Chapter 407

    Klaus had a gun in his pocket, but under the dim street lamp, he didn''t know whether the other party had a gun in his hand or whether he had pointed at him. The man stood at the edge of the direct light. The street lamp was like the most perfect camouflage, separating the two worlds, but left the guy in the shadow.


    Both of them keep their own actions. No one makes any other actions. They look at each other through the boundary of light and darkness. Time is in this second. Here, it has lost its meaning.


    After about ten seconds, or dozens of seconds, or a few minutes, Klaus raised his chin slightly. He didn''t want to show a timid expression. At this time, maintaining his courage will be of great help to what might happen next.


    "Who are you? Who sent you?" Klaus turned to the guy. He slowly bent down, put the suitcase on the ground and opened the buckle of the suitcase. He moved the suitcase in front of him, pushed it gently and fell to the ground. The suitcase was vibrated and produced some subtle changes. Under the action of the reed, the suitcase slowly opened.


    There are several small metal boxes inside. I don''t know what they contain, but the most remarkable thing is that there is some messy cash on one side. It''s all cash of 20 yuan denomination. Every bundle hasn''t even taken off the bank seal. There are ten bundles, 20000 yuan!


    "I don''t know who you are or who invited you, but I believe my life is more than money here and more than you think. Friend, give me a chance and give yourself a chance. There is also a checkbook that has been signed and the maximum limit is 2000 yuan. I won''t write off this checkbook. 100 and 220000 are yours ! ", he tried to slow down his tone so that he didn''t look threatening.


    "As long as you stand here and wait for me to go out of the alley, you can chase me again. Why don''t you give yourself a chance and give me a chance?" a bead of sweat rolled down Klaus''s sideburns and rolled down his carefully taken care of cheeks to his chin. More and more sweat accumulated along the "River" of the former, and that drop of sweat finally couldn''t bear more weight, lost its grip and fell from his chin.


    A small drop of sweat set off a small spray on the wet ground in the alley. A car passed by quickly outside the alley. The driver didn''t seem to find what happened inside.


    On one side, the window of the apartment upstairs was slammed shut, and there was an old voice in my ear, as if shouting and scolding.


    Everything is like countless quiet and boring nights, but some extraordinary things have happened today.


    "After my death, the bank will freeze my account for the first time. If there is no heir, the money will be swallowed by the bank forever, 20000 or 220000, which doesn''t need to be considered!" Klaus kindly reminded the guy who may be a killer. If he killed himself, he won''t get the 200000 in the bank.


    More and more sweat made Klaus feel uncomfortable. He wanted to tear open his collar and breathe, but he was afraid that his excessive move would cause this person''s misunderstanding. He knew that as long as he put his hand in his pocket, he had the capital to negotiate, but he couldn''t do it, even if the distance between his hand and his pocket was less than a foot.


    In the long suffering waiting, the man spoke.


    "You did what you shouldn''t do and said what you shouldn''t say. Mr. durin hopes you can remember this lesson!"


    This sentence sounds like forgiving yourself?


    As soon as the surprise on Klaus''s face appeared, there was a gunshot in his ear. Stimulated by the gunshot, his eyes blinked uncontrollably and his body shook violently. He slowly lowered his head and looked at his chest. There was a small wound on it. After several seconds, the blood spilled out bit by bit and dyed the waiter''s shirt he stole from that damn place red.


    He raised his right hand and touched the wound, and put his fingers closer to his eyes. The fresh blood was not viscous, but a little thin, like red ink. He felt that the strength in his body was quickly pulled away by some unknown great force through this small wound. His legs could no longer support his body, and he fell to the ground. Breathing becomes rapid because of fear, and a powerful force inexplicably emerges in the body.


    This power gave him an illusion that he was ok, and he could stand up, run, jump and defeat the killer. The five senses became more sensitive. He heard footsteps, stared and saw a man with a duck tongue hat. He stood beside him. From this angle, he could see a pair of cold eyes. He opened his mouth and wanted to say something. A desire to cough interrupted his impulse to speak.


