Chapter 459: Senator Family (please vote for the big chapter and happy National Day)
"Mr. Genos, it is said that you are preparing a proposal called the Pension Expansion Act?"
The beautifully dressed host had an impeccable smile on his face, put his hands in front of him, and looked at the interviewee not far in front of him.
It was a middle-aged man with neat clothes, shiny black hair, and a smile. He sat on the sofa opposite the host and spoke softly,
"Yes, we all know that prices are getting higher and higher, especially medical expenses. However, the annual pension increase of the Social Insurance Group is adjusted according to the 'Consumer Price Index' issued by the Federal Social Security Administration. Increased."
The middle-aged man smiled and said,
“This ‘Consumer Price Index’ is an index that measures the price changes of all consumer goods and services across the federation. It reflects the living consumption level of the entire federation, but it is actually not accurate when it comes to the living consumption level of the elderly.
"According to my statistical data, in recent years, the elderly's expenditure on medical care has been much greater than that of other age groups. Therefore, I believe that the reference for the elderly's pension should be changed from the 'National Consumer Price Index' to It will become the 'Consumer Price Index for the Elderly' to provide better pension security for the elderly."
At this point, the man paused and said, "Limen City is a famous longevity city in the entire federation. A better pension bill can also serve the citizens of Limen City more conveniently."
······
"Bah," under the huge TV screen, a dirty young man looked up at the glamorous interview on the TV screen and spat,
"It's true that we don't need to raise pensions, and raising pensions doesn't require us to pay more."
He lit a cigarette and squeezed the beer can in his hand. "The pensions will eventually be raised so much that they won't fall on the elderly. They will be eaten up by the medical consortium. If he has the ability, he can legislate to limit medical expenses."
He stood on tiptoe and threw the can in his hand at the TV screen in the sky, "Mader, you bastard."
The empty can drew an arc from the air, crossed Genos's smiling cheek on the TV, and fell into the dark sidewalk below the shining TV screen.
"Who is that? What are you doing there?"
A security guard who was patrolling nearby spotted the young man throwing the can, pulled out a rubber roller and walked towards him.
"What bad luck."
The young man saw the security guard running over, spat, and limped away into the night.
"That person looks familiar. Is he your former colleague from the construction company?"
Two brightly dressed girls walked under the light and looked at the young man who limped away.
"Seems to be."
The other girl took a sip of the coffee she was holding.
"I remember that he used to be quite handsome and his words were very profound. How did he become like this?"
The girl who asked the first question said softly.
"I was hit by a car when I was out in the field. The perpetrator escaped and broke a leg. My medical insurance was not enough. All my savings were spent on medical treatment."
The girl drinking coffee said slowly, "Because he had no money, he was kicked out of the hospital. He was absent from work for a long time because of his illness. He was legally dismissed from the company and lost his source of income. I heard that his leg was not cured in the end, nor Money in exchange for mechanical prosthetics.”
"well,"
The girl who asked the question sighed, "Life is unpredictable."
"really."
The girl drinking coffee also sighed, and the two of them slowly walked towards the shopping mall in front.
The cold wind blew the cans that fell on the ground, making a hoarse and harsh chant of "dong dong dong".
Click——
A wandering old man picked up the cans on the ground, carried a dirty rag bag, and staggered into the darkness.
A thin figure slowly walked out of the dark night, the dim light shone on him, and the dark night faded away from him, revealing his resolute and cold face.
He Ao withdrew his gaze from the homeless old man and looked at the bright and beautiful studio on the screen above his head.
The guests in the studio are dressed in neat and expensive clothes, with confident smiles on their faces.
The medical market in Limen City is completely monopolized by Qunxing Group.
Although the medical monopoly alliance will raise prices as a whole, medical prices in areas monopolized by a single consortium are still higher than in cities with competition from other consortiums.
Of course, this high price will not appear directly in the form of a clear price, but will be broken into various small 'services' and 'materials' in the bill.
Due to the high cost of travel between major fortress cities - including time cost, money cost, and risk expectations that may be encountered during travel - under the constraints of these costs, many people even know the medical prices in other cities. It is cheap and it is not easy to go to other cities for medical treatment.
