Blackstone Code Chapter 1397: splashing cold water

"I know you!"

Peleus also found a napkin and wiped his hands, then reached out and shook hands with Lynch.

His hands are... plump, which makes his fingers look stubby, but not greasy and soft.

"People say you are the best of the young generation!"

Peleus looks like he is in his thirties, but it is not very clear how old Lynch is. The Commonwealth sometimes looks old and sometimes looks young, which is very complicated.

However, from the tone of Peleus's words, I could tell that he was a little dissatisfied, but it doesn't matter, there are many people who are dissatisfied these days, and Lynch won't care.

He's a little modest, "Thanks for everyone's support!"

Peleus was stunned for a moment. He didn't immediately understand the meaning of Lynch's words. After thinking for two or three seconds, he laughed, "You are more interesting than I thought, Lynch."

"Speaking of which, Truman often mentions you. Sometimes when we have dinner together, he says that you are very smart and proud."

Mr. Truman's family has also been a soldier from the very beginning. It has been passed down from generation to generation from generation to generation. Although the military rank is not very high, there is a chance to be promoted to general when it comes to Truman, but the network in the military is not. It's not weak at all.

The military families of this era are often united as well, and they firmly control the army of the Federation in ways that outsiders cannot understand.

In order to ensure that this unity will continue, each general will have good relations with other generals.

It's very common to have dinner together, to communicate with each other, etc.

Of course, this refers to their descendants, not themselves. After all, they have different identities. They are too sensitive to do so, and the media and the public will not be happy.

Lynch replied with a smile, "I will invite him to dinner!"

Peleus couldn't help but laughed softly, "You're so funny, Lynch, you're proud as Truman said, but your pride isn't annoying!"

He said after a pause, "Then we continue to eat?"

He doesn't seem to want to talk about other things, and Lynch naturally won't spoil the fun. The two of them eat and talk about some delicious food.

After Lynch said several things that Peleus hadn't eaten, the exchange ended. Neither side had any thoughts of private communication, so they separated.

When returning to Mr. Wardrick, he looked at Lynch with a smile, "Looks like you failed."

Lynch raised an eyebrow, "Why would you say that?"

Mr. Wardrick took it for granted, "You didn't exchange business cards or leave contact information. In fact, many people hope to open some windows from Peleus."

"The influence of their family in the military is too deep. If they can persuade him, it means that they can at least become an important partner of the military."

"But over the years, no one has ever made it, he looks fat and stupid, and most people are deceived by his appearance!"

To be able to name "victory", the elders in the family are either generals of the federal army or the navy, uncles, brothers and sisters in the family are almost all officers, or cadres who are related to the army.

Peleus is another descendant of the marriage of two military figures, and has high hopes before birth.

Such a person may not be as educated in some way as the finer details of those big families, but it's definitely not bad.

Since he was a child, many people have revolved around him, because he is fat, and the fat makes him look not very smart, many people think that he will be the key to their rise to the upper class.

Unfortunately, no one has succeeded yet.

Wherever he appears, the only thing he does is eat, drink, listen, and nothing else.

Even if it's the smallest thing, like what's good and what's not, he won't make a statement.

It is because he seems to have never had an opinion, that makes many people think he is getting more and more stupid, but no one can win the trust of him.

So on an occasion like today, no one talks to him, and he just eats by himself at the dining table.

In Mr. Wardrick's view, Lynch couldn't either.

Lynch smiled but didn't refute.

He always believed that everyone has weaknesses, desires, and needs, and the only question is whether you can find them.

You can't feel that you can't find it just because others can't find it. This is not Lynch's attitude!

The two then communicated about the gathering, and there was a salon after the cold dinner, the theme of which was free trade at home and abroad.

It's very broad and has no core content, and it's actually not simple.

Lynch saw this after the cold meal.

The host is a third-level member, and his badge flashes like fire under the lights, especially the eyes of the True Eye, as if there is really an eye secretly observing the world.

