Cosma Empire

Chapter 1321 Destined Child with BGM and Gaffer

If the office building of the new party can be described as luxurious, then the office building of the old party should be described as luxurious.

All kinds of expensive antique oil paintings can be seen everywhere, and those collections worth tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands are randomly placed at the corner of a certain corridor in the office building, and on the walls outside some office doors. .

Even the hanging chandeliers are pure crystal lamps handcrafted by well-known craftsmen of all sizes.

If you haven't been to the old party's office building, you will definitely not understand that money is nothing in the eyes of this group of people.

In fact, the transfer of interests of the old party has always been more like a tradition, a tradition among nobles, the lower nobles transfer the interests to the upper nobles, and then the upper nobles will be responsible for protecting the interests of the lower nobles from infringement, and appropriate given a certain opportunity.

This approach was applicable to any aristocratic system in the past, just like the game of "the people under the rule - the small nobles - the big nobles - the leader of the noble group". Money does not represent wealth, but a specific means of loyalty.

Of course, money is still useful. The expenditure of the old party is much larger than that of the new party. In addition to accomplishing many great things over the years, Magus has also cut down various expenditures of the new party and the government.

People in the new party are used to living a "hard life", but those in the old party are not used to it. This part of the interest called "donation" will be used to maintain the party's daily expenses and welfare distribution.

It seems that the lower-level officials transfer the benefits to the top and then disappear, but in fact they are fed back to everyone's hands through other means.

The office building of the old party is opposite the office building of the new party. The "old nests" of the two parties are only separated by a road. Even if we can meet each other, even if we don't speak, it is always necessary to nod to maintain each other's demeanor.

When Du Lin entered the meeting hall, it was like a boulder falling into a pool of water. Whether it was the ripples or the original splashes, they were all blown up. Suddenly people lost their ability to speak, and quickly affected people. In the entire conference hall, there was not a single extraneous sound.

People were either shocked or looked at Du Lin indifferently, but Kubal deliberately lagged behind. In people's eyes, Du Lin came here alone.

After about ten seconds of silence, someone suddenly laughed and said loudly, "Look what I found... a new party member who is alone!"

There was laughter in the huge room, it seemed that this guy had told a very great joke, but Du Lin couldn't find any point of laughter,

As he walked forward, he raised his head and retorted, "But you dare not stand in front of me and say this in front of me!"

The momentary laughter was choked by an invisible force for a moment, and there were some low-pitched curses in the hall that calmed down again, but just like Du Lin said, no one dared to stand in front of him. Taunting him is courting death.

When someone was about to attack Durin again, the coughing sound from the door made these people lose their minds. Kubal caught up with Durin's pace with a sullen face, and the two walked towards the rostrum together.

Under the rostrum, Durin stopped in his tracks, while Kubal went straight up.

As the leader of the old party and the prime minister of the empire, he naturally sat in the center of the rostrum, flanked by the chairman of the old party committee, the whip of the old party, the three vice-chairmen of the old party, and the minister of the old party's action department.

Job titles vary between the two parties, but not entirely.

Among the internal departments of the old party, the Action Department was second only to the Presidium. If the Action Department had to be given a clearer title of authority, then the "Party Work Executive Department" might make it a little clearer.

Whether it is the decision of Kubal, the party leader, or the decision of the old party committee, the person who is ultimately responsible for implementing these decisions is the Executive Department. This department is more like a "vice bureau", so the Minister of Operations also sits on the rostrum .

As for the party whip, the power of the party whip of the ruling party is much higher than that of the party whip of the non-ruling party. Simply put, the party whip of the ruling party can not only interfere, supervise, and punish members of the party who violate the constitution, but also Interfere in some behaviors outside the party that humiliate and damage the party's image and interests in various ways, file complaints against the specific perpetrators, and have certain supervision rights over the public's behavior.

Everyone knows that status is shown within the party, and power is shown outside the party, so the party whip of the ruling party will be ranked third, and sometimes it will be fourth.

The people on the rostrum just looked at Du Lin curiously and didn't say anything. Their status was far from those below. Others could freely discuss the reason why Du Lin appeared here, but they couldn't.

Because every sentence of people of their level has certain effects to some extent, legal effects, political effects, and other powers.

Every sentence has to be weighed before it can be said on a fair occasion, which makes them not easy to speak before they understand the essence of the matter.

The quiet conference hall is much more comfortable than that of the New Party. The stepped conference room of the New Party is full of "ordinary" tables and chairs, but here, they are all luxurious leather sofas, and some waiters are providing drinks and snacks. !

They don't seem to be having a meeting here at all, but chatting and having dinner here.

