Blackstone Code

The Glendon family is also somewhat famous in the history of the Federation, because their family has produced three presidents.

The first president brought stable and reliable political influence to the family. A few generations later, during the elder Glendon era, he once again successfully won the election and became president.

Incredibly, his son subsequently ran for office, a period that became known as "Glendon Time."

Perhaps the development of the Federation did not make leaps and bounds during the "Glendon Time" period, but there was no obvious decline and it always remained stable.

Stability means mediocrity in every sense of the word, but this was a good thing for the Federation at that time.

In fact, it sounds very far away, but in fact it was more than ten years ago.

At this time, the old Glendon was already ninety-four years old, and this "little Glendon" who was not young at all was already seventy-five years old.

There are also two "old bones" in the entire team, both in their eighties and presidents of the "Glendon Time" period.

There are rumors that little Glendon is seeking to prepare for the emergence of a fourth president in his family, and this is why he and his old father have to go out to work.

Capitalists and political bargaining chips will not fall into someone's pocket for no reason. If you don't participate in it and actively seek these benefits for yourself, no one will pay attention to you, and no one will give these to you...

When they entertained the idea of ​​Lynch's visit, they immediately agreed.

Although the current situation of Mr. President is very bad, top-level politicians can understand that Mr. President was actually forced to express his position, and the bipartisan committee will definitely give him some compensation in the future.

Just like the son of the former president, who is now a diplomatic ambassador, when the right time comes and the conservative candidate wins the election, he will most likely be transferred back to the country to serve as the first minister of the Department of International Affairs.

So he can use this job as a springboard to jump into Congress and become a senator, or, like his father, run for office and become the president of the federation.

This is compensation!

The core of politics is transactions and compromises. If Mr. President wants to confront the Duncan family head-on for the positions of the top leaders of the two parties, then he will inevitably have other arrangements after he steps down.

His political influence will not be lost just because he steps down. With Lynch's support, Mr. President is actually not an "unlikeable" guy now.

It's just that they were a little confused about Lynch's visit...

"Does our president still want to seek re-election under such circumstances?" Little Glendon rubbed his eyes, put on his glasses again, and read some newspapers on the table.

Every election year, these campaign teams begin to be formed and then join this grand occasion.

Their original intention is to help conservative candidates run for president. In addition to their previous political stance, the more important reason is that they believe that the conservative party will have a greater chance of coming to power.

When people were driving a car on a main road and faced an intersection, they chose the one on the left and ended up in a traffic jam.

They will be extremely upset about why they didn't choose the one on the right?

The next time they have to make a choice, something in their subconscious will take over and make them more likely to choose the right side of the road.

Voters are actually the same.

If the Conservative Party doesn't work, then choose the Progressive Party.

The Progressive Party is not doing very well, so choose the Conservative Party.

The federal presidential election keeps wandering in this cycle. Coupled with the interference of capital power, sometimes the election can be predicted!

Old Glendon is too old, but he is in good spirits. This is the benefit of the dual blessing of power and wealth.

He cannot walk now, his body cannot support him to move on his own, and he can only sit in a wheelchair.

At the same time, he also wears sunglasses, because his eyes are aging, and strong light sources will cause terrible damage to his eyes, and even cause him to go blind.

Even so, his spirit is still very good.

The best medical team in the federation is serving him to ensure that he can live for at least another five years. This is what his private medical team leader said.

They have tried some special medicines in Nagaril, which can effectively slow down organ failure. They have started injecting him with very good results.

As for the price and raw materials of this special medicine, he never asked.

If you don't ask, there won't be any burden.

The old man pursed his lips and said, "It is also allowed for Trueman. I heard that they nominated Trueman as the second candidate at the party committee."

The other team members were thoughtful, and little Glendon chuckled and shook his head, "It's a good idea, but it's too naive."

"Electing a president is not something you can do with just a little money. It requires a lot of money, and Lynch may not be able to sustain it..."

At this time, the fate of the shipping group and the military-industrial group has not yet been revealed. Lynch may be the only one who clearly sides with Mr. Trueman.

