Blackstone Code

Senator Langdon called the senator who proposed reform of the military-related committees in front of Lynch. The other party was curious about Senator Langdon's call, but he readily agreed to meet the next day.

In Congress, everyone's camp has been determined early. When people introduce Senator Langdon, they will introduce him as "the Senator of the Progressive Party of such-and-such state."

But everyone's position is changing every moment.

The person on the other end of the phone is a member of the Conservative Party. The current campaign strategy of the Conservative Party in the general election is to focus on domestic and economic construction.

Cutting military spending and reducing active duty troops are all their proposals.

Some people like these things very much. After all, people are selfish. Instead of making strategic arrangements around the world, the money is made by foreigners and capitalists.

Indeed, some people believe that we should focus on domestic development, so that ordinary people can benefit more or less.

This is politics, people-oriented, born for people, but it happens to be above these people!

The next morning, everyone sat together.

The moment Senator Langdon opened the door to Lynch's room, the congressman stood up in shock.

He fastened his buttons, walked over to shake hands with Lynch, and looked at Senator Langdon with some surprise, "I didn't know Mr. Lynch was coming together today."

Senator Langdon explained in passing, "Mr. Lynch is very interested in your proposal, so we came here together."

This makes the MPs who proposed the reform very encouraged!

Lynch's status in the Federation is very special. As one of the seven major banks, his support is more important than the support of ordinary capitalists, and people like Lynch are inherently political.

Coupled with the existence of the York Gang, Lynch is a very influential name even in Congress, standing in the "same row" with very few big shots.

Lynch shook hands with the congressman who proposed the reform and said with a smile, "I heard about your proposal. It's a good starting point. I'm curious why... I didn't support you?"

As the three of them talked, they walked to the sofa and sat down.

The man Lynch was talking about is the current chairman of the Conservative Party Committee, an old politician about the same age as the short old man.

The short old man let go early due to various reasons and is currently working as a consultant in Slem while taking care of his retirement.

But the Conservative committee chairmen are not yet ready to make the decision to delegate power.

This is understandable, after all, it is the supreme power!

It is impossible for anyone to break up so decisively without a little nostalgia.

The congressman who proposed the reform suddenly didn't know what to say when he heard Lynch talking about the chairman of the committee of his own party.

After a while, he sighed softly, "This plan is too radical. The committee believes that it may cause dissatisfaction and backlash from the military, so..."

"You know, sometimes we don't have to do it, but we need to let others know our attitude, that's it!"

Use the proposal to frighten the military and some other members of Congress who have relations with the military, so that some more moderate proposals can be passed.

The Conservative Party's proposal this year is a bit...explosive. They plan to gradually increase the budget for domestic infrastructure in the next four to eight years and accelerate infrastructure construction in various federal regions.

This sounds like...no problem, but please note that this is in the context of international development.

A sudden increase in the domestic infrastructure budget will inevitably reduce external construction investment, and this proposal is in line with the political platform and political goals of the conservative candidates.

If there are no other proposals, it is unlikely that this proposal will be passed. People are like this. If there is only one choice, even if it is not excessive, they feel that they may still be able to "counteroffer".

But if there are multiple options, they will not hesitate to choose the one that has the least impact on them.

Lynch pursed his lips and said, "I am very interested in your proposal and we can support you."

The congressman who proposed the reform was a little surprised, "What do you want me to do?"

Senator Langdon straightened his back at this time, "I need you to support my proposal."

"What about the amendment to the Environmental Protection Law?" The congressman who proposed the reform said the proposal submitted by Senator Langdon in one sentence, and the latter nodded.

He agreed immediately, "That's no problem. I also take the issue of environmental pollution very seriously."

"If necessary, I can serve as an advisor on your committee."

A temporary position means that his name will be added to the committee's special advisor, but he will not have the right to vote.

The value and significance of temporary consultants is to increase the authority of a committee. For example, the Federal Budget Committee and the Appropriations Committee both have many consultants on temporary posts.

These consultants have no voting rights, but because of their status as consultants, they add political influence to these committees, and in turn gain more influence for themselves.

