My Wife is a Counsel Chapter 68: Prelude
www.lnmao.org, the fastest update to the latest chapter of My Wife is an Archon!
The current mayor and the most promising candidate for the new mayor, Hines, suddenly announced that he would withdraw from the Rose Party and run for mayor as an independent candidate.
It immediately caused an uproar in the entire Gede area.
Hines said in the statement that by withdrawing from the Rose Party, he hopes to remove the shackles of history and create a better tomorrow for all citizens of Gill City with a freer mentality.
……
The fifty-eighth floor of the Gade Building.
Originally, the Adjutant General's Office was planning to station permanent guards and orderlies here, but the commander used the arrangements made by the Gaston Security Company.
From the female guards to the maids, they are all selected by the Gaston Security Company. They are all Gaed girls, which can be considered to increase local employment.
In the study at this time, Lu Ming was listening to Danilova's work report. Danilova had just met Jacob on behalf of the commander.
Nowadays, Danilova takes care of many of Lu Ming’s personal affairs.
Danilova was even promoted to Lieutenant Colonel Adjutant.
The captain of the special security company at the commander's residence is actually a bit like the deputy director of the adjutant's office. The adjutant Willy mainly helps the commander with official affairs, while Danilova focuses on personal affairs.
Including the first intelligence office in the Gede area, now also directly led by Danilova.
Of course, the only agency that controls this place is the Intelligence Department.
More than a dozen organizations of the Ged people have just merged into the "Home Front" party, and they all elected Jacob as the party leader.
Jacob also signed up to become one of the mayoral candidates.
Danilova met with Jacob and made several suggestions. The first point was to change the "Home Front" into the "Peaceful Home" party.
It hinted that he meant the commander.
It is not so easy to meet the commander Lu Ming now. The last time Jacob met the commander, the couple were invited to the commander's residence in the headquarters, which was already half a month ago.
Danilova's second suggestion to Jacob is that Jacob should still attack Haines crazily, even though the commander has already started to support Haines and participated in Haines' campaign speech.
We cannot call on Guade to vote for Hines.
Jacob readily agreed, including such an important matter as changing the name of the caucus.
Listening to Danilova's report, Lu Ming nodded with satisfaction.
"Sir, I feel that a powerful being has moved in on the second floor." Danilova blinked with blue eyes, "I sent someone to investigate, and his registered name is Sheston, from New Newman City. ”
Lu Ming nodded: "It's possible that they are here to seek revenge on Kunpeng, but I'm not afraid of it. If it's really them, it's not just this one who's here. This guy is just a bait to lure out Kunpeng."
If they are really here to seek revenge, they are the partners of Commissioner Gauss. Although the highest level has reached a local political compromise, these superpowers will not let it go if they die. This is a personal grudge.
"Ignore them for now. Kunpeng went to the Western Region to deal with some matters." Lu Ming made a gesture.
Kunpeng brought his secret message to the ten warlords armed in the Western Regions. These ten warlords were actually the original ten infantry brigade commanders.
There are many outstanding people in the United Kingdom. Now these ten guys have been instigated into cliques and are likely to fight each other for their territory.
It can only be said that everything is changing, and people's ideas will never remain unchanged. Without me, the group is leaderless. These ambitious guys have begun to run wild like wild horses, not only turning the so-called election into a joke, Instead, the ten people who watched and helped each other divided the territory among themselves and basically became ten warlords.
The democratically elected government cannot control them at all, and can only retreat to a few enlightened areas. The population controlled by a few democratically elected governments is probably less than one-tenth of the total population of the Western Region.
Now, the ten of them have begun to split for their own interests, forming three major military and political groups, and a melee may break out at any time.
Thinking about it, Lu Ming couldn't help but shake his head.
As soon as she walked out of the study, Eunice stood in front of Lu Ming with a happy face, "Father!"
Wearing a black and white school uniform skirt, white socks and **** leather shoes, and beautiful long red hair, she is very delicate and cute.
Lu Ming smiled and saw four small figures following Eunice, Scarlett's son Jack Jr., Scarlett's sister Madeleine's twin daughters Tao Qianer, and Si Grace, the four-year-old daughter of Carrie's sister Helen, was a little shy and hid in the back.
"Huh? Little John isn't here?" Lu Ming asked.
Of the six godsons and goddaughters, the eldest did not come, that is, Eunice's brother John Jr.
"He went to the concert! I haven't seen anyone since this morning." Eunice pouted dissatisfied, obviously a little angry at her brother's rebelliousness and disobedience.
"What concert?" Lu Ming was confused.
Danilova took a slight step forward, stood on tiptoe, and whispered in Lu Ming's ear: "Sir, it's the kind of concert that Braun Culture is popping up in various places now."
Lu Ming said oh, it was actually the kind of punk rock in his previous life in the 1960s and 1970s. In fact, it was young people venting their dissatisfaction with social reality. They basically screamed like wolves, and it was not real at all. rock culture. The so-called Shamate actually comes from punk culture.
Like the punk culture of the previous life, this kind of Braun rock can't be found in elegant venues. The so-called concerts may just be street singers setting up stalls on the grass in the park, and few can enter the bar.
Little John is obsessed with this?
