Blackstone Code Chapter 640: Unscrupulous
"Mr. Lynch, we have been waiting for a long time, please come in." Although the chairman of the chamber of commerce was not very good-looking, he still made an invitation.
Lynch took a leisurely look around. He took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket and took one in his mouth.
With a "chi" sound, the assistant beside him struck a match, covered it with one hand, and approached Lynch.
Under the soft light, Lynch's face was covered with a layer of red light under the light of the match.
He took two casual breaths and exhaled a puff of smoke, "I'm not from Gevra..."
The president turned his head to look at the sign, and then became furious, "Who put this thing here, and didn't take it away?"
Speaking, he walked straight down the steps and stood in front of Lynch, "I'm sorry, Mr. Lynch, there seems to be some mistakes in our work, I apologize for that."
"But please believe that this is definitely not our intentional behavior..."
The president has walked down the steps, and others are not suitable for standing on the steps, even if the steps are not very high.
From looking down, to normal times, and now being overlooked by others, the emotional changes of these businessmen are particularly interesting.
"I also believe this must be a misunderstanding!" Lyn Qi reached out and shook hands with the president of the chamber of commerce. After the two dealt with each other, under the leadership of the president of the chamber of commerce, Lyn Qi finally stepped onto the steps .
Under the unspeakable gaze, he entered the house.
These businessmen looked at each other at this time, and followed them up with no expression on their faces. This evening's meeting was held to welcome Lynch.
Compared to other federation merchants, Lynch has a natural special attribute - he is the baron of Gavra, and he is an imperial noble.
But this is only the seal of the emperor, there is no real seal, and various ceremonies have not yet been held.
In Gafra, the canonization of nobles is often carried out in autumn, which symbolizes the harvest season, which can be food, titles and more non-specific things.
In addition, in ancient times, after the canonization, the territory was allocated. If the canonization time was placed in the spring, it was very likely to miss the spring sowing.
If it is put in summer, the original owner of the land will be dissatisfied. Everyone knows that autumn will come after summer. At this time, allocating this land to others will waste half a year.
After the autumn harvest, the canonization is different. Not only does it have various symbolic meanings, but the wheat on the land is almost finished. At this time, there is nothing to argue about arranging a new lord to take office.
At the same time, the new lord can also organize a new planting plan as soon as possible. It must be known that during the period of the lord's fief, the seeds sown also come from the lord.
So for various reasons, the canonization is usually held after the autumn harvest, and the power and boundaries are determined before the arrival of winter.
History has developed step by step to today. There is no real "fief" in the Gafra Empire, and the nobles have no their own territory, but many customs have been preserved.
It's still summer, and Lynch can only be described as a "quasi-baron". As long as he doesn't get a real title for one day, he can't be regarded as a noble of the empire at all.
And this is also the reason why the businessmen dare to embarrass him. Besides, behind these businessmen are also large and small aristocrats, and their relationship within the empire is complicated, not a "federal nobleman" can easily get it down.
Secondly, everyone is more or less aware that this aristocrat of Lynch is not so good.
It is a very strange thing for a foreigner to be canonized as a noble in itself, and it is inevitable that people will not think more, and this was later requested by the emperor himself, not a product of some kind of diplomacy, people have More room for imagination.
This house is not particularly luxurious, because it is a local building, not built after the Gafra people came. They tried their best to choose some suitable houses to use, and others that were not suitable were given to garrison residence.
Although the house itself is not luxurious, they have since renovated it and it looks much better.
Led by the president of the Chamber of Commerce, Lynch walked through a corridor and came to a hall.
The moment Lynch stepped into the hall with his right foot, the conductor who was already ready suddenly raised the baton, and the slightly cheerful movement began to sound instantly.
As the music played, the entire hall seemed to come to life.
The messengers kept putting plates of food on the table, and some ladies came in in exquisite evening dresses to the accompaniment of music, which was a novel experience.
This is obviously an ordinary reception, but it can make people feel that it is different from the federal reception at this moment.
Everything here is too rules, too orderly, from the band's performance to the entrance of the valet to the entrance of the female guests, they have a whole set of procedures of their own rules, not like the federal reception. random.
And this is precisely the biggest cultural difference between the two countries, one with strict hierarchy and one with freedom.