This is a mutual effect, but not all committees will have consultants, only some with relatively heavy authority.

Senator Langdon thanked him for the offer, but did not agree.

He and Lynch had discussed that the Federal Environmental Commission would be a very powerful commission in the future.

As long as this proposal is passed, it can determine whether a factory can continue production or directly shut down for rectification.

Not even the federal government has this power, but this committee will!

The two sides had a lively conversation. Once the member proposing the reform can pass his proposal, he can enter the Military Budget Committee or the Military Committee. This is also a leap for him.

There are about five or six people on his side, and more than ten people on Lynch's side, which together account for almost one-third of Congress.

There are still people who can be persuaded among the remaining ones, and with the addition of the three senators from the Socialist Party, Lynch is confident that all this can be implemented according to his own ideas.

There is almost a week left before the next Congress convenes. During this week, members of Congress move around frequently and exchange information with each other.

At this moment, they seem to have forgotten the divisions between the Progressive Party, the Conservative Party and the Socialist Party. Everyone strictly adheres to the division of interests, not the division of parties!

During this period, the Federal High Court also began to try the manslaughter case of Senator Langdon's son, because the evidence and witnesses were very sufficient.

It was so full that the prosecutor's office didn't even have anything to add, so after the lawyers from both sides selected the jury lists, the case was tried in the High Court.

The judge this time is a senior justice of the Ministry of Justice, who is also a professor and expert in law.

There were still many people present at the public trial, and once again faced the media and the public, it was almost the same as the previous trial. In the end, the senior justice also believed that Senator Langdon's son was not a fully responsible party.

But he did accidentally kill his love rival, and he had the ability to be held criminally responsible, so the original verdict was upheld.

Taking into account Senator Langdon's request not to be granted parole, the High Court also agreed to the request of Senator Langdon's attorney, saying no parole would be allowed for seventy-two months.

This result is surprising, unexpected, but reasonable.

It also made people realize that Senator Langdon is indeed a cruel person.

It was obvious that he would be able to come out in three years, but in the end he had to stay in there for six years!

Senator Langdon’s wife once again had a heated argument with him outside the court, and people also saw an interesting scene——

An ordinary-looking woman chased and beat Senator Langdon.

Many reporters and media recorded this precious scene, and it became hot news in the evening.

While people thanked him for his efforts and contributions to environmental protection, they also laughed at him for his "weakness."

In the afternoon of the next day, news came from the court that the family of the deceased would no longer appeal, the case trial was over, and the next step was compensation and prison sentences.

On the night that Senator Langdon sent his son to prison himself, he threw a party.

It's not quite right to say a party. It should be a party. Councilors belonging to the York Gang gathered together, and Lynch also arrived at the scene.

When everyone arrived, everyone was amazed by the strength of the York Gang.

Senator Langdon stood beside Lynch, and on their left was the former governor of York State at the time, and then the defeated governor who once competed with Ms. Tracy for governor, two senators with little background.

On Lynch's right are four new senators from the five states of Marillo, two congressmen from Catherine's state, and the young president.

The young president is too young to be qualified to participate in politics, but he is scheduled to serve as governor of Mariro Central State after he reaches adulthood, and will later become a member of the Senate of Congress.

Strictly speaking, there are already eleven and a half members of Congress here.

If you include the team leader and his members, as well as the current Senate President and his people, the political resources of Congress that Lynch can mobilize have exceeded one-third of the Senate!

This is a very powerful force and group, and it will continue to expand and become stronger!

Some people here are very familiar with Lynch, and some have only met Lynch once or twice, but everyone is like a family!

It was the first time for the young president to attend such a high-end party, and he was particularly excited. When sitting with these people, he finally felt the special charm of power!

He was very fascinated by the power that could determine the life or death of others!

From the beginning of the second half, the party became...ambiguous.

Each congressman wore a mask, and in front of them was a large group of tall and beautiful girls in their late teens.

These girls come from all over the world and it is their job to make all their guests have a great night.

Money, politics, sex, will never be separated!