A few minutes later, as the clock ticked towards the hour, Kubal tapped the microphone and the room fell silent.

Kubal has a high status in the old party and is also very respected, because he defeated Magus and became the second imperial prime minister after Magus, so people respect him and think that he is the old party leader. The key to the party defeating the new party.

"Durin, I think all of us know him. If someone doesn't know him, then you must have spent your time watching TV on studying..." Kubal resolved the previous issue with the cold humor unique to the nobility. A small conflict between Dühring and members of the old party organization.

He waited for everyone to smile before continuing, "Actually, I allowed Mr. Dühring to come to our meeting this time. He persuaded me in my office, but I think this is not enough. If he wants to Get what he wants, then he should be here to convince you, not me!"

Most of them were quick to get into their roles, and they already had something special in what Kubal had to say.

This is also the reason why Kubal decided to let Durin persuade these people. He could indeed persuade these people, but these people may not always be convinced. This is the gap between ordinary people and nobles.

Politicians who come from ordinary people will have a political "moral sense of shame". These people have a spontaneous centripetal force and persistence in the cause they are engaged in and the party they join. If there is no major change, they will seldom change easily. Take your own position, and follow the orders of your superiors, and work hard to fulfill your responsibilities.

But the nobles are different. From the day when every nobleman is sensible, the education he has received has made him understand a truth. The reason why he can enjoy the material wealth and wealth that other people can't struggle for in a few lifetimes or a dozen lifetimes Political status does not mean that he will meet some great friends and join some great party in the future.

All of this was bestowed on him by the family, and it is the wealth left by countless ancestors and many generations of hard work. Without the family, there would be no these, and without the family, there would be no them!

Therefore, in the minds of nobles, the interests of the family are always higher than the interests of individuals and non-family organizations.

Kubal can persuade them, but they will also change, especially the initiator of the whole thing is not Kubal, but Durin, and they will not even feel ashamed when they change their positions.

Rather than letting Kubal speak, it is better to let Durin speak, because Durin's broken mouth can speak well, and Kubal feels that he can be persuaded, so other people are more likely to be persuaded, truly persuaded.

The two looked at each other, and Kubal continued, "I promised Mr. Durin, and I will give him ten minutes. He will spend ten minutes explaining the situation and then asking for something. As for whether he can succeed, I will leave it to you. Decided." He said, looking at the staff next to him, "Prepare a microphone for Mr. Dulin."

After more than ten seconds, a microphone fell into the hands of Durin. Kubal got a small clock and put it on the table of the rostrum, then nodded, "Ten minutes, Mr. Durin, you can start gone."

Du Lin looked around at the backbone of the old party who looked like the nobles and gentlemen in the drama, and couldn't help lowering his head and laughing.

Sometimes people are so cheap, even if they know that Du Lin's smile is trying to attract their attention, and the explanation behind this smile must be unpleasant, they are still successfully seduced by curiosity.

"Mr. Du Lin, excuse me, are you going to laugh for ten minutes?" Someone from the old party members present shouted, his tone full of dissatisfaction.

Du Lin shrugged his shoulders, and he looked in the direction of the voice, "May I know which gentleman said it just now?"

One of them raised his hand. This is also the subtle difference between nobles and ordinary people. At least the nobles will not deny it shamelessly.

For nobles, decency and demeanor are second only to family interests, and in some families, decency and demeanor are even more important than family interests, especially those families that were once brilliant but are now declining. Heavier than his own life.

Someone raised his hand, Du Lin was not surprised, he smiled and nodded, "Let me explain, I laughed just because I thought that four years later, you will never be able to sit here peacefully like a noble If you maintain your appearance like that, you will throw things, curse people, and do something out of style in a fit of anger, and I can't help but want to laugh."

"Your modesty, decency, demeanor, aloofness, there are still four years left, and after four years, you will lose them forever!"

This sentence caused a little discussion in the conference hall, and someone said loudly, "Mr. Du Lin, if you just want to use such an uncertain assumption to intimidate us, then you may have misplaced your attention."

"Threat?" Du Lin looked surprised, "Do I need to intimidate you?"

"I'm just stating a fact, it's not just you, the old party, and the new party will be a joke four years from now, but it's not a joke."

Someone stood up and wanted to speak, but Du Lin pointed at him and made a gesture of refusal to stop him. He continued, "Some people will say that I am exaggerating some problems, or even fabricating some differences, but that is just you guys. An excuse that you don't want to admit!"

"When I walked in through the gate, you only stared at my identity as a member of the new party organization. I knew you didn't realize that the changes in this world have exceeded our imagination."

