my wife is a consul

Chapter 460

Board of Directors meeting room.

Looking at the proposals submitted by several representative directors, Masayoshi Kawamoto remained silent.

Beside the oval conference table, Lu Ming, Sun Chonggu, Zhang Jingsheng and other representatives from Longbei and Northern Xinjiang were chatting in low voices.

The proposal was jointly proposed by Lu Ming, Longbei representatives Li Tan and Sun Chonggu, and Beijiang representatives Zhang Jingsheng and Zhu Sangao. It was a proposal for the appointment of executive vice-chairmen of the six management committees of the Board of Directors.

There are thirteen committees in the Board of Directors.

Except for the entertainment management committee, which is chaired by Dongying native Ken Kawashima, the chairpersons of the other twelve committees come from the four major provinces, and each province occupies three committee chairpersons.

This proposal is to appoint a standing vice-chairman for each of the six committees chaired by people from Longbei and Beijiang to assist the chairman in managing the daily work of the committee.

A few days ago, the Transportation Commission caused a general strike on the bus routes in the Central District because of its careless handling.

These thirteen committees are actually the real administrative organization that manages all aspects of Shengjing.

It is conceivable that the four major provinces took over in a hurry, and it was easy to cause Shengjing to fall into chaos.

After all, they all lack real talents to manage modern cities.

The Dongying people were probably also waiting for troubles to happen. They were only making progress by retreating. They only asked for an entertainment committee.

The public transport system in the Central District went on strike, and there may not be a shadow of Dongying people behind the scenes.

But I don't want to, the current six committees have directly invited talents from Montenegro. In fact, many management talents from Montenegro come from the eastern part of the empire, and there are many elites from the East China Sea.

Obviously, the Montenegrin people didn't want to act as a substitute, but assisted in the capacity of the executive vice-chairman.

In this way, it quickly received positive responses from Longbei Province and Beijiang Province.

Not to mention Longbei Province, the two representative directors faintly, Li Tan and Sun Chonggu, have already worn a pair of trousers with Commissioner Zhang of Montenegro.

Northern Xinjiang Province was most influenced by Westerners, and the chief judges of the county courts were all Westerners.

It is easier to accept new things, and Zhang Jingsheng seems to know that it is not easy to govern Shengjing, so he supported Commissioner Zhang's proposal.

As for Anshan Province and Haixi Province, Lu Ming did not talk to their representatives at all.

Masayoshi Kawamoto flipped through the proposal in his hand. In fact, it was only two thin pages, but he flipped through it over and over again.

In terms of the composition of the public board of directors, there are three from Dongying, two from each of the four major provinces and the Montenegro Concession, and one representative from the Westerner James, making a total of twelve representatives.

Masayoshi Kawamoto, the chief director, has the power of two votes.

It is entirely possible to veto this proposal.

But the problem is that the assignment of the thirteen committees is like dividing spoils. The six committees involved in personnel changes in this proposal were originally assigned to Longbei Province and Beijiang Province.

If it is vetoed, the foundation of cooperation between all parties in Shengjing will immediately cease to exist, and chaos will immediately arise.

"Everyone should have no opinion on this proposal." Masayoshi Kawamoto finally spoke.

Next, there are some miscellaneous affairs.

When the meeting was over, Liu Kui walked up to Lu Ming and smiled slightly: "Commissioner Zhang, there is a game tonight at the Ginza Club. Is Commissioner Zhang interested? There are me, Mr. Asaba Nagamasa, Mr. James, Zhang Jingsheng participating in politics, An Laoxi Representative, it would be great if Commissioner Zhang could come! It is still the three cards that Commissioner Zhang is good at."

Lu Ming smiled and said, "Okay, I don't have any plans tonight." Last time I won 10,000+ from this guy, it's impossible to say that he doesn't hate his teeth.

And this round, if Liu Kui didn't want to take revenge, he wouldn't have invited him at all, it was obviously another circle.

In particular, Zhang Jingsheng, who is from northern Xinjiang, and Liu Kui, who is from Haixi, participated in a game of cards in private, and there must be something involved in it.

Northern Xinjiang and Haixi have always been incompatible, but in the two provinces, there are many sympathizers or conflicts of interest.

