Harry is a great aristocrat, and there are many industries in his family, but he is still a little different from the aristocrats who formed a consortium like the Kape family, because he himself is a high-level member of the new party. The old aristocrats "overthrown" by the new party do not like this young generation, and no one is willing to play the game of capital with his family. So relatively speaking, in terms of cash flow, his thickness is not as good as Kape''s family and consortium.


    As for why the aristocrats within the new party do not form a consortium... This problem is very complicated.


    So he needs the support of the northern consortium, so he needs the friendship of these capitalists.


    He has just experienced the mid-term election and spent a lot of money on it. Although there are still a lot of funds in his family''s account, these funds are needed for the turnover of the family industry. To put it simply, he didn''t have much cash in his hand now, which gave the Philistine businessman the opportunity to give him gifts.


    The annoying guy left quickly. It was not difficult for Harry. It was very easy to do. The other party wants to buy an undeveloped vacant land in Leeds, which has been vacant for several years, which is a kind of harm to the city itself. When foreign tourists came to lizhua, surrounded by beautiful high-rise buildings, suddenly there appeared a waste dump in the city, which had a negative effect on the image of the city.


    Since the original real estate developers were unwilling to develop, they changed someone to develop it. How much money did they spend to get the land at the beginning, and now just give the money back to them.


    As for whether someone''s interests will be damaged in this process, it doesn''t matter. The interests of individuals or a small group of people will never be more important than the interests of the whole city. Even if they are damaged, they should bear it bravely. This is what lizhua citizens should do.


    The door was gently closed. Harry rounded the table and lifted the suitcase. It was a little heavy. It seemed that there was a lot of money in it. He didn''t know how much money this guy gave him, but it should be no less. The cost of inviting the governor is much more than that of inviting the mayor. He smiled a little self mockingly. If it weren''t for Dooling''s federal plan and the mid-term election that he didn''t have much cash in his hand, he couldn''t let such people come to his office and send these things to him.


    This is a self degrading behavior. Even if he really wants to collect money, he will also accept those big capitalists, not such a small businessman.


    He put the box on the table with both hands, and then opened the password lock. In a flash, a golden light flashed from his face. In addition to a layer of banknotes stacked neatly like bricks, there was also a gold bar with a thick child''s arm. The golden bar lay quietly in a red flannelette, with an intoxicating luster flowing on the surface. Even Harry, who is used to seeing big numbers, was slightly distracted for a moment when facing this box of money.


    The money on paper is always just a number, far from the shock of putting it in front of us. He picked up a stack of banknotes. The smell of ink had never been so fascinating. The imperial central bank seal was still wrapped in two layers. There are two rows and five stacks on each floor, and the upper and lower floors add up to almost 200000. With this gold brick, he weighed it in his hand. It was no less than 300000, which was 500000.


    Harry suddenly smacked his tongue. He didn''t know much about the land. He only knew that when the middleman contacted him, he said "a piece of land". He didn''t know exactly where it was and how big it was. He realized that the money may not be so easy to put into his pocket. When a person is willing to use 500000 to buy an opportunity, it shows that the benefit of this opportunity is far more than 500000.


    He closed the box again, carried it into the rest room and put it in the safe. Then he asked him to press the button on the edge of the table. The Secretary quickly pushed the door in.


    "I remember there was an open space in lizhua that had not been developed for a long time, didn''t it?" he didn''t say it too specifically. It was purely a habit.


    The Secretary nodded. "There is a piece of land in the northeast corner of the intersection of No. 17 street and Aile Avenue in lizhua, which is said to be because the real estate developers can''t start construction because they haven''t raised enough funds." the Secretary quickly answered Harry''s question. The state government is built in the suburbs of lizhua, and there is really no place in the city center to accommodate the state government office building and some supporting facilities, They were placed in the suburbs.


    The Secretary paused for a moment and then said something about the land, far more than Harry knew about the land.