Lu Ming frowned slightly, but thinking about Little John's experience, it didn't seem strange.
Danilova continued from the side: "Little John went to attend a concert organized by a few Braun rock singers who had wandered to Capone Town. Several singers were somewhat famous in the Braun circle, so Little John went. Yes, we have an informant following him."
Lu Ming nodded. It seemed that Danilova paid special attention to her godchildren and goddaughters. As for the informants she used, she avoided the suspicion of using them for personal use.
"Okay, if Little John isn't here, let's go to the zoo!" Lu Ming said with a smile.
The boys and girls immediately burst into cheers.
Danilova took two steps away, picked up the walkie-talkie on her waist and whispered a few words, then walked up the two steps: "Sir, Ms. Clara has entered the elevator."
Lu Ming nodded slightly. Clara is the mother of John and Eunice. She was once the financial director of Scarlett's family business. She is an outstanding elite. Now she is his personal financial consultant, mainly looking after his own business. Investment project, that is, the joint financial director of several companies in the Queens redevelopment plan.
So, she could go directly to the fifty-eighth floor, otherwise she would need permission to enter the elevator.
"Eunice, your mother is here. I want to talk to her about something, and you guys will go listen to some music first." Lu Ming smiled at Eunice.
Eunice nodded obediently, "Okay!"
……
Clara is a graceful young woman with long light red hair. She wears a gauze shawl with a hollow pattern. She wears a light blue dress similar to a cheongsam. The slit at the knee bend reveals her slender legs with snow-skinned skin and milky white lace-up soft shoes. Her whole temperament is very noble and charming.
"General, thank you for taking the time to meet with me." Clara was very restrained. The man in front of her rescued her family from the sea of misery. Not only did they gain freedom, but working during this period of time made her feel like she was back before the war. She was so confident at that time and felt that she was embracing the whole world. This long-lost feeling came back.
Not to mention, this man is far more powerful than she originally imagined. He is only a few years older than her, but he is already a top figure in the United Kingdom. He is also the commander-in-chief of a party with heavy troops and some of the most important generals of the National Defense Forces. one.
After all, the National Defense Forces have been disbanded during peacetime. Not counting the large reserves, the current strength of the National Defense Forces is only about one million, and this man commands one-tenth of them.
Thinking about it, they are all terrifying and powerful people, but seeing him all the time makes people feel that the current situation is not real.
Over there, Lu Ming smiled and said: "You are my personal financial advisor and you can see me at any time. Otherwise, if something happens, wouldn't I be in trouble with my money bag? This is the opening statement every time. It's so polite. ."
Listening to his voice, Clara's messy thoughts were immediately swept away, and she said slightly uneasily: "No, I, I came here for Little John, you, you won't be angry, right?"
Lu Ming immediately understood, "Oh, you don't want him to become a Braun boy?"
Clara's green eyes were full of worry, "I see that his diary is full of hatred. Moreover, he wants to go wandering with his friends and vent this hatred in singing..." Only then did he realize this. Seeing something, her pretty face turned pale slightly, "However, I think that since he is still young, he shouldn't really do anything... But if this continues, I'm afraid that he will get lost and will not have a good future in the future..."
Lu Ming smiled: "It doesn't matter what you do. It's not a big deal to kill a few of my clansmen in revenge, as long as those killed are not innocent people."
Klara looked up in shock, her pretty face full of disbelief.
Lu Ming added: "But I understand what you mean. I have someone following him. He won't disappear. I'll wait until I have time to talk to him."
"Ah..." Clara's face was full of surprise. She probably didn't expect that the man in front of her would promise to talk to Little John in person. Originally, she came this time because she was afraid that Little John would disappear, but she didn't expect that the man in front of her had already sent someone to protect Little John. John, "That would be too troublesome for you! Your time is so busy, it is a national matter. I just wanted to see if I could ask you to send someone to arrest him..."
Lu Ming smiled, thought for a while and said: "I originally wanted to talk to you in a few days, but you came just in time. You are ready. When the Gill campaign is over and the SAR election begins, you will run for the state assembly and represent the Gill area. The state legislator, oh, should be called the SAR legislator."
Klara was stunned, her pretty face full of surprise, "Me?"
Lu Ming looked at his watch: "I'm going to take Eunice and the others to play. The details will be discussed with Danilova tomorrow."
"Yes, okay..." Clara agreed hurriedly.
……
On February 25, 1968, forty-one members of the Gill City Council were elected.
The majority of the MPs are naturally Sonia. In addition, the Grifenni and Onian people won a few seats. As expected, the Ged people got the seats in the two districts of Queens.
On March 5, Hines won the mayoral election with more than half of the vote.
At the same time, Hines officially announced the formation of the "New Democratic Party". Among the forty-one members, more than 20 announced to become New Democrats, seven of whom were members who broke away from the Rose Party.
In fact, during the election process, this political group supported each other, including the similar political views they expressed, which already gave Rose Party members a premonition.
However, regardless of whether they were prepared or not, this move dealt a heavy blow to the Rose Party. At least in the Gir area, the Rose Party suffered a heavy blow.
Gil City is the central city of the three Gade states, and its political significance is self-evident.
