Chapter 311 Trading "Old stuff?" Zhao Mingda didn't quite understand this word, and he looked at the director of the Science and Rehabilitation Institute. "What do you mean? Memories? Biological tissue? Or something else?" The director of the Science and Rehabilitation Institute just looked at Zhao Mingda steadily at this time. He did not answer the question immediately, but just talked about other things calmly. "The emperor is dead, and the cabinet has been reorganized into a temporary parliament. Next, those people headed by Tianen Company will definitely use some unconventional means to continuously squeeze the power of us. I will be involved in a life-and-death struggle. Regardless of whether I succeed or not, you will be the next director of the Science and Discipline Institute." Zhao Mingda listened to this statement which was almost like a will, and he took a deep breath. "I never understand. We signed that agreement when we became scientists and swore an oath that science is science and politics is politics. But now, you are still fighting for power and profit? Even if you have a higher status and more money, what can it bring you?" The director of the Discipline Inspection Institute replied calmly. "You don't have a family, so you don't understand. Sometimes, fighting for those things is not for yourself at all. There are very few people in this world who are selfish enough to only care about themselves. We all just want the people we care about to have a better life and not be bullied or humiliated by others." "As for that agreement? An agreement without constraints is just a piece of waste paper! What's the difference between science and politics? Politics is rooted in the soil of violence, and violence also needs politics to cover up its own ugliness! Scientists holding power is the greatest violence! Without the support of the Five Major Institutes and the Institute of Science and Discipline, the so-called central government is nothing but a bunch of chickens and dogs. They can't even control a single street in this city!"
He stared into Zhao Mingda's eyes and said such outrageous words, but when he said this, his tone had softened again. "You must understand these first before you can take over my position. And only if you take over my position can I tell you some things, understand? The Kejie Institute has long been infiltrated by Lin Xianjue and his people. Sun Wei, who killed the emperor today, actually entered Weiyang Pavilion as an intern secretary of the Cabinet Secretariat. Guess who recommended him to the Secretariat?" "It's our rehabilitation center!" This piece of news made Zhao Mingda's eyes shrink slightly. His brain was obviously not stupid. He could quickly think of how unfavorable the situation of the director would be if this matter was related to the Kejie Institute! "Lin Xianjue will definitely hold on to this matter. I have a feeling that my position as director will soon end. After this incident, no one else in the institute is worthy of my trust. The only one I can trust is you, Mingda!" He grabbed Zhao Mingda's arm with great force. "You've been with me for almost thirty years. I know exactly what kind of person you are. Other people would do this kind of thing, but you can't do it no matter what. You're a little too naive and idealistic. But at this point, these things will make them not reject you so much!" Zhao Mingda looked at him. "what do you want to say?" "You are curious about some things and want to get the answers. I can tell you, but these things cannot be understood by ordinary authority. If you know them, you will have to accept the position of director of the Institute of Discipline and Rehabilitation. Otherwise, once others know that you know all these things, you will inevitably fall into an irretrievable situation! And if you want to take over the Institute of Discipline and Rehabilitation, you must also promise me one thing!" Zhao Mingda just looked at him quietly, and didn't say anything for two or three seconds, then a self-deprecating smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. "You set a trap for me. You only told me half of the matter on 626, but even if it's only half, it's still a taboo. Now I can only agree to your conditions, no matter if I am willing or not." The director of the rehabilitation center did not argue or deny, he just spoke calmly. "Don't say such harsh words. You are the one who is impatient. I warned you at the beginning that there are some things that you have to be in a certain position to know." In response, Zhao Mingda did not seem as anxious as before. He crossed his hands in front of him. "Tell me your request first." "If the struggle between Lin Xianjue and I fails, you will definitely be the one to take over the position of director of the Institute of Discipline and Rehabilitation! You have a good relationship with many people in Tian'en, and you are also a veteran in the Institute of Discipline and Rehabilitation. They will definitely choose you. I have no other requests. I just want you to agree to this position and strive for it. After you take the position, take care of my family so that they will not be wiped out. At least one or two bloodlines will be left behind!" Looking at the almost pleading look of the director of the rehabilitation center, Zhao Mingda sighed. He understood that the fact was just as the director said. If Lin Xianjue really got promoted, he would most likely be the next director of the Science and Rehabilitation Institute. Just like the current director has no better choice, Lin Xianjue and his colleagues also have no better choice. No matter whether the Republicans or the Conservatives ultimately won the victory, it was impossible for them to really wipe out the other side. At most, they would just punish the leaders and compromise on some things afterwards.
Zhao Mingda, who usually seems to be inconspicuous, is the candidate acceptable to both parties in this situation. "I promise you, if it comes to that, I will protect the innocent people." In the end, Zhao Mingda agreed. In fact, he had no idea about the position of director of the Science and Rehabilitation Institute. Unlike those who broke their brains for power, Zhao Mingda was indeed an idealist. There were more things he wanted to change and more things he couldn't stand. If you want to achieve all this, a secular position, no matter how high it is, will be of no use. At this moment, his greatest obsession was on the biological person 626. After connecting all the things that happened in the East District, he felt that there was a big net that trapped everyone inside. The owner of the net seemed to be above everyone else, just like a spectator of a puppet show, watching the performance on the stage with indifference. Only when he wanted to intervene, would he quietly pluck a silk thread, causing everything to change drastically! After hearing Zhao Mingda's promise, the director of the rehabilitation center relaxed completely. He slumped in his chair and began to tell the secret that happened twenty years ago.
