Cosma Empire

Louie has a secret that no one knows.

His father was not the honest and loyal cobbler, but the ruler of the city, the mayor of Namirindes.

His mother, who used to be the mayor's mistress, was unable to marry the mayor because she was pregnant, so she chose a loyal and honest cobbler from a good family as her future life partner. The reason why he was able to discover this was because when he was seven years old, he secretly followed his mother to play a game of police and thief that only one person knew. He watched his mother enter a luxurious hotel. I haven't come out of the villa for a long time.

He waited at the door for a long time, not because he didn't want to go home, but because he forgot the way home.

Then he saw his mother coming out of the villa on the arm of a man, and both saw him. He still remembers the man pointing at him and asking, whose child is this.

His mother smiled and told the man, this is your child.

He was an illegitimate child, and for a long time he felt that this was a kind of humiliation to him, and for this he hated his mother and his father whom he only met once. He wanted to tell his current father about this many times, but he thought that the family might be broken, and the father who always regarded him as his only might collapse, so he kept this secret in his heart.

until he comes of age.

The world of adults and the world of children seem to be different. Children always have a very clear view of right and wrong. It is easy to change one's original intention of distinguishing right from wrong. But adults are different. Adults have been subjected to too much temptation or coercion, and they are always bowing their heads to the constant compromise of fate. It is obviously right, but they will violate their conscience and say it is wrong, just to prevent themselves from being hurt. .

When his father gave him a set of utility knives for making leather goods, he realized that this might not be the path he wanted to take. He doesn't want to waste his life in a small room with those smelly leathers, he doesn't want to be a cobbler, he doesn't want to hold up the stinky feet of those high-ranking people, and he has to carefully measure the data for them . He didn't want to be the cobbler who sold a lot of leather goods, but he was reluctant to wear them, even if the cobbler could make a lot of money, and it was someone's dream.

So he found his biological father, hoping that the other party could arrange a decent job for him. The man didn't agree to him immediately, but let him yell "papa", which is what his father meant, but it was more colloquial.

From then on, he got the first pot of gold in his life, one thousand yuan, and a promising job-the boss of a company.

He used a thousand dollars to build a garbage station at the request of his biological father, then bought some human-powered garbage trucks, and got a community recycling program in unimaginable ways. He once thought it was the biological father who was humiliating him, but he didn't understand that this was life until after the first month's settlement.

Garbage may seem inconspicuous, and it is. The garbage generated in the downtown area will always be just garbage. But in Uptown, especially in some of the upper-class neighborhoods, trash is treasure. Those rich people and their women don't care how many times the clothes in their hands are worn, whether they are damaged or not, as long as the time is up, they will be thrown into the trash can.

These clothes, which were worth hundreds of dollars a while ago, became garbage. Besides the garbage, there were also some "worthless" trinkets, or furniture and the like. He only needs to transport these things to the recycling station, and after simple processing, he can sell them to ordinary people at a relatively high price, and even some middle-class people have become his regular customers. They bought these luxuries at such a low price that they could show off their affluence and decency. This was a very good deal for everyone.

His garbage station business is getting bigger and bigger,

In the end, all the human-powered garbage trucks were eliminated, replaced with better trucks, and the business expanded to the entire uptown area. No one knows his relationship with the mayor, only their "family" knows.

He used to think that he might spend his whole life growing up in these rubbish dumps, and occasionally helped his biological father, the great mayor, spy on some important people, or find something from these people's domestic garbage. Until some time ago, his father sent him a sum of money to buy some very expensive and heavy machines and ordered a lot of materials.

So, he has such a factory, an accessory factory that produces "money".

Everything he produces here will be sold to another person, who used to be the mayor's secretary and was fired because of a mistake. Just like many people don't know that Louis is the mayor's son, these people also don't know that the secretary and the mayor still maintain a very close relationship. He was fired, and he was just acting for others to see. He helped the mayor deal with some unreasonable things from an official point of view.

Nami Lindes is a mixed bag, and some things are really inconvenient for the officials to deal with. It's like some people didn't abide by the rules of the game in this city. They crossed the line, but they didn't leave anything obvious. Obviously you know they deserve to die, but you just can't make a move.

At this time, the role of the secretary is manifested, he can do it, because he is a despicable villain, even the magnanimous mayor can't tolerate him. The disputes between him and those people are just the talk of most ordinary people after dinner, anecdotes like dog eat dog.

This is how the mayor's 22-year iron-blooded career in Namirindes was born. He said that he will not go anywhere in his life, and even if he retires, he will retire in Namirindes. These words made many people become his supporters, thinking that this is a very, very rare good mayor...

Wearing glasses and looking very gentle, the former secretary walked into the factory through the small door. He glanced at the baskets of assembled tokens stacked aside, and took out his notebook to record them.

"You don't worry about me?" Louis is very upset every time he sees this guy recording everything he sees here with a notebook and pen, which makes him feel like a thief, and he is still in his own factory inside!

The former secretary put away the notebook and pen with a smile, "Not to mention!" In fact, Louis was right, the former secretary was indeed worried about him, the mayor never said what relationship Louis had with him, but with the help of the former secretary With the tacit understanding of helping the mayor for a year, he has already guessed what kind of connection this bastard has with the mayor. It's only natural that he despises this kid. Apart from relying on the mayor's face to contract the garbage collection in the upper city and gaining a little fame, he has no ambition at all.

If it were someone else, with such a good platform, it might have developed even better. And this guy, who knows how to eat, drink, and have fun all day long, waits to die, how can he like such a guy?

Garbage is always garbage, and it will not stop being garbage just because it can be sold for money.

"I want to take this batch of goods away. You arrange someone to load them into the car. Also, stop after finishing what you're doing now, and go visit our friends to see how they are doing." The former secretary ordered He walked to the edge of the assembly line, picked up a polished chip, and rubbed it carefully.

There is a layer of silver on the surface of these tokens, and they have spent a lot of brainpower on these materials. The large denomination tokens used in Odis City have their own unique features. For example, the five hundred yuan tokens feel like they are made of silver, while the one thousand yuan tokens feel like they are made of gold. In order to imitate it so that it is difficult to distinguish, they finally adopted a relatively stupid method, that is, copper cladding.

The silver and gold were hammered into a piece as thin as cloth, and then wrapped with a layer of copper plate, and then they overcame many difficulties. It took them three days to solve the problem of making large-denomination tokens.

These things... are all money!

A hint of intoxication flashed in the former secretary's eyes, and he soon came to his senses. If the mayor's plan was followed, even if Namirindes declined, their income would not be greatly affected. A steady stream of cash flows into their pockets from Odis City every day. In the past, the mayor did not intend to leave here because of the many interests involved, but seeing that Nami Lindes was about to go down the road of decline, the mayor suddenly became interested in running for governor.

It takes money to run for governor, and only a lot of money can buy key important people, let those members of the state assembly cast their precious votes, and be able to make more posters and paste them all over the streets. Only after they have a lot of money, can they use money to attract people from all walks of life in society, and in the next election year, tick the option that belongs to the mayor.

It's good to collect more funds for yourself, and at the same time, to be able to attack this opponent who has ruined the Mayor's business for twenty-two years.

After the former secretary left with all the accumulated tokens, Louis also put on his coat. He didn't like the former secretary in his mouth or heart, but he knew that this person represented his own father, and he had to pay a return visit to those who used fake tokens to see if there was any problem.

In the evening, covered in cold sweat, he found a phone booth and made a call to the former secretary.

"Kost's family is missing. Some people say that their family was picked up in a car heading to Odis, but they haven't returned yet. He hasn't called his company, will it... ..."
