Blackstone Code Chapter 176: A heavy rain
In September, the weather is not so dry. Although it is still a little hot, there is a chill in the wind.
Two new branches were established one after another and achieved good transaction volume. Lynch has begun to instruct Richard to prepare for the second-hand goods auction in the capital of the state. As the Interstellar Trading Company gradually appeared more frequently in In people's eyes, Lynch has gained a lot of wealth and prestige.
"Adelaide is the Governor's Chief of Staff and a relative of the Governor..."
Sitting in the car belonging to the mayor, the mayor is explaining to Lynch about the person they will meet next. By the way, he will also explain some matters to Lynch.
The better Lynch's business is doing, the more likely it will be that the mayor's policies are more successful.
The more successful the mayor's policies, the more standing he will have within the state's Progressive Party, and it has been suggested that he has a certain chance of getting a chance to run for governor.
Not every mayor can get this opportunity. Most mayors are unlikely to get such an opportunity. They will most likely retire as state legislators or members of Congress. These can't be earned, and they can only get a job in the party.
Promoting a politician to run for governor is not an easy task, and the resources involved are innumerable, so except for those who are very sure, whether it is a progressive party or a conservative party, or always The Socialist Party, which has been forgotten, will not consider electing anyone else.
The mayor may get this opportunity, but only if he implements some policies, ideas and practices that can really and effectively make Sabine and the state better than others in the face of economic difficulties Well, at the same time, his policies must be able to lead the movement of the entire federation.
Only in this way can the huge popularity and appearance rate make up for his most important shortcoming - he is not a member of the Holy Peace!
So he is now very reliant on Lynch, and the two of them sat in his car together to attend a small exchange meeting organized by Adelaide, the governor's chief of staff.
The city of Sabine is not the only part of the state facing these problems that they have, all cities are, the governor's staff gets to work, they go around looking for solutions, and then try to find some of them that may be successful of.
Why they didn't do it before, it was because they trusted their brains to come up with the right solution.
Why they're doing it now, it's because they found out that their brains weren't as good as they thought.
Let Adelaide go to Sabine City, which is also the governor's back. At least the second-hand commodity auctions implemented in Sabine City have proved to be a good policy-a professional survey agency will do questionnaires behind this. investigation.
People often see some people doing surveys on the street with questionnaires, and there will be small gifts for answering the questions. These are mobilizers of professional survey agencies. Each street questionnaire is worth at least 50 points. One or two pieces (when targeting different groups of people).
So the governor wondered if the mayor of Sabine or his buddy Lynch had some other, more constructive ideas.
"...Adelaide was born in a family of saints, he has a firm belief, although he often does things without belief!", the mayor casually satirized a little, and could see that he Not a big fan of Adelaide.
After the sarcasm, the mayor's tone became slightly lower, "This is a very cunning man, he has the appearance of a priest, but don't be deceived by his appearance, he is a cunning the fox."
Lynch found it interesting to hear, "No offense, is it between you..." He shrugged his shoulders and made small gestures in his hands to let the mayor understand what he meant.
The mayor admitted with some embarrassment. This is the role of "value". Lynch has this value, so they will be very close, and some more personal topics can be discussed.
But if one day Lynch is worthless, they will be like strangers outside the car window again, obviously they can see each other, but no one is looking at each other.
"He once proposed that I skip my current job and go directly to the state Senate to be a member of the state Senate. These are not pertinent suggestions. He just wants his nephew to do my current job!"
The mayor said with a smile on his face, "But I won this game!"
He didn't talk about the price of winning the game, which must have been very heavy.
He said some more Adelaide habits and details, and told Lynch over and over again, don't believe the bastard's nonsense, he's a liar.
In fact, everyone is a liar, but some people are still a little naive, and some people have deceived themselves. As for those who are not good or bad, they are still struggling.
The location of this exchange meeting was set in a manor on the outskirts of the city of Sabine. The owner of the manor was Mr. Green, a progressive member of the state senator. When Adelaide was going to the city of Sabine , he took the initiative to take the job.
