At night, the mayor had just finished his party. He sat in the car slightly drunk and looked at the colorful city. He didn't have as ambitious and heroic as described in the novel. He didn't have much ideas at all.

He just thought it was a trouble, a big trouble.

At this time, the sky was completely dark, just like the current situation of the city, shrouded in despair.

Many times, people think that mayors will be better than some State Councillors or city councillors. At least they have actual power, rather than collective power through collective voting.

However, only they know that being a mayor is of course happy when the wind is smooth, but in this case, even if a mayor has great skills, it is difficult to do well.

Some things cannot be changed by manpower, just like a declining economy.

Every day he looked at the rising unemployment rate, at the vagrants wandering around the street because they couldn't find a job, and at the growing gap, he felt a deep sense of powerlessness and physical and mental fatigue.

The car stopped slowly. He felt a slight nausea at the moment of stopping. He patted his cheek and got out of the car.

Refusing the driver's help, he returned home and sat down on the sofa with a heavy sigh of relief.

The maid at home brought iced water. He took a sip, dispelled the slight drunkenness in his body, and casually asked, "is Ferrar back?"

Ferral and other aides live in the same community as the mayor, even in the house next to the mayor. At any time, as long as the mayor needs, they can come to serve the mayor at the first time.

The servant nodded. "I saw Mr. Ferrar's car coming back after seven."

"Let him come. I'll wait for him in the study."

The mayor drank the remaining half cup of ice water, and the whole person was refreshed. He stood up with his body and walked into the study tired.

He sat in his chair waiting for Ferrar's arrival. At the same time, he also thought about things. He was in a trance. When he woke up again, Ferrar had stood in front of him.

"When did you come?" he took out his handkerchief and wiped the corners of his eyes. He was not sure whether he had eye excrement. He had to ensure his dignity.

Ferral waited for the mayor to tidy up his appearance before he looked up and replied, "I've been here for a while. I saw you resting just now, so I didn't bother you."

The mayor smiled reluctantly, and then sighed, "I met Neo at night. His attitude is very ambiguous."

Recently, there was a rumor in Saibin that Mr. Neo, President of riston, was actively contacting the Conservatives. On some private occasions, he affirmed some policies of the Conservatives in recent years and believed that these policies made Bayer Federation ahead of other countries.

In this country, everything can be confused, gender, loyalty, adultery, love and hate, but not political position.

Neo can tell others that he broke up with the mayor and show his determination to still adhere to the position of the progressive party. Then this is the problem between him and the mayor.

But his current argument began to change in principle. The mayor must find out whether he was trying to put pressure on himself or whether he really had other ideas.

However, it is a pity that he did not try out. Neo has always avoided this problem. In fact, this also gives the mayor a preliminary judgment. He is still choosing. At the same time, he also hopes that the two parties can give him some chips that make him inclined.

Hateful businessman, hateful capitalist!

There are tens of thousands of people working for them directly or indirectly around ristoian. Once ristoian announces to leave Sabin city and the state and move to the territory of the conservative party, it will be the biggest defeat of the mayor during his administration of Sabin city!

What's more terrible is that under such circumstances, if even 10000 or 20000 unemployed people are added at once, the whole Saibin city will fall into hell in an instant.

In addition to the recent rumors deliberately released by Mourinho, everyone will blame the mayor for forcing Neo away, resulting in everyone losing their jobs and lives.

The angry people were enough to cut off his political career. Neo made up his mind to force the mayor to bow his head, but the president of Neo ignored another problem.

The fall of Henghui is not what ristoan alone can do. Many people have worked together, including some economies with the same size as ristoan. Why are these people willing to let the fattest part be swallowed by ristoan group?

Even if the mayor agrees, mayors, congressmen and even governors in other regions will not agree with him to do so, which leads to a deadlock.

So all this really can't be changed?

