We are all old businessmen, so of course we have very good abacus calculations.

The Leader Association is, after all, a new organization. If a new organization wants to develop rapidly, it needs a large number of talents.

So who has the most talents in the twin cities of socialism? Of course it is the old bourgeoisie.

And many of these talents are irreplaceable in a short period of time.

Just like Seraphine's father, Mr. Erwin - he used to be a business owner, and after joining the Leader, he was still the factory director.

Because except for this old business owner, there are very few people in the Leaders Association, which is mainly composed of workers and students, who have experience in running and managing a factory.

The only person qualified to be a factory director is him, the original business owner.

The same is true for Mel.

Although Levi resolutely rejected her request for a permanent director seat at the beginning, as the power of the Wind Leader Association continued to expand, from factories to communities to Zaun base areas, the administrative work in the jurisdiction became more and more complex and huge.

A high-level talent like Meyer with many years of experience in city management naturally becomes the best candidate for permanent director.

"Since Senator Mel can change his identity and become a director of the Leaders Association, why can't we?"

The representatives of the big families present all had sweet dreams.

They all dreamed of becoming the permanent directors of the Wind Leader, turning the Wind Leader Association into the "Piltover Council 0".

"Stop your wishful thinking!" Only Camille saw it most clearly.

She looked at these weak colleagues with disdain and mocked: "Don't you know that the Wind Leader Association has a magical technique to test faith? If Janna's Divine Choice is real, then this magical technique is real -"

"They can 'see' your belief!"

"Do you still think you can transform yourself from an old aristocrat of the kingdom into a free merchant in the city-state of Piltover with the ability to jump repeatedly like you did when the Kingdom of Zaun fell?"

"No, it's different this time!"

Camille knew very well that the Wind Leader was different from all previous dragon slayers.

In the past, the goal of dragon slayers was only to slay dragons, but the leader of the wind wanted to kill the soil where the evil dragon was born.

If they surrender now, they may receive preferential treatment and keep their property and life safe.

But it is no longer possible to completely retain the family wealth they have accumulated for hundreds of years and to maintain the social privileges they are accustomed to and cannot give up.

The great nobles who used to be respected by their surnames will now be on an equal footing with those Zaun orphans who don't even have surnames.

"Are you willing?" Camille asked these surrenderers coldly.

Of course they were unwilling.

but

The family representatives looked at Miss Meyer standing aside.

Mel, wearing a tight and slim-fitting gold embroidered skirt, stood quietly, not speaking, but smiling politely.

She didn't need to speak. The wind-torn parliament hall, the marble floor with deep trenches and countless cobweb cracks, were the leader's best words.

This is also the only language that these representatives of the big families can understand.

"So." Feeling that the atmosphere was almost brewing, Mel said at the right time: "Those who oppose the war with the Wind Leader Association can now vote by a show of hands."

"I object." Mrs. Gila Mann was the first to raise her hand.

"Well, I support peace." Heimerdinger thought for a moment, and then stood up for the second time.

When everyone saw it, Heimerdinger, the roly-poly of the N Dynasty, had already lined up, and they all raised their hands:

"I think the Leader Association may not be so barbaric and unreasonable." 3 votes.

"Takeda Saito is a scumbag, so he killed well." 4 votes.

"Huh?" Jess was still a little stunned: "But that article"

"Mr. Tallis, the article in the "Piltover Daily" is nonsense. The author must have received money from the Takeda Remaining Party - all this is a conspiracy by the Takeda Remaining Party!" 5 votes.

"What about the human rights issue?" Jess asked nonchalantly.

"You are joking about human rights issues. In a ghost place like Zu'an, dozens or hundreds of people will not die one day?"

"The few people the Windleader Association killed in Zaun, to put it mildly, were not enough to do anything." 6 votes.

Jess: ""

"Actually, my child is very interested in the theory of leader. When I go back today, I will ask him to submit an application for membership." 7 votes.

"I have wasted half my life, and I only regret that I have never met the true God. Director Mel, if you don't dislike it, I am willing." 8 votes.

"The Wind Leader Association is indeed not very friendly to us. But the additional losses caused by resisting the Wind Leader have obviously exceeded the harm caused to us by the existence of the Wind Leader itself."

"So I think we should learn to coexist with the Leaders Association." 9 votes.

"You're right. Didn't the economy take off after Myrdalda and Gila Mann cooperated with the Leader?" 10 votes.

"Yes, I think the movement of the Leaders Association is just a large-scale strike, and it won't kill us!" 11 votes.

"Miss Mel" Jess looked at Mel with mixed emotions, and finally cast his vote.

At the end of the voting, there were 7 members plus 20 family representatives, plus Camille, for a total of 28 votes.

Among the 28 votes, only Camille openly supported war with the Wind Leader Association. The remaining 27 people were calling for peace and even supported increasing cooperation with the Wind Leader Association.

Even several in-law families who were closely related to the Philos family, whom Camille specially invited to wave the flag and cheer for her, now ostensibly betrayed her.

"You, you—" Magic energy surged in Camille's eyes, and the blooming blue light silently told her anger.

The enemy no longer even pretends, but these weaklings are still here acting like ostriches.

How can we practice good socialism with these insects?

"You trash!" Camille shouted coldly.

But everyone had no respect for her, the Gray Lady of Piltover, and they just gathered around Miss Mel enthusiastically and obsequiously, asking about the United Front Policy of the Wind Leader Association.

There was even a family representative who had never dealt with the Philos family. At this time, he said in a subtle tone:

"Mrs. Camille, if what our family spies heard is correct, your Philos family seems to have been secretly cooperating with the Wind Leader Association, right?"

"Otherwise, your artificial Hex gemstone factory is 'fired and shut down' every day, and you won't be able to deliver the goods without increasing the price. The large number of artificial Hex gemstones that the Wind Leader Association bought at low prices a few days ago are all

Where did it come from?”

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere at the scene suddenly changed.

Everyone looked at Camille with strange eyes:

Good guy, you act so tough in front of others, but it turns out that your family members have secretly joined the team?

So does Camille really want to be an enemy of the Wind Leader?

Could this be a double act between her and the leader, trying to identify the thorns in the Piltover plutocrats, lure the snake out of its hole, and kill the chicken to scare the monkey?

"That was a private transaction between Stevan and the Leader, and has nothing to do with our Philos family," Camille said.

"Mr. Stevan is your brother and the head of the Feros family." Someone questioned: "How could his decision have nothing to do with the Feros family?"

This is true. Legally speaking, compared to Camille, the chief spy, the attitude of Stevan, the head of the family, can better represent the decision-making direction of the Philos family.

Now Stevan himself is flirting with the leader.

Camille wants to jump out and lead Piltover against the Wind Leader, so how can she be convincing?

"I understand." Camille finally gave everyone present a cold look.

She knew that she was no longer welcome here.

However, what they said makes sense.

Camille took a deep breath. Although the advanced Hex mechanical transformation had made the action of inhaling have only symbolic meaning.

But she is still used to strengthening her determination in this way.

to do the right and hard thing.

"Stevan, and the leader." Camille turned around decisively and left the parliament hall with steely steps: "This problem should be solved."
