Blackstone Code

When Anna came out of the independent room, she immediately saw the ladies and gentlemen still soaking in the pool.

Her face was a little red, maybe because the temperature was too high, or maybe...she was a little embarrassed, she fell asleep.

The hot spring here is very comfortable, even in a private room.

There is a small pool inside, slightly larger than a bathtub. It is paved with many smooth stones. Sitting on it will not feel uncomfortable, but will give you a comfortable feeling of being pressed.

Coupled with the spring water at the right temperature flowing in the pool, yes, it was living water, Anna fell asleep quickly.

She wasn't sure how long it had been, ten minutes, half an hour, or more?

She wasn't sure.

A group of people were eating, and someone suddenly had the idea to have a barbecue here. After playing cards for a while, it was almost evening.

Mr. President felt that he suggested a hot spring barbecue trip, so the servants in the entire manor began to get busy.

Considering the potential air hazards posed by barbecues, they opened all the vents.

The circulation of air creates an interesting phenomenon.

The steam rising from the pool can only be maintained within a short distance above the pool. Any further away and will be blown away by the cold wind. It is very cold outside the pool, but it is very warm inside, which makes people more and more reluctant to leave. .

"Sorry, how long have I been gone?" She walked to Lin Qi and sat down, holding his arm naturally.

Anna is wearing an old-fashioned swimsuit. How old-fashioned?

Who would have thought that this one-piece swimsuit actually has a short skirt, which shows how old-fashioned it is!

But this is the best choice for the people here, especially Mr. and Mrs. President.

This will not make the men in the underground space focus on one person. Although they know that men’s eyes are always pursuing young girls, they still don’t want to see their partners chasing someone other than themselves. people.

People will always be selfish in some things, and they will never learn to be generous.

"It's been about thirty minutes, have you fallen asleep?" Lynch got to the bottom of the matter with just one sentence.

Anna didn't know whether to deny it or admit it. Fortunately, Lynch helped her out...if that was a relief.

"You must be asleep!"

The gentlemen laughed kindly. They had just discussed a lot of things in the card game.

Lynch felt that the President seemed to be under a lot of pressure recently, and he didn't quite understand where the pressure came from.

Maybe it was given to him by himself, or maybe it was given to him by the outside world. From Lynch's point of view, he should not be under pressure.

"What do you want?" Lynch looked at Anna. The scent from outside the pool had already wafted in. Everyone knew what dinner was.

There is nothing more enjoyable than eating this in the middle of winter with the sweet sauce and grilled meat.

Anna was indeed a little hungry. She had been exposed to the cold wind for more than an hour and was both cold and hungry. Now that the cold problem was solved, all she was left with was hunger.

"Perhaps our chef would like to bring you a plate of barbecue, and ask for the tenderest part!" Lynch said the second half of the sentence to the cooks outside the pool.

Being invited here as guests of the President means that these people will become people very close to the President, and they are qualified to ask the chefs to cook something.

Soon a small plate of beef was cut into squares of more than one centimeter and delivered. The beef was just the right amount of fat and lean, and you could see a thin, translucent butter film between each muscle fiber.

The fat has been removed during the frying process, but the remaining fat is still one of the important reasons for maintaining the tenderness of the beef.

The sweet sauce, coupled with the obvious garlic aroma of the barbecue, is great when fried.

"I seem to be hungry too!" Lynch gave the plate to Anna, who thanked her and took a small bite.

The President looked at the butler, who looked at his watch and made a small gesture that only they knew. In short, the butler told the President that it was already past six o'clock.

Federal people are accustomed to eating after seven o'clock and before eight o'clock. This is because most factories will work after six o'clock, and more than half of the factories will not get off work until seven o'clock.

Workers often get home at half past seven, so they have dinner later.

As for why they finish eating before eight o'clock, it is because at eight o'clock these ordinary working class people have already sat in front of the TV on time.

The TV will start playing various exciting programs at eight o'clock, all kinds!

There are twenty-four hours in a day, six to eight hours of which belong to sleep, more than ten hours to work, and two hours to rest.

The time that truly belongs to ordinary people and can be used at will is probably only three or four hours.

And this is precisely the most exciting time period of federal television entertainment. No one wants to miss it unless they have a reason to miss it.