This is also the reason why they are not very optimistic about Mr. Trueman's candidacy. His "support team" is really too thin.

While they were talking, the housekeeper came over and told everyone that Lin Qi had arrived, and then they met Lin Qi in the living room.

"I'm very stressed!" Lynch was dressed very appropriately, with a clean smile on his face. He was sitting on the sofa, not restrained at all, but looking very relaxed.

His eyes swept over the people around him and he said with a smile, "Every gentleman in this room has given to the Federation, but I am the only one who keeps asking for it!"

Little Glendon laughed twice. It wasn't that Lynch didn't say it well enough, but... he felt that Lynch was acting a bit forcefully.

Indeed, the lowest-ranking person in this room is also a member of the House of Representatives. The others are either senators or governors and presidents. Their contribution to the success of the federation is indeed due to them.

But... when Lynch said these words, he couldn't feel his humility, which somewhat compromised the effect of these words.

But at the same time, the attitude he showed gave people some different feelings.

This young man is in some trouble!

At this time, Blackstone Capital behind Lynch has begun to take shape. He no longer needs to be as cautious as before. The capital game in capital society is so simple and transparent.

As long as your actions are consistent with your values, then no matter what you do, you can be forgiven!

"Mr. Lynch, we are very old and don't have many working hours every day. Why don't we just start the conversation between us?"

Old Glendon said this, and he is the only one qualified to say this here.

Lynch looked at the age spots covering almost half of his face and nodded slightly, "Mr. Trueman plans to run for office. We have just set up a campaign office, and we still lack an experienced team..."

When Lynch said this, little Glendon glanced at the other person, who stood up and interrupted him, "Sorry, we already have intentions!"

He is rejecting Lynch's invitation. After all, in their view, the probability of Trueman winning is very low, which is not cost-effective for them.

Especially Mr. Glendon, he may not be able to survive until the next election. This may be the last election he participates in. He has to squeeze out all his value!

He still has some weight, and some politicians now have benefited from him. For example, the chairman of the Progressive Party Committee, a short old man, once received help from Old Glendon.

Now he has to drain his own value and transfer it to the younger people in the family to pave the way for them.

Lynch and Trueman are not the best choices, so naturally no one wants to waste more words.

At this time, everyone was looking at Lynch. According to the "script", Lynch should now express regret and then stand up to leave.

But Lynch didn't do that. He still sat on the sofa so naturally and relaxed, and asked casually, "Do you know who introduced me here?"

Little Glendon frowned, glanced at his father, and then asked, "Do I know him?"

When the name "Peleeus" came out of Lynch's mouth, the entire living room fell silent.

Some young people and young politicians don't understand who Peleus is, but they, who have seen through the federal political arena, know it very well.

There are political families in politics, and there are capital families in capital, so naturally the military also has military families!

Soldier is a very common and simple title. A corporal can be a soldier, and a lieutenant general can also be a soldier!

Behind Peleus is the attitude of the military. There are even rumors that the federal military still does not have a true marshal and is just waiting for Peleus.

He is very likely to be the first true marshal in the history of the Federation, and he is the only one who holds the "password" to become a marshal.

The military supports Mr. Trueman, which has to be treated with caution.

The former senator who interrupted Lynch just now smiled and apologized to Lynch, "Sorry, I shouldn't have interrupted you."

Lin Qi still sat there and raised his eyebrows, "I forgive you."

After a brief dull moment, the air in the room seemed to begin to move, and old Mr. Glendon made a request for a phone call.

He definitely wanted to seek verification, and Lynch would naturally not refuse his request.

This is also the reason why Lynch did not leave. Old Glendon planned to "go all out", so he was the most suitable.

Even though these people have long been away from the current political arena, their influence and personal connections have not been compromised at all.

They may not be able to run away on their own, but when someone becomes "trouble", they can often win some people into their camp with just a phone call.

Coupled with old Mr. Glendon's attitude of risking everything, this is what Mr. Lynch and Mr. Trueman need!
