Blackstone Code

"Young men, you can come over and dine!"

The first lady brought the last dish to the table and immediately called the "boys" over. This very informal title can actually bring them closer to each other.

At the same time she called their daughter out of the room.

Connor's son is still working out of town and will only come back during the Chinese New Year, so he will not appear at today's dinner.

Moreover, he and Lin Qi had met and got to know each other before, so there was no need to rush back.

"A very sumptuous dinner, thank you for your hospitality, madam." Lynch praised the dinner dishes and thanked the hostess for her efforts.

Although he also knew that these dishes were all semi-finished products that the cooks stopped at the last step, but at least she was involved, right?

Even if it's just boiling them or putting in ingredients that weren't put in.

After thanking God, who actually had no effect, for giving them a sumptuous dinner, everyone began to eat.

Connor was not a devout believer, but as the federal population continued to expand, "religious socialization" became a very convenient bridge between immigrants and "natives", and the number of believers began to increase.

There used to be many Federation believers, but now there are even more.

Believers who go to church have no problem with their faith and piety, and they are also willing to help immigrant believers who cannot integrate into society to integrate into society.

Therefore, in the current federal society, if immigrants want to initially integrate into local life, it is best for the whole family to go to church and practice religion.

It doesn't matter what they believed before, as long as they believe in God now and express to other believers that they can't fit in here.

Someone will help them.

This method is very effective and cost-effective.

The only cost may be to get up early on Sundays, but other than that they don't have to spend a penny and can occasionally get something during the sermon.

So for the sake of votes, Connor also had to show his faith.

Before he became president, he would only thank money for eating delicious food, but now, he thanks God every day.

The moment the food entered his mouth, Lynch knew roughly where these cooks came from - Gaevra.

In the upper class society, it is a very honorable thing to hire a cook from Gefra to cook for the nobles. Although there is a tendency of the chefs from Gefra to become common now, people just believe this.

Eating delicious food and chatting, there is no serious content, and it is not suitable for serious content.

"Speaking of which...Lin Qi, there is something I want to talk to you about."

When she was almost done eating, the first lady spoke under her daughter's eyes.

In response to the first lady's request, Lynch sat down to express her attitude, "Please say it."

Connor was on the side, his hands clasped together into fists against his chin, obviously he also knew about this.

The first lady glanced at her daughter and showed a somewhat "embarrassed" expression, "It's her, she... I really don't know how to speak, Connor, you should do it!"

Connor said with a smile, "You don't need to feel embarrassed about our relationship with Lynch..." He said and looked at Lynch, "My daughter wants to be a star."

Lynch had heard that she had a career of her own, and was a little surprised that she suddenly changed her career, but he did not refuse.

"Movie star, or singer?"

The girl said seriously, "I want to act in a movie."

Lynch was a little curious, "Can you tell me why?"

He didn't know much about Connor's daughter. They met once when they were at Connor's villa last time, but they had no communication.

She studied fashion design in college, a major that is not unpopular at all nowadays.

After the war, the Federation achieved an unprecedented victory, and all culture related to the Federation became the world's mainstream popular culture, including clothing.

Under the cultural invasion of the Federation, young people from foreign countries watch Federation literature, movies, and TV, listen to Federation songs, and wear Federation fashionable clothes.

This has become a thing that is happening all over the world!

This has also caused the market value of many clothing brands to skyrocket, and Severella's career has also reached its peak!

Because her products are endorsed by Her Majesty Queen Feline, they are best-sellers in most parts of the world.

Even brands that were originally considered light luxury brands have become luxury brands, and those sub-brands have also risen to different levels.

Various fashion festivals in the Federation have also made the fashion culture of the Federation become the world's fashion trend zone!

Many famous fashion designers are famous all over the world, and their net worth can easily start in the millions.

This is a promising job, and no one will criticize it as a bad job.

He didn't quite understand why the girl suddenly wanted to change jobs.

Of course, this is just that he thinks things too simply or too complicatedly.

Connor's daughter's talent for design is... hard to describe.

She chose fashion design in college not because she liked this career, but because it was a career without any pressure.