What's more, because of Qunxing Pharmaceutical's monopoly on medical care, many companies and even individuals in Limen City purchase medical insurance from Qunxing Pharmaceutical's insurance company.
The reimbursement standards of these medical insurances in other places either do not pay or the reimbursement ratio is very low, which further hinders patients from seeking medical treatment in other places.
Of course, Qunxing Medical claims on its official website that it is fair and just, and all medical prices are open and transparent.
But in different places, it is reasonable for some cheap materials and services to be no longer available.
The middle-aged man on TV is still talking.
He Ao lowered his head and walked towards the busy street ahead.
Newkel Street is the most prosperous neighborhood in Limen City. Although it is not as good as Eighth Avenue in Chenxi City, or even some particularly prosperous large shopping malls in Chenxi City, it does gather the most people in Limen City. The entire street It's all a prosperous scene.
Similarly, this is also the commercial center of the entire Limen City. The most luxurious commercial office buildings in Limen City are basically located in the Newkel neighborhood.
These office buildings are all tall and luxurious. Standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows of the office buildings, you can not only overlook the bright lights of Newkle Street, but also the vast and silent wilderness.
Among these office buildings, Nukel Gold Office Building is the most luxurious.
He Ao's destination this time, Romek's construction company headquarters, is in this office building.
In the early morning, the office building is full of people rushing to work.
Holding bread and milk in their mouths, they hurriedly opened the door and walked into the building.
He Ao also stopped in front of the door. He opened his bracelet and showed his resume to the security guard.
"Come for an interview?"
The security guard glanced at him and opened the door.
He Ao walked in smoothly.
There was already a long queue in front of the elevator. These young or middle-aged office workers were crowded at the entrance of the elevator. Most of them had a quick bite of breakfast and then hurriedly squeezed into the elevator.
Pate's original company was also in this office building, and he had worked in this office building for many years.
The vast majority of office workers working here do not receive high wages.
They sit in a luxurious office rented by their boss, wearing neat clothes, but receiving a meager salary.
They make up this gorgeous prosperity, but this prosperity does not belong to them.
He Ao bought a cup of coffee from the coffee shop on the first floor and stood quietly on the edge. He waited for all the people at work to get on the elevator before walking to the front of the elevator.
It was past nine o'clock, and the lobby on the first floor, which was noisy just now, suddenly became quiet.
The entire hall was empty, with only a few security guards walking back and forth.
He Ao walked to the elevator, turned on the elevator, and then pressed the button for the 57th floor. This is the sub-top floor of the entire building and the highest floor that the elevator can reach.

"Do you think my swimsuit looks good?"
The blonde girl spun around in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, showing off her light blue lace suspender swimsuit.
This is the 58th floor of the Nucor Golden Office Building, the top floor of the entire office building.
The entire ten floors from the 49th to the 58th floor of the entire office building are occupied by Romek Construction Company, and half of the 58th floor has been transformed into luxury villas by Romek.
This villa is very safe. To get here, you must first pass through the 57th floor of strict security.
Here, Romek has a vast open-air swimming pool and rows of exquisite and luxurious rooms. The living room is as spacious as a palace.
Standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window near the swimming pool, he could overlook most of the scenery in Limen City.
"nice."
Wearing a light gray suit and holding a glass of red wine, Romek stretched out his calloused hand and slapped the blonde girl's buttocks.
The fair and plump peach trembled slightly, and the snow-white skin was rippled. The blonde girl smiled sweetly, "Then daddy, I'm going to play."
As she said that, she jumped into the open-air swimming pool outside. Her fair and slender thighs swayed like a fish in the water, and she swam out a few meters away.
Then she turned back, floated out of the water, looked at Romok, and showed a cute smile.
Her wet hair rested on her jade-smooth shoulders, and crystal water droplets slid down her chest.
Several hands stretched out from the water, grabbed the girl's body and dragged her underwater.
Several girls with graceful figures, youth, vitality, charm, cuteness, and different looks emerged from the swimming pool.
"No, no."
The blond girl who was pulled down at the beginning also emerged from the water, "Sisters, please spare me."
"How can I spare you like this?"
