Manufacturing Empire in the Valley

Chapter 2231 Those in power, the sword bearer, the sword bearer

Grandma Walker said this and opened a wooden box at her feet. Inside the box were two ancient bronze swords about [-] centimeters in length. The two ancient bronze swords were exactly the same in shape. Unopened, it seems to have only symbolic meaning, and does not have the function that the sword itself should have.

Grandma Walker handed the two ancient bronze swords to Barbara and Niu Xiaoqiang respectively, and Niu Xiaoqiang looked down carefully.He found that one side of the ancient bronze sword's hilt was engraved with patterns in the shape of an eyeball and a giant sword, and the other side of the hilt was engraved with a pattern of a human face without facial features.

Seeing this pattern of a human face without facial features, Niu Xiaoqiang couldn't help but feel moved: After wearing a mask, the facial features of the face are also invisible. Does this pattern mean that the organization that Grandma Walker belongs to is really related to the masked people organization?

Niu Xiaoqiang wanted to find more evidence to prove his guess, so he lowered his head and looked at the pattern on the blade.Both sides of the blade were engraved with the same pattern, which looked like a badge. Niu Xiaoqiang looked at it for a while but couldn't see any connection between the badge pattern and the Masked Man Organization.

Barbara was also looking at the ancient bronze sword in her hand. Grandma Walker waited until the two of them had finished watching the ancient bronze sword, and then said: "The eyeball patterns engraved on the hilts of these two ancient bronze swords are the symbols of the organization. , The face pattern without facial features represents the organization's behavior style. I don't know the meaning of this symbol for the time being, mainly because my level is not high enough to know the meaning of this symbol. As for the organization's behavior style, I understand this, and you must be able to guess it, so I won’t explain further.”

When Barbara heard this, she couldn't help asking: "Grandma, does this facial pattern without facial features represent a secretive style?"

Grandma Walker nodded slightly: "Yes, you guessed it right, our existence is secret, outsiders must not know our existence except ourselves, if someone inside the organization dares to break this rule, no matter who he is, he will definitely Paid a heavy price, as far as I know, no one can make an exception, so I have to remind you, no matter what you think in your heart, don't disclose anything about the organization to anyone, otherwise not only you , the people around you will not escape the tragic fate."

This obviously means that the consequence of revealing the organization's information is death, not only you will die, but your family and friends will also die.

Barbara nodded solemnly when she heard the words, and didn't ask any more questions.

Upon seeing this, Grandma Walker continued: "The pattern on the blade is the badge of the Cloth family. Every individual or family that joins the organization must have a badge of their own. This badge must be newly designed and must not be associated with the family. The badge in the secular society is the same, it is equivalent to your identity certificate within the organization, I am the sword bearer of the generation of the cloth family, my code name in the organization is Prometheus, this code name is also the identity of the cloth family in the organization. code name."

Barbara couldn't help asking again after hearing this: "Grandma, you mentioned the sword bearer before, and now you mention the sword bearer. I don't know what the specific meanings of these two titles are?"

This question is also something Niu Xiaoqiang really wanted to figure out, but he was more calm and didn't bring it up.

At this moment, hearing Barbara help him raise this question, Niu Xiaoqiang immediately pricked up his ears, wanting to hear Grandma Walker's answer.

Grandma Walker explained: "The sword holder is equivalent to the assistant of the sword holder. You can understand it as the role of secretary or housekeeper. At the same time, the sword holder also has room for advancement, as long as you attend the organized party with the sword holder. , you are equivalent to automatically becoming peripheral members of the organization. In the future, as long as your performance is good enough, you will be promoted to become sword bearers. Of course, Barbara will take over the cloth family in the future, so she will be promoted to become The person holding the sword is basically something that can be determined, so the qualification for this promotion is actually for Niu Xiaoqiang."

Grandma Walker looked at Niu Xiaoqiang when she said this: "Niu Xiaoqiang, the opportunity I told you before actually refers to the opportunity to be promoted to be a swordsman. As long as you can be promoted to be a swordsman, you can get a lot of ordinary Privileges that people cannot have, of course, at the same time, you also need to pay a certain price. This is the pros and cons I told you. As for what the privileges and costs are, there is no fixed answer. Personal preferences give people different privileges, and make different demands, so the privileges you can get and the price you pay can only be discovered by yourself."

Niu Xiaoqiang nodded slightly, indicating that he understood.

Grandma Walker continued: "Speaking of sword bearers, they are the core members of the organization. I have already mentioned the advantages and disadvantages of becoming a sword bearer, so I won't repeat them. Now I will only tell you about the level of sword bearers. Sword bearers are divided into five levels. The level is determined by the number of ancient bronze swords you hold. For example, the cloth family currently only holds two ancient bronze swords, so the cloth family belongs to the second level within the organization. Sword bearer, the highest level of sword bearer is five, the higher the level, the sword bearer can enjoy greater privileges, and can recommend more people to the organization to be promoted to become sword bearer, the sword bearer has votes Power, the more people you have in the organization, the more voting power you have, and if you have enough confidence in yourself, you can initiate a vote and become the highest-level person in power in the organization."

Grandma Walker paused for a while when she said this, to give the two of them time to digest.After a while, she went on to say: "There is an essential difference between those in power and those who hold the sword. The one who holds the sword can only make suggestions and has no decision-making power. At the same time, he does not know who the other members of the organization are, but the person in power can directly make decisions. Decisions are made, and those in power know the true identity of all sword bearers and sword bearers."

"If you encounter something that needs to be voted on, the person in power can also use a veto. For example, the sword holder I just mentioned is promoted to a vote initiated by the person in power. Even if your votes meet the requirements, as long as there is one If the person in power raises a negative opinion, then you are equivalent to losing the promotion, and you can only initiate a vote again at the next gathering."

This time Niu Xiaoqiang couldn't help but asked: "What if this person is rejected again? Or if a certain person in power is unhappy with a certain sword-wielding person and always puts forward negative opinions, doesn't that mean that this person is Can the sword bearer never be promoted to power?"
