Blackstone Code

"interesting!"

When Geruno said this with a smile, the attention of the people in the room was immediately drawn.

As one of the most powerful people in the Federation, countless pairs of eyes stare at him every day, interpreting every word, every movement, and every look in his eyes.

Often those with higher status seem to be more rigid at work. This is the reason.

They cannot show too many emotions and voice movements, which will make people think wildly and even trigger a series of uncontrollable things.

"A smile starts a war" is a very famous proverb from Gaevra. It talks about a count who showed an ambiguous smile to a married aristocratic lady.

Someone saw it and told the noble lady's husband to another nobleman.

The husband of the noble lady asked the nobleman if he was having an affair with his wife, but of course the nobleman would not admit it.

He just thought of a knowing smile. He didn't know the woman at all, but to others, it was an ambiguous smile.

So the husband of the noble lady felt that he was not only betrayed, but also humiliated, so he killed his wife in public and then declared war on the noble.

The war lasted for a full year, with more than 20,000 casualties, and in the end the aristocratic group had to step forward to mediate.

A Count's smile can cause people to misunderstand, let alone Mr. Geruno's words and the interesting expression on his face.

There were three things going through everyone's minds in the room at this moment.

What is he laughing at?

why is he laughing

Who's interested?

The first question seems to be the same as the second one, but in fact it is not. What to laugh at is very specific. For example, if someone falls down, the person laughing is his fall.

This is a specific thing, a detailed reason for the behavior.

The latter is a dynamic change derived from inner emotions. It may be because of anger, it may be because of happiness, it may be because...

Of course, there is also the final topic, who makes Mr. Geruno find it interesting?

More than a dozen gentlemen in the room were thinking about this issue. They were constantly searching for valuable clues to expand the scope of their thinking.

Mr. Geruno saw the thoughtful expressions of the juniors or peers in the room, and he suppressed the smile on his face.

"Do you know how arms dealers can successfully sell a pistol to people who don't need it?" His sudden question caused the gentlemen in the room to change their thoughts at the same time.

Some people think quickly and immediately give their own answer, "Create a sense of crisis, for example, contact some vicious cases that have occurred in society, and tell them that buying a pistol can not only protect themselves, but also Protect your family.”

Some people nodded in agreement, while some were still thinking. Mr. Geruno looked at the others, "Does anyone have other ideas? This is just a simple discussion."

Although what he said was simple, there was no doubt that the person who answered correctly would leave a deep impression on him.

The Duncan family was a large family, and their wealth allowed them to have children without restraint.

Ordinary families may not be able to afford two or three children, but for people in this family, they can have many.

Even after they are born, they don’t need to be raised by themselves. There are special institutions in the family to uniformly train these children, and this is also a screening mechanism to select outstanding family descendants.

There are many excellent people, so who can get a better future, after they have proven that they are excellent people, actually has nothing to do with their learning ability and outstanding performance.

No matter how good a person is, it is impossible to master all knowledge, but the wealth of the Duncan family allows countless people who have mastered a piece of knowledge and studied it to the extreme to serve them.

So how to compete for the leader of each generation of the family or even the head of the next generation?

It depends on how much impression they can leave on the current head of the family. Perhaps when the old man is dying and choosing a successor, whether his appearance can emerge in his mind.

At this time, someone else said, "We can sell him the weapons as a 'gift' by selling other things."

Some people nodded, this sales method is very popular recently.

Want a hair dryer?

If you buy a hair dryer now, we will also give you a free oven!

Perhaps in the eyes of customers, ovens are gifts, but to capitalists, every product has a cost price and sales price, and ovens are still "sold".

No one continued to answer.

Mr. Geruno sat back in his chair and played with the exquisite pen in his hand casually, "What you said is all right, but none of it is good enough."

"Creating a sense of crisis can sometimes be effective, but what you have to note is that only on defensive issues can a sense of crisis move people forward."

"Except for a few people, most people are relatively less aggressive. They are less likely to buy offensive weapons to protect themselves. Instead, they are more likely to choose defensive equipment."

