Chapter 1107: Power is actually a kind of magic

Views:

The new ring road of the Imperial Capital has been determined, and it is much larger than the initial plan during Mags's reign, which directly expanded the urban area of the Imperial Capital by nearly three times.

According to some rumors, after Kubal came to power, the northern nobles believed that the era of the old nobles had come, and they were not willing to stay in the northern castles all day long and wait for mold. Therefore, at the strong request of these nobles, the imperial capital area expansion plan was planned. new progress.

These people want to build villas and estates here in the imperial capital, so they can live here when they have nothing to do.

This made the original plan unworkable. Kubal directly planned a new city plan on the north side of the imperial capital, which was attached to the imperial capital. This area would be used to house the nobles from the north.

The ever-expanding urban circle of the Imperial Capital has brought too many benefits to the residents of the Imperial Capital. The worthless road sections have become valuable. The net worth of those who sit on some farmland or manor owners has skyrocketed, letting some people get rid of it in an instant. of poverty.

Among those with vested interests in the expansion of urban circles is Ben Hain.

Thanks to Powers being his uncle, the relationship names in this world are not as complicated as in Dulin's dream world. Women are all aunts and men are uncles.

He thrives in the cracks between the business district and the political power of the imperial capital. In this ever-changing era, those who hold power will never lack followers. On the contrary, it is those who have money but no power who are waving money all the time in the hope that they can Hug one thigh.

Ben Hain plays this role, he solves the problems of these people's demands.

This job was not easy to do in the past few years because the head of the cabinet was Maggs, but life has been much easier in the past year or so.

Powers gained great prestige and power after becoming the leader of the new party. Although this time the new party lost to the old party due to various inexplicable reasons, there are still a large number of people in society who are optimistic about the future of the new party and believe that the new party will Will make a comeback eight years later.

In order to avoid losing to the old party again like the defeat that had just occurred, Powers slightly adjusted the direction of the new party. With the permission of the new party committee, he believed that it was necessary for the new party to establish more friendly and mutually beneficial relations with society. Yes, the chairman of the New Party Committee also agreed with Powers's view, so the New Party and the capital forces cooperated a little more.

Coupled with Powers' personal appeal - as a representative of the civilian wing of the new party, so many new party members who have risen from the bottom have supported him for so many years, allowing him to have today's status, he must always give something back to these people thing.

Someone once used a very simple and straightforward language to describe politics, that is, exchange.

What I give you, you give me back, this is one of the essences of politics.

Many members of the populist New Party still live in small and remote houses, and have to squeeze in public transportation with other people to go to work every day. Does this need to be solved

Some of them can only solve the family's food and clothing problems, and have not even enjoyed a better life experience. Do we need to help them

Some members’ children and families still have no source of income and lack core competitiveness in this society. Can this be changed

In addition, in order to strengthen the cohesion and centripetal force of the populist faction, Powers will definitely need to organize activities of the populist faction frequently. This requires not only funds but also venues, which also requires someone to help them.

All in all, in the final analysis, there is still no money in hand. This is also the biggest difference between the civilian faction and the aristocratic faction.

Those members of the nobility all have rich families, and money is often not money in their eyes, or at most it is just money.

This is not like the members of the populist faction. Money is not just money, it is also a "good medicine" that can save the pain of diseases, a "gospel" that can improve the living environment of the family, a "happiness" that can make the family live a happy life, and it is also a way to gain power. "ladder".

In this case, Benhain's role is reflected. As Powers' exclusive broker, he has recently been helping capitalists who have money but lack political power to connect with Powers.

This made his life extremely nourishing. Whether it was some officials or some capitalists, they would always call him "Mr. Benhain" when they saw him, instead of using "Ben" to sum up everything about him as in the past.

The sense of glory, promotion, and obvious improvement in social status were like hallucinogens that firmly attracted Ben Hain and filled him with motivation.

In the early morning, when Benhain got up from bed, he yawned and walked into the dressing room. A young girl on the bed looked up at him and fell asleep again.

Benhain, who is already in his forties, feels that he is at the most perfect moment in his life. He is full of physical strength, energy, experience, and has a strong enough backing. In the next ten years, he will become a dancing figure.

This is largely thanks to his late aunt, otherwise he would not have had such an opportunity to establish a relationship with such a great figure as the leader of the New Party.

