1232 Treasure

Power... is fascinating.

Ms. Tracy stood by the window holding a glass of red wine, looking out at the beautiful scenery. Her mind was full of images of Hicks voluntarily withdrawing from the campaign.

She knew better than anyone how terrifying her opponent was, but the competitor that overwhelmed her, the competitor that once made her despair, just... quit!

The moment she got the exact news, she trembled with excitement.

It was a very strange feeling, and she knew it was a climax. Although she had rarely had that kind of life experience in recent years and had no boyfriend, she was not a little girl who didn't know anything.

For a male politician, having a stable family can add a lot of points to their political profile.

But for a woman, if they want to go further in politics, they cannot have a stable family.

This seems contradictory, but in fact it is not contradictory at all and is very realistic.

The reason why people use family to restrain male politicians is that men are inherently better in ambition and ability. In order to prevent them from being "derailed", there must be solid rules to regulate their behavior.

Women are different. Women's gender itself will give them many different concerns from male politicians.

When they all get a little closer to certain people, various rumors will inevitably happen, which cannot be stopped.

Family will become a drag on female politicians, and other male politicians will also try to avoid too much contact with female politicians with families. They do not want to hear any rumors related to them in society.

Think about it, policy decisions are always made after get off work. If you want to join in, you must give up something...

Ms. Tracy does not have a family, but this does not mean that she cannot have a life, and because she does not have a family, she can have a relationship with any law-abiding federal citizen. That is her freedom.

"I have inquired that Hicks' withdrawal may be related to the tax case, and he was involved..."

Ms. Tracy's father was sitting on the sofa, talking about some news of his own. He was a mayor and had his own circle, so he could also get some news.

In addition, he also has a brother who is a patriarch. This family may not have great power, but their connections are very wide.

Ms. Tracy nodded, "I know, he has never disappointed anyone."

However, Ms. Tracey’s father still had some confusion. “You don’t understand, dear, the tax bureau is a vertical agency. They are not controlled by local governments. In other words, only the federal tax bureau or even the presidential cabinet can mobilize them!"

"Lin Qi invested two sums of money in you, and now he has sold you such a big favor..." His expression was a little solemn, "I think this will become a trouble in the future."

"You owe him too much, and we don't know what he wants..."

Ms. Tracy turned around and walked back into the room. She took a sip of the wine in the glass gracefully, then put the glass back on the table and said jokingly, "He will definitely not want me..."

Her father still looked at her seriously and was not amused by her cold joke.

She sighed and comforted, "Don't worry too much, he must be for that girl Catherine."

"She has already been elected as a city councillor. If nothing else happens, she will be able to run for mayor in four years. If I haven't left that position by then, I will definitely have to pay some price!"

Ms. Tracy saw the problem clearly. Four years later, Catherine was twenty-nine, just the right age.

The mayor, who is almost thirty years old, meets people's expectations for female politicians. She is young, beautiful, and capable. With four years of political experience, who would hate her?

No, no one will!

But for insurance purposes, Ms. Tracey is a backup plan.

Sometimes Ms. Tracy would be very jealous of Catherine. She knew she shouldn't have such emotions, but she was just jealous.

She always felt that she was lucky. Her father was a successful politician and a city leader. Her father had the loudest voice within the city.

Her uncle is a patriarch, and within the scope of one state or even two states, her uncle is the leader of religious beliefs!

But now compared with Catherine, she is not so proud.

"There is still one month left, and we have no opponents. Even if someone wants to participate at this time, it is too late." Ms. Tracy seemed to be admiring the gemstone ring on her finger, constantly adjusting her hands. Posture and viewing angle.

That coin was worth hundreds of thousands, and the money was not a heavy burden to her. All the money spent on the campaign came from those supporters.

Politicians rarely spend their own money when participating in elections because they do not need to bear these costs at all, and at the same time they must send out enough friendly signals.

Letting capitalists donate to them is in itself a friendly signal. Only when capitalists have reached a "deal" with these campaigners are they true allies!

Those people gave money, and after the politicians won the election, they had to return policies and so on.

She raised her head and looked at her father, "I will come to your place next week to give a lecture. I hope we can be on stage together and people will be interested in us appearing at the same time..."

