Chapter 89 As long as you wear a mask, everyone is an actor
"Agreed?" The mayor looked back from the window. He glanced at Ferrara and asked, "How's it going?"

Returning to the office, Ferrara saw His Excellency the Mayor. At this time, the complex emotions in his heart were like a truck crashing into a chemical store, and various reactions continued one after another.

The only thing that made him feel more comfortable was the check that belonged to him in his chest pocket. In fact, it was not necessarily a bad thing to promise Lynch.

The city hall does not provide wages for people like Ferrara, the wages are spent by the mayor's own private office. In other words, the mayor pays salaries for people like Ferrara, so this salary is impossible Too high, which is why his salary is only more than 500 yuan, the mayor can hardly give him too high a salary.

In fact, it can be said that it cannot be afforded, but it is difficult to give too much. The salaries of members of the mayor's private office, including the expenses of the private office, come from the political donations donated by capitalists.

There are also certain standards and requirements for the use of political donations. It does not mean that the capitalists give the money to politicians, and politicians can spend it how they want. It has a relatively complete process and is also supervised.

If Ferrar's personal staff employed by His Excellency the Mayor are paid too high, the panel overseeing the use of the funds has the power to lower Ferrar's salary or ask the mayor to fire him.

This is a very rigorous and complex and very funny process. To put it simply, after the capitalists give the money to the politicians, they must prevent the politicians from only taking the money and do nothing, and at the same time prevent the greed of the politicians from expanding, so they thought a lot. There are heaps of methods to limit the use of this political donation. Until certain needs are met, this political cash can be drawn unconditionally to the maximum extent.

But until then, it has to come by the rules, and many eyes are on them.

At the same time, this has also become the biggest weakness of staff like Ferrara, or a shortcoming in work.

Once they are fired for some reason, it will be difficult for them to find the same job again. Even if they go to a general enterprise, it is difficult for the enterprise to give them a satisfactory job, so even if they are wronged outside, they should Be patient as much as possible.

In the future, if mayors can realize their political ambitions and ideals one day, they may not have the opportunity to go from behind the scenes to the front.

In the history of the Commonwealth, there are many examples of aides-turned-politicians who helped their former employers realize their ideals in life, gained enough experience themselves, and more importantly, gained the friendship of capitalists.

With the support of capitalists, plus their experience and experience, it is easy to achieve success, which is why Lynch's performance is somewhat strong, and Ferrara did not resist.

Once the trouble was too ugly, Lynch patted his butt and walked away. People would only say that his political stance and the mayor's political stance were not on the same line, so he left.

But Ferrara is prone to problems. When people talk about Lynch, they also talk about the mayor. It is not a funny thing for a mayor to force a capitalist away, which will make more capitalists vigilant.

In the end, only Ferrara will be unlucky. Not only will he and Lynch meet with acting, but the mayor will also -- "I've wronged you for a while...", and then the whole life will pass.

If he doesn't, maintaining a certain level of closeness with Lynch will actually help his future plans.

Once he decides to run for a certain position, Lynch, who has a good relationship with him, can immediately become his supporter. The key to winning this year is not how capable a person is, but whether he can act or not. And how much campaign money there is.

The mayor was holding his coffee, sipping it while looking at Ferrara.

He does have a lot of work, but he also has a lot of staff, plus Ferrar, he has a total of four staff, and two young men who are responsible for the dirty work.

Many times his job is to get everyone together, discuss what the job is about, and then complete his "homework" according to the results of the collective intelligence, so in fact the mayor's job is not as complicated as people think.

What is really difficult to accomplish has little to do with his work on paper, and the objects of these works are all in society.

This time, his staff found out about the second-hand goods auction and immediately realized the value in it. Buying what people need for less money, or reducing the desire to shop, can save a family more more funds.

With capital reserves, even if life will have some difficulties, it will not be completely impossible to survive.

These are just the most superficial views, and it is the word "action" that really gets the staff's attention.

When faced with a problem, most politicians always use words like "being dealt with", "countermeasures are being discussed" or even "there is nothing we can do" to explain why no action has been taken.

Although most people don't expect immediate solutions from their rulers, as long as they don't make things worse, they're already satisfied.

But sometimes people still feel dissatisfied and angry about the inaction and indifference of the ruler. Therefore, a successful politician and ruler must let the people see that he is not doing nothing when facing difficulties. Instead do something.

The second-hand commodity trade is the best answer sheet for the Mayor in the face of economic recession. He can use this to send a signal to the people of Sabine that he has contributed his own money to the city and its residents. Power, he is not a "zombie".

As for the result, if it is a good result, then people will not be stingy with their praise, from the civil society to the political arena, they will give him a high enough evaluation.

If it is a bad result, first of all, he has at least worked hard, and secondly, whether the implementation is in place, whether it conforms to his original plan, or whether there are some problems that caused the failure of this plan, it has nothing to do with him.

On the contrary, he can also take this opportunity to accumulate experience, which can be used as a political experience and knowledge reserve when necessary.

A perfect plan, he didn't even have to pay any price to make it happen, so why not?
Facing the mayor's gaze, Ferrar nodded. He had sorted out his emotions and became calm, as if all the results were in his plan.

"I have already negotiated with Lynch, and I have talked with him about something more far-reaching. With my help, Lynch realizes the role of your Excellency Mayor and the party behind you on Sabine City. You have dinner..."

When Ferrara said this, the mayor just smiled. There are more than 80 people in this city, but only one in [-] of them has such an opportunity. He doesn't think Lynch is such a ten thousand one of one.

Ferrar is very aware of His Excellency the Mayor's style and his attitude towards work and life. He did not expect the mayor to make a sound.

"Lynch promised to build a second-hand commodity distribution channel covering the whole state with Sabine City as the core, and provide at least [-] jobs for the society at the beginning of next year, and in addition..."

Ferrar took out the transfer check from his pocket and put it on the table, "This is what he spontaneously mobilized employees to donate to you in order to thank you, Your Excellency the Mayor and the Progressive Party for their help to Sabine City, hoping to help You, too, helped Sabine City."

The mayor raised his eyebrows, showing some interest. He took the check and glanced at it, then flicked it with his index finger, and then handed it back, "Give it to the accountant for the account..."

Political contributions will be handed over to a special accountant, and then the money will also go into a special public account, which is nominally at the disposal of the mayor.

He said for a while, "What did you say just now?" Before waiting for Ferrara to answer, he asked himself, "Lynch wants to invite me to dinner?" A smile appeared on his face, "Tell me He and I agreed. For some responsible young entrepreneurs, as a local manager, I should pass on my experience that is not outdated to him and help him avoid some detours."

He raised his eyebrows, "Look at my itinerary and help me arrange it."

It can be seen that Your Excellency the Mayor is in a good mood.
