Louis has a secret that no one knows.


    His father was not the honest cobbler, but the master of the city, the mayor of nano lindes.


    His mother, once the mistress of the mayor, was unable to marry the mayor because of pregnancy, so she chose a cobbler with a good family and honest people as her future life partner. The reason why he was able to find out was that when he was seven years old, he secretly followed his mother and played a game of police catching thieves that only one person knew. He watched his mother enter a luxurious villa and didn''t come out for a long time.


    He waited at the door for a long time. It was not that he didn''t want to go home, but that he forgot his way home.


    Then he saw his mother come out of the villa holding a man''s arm, and both saw him. He remembered the man pointing at him and asking whose child it was.


    His mother smiled and told the man that this is your child.


    He was an illegitimate son. For a long time, he felt that it was a humiliation to him and hated his mother and his father who had only met once. Many times he wanted to tell his current father about it, but he kept the secret in his heart when he thought that the family might be broken and that he always regarded him as his only father might collapse.


    Until he came of age.


    The world of adults and the world of children seem to be different. Children always have a very clear view of right and wrong. This is good and that is bad. They will not easily change their original intention to distinguish right from wrong because of anyone''s persuasion or the temptation of candy. But adults are different. Adults are subject to too many temptations or coercion. They are always bowing to the constant compromise of fate. They are obviously right and will violate their conscience and say that it is wrong just to prevent themselves from being hurt.


    When his father gave him a set of tool knives for making leather goods, he realized that this might not be the way he wanted to go. He doesn''t want to waste his life in a narrow room with those smelling leather. He doesn''t want to be a cobbler, hold up the smelly feet of those high figures, and carefully measure the data for them. He doesn''t want to be the cobbler who sells a lot of leather goods but doesn''t want to wear them. Even if the cobbler can make a lot of money, it''s still someone''s dream.


    So he found his biological father and hoped that the other party could arrange a decent job for him. The man didn''t promise him immediately, but let him shout "Papa", which was what his father meant, but it was more colloquial.


    After that, he got the first pot of gold in his life, 1000 yuan, and a promising job - the boss of a company.


    He used 1000 yuan to build a garbage station according to his biological father''s requirements, then bought some manual garbage trucks, and got a community garbage recycling project in an unimaginable way. He once thought that his biological father was humiliating him. He didn''t understand that this was life until the first month was over.


    Garbage seems to be very insignificant. Indeed, the garbage generated in the lower urban area will always be garbage. But in Shangcheng District, especially in some communities where upper class people live, garbage is a treasure. The rich and their women don''t care if their clothes are worn several times and damaged. They will be thrown into the dustbin as soon as the time comes.


    These clothes worth hundreds of dollars some time ago have become garbage. In addition to garbage, there are some "worthless" trinkets or furniture. He only needs to transport these things to the recycling bin and simply deal with them. He can sell them to ordinary people at a relatively high price. Even some middle classes have become his regular customers. They buy these luxuries at a low price, which is enough to set off their wealth and dignity. This is a very cost-effective deal for everyone.


    His garbage station business grew bigger and bigger. Finally, he eliminated all manual garbage trucks, replaced them with better trucks, and expanded his business to the whole upper urban area. No one knows his relationship with the mayor, only their "family".


    He once thought that he might grow up in these garbage dumps all his life. Occasionally, he would help his biological father, the great mayor, monitor some big people, or look for something from their garbage. Until some time ago, his father gave him a sum of money to buy some very expensive and heavy machines and ordered a lot of materials.


    So he had such a factory, a accessories factory that produced "money".


    Everything he produces here will be sold to another person, who used to be the mayor''s secretary and was later dismissed for making a mistake. Just as many people did not know that Louis was the mayor''s son, these people did not know that the Secretary and the mayor still maintained very close contact. He was dismissed and just played for others. He helped the mayor deal with some things that were not from an official point of view.


    Nano lindes is a mixture of good and bad people. Some things are really inconvenient for the official to do. For example, some people did not abide by the rules of the game in this city. They crossed the line, but left no obvious handle. You know they deserve to die, but you just can''t do it.


    At this time, the role of the secretary is reflected. He can do it, because he is a mean man, and even the generous mayor can''t tolerate him. The dispute between him and those people is just the talk of most ordinary people after dinner. It is as interesting as dog biting dog.


    This is the mayor''s twenty-two years of iron rule in nano lindes. He said that he would not go anywhere in his life. Even if he retired, he would retire in nano lindes. These words made many people become his supporters and felt that this is a very, very rare good mayor.


    The former Secretary, who looked very polite with glasses, walked into the factory through the small door. He glanced at the baskets of assembled tokens stacked on one side, took out his book and recorded it.


    "Don''t you trust me?", Louis is very unhappy every time he sees this guy record everything he sees here with his notebook and notes, which makes him feel like a thief and still in his own factory!


    The former Secretary smiled and put away his notebook and pen, "I can''t talk about it!". In fact, Louis was right. The former secretary was really worried about him. The mayor didn''t say what relationship Louis had with him, but with the tacit understanding that the former secretary had been helping the mayor over the years, he had guessed what kind of involvement this bastard had with the mayor. It''s natural that he doesn''t like this boy. In addition to relying on the mayor''s face to contract the garbage recycling in the upper urban area and becoming a little famous, he has no ambition at all.


    If someone else had such a good platform, it might have developed better. And this guy, who knows to eat, drink and play all day and wait to die, how can he look up to such a guy?


    Garbage is always garbage. It won''t be garbage any more because it can sell for money.


    "I''m going to take this batch of goods away. You can arrange someone to load it. In addition, after you finish what you have, stop and visit our friends to see how they are." the former Secretary ordered, went to the edge of the assembly line, picked up a polished chip and rubbed it carefully.


    There is a layer of silver on the surface of these tokens. They spent a lot of brains for these materials. The large denomination tokens used in Otis have unique features. For example, five hundred tokens feel like silver, and one thousand tokens feel like gold. In order to make it difficult to distinguish the imitation, they finally adopted a stupid method, that is, copper wrapping.


    They Hammered Silver and gold into a piece as light as cloth, wrapped it in a layer of copper, and then overcame many difficulties. It took them three days to solve the problem of making large denomination tokens.


    These things... Are all money!


    A glimmer of intoxication flashed in the eyes of the former Secretary, who soon woke up. If according to the mayor''s design, even if nano lindes is declining, their benefits will not be much shaken. Every day a steady stream of cash flows into their pockets from Otis. In the past, because many interests were involved, the mayor did not intend to leave here, but watching nano lindes on the road of decline, the mayor suddenly raised his mind to run for governor.


    Running for governor needs money. Only a lot of money can buy off key important people, enable those members of the state legislature to cast their precious votes, and make more publicity posters and paste them all over the streets. Only after they have a lot of money can they attract people from all aspects of society with money and tick the option belonging to the mayor in the next election year.


    It''s good to collect more funds for yourself and attack the opponent who has damaged the mayor''s business for 22 years.


    After the former secretary left with all the saved tokens, Louis put on his coat. He didn''t like the former Secretary, but he knew that this man represented his own father. He had to pay a return visit to those who used fake tokens to see if there was anything wrong.


    In the evening, he found a telephone booth in a cold sweat and called the former secretary.


    "The Koster family are missing. Some people say that they have been connected to a car to Otis, but they haven''t come back yet. He hasn''t called his company, will he..."
