Blackstone Code

The day of negotiations was postponed for another two days. As for why, not many people know.

Seeing that the war is really coming to an end, the congressmen who have been silent for a long time are starting to move around more frequently.

On the night Lynch met Mr. Trueman, he was invited to a small drinks party.

There were about thirty people in total, more than half of whom were members of Congress, and then five senators, plus some cadres from the Progressive Party.

Some of them are newcomers.

When Mr. Lynch and Mr. Trueman tormented members of Congress before, many new people were replaced.

Some are political deals, and some are internal promotions, but no matter what, neither Lynch nor Mr. Trueman will give too many benefits to others.

This can be regarded as a small meeting, and it can also be regarded as a meeting before Congress restarts.

In this long process, the representatives will always surround the senators, and the senators will always surround Lynch.

"I recently heard that a new committee is being formed, with approximately nine senators and at least twenty-five representatives!"

Senator Langdon's expression was slightly... proud, or not quite arrogant.

As his status in the Congress gets higher and higher, he can enjoy more and more benefits and benefits.

This is a whole new world, one that he could not have imagined or seen when he was still thinking about whether he could be the mayor or the governor.

Everyone's expressions were very serious. The committee of seven senators is the largest committee that has existed for a long time in Congress, and these committees have great powers.

For example, the Appropriations Committee, the Budget Committee, the Industry Committee, etc.

People's eyes were focused, including Lynch's, and Senator Langdon quietly revealed the information he knew.

In fact, it doesn't matter if he doesn't whisper, because we are all our own people here.

But there’s something wonderful about delivering a message quietly, which increases the recipient’s sense of recognition of the message itself.

"Nagalir Committee..."

He said a name, and everyone's expression was different.

If it is true that a committee dedicated to managing the daily affairs of Nagalier is to be established, this means that the federation will strengthen its rule over Nagalier.

In other words, the federal government no longer conceals their intentions internally regarding the fact that Nagaril is being ruled!

This is a big deal!

At the same time, the people around him became jealous!

A committee that manages a country has too much power, right? !

There was also some movement in Lynch's expression, which may be the result of the compromise between the United Development Company and the federal government.

"We have to get at least one spot!"

Lynch made the decision.

According to the current forty-three senators in the federation, excluding the speaker, there are nine senator seats, which is equivalent to approximately one out of four people who can participate.

So all in all, at least one person here can enter this committee and hold an important position.

But average is always the most unfair average. It's like there are ten eggs in one basket and nothing in the other nine baskets. On average, there is one egg in each basket.

Funny, cheesy, and boring.

That's average and mean.

Senator Langdon was very positive, "I will implement it as soon as possible, and there may be some adjustments to our work next..."

He currently has two jobs. If he transfers to the Nagalir Daily Affairs Advisory Committee, the two committee jobs in his hands will definitely be handed over.

At least one of the busier ones should be handed over, and his main focus should be on this big project.

The transferred work will either be handed over to other people here, or it will be traded away as a political bargaining chip.

Congress is the highest political stage in the Federation, and it is also the largest free trading market in the Federation!

Everything is clearly priced, and if you want to get something from others, you must pay according to the rules.

Lynch's response was quick, "Money is not an issue."

"As for the others, I will make appropriate arrangements when you need me."

When Lynch invested 1.5 billion in Slem, everyone knew that money was no longer a problem for him, and it could no longer be a problem.

In fact, many people are frightened by this number, especially the middle and lower classes of society.

Anyone who knows a little bit about these things will know that this 1.5 billion is not a one-time payment, and it will not even be paid in full in the end!

For example, now, Lynch has sold about 200 million shares, and his actual investment in Slem has only been 10 million.

In other words, he made 200 million without spending any money, and then invested 10 million as start-up capital.

If it works well, he might be able to build the entire project with at most one or two hundred million dollars invested.

Moreover, the money I invested was invested at a later stage.

If he does it right, he can get it done without even spending any of his own money!

Lynch's financial support gave Langdon the confidence. In fact, many times, members of Congress gave the impression that spending money could not solve the problem simply because they did not spend enough money.

