Blackstone Code

The congressman refused Lynch and Mr. Trueman's farewell and left alone.

Just like what he said at the dinner table, the current timeline is very delicate. The general election is approaching, and the national attention is highly concentrated. Any small thing will be magnified into a big trouble.

This is also a good time to bring down some political opponents before the new president takes office. Any swayed public opinion will be particularly powerful during this period, and all politicians must treat it with caution.

He would not give the green light to this project just because his son designed the aircraft design and became Lynch's partner. He must make a comprehensive consideration based on the actual situation before giving his own opinion, a fair one. , neutral opinions without any interest coloring.

This is his persistence and bottom line as a congressman, which is touching.

After watching the congressmen leave, Trueman and Lynch stood on the balcony of the restaurant and looked down at the entire Bupen. Both of them were somewhat emotional, and neither of them spoke for a while.

After probably several minutes, Mr. Trueman sighed, "Are you really so willing to give it up?" He laughed, "This is fifteen million!"

Lynch asked, "Is it too late to ask me now?"

The two looked at each other and laughed.

The company Lynch used the money to establish was not only to manage the interests of the congressmen, but also to satisfy some of the interests of the military's top brass.

Soldiers are also human beings, and generals are even more human. They are not only soldiers, but also the children of their parents, the husbands of their wives, and the fathers of their children.

Everyone hopes for good not only for themselves, but also for their families. Some of their family members are arranged in various military-industrial enterprises or in fields related to the military.

Some people have expressed dissatisfaction with this, but the special nature of the army leaves no place for these dissatisfaction to vent.

If you are really dissatisfied with these things, you can go to a military court to sue these soldiers.

If Lynch wants to satisfy all parties, he cannot be stingy with the equity in his hands, which is money.

The courage to give fifteen million away to others shocked Trueman first, so he asked this question.

"When we are enemies of a certain system, everyone under this system will become our enemies. This is not a smart choice."

Lynch said and began to talk about some of his ideas seriously. Now the core of their group is him and Mr. Trueman.

There must be no misunderstanding between these two people, otherwise their small group will not be able to go far.

Mr. Trueman took out a cigarette and gave one to Lynch. After the two put their heads together and lit the cigarette, Lynch continued, "It's like you have to deal with a corrupt official. The enemy can only be him, not the entire group of officials."

"If you do that, you will become everyone's enemy. Just like what you encountered this time, almost all consortiums expressed dissatisfaction with your behavior. Even if you can defeat one or two, there will still be others. The third and the fourth and more.”

"What we have to do is not to be an enemy of the entire system. What we have to do is to hollow out this group little by little without disturbing it!"

"During this process, we can't just stay aloof, but also integrate into this group and become like them. Only in this way will they watch us biting dogs instead of uniting to fight against 'external pressure.'"

"The military will be our biggest help, and they really need more political allies!"

Whether it is the military or the politicians in Congress, they are actually deliberately avoiding each other. Collusion between politicians and the military is definitely not interesting news, but there is a need for both parties to collude with each other.

Lynch is not the first point, not the last point, and not the only point. He just provides more convenience for the military and members of Congress.

Mr. Trueman pressed his hands on the guardrail at the edge of the balcony. He bent slightly and looked down at the bustling Bupen. After a while, he asked a question, "Can we win this war?" ?"

"We must win!"

In the next few days, one after another young people in the Federation suddenly proved their outstanding abilities in certain aspects, such as new engines, and breakthroughs in materials. In short, these young people began to appear in some newspapers. Every corner.

The federal media are sometimes so bold that they even dare to expose the president’s dirty stuff.

But sometimes they are very timid, and they never dare to casually publish content related to some members of Congress or the military.

Just as people are rejoicing that young scientists in the Federation are emerging one after another, the cargo ship carrying the latest engines has left the port, and the first batch of twelve generator sets will cross the Upper Strait and arrive in the Amelia region.

The bidding for Amelia also came to an end. Unsurprisingly, the federal businessmen headed by Lynch completely lost to the Gaevra businessmen in this bidding.

This news is nothing more than normal news for most people in the world. If someone wins a project tender, someone will definitely lose. This is normal.

Only those who are truly involved in these things know what these mean.

