After a round of visits, Gu Xiangming borrowed more than 10,000 general coins from Wu Mian and looked at him with some embarrassment: "I used to have a few friends, but later they came to me to do things because I always borrowed money.
I also refused to go through the back door, so they avoided me like the god of plague. Thank you very much for today."
Wu Mian was delighted when he heard this: "You're welcome. I'm happy to be able to accumulate virtue and do good deeds."
As soon as the three of them arrived at the alley, several figures in suits suddenly appeared in front of them, blocking the way.
Immediately afterwards, the escape route behind was also blocked.
Lin Hansu felt threatened and moved her palms towards her waist.
Seeing this, Wu Mian gently held Lin Hansu's arm. He took Lin Hansu out, as long as it was to let this little girl experience a normal life. Once she was allowed to do it, with her neither light nor heavy style, she would be 100% sure.
A life has to be lost.
Before Gu Xiangming could speak, the crowd in front made way for a retreat, and then a middle-aged man with a big belly came up to him with a smile: "Congressman Gu, what a coincidence, you are here too!"
Gu Xiangming looked at another member of the Sixth District, and didn't give him a good look: "Is it a coincidence? I really don't think so! Ma Dongchang, you are really serious about running for the election this time, and you didn't even prepare votes for Chao Town.
Let it go!"
"Haha, you and I are the same. We are all chasing power. This year's election for the Sixth District Council is so fierce. As the saying goes, grasshopper meat is also meat. This place in Chao Town is not clean, but the votes do not distinguish between colors!"
Ma Dongchang had a smile on his face: "Lao Gu, after all, this year's parliamentary election should be the most intense in more than ten years. Eleven of the fifteen permanent members have announced their participation in the speaker's election, and you are
The one I am least optimistic about is because you have neither the endorsement of senior officials nor the support of corporate capital, so what can you do to compete with others?"
Gu Xiangming was stung by Ma Dongchang and responded: "The original intention of the democratic election policy was to be fair. It is you people who have made it deviate from its original meaning. The economy may control the election, but it cannot change the people's hearts! You do have money, but
Can you get all the poor people to side with you? If you could really do it, my voice would not be so loud!"
"Hahaha, you were brainwashed by those mud-legged people, so you think you can achieve great things! You have to understand one thing, there is a difference between people's experience and knowledge.
,The reason why the bottom is the bottom is because they can only see the immediate benefits!"
Ma Dongchang looked at Gu Xiangming with disdain: "Do you know how much a vote is worth in this place? Five hundred yuan! I believe that in Chao Town, 99% of the people don't know the rules of voting at all, or even
They didn't even know the words on the ballot, they only knew that as long as they chose me, they would get 500 general coins!
Do you think the reason why these people support you is because they think the policies you bring can change their lives? No! It’s just because you have been helping the poor for many years and are familiar with many of them. These people know that you are running for election.
That’s why I give you this face, but when the money to buy votes is handed over to you, it’s still unknown whether you are worth the five hundred yuan in the eyes of these people!”
"Do you know why this society is so rotten and people like you are so rampant? It is because in your eyes, whether it is the power they are fighting for or the residents here, they are just pawns in your eyes, all for your benefit.
"Servant, you think yourself too smart and think others too stupid!"
Gu Xiangming's shoulders shook with anger: "Do you really think that people at the bottom of society are like stupid pigs? If you really go deep into the grassroots, you will find that people at the bottom of society work much harder than you! They just don't
With the status of an aristocratic family, there is no platform for capital! They can only survive hard in this solid circle! But this does not mean that they are not working hard for a better life, nor does it mean that they cannot even distinguish between good and bad people! I admit it
The people's eyes can be blinded, but you will never be able to deceive them for a lifetime!"
"Haha, don't be so excited. After all, you and I are both lucky enough to have escaped from this class."
Ma Dongchang lit a cigar with a smile on his face: "Lao Gu, let's make it clear. In fact, I came to Chao Town specifically for you. I hope you will cooperate with me. You also know that the council is more advantageous.
Several candidates in the election have their own constituencies. The so-called campaign is actually just fighting for neutral votes outside the constituency. Although you are not a strong candidate to compete for the speaker, you have been wandering in the slums for so many years and have a large amount of money in your hands.
A loose ticket, that’s exactly what I need.”
Gu Xiangming cursed in vulgar words: "You need a lot of things. If you lack a father, do I have to marry your mother?"
"Your personality is really not suitable for being in politics. If you really become the speaker, it will definitely not be a good thing for you."
Ma Dongchang knew that Gu Xiangming had a bad temper. When he was in the work unit, he didn't deal with him at all, but now in order to win votes, he could only patiently say to him: "Lao Gu, I promise you, as long as you help me elect the speaker.
I will transfer you from the poverty alleviation department and let you take charge of finance! Haven’t you always wanted to do something practical for the Sixth District? As long as you get the financial power, your ambition can be realized! When the time comes, you want to allocate
How about how much poverty alleviation money you receive, and no one will stop you anymore?"
Gu Xiangming didn't answer at all, and strode forward: "Are you done? Get out of the way! I'm not like you who have nothing to do, I still have work to do!"
When a strong man next to Ma Dongchang saw Gu Xiangming's attitude, he reached out and grabbed him by the collar: "Damn it! My boss is talking to you, why are you pretending to be stupid here?"
"Snapped!"
Wu Mian saw the strong man's movements and grabbed the other man's wrist.
"You bastard! You are looking for death!"
Seeing Wu Mian's thin figure, the strong man didn't pay him any attention, and tried to push him aside. However, he felt that Wu Mian's arm was like an iron vice, making it difficult for him to move his arm. After a brief moment of shock, another man moved his arm.
A fist was raised fiercely.
After Wu Mian replaced his new spine, his body was no longer as fragile as before. The strength provided by the mechanical spine was definitely beyond what ordinary people could withstand. However, the strong man in front of him was much larger than Wu Mian. In order not to be exposed, he
As a synthetic human, he ducked sideways to avoid the strong man's punch and hit the strong man's chin with his elbow.
"Bang!"
The strong man was hit in his weak point and immediately fainted, his body hitting the ground heavily.
The people around Ma Dongchang were gangsters hired by him to handle election matters. When they saw Wu Mian knocking down a companion, they all rushed towards him.
