Blackstone Code

Becoming a politician is not Lynch's pursuit, not that he thinks politicians are bad.

Politicians are good and have privileges that are different from wealth. The privileges held by politicians are essentially higher than the privileges that wealth can create.

But the power of politicians is not eternal. For example, Mr. President can only be re-elected once. After his re-election, he must wait another eight years before he can participate in the next election.

In this process, he can do nothing. He can only be active in society as the "xx to xx president."

It is true that the President may still have some power at that time, but what is the use?

He is just an old man who no one wants to listen to. Only when the successors in power need to show their tolerance, they will not talk about the stupid plans they made when referring to the previous president.

But most of the time, the successor is not so forgiving to the predecessor.

Denying one's predecessor has become a habitual behavior of almost all politicians. At the same time, political power is not eternal. Lynch doesn't like this. He doesn't like having to lose the peak power in his hands after holding it in his hands.

In addition, even the president needs the support of a large number of capitalists, so why not choose to be the person who always "takes the throne" instead of choosing a spokesman for interests?

Maybe in this process there will be some people who are not very smart and will stand on the opposite side of the capitalists and be pushed out by other emerging capitalists who are eager to break down class barriers, but this world and the country of the Federation ultimately belong to the capitalists. of, not politicians.

This is the reason why Lynch refused. He can be the biggest supporter of Blackstone Capital for the rest of his life, but he cannot be the president for the rest of his life.

Mr. Trueman sighed with regret, "You can think about it again. I think you are very talented, and you can work with us and run your business at the same time."

Lynch found it a bit unbelievable, but he could understand that when a person really wants something to happen, his thoughts will become childish.

"That's impossible, Trueman, you know that."

Mr. Trueman fell into silence. By Lynch's impossibility, he meant that he was engaged in politics and business at the same time.

There is no federal law that does not allow politicians to do business. Many politicians themselves are influential capitalists. But the problem is that if a politician goes to high-end places, lives in a mansion, drives a luxury car, and hangs out with the presidents of consortiums, people will think that Has his life, all of this, been earned through his hard work?

No, people won't think that. People will think that everything he enjoys was obtained by selling the power of the people.

This is why the federation allows politicians to do business, but those politicians still have to launch their own agents, like Mayor Langdon and the funds like Bu Payne.

When it comes to politicians, it seems that the whole world has unified its views in some incredible way - rich officials are all bad people, and only those who are poor and can't afford to eat are good people.

They did not consider whether it was a matter of ability at all, but simply regarded it as a matter of corruption.

On the contrary, these people are relatively tolerant of capitalists. As long as the law does not say that these capitalists are bad, people will respect these rich people and regard them as targets and role models.

In the words of another world, it is a president with flowing water and iron-clad capital.

Fifty years have passed, and several or more presidents have become former presidents, but the chairman of the board of directors is still the chairman!

"That will change one day!" Mr. Trueman shot back slightly.

Lynch didn't object, "I'm waiting for that day!"

The two looked at each other and then looked away from each other. If this topic continued, it would be a bit tit-for-tat, which was not in line with their demands at this stage.

"What are you going to do next?" Mr. Trueman collected his emotions and returned to work.

Lynch answered easily, "According to the plan you made before us. Also, how is the discussion with Gaevra?"

Speaking of Gaevra, Mr. Trueman finally had a smile on his face. This arrogant goal has now become his defeated enemy. This feeling is so good that it makes people forget about it.

More importantly, with Preton's help, the entire federation has a more detailed understanding of the internal operations of Gefra, and can influence the thoughts of ministers to a certain extent when necessary.

"The problem is not too big, we will see the results soon..." Mr. Trueman explained in a little detail.

Under the persuasion of the ministers, the emperor's attitude has softened a lot than before. Although now he has to curse the Federation and Mr. President every time he appears in the ruler's hall, in general, it won't be long before he will Agree to some of the ideas put forward by the federations and work with the federations to jointly develop the Amelia region.

Of course, the leadership is still in the hands of Gaevra, and the federations just use their experience in Nagaril to help Gaevra quickly get out of the current predicament and realize their plan.

In this regard, they are willing to give up part of their profits to federal businessmen, such as allowing them to bid on some reconstruction projects, allowing them to compete with Gaevra merchants in the Amelia region, and allowing federal merchants to use Gaevra people to build their cargo ships. 's port.