Senators like Lynch are supported by hundreds of thousands of people a year. How can they resist?

Do not make jokes!

This is actually a very interesting phenomenon. The federal government keeps a close eye on job-related crimes, but is very lax in its selection.

It is possible that a low-level staff member will go to jail because of improper procedures.

But the members of Congress pocket tens of thousands and hundreds of thousands every year, and no one ever thinks there is anything wrong with this!

In the end, everyone chatted about the time they were exposed to the state of war, and then they had fun for a while and gradually dispersed.

There is still at least half a year, and at most a year. I have been waiting patiently for the past few years. There is no reason why I can't wait for the last period of time.

Lynch received the information from Senator Langdon and quickly received feedback from the United Development Corporation's board of directors.

The compromise between the Joint Development Corporation and the federal government on the transfer of tariff rights was for the federal government to establish a committee in Congress similar to that of the Joint Development Corporation.

It is responsible for taking over all the prerogatives that should belong to the government from the United Development Company. The commercial business is still the responsibility of the United Development Company itself.

Congress, in turn, administers these powers through the Nagalir Daily Affairs Advisory Committee.

It is said to be a consultant, but in fact it is the final decision-making unit.

This would be an outcome acceptable to both parties and would allow JDC to find a way to get some of their political spokesmen on the committee.

From a side perspective, this also means that they still control these rights, but it is relatively weaker than before.

In addition, the federal government has also gained control of these powers and no longer needs to regret that it gave too many benefits to the company when it signed the agreement.

For a strong regime, during the period of rising power, centralization is bound to happen!

It's just that this news is still in the preparatory stage, so neither the United Development Company, the Presidential Palace, nor the Congress have announced it to the outside world.

Lynch knew the news in advance and had enough time to prepare to win a spot.

In early mid-July, on July 12th, the Pengeo delegation arrived in Bupen.

This is also the first time that the Pengeo nobles have set foot in the Federation in person, and the entire dock is full of people!

The people were not expressing their welcome, but their dissatisfaction with the war, with the Penteo people!

Although there was no phenomenon of smashing tomatoes and rotten eggs, people's cordial greetings also made the expressions of the Pengeo delegation become very ugly.

No one likes to be cursed by countless people as soon as they get off the boat!

This time, in addition to the Foreign Minister, the Undersecretary of the Army and two imperial generals also came together as military attachés.

In addition to protecting the division, they also observed the war potential of the Federation.

If the Federation's war potential is almost reached, they can demand more and be tougher in negotiations.

Along the way, the architectural style displayed by the federal liberal culture, which is completely different from Penjiao's social culture, made the group feel particularly fresh.

Without the constraints of class and hierarchy, everything from people's mental outlook to the style of architecture has its own expression.

It’s something so special that words can’t describe it.

If I had to describe it harshly, maybe there is some sweet smell of toast in the air?

When entering the Bupen Hotel, some family members of the fallen soldiers outside the hotel held up various signs filled with expletives and looked at the convoy in silence.

The Foreign Secretary couldn't bear it any longer. He asked the accompanying federal diplomats, "Don't you care about them?"

"This is not an ordinary negotiation. If the negotiation cannot start smoothly because of these people, they should bear the responsibility!"

The Commonwealth diplomat behaved appropriately and quoted a charter quote to refute the idea of ​​​​Penteio's diplomat.

"It is a fundamental right granted to every Commonwealth person by the Charter to express one's will on any occasion."

"They didn't hurt anyone, and they didn't indicate who they were cursing. We can't expel them. This is their freedom!"

The diplomat raised his chin slightly, a little arrogantly.

Yes, this is the Federation, freedom, equality...

As for the rest?

Sorry, it’s not mentioned in the charter!

When entering the hall, the members of the delegation suddenly stopped because they spotted another delegation, a delegation from a country that had been destroyed by Pengeo.

They just appeared here openly, which had to make them start to guess that the federal people were planning something bad!

Outside the hotel, the crowd of people protesting became larger. News reporters’ interviews and camera shots eventually turned into the evening news.

And this also greatly promotes the response of some special causes, such as charity.
