Metropolis: My Rising Life

The Supreme Military Council is led by seven members and several deputy members.

It has seven departments and five directly-affiliated agencies, commanding six major arms, including land, sea, air, rocket, strategic support and logistics, and seven war zones.

There are also three directly affiliated colleges and even independent courts and procuratorates.

This is the highest military institution parallel to the Senate, and the fourteen-member coalition composed of the seven senators of the Senate and the seven members of the Supreme Military Council is the highest authority that governs the country.

In late February, after the Spring Festival, the Supreme Military Council held an internal meeting that was not open to the public.

Seven members and many deputy members all participated, discussing the work process for the next year and the succession of the two members who are about to retire.

In a majestic building in the imperial capital, many guards from bright and dark posts stand guard with guns and live ammunition. Every Supreme Military Conference is held in a big fight, and security measures must be taken to the extreme.

After all, the seven congressmen and many deputy congressmen who are holding the meeting are the Supreme Command. If there is a little problem, it will be an earthquake-like event.

This time, the internal private meeting was only a preview in advance, and the actual assembly of parliamentarians did not begin until April.

The private internal meeting is actually the time when the real business is done. When the plenary meeting is held, it is a form of reporting the results of the work directly.

A meeting was held from morning to evening to formulate the basic guidelines for this year's work, and then there will be small coordination meetings of various departments to fill in the content of these frameworks.

At the end of the meeting, Chen Lao was dressed in uniform and tall and straight. After chatting with some old friends, after receiving their congratulations, he was about to leave the building and return to his office.

I'm a little busy at work today, I guess I can't go back home.

"Old Chen, wait a minute!"

At this time, there was a full of air from behind Old Chen. He stopped and looked back and saw an old man about his age walking at a vigorous pace.

"Old Li, what's the matter?"

Seeing this old man, Mr. Chen just smiled and asked.

This elder Li is also about to become a deputy member of the Seven Congresses this year. Each member has a ten-year term, and it is not every year that someone retires.

This year, two Members have retired and two Deputy Members will be on top. This is also considered an unwritten rule.

After all, it is impossible for the seven members of the Supreme Council to retire at the same time, and the successor estimates that they will not be able to do anything in a short period of time.

It is precisely because there are elderly people in front that after about seven or eight years, all the old members have retired, and the former new members have also become elderly, and then brought new people, so that the cycle will not cause problems in the work.

"Are you busy? Come over and chat with me if you are not busy."

Lao Li greeted and said.(Read more @ mtlarchive.com)

Old Chen thought for a while. He didn't have any major issues next, so he just agreed and sat down in a meeting room with Old Li in this building.

The guards of the two men stood guard outside the door, allowing the two old men to chat inside.

"What's the matter, God is mysterious."

As a soldier, Chen Lao asked straightforwardly, without so many humorous questions.

Lao Li is also a soldier and doesn't like going around in circles. He just smiled and said, "...I heard that the old Han family and the younger generation said that your Chen family has a little evildoer."

Old Chen hehehe smiled and said, "...that is my brother's grandson, that is, my grandson."

He couldn't help but feel a little proud of his tone, like the comfort of being a grandfather of old age, and the kindness of being a grandfather.

Even if he is about to rule the world, step into the highest center of power, and become the real power holder, he is also an old man over 60 years old.

Naturally, Chen Yi couldn't hide this thing from these old people, especially since he was related to Old Chen, others would naturally pay more attention to him.

There are not so many enchanting geniuses in this world, but in the circle of nobles, especially in the top aristocratic circle, there are almost no such enchantings, and they are truly rare.

These top-level nobles are just like the richest second generations. Most of them are ordinary people. Even if they are well educated, they are only the elite class. They rely on family relationships and contacts.

And a evildoer suddenly appeared in such a group, and it will naturally be paid attention to by all parties.

Mr. Li patted Mr. Chen on the shoulder without saying anything, which was comforting.

The things in Chen's hometown are no secrets. People at this level know that it can only be said to be the regret of the times, the regrets brought about by crossing the river by touching the rocks in that era.

After sighing, Mr. Chen was wary and said: "...what did you mention my Xiaoyi? Do you still want to introduce him to him?"

When Mr. Li heard it, he laughed and said, "...I think, but I don't have a suitable girl in my family, but there is a niece, but I guess your kid doesn't like it."

Not everyone is in the same generational chaos as the Chen family. Mr. Li is in his early sixties this year and his son is in his forties. Although he has a grandson, his grandson is less than eight years old.

Unlike Mr. Chen, the girl is only in her twenties.

Listening to this old man boasting about his child, Mr. Chen was also proud of his heart, and he was as proud of how good his child was as an ordinary aunt showed off in front of other aunts.

"I'm not interested in your boy's marriage, but the old Han family may be interested. You have to pay attention."

Old Li casually mentioned that it was not a reminder. After all, the Han family did not want to treat Chen Yi, but Chen Yi was kind to the Han family.

Old Chen shook his head and said, "¨〃...the children and grandchildren's affairs are left to their own disposal. What age is this, we old men should not intervene."

"...You mentioned our Xiaoyi, what is it that has something to do with him?"

Old Li nodded lightly and said, "...it's the matter of the transportation department. You also know that I have a good relationship with the Li family. They asked me for one thing."

"...The kid in your family has done a good job in his career and he has the ability. The most important thing is that he is a child of your old Chen family."

Old Chen thought thoughtfully, and asked: "...Is it the high-speed rail?"

"Well, that's the case. You also know that infrastructure construction costs a lot. Railway debt is nearly five trillion yuan. Although these are high-quality debts, you don't need to worry too much."

"... But if the transportation department doesn't do something, wouldn't it appear to be incompetent."

"So they want to find individuals to cooperate and allow private capital to intervene, but they can't let capital control their lifeline, so this requires a person who takes the lead."

"...Of course, this person should be our own. The kid from your family is the most suitable. As you know, the kid from the Li family wants to go further and needs some political achievements, and this reduction of debt is obviously a good performance hindrance."

Old Chen did not directly agree, but said: "...I will go back and discuss it with Xiao Yi."

For a while, he will not be able to consider whether there is a problem, whether there is a pit, after all, political struggle is very scary, and you must be cautious.

Old Chen had to go back and think about the twists and turns.

"Don't worry, who dares to cheat Lao Chen your family, you are so cautious, no one can cheat you, this is a good thing, just let your boy into this circle."

"...Old Chen, go back and think about it first. If you think it's okay, just talk to your kid, hey, there happened to be a girl in the Li family who kept talking about your stinky kid."

Old Li laughed.

"Sure, if there is no problem, and it is good for Xiao Yi, of course I will let him do it."

Old Chen agreed.

He is now in a high position with power over the world, and it is very difficult for ordinary people to really want to fight him. .
