Slam the door shut. Garen looked up in the direction of his uncle's house.
The door of the car behind him slammed, and Cynthia stood behind him in a tight black leather jacket.
"I don't like this kind of ostentation very much, it's too troublesome." Cynthia frowned and whispered.
"The current situation requires that the federal government has suffered a complete defeat in several battles. What they have given me now is to let me not forget the support and help they gave me." Garen said lightly, "These are small things. The Federation is so huge, even if it Decay will not decay so quickly, at least it will take decades. After all, such a large piece of meat, even if you want to eat it, it depends on your own digestion speed."
"Is this a hero in troubled times?"
"Probably." Garen turned his head and looked at a car behind him.
A middle-aged man got out of that car, with a beautiful curly mustache, a white suit, and a white cane in his hand. He also just got off the car.
"Mr. Gallon, please."
"Minister Devanner is polite." Garen nodded with a smile.
This person is the Minister of Finance in charge of economy, investment, and commercial affairs of the entire Grant Province. He "just happened" to pass by Huaishan to meet with Garen. In fact, he is an insider of the Golden Ring and the uncle of the Seventh Golden Ring.
Hearing that Garen was coming to visit his uncle Tirjodi Angel. He also had a chance encounter with Angor at a reception, and he also proposed to come here.
In his eyes, Baiyunmen Garen has obviously become a powerful local armed force that cannot be ignored, and has an irreplaceable huge influence both in its own strength and in the military circle.
Now that the federal government has failed, there is a faint sense of separatism in various places. What the senior officials are most worried about is the huge power of Baiyunmen. Especially the recent crazy expansion of Baiyunmen, directly involving more than half of the entire province, the number of members is increasing day by day. It directly represents folk martial arts and underground forces. The identity of door master Garon is even one of the top leaders of the Golden Ring, and he has won the support and support of many underground forces.
If a high-ranking official wants to establish himself as a king, the first thing he has to face is the military region and Baiyunmen. Only with the support of these two pieces can the whole Grant be truly mastered.
That's the main reason he sent Finance Minister Devanner over there in a hurry. He wanted to test Garen's attitude.
The two walked into the building side by side, striding towards the building.
Bodyguards on both sides opened the way one after another, and a group of people went up to the fifth floor.
Uncle Till was already waiting at the door with someone.
"Dear uncle, long time no see." Garen stepped forward and hugged his uncle gently.
"It's been a long time, Garen. Who is this?" Till looked at Tivaner behind Garen. "Minister Devanner?"
"Nice to meet again, Mr. Angel." Tivaner switched the cane to the other hand, and shook hands with Tyre lightly.
"I'm so rude, please come in." The servant next to him removed Tiffana's coat, and the three of them walked into the living room surrounded by people.
"I happen to be holding a junior party here. I didn't expect Minister Tivaner and Garen to come here together. There is nothing to entertain here." Till walked in front and introduced with a smile.
"Lombas, Filia, come here!" he shouted.
The two children had heard the sound a long time ago, and they all came out and waited aside.
Till, Gallon, and Minister Tivaner became the focus of everyone's attention as soon as they entered the door.
Lombas hurriedly ran in and called out his sister knowingly. He heard the call, and hurried over to bow his head and say hello obediently.
"Hello, Brother Gallon, and Mr. Minister." Lombas bowed his head respectfully and greeted the three of them.
Filia bowed her knees while holding her skirt and saluted. "Brother Garen, hello Minister Tivana. Long time no see, Brother Garen."
"It's really been a long time." Garen stretched out his hand to pinch Filia's small face, with a gentle smile on his face.
Tivaner on one side saw it in her eyes and secretly remembered it in her heart.
"There are two more here, children of my wife's family." Tire beckoned for Deleando and Venus to come over. These two are the most outstanding young people from his wife's family. At this time, the Minister of Finance of the whole province had to bow his head. This is a powerful person on a different level from their family, so they can't help being careless.
"Hello, Minister." Deleando came over to greet him with a stiff face. He first greeted Tivana, then looked at Gallon, opened his mouth, blushed and didn't know what to say. He had a conflict with Garen back then, but now the other party has far surpassed him, looking down on him from a higher level. This kind of aggrieved feeling in his heart made him feel hot all over, and he wanted to find a crack in the ground to get in.
"We were at fault for what happened to Brother Garong. Please forgive me." On the contrary, Venus smiled embarrassingly, and quickly apologized.
"I didn't take it to heart. Do things with peace of mind in the future. Just don't be smart. Don't want to rely on outsiders easily. Many times, you may not be so bad." Gallon said with a faint smile. He didn't have much hostility towards these two youths who had been particularly hostile to him. Both of them had suffered a bit under his hands back then. Anyway, he is the one who takes advantage, so naturally he has nothing to worry about.
