Blackstone Code

On Wednesday, Lynch heard the news.

The nephew of the Emperor Pengeo also came to the Federation. He came to the Federation for tourism.

I know this news because a surveillance team has been set up within the Security Committee to closely monitor this guy.

In addition, Lynch also learned about a semi-public confidential incident.

Many federal capitalists are in close contact with Pendio's negotiating delegation.

At present, intelligence and security agencies such as the Security Council and the Department of Homeland Security have obtained some of their conversations, but they always feel a bit funny.

Because these capitalists are not selling out national interests, but trying every means to get the Pengeo people to agree to some of the requirements set by the federal government.

It seems that they are working hard for negotiation and for the Federation, but many people know what they want - an armistice.

The United Development Corporation has handed over to the federal government the rights they previously held regarding the Nagalir tariff.

The federal government has also given some compensation. It seems that the company has not continued to discuss this issue in depth, but everyone knows it.

Federal compensation will never compare to tariff rights.

But they had no choice. It was still a war, and a signed order from the president could disband the United Development Company on the spot. They could only agree with the decision above and transfer their rights.

Not only the United Development Company, but many companies have been harmed by the policies implemented by the Presidential Palace in the past few years!

They are angry but dare not show it because a president in war has no weaknesses.

Now is a good opportunity.

As long as the Penteo people can quickly sign a treaty and bilateral relations return to peace, Mr. Trueman's privileges will be withdrawn.

The Presidential Palace knew about this and knew that the capitalists were secretly contacting the Pengeo people to seduce them or put pressure on them, hoping that they would agree to the federal government's requirements.

But the presidential palace, and Mr. Trueman in particular, said nothing.

For him, it would be a good thing for the federation at least if the capitalists could get the Pengeos to agree to inappropriate terms.

This can greatly limit Pengeo's redevelopment after the war, making it unable to catch up with the Federation and no longer able to threaten the world.

The federal government alone may not be able to negotiate, but with the participation of capitalists, this matter may not be possible.

Lynch made some inquiries and found out that many people were doing it.

He did not speak to Mr. Trueman, nor did he join in. He just stood aside and watched, watching everything unfold.

It seems like something has been done, and yet it seems like nothing has been done.

"...Don't tell me what ifs, there are no ifs in what we are talking about now!"

The chairman of the United Development Corporation's board of directors sat in the room, opposite two young men.

But the identities of these two people are very special.

Sitting on the left is the nephew of Emperor Pengeo. He does not have any specific position, but he is deeply trusted by Emperor Pengeo!

He even trusted his nephew more than his own son!

There were some rumors in the early years that this nephew was actually the child of Emperor Pengeo and his brother's wife. He had an affair with that woman and then gave birth to the child.

However, no one continued to spread this statement soon. All the people who discussed this matter in private either disappeared or died unexpectedly.

People gradually began to believe that this was a rumor!

The other man was His Majesty's clerk, a confidant of confidants, and was said to be a very clever and excellent man.

At this time they were invited to sit here and talk about some things in the negotiation.

The two of them maintained their demeanor, but the chairman of the board of directors of the United Development Company became a little impatient.

After talking for more than an hour, all the questions and answers were ambiguous, which made him a little dissatisfied.

His temper wasn't that good either. "Let me say it one last time. If no further agreement is reached between us, this will be the last time we meet."

"You should know that there are no better conditions than ours."

The board of directors and major shareholders had conducted a secret consultation before, and the result was that the company was willing to show some sincerity to promote the cause of peace.

If the Pengeo government can agree to the federal government's request and sign a strategic development agreement with the company.

Then after the war, the joint development company will support Pengeo with part of the funds and part of the technology.

At the same time, the United Development Company will build a factory in Penjiao, ensuring at least 20,000 jobs.

It is even possible to transfer some technologies.

But there is a premise, which is to end the negotiations as soon as possible.

There are some rumors circulating in the presidential palace, saying that the international war has reached its final stage, and Mr. Trueman will focus on the country.

The education reform and social security system reform he once proposed must be further strengthened and improved, and some new amendments must be added to the Anti-Monopoly Law.

