Chapter 340(1/2)
A combination of kindness and power
[Big news, Congresswoman Anna Wang drank too much yesterday and accidentally drowned in the bathroom of her home.]
[Sad, another major drinking incident, drinking is harmful to the body, please keep this in mind.]
【When can alcohol be banned? Alcohol is a waste of food and has no effect.】
With Li Wen's arrangement, Wang Anna died that night, and she died in the bathtub of her home.
The news broke the next day, but the trend of the whole incident was taken in the direction of prohibition of drinking. This is a very rhythmic topic.
Because the issue of drinking and prohibition will definitely cause a lot of quarrels among the people of Zion.
The root cause of this matter, that is, the death of Senator Wang Anna in the bathtub, has almost been determined.
No one investigated whether she really died in the bathtub or how she died in the bathtub. Anyway, she was in the bathtub. It was her own problem.
What needs to be discussed now is drinking…
The direction of public opinion in the entire society is skewed, and even if there are some strange voices, they will soon be submerged in the mainstream melody.
Yes, isn't it normal to get drunk and drown in the bathtub at home? It's too normal.
But when the Council of Zion met again the next day, the situation was different.
When Xu Le arrived, other congressmen were already there.
When Xu Le walked to his seat, the conference hall where there was some discussion suddenly fell silent.
The atmosphere was extremely depressing, and the faces of several congressmen were almost gloomy.
Those newspapers about the death of Congressman Wang Anna were placed on Xu Le's desk. Needless to say, it goes without saying that some people put them here deliberately.
Xu Le handed his coat to Alley, and Alley stepped aside sensibly.
When all the guards left and only the congressmen were left, Xu Le slowly picked up the newspaper on the table.
"Hey, Representative Wang Anna drowned after drinking. It's such a pity. I originally wanted to continue discussing with her. It doesn't matter if the matter can't be discussed once. If we discuss it a few more times, there should be a mature result..."
Xu Le's expression was quite sincere, but in the eyes of other congressmen, his appearance was just an exaggeration of acting.
Can crocodile tears have good intentions?
After Xu Le sat down, he suddenly found that no one else answered his words, and no one even criticized him.
Suddenly he felt something was not right, so he woke up and his thoughts were not clear yet. At this time, he turned on the ethereal state, and he finally realized some things.
"Hey, you don't think I did it, do you?"
"Humph." One person snorted coldly, without comment.
"What are you humiliating? One person does the work and the other takes responsibility. But if you didn't do it, you didn't do it. Don't accuse me wrongly!"
"Vested beneficiaries conclude that Congresswoman Anna Wang is dead, who is the biggest beneficiary? Everyone understands."
When Xu Le heard this sentence "Everyone understands it", he wanted to punch the opponent twice. He was annoyed by hearing this sentence in his previous life.
"I am a vested person. No matter whether Wang Anna dies or not, I will implement the original plan and policy. Now that it is certain that this matter will be implemented, do I need to kill him?"
Xu Le was so aggressive that these people immediately became weaker.
They did not refute Xu Le, but their eyes still looked a little angry.
Xu Le wanted to say something more, but soon, he seemed to have thought of something, and his eyes flickered slightly.
Seeing that Xu Le didn't speak, the atmosphere in the entire conference room became solemn again.
And this time it's not just about the atmosphere.
But the whole conference room is really generating pressure, which comes from the pressure on Xu Le.
Invisible black energy began to fill the conference room. This black energy was naturally emitted by Xu Le.
He restrained himself before, but now he no longer restrains himself.
Xu Le knocked on the table regularly, making a "ta-da-da" sound.
Others didn't dare to take a breath, and some people didn't even drink water when they were thirsty.
Everyone's eyes were focused on Xu Le.
They are all waiting for what Xu Le will say next and what he will do...
After Xu Le pondered for a long time, he suddenly said:
"Let the matter of Anna Wang come to an end. The development of Zion cannot stop at the death of a congressman. It has no meaning.
Okay, let’s take the exam now to discuss the topic that we didn’t finish last night, what Zion should look like in the future!”
Xu Le's attitude suddenly changed from defending himself just now to being completely indifferent and ignoring Wang Anna's death.
Some of these changes are a bit mind-boggling.
"Then the death of Representative Wang Anna...shouldn't we just deal with it?"
"I will ask Alley to prepare some wreaths to send over later. As members of parliament, we should focus on more important things."
Seeing Xu Le's attitude, the congressman stopped talking.
The meeting lasted for a long time. Although it could not be said that it was Xu Le's speech, it was almost the same in many cases.
Regarding the recruitment of ancient gods, after a series of normal political review processes, it has been put on the agenda and will be implemented next Monday, which is two days later.
This is an idea that seems crazy to many people, and many people are still firmly opposed to it at this point.
Of course, I just object in my heart, I would never say this verbally.
Because no one wants to be the next Anna Wang.
However, there are also some people who are wavering. Based on the convenience Xu Le has provided for the entire Zion through his previous work, every step of his plan will bring obvious benefits to Zion.
Starting with the Anima Shroud, it has completely changed the pattern of the entire Zion Law Enforcement defense system in terms of Anima.
Then there is the Guangming Soap Factory project that many people are not optimistic about, which is the melting pot and the core of Guyinduo Technology.
The birth of soap has indeed changed the entire Zion, and even has the potential to change the world.
Then there is the current recruitment plan for ancient gods...
Xu Le's plan is indeed a bit crazy, but the final result is also huge.
So can they stand with Xu Le for once?
If the plan succeeds, they will also become participants in an epic event and great men remembered by history.
If it fails, it will be even simpler. The culprit is Xu Le, and they were all forced...
With such emotions, the atmosphere of the entire meeting quietly changed.
…
After the meeting, Xu Le immediately asked Alley to drive to the Zion Progressives Building.
After arriving here, Xu Le went straight to Li Wen's office.
As soon as he entered the door, Xu Le saw Li Wen arranging the work of Secretary Liu and several building materials personnel, probably preparing for the Sky City project.
After Li Wen saw Xu Le arriving, he immediately waved to the others.
"Okay, everyone goes back and does their own thing. Don't worry about money. If you really don't have it, use energy to exchange it. They are willing to accept the moon stone. How can you refuse the soap?"
After arranging his subordinates, Secretary Liu quietly closed the door, allowing Li Wen and Xu Le to enter the "two-person world" again.
"I thought you would come over in the morning. It seems that the meeting went well?"
"Well, it went quite smoothly." After seeing Li Wen, Xu Le unexpectedly calmed down.
Especially the other party's calm demeanor made Xu Le feel that there seemed to be no need to continue questioning some things.
"As long as it goes well."
"Did Uncle Li do this?"
"Are you talking about Anna Wang?" Li Wen opened the door, took a pack of cigarettes from the pocket of Secretary Liu who was standing at the door, and walked back.
Li Wen put the cigarette to his nose and said "Hmm~", as if he suddenly remembered something, he said to Xu Le:
"It's not that I don't have money to buy cigarettes, it's just that I quit smoking recently. Well, if it's not your own cigarette, it doesn't count as smoking."
"It's well-founded and convincing." Xu Le nodded.
"Where were we talking about just now?"
"The matter about Anna Wang."
"Oh, by the way, I did kill that woman Anna Wang."
Xu Le frowned slightly. In his impression, Li Wen was a person who relatively abided by the rules. He abided by the rules and was one of the sources of order in Zion.
Even if Lao Moen doesn't follow the rules, let alone Li Wen.
"She is still a member of the House of Representatives. Isn't it inappropriate to do this?
She just holds an objection. If I use the policy proposals of the new members, she will have no way to stop it. This matter is settled."