The Zhang Jingsheng family seems to have a tradition of marriage with the Haixi family.

Over there, seeing Lu Ming agreeing to participate in the poker game, Liu Kui smiled happily, and asked again: "Commissioner Zhang, I heard that Mrs. Margaret is in your residence?"

Lu Ming glanced at him. This guy really couldn't forget, and he also found out about Margaret's whereabouts.

Lu Ming smiled: "I do have a maid named Margaret, but I don't know if it is Mrs. Margaret you mentioned."

Liu Kui pondered, "I don't know Commissioner Zhang, can you bring her to this game? If it is possible to make a price, Commissioner Zhang can make a price."

Lu Ming smiled and said, "That's not enough. To tell you the truth, brother Liu, the maidservants in my mansion also have personalities, and they are not things." When he spoke, he was slightly guilty. Of course he thought so, but since From the east and west palaces, to Qing'e who manages the maidservants, such as Grandma Tuolong, how could these slaves be regarded as human beings?
"If, I'm willing to offer 50 yuan! I'm not trying to buy her. As Commissioner Zhang said, she has personality. I'm willing to pay 50 yuan to restore her freedom." Liu Kui gritted his teeth.

Lu Ming was startled, and looked at Liu Kui. This guy seems to be really infatuated with Margaret?I just met him once, but I don't know where, it touched this guy's soul.

This guy is greedy, mean, shameless, vicious and cunning in his work. All the words to describe a bad guy can be used on him.

Will there be truth?

Maybe it's because what you can't get is the best, so Liu Kui is so obsessed with it.

Moreover, Liu Kui firmly believes that everyone has a price tag.

It can be considered a high estimate of myself, 50 huge sums of money, just a woman.

Even ordinary wealthy households are afraid of selling their wives, let alone maidservants.

"I'll think about it." Lu Ming smiled.

……

In the study room of 1500.

"I told you, that person is willing to pay 50 yuan to redeem your freedom." Lu Ming looked at Margaret standing in front of him, and paused, "Of course, it sounds grand, but you can recover your freedom." Those who are not free will still need someone to protect them, but anyway, 50 means that he cares about you very much, and he can't make mistakes in the future. Think about it carefully, isn't that the reason?"

"50..." Margaret murmured, and a trace of sadness flashed in Margaret's green eyes.

Indeed, once a noble lady of a wealthy family hidden in Shengjing, her husband earned more than 50 yuan a month. Now that she is clearly marked with a price of 50 yuan, it seems that she should be flattered.

"For 50 yuan, I want to buy the master's foot-warming fire girl..." Granny Tuolong revealed a trace of disdain, and whispered beside her, "Even 1000 million, tens of millions... It's not worth the master's health... ..."

She is 120 unwilling to sell these foot warmers, and it is really hard to find them these days.

A wry smile appeared on the corner of Margaret's mouth, and she didn't know whether she should be happy or sad when she heard what the mysterious and terrifying old lady said.

But at the very least, being a warm baby seems to have a very high value, a value that outsiders can't even recognize.

Lu Ming waved his hand: "Okay, let's stop with this question, I'm a villain in vain."

After glancing at Granny Tuolong, Lu Ming said, "Tonight there is a poker game at Dongying people's territory. You said last time that there are people from Jintianmen over there. Do you think I can still win hundreds of thousands?"

Jin Tianmen, when he was suppressing bandits on Wanzhou Road, he met one who was very good at using the terrain to cover up his hiding place, similar to his ninjutsu in his previous life.

Granny Tuolong said that there are several people like this in the Black Dragon Society, and she often goes there to investigate.

"It's just a trick to cover one's eyes and change cards. It's not surprising if there is a master in Jintianmen." Granny Tuolong said, "I or Miss Yuluan, it's good to go with the master."

Lu Ming frowned, "But you keep saying that these tricks will fail in front of me? You've always been complimenting me, right?"

Grandma Tuolong laughed dryly, "No matter what, the master should bring me or Miss Yuluan with him this time."

"Forget it, I want to see if you guys are flattering me." Lu Ming said, "It's good that Xiaoguo and Xiaoguo accompany me!"

"The old slave is still waiting outside to meet the master." Granny Tuolong nodded slightly.
