Blackstone Code Chapter 234: The end of an era and the new life
A little later, Lynch had dinner with the mayor.
Speaking of which, this is a very interesting phenomenon. Two months ago, Lynch wanted to have a meal with the mayor and had to queue for a long time to get his turn.
But now, he can easily see the mayor anytime, anywhere, and jump in line at any time to sit down with the mayor for a chat, or to have a meal.
Is this the result of Lynch's charisma, his knowledge, his character, all the good qualities?
No, this has nothing to do with those excellent qualities, just because he has money, because his development has been linked to the mayor's political program, they are a community of interests, and interests are what make these miracles happen key.
It was a very ordinary dinner, instead of eating out, they chose to eat at the mayor's house.
It's not a smart thing to eat and drink outside at this time, maybe a reporter who doesn't know where to hide can make a big news.
For example, the mayor who is eating and drinking and the homeless man who is about to freeze and starve on the side of the road at the same time, without any strong language, is enough to conjure up a lot of things that can make people angry .
So in order to avoid these problems, the mayor specially invited Lynch to his home for dinner, an ordinary family dinner, but the family dinner itself is not so ordinary.
"I heard from Mark that you are going to break up your company. Will this have any impact on some of our next... plans?", the mayor asked very straightforwardly, and Mark told about the meeting After the mayor, the mayor decided to ask Lynch.
He's not worried about the money, as long as his **** is sitting in this position, it's just a simple matter for Mark to make a fortune.
For example, recently Mark has been negotiating with City Hall about public transportation in the city.
The bankruptcy of the public transportation company continues to affect the travel problems of the citizens of this city. No company is willing to take this responsibility. Fortunately, Mark appeared at this time.
He is willing to take this responsibility, and at the same time, in order to thank Mark for taking such a responsibility, the city hall is willing to squeeze out some losses in subsidizing the operation of the public transportation company from the already not very rich finances, and at the same time give to a certain degree of tax exemption for them.
To show that this is a process without black box transactions, everything is transparent and visible.
The mayor is not worried about how Mark's business is doing. He is only worried about whether the policies he implements will be affected.
Lynch explained the situation to him patiently and in a way the mayor could understand.
"After the company is split, we will let professional people do professional things, which can provide more jobs for the society than now. Let me give an example...", he said after a pause, the city Long listened very seriously and did not interrupt him.
"As things stand now, I probably have less than thirty partners in each city, enough people to do all the business."
"But after the split, it's just the workers needed to build a second-hand commodity trading center in various places. There are probably hundreds to thousands of people in each city!"
"And that doesn't include the later operations and management staff, who are only going to be many more, and it's just one company."
"The auction company, as well as the current parent company, we still need warehouses. Whether it is renting someone else's or building our own, we can provide more jobs for the society."
The mayor understood something, and he asked a more targeted question, "You have spread the situation so much, can the funds keep up with it?"
Lynch shook his head, "There's nothing wrong with this, I wouldn't have done it a few years ago, just the expected land would have been enough to bankrupt me, but now..."
He smiled and moved away from the table. The mayor's cook brought the cooked steak. He didn't continue, but the mayor knew what he was talking about.
As the destructive effects of the financial tsunami become more and more widespread, the first to be hit is real estate transactions.
The flight of capital and the continuous decline of social vitality have made the living standard of the city unbearable. Many people are fleeing the city, just like they poured into the city from the countryside a few years ago, and left in a daze.
Demand for real estate continues to dwindle, and real estate transaction volumes are hitting new lows every week.
The sluggish real estate transaction market will naturally lead to a decline in house prices, which is almost the same as that of stocks - transaction prices will become the coordinates of the trend chart. considerable.
It's many times easier to get a piece of land now, and the mayor runs the city and he knows that.
Knowing that these things won't affect the policies he implements, the mayor puts on a light smile on his face. The problems he has encountered recently have given him a headache for a long time.
He said in a good mood, "The ideas you told me last time have already been implemented, and we have made some breakthroughs."
This is a little sweetness for Lynch, he said a name, a young man is emerging on the diplomatic battlefield, and what is more interesting is that this young man happens to be the president's own son.
Something in the international community has not been passed back home, but that day is not far away.
While attending an international conference, the young gentleman encountered unfriendly people who made fun of him with his father, the president of the Commonwealth.
The general idea is that a supporter of isolationism would allow his son to attend an international conference, is it because the president tends to the pressure of domestic politics and has to compromise with the world, or is his son behind his father Got stabbed?
This is a very malicious joke, people are watching a good show, but this young man said something unbelievable - "Every era has a choice for every era, we can't force the fault of the era Personally, but as a father's child, as a young diplomat of the country, I will try to prove it to everyone."
"What the Baylor Federation lost, Mr. President lost, and all that we lost, I will win it back, for everyone!"
Sound and powerful words, firm and unquestionable determination, and his performance is completely different from all the previous diplomats of the Baylor Federation.
In the face of some malicious ridicule or even provocation, those people will only avoid it. Even if it is too much, they will raise some things to the height of the country, and then make a few words to expose it.
Few people will answer directly, and it is still such a completely different attitude that people realize for a while that the international policy of the Federation has undergone tremendous changes.
At the same time, the vice chairman of the Progressive Party has successfully reached some international cooperation intentions and strategic intentions with some countries, and the premise of all this is to let the current president of the Baylor Federation step down.
The change in the attitude of the federation has also given people in the international community a lot of face. They have already tossed the president of the Bayer federation to the point of getting out. If they continue to mess around, they will only push the federation to their opposite.
The outside is ready, the next step is to wait for the high degree of unity of domestic consciousness and social attitude, and complete the final step.
There is a lot of opinion on the president in society now, with politicians and media propaganda, all the guilt is being blamed on Mr. President, and people are happy to do it.
Many people are well aware behind their backs that social unrest and economic regression are not directly related to the president. He does not have the ability to destroy the country at once.
But everyone is happy to do it, because it's the only way to prove that it's not them, but the president.
After all, isolationism is essentially born in response to social needs. Mistakes have already occurred, so let those who can shoulder the responsibility take it.
The more people hate Mr. President, the more united the whole society will be. Seeing that the second round of voting on the President's impeachment case will begin in a few days, many groups spontaneously went to the Bupen Capitol to show solidarity. Those brave warriors.
Many believe this will be a turning point in the history of the Commonwealth.
But... Lynch is not as optimistic as ordinary people. In fact, the federal economy itself is built on the international hot money to avoid the war. unprecedented economic prosperity.
Now that these people have left, they will not come back due to changes in the federal international policy. It is unlikely that they will return to the way they were before for three or five years or more.
The next development speed will be beyond everyone's expectations, not fast, but slow, extremely slow.
"When these things are over ~IndoMTL.com~ we will fully liberalize free trade to a certain extent." The mayor said one of Lynch's most interesting words, eating a delicious steak.
Lynch, however, heard some of the problems, and repeated, "To some extent?"
The mayor put down his knife and fork and nodded, "Some research experts and scholars in the party believe that large-scale wars will not break out within ten years, and the way of wars may also undergo some changes, from armed wars to economic wars. ..."
In this world war, economic warfare has also gradually entered people's attention. Especially in the later period of the war, countries have found that large-scale shelling of commercial and industrial cities is far more effective in the medium and long term than shelling of frontline positions. .
The senior leaders of the Progressive Party are a little afraid that once free international trade is fully liberalized, some international hungry wolves may be introduced into countries with no experience and resistance, so it is only a certain degree of liberalization.
"What about me?", Lynch asked curiously, "How do I qualify for international trade?"
