"Thank you very much for reminding me, this is very important to me." Du Lin did a pretty good job in terms of acting. At least he knew how to hide the true fluctuations in his heart.
The moment his eyes intersected with Sandra's, he suddenly realized something. He naturally raised his arm halfway, made a fist with his left hand and placed it on the center line of the bottom of the clothes, leaving just enough space for his naturally arched elbow. After moving a little bit, Sandra inserted her arm through Du Lin's arm very naturally. The two parties showed a particularly tacit understanding, as if they had known each other for a long time. She smiled slightly playfully, her eyes narrowed like crescent moons, "Then treat me to dinner!"
"What do you like to eat?" The two of them were walking out while talking in seemingly ordinary dialogue, as if they were just here to wait for dinner in the evening.
In the distance, Cleranf frowned as he watched the two people leave. Others didn't know Sandra's background, but as the agent for the western part of the Jindis Metal Mining Group, he held great power and was very powerful within the group. The senior management also had enough help, and he also had a lot of connections in the society, so he still knew a little bit about Sandra's details.
In the history of the empire, there was a very "tough guy" prime minister. This prime minister served three generations of emperors. When the third little emperor ascended the throne, his strength was so powerful that almost the vast majority of the nobles stood behind him. The Prime Minister's side. At that time, as long as he said that taboo word, there might not be anything wrong with the royal family now. But he didn't do that. He used his strong political skills to firmly make the aristocratic group that was ready to move willing to obey his mercy.
Although from the records of past history, we can't help but see that this prime minister is called "the powerful prime minister" and "the deceiver", but it has to be said that this prime minister did not do anything. On the contrary, in some respects, the prime minister played a key role in suppressing the expansion of the aristocratic group, prompting the imperial royal family's policy towards the nobility to change from "trust" to "vigilance". This was a turning point in the history of the empire. The emperors no longer wanted to have a noble who made them frightened and feared that someone would be beheaded at any time. This kind of thing would happen again and go to the other extreme.
Although the emperors did a pretty good job and completely solved the aristocratic group's invasion of imperial power, they still experienced the pain of reincarnation because the royal family encountered Mags. A prime minister who was not astonishing in appearance but already had overwhelming power over the world directly overthrew the era of royal family rule and entered a new future.
No matter what happens in the future, Mags and the prime minister will become a significant mark in the history of the empire!
Sandra is the front figure of the Prime Minister's family. When the Prime Minister resigned from the Prime Minister's position, he knew that he had held the military and political power of the empire for more than forty years. The royal family's resentment and fear of him would lead to huge disasters, so he Very cunningly, he broke his whole family into pieces and directly "broken up" his family. It seemed that the entire family had been destroyed in his hands due to his "madness", but in fact, after the family escaped for hundreds of years, it rebuilt the family again with the surname "Diplessi".
The Du Plessis family has not seen any brilliant politicians in the history of the empire since then. They are not even nobles, but no one will ignore their strength. It was not until Maggs overthrew the rule of the royal family that this family came to the surface slightly. The Du Plessis family has its shadow in almost all walks of life, so the Du Plessis family has another nickname - the Shadow Family.
As a frontline figure released by the Shadow Family, Sandra, regardless of whether she is an important figure in the family, is a very important help for Clelanfer, a person who actively seeks to make progress. If he can combine with Sandra, he will be able to integrate into this shadow family bit by bit, obtain more resources and conveniences, and create a branch dominated by himself, or even his own family.
This was important to him, his time was running out, he was thirty-seven, and he was running out of options. Sandra is the best card placed in front of him now. He can only draw this card, and no problems will be a problem in the future.
Ideals are always infinitely beautiful. Although Cleaver has always felt that he and Sandra are a perfect match, Sandra doesn't think so, and her attitude towards him can be said to be very bad. As for why there is such a phenomenon, it may have something to do with Cleaver feeling good about himself, but this cannot be blamed on Cleaver. To reach the position of a regional agent for the second largest metal mining group in the empire at the age of thirty-seven is enough to prove his excellence.
Not everyone can achieve this position, and even some of the higher-ups in the group don't have as much power as him.