Fashion design is not like other jobs that are more traditional, such as mathematics majors, or very popular lawyers, doctors, etc., which require a lot of time and attention, and also face strong competitive pressure.

There is very little pressure in fashion design, and with her special family, there is no competitiveness.

It's just that she encountered some problems after graduation. She used the 200,000 yuan that Connor gave her to start her own brand.

She ambitiously believed that she could soon become the "Fashion Queen" of the federal fashion industry, but reality gave her the hardest slap in the face.

Her brand was ignored and her designs were described by many industry professionals as "lack of agility" or "rigid".

This almost brought her to the end of the road!

The Federation is a very special country. They even dare to scold the president, but they dare not scold the president’s daughter?

As long as what she does is really not good enough, she might be able to increase her popularity by scolding her harshly.

From this perspective, it is indeed difficult to be the federal president.

After considering many optional follow-up developments, the girl chose the path she was more interested in, becoming a star.

In her eyes, being a star is an easy thing. She can earn both fame and fortune by acting in a few movies a year and participating in some fashion events.

Penny is an iconic figure. She has basically completed her transformation from actor to capital and has become a "role model" in the eyes of others.

Connor's daughter thought there was nothing wrong with her.

After chatting with the girl, Lynch agreed to help her make arrangements.

"Let's make a movie first and give it a try. If you're really suitable, I'll take care of the rest."

He didn't say it very fully, which Connor didn't care about.

Anyway, he has the power and money now. Even if he retires in the future, he will still have the power and the money, as long as his daughter is happy.

After solving the problem, Lynch did not leave, but went to the study with Connor.

After the two sat down and drank some scented tea, they started talking about real "business".

"The old man contacted me..." Connor took out cigarettes and gave one to Lynch, all of which were brands.

It has firmly captured the federal high-end cigarette market, and everyone from capitalists to politicians are consuming the product every moment.

With the smoke, there was a strong smell of smoke in the room, but it was not smelly, but had a slight fragrance.

"He was very disappointed with Gladstone's performance and asked me some questions."

"Although he didn't tell me directly, I felt that he seemed to be preparing to do something."

While Connor was speaking, he had been observing Lynch's expression.

He is very aware of the connection between Lynch and the old man. Others may not know it, but he knows it.

Because the relationship between Gladstone and the old man was not as tense as it is now, the old man took Gladstone to see Lynch several times, and Gladstone told him all the time.

Their relationship was indeed good at that time, perhaps in order to increase his ability to take over the committee, so he did not hide this.

If the old man really planned to remove Gladstone from power, then Lynch must know it too.

It's just that Lynch has already reached the stage where he won't let his uncontrollable emotions show up on his face, whether he's happy or angry, so it's hard for Connor to see anything from his face.

Connor shook his head, "What do you think?"

As Connor watched Lynch, Lynch looked at Connor and said, "It doesn't really matter what I think. You know, I'm not interested in politics."

"Who goes up and who goes down, it doesn't make much difference to me."

"Even if Gladstone steps down and a new person comes in, do you think he can ignore me?"

A very domineering speech. A figure at the top of federal politics cannot avoid capitalists. I don’t know whether this is the federation’s luck or its sorrow.

But Lynch was telling the truth.

The current seven major industries are a group of people that the federal government absolutely cannot avoid, and they must pay great attention to them.

However, Lynch's words seemed to reveal some information, and Connor nodded as if he understood.

His expression became a little more complicated, "To be honest, I don't hate Gladstone too much. He is good at everything, but he is too controlling."

"He wants everything to be his way, and any time you do something different than what he wants, he sees you as an obstacle."

Lynch did not refute, nor would he agree, this is the fact.

At the same time, it is also one of the unlikable aspects of Gladstone. Lynch thought he was pretty good at first and he acted very approachable.

But later I felt that he was not very good. After he gained power, he did not listen to others' advice.

President Bowling listened to others' advice. He was not impeached and left the presidential palace smoothly.

Mr. Trueman listened as long as what you said made sense, so he became one of the most remarkable presidents of the Union.

Connor also listened to others' advice, so he successfully entered the presidential palace.

But Gladstone did not listen to others' advice. Not only did he not listen to others' advice, he also wanted to persuade others to listen to him, which made Lynch dislike him.