He took a shower, changed a set of clothes, and drove out without eating breakfast. He still had some things to discuss with the manager of the hockey field this morning.

The baseball field outside the imperial capital was included in the city circle due to the imperial capital expansion plan. This was originally a very good thing. There is a wide hockey field in the city circle of the core city of the empire, which is only brought about by the appreciation of the land. The changes in wealth are enough to keep shareholders awake at night laughing every day.

But at the same time, there is also huge pressure.

The Bureau of Social Services and the Land Resources Management Bureau believe that the nature of the land has changed, and are mobilizing efforts to obtain signatures from multiple departments, hoping to find ways to take back the land on the grounds of "change in nature."

Some wealthy businessmen and big capitalists kept sending people to lobby the board of directors, hoping to buy the equity of the hockey stadium at a lower price. However, their attempts to do so were ugly, and the board of directors could not forcefully refuse, and they were reluctant to sell their shares at a low price.

In addition, some people who wander on the fringes of black and white want to come and suck out the marrow from time to time. The entire board of directors of the hockey stadium has been struggling for a while. Those who can find connections are looking for connections, and those who cannot find connections are waving money to attract those big shots. gaze.

Ben Hain was attracted by this group of people.

The manager of the hockey field had promised him that if Mr. Powers could bring justice to the hockey field and save their property, they would be willing to use a piece of land to build a private club for Mr. Powers' disciples to organize activities, and they would also return it every year. Fifteen premium annual passes will be given away.

Now the price of a senior annual card has risen to 50,000, and 15 cards equals 750,000. For the hockey stadium, the investment of 750,000 yuan is actually equivalent to nothing, and the cost is only a few dozen yuan, but for others, this is 750,000 yuan.

In addition to these, they will also privately give Ben Hain some additional benefits. In addition to permanent membership, they will give him a shop worth 200,000 yuan outside the center of the imperial capital!

For such generous friends, Ben Hain could not refuse them, and Powers could not refuse them.

At 8:50, Ben Hain appeared in the office of the manager of the hockey field. After the manager locked the door, he looked at Ben Hain with excitement and a hint of apprehension, "My dear friend, the goddess of luck has noticed me. ?"

As he spoke, he opened the safe and took out a bulging handbag with thirty thousand yuan in cash. He placed his handbag in front of Ben Hain. Ben Hain picked it up, weighed it, and then put it back.

"I'm sorry, Lady Luck didn't notice a poor guy like you..." When Ben Hain said these words, the manager seemed a little depressed, but the next words made him excited again, "But Bao Mr. Voss has his eyes on you, my friend."

The expression on the manager's face changed very quickly. He couldn't help but stand up and waved his fists and walked back and forth a few steps. With a person of status like Powers protecting their legitimate rights and interests, even if some nobles wanted to annex their property. I'm afraid the industry is also powerless.

Even if some people will be dissatisfied with Powers' actions, the New Party will actively respond to the challenge, because Powers is the leader of the New Party no matter what, and his dignity cannot be tarnished.

Ben Hain took out a pen from his breast pocket, took the cup away from the coffee table, and wrote a series of numbers and letters on the coaster, "The money will go into this account, you know what I'm talking about."

The manager nodded vigorously. If they only relied on a little money and things to be able to let Powers shelter them from the wind and rain, this would definitely be just a very absurd dream.

In addition to the money and things, they will also give 6% of the shares to Mr. Powers free of charge. Of course, the public statement is that a financial management company provided them with the necessary help and acquired part of their shares.

The financial management company is in the name of a lover of Ben Hain, and the annual dividends will be paid into an anonymous account belonging to Powers.

If we talk about why the Reichsbank can stand firm and remain motionless in the face of many challenges, then Powers has used his personal experience to illustrate this.

He would like to thank the Imperial Bank for still maintaining an independent stance, so that he can enjoy the benefits and conveniences brought by anonymous accounts.

The manager suppressed his excitement and sat down again, asking in detail, "Then let's..." He smiled, meaning how to reveal the news.

Ben Hain already had a plan in mind. He waved his hand and said, "I remember you will hold a national hockey invitational tournament in May?"

The manager nodded repeatedly, and most competent hockey stadiums would hold regular events to increase their influence, and they would do so.

Ben Hain smiled slightly and said, "At that time, you can invite Mr. Powers as a special guest to bat the first ball."