    At the beginning, this land was called the land king of lizhua. Lizhua is the capital of a state closest to the imperial capital. It is only 317 kilometers away from the imperial capital, which has great development potential. This land is close to the city center. The lot is very good and popular. It sold for 8.95 million at the auction. At that time, it was one of the most expensive sites in lizhua.


    Many people have high hopes for the project developed on this land, and think it is definitely a very profitable project. The real estate developers also showed their ambition. They got a very gorgeous plan to raise funds from the society for joint development, and promised that the rebate will not be less than 20% of the annual interest rate. If investors are unwilling to ask for a rebate, they will find an equivalent shop or house for investors after the end of the project period.


    Such generous promises and a visible future made many people very interested in it. In addition, their plans were so beautiful that even the city hall of lizhua took the initiative to endorse them, which caused a very sensational scene at that time - many middle-class people waved money in the hope of "taking shares". The imperial daily said "people are crazy" To describe the scene.


    However, later, due to the withdrawal of partners and some other things, the development was delayed. It has been six years now, and there has been no news at all.


    Some people say that the real estate developers have run away with money, but the official has not made a statement. The reason for not making a statement is that there is not only the money of the imperial central bank, but also part of the investment of the city hall.


    Public and private.


    After the mayor approved the land, he wanted to take this opportunity to get more "own funds" for the city hall and increase the thickness of the small Treasury. At the same time, some officials and staff also thought it was an excellent investment, so they all joined the plan. In addition, the bank also has 8 million in it - the land was mortgaged immediately after being photographed by the real estate developers. They claim that they need a lot of cash to construct as soon as possible.


    The city hall has been cheated, the banks have been cheated, a large number of middle class have been cheated, and many innocent people have suffered great loss of interests. The situation that is difficult to deal with properly has made this land even abandoned there until now.


    "You mean it''s a scam, because it involves the city hall and the imperial central bank, so no one dares to touch the land?" Harper heard the Secretary carefully tell him the inside of the land. His teeth were a little sour and he was relieved. If it''s a liar, it''s better to take back the land directly to fill the losses of the bank and the city hall, No one would think he "operated" anything. As for the lawsuit... That''s not what Harry needs to worry about. If the other party sues the state government, it''s a good thing. It shows that the other party is not a liar. At that time, pinch the other party and give them a deadline to operate the land. If not, take it back.


    If the other party is a liar, it is a happy thing.


    The secretary showed a strange expression on his face, shook his head and said: "It can''t be said to be a liar. There are three holders of the land, two of whom seem to have run away, and one lives in the city center. He has sued his partners to the lizhua City Court, saying that they violated the agreement and cheated him of all his money. He is actively contacting some people in the imperial Ministry of justice, hoping to recover his losses."


    Harry blinked. Suddenly he didn''t understand. It seemed a little troublesome, but it wasn''t a big problem.


    After leaving the state government, the seemingly unpleasant philistine businessman got into his car. After entering the urban area, he stopped in the street with the largest flow of people, found a phone and called Turin.


    "He took the things. Is there anything else I need to do?", the little fat man took out his handkerchief and wiped the sweat on his forehead. Seeing a big man like the governor for the first time made him very frightened. The reason for his fear came from that he actually obeyed Turin''s order to send money to Harry. It didn''t matter whether he could get the land or not. What matters is that Harry took the things.


    "Did you take a picture?"


    He nodded again and again, "yes, both below and above."


    After Du Lin hung up the phone, a strange smile appeared on his face. He raised his eyebrows. When the humble guy entered the state government, someone was taking pictures outside, especially the box in his hand. At a high place outside the state government, someone also took pictures, pointed a high-power lens at Harry''s office, and photographed Harry''s bribery process.


    Harry put him aside. He couldn''t forget as if nothing had happened. He wasn''t so generous.


    This is what he and Maggs discussed all night. Of course, it has nothing to do with Harry. It''s just a suggestion.


    Durin suggested that MARGES set up a new Department to supervise and supervise the officials who collected the black money of capitalists and caused losses to the Empire. With such a department, it can deter the behind the scenes transactions between officials and capitalists, and it is also a good way to restrict the penetration of capital into politics.