This makes many capitalists feel that there is a bad mood spreading. Let alone education reform, the cake of the real education group cannot be touched.

However, social system reform will be more troublesome. Nowadays, large companies are affected by the reform of the social security system and have to allocate more funds as corporate severance funds and deposits than before.

In addition, they also have to bear part of the workers’ pension expenses. It is said that Mr. Trueman also hopes that the company will bear part of the medical expenses!

Pensions essentially come from the employees themselves.

They invest their money into the company, and the company grows at an annual interest rate of 5% until these people retire.

The money will eventually be paid to these employees in installments.

The enterprise does not suffer a loss, and the interest rate of 5% is much lower than that of a direct loan, but the problem is that the money cannot be used casually.

At the same time, corporate accounts must also be controlled.

These are things that companies are not willing to bear, but at least they will not be too opposed to it because they themselves have benefits.

But once companies have to bear part of their employees' medical insurance, this is something they can't afford.

Medical care is different from pension insurance. Pension insurance is essentially an investment by employees into the company, and the company returns the money to the employees at a lower rate of return.

But for medical care, they pay a small amount of money. If the employees don't get sick, it's fine.

Once you get sick, you may spend several times the amount paid by the employee.

In addition, there are some other things that current companies are extremely unwilling to bear.

And no one knows what other fantastic ideas Mr. President will have next!

It is the common wish of all capitalists at present to prevent him from continuing to mess around.

The nephew of His Majesty the Emperor glanced at the secretary beside him and nodded slightly, "I agree in principle with the conditions you proposed, but we must have a more detailed contract."

"We essentially agree that the war should end here, but some of the terms proposed by the federal government are too harsh."

"It's not that we don't want to stop the war, nor that we don't want to negotiate peace, it's simply that the federal government is hindering the arrival of peace!"

"Instead of you talking loudly to us here, why not save your energy and go talk to your president!"

He paused as he spoke, and then said pointedly, "Of course, things are never absolute. If you can help us get some technology, those issues on which we still have differences will not be a problem!"

The chairman of the board of directors frowned. He knew that the other party wanted the lion to open his mouth, but he still asked patiently, "What technology do you want?"

"Design drawings and technology of Blackstone Aviation's latest generation fighter jet!"

"If you can get this, I can make the decision and immediately agree to all unequal treaties proposed by the federal government!"

The thing that consumed Pentio's wealth fastest during the war was not the soldiers' wages or their weapons, but the airplanes!

Aircraft have now become an absolute force dominating the battlefield. In this war, both sides invested a total of more than 100,000 aircraft!

But now the total number of aircraft, especially fighter jets, still in service on both sides is less than 30,000.

Pengeo has records of being shot down, and more than 55,000 aircraft have been lost and scrapped.

The Federation lost approximately 20,000 aircraft.

The price of Pengeo's aircraft is relatively low, but even so, the military expenditures consumed on the aircraft alone exceed about 20 billion federal soles.

Because the selling price of aircraft is higher, the Federation has spent more than 15 billion on military expenditures.

If it were not for the lower production price of Pengeo's aircraft, they would have lost more than 60 billion based on the federal selling price.

This was the key incentive that crushed Pengjiao's finances.

If you add in the sea fortress and later tanks, it is actually a miracle that they can survive until now!

In fact, the losses suffered by both parties on the plane also reflected a fact from the side -

That is the performance of the Federation's aircraft, which always outweighs the performance of Pengeo's aircraft.

In order to obtain the core data and design of Blackstone Aviation, they also tried to kidnap Lynch, although they were unsuccessful in the end.

This war made both sides, and even the whole world, aware of the importance of air supremacy. If you can get the data and design drawings of Blackstone Aviation's latest aircraft, as well as relevant technical papers.

They can agree to all the current requests made by the Federation.

The chairman of the board of directors hesitated for a moment. He did not immediately agree or object. After a while, he said, "I need to think about this matter."

The emperor's nephew also nodded in agreement, "Of course, we are not in a hurry. We will be notified when there is good news."

A little later, the chairman of the board of directors called Lynch and asked him to meet.

Lynch asked him to come directly to his home at a later time.