    With a puff, the blood mist bloomed in the quiet alley. The old man who had been yelling closed his mouth and shook the creaking old bed. It seemed to be firm. The guy raised the gun, pointed it at his face and tightened his fingers on the trigger.


    Durin only stayed in Orlando for three days, left there and returned to Otis. There are still many things to deal with in Otis. It is difficult for him to stay outside for too long.


    When he returned to Otis, it was nine days after he left, that is, Monday.


    As soon as he woke up early in the morning, dove was ready for breakfast. He just took a bite and thought of something. He immediately asked, "how''s the new city hall built?"


    According to Du Lin''s idea and the designer from the imperial capital, the new city hall made a sketch. It looks very elegant. It has five floors and covers an area of about 1500 square meters, excluding gardens and yards. The style adopted an ancient style called "Ya". It is said that it was a great empire thousands of years ago. Later, it fell apart due to the civil war and finally came to an end.


    Generally speaking, this style is atmospheric. The six pillars at the door that need three people to hug are enough to dislocate many people''s chins. The whole building is not luxurious, but it can feel a full weight, massiness and majesty.


    It is said that Shengya claims to be the descendant of "Ya". It is not clear whether it is true, but it can''t be seen that there is any connection between "Ya" from their architectural style. It may be "shrinking"!


    If the construction period of such a building is calculated according to the world in the dream, it will take at least half a year, but it doesn''t take that long here. With the birth of AT-1 magic modified construction machinery, many quantities that need manpower, material resources and time have been greatly shortened. Take that pillar for example. It took half a month to transport it from the west, but it took less than a morning to transport it from the station to the new city hall and erect it.


    The two construction machines can pick up the columns and walk, thanks to the weapon developers. Without their upgrading, we can''t enjoy the utility brought by this kind of construction machinery.


    The whole construction period plan takes two months to complete. Up to now, there are 37 days, and there are 24 days, just two months. Except for interior decoration, the main works should have been completed.


    Sometimes Dooling also feels very magical. Maybe he is too seriously affected by dreams. He always thinks it may take a long time to do it.


    "Miss Natalie said that it would be finished in about half a month, thanks to the help of many local people." dove added some milk to Turin. For these milk, she specially asked Turin to transfer some cows from other places. Local people don''t raise cows. First, people here don''t seem to be interested in milk, mainly because there may be a lack of young people here. Secondly, the economic value of cows here is far less than that of beef cattle, so no one raises them.


    Dooling nodded. He knew it.


    To say who is the happiest in the construction of Otis City, it must be the locals. In addition to the changes of the city, they can also enjoy everything in developed cities, it also provides more job opportunities. For example, building a house, in other places, the daily salary is $1.51. Here, as long as $1.2 or even $1, someone is willing to do it. On the premise that the financial pressure is less than that in other places, it is natural to hire more workers to cooperate in the construction, and the construction period is naturally much faster.


    During this time, Garfield also complained with him. He was really busy, because he was not only one of the big landlords in Otis City, but also a friend of the mayor, so many people ordered steel from Garfield in order to get familiar. This made him miserable and happy. He contacted steel mills all day. A large number of acquisitions had just changed hands and sold them. Although the single piece profit decreased, the overall revenue kept rising.


    The city is changing day by day, and Dooling''s heart is also full of a sense of achievement.


    He once thought that being a mayor was of little significance, but watching the city glow with new vitality in his own hands was like a father looking at his children, even though he had no children.


    The application of the workers'' Union has been put on Du Lin''s desk. The first thing he saw is this document. The workers'' Union plans to buy a piece of land for the construction of the Union''s buildings, including the main building and the buildings for entertainment and meetings. The floor area is calculated as 5000 square meters. After reading it, Du Lin directly gave him a knife from the middle and wrote his own opinion. It can not exceed 2500 square meters at most. Moreover, Otis city does not sell the ownership of the land, but only the use right for a period of 30 years.


    It''s perfect. He signed his name satisfactorily, then threw the document aside and wanted to buy his own land?


    ha-ha!