In fact, Neo must also know these things. His purpose is to let the mayor strive for the greatest benefits for him and try his best to serve him, but it is also impossible. If an excellent politician is completely reduced to a capitalist's thug, it can only show that the politician is not good enough, At the same time, his political career is almost over.

This is a dilemma, which has always been a headache for the mayor.

When he talked about this topic, he didn't expect ferral to come up with a solution immediately. This didn't happen today. He just mentioned it casually, just like a stuffy person has such a short desire to talk. Just finish it.

The topic was put on hold for a while, and he mentioned another thing about Ferrar, "what's the situation with Lynch today?"

There were some changes on Ferrar's face. He nodded and described the scene at that time, which had moved the mayor. While calculating by himself, he asked, "do you say how many people Lynch needs to hire to serve him if all this becomes a fixed model?"

He added, fearing that Ferrar might misunderstand, "I am if his career is spread throughout the state!"

Ferral frowned and calculated for a while. He was not sure. "Today, he hired more than 40 salespeople and several accountants. If you count the temporary workers who helped him arrange the site and the people over the warehouse, he will provide at least 200 to 300 jobs in a city."

"All the cities in the state add up..." some surprised expressions appeared on Ferrar's face, "at least 5000 jobs!"

Talking about 5000 jobs in a state with a population of millions is a bit off the table, but the mayor still attaches great importance to these jobs because he knows Lynch's plan is not as many as it is now.

He began to calculate that according to Lynch, the club he established could also provide a lot of jobs. Coupled with some of his other ideas, the mayor was unconsciously surprised.

If Lynch's words can be realized, he can at least provide no less than 10000 jobs for the whole state and no less than 4000 jobs for Saibin city.

If the mayor can take a look at the hundreds of jobs at most, if the 4000 jobs are well arranged, they can take care of at least 4000 families, which directly affects the lives of about 15000 people and indirectly affects the lives of about 10000 people.

Just a Lynch can affect the lives of almost 30000 people. This is when he is not very prominent. What if he is given a chance to take off?

The mayor couldn't help thinking. At present, there is a consensus within the progressive party. Let alone talk about economic development, we should first solve the people's living problems. If we don't solve these problems, the beautiful federal finance will be in danger of collapse in an instant.

At that time, once the decline can not be recovered, there may be a farce of local financial bankruptcy.

At this time, these capitalists become more and more important. It is difficult for politicians to provide direct jobs for the people, but capitalists may.

They don't need to raise everyone for nothing. As long as ordinary people can stick to it, the system can operate normally and survive this period of time, everything will eventually get better.

Thinking of this, the mayor has made a decision.

The meeting with Neo at night made him realize that this man was unreliable, and riston was unreliable, even if he compromised.

Today, Neo forced him to bow his head for the ristoan group. Even if he did bow his head, the two sides buried an irreconcilable hatred between each other.

Now the mayor doesn't attack. He asks for each other, but once he has the ability to turn over, he will make Neo and riston pay the price.

Neo, can he not know this?

No, he knows very well, but he still does, which also means that the compromise between the two sides will not last long, and then there will be another confrontation with another thing as the fuse.

"Help me arrange it. I want to meet Lynch." after making a decision, the mayor directly talked about his ideas. Maybe Lynch can't change the current situation, but he can provide some other ideas.

Looking at Lynch's industry, we can see that this is a young man with great ideas. If he can provide some ways to survive this difficult time, the mayor can not only not bow his head, but may also have the opportunity to take out his hand to slap Neo.

As a person familiar with Lynch, ferral is obviously a good middleman. The mayor and Lynch not only know each other, but also have a meal, but everyone's "understanding" is only superficial. If you want to talk deep and talk about something more core, you must have a reliable middleman as a bridge.

Suddenly he felt that it was a good choice to arrange Ferrar to contact Lynch, which at least gave him another way and a chance.

His mood suddenly improved, the whole person relaxed a little, and began to look forward to the meeting.