Some industries and companies mentioned by the host, if you do a serious investigation, you will understand that these industries belong to the Duncan family.

When the host talked about a heavy industry company, Mr. Wardrick, who had been silent, suddenly spoke up and talked about his recent heavy factory and military orders, as well as the expected development and some plans to disclose .

He talked about the benefits of combined development and some of the issues of industrial upgrading, the most popular topic at the moment.

What must be done so that some ancient industries can be given new vitality in the new era, so that they can continue?

Then the host talked about some resources. At this time, Mr. Patou started talking about the future of the resource industry.

It's like...another cold dinner party, where people eat not the food on the plates at the cold table, but the Duncan family property.

They're talking about ways and means of dismembering it, and how to better plunder it to grow itself.

Many people think that the Holy Harmony Society is a very united secret society organization, but it is not.

This is a loose alliance. Everyone exchanges some intelligence information or cooperates together. It does not require all members to be closely united with each other, and does not even limit the interests of members or even fight.

A fight in every sense.

Here is also the implementation of the most core value of capitalism - the supremacy of interests.

Therefore, the law of species of nature is also implemented here.

The weak are swallowed up by the powerful, it is their destiny.

Similarly, people don't condemn the weak for doing something wrong because the strong devoured the weak, they only congratulate them for making themselves bigger and less likely to be swallowed by other giants!

Without morality, capitalism is all about profit, and they are not interested in anything but profit.

Everyone is expressing their opinion, only a few are not speaking.

Peleus is one of them, but it's no surprise to everyone that he is like a microphone for the family behind him, conveying what he heard here, and then letting those generals make a decision.

Lynch didn't speak either, which is surprising. You know, Lynch is not such a low-key guy. He said a lot of things that have become the foundation of some new disciplines.

Something like "Financial War" has been put forward by many scholars and experts, and has gradually evolved into a new discipline.

And Lynch, is the founder, no one.

Whether in front of the media, the public, or in private, he always had a lot to say and acted very much in the spirit of federal freedom.

But today he didn't say anything, instead making many people curious.

The host specifically clicked on him, "I noticed that Mr. Lynch was a little shy when he attended our party for the first time, but I believe that everyone is enthusiastic and will help him integrate into us faster. ..."

Some of the people's chuckles were benign, some not, and some malicious.

Not everyone likes Lynch, and not everyone likes his never-fail-forward saga.

The host looked at him, "Do you want to say something?"

Lynch sat on the large sofa. He first nodded to the host and then told a short story.

"I've heard an interesting story about a group of coyotes on a hill outside a town. They are numerous and hidden in the forest, and people have nothing to do."

"Then a traveler who was passing through town said he encountered a pack of coyotes in the outskirts, and the coyotes didn't seem to be doing well."

"So people in town started thinking about how to trade these coyotes for some money."

"Some people say that coyote skins can be sold for money, others say coyote teeth are good collectibles, others say there's a market for coyote bones and meat, and still others suggest that coyotes can be sold to circuses group.”

The room was quiet, and no one who could sit here was a fool, and they immediately realized that Lynch was mocking them.

And this is also the biggest difference between real gentlemen and fake gentlemen~IndoMTL.com~ Even if they knew they were being satirized, they did not refute angrily, but quietly continued to listen to what Lynch had to say.

If you can't tolerate some of the flaws that others find in you, you'll never improve!

People know this!

Lynch pursed his lips and continued with a smile, "Then the people in the town decided to go into the mountains to get these coyotes back, but they didn't think about some issues."

"Did the traveler lie about whether the conditions in the mountains were really that bad, and whether the coyotes he saw were what the townspeople thought they were!"

He tidied up his clothes and changed the conversation, "Gentlemen, when we face a pack of hungry wolves, the first thing we have to do is to arm ourselves and be fully prepared."

"At the same time, we must also realize that wolves will not wait to be slaughtered by people, they will always resist!"

"What if they resisted, the people who entered the mountains?"

"If you don't want to be clear, if you don't solve these problems, no matter how much we discuss, it will be meaningless!"
