Blackstone Code Chapter 1412: 2 options


"As long as I don't have a problem, you will at least have a few more years in Congress."

"Sometimes you have to learn to choose, Langdon, you give something to get something, and if you don't want to give anything, you get nothing."

Lynch made it very straightforward to make it clear that the reason he was a senator was not how good he was.

It was he who followed the right person.

In terms of personal ability in the Commonwealth, the number of people who can rival the senators is unclear. These people are even more capable than the current senators. Some of them are managers from the middle and lower levels of society.

They know more about how federal society works at the bottom than the macro-level changes than people at the top like the Senators.

But why are these people with strong personal abilities unable to play important roles and provide the necessary impetus for the development and evolution of this society?

It's because they lack supporters!

Without their support, they will never have a chance to stand in the spotlight, and sometimes the reality is so cruel.

Don't just stare at a fool emperor and ask others, why even a fool can be an emperor, while ignoring the father of the fool emperor, his family is the royal family!

So the higher the political level, the ability to match a person's position becomes less important. .

If Congressman Langdon wants to stay in this position, he must cooperate with Lynch, speak on behalf of Lynch in Congress, or make certain decisions.

The growing arrogance of capitalists is largely due to the fact that these politicians are so obedient that a small group of people forget that even if they can do a lot, they shouldn't do it.

Congressman Langdon understood this too, let go of some thoughts in his mind that he didn't even know what it was, and began to work seriously.

In fact, working for Lynch is not a very difficult thing. Lynch will not sometimes make the senators lose face like other capitalists. He never reprimands anyone, and always smiles very gently. say.

He doesn't interfere with Congressman Langdon's decisions except on important matters, which is much better than most, and he has nothing to dislike.

After October 10th, the New Year is approaching, and although there are still two months left, there are already some festive atmospheres on the street that are preparing for the New Year.

New Year is also a very sacred holiday for the Commonwealth, because during this time, they can get a very rare vacation.

In a week, of course, some workers will continue to work at this important time. Perhaps only at this time will the factory owners increase overtime wages and attract more workers to the assembly line.

But in any case, it's a day to be happy, whether it's because of ample vacation time or because of a generous overtime pay.

Unlike this atmosphere of longing for the future everywhere, the Duncan family is also facing some heated discussions.

During this time, the FBI held onto the Duncan family's pigtails, which made Mr. Geruno a little unsure of what to do.

To say that silence for the sake of a trivial matter will certainly lead to greater dissatisfaction with the federal government.

And it is not one or two people who want to be killed, but many people. Some of these people participated in the construction of Elysium Island, some participated in the transaction of human trafficking, and some people provided various acquisitions for some celebrities and dignitaries in the Federation. Happy service.

These people were arrested one by one because of the Elysium Island issue.

Some of them have confessed, some of them are still holding on, but everyone knows they won't hold on for long.

Sometimes interrogation work is like this, as long as one person speaks, the guilt of others speaking will be much lessened. Maybe they will not speak immediately, but they will not be so resistant.

It seems that these are small things, such as some money and power transactions, such as some illegal kidnappings.

But these little things have the potential to cause big problems.

"Where is Horn now?", Mr. Geruno quit thinking, and as soon as he spoke, some of the earlier whispers in the room disappeared.

Horn White was the developer of Elysium. He just came up with a "concept" at the time, then raised tens of millions, opened up various joints, and then began to build the island artificially.

Maybe at that time many people would be surprised by Horn's ability, or by the way he could convince those rich people, but in fact without the secret support of the Duncan family behind his back, he had no such opportunity at all.

Not everyone is a fool. They believe whatever you say. There must be some reason to make these people who can make money believe your nonsense.

And he is also the king of the Kingdom of Elysium, of course, this is what he said, and so many purposes are also to better hide the Duncan family behind the scenes.

Now that Elysium is basically at a standstill and Horn is in hiding, he is federally wanted for kidnapping, murder and aggravated assault.

He's more cunning than the FBI agents imagined, has a sharper nose, and when he senses something is wrong, people just disappear.

Even people don't know if he's in the country now, or if he's gone into hiding.

Answering Mr. Geruno's question was a junior in the family who had previously been in charge of some follow-up work on the Elysium side, "He is now in a town in... I stared at him without disturbing him."

Mr. Geruno nodded slightly. Horn didn't let go and was still under control. This is very good news.

He thought for a moment, then said, "Keep Horn under control and be careful he escapes our sight..."

Mr. Geruno is not really ready to confront the federal government. He is very clear that a radical federal government will not allow domestic unofficial forces to provoke the overall order of the country.

This is not as good as the Conservative Party. Mr. Geruno believes that the biggest mistake in the past few years is to give the Progressive Party a chance to become the ruling party.

The term group fanaticism was first coined by some experts in social behavior, meaning that when a group of people come together, a dominant consciousness comes into play, and some benefit is gained from it.

The whole group will acquiesce that this is the best thing to do, and they will become fanatical as a result.

The Conservative Party's policies are much more passive than the Progressive Party. If they are in power, they will not easily deal with the Duncan family, because it is related to at least millions of jobs.

They could make even more concessions in order to keep the federation stable.

But the Progressive Party is different. Mr. President, who is smiling all day, seems to have made up his mind, but this makes Mr. Geruno feel a little tricky.

Because he can't use anything else to intimidate the government, he can't guarantee that, so his first thought is to compromise.

No shame in compromise!

And Horn is a very good "sacrifice", his identity is special enough, and he is a federal wanted criminal.

Of course it can't be sent to the federal government as it is now, only a corpse. After all, Horn knows a lot. In case he can't bear to reveal some secrets, come to Mr. Geruno That said, it's also a big hassle.

He thought of this and couldn't help sighing. Since the international situation suddenly changed and the First World War broke out, the international society has changed too fast.

A few years ago, about 20 years ago, the whole world still supported the slave trade. As a result, after two or three years, the calls for abolition of slavery became louder and louder.

Then slavery was really abolished, and all the legal business of the Duncan family became illegal in an instant.

But the market is still there, and the market is growing stronger because the world is abolishing slavery.

A healthy adult male in his twenties used to sell for about 150 yuan-

If it is converted to the present, the price is about one thousand yuan.

If it is strong, it can be sold for up to about 400 yuan.

And a woman in her twenties, depending on various factors, can sell for 60 yuan to no limit!

Most of the need for effort is often in order to reduce labor costs, slaves just need to keep them from starving to death.

Ordinary female slaves are not popular in the market. They can neither work nor be favored by slave owners. The purpose of buying these female slaves is to take care of the needs of other male slaves. By the way, if you can have a few children, you can save a little money.

At the height of slavery, in the eyes of slave owners, there was no difference between slaves and domestic animals.

But it all fell apart in the end.

The price of slaves has skyrocketed, and there is a demand for more directionality ~IndoMTL.com~ The Duncan family has no choice but to continue to engage in the illegal slave trade.

It's not that the Duncan family hasn't tried transformation in other industries over the years, but they all ended in failure.

This is also a problem that most first-generation consortiums are facing. With the speed of social development and the advancement of productivity and technology, some ancient industries can no longer keep up with the times.

They have to make a choice at this time. Some have succeeded, but many have failed.

If...if we can survive this crisis, all these dangerous industries should be cut off!

Mr. Geruno sighed again. In fact, he knew very well that even if these industries were cut off and there was no new way out, they might still have to go down this road in the end.

And some things are not broken when you say they are broken. When interests form a big net, whether you are the owner of this net or not, you will be deeply trapped by this net.

You struggle, and it only gets tighter.

You want to escape, but never have the chance!