As for why ordinary people must abide by such time rules, why should rich people or upper class people also abide by it?

In fact, it's very simple. They have to watch those people finish their work for the day and squeeze out their value for the day before they can get off work.

Strictly speaking, capitalists work harder than workers. Workers only need to work, while capitalists have to distinguish who is lazy and who is not paying attention. Well, this is a joke.

There are many reasons why people prefer to eat later, but it is not impossible to eat earlier.

"Perhaps we do need to eat something, if you would like!"

Mr. President is very wise, and every proposal he makes can often meet the needs of the vast majority of people. When he said this, everyone said that they were indeed hungry and thanked Mr. President for his proposal.

There is no need to stand up, let alone go out, just soak in the hot spring, and the top-quality steaks and side dishes are placed on floating trays in front of everyone.

It was a very special dinner where everyone talked about simple things, like the weather, some interesting things that had happened recently, like... current events.

"I heard that Ms. Tracey is going to set up a foundation to help school-age children who need to go to school..."

Mr. President started another topic, and people followed him one after another.

The education reform plan has been almost completely finalized. As long as a president has ideas and wants to leave his own page in history, he will definitely not be satisfied with the status quo.

He doesn't dare to touch social welfare security reform and medical reform. Anyone who touches it will be shattered to pieces. At least he doesn't dare to touch it at this stage.

The only thing that could make him different from his predecessors and predecessors might be less sensitive education reforms.

Just because civilian children have more opportunities to go to school does not mean that all the hard work they put in during schooling will be rewarded. You must know that in the Federation, it is always the capitalists who recruit all kinds of employees.

Who can serve the capitalists better does not depend on how much knowledge this person has that everyone has, but who the capitalists want to exploit.

Whoever the capitalists want to exploit can have a decent job, unless a person's knowledge is so advanced that even the capitalists have to give in.

Moreover, the essence of education groups is "association", not "knowledge", just like the Holy Peace Society.

They will not allow a civilian to join the Holy Peace Society just because they go to college. People who were able to join the Holy Peace Society in the past are still eligible to join the Holy Peace Society. People who were not eligible to join the Holy Peace Society before will not be able to join the Holy Peace Society in the future.

They still cannot enjoy the benefits brought by the "secret society", so the education reform will not touch the core interests of the education group.

On the contrary, because more people have the qualifications for further education, the interests of the education group will not be damaged, but will gain more.

Why did they say no?

Publishing groups that play an important role in education groups now have more people buying their books because they are in college, which makes the books they publish sell better. Why should they refuse?

Mr. President chose a good position to play the first reform card. This move is very beautiful. The common people who can never see the truth clearly will thank Mr. President for being able to bear heavy student loans in the future!

They actually don't know that their children going to college are not much different from going to high school now. They will not get better jobs as a result, but their families will have to bear heavier debts.

At the beginning of Mr. President's words, everyone was expressing their own opinions. Maybe Lynch was more active just now and was silent now, so Mr. President took the initiative to ask him.

"I heard that the little girl Catherine is also helping Ms. Tracy do things. She is also very supportive of seeking more rights for women to go to school. Maybe there is something about you that I don't know?"

Lynch nodded, "Of course, Mr. President!"

Mr. President now regards education reform as an important bargaining chip for his re-election. Lynch will definitely not say that this is a fucking false reform. It is not flattering and will not change anything.

He sorted out his thoughts and said, "Blackstone Security previously established a foundation to provide necessary educational assistance to the families of some employees who sacrificed their lives."

“So far we have helped sixty-three children have the right to continue attending school after losing their father.”

"So I want to try to set up a new company in Sabine City. It doesn't have much business. The core content is to provide help to all students who want to go further in knowledge."

"Wealth, connections, and even letters of recommendation, as long as they really want to learn and really want to change their destiny through learning, I will help them!"

"In addition to these, I also plan to donate to two universities..." Lynch took a glass of wine with ice cubes from the floating boat.

This was in stark contrast to him soaking in hot water.

"Everyone knows that I can't afford to go to college because of poverty. My wish is actually very simple, that is, no more young people who want to go to college will be hindered from studying because of poverty!"

The President couldn't help but applaud Lynch's words, "Pure and noble ideals!"
