Chapter 1122

With the general election approaching, although the presidential candidate nominated by Senator Cleveland's side failed and did not win the stage in the party to become the candidate nominated by the Social Party, this does not mean they will completely give up the general election, as well as the benefits that might come from a successful general election.

This is like a gamble. Everyone is already sitting at the gambling table. Losing their own dealer doesn't mean they won't place bets when others are the dealer.

This is a powerful group. Their betting might bring some turmoil and changes to the subsequent general election.

Many people think the Freedom Party will definitely win, but before the general election results come out, who can guarantee 100% that the Freedom Party will win? No one can guarantee this result, so naturally, these politicians who have already placed heavy bets must collect as much information useful to themselves as possible.

This time, Senator Cleveland and the others didn't intend to really put in effort, so they didn't do similar things.

If it were next time, or if they intended to run for election with all their strength, they would also arrange similar people to do the same things.

Monitor more competitors and find things of value to themselves from their work.

"Hand over the list of those big figures to me, and I will deal with it."

"As for the police station and the Federal Bureau of Investigation, they should be tailing you, right?"

This is a question, but he said it very firmly, turning a question into a declarative sentence.

He knows the reason why the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the police station are tailing Lansi—the issue of de-gangsterization mentioned by Mr. Potter in his propaganda.

Every president will publish many speeches about his political platform when running for election. If they take office, they will attach importance to those problems and solve those problems.

In these views they explain to the public, in fact, 70% to 80% are things they cannot do.

For example, these candidates will always mention medical problems, educational problems, and the like, but it can be said that almost no one can complete what they promised.

They have to mention it again, because voters care about this very much.

So here, some skills are needed. They also need to bring out other views or their own action goals, and then complete this part.

Just like Mr. Potter mentioned the corruption problem, he wants to rectify the atmosphere of corruption, but it is very likely that he cannot do it. This goal will only be used by him, by them, as a means of political maneuvering in political struggles.

If he cannot do it, the public will be very disappointed, which is unfavorable to his election in the mid-term general election.

Then he must have some work that can be completed, letting people know that at least he completed a part, and people should give him more time to let him complete those that have not been completed.

Although in the end, these things cannot be completed, for presidents, it is actually indifferent, because they cannot come again.

Compared with those promises that are not easy to realize, although de-gangsterization is not a very simple thing, it is easy for the public to see.

Facing Senator Cleveland's teasing, Lansi didn't respond to him with that relaxed tone, but asked back, "Senator, the Federal Bureau of Investigation has too many privileges. If they use investigating me as a reason to collect information and intelligence about you and others, is there such a possibility?"

"We cannot rule out such a possibility. After all, its birth itself was for political maneuvering."

"It's just that the previous directors didn't do well enough. None of them wanted to offend anyone, so they never exerted any effect."

"I know this person Roland. He is a very ambitious and very patient person. He may not be willing to be a tool that can be manipulated."

The previous directors caught small characters, civilians, ordinary people, and didn't dare to move against politicians, especially those in Congress and the high levels of the three major parties.

Let alone move against them, they didn't even dare to monitor them and collect evidence, so the Federal Bureau of Investigation has always had no sense of existence.

Until now, Roland began to serve as director, and he began to seize power.

Senator Cleveland thought for a while and didn't fully agree with Lansi's point of view, but didn't fully oppose it either. "We do need to be vigilant about this problem. I need to consider it."

"If the people caught have no problems, let them go."

"If it's not convenient to let them go, find a way to minimize the impact. You know how to do it."

After the Senator put down the phone, he held his chin with both hands, his gaze revealing a look of thinking and scrutiny.

He could hear Lansi's words—he wanted to find some trouble for the Federal Bureau of Investigation, but he didn't dislike it. On the contrary, he even supported it in some aspects, because he felt he had been offended.

Those people clearly knew that he invited those guests to attend the meeting he held, but they were still monitoring them at the door. Would they record the visiting guests? Would they record other things? It looks like this is official business, and it has no direct relationship with him, but in essence, these people have already offended him.

Roland.

He curled his lips. Originally, this person didn't have any clear like or dislike in his mind, but now, he doesn't like this person.

On the other side, Lansi dealt with those who were not very cooperative. These people had suffered the torture of interrogation. If they were released, it would be clearly handing a handle to those people, so he directly had people deal with them.

Put them in oil drums, fill them with concrete, and throw them into the sea. In the corners of this world, be forgotten by everyone.

This method of handling is very useful.

He doesn't know if Senator Cleveland will take action, or how he will take action, but he knows he has buried a thorn.

After he smoothed out the whole process again and again and there were no problems, he dialed the phone number of Major General Bruny (Department of Defense official).

"This is Bruny."

"It's me, Lansi."

"Lansi?", Major General Bruny's voice clearly carried a trace of surprise. "I didn't expect you to call me."

"Is there anything?"

Lansi and the Department of Defense have cooperation, and there is also interest delivery, but the contact is far less close than with Congress, and it has stabilized. The rest is "official business."

The Department of Defense purchases military supplies from them, and then Lansi gives them kickbacks.

However, the scale of this business is shrinking because the war is over, and the federal government does not need so many active-duty soldiers, which means the profit and kickbacks of this business will decrease, and it is reasonable that his contact with the Department of Defense has decreased.

Lansi said with a smile, "There is something. I just met the Senator, and he told me that the military is about to reduce the army. I considered it and want to set up a security company to hire some veterans."

"You know, I have relatively close cooperation with the military and the Department of Defense, and I know very well that these people need a process to return to society after leaving the army."

