Blackstone Code

Many of the guests invited to Lynch's birthday party could not stay very long, such as Mr. Trueman and the short Progressive Party Committee Chairman.

They all have a lot of work to do, and being able to come over and chat with Lynch, say a few words to the others, and have a glass of wine has compressed time again and again.

Mr. Trueman left first. It was war time and his work was more intense.

Then came the Chairman of the Progressive Party Committee, who had another invitation to attend.

And then some others.

In the end, most of the people who stayed were capitalists and parliamentarians.

Members of Congress would be idle if they did not serve as members of various committees with real power.

They don't have much power in their hands, and they don't have anything to be specifically responsible for. It seems like they can have a hand in everything, have a say in everything, and have control over everything.

But in fact, they can't control anything.

This is a process that most members of Congress must go through when they first join Congress. No one will hold great power as soon as they come in, even if the governor comes in. He has to dry out before he starts to hold power.

Every member's seat is a compromise after layers of political struggles. Some people have overdrawn all their political capital in order to enter Congress. After they get in, if they want to do something, they have to rely on themselves.

Senator Langdon and other congressmen who belong to Lynch's circle stood in a corner of the lawn. Lynch's birthday dinner tonight was equally exciting for them!

Here, they saw the top figures in the federal political ecology!

Many people think that members of Congress and the president are the end of politicians. In fact, this is not the case, at least not entirely.

How can you say that you are at the top of the federal political arena without becoming the whip of the ruling party or the chairman of a committee of the ruling party or a non-ruling party?

They are still a short distance away from here.

And this is exactly what excites them. Once you reach the status of a member of Congress, it is already very difficult to improve.

In the inherent impression of federal people, it seems that everything in the federation is free and...elected by the people, but this does not include the top leaders of various party committees.

The power in the hands of these people is more like inherited from the feudal system!

Whose position will be replaced by whom? They will not consider letting the committee elect them. Instead, the senior management will directly exchange opinions and finally establish the list directly.

It's like someone once asked a question

"Why did we only elect the president and not let us elect the rest of the cabinet?"

Even in the freest country, power cannot be unlimited!

Being able to get in touch with these top people here in Lynch, then they may be able to truly enter the top level in the future, which is a good thing.

They were discussing some exciting things and some work-related matters.

As for other capitalists, they need to stay until the end. After all, everyone left before Lynch's birthday dinner was over, and everyone would not look good.

At this time, Mr. Patu finally had the opportunity to approach Lynch. He had been waiting for more than an hour.

Of course, he also noticed the ring on Lynch's hand, which made his expression a little weird and a little jealous.

But he did a good job of covering up his momentary expression to make himself look sincere.

"You invited a lot of big names to your birthday this time."

The calm tone did not seem to show any awe for those big shots. In fact, Mr. Patu kept his awe in his heart.

Like most capitalists, he is unwilling to show it.

The collapse of the Duncan family was not long ago. The reason why this ruler-like family collapsed was not because it was too arrogant.

But the senior committee members of the two parties believe that the Duncan family has touched something they should not touch, the voting rights of Congress.

So, the Duncan family became a thing of the past.

Throughout the not-so-long history of the Federation, it is actually a scene of cooperation and struggle between capitalists and politicians.

In this process, capitalists use their greater influence than politicians to tilt the society to the side of the capitalists.

People envy, envy, respect, and fear capitalists, but few people use these emotions to express themselves toward politicians.

It seems that the people of the Federation have learned to find fault with politicians and give them trouble.

This is what capital society has been transformed into by capitalists during its development process.

The capitalists thought they had the situation under control, but the facts about the Duncan family told all capitalists that they did not.

The "I can" they think is only "I can" with the permission of the top leaders of the two parties. This is limited freedom, not unlimited freedom.

This once again allowed the federal capitalists to re-understand the federal political arena, and they were also in awe of the real big figures in today's political arena.

Not everyone can control the vast resources of this country like the Duncan family.

But even so, they still fell...

Lynch was very close to these people. Mr. Pattu had something that he couldn't figure out, so his expression was very stable.

Lynch smiled, "I like to make friends."

Both of them laughed twice, what a fucking liar!

