Chapter 179 The Brave Mayor Seizes Food From The Tiger's Mouth!
"Well, Mr. Mayor, I think your job is better than others, so I am willing to do something for you.
"But I won't do it if it's too much trouble."
Arthur picked up the coffee and took a sip. He couldn't help but take out the cigarette case from his pocket and light one for himself.
After looking at the two people present, he threw the cigarette case directly to Mr. Han next to him.
Mr. Han looked at the cigarette and raised his eyebrows and said, "Purely natural stuff? Rich people!"
That’s right, there are no purely natural cigarettes in Night City.
They are all produced in factories.
Things like Arthur's are relatively rare.
But it has to be said that sometimes humans just deserve to die, because they have reached this point where they would rather clear out a piece of uncontaminated land to grow tobacco leaves than clear out that piece of land to grow food.
Maybe it's because this thing belongs to the luxury category.
Mr. Han lit one for himself, and finally gave the cigarette case to the mayor with both hands. The mayor took out a cigarette and lit one for himself. Then he took off his hat and touched his big head.
After all, the weather was really hot and he was wearing a scarf, a hat and sunglasses, which made him feel a little bored.
Arthur looked around and found that the people in the entire restaurant were basically members of the ncpd, and no one was a normal customer.
But the more this happened, the more worried Arthur became.
Because the more cautious you are, the more trouble you will have.
"When you 403 treat me like this, I almost want to leave. You'd better tell me what's going on before I'm firm on this idea!"
Mayor Lucius took a light puff of his cigarette and then touched his head and said, "Actually, it's not a big deal, but I feel that you are the only one in the entire Night City who can help me."
Arthur raised his eyebrows, looked at the glass window next to him and wondered whether the glass was ordinary or bulletproof, and then looked at his size again, wondering whether he could run out despite his size.
As long as ordinary people open their mouths and say that it is not a big deal, it is a big deal.
The other party was just afraid of Arthur's rejection, so he said it was not a big deal.
"I heard that you have some friendship with the homeless people outside the city?"
Arthur raised his eyebrows. If the other party could find out such a thing, it could only be said that the other party's intelligence network was really powerful.
However, Arthur himself did not hide this matter, so it is not impossible to understand.
Speaking of homeless people, Arthur couldn't help but focus his attention on Mr. Han next to him.
"Is that so?"
"So you plan to compromise with the people in the company and clean up the homeless outside the city?"
"The price is to cut the NCPD budget, and this leek-cutting operation is to compensate?"
Mayor Lucius was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then looked at Arthur up and down with some surprise.
After a while, Lucius said with emotion: "You should be my deputy. Maybe you will be the next mayor!"
Arthur rolled his eyes, as deputy?
As your second-in-command, will you take me to the Red Queen's race?
"That's probably what happened. It's mainly because we have encountered a little difficulty recently. As you know, wanderers are like hyenas, they will go wherever there is meat.
"Even if we can eliminate the hyenas outside Night City, there will always be new hyenas coming."
Arthur touched his chin and looked at Lucius. He became more and more confused about what the old fox wanted to do.
If Lucius originally wanted to kill the people in the company so that the company would not press so hard, then this matter was still within Arthur's understanding.
But now that Lucius has agreed to the company's request, and has made more appropriate arrangements.
Then it shouldn't be so necessary to discuss the homeless matter with yourself.
After all, Arthur didn't think he could do anything in this incident.
And Arthur felt that he might even help homeless people outside the city if necessary.
Because compared to the gang of people in Night City, Arthur actually felt that the wanderers outside the city were more humane and more like human beings.
"so what?"
Lucius touched his big head and said: "We need some knowledgeable people, um, to help us build a beautiful Night City!"
Arthur suddenly narrowed his eyes.
He had thought about it a lot, but he didn't expect it to be this.
The other party's goal (bbde) is not to clean up the homeless outside the city at all. In essence, it is a struggle for power in the hope of gaining a greater say.
Arthur squinted his eyes and looked Lucius up and down.
No wonder this guy died in the Red Queen's race in the original book.
Are you turning on the light in the toilet to look for shit?
"Are you crazy or am I crazy, Mayor Lucius? Are you planning to reach out where you shouldn't?"
"Military Technology and Arasaka Group will not agree. Well, if you are willing to sell Taipingzhou to Kangtao, Kangtao may support it."
Lucius's purpose is actually obvious.
He cut the NCPD's budget in exchange for the company's support, and then turned around and took the big stick given to him by the company to cause trouble for homeless people outside the city.
Then take out a carrot so that one hand is a carrot and the other is holding a stick.
As long as the wanderers outside the city are not stupid, they will probably choose to be recruited.
You can recruit fewer people in the early stage, and declare to the outside world that you need the help of some spies to control the actions of the wanderers.
This is very reasonable because wanderers are cockroaches, they have strong vitality and are good at hiding.
As long as Lucius is given a little more time, by the time the company reacts, Lucius might already have an army under his command.
In fact, it can't be said to be an army, it should be said to be a group of wolf pups, and then this group of wolf pups will be used to continue discussions with the company.
While getting the NCPD's budget back, add a new establishment and a new budget.
Arthur felt that if Lucius really reached this point, the company would agree to this request.
Because Lucius has almost two years left in his term, that means Night City will be re-elected in 2078.
All these actions were completed in the year 2077.
At that time, the company will probably agree to prevent Lucius from causing any trouble to them, and then unseat this guy in the 2078 election, and then throw him into an iron bucket, fill it with cement and throw it into the river.
Eventually a new mayor takes office, and then everything Lucious has done before will be overturned.
Therefore, there is a high probability that people in the company will agree.
But there is a question here: will Lucius's successor choose to be the dog of Yiyi Company?
Arthur didn't know, he thought Lucius might have some back-up plan behind his back.
But the other party obviously overestimated everyone's character.
Not everyone is willing to fight for Night City, and not everyone will do their duty no matter where they sit.
Most people just want to lie down, most people just want to fish.
They will kill anyone who doesn't let them lie down and fish.
"This is my city! I don't need their consent!"
Lucius answered Arthur's question without thinking, and Arthur immediately gave him a thumbs up when he heard this.
This guy is really brave!
Even if I have a golden finger, I wouldn’t dare to be as brave as the other party!.