The father-daughter partnership, especially the daughter's achievements surpassing her father's, is also a scene that people in the Federation like to see.

If one's own children were never as good as themselves, human society would have been destroyed long ago.

On the contrary, when people find that their children's achievements surpass their own, people will only be happy!

The situation in the entire state's election suddenly became clear because Hicks withdrew at the last critical moment.

With the possible changes in some governor candidates, some industries in various regions are also making corresponding adjustments.

The replacement of a governor is not a simple matter. For example, if the new governor of an industrial state is a person who advocates environmental protection, this will definitely be a fatal blow to the industrial enterprises in the entire state.

Just when people were busy working for money, someone asked for help and hoped to have a chat with Lynch.

Mr. Wycliffe.

Lynch was not too impressed by this person.

Mr. Patu said that he would definitely recover some losses from himself, but so far he has done nothing, which made Lynch think that he may not be as tough as Mr. Patu thought.

This is not surprising. Not everyone can be tough when facing Lynch. Private armed forces and huge amounts of capital are the best and most effective ways for him to fight against his enemies and protect himself.

If people can't defeat Blackstone Security's weapons and destroy the capital flow and various capital methods behind Blackstone Capital, they won't be able to give Lynch any big trouble, let alone extract money from him.

After thinking twice, Lin Qi still planned to meet this person.

The Security Committee has begun to monitor Mr. Wycliffe within the security committee, so the meeting itself is safe and takes place in his ward.

As soon as he entered the ward, Lynch took stock of the environment here, "I didn't expect that the medical supporting services are so complete now. Do they have independent villas?"

“Sometimes I don’t really like being in a crowd with a lot of people, especially with medical issues.”

Mr. Wycliffe smiled and sat up from the bed. He paused for a few seconds before standing up with the help of others. Just doing this made him breathless.

He pressed his hand on his chest, with a painful expression on his face. Even if he took medicine for heart failure, it would have a very limited effect on the failure process.

There was a distance of about ten meters between him and Lin Qi. Lin Qi saw the pain on his face, but he did not move and stood far away.

Mr. Wycliffe almost sat back down after standing up. His legs were weak and trembling, and the doctor had recently told him that his kidneys were also beginning to fail, from various causes.

Probably "getting older" is more common, and there may be other triggers, but whether he knows it or not, it doesn't make much sense anymore.

He rested for a while, and then with the help of people around him, he walked to Lin Qi.

It took several minutes to reach a distance of more than ten meters. With a friendly smile on his face, Lynch raised his hand and shook hands with Mr. Wycliffe, "Nice to meet you, Mr. Wycliffe. I heard you wanted to see me?"

He let go of his hand and walked to another door. Through the window, he saw a living room over there. He opened the door directly and walked over.

Standing in the living room, he looked at Mr. Wycliffe in the ward, "I don't like the smell of disinfectant that much. Although it can soothe people's spirits, let's talk about it here, shall we?"

He was tormenting Mr. Wycliffe, and the latter knew this very well, but he had no choice. He now wanted to ask Lynch, and he also knew that Scarface accidentally killed Blackstone Security in order to capture Charlie (sister). employee.

He gritted his teeth and his lips turned blue. A nurse quickly held a small oxygen tube and put on an oxygen mask on him.

In this way, he got a little better, and then slowly, with help, he came to another room.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Lynch, my current situation..." He smiled bitterly and spread his hands, "You must have noticed it. If there is anything rude, I apologize to you!"

Lynch nodded, "I sympathize with your situation, but I can't do anything for you. After all, I'm not a doctor."

Mr. Wycliffe sighed, "I understand, I invite you here because I want to discuss a business deal with you."

"To be honest, I'm very short of money recently. After the silver case, most of my funds were..."

"Now my illness requires a lot of money to support me. After much thought, you may be the only one who can help me!"

He acted very sincerely, had no hidden thoughts, and could not hide anything.

Lynch wanted to find out why he needed money. It might be a matter of making a phone call and waiting for a short time. It was better to say it directly, at least to show his sincerity.

Lynch raised his eyebrows, "I'm not sure we can cooperate, at least I haven't found it."

Mr. Wycliffe rested for a while before saying, "Charlie's brother and sister's treasure..."