A few girls were having a fight in the swimming pool.
Romek looked at the youthful and beautiful scenery, picked up the wine glass and took a sip of the red wine in the glass.
These are his 'daughters', his 'sugar babies'.
He shook his head with a smile, turned and walked to the cloakroom nearby.
The cloakroom of this villa is extremely luxurious. There are exquisite tailor-made formal suits from Chenxi City, as well as fine fur coats shipped from Rock City in the northern border of the Federation.
Romek doesn't like those luxury brands that claim to be all handmade and have a long history. He likes pure 'private customization'. He raised a beautiful senior designer in his mansion in Chenxi City.
The designer has recently become famous in the entire federal design circle. Every year, he flies to Chenxi City several times to ask the designer to customize several sets of clothes for him.
Of course, in the process of tailoring, it is inevitable that there will be some physical contact and in-depth communication.
Romek enjoyed this kind of life very much. Long-term exercise and the latest energy potion from the Star Group made him still strong and vigorous even after he was sixty years old.
Recently, his personal doctor recommended that he try a "life extension service" that was recently promoted to the outside world by the Star Group. The Star Group claims that this service can easily extend a person's life to more than 100 years old and keep him energetic.
This means that he can enjoy this kind of life for several more decades.
Unfortunately, this life extension service is still invitation-only, and only qualified VIP users can get invitations.
Given Romock's VIP status, his personal doctor said he may have to wait a few more years.
Romek was very aware of this private doctor's sales tactics. The other party released this news in the hope that he would increase his recharge purchases to increase his VIP level.
Romek didn't say anything. He was always willing to spend money to protect his life and body.
He directly spent five million to purchase a new batch of services and medicines.
By the way, I tried the effect of the new energy potion on the disobedient personal doctor.
Money is a good thing.
Romek laughed, placed the wine glass in his hand on the bar at the door of the cloakroom, and walked into his cloakroom filled with all kinds of expensive clothes.
"do not move."
And the moment he walked into the cloakroom, something hard and cold pressed against his lower back.
A hoarse voice came from behind him.
Romek stiffened, and his hands subconsciously dug into his clothes.
"Hands up, I am a law-abiding person. If you don't move, I won't hurt you."
The hoarse voice sounded again.
Of course, the battle-hardened Romek would not believe this. His mind quickly changed and he slowly raised his hands, "Little brother, don't be excited. If you have anything to say, please tell me slowly. If you are short of money, I have A lot of money can be transferred to you.”
"Did you do the demolition project at Morak Park forty years ago?"
The voice behind him asked slowly.
"Morak Park..." Hearing this sentence, Romok was stunned and recalled a little, "I did it, but it took too long. I just entered the industry at that time, and I just contracted some simple building demolitions. Work···"
The 'visitor' behind this is He Ao. He came here to find Romok, naturally not just because of personal grudges.
According to the information investigated by Eve, Romok was the only contractor who worked on the demolition work of Morak Park and was the only one who still had an active record and could be easily found.
Morak Park is the building that was formerly the core area of the Stars Hospital. Before the Stars Hospital was built, a mysterious businessman bought the park, demolished it, and left it abandoned for twenty years.
"Then let me ask you," He Ao asked slowly, "do you know the name of the businessman who bought the park?"
"I don't know." Romock leaned slightly to allow his left hand to be slightly closer to the coat rack on the left. "I was a second-level contractor at the time. The businessman was very mysterious and we had never met him. It was not the businessman who subcontracted the project to me."
"You have been in this industry for so many years, but you really don't know anything?"
He Ao asked hoarsely.
Romek felt something pressing against his back move slightly, and the person behind him seemed to be preparing to shoot.
He quickly raised his hands and shouted loudly,
"Genos! Senator Genos! All construction projects in Limen City must go through the hands of the Senator family! They obtain the project at a 'high price' through bidding, and then subcontract it to us at a low price. The Senator forty years ago It’s Genos’s father, they must know who that businessman was!”
Romok felt the 'muzzle' behind him loosen.
He suddenly reached into the coat rack nearby, took out a dark submachine gun from under his thick clothes, turned around suddenly,
"What the hell, go to hell, bastard!"