Mr. Patu feels that he also likes to make friends, but he and the chairman of the Progressive Party Committee can only nod and say hello, let alone invite each other to a birthday dinner or something.

Even if he died, the Chairman of the Progressive Party Committee would not come to his funeral to express his remembrance of this "friend".

This is obviously not something that can be achieved just by "liking to make friends", but he has not considered getting Lynch to say anything valuable.

There was a two-second blank after the slightly awkward laugh, and then Mr. Pattu spoke of his thoughts.

"Are you familiar with those nobles?" He was referring to the large and small nobles who had immigrated from Gefra.

Originally, being the only noble in the Federation made him feel a little lonely, but suddenly so many nobles came, and he realized that this was a good opportunity to clear the family's name.

Many people say that the bloodline of the Ajin'er family is impure, and that their ancestors were just cowards who served the nobles.

It was their ancestors who murdered nobles and then pretended to be exiled nobles, and this is how the Akinle family came into existence.

There are many statements like this, and all of them question the authenticity of the aristocratic status of the Arkin family.

Now that he has the opportunity to make those rumors a thing of the past, he will definitely pay more attention.

As for the Chairman of the Progressive Party Committee or something like that, he didn't really care.

He is still the president of Xingmengdie, and he can still be there for at least seven or eight years or even ten years.

Even if he leaves that position in the future, he will still be a member of the board of directors and an important shareholder of the group company.

If the consortium does not fall or suffer a fatal blow, he does not need to worry about the top federal politicians taking action against them.

This attack on the Duncan family has actually had a great impact on society, with a large number of unemployed people, if it were not for the federal government's promotion of the "contracting" system.

Let those employees spend their own money to buy their own companies, and then have the government assign them orders to ensure their production and operations. Now society would be in chaos.

Therefore, although Mr. Patu was in awe of those people, he was not too cold. He just wanted to get in touch with these nobles.

Lynch nodded naturally, "You want to talk to them?"

Mr. Patu did not hide his inner thoughts, "Yes, they are not familiar with this place. It is my responsibility to make them familiar with everything here."

Lynch looked at Mr. Patu, and Mr. Patu looked sincere, as if what he said was true.

In fact, Lynch has long seen through Mr. Patu's poor acting skills. The identity of the nobles is only part of it. These Gefra nobles came with a lot of wealth.

They will definitely want to invest, which means there is a lot of wealth waiting for everyone to plunder.

To say plundering is a bit unflattering, it should be said to be carving up.

Lynch has nothing to dislike about this. Making money depends on his ability.

Lynch remained silent and did not say anything immediately. Mr. Pattu appropriately expressed his willingness to release some benefits.

For example, if some cooperation can be negotiated, he is willing to give Lynch some shares for free as a thank you for his matchmaking.

Then Mr. Pattu got a business card he wanted, and by the way, he also asked Lynch to borrow some people.

Like cooks, etc., he will need these people when he goes to receive those nobles...

The birthday dinner didn't end until after nine o'clock in the evening. After seeing off the last guest, Lynch asked Catherine to rest first while he went to the study.

As soon as he entered the study, some people in the study stood up.

It's the Brothers Grimm.

Lin Qi raised his hand and gestured for them to sit down.

He then walked to his seat, sat down, and breathed a heavy sigh of relief.

From around three o'clock in the afternoon until now, he has not taken a break and is always standing.

Standing for more than six hours at a stretch and constantly walking back and forth is really exhausting.

At this time, he felt that his whole body was relaxed, and he took out the cigarette case comfortably.

As soon as the cigarette was in his mouth, a young man approached him with a lighter and lit a fire for him.

Taking a puff of cigarette, Lynch looked at the people in the room.

These people are all young, and there is a kind of excitement on their faces that can be seen through at a glance. After all, for their class, they have already achieved the limit of what they can do!

Lynch flicked the ashes from his cigarette, his eyes mainly focused on a young man next to the Brothers Grimm.

He looked very clean, wearing a white shirt, trousers, leather shoes, and a pair of glasses. He looked very clean and tidy.

The first time you see him, you will think that he is a... college student, a very gentle person, and he is also very handsome.

But no matter what characteristics these people have, they all have one thing in common.

That was the look he looked at Lynch.

All filled with adoration!
