I invite him to chat in my house." This is the safest way. Until now, Mennon has not figured out who Dulin or Nasha is the relatives of the leader. In the era when the blood dawn was crazy, Mr. Ricksma had been using a pseudonym, and rarely appeared in front of people in his true form. Only a few people knew his appearance, but did not know his last name.
Even if today, many people who know Mr. Ksma cannot guarantee that the surname Ksma is the real surname of Mr. Ksma, and perhaps it is just a pseudonym?
After the secretary left, several people who played ball with Memnon came over. The clothes these people didn't look very expensive, but their temperament was definitely different from those of ordinary people, with a calm and confident spirit.
These people are several big capitalists in this state. Mennon's "three guarantee policy" was also due to cooperation with these big capitalists, so he was able to operate normally temporarily and absorbed a large number of followers to support him, giving him the potential power to run for governor.
"Mr. Mennon is tired? Do you want to change places and take a break?" The guy who spoke was very tall, strong but not bloated. There was a faint scar on his forehead, but it did not destroy his appearance. Instead, it added a hint of toughness and domineeringness to his elegance. This guy is named Carlos, one of the directors of the Imperial Bondika Arms Group and the executive director of Bondika West.
Bondika has many industries in the west, in addition to those oil fields, there are several large steel mills, and more than 20 iron ore and copper mines. This is the production base of Bondika arms group. Carlos is not only a director, but also a main member of the Bondika family.
The arms business is not easy to do, especially when there is no national war now, the market demand for arms is not high. Fortunately, wars break out on several other continents from time to time, giving Bundika arms group enough market. There are some rumors that in these wars, Bundika and two other arms group play a very disgraceful role. It can be said that they promoted the outbreak of the war, and even hired mercenaries to pretend to be local soldiers and actively engage in friction on the border, and then detonate local wars.
Mr. Carlos can be said to be the well-deserved "first person" in the west, with a wealthy and a large group of guards, who can launch a small-scale battle anytime and anywhere. He is also a very generous big shot. He contributes money and efforts in Mennon's promotion of his "three guarantees" plan. It is precisely with Carlos and many capitalists like Carlos that Mennon's policies can be implemented.
Mennon nodded, "We have been exercising for almost an hour, and I am a little tired. Secondly, my secretary told me just now that Dulin has come to the west, so I asked the secretary to invite him to chat with him."
"Durin?" Carlos was stunned for a moment, "Are you talking about the Durin on the East Coast?", and he nodded as he said, "If it were that Durin, he could indeed be invited to join us. He is a very powerful young man. I heard from some friends that the Navy was very close to him and even launched wartime missions for him."
Those who engage in arms will always have close relationships with the army. Although the navy has lost the military support from the military headquarters, they have other ways to get money. Some of the money will become the salary of the entire navy, and the other part will update the navy's equipment to ensure that it will not lag behind the times in military equipment. Only in this way can the navy ensure the current independence situation, otherwise if it falls too much, the empire will deal with them.
Once such a situation occurs, it can be said that no one of the top leaders of the Navy can escape and will eventually be sent to the military court to wait for hang. So Carlos knows this Dulin, and even more about some inside information that others don't know.
Dulin provided the Navy with about 7 million in transportation fees last year, accounting for almost 10% of the current Navy's self-raised military expenses. This is definitely a very huge number, and this number is still expanding. The Navy has regarded Dulin as its most trustworthy ally. The Colonel Thomas, who connects Dulin and the Navy, is said to have reached a unified understanding among the Navy's top leaders. After next year, he will be nominated to become the first non-war promotion of the Navy Major General after the Civil War.
This shows how much the Navy attaches importance to Dulin, and he is also qualified to join the small circle of this special atmosphere in the West.
The reason why it is special is that this is the only market in the entire empire that has not been occupied by the chamber of commerce. The folk customs and toughness here are definitely not something that the chamber of commerce can control. After a long period of no progress, they took the initiative to give up this place.
Mennon's "kindness" was soon learned by Du Lin. Du Lin was a little hesitant about the invitation of the Nongmen. He wanted to meet the butler who was whipped by his father under the horse's legs, and he didn't really want to meet him too early.
Chapter completed!