He pointed to the outside and said loudly, "Over there, the Labor Party, which already has more than 6 million organization members, is still rapidly developing organization members. They do not participate in any current political events, but only focus on developing the number of members. Four years later, their membership will exceed 10 million, influencing the votes of at least one-fifth of the households in the empire."

"There is also the Imperial Party. I believe that the northern nobles' recognition of the Imperial Party does not need me to explain. You have better channels than me to learn more about the inside story. Those nobles who were excluded from the political circle by us finally found it." The way you get involved in politics, ladies and gentlemen, do you still think they're going to be as non-threatening as they were?"

Du Lin retracted the outstretched hand with all his strength, clenched it tightly into a fist, and waved it fiercely, "No, never!"

"One-fifth of the people in the empire have become the votes of the Labor Party, and the other one-fifth of the people have become supporters of the Imperial Party. However, our old and new parties are still hostile to each other. The idea of ​​the new party trampled to death?"

There was a thick mockery and sarcasm on his face, "Stupid!"

"After the new party is finished, a large number of people will join the Labor Party and the Imperial Party, and only a very small number of people may join the old party. Congratulations, ladies and gentlemen, you have given your greatest help to you The enemy is just to make you have no chance to fight back when they beat you!"

"The Labor Party has set its goal four years later. The imperial party has begun to take shape and started to exert its strength. We are still fighting here. If this is not stupid, then what is stupid?"

The room was silent, everyone was either thinking or shocked by the situation.

In fact, they are not unaware of the current political situation in the empire. The people who can sit here to participate in the meeting are not the kind of youngsters who can't make three farts, but they choose to ignore those external threats.

This is not to say that they are stupid, so stupid that no one realizes these things, it's just that they are too proud and their nerves are paralyzed by the victory in front of them.

The victory for the first time in thirty years made them feel proud, and the big election victories in various states made many people in the old party think that the new party was no longer justified, so the Labor Party and the Imperial Party, which were established less than two years ago, were even less of a match for them.

Even though the Labor Party and the Imperial Party already have some strength, they are still not rivals. They lack background, and people will not believe them.

But now, Du Lin shattered their self-deception and showed the most realistic side in front of them.

Indeed, at the current stage, neither the Labor Party nor the Imperial Party is the opponent of the old party, but the goal of these people is not the mid-term election, but four years later.

Four years, more than a thousand days, enough to happen too many things to affect this empire, the entire society, and every citizen!

Ten million families, at least 20 million votes, have been able to win at least three to five states. Once the northern states are taken by the imperialists, the remaining places may not get much. up.

There are more than 200 cities and towns in the empire, and there are only 16 states in total. This has almost been taken away by the Labor Party and the Imperial Party, and the rest... how to divide it?

No matter how it is divided, it means one thing-the new party and the old party will lag behind the Labor Party and the Imperial Party in four years.

This is just a very simple arithmetic problem, because it is so simple, one plus one equals two levels.

The long silence made the atmosphere in the conference hall somewhat depressing, and the issues Du Lin mentioned were also being exchanged in a low voice on the rostrum.

Although many people believe that in the face of the currently unlucky New Party, they can gain more fruits of victory by pursuing victory, but this does not mean that the New Party can really be wiped out.

There are still many supporters of the New Party in various places. No matter what people say, the two states of Woodland and Ambiluo are definitely the votes of the New Party. Durin and Holmes have reached the limit of governors. Their grip on the two states is very firm.

Sixteen minus two equals fourteen. In this campaign, there are still two states in the South that are firmly on the side of the New Party. If there is not much change, it will be difficult for them to change their camp. Twelve states remain.

The five northern states will inevitably be included in the territory of the imperial party. The Labor Party is winning three or five states. What will the old party do?

They are not even as good as the new party!

Even if the new party is deprived of another state, the old party cannot guarantee that it will win 100% in the election campaign, and it may fall behind and be kicked out at the beginning.

This kind of reality is indeed very difficult to accept. Just five minutes ago, they were still treating the empire and society from the perspective of historical victors, but five minutes later, they seemed to be cursed by Durin, To accept a future of inevitable failure?

How is this possible..., although it is really possible.

Next, Du Lin continued to use verbal knives to bruise these old party dignitaries all over their bodies. More detailed data analysis made many people panic. With the proliferation of clubs, these people finally couldn't hold back.

So the problem is coming, how to solve it?

"Mr. Dooling, if you just want to tell us a terrible future, then we already know it. The question now is, is there any way we can prevent this from happening?"

Du Lin put away his smile, took a deep breath, and replied confidently, "Of course, I am standing here to solve this problem!"

At this moment, it seemed that the eyes and lights of the whole world were focused on him, and his self-confidence and composure made people feel a kind of indescribable admiration from the bottom of their hearts.