The federal businessmen who were still relatively active began to restrain themselves, and the Gaevra businessmen became arrogant again, and they also planned to destroy Lynch's value.

They are actively contacting countries with strong armies in the hope of getting some military assistance from these countries through politics or employment.

I have to say that the Governor of Amelia is very thoughtful. If this plan succeeds, then this region and even the country will be able to get rid of Lynch's influence - Lynch's influence on the Gaevra royal family and this region is based on His men were able to quickly eliminate those armed militants.

Even though the Gaevra people had suffered numerous defeats before, they were unwilling to admit that their army was like a waste.

Now, they are beginning to face up to this problem. It is much better to bring in Allied forces to solve it than to give up their interests to Lynch and the federals.

In fact, at the end of the day, they were still furious because Gefra lost to the Federation in the naval battle.

Just when Lynch's arrogance was about to be suppressed, what the Governor of Amelia Seder was waiting for was not the news that the generator set had docked, but that the cargo ship had disappeared.

"What's going on?" Governor Seder couldn't believe his ears when he received the news. "It's a day's journey. The cargo ship is slower. It should be here in two days. Why is there no news yet?"

For two whole days, no cargo ship from the Federation docked, and the cargo ship seemed to disappear out of thin air.

The Federation was also very curious. Logically, they would reply to the letter after the cargo ship arrived at the port of Amelia, but after waiting for two days, there was no news, and people became confused for a while.

The people under his command knew nothing, and Governor Seder could only hope that his son would know something.

Then he made a call, and two minutes later, Soren picked up the call.

"Where did the ship arrive?" he asked without any nonsense.

"I don't know. We are investigating here. It may be... related to pirates."

"Pirate?" Governor Seder laughed immediately, but his laughter was filled with anger after being fooled. "Are you a fool, or do you think I am a fool?"

"There can't be pirates on this route. Now pirates all over the world know to stay away from the Federation. Are you talking about pirates?"

Since the Federation defeated Gaevra in the naval battle, pirates in the entire western part of the Eastern Ocean have basically disappeared, and no one will risk offending Gaevra and the Federation on this route. Do something on.

So when Governor Seder heard that it was pirates, he immediately became furious. Was he being treated like a child?

Sauron laughed dryly, "The federal search and rescue ship has already started. If nothing goes wrong, there will be news soon."

"How soon is soon?"

"……have no idea."

After hanging up the phone, Governor Seder quickly calmed down. His first thought was Lynch, which made him feel troubled. He didn't know how Lynch did it, but he just had it. The feeling is absolutely inseparable from Lynch.

But the problem now is not just the disappearance of the ship. What makes him feel troublesome is the liquidated damages in the contract.

He cannot pay the liquidated damages of up to 900 million federal soles, and this money may even affect his status.

This sounds ridiculous, but it is the fact. Money and face have been lost. The emperor will definitely be angry. The only thing to do now is not to find those ships, but to blame them.

He picked up the phone again and dialed Solan's number. As soon as the call was connected, he lowered his voice slightly and said, "Remember, you must advocate your position to everyone. We signed an installation contract with the Federation. We are not responsible for it, nor do we acknowledge any transportation problems..."

Sauron's reaction was quick, "You mean... the federal people might put the responsibility on us?"

"You know it with your brain. Even I wonder if the federal people sailed away by themselves. They can get 900 million in compensation without paying anything. This may not be impossible, even Lin It’s possible that Qi set up a trap with them.”

"Don't use the thoughts of the Gefra people to speculate on those federal people who put their interests first. They even dare to impeach the president in order to seek benefits. Remember what I said, and no matter what, don't bear responsibilities that we don't need to bear!"

"Everything has nothing to do with us. You can pay attention but you must not express your opinion..."

The disappearance of a cargo ship attracted the attention of two major powers in a very short period of time, and even Emperor Gaevra asked about the matter.

If they were not afraid of causing misunderstandings, they would all want to send warships to the Upper Strait to find the missing freighter.

You know, at this moment, those advanced thermal power generating units have not yet installed destructive shells, which also means that they can dismantle all the generating sets without damage and master the technology of the Federation!

Governor Seder, who was sitting in the study, frowned and looked into the distance. The sky was covered with a shadow and it was about to rain.