"I have indeed made a lot of money over the years, so I am willing to take on some responsibilities."

"I want to ask if this matter is convenient."

Major General Bruny was very happy to hear Lansi say this. "Convenient, of course convenient, how could it not be convenient?"

"How many people do you plan to recruit?"

If calculated at a salary of seventy dollars per person, he can probably hire five thousand to ten thousand people.

This can ensure that he can still make a little money every year.

However, he won't say this number to Bruny so fully. "Six thousand people."

"Six thousand people?"

"Six thousand people is not a small number. This matter... what you proposed is indeed very timely. We have also been discussing this matter recently. How do you plan to arrange it specifically?"

The Department of Defense must also have a headache about this matter. These soldiers were originally tricked into the army, especially those young people.

They have been out of touch with society for several years. Now that they are not needed, they are kicked out immediately, which has triggered some dissatisfaction among soldiers.

How to settle these veterans has always been a trouble for the Federation. How to let them return to normal life and work is also a trouble.

Lansi is now actively bringing up this idea, perhaps it can play a leading and exemplary role in solving the work arrangements for some veterans.

Turning him into a template, a model, it will become easier to solve the remaining problems.

Lansi also knows that this matter cannot be explained clearly in a few words, so he made a suggestion. "We can meet and talk."

Major General Bruny considered it. "No problem, but I don't have time today."

"How about this: tomorrow, tomorrow afternoon at three o'clock I have a meeting, it will end at about three-forty. We will meet then and talk in detail."

Lansi agreed immediately.

After putting down the phone, he called Senior Agent Supervisor Ford. "Tomorrow afternoon around four o'clock, my motorcade will appear outside Johnson Park. Reveal this news immediately."

Senior Agent Supervisor Ford was stunned for a moment, then agreed immediately. "Should the Perez family people know too?"

"Otherwise?", Lansi asked back. "Don't mess it up. This is very important."

The Senior Agent Supervisor agreed, guaranteeing that he would definitely complete the task.

From the moment he was persuaded by his friend, from the moment he received Lansi's first sum of money, he had already been bound together with Lansi.

Roland asked him to watch Lansi and these people, to discover their traces and itinerary arrangements, which also seemed to be within the scope of his work.

Soon he reported this situation to Roland. An informant said that Lansi was going to Johnson Park tomorrow, around four o'clock in the afternoon.

Roland praised Senior Agent Supervisor Ford, and then he revealed this news to the Perez family side through his own channels.

The Perez family people who were planning to assassinate Lansi got this confirmed news in less than ten minutes, and also told Bob.

"Is the source of the news reliable?", Bob felt a bit... surprised on the phone. He was a bit unsure if the intelligence these people obtained was true.

If Lansi's itinerary could be mastered so easily, he certainly wouldn't have lived until now.

But he thought about it carefully again. The Perez family indeed has some interpersonal relationships in New Jincheng over the years, and it's not the first time Lansi has been attacked and assassinated.

The person responsible for this assassination of Lansi is a member of the Perez family in New Jincheng. The guy in charge said that this piece of news is very reliable, and there is a very reliable source of intelligence.

And he indicated to Bob that even if this intelligence is fake, it won't have any loss for them, nothing more than a wasted trip.

And the New Jincheng police station has a bad relationship with Lansi, so there is no need to worry about Lansi using the police to make things difficult for them.

After listening to these words, Bob finally agreed with their idea of trying it out.

If the news is true, then even if they can't kill Lansi, they can give him a lesson he will never forget.

If the news is fake, then they won't have any loss.

With Bob's affirmation and agreement, the Perez family members in New Jincheng immediately began to take action, preparing for tomorrow's assassination.

The next afternoon, a little past three o'clock, Lansi's car appeared outside the Department of Defense. By the time it was past three-thirty, Major General Bruny's meeting had already ended.

Under Lansi's suggestion of "finding a place to talk," Major General Bruny took Lansi's car and left the Department of Defense together. Of course, after they finished talking, Lansi still had to send him back.

It's not that it's impossible to talk about these things in the Department of Defense, but it's not too good. There are many people and mixed eyes. If he and Lansi stayed in his office for too long, there might be some rumors.

After all, Lansi still has the identity of a gang leader, and is also a big gold master in Senator Cleveland's circle. Obvious labels and political factions sometimes trigger some unnecessary trouble.

Sitting in Lansi's luxurious bulletproof car, Major General Bruny patted the fleshy seat cushion. "You are a person who knows how to enjoy."

Lansi smiled. "If you like it, I'll give you one."

This sentence made Major General Bruny a bit unsure how to answer. He looked at Lansi, eyes wide. "You make me a bit tempted, to be honest."

"Has anyone told you that you are too... direct?"

Lansi laughed. "Isn't it better if we are both simple?"

Major General Bruny thought for a while and also said with a smile, "Pretty good."

After a pause, he began to ask the questions he wanted to know. "How do you plan to arrange these veterans?"

Lansi began to expound his ideas. "We have many reconstruction plans on the Tanfite continent. You know, our relationship with the locals is not necessarily very good, including the Slades."

"I heard that there are some extremist ideological organizations in Slade, and they also regard us as a kind of invader, spreading some unfavorable remarks about us."

"These people might affect the personal safety and property safety of federal enterprises and workers working locally, so I plan to set up a security company to protect the personal safety and property safety of federal enterprises in Slade, and even the entire Tanfite continent."

"Because this matter has certain risks, they need to carry guns and continue to maintain semi-militarized management."

"Of course, I will give them a satisfactory salary."