He pointed to another person as he spoke, "It seems like it should work if you buy one product and give another product as a gift, but I've only heard of buying a gun and giving ammunition as a gift, but I've never heard of buying an electric iron as a gift of a pistol."

"It might be possible if it's an arms deal, but it doesn't apply to everyone and it has big limitations."

When he said this, Mr. Geruno put the pen in his hand on the table and made a snapping sound.

He looked up at everyone, "It's actually very simple to do this. No matter who he is, as long as you give him strong hatred and the urge for revenge, he will buy a pistol without hesitation."

"He could be a farmer, he could be a janitor, he could be a regular office worker, he could be anyone."

"Give him a strong desire for revenge at any time and anywhere, and he will buy a pistol. There are no limitations, as long as the hatred is in place."

"So what we first sell is not the pistol, but hatred, and then we make the pistol a necessary consumer product and sell it."

"You must be thinking about what I just meant when I said 'interesting'. I was actually talking about Lynch."

"We have actually achieved the goal of promoting the legislation of the Overseas Security Act, but he has pushed the atmosphere one step further."

"We have the right to take revenge and we must take revenge are completely different concepts. He did this very well, and the six million is not a loss!"

From the promotion to the development of the whole thing until now, almost all the work has been completed by the Duncan family, but this completion lacks... how to say, a kind of soul and a kind of bone!

There is no core.

The Foreign Security Act is like a security threat to current federal people.

"Hey, someone got hurt, why don't you buy a pistol to protect yourself?"

Some people will agree, but more people still think that this kind of thing cannot happen to them, or that if it does happen, they can be saved through other methods.

Their desire is not strong, and even if they are sure to pass, some people will crookedly say that it is the result of another behind-the-scenes operation.

But Lynch gave the whole case a kind of agility. He didn't tell people that if you don't buy this gun, you might be in danger. He stabbed twice in the chest that people couldn't see, making people desperate. Able to protect oneself.

Then he showed up with a pistol, and now the desire to consume was strong.

This is why he said Lynch was interesting. He didn't think of this at first, but Lynch did.

There is no doubt that six million is well spent.

"When the Overseas Security Act is passed, we will form the family's first official private armed force. Let... be responsible for this!"

He said a name casually. In fact, the person and the name in his mind may not match, and he may have said it wrong.

After all, there are thousands of people in this family, and it is impossible for him to remember everyone's appearance and name. He is already very old, and he cannot put all his energy into identifying photos.

This is why leaving a deep impression is more meaningful than trying to do better.

He said and laughed again, "How interesting!"

He knew the history of Lynch's fortune. As one of the fast-rising capitalists of the new generation, Geruno had always paid close attention to it.

Compared with the new generation of capitalists who are rapidly rising through the processing industry and manufacturing industry, Lynch's path is a bit "wild" and a bit hard to understand.

He chose what may be the most difficult path for everyone, leaving the Federation directly to develop overseas.

Many people may not be optimistic about him, but he has avoided the more brutal competition in the country.

At that time, if you wanted to engage in finance or processing manufacturing in China, there was no chance of development.

The giants in the financial circle are embezzling each other, and the real industry is gradually declining. No matter which path he chooses, he has no chance of development.

But he has developed, and the changes in Nagaril have become a phenomenal capital operation.

It is said that the Holy Peace Society plans to push this matter to be included in the textbooks of the Federation. Of course, Mr. Geruno also agrees. After all, he can also leave his name in the textbooks.

Some reputations are easy to spread, but some reputations are not so easy to spread. This kind of reputation is safe.

This has always been a young man who does not follow the script. This time it seems that he has made a big profit, but in fact, Lynch has also made a profit.

In addition to the six million he pocketed, he also earned a large number of orders.

Just like the question Mr. Geruno just raised, before the danger occurs, before there is strong hatred.

Do people tend to buy a pistol as an offensive weapon when necessary, or entrust professionals to provide security services for themselves?

The answer is obvious. Rather than forming their own professional military institutions, more people prefer to spend money to solve problems.

So which company is the most secure in the federation?

no doubt!

That must be Blackstone Security!

Rock solid!