"Okay, I'll talk about the old days later. Minister Devanner, Garen, come this way. Let's go to the meeting room." Uncle Till led the way to the study.
Garen and Tivaner followed closely behind. After the three of them entered the door, several imposing personal bodyguards and Cynthia stood outside the door, not allowing anyone to approach.
The black door was closed tightly, and Lombas, Deleando, and Venus outside the door looked at the door of the conference room with complicated eyes.
"It's in vain that we regarded him as our great enemy at the beginning, but now it seems that he is not on the same level as us at all." Venus said helplessly in a low voice.
Driando clenched his fists tightly and exhaled heavily, his whole body seemed to be relieved all of a sudden, without saying a word.
Lombas felt a little embarrassed. At the beginning, he had been sneering at Gallon, and he was neither yin nor yang, but now they didn't bother with him. However, he was also a little happy in his heart. Garen looked much tougher than his father now, and his younger sister had always had a good relationship with him. His father has always been very kind to him. In this way, Garen's power was also a huge boost to his family.
Filia looked at the door of the conference room in the same silent manner, her eyes wandering, wondering what she was thinking.
***********
meeting room
Garen, Uncle Till, and Minister of Finance Tivaner sat opposite each other, forming a triangle around the round table.
The large study room was quiet, only three people sat down, not even the bodyguards came in.
Tiffany picked up the cigars prepared on the table and began to trim them slowly with scissors.
"I am here this time. In fact, Mr. Garon, you should have a general understanding of my purpose. I am here on behalf of senior officials of Wahana."
"I am very clear about the position of the senior officials of Wahana, but I just don't know how strong you are and how strong the impact will be. You know, our Baiyunmen is just a small family. We have experienced many things during this period, but we can no longer I can't stand the toss of strong winds and waves." Garen crossed his fingers and said lightly.
"You are too modest. The senior official means that as long as you can stand up and support his work, it will also be a great contribution to the stability and stability of the province's general environment." Tivaner smiled. He paused, and understood that the most taboo thing to do when negotiating with a warrior like Garen was to beat around the bush, so he simply pointed it out. "As long as you can express your attitude and promote the stability of the province, the government will also introduce relevant policies to help the development of local industries. Now that the country is facing a crisis, we naturally have to concentrate our strength to support the rapid development of local industries and make contributions to resist foreign economic invasion. a contribution."
Glancing at Garen, Tivaner added.
"Recently, the government will introduce a series of support measures for local economic development. However, the specific measures still need to be investigated in practice. Only after listening to the opinions and suggestions of local economic leaders can they be effective."
Garen understood what he meant.
The meaning of these words is that as long as you agree to support high-ranking officials, then the conditions are easy to negotiate, as long as it is within a certain range, you can raise it yourself. And once the government has any benefits, it will not forget your share.
He thought for a while, he himself had nothing to do with it, but there were quite a few people who followed him to eat, drink and work, and he had to seek better development and benefits for everyone and the entire group.
Uncle Till on the side watched the two bargaining, but his heart was shaken.
He also knew that Garen's Baiyunmen was powerful, but at that time it was only a small local gate with little influence, at most it was the city. Unexpectedly, in just a short time, the influence of Baiyunmen has reached the point where the senior official Wahana has to pay attention to it, and put down his arrogance to seek cooperation. In contrast, his own influence is not as good as this nephew who has been familiar since childhood.
Only then did he realize that he had underestimated the influence of Baiyunmen, or the speed of development of Baiyunmen after Garen came to power.
After some discussion between Garen and Tivaner, they finally came to an extremely exaggerated mutual agreement.
Garen acquiesced in the action of the high-level officials, and the high-level officials issued a policy against the Baiyunmen industry: all staff working for the Baiyunmen will be exempted from personal income tax, and at the same time have the right to deal with criminals within the door.
Internal criminal processing power! This article means that if a person related to Baiyunmen commits a criminal case, it must be handled internally, and it is not the police station's turn to handle it.
This kind of exaggerated policy was actually allowed to Baiyunmen.
Tire watched silently as the two quickly signed the agreement, and then kept each of them in duplicate. Obviously, the authority given to Tivaner by senior officials has not reached its limit, and more conditions can be imposed, but Garen is not an insatiable person.
After negotiating the agreement, Tivaner began to discuss with Tyre in a decent manner, asking about rectification suggestions for the local economy, obviously for the sake of Garen's face, and at the same time to win over local influential figures like him. Offer a series of favorable conditions.
In the end, the three reached an agreement and all got what they wanted.
After the door of the conference room was opened, Tivaner took the lead to say goodbye and left.
Garen and his uncle sent him downstairs, and then the two found a private room to sit down and catch up.
At the same time, Lombas and Filia were called in.