"I'll introduce you to...", the chairman of the chamber of commerce stood in the crowd and introduced Lynch to the gentlemen and ladies who didn't greet him, "The one standing beside me is the newly promoted noble of the empire, Your Excellency the Baron from the Commonwealth, Mr. Lynch..."
What the **** and what? !
Lynch doesn't believe that such a big man can't even speak. Obviously, this is what he did on purpose. He didn't fight back immediately, but politely greeted everyone with his eyes and nods.
"Mr. Lynch, say something for us!", the chairman of the chamber of commerce looked at him with a smile, which was obviously a good way to embarrass Lynch.
They don't believe Lynch knows Amelia as he does Nagalil, and he doesn't even have friends here.
In this situation, surrounded by Gafra people, what would a person say when he is the only one from the Federation?
Generally, he will say some words that cater to the scene and most people. As long as Lynch says it, he will lose.
Looking at the flashing light in the eyes of the chairman of the chamber of commerce, Lynch already understood what the other party meant. This is not a conspiracy, it is a conspiracy.
Even if you know these things are problematic, you can't avoid them, you can't say no.
Lynch looked at these people and asked with a half-smile, "What should I say?"
Not waiting for the president of the chamber of commerce to answer him, he said to himself, "I'm not sure what I should say, I'm not a hypocritical person, I won't change my original intentions and stand to suit others.”
"I know you don't like me, not just me, you don't like the Commonwealth and the Commonwealth because we just did an 'unforgivable' thing."
"And now, I'm here again to do the same thing that you see as 'unforgivable' and have no way of coping!"
Shocked, he tore off the fake mask without hesitation. Looking at those stunned, surprised, unhappy, sullen, and demented faces, Lynch didn't feel at all for what he just said. Regret, the corners of his mouth were still slightly upturned.
Even if he says something nice and caters to these people, will these people accept him?
No, absolutely not, they will only reject him more unitedly. Since it is not enough to devalue yourself to achieve others and make these people change their stance, why should you wrong yourself?
Whether he says something nice or something unpleasant, these people will target him, so don't hide it.
He used the word "unforgivable" in this passage, which came from the mouth of Emperor Gefra, when he knew that his fleet was almost wiped out, this is what he was in the Palace of the Rulers The roar from above is unforgivable!
Lynch didn't hesitate to use the word to tell these people why he was here, and also used the word to tell the people here what he was going to do.
He's going to take profits out of these people's pockets, which is really "unforgivable" for these businessmen!
There is no vain compliment, only frontal fire.
Even the music in the hall was slightly off-key because of Lynch's words.
He stood in the center of the crowd, except for himself, everyone saw "enemies", but he was so confident and calm, he smiled and looked at other people, few people could look at him For a long time, mostly just a moment or half a second, the aggressive eyes were removed.
"Mr. Lynch..." The chairman of the chamber of commerce was a little overwhelmed. He thought that Lynch would say something to suit everyone, such as wishing everyone to get rich together.
After all, he doesn't know much about this place, and it makes sense to say something that blurs the boundaries, and then these words will spread out, and under the control and adaptation of people with a heart, he will become Lynch caters to the local chamber of commerce and caters to the performance of the empire.
The federal people kneel and lick the empire, isn't this exactly what the domestic gentlemen want to see?
But he never imagined that Lynch would directly fire at everyone here, even at the Gavra Empire.
This...
Did this **** drink too much?
You can't tell from his handsome face? !
The president of the chamber of commerce doesn't know what he has to say, but at this time, it is best to interrupt him, "I..."
His words hadn't come out yet~IndoMTL.com~ but was interrupted by Lynch, who raised his hand and put his hand on his arm, preventing him from continuing, "I know what you're going to say, I Very clear."
"I didn't come here to meet up with everyone, have a drink, say something to each other for the scene, and then pat on the buttocks and leave."
"Gentlemen and ladies, I'm here to do business, and I'm here to compete with you. Whether it's nationality or position, we're not on the same position, so we're both friends and enemies. ."
"I hope that we can respect each other, show our style, meet on our own 'battlefield', and fight stubbornly to the best of our ability as opposing sides."
"Win or lose!"
He gave the chairman of the chamber of commerce a sidelong glance, "Instead of using some meaningless tricks to make each other look down on each other!"