If Du Lin hadn't appeared, Clelanf might not have been too nervous. He had watched the woman he wanted to marry leave with Du Lin, and he had to stop thinking about other things.
After the buffet, he returned to his villa, locked himself in his study, and made a phone call to his friend who worked at the top of the group's head office.
"Is Sandra really a member of the Du Plessis family? Is it just the same last name?" He had to determine this question. When no competitors appeared, he regarded himself as the only choice, and the only one. Could be the only option. But when competitors appear, he must consider risks and benefits. Just like Sandra knew about Dulin, Cleaver also knew enough about Dulin that he could make Dulin's friends, enemies and even strangers before there was no conflict of interest, because he would not interfere with Dulin. Lin and Dulin will not interfere with him.
It is even less likely that things will hurt each other and infringe on each other's interests.
But when the choice is placed in front of him, he must consider whether his efforts are sufficiently rewarded and whether the goal he is pursuing is the goal he wants.
"Is this why you called me late at night outside working hours?" The voice on the receiver was a little unhappy. After all, the other party was also a senior member of the group. The more distinguished a person is, the less he likes to be treated by people who should not appear. Harassment, "I can tell you for sure that Sandra is the grand-niece of this patriarch. Even if she is not a core member, she is not the kind of person who can be compared. Everyone who can be pushed to the stage The members are all the best in the Shadow Family!”
This answer with a grumpy tone made Cleaver somewhat relieved. He comforted the other party, "Okay, okay, I'm very sorry for interrupting your happy time with your family at this time. You didn't want me to do that." The shotgun? It will be yours when I go back in the middle of the year. Of course, I have one more question you must answer..."
"This is indeed good news. Is there anything else you want to ask?" Cleland's friends immediately became friendly. The shotgun they were talking about once belonged to His Majesty the previous Emperor of the Empire, who is now the Emperor of the Empire. The shotgun that grandpa used. The performance is definitely much worse than today's shotguns, but the nature and collection significance of this shotgun are completely different. In this post-imperial era where the royal family has not completely fallen from mythology, everything in the royal family is good. Even the farts of the royal family members smell good, let alone the shotguns used by the emperor.
"If..." Cleranf tried to make his statement less abrupt, "What do you think would happen to me if I married Sandra?"
The other end of the phone fell into silence for a moment. Just when Cleaver wondered if the operator had accidentally disconnected his phone line, a voice came from the receiver, "If you marry Sandra, I will We will push you to become a shareholder on the board of directors and give you more equity and power. If you can leverage the shadow family's investment in our group, of course we will cede part of the equity for this, and maybe you can become an executive director. Position!"
"This joke is very funny. I don't know if you drank too much or fell and hit your brain, but this is indeed a good and bold conjecture. Try to realize it and I will help you speak to the board of directors!" "
"If there is any further news, please let me know. By the way, I also have my shotgun. I hope to use it to go hunting next weekend!"
The sound of the signal being cut off on the phone did not make Cleaver feel any discomfort. He put down the phone and lay down on the sofa as comfortably as possible, without any image at all, just like a "street friend" lying on the side of the road in the filth. It's like that on the sofa that I picked up when it was dirty.
The benefits gained from taking down Sandra were much greater, and it looked better than he imagined. Precisely because he is in the Jindis Metal Mining Group, he is more aware of the specific strength of this business consortium. He is now the agent of the West, but the equity of the group company in his hands is only 1.1%. According to the current securities management terms, he is not even the smallest shareholder. But even so, he still controls the fate of hundreds of thousands of people and controls huge capital power.
Going one step further and becoming a "minority shareholder" will be another pinnacle of his life!
On the other side, Du Lin was having dinner with Sandra. In this era full of great changes, even God has to give in to the power that money brings. An outstanding violinist in the remote and desolate Gobi Desert is playing beautiful music for the two of them, and for this he can get a lot of money. An income of fifty yuan. The table was covered with the freshest ingredients, and there were twenty-four girls wearing white sand around them holding warm lamps for lighting.
The entire atmosphere was made extremely romantic. Under the influence of alcohol and the warm lighting, Sandra looked much more beautiful than she did at the venue!