When the car was about to arrive at the manor, it suddenly rained heavily. The sudden heavy rain lowered the temperature and made Lynch, who was dressed to attend, feel a little cooler.
In fact, his back is almost sweaty, but in order to ensure that the wearer will not lose face due to the problem of sweat in summer dresses, they will do some "hands and feet" on the pony clip, the wet is always small The vest will not affect the dress.
This well-timed rain has also made the air clean. Of course, the driver's experience may not be so good. Everything in the rain has become slightly blurred and the speed of the car has been slowed down a lot.
About ten minutes after the original arrival time, the two arrived at the manor, and the manor's housekeeper immediately asked two guests, Lynch and Mayor Langdon, to go to their private guest room for repairs. By the way, I reminded the other party that because of the heavy rain, the exchange meeting was postponed until 9 o'clock in the evening, and they still had about 40 minutes of rest time.
The unplanned heavy rain may make them a little embarrassed, so this time is not really for them to rest and sleep, but to let them solve some problems that they need to solve.
For example, if the clothes are wet, there are special servants in the manor who can help the guests dry the clothes.
For example, there is a lot of mud on the leather shoes, and the servants can quickly help them deal with it.
Even the sock smeared with mason and the cuffs not so clean can be fixed before the meeting.
In fact, even if these problems are not solved, no one will say anything, and no one will sing in front of people in an opera-like tone, "Aha, look at that idiot's ass, is it mud or **** on it? "
But people always want to save their face, especially on important occasions.
After Lynch and the maid arrived in the guest room, the maid asked whether he needed to clean some clothes for him. After thinking about it, Lynch took off his dress and looked at it. There was no dust or rain on it. It was his trousers that were damp, but inconspicuous.
He changed a pair of shoes and asked the maid to help him clean up the splattered dirt from the shoes, then sat in the room enjoying some snacks, some good coffee, and some newspapers.
A little over ten minutes later, his leather shoes were returned, and the servants wiped the dust off them, re-oiled them, and polished them with lambskin to make them look like new.
Lynch will spend the rest of the time reading newspapers or watching TV. After eight o'clock is the peak time of TV show ratings. Many people will choose to lie on the sofa at this time and eat cheap and full of fat. The beautiful things with sugar, the pursuit of rare spiritual enjoyment.
Lynch flipped through a few channels at random, and there was not much content related to the current situation. Instead, several institutional sections on the "Transaction News" invariably increased the exchange risk of various war bonds. The situation deteriorated very fast.
Many people may feel that they did not buy war bonds, and this matter has nothing to do with them. It is obviously not wrong to treat these things as isolated matters.
But the question is how many isolated incidents exist in this world, and how many isolated incidents can be truly isolated?
It's hard!
Lynch walked to the edge of the window. The earth and sky in the distance were mixed together. In the heavy rain, it was impossible to tell which was the sky and which was the ground. They were all pitch black and swallowed all the light.
At 8:50, the housekeeper personally knocked on the door, reminding Lynch that the exchange meeting would be held in the meeting room of the manor later, and arranged for a special person to lead Lynch there.
While walking through the long corridor, Lynch noticed some oil paintings hanging on the walls of the corridor. He didn't know much about oil paintings, but he could see that these oil paintings were not cheap.
Art is resonant because true art is itself an expression of emotion.
It can be seen that ~IndoMTL.com~ Senator Green is not just a member of parliament, he is also very rich.
In the conference room, after Lynch and the mayor said hello, the two sat in the first row, because today they are the protagonists of the protagonists.
9:01, very punctual, when the second slipped past fifty-nine seconds and the minute hand moved forward a little, the door of the conference room opened again, and a smiling, silver-haired man walked out of the room came in outside.
He wears relatively modest clothes, and he feels more like a teacher than a politician, and there is not much in common between the two.
One is to educate people, to teach people the need to pursue the truth and to teach them how.
One is to play tricks and make up stories as much as possible to suit one's own interests.
But they are paradoxically integrated in this person, Mr. Adelaide, as the mayor said, like a priest, or a teacher, can let people relax.
