"Otto''s back?" asked margus, bending over and taking today''s newspaper out of the hound''s mouth at his feet, wearing glasses.


    The period from 6:30 to 8:30 every morning is the easiest time for margus. There is no business that can never be handled to bother him. There is no quarrel between various departments for him to mediate, let alone face the headache diplomatic note application put forward by diplomats. He can sit in his villa yard, make a cup of flower tea, let his wife make a pancake for him, read the newspaper and interact with bick.


    Bick is his dog, an old dog, eleven years old. The life span of dogs is very short, at most 13 or 14 years. Those who live longer can''t live more than 20 years. The dog named bick has entered the life of an old dog. Its slender kiss fur has loosened, and even the teeth under its lips have begun to loosen. When he was young, he was a great boy and won great honor for margus in many hunting competitions.


    Bick is a purebred Aussel hound. It runs strong and very fast. It also has good patience and bite force. Generally, one Aussel Hound is enough to complete the task alone when dealing with small beasts under 50 pounds. Even if it is more than 50 pounds of prey, three or five oser hounds can complete the hunt. This kind of hound, especially pure blood hounds, is expensive, ranging from 500 yuan to 5000 yuan. For example, the Beagle dog named BIC raised by margus has served the margus family for at least 300 years.


    Yes, from its ancestors, its family began to serve the Magus family, and has multiplied to today, with a history of more than 300 years.


    Bick walked slowly away from margus and stopped less than ten meters away from him. He sniffed the familiar looking leather shoes with his nose and fell lazily on the lawn to bask in the sun. It knows the smell and often appears here, so it doesn''t show any aggressive behavior.


    Barr looked down at the old dog at his feet and walked towards Maggs. The weather is getting warmer and warmer. People also take off their thick coats and come out of the cold winter. Like animals, everyone is lazy. It must be the most comfortable thing if you can read a book in the sun, taste some delicious snacks, and squint your eyes to sleep in the sun when you are sleepy.


    He untied the two buttons of his clothes, sat on the chair next to Maggs, took a pancake from Maggs and bit, "he came back in the middle of the night yesterday. I asked him to have a rest and report across the street after nine o''clock."


    At this time, more than half a month has passed since Otto went to the West. He came back after dealing with the things there. It seems that all things in the West came to an end at an unknown and neglected time point, and then came to an abrupt end. After dealing with the resettlement of those new immigrants, Otto came back immediately. He couldn''t pry more useful things out of mennong''s mouth unless he forced mennong to speak by means of injury and threat.


    But in that case, even if mennong spoke, these people may not believe what he said is true, and they always have to verify it again and again. If mennon added one or two people he wanted to kill but not bloody dawn to a large number of real lists, the official would be the knife in his hand. Although this will not have any negative impact on the cabinet and the Empire - in fact, it will. After all, people will feel that public security is not as good as official propaganda when there are people killed by eating robbery or burglary.


    But neither margus nor Otto wanted to be disgusted by mennong, so they waited a little and waited patiently for mennong to take the initiative to send the whole list.


    The reason why the Empire had few clues to the bloody dawn in the past 27 years was that this organization was all neuropathy. They are almost completely different from those famous bandits or organizations in the same period. Those organizations may be for fame, wealth or want to make a career. These people have a clear purpose. Every time they hurt the nobles and plundered places, their purpose is to strengthen themselves and make themselves stronger.


    After so many repetitions, he tried to have enough power to confront a small region, so as to change the pattern of the whole empire.


    But the blood dawn is different. These people are psychopaths. Acquiring wealth is just an incidental behavior when they assassinate the nobility. They will not assassinate the nobility specifically for wealth, and some of the wealth they get will not be distributed to the poor. In fact, most of them are still in their hands. They do not assassinate nobles for fame. They are not picky about their goals, nor do they have any rules. Generally speaking, they will assassinate local nobles wherever they go.


    They did not expand their strength. At the beginning, there were almost 40 or 50 people. The ambush, that is, the last large-scale activity of bloody dawn, was 50 or 60 people, or a little more. They don''t care how much power they have in their hands. Even if they assassinate the nobles and incite the slave uprising in their territory, it seems that they did it easily, not intentionally.


