Lisko’s American Life

"Sir, Mr. Governor is going to hold a meeting in one hour, please attend on time."

The staff of the government office knocked on the door in time to inform Les of the news, and only then interrupted Les's continued lyrical state.

"Okay, I see, thank you for the notice."

Les's attitude was still very kind. Seeing his subordinate leave with an excited expression on his face, he knew that his method had worked.

These methods were also the character design that the campaign team prepared for him before the disbandment. After all, he just arrived in the government office and is not very familiar with many things, so having a kind face can make friends with many subordinates and win over his own strength.

Les didn't stay idle after receiving the notification. Although it was an hour later, the time was still fast. He had to hurry up and perfect the plan he had made, and check again to see if there was anything to be revised.

As soon as the councilor took office, Mr. Governor gathered all the staff of the government office to hold a meeting. One is to introduce new faces to all the staff, so that the future work will be much smoother. If the long-cherished wish comes, you must always give others a chance to give back to the voters, otherwise it will not be so easy to solicit votes later.

When the time came, Les made preparations and resolved his own situation first. After all, this meeting is usually very long. If there are personal problems to be resolved in the middle, it will not be so solemn.

Then he had to carefully check his attire. Today was his first day in the top management of the state capital. A good image was also very important.

After getting ready, Les went out with high spirits. Under the guidance of the staff, he entered the venue. The people next to him had almost arrived. Les smiled at the re-elected members on the left and right, and then Sit down where your sign is placed.

Because Les is a newly promoted member of parliament, everyone has not yet figured out his background and ability, so they are not stingy with their enthusiasm, nodding and smiling.

Les looked around at the venue's facilities. Although Colorado is not an international region known for its economy, the government's facilities are still very luxurious. After all, Denver has been rated as the most livable city in the United States many times. There are hidden rich people here. There are countless people.

As a businessman, if you want to develop smoothly in the United States, you will inevitably have to deal with the government. Therefore, various government departments often receive large donations, so the government's cars and office buildings have been repaired very luxuriously. .

The United States is the area most influenced by British culture. The conference hall in Colorado also continues the British architectural style. Above it is the rostrum, and the names on the seats are the governor and other senior state officials.

Members of the legislature are located a little further back, forming a fan shape, facing the rostrum.

Behind the congressman's area, there are neatly arranged positions. This is the fixed area of ​​each department. No matter which party the governor is from, the authority of these departments cannot be shaken.

"Hi, you're Congressman Les, right? I'm Braden from the Donkey Party. Nice to meet you."

The member of parliament next to him seemed a little older than Lies, but he was still in his prime. Sitting with him, Lies was very eye-catching in the entire team of members with an average age of fifty.

"Hi, I'm Les, nice to meet you."

Les looked at the colleague with an obvious English appearance next to him. Although he was puzzled by the other party's enthusiasm, he still extended his hand kindly.

"Since you were elected, I'm not the youngest member of Parliament anymore, which has relieved me a lot of stares."

Perhaps it was because they were all about the same age, Braden was very relaxed with Les, shrugging his shoulders gloatingly at him.

"I do not understand."

Les asked curiously.

"Is there anything wrong with being young?"

He really didn't know what this position had to do with age, so Braden was so happy and couldn't hide his joy when he saw Les, who was younger than him, take the position.

"You don't understand, this position also has a chain of contempt. In Colorado, everyone trusts older congressmen, but for us young people, the trust is not so high. Maybe we don't have that much experience, so I was rarely delegated last year."

Speaking of this, Braden is full of bitterness. He originally planned to make a career with great enthusiasm when he got this position, but the contempt chain of his age made it almost impossible for him to intervene. I spend my days watering the flowers in my office and reading newspapers.

When Les wanted to ask something, the door of the exhibition hall was pushed open, and Mr. Governor, who had met before, opened the door and came in, followed by other senior officials.

Everyone in the venue stood up to show their respect to Mr. Governor, and Braden and Rees were no exception.

"Okay. Sit down, please."

The governor stood in his position, looked at the faces of everyone in the audience, and lowered his palms to signal everyone to take their seats.

"I see that no one is absent. Let's start this year's meeting. First, let us welcome the congressmen who have won the election this year. On behalf of the State of Colorado, I welcome you to perform your duties. I hope that everyone can work together to develop Colorado. Our people lead a good life,"

After the governor's speech, the bosses of each department stood up and reported their department's achievements this year and the goals for the next stage.

The first is the fire department. Because Colorado is backed by the Rocky Mountains and is also a city with frequent wildfires, the fire department has more authority than other state capitals.

Les held his notebook and listened to the chief of the fire department’s proposal to the governor that he hoped that more funds would be allocated next year so that the fire department could purchase more fire-fighting facilities in order to face the frequent occurrence of wildfires in summer and the loss of departmental tasks this year. Life's pension for firefighters.

Although this is not within the scope of his own responsibility, Les listened carefully and learned from it to get in touch with the official affairs of the state capital.

Next is the police station. As a department that maintains the security of the entire state capital, the police station wants to apply for approval to increase the treatment of small town police officers to recruit more front-line police officers. The law and order in this place in the United States is still very poor. , If there is not enough police force, there is no way to take into account the security of each area.

There are quite a few people who go missing in the United States every year. Excluding those who are trafficked and those who disappear naturally, there are still many man-made crimes. Some of them can be solved here, while others can only be piled up in the archives of the police station. .
