Is it cool to transmigrate to South America? Zhu Xianhai's answer is: it's very cool.

After all, 19th-century South America is still a place where cowards vie for hegemony, a land ful...

Chapter 1633 A Person's Character (Second Update, Please Subscribe)

A few hours later, an attendant wearing a black open-collar coat, carrying a fruit box, walked to the rear of a white Red Rabbit SUV, opened the trunk and put the box of fruit in.

“It looks like a box of fruit.”

An agent holding a camera said in a black van not far away.

“It’s just a fruit box.”

The officer standing nearby was staring intently at the screen. Wearing headphones, he was listening to the conversation between two people in the other room, and his expression looked very solemn.

Even as an agent of the Imperial Bureau of Investigation, he did not expect to hear all this. This was not a conversation between two high-ranking imperial officials, but a conversation between two ambitious people. What they were planning was not to abuse their power for personal gain, but a positive change!

If they succeed, everything in the empire will be changed, even the emperor... the emperor may be sidelined by them.

But in just a moment, he understood why "L" asked them to violate the principles of the Imperial Investigation Bureau and conduct investigations within the country, because if these ambitious people succeeded, the empire would most likely be destroyed.

Now, it's time for them to take action.

"It's most likely money. If it's 100-dollar bills, then a fruit box can hold at least hundreds of thousands of them. Tsk tsk, I originally thought those iron-faced judges were really ruthless, but after all this time, it turns out they are just birds of a feather."

"That's right, the so-called iron-faced judge is nothing but a bunch of insects!"

In fact, for many years, the image of prosecutors in their minds has been extremely tall, but everything they witnessed today overturned their imagination.

“Actually, this is normal.”

The officer who was monitoring the conspiracy in the room put down his headphones and said.

"When we are on missions abroad, we often encounter this kind of thing. The powerful bully the people and abuse their power for personal gain. Some people in some countries even do not hesitate to harm the interests of the country for their own selfish interests. We always think that all this happens in Europe, but what is the reality? They..."

He said, pointing at the two people on the screen.

"They just did it more secretly, and even kept saying it was for us."

"What a bunch of shameless people!"

As they were saying this, the conspiracy over there came to an end, and soon the target person drove the white Red Rabbit car away from the suburban club, and a car followed directly.

Li Zhijian asked after Xu Zili left the club and got in the car.

"Boss, did he agree?"

"Did he have any reason to refuse?"

Xu Zili asked back.

"He knows exactly what he can get from me. I can give him resources and opportunities. With my support, he will soon become a true star prosecutor and will be in the sight of the highest level. He may even become the Attorney General of the Empire and have the opportunity to attend banquets held in the palace. Only I can give him all this."

After saying that, he looked at Li Zhijian and said.

"Zhiyuan, remember, power is like real estate. Location is everything. The closer you are to the center, the more valuable your property is. If he wants to have power, he must get close to me."

"What the president said is very true."

Li Zhijian quickly nodded in agreement. He knew that the president was reminding him that his current position was the closest to the center of power, which also meant that he would definitely be rewarded in the future.

"The character of a man is not determined by how he enjoys victory, but by how he endures defeat. The same is true for how he endures loneliness."

"Boss, I understand!"

Li Zhijian nodded again. What he had to endure was not loneliness, but the fact that he could not hold a high position like other people, but only be a close confidant of the president. Only in this way could he achieve future success, greater success.

Nodding slightly, Xu Zili said.

"Zhiyuan, if you have some spare money recently, you can buy some shares of Mexico's Royal Petroleum Corporation."

"Thank you, President."

Li Zhijian quickly thanked him.

Everyone has a price, and Li Zhijian also has a price. Since he cannot be satisfied with power, he needs to be compensated with other things, such as money. However, he does not need to be given money directly, as that would be too cliché. An insider information can allow him to obtain a more generous reward.

For them, the stock market is sometimes like an ATM. This is why Xu Zili chose to use the stock market crash as a breakthrough point and even wanted to kill two birds with one stone.

"President, if this succeeds, they will most likely make concessions on the issue of the House of Nobles, and then our wish will come true."

As he spoke, Li Zhijian specifically reminded.

"But I'm worried that His Majesty won't give in. After all, the ancestral rules are there."

"They will give in!"

Xu Zili said.

"Your Majesty may not give in, but they will. No one has a clean bottom. As long as we bite them, they will definitely give in. As long as the House of Lords agrees, even Your Majesty..."

After a pause, Xu Zili said.

"We can only give in. The ancestral system is the ancestral system, and reality is reality. Those who follow the general trend of the world will prosper, and those who go against it will perish. Even if the Emperor Taizu were still alive, he would have to follow the general trend. Who would dare to resist the will of the people?"

After saying that, he sighed again.

"During this stock market crash, some people have made more than 10 billion yuan in profits, but hundreds of millions of people have even lost their pensions. If the rich and powerful are so greedy, how can we appease the public anger if we don't punish them severely? If we can't reform fundamentally, this stock market crash is just a trial run. In the future, the rich and powerful will surely use the stock market to reap the spoils of everyone in the world, and everyone in the world will be nothing more than leeks..."

After saying that, Xu Zili leaned back and said.

"We just need to follow public opinion!"

At this moment, Xu Zili was conceited. Perhaps he had never been qualified to be a chess player on this chessboard, but that did not prevent him from participating in this game. He was just playing the cards that belonged to him in this game.

What is the biggest trump card in his hand?

This is what he has always been best at, manipulation and exploitation.

"President, I think that's great,"

After complimenting him, Li Zhijian asked again.

"So what's next?"

"Next step……"

Xu Zili thought for a while and then said.

"The Wang family can no longer be relied upon for the time being. However, the Ming Dynasty has more than one protective umbrella. What is the biggest characteristic of those chaebols? Zhiyuan."

"greedy!"

Li Zhijian said almost without thinking, he had dealt with many chaebols over the years and had witnessed their greed more than once.

"Yes, it's greed. What we need to take advantage of now is their greed!"