    So this group of people are a group of psychopaths, not for money or name. It seems that they simply like to assassinate nobles. However, such a neurotic style made the nobles and royal families at that time helpless to them. There was no law and purpose to kill one here. They arranged traps many times. As a result, the other party had gone to the other half of the Empire.


    The only flaw they left behind was mennon.


    Mennon was an Ogden, a treacherous horse dealer active in the middle of the Empire. He had much more information and information about mennon than anyone in the bloody dawn. For example, he often buys some sick horses, and then uses some plant medicine to stimulate the activity of these sick horses to make them look very healthy, and then sells them to others to make a profit. In the past files, there were almost 70 horse trading fraud cases related to mennong.


    So when mennon took the initiative to stand on the table, the Empire was paying attention to him and his people. The Imperial Intelligence Agency believed that mennon''s men must have a lot of bloody dawn people, but it was unclear who were and who were not. Without the cooperation of mennon, those who are not must say they are not, and those who are must say they are not. When the Walter family was killed, he did not admit that he is a member of bloody dawn. It can be seen that these people are psychopaths stepping on horses.


    Originally, mags thought that since Du Lin wanted to go to the west, he would go to him and let him fight with mennong. From mags''s perspective, he could see that mennong was definitely not Du Lin''s opponent. After mennong is ousted by Du Lin, maybe mennong will become angry and give Du Lin a black post. As long as he does, margus''s plan will succeed. What people can''t imagine is that mennon himself took the initiative to cut off the relationship with the bloody dawn without Du Lin''s hands, and devoted himself to the camp of the new party, which was completely beyond mags''s expectation.


    However, it''s better for a "man of his own" to be in the West than for Du Lin to mess around in the West. Originally, he intended to use Du Lin to deal with the mennong and restrict the growth of the progressive party. Now, in turn, he wanted to use the mennong and the more pure progressive party to restrict Du Lin''s expansion.


    Of course, he didn''t think mennon could last long. In a year or two at most, he would almost be ousted by Turin. During the turmoil in the west, margus kept his eyes on the situation in the West. When the door farmers'' freedom was restricted, almost all the big capitalists did not take the initiative to help the door farmers out of the siege. They didn''t even ask whether their strong power and financial resources could really let the door farmers escape the accident.


    As the most important partner of Western capitalists, mennon''s silence reminded MARGES of Dulin. Dulin must have negotiated some terms with these people, so they chose to watch the play.


    In the current situation of mennong, if he can''t pull these capitalists back to his camp, he will soon be finished.


    Because the "Three Guarantees" policy he made also included his direct separation from bloody dawn.


    Margus considered that if he was the leader of bloody dawn, what he had to do now was to erase a person who knew most of the inside information from the world, especially when he had betrayed, let alone let him live. Magus has reason to believe that mennon did not give all the lists. He must still have a more important list in his hand, which he used as a bargaining chip to negotiate terms with the new party.


    To be honest, he''s stupid.


    Many things in Maggs''s mind were over in a few seconds. He opened the newspaper, looked at the front page headline, shook his head slightly, and then put the newspaper on the table.


    His old friend Barr took a look at the newspaper. It said that the joint construction project is expected to completely break through the mountains in the west of Otis city by the end of April, realize the complete opening to traffic from east to west, and Otis city will usher in a new round of development. There is also a subtitle at the bottom of the article. The content is that the joint construction project has won three major projects, including the construction of the Empire''s tallest building in the southern city of the Empire in cooperation with the imperial Royal Institute of engineering, and two railways with a total length of no less than 1000 kilometers.


    "I don''t like federals. They were, are and will be.", Barr threw the newspaper back on the table and looked angrily at MARGES. "You should submit a bill to prohibit federal businessmen from participating in important projects of the Empire."


    Margus chuckled, "I know you''re talking angrily. We should recognize the reality. In the past, maybe we could play our own game, but now the international relations between countries are getting closer and closer, and there are more and more cooperation. Isolation will only make us eliminated. Today is a federal businessman, tomorrow may be a businessman from other countries. These people may become a force that can''t be ignored in the Empire in the future Power. "


    "We don''t have the right to refuse, we can''t resist, so try to lead it!"