"It sounds like they made a lot of concessions and sacrifices. Emperor Gefra is much more generous than I thought." Lynch said this with a smile after hearing this.

The tone of his words was very subtle, like a compliment or a taunt. Mr. Trueman carefully distinguished it for a few seconds before nodding his head in praise, "Indeed, what they promised did not actually require them to promise. They didn't make any concessions that they needed to make, but fortunately we didn't undermine our ideas."

Helping Gaevra to build the Amelia region is not because the Federation is coveting the overseas value of this region. The Federation is not like Gaevra, a country without strategic depth. The Federation's vast land is enough to fight a protracted counter-invasion against the invaders. war.

What the Federation people really need is the market in the Amelia region. Although this will make Gefra's capitalists dissatisfied, it will not offend Gefra's emperor.

What they want is stable control of overseas territory. The Federation only wants money, and there is no conflict between their core interests. This provides the basis for cooperation.

"After the state election is over, we will send a delegation to discuss these cooperation with the Gefra people, which is nominally joint development. It may take until the end of spring or early summer to get results."

"And their negotiation location is in Gafra, so this negotiation will be a bit difficult."

It is a foreseeable fact that the negotiations will be difficult. The Gefra people will not show fear because the Federation's fleet is more powerful. On the contrary, this country, which has always dominated the world's most powerful navy, is stronger than anyone imagined. a.

When the news of the navy's defeat came back to Gaevra's country, ignoring the grumpy emperor, the attitude advocated by the people was not peace talks, not looking for reasons, not fear, but raising a large army to fight the Federation to the death.

The Gaevra people were officially reported by the federation as "barbaric", "aggressive" and other derogatory or simply derogatory labels. This group of militants was the main trouble facing the negotiating team.

Now Mr. Trueman and others are thinking about how to arrange a delegation to visit Gafra. If the head of the delegation is too tough, it will appear that the federation is a bit aggressive. It is the people who are putting pressure on him, which will also make people feel that the federation is too strong. The level of the delegation is too low and they will only care about ordinary people.

But if they weren’t so tough, who knows if those Gefra savages would kick their noses in the face? If people besieged the embassy, ​​or besieged the hotel where the delegation was staying, if it wasn’t handled well, the Federation’s international image would be ruined. Also be implicated.

Therefore, this candidate is very troublesome. Mr. Trueman feels that if possible, it is most appropriate to go there by himself. He has plenty of experience to deal with various situations. Unfortunately, the President cannot do without him.

While talking about this, Mr. Trueman suddenly realized that the most suitable candidate was right in front of him. He had an idea and asked, "Lynch, do you have time to go there?"

Lynch thought seriously, "Maybe."

"If you have time to go, it is best to go with the delegation. I will add you to the delegation's list. If necessary, you can replace the head of the delegation." In order to prevent Lynch from shirking this responsibility, Mr. Trueman, He added with emphasis, "This is for the Federation!"

Lynch nodded noncommittally, "Yes, for the Federation..." He breathed out lightly, "I agree."

In fact, he does have to go to Gaevra. Once the cooperation plan between the two parties is agreed upon, he will participate in the bidding meeting, and he will definitely be present in person.

In order to avoid some human interference during the bidding process, the delegation status can provide him with considerable convenience.

Lynch agreed, and Mr. Trueman breathed a sigh of relief. Of course, he would have other back-up tools, but generally speaking, Lynch's being able to go was a sign of responsibility and also helped the delegation in the negotiations. The victory in the game increases the chance of winning by a few points.

He may be young, but he is also trustworthy.

Next, the conversation between the two people returned to the development of Nagaril. The speed of the joint development company was astonishing. When many consortiums worked hard for the same goal, the energy created made Trueman feel frightened.

And this also increased his inner desire to put pressure on capital, and even restrict capital to a certain extent, but he did not show it, and he was harmless!

When Lynch left the presidential palace, he had almost determined the course of this big operation. The purpose of coming to see Mr. Trueman was to observe whether there were risks that he was not aware of.

Politics and capital are extremely dirty. If everyone can be friends today, they may be stabbed in the back tomorrow. He has to be on guard at all times.

Fortunately, there are no differences in their goals and this cooperative relationship can still be maintained.
