Blackstone Code

The new year is a good one for the Federation, whose economy has improved somewhat. At least the people are not like previous years, where they have no life at all and are just like a bunch of living dead.

Now the employment rate has improved a lot. Although the average unemployment rate is still about 10%, it is much better than the previous two years. People are also very grateful to the federal government.

With a little money in hand, it was destined to be a lively night, and Bupen's sky stayed up all night.

There were some firecrackers everywhere, and some people wearing weird celebratory costumes were parading on the road in groups.

The thinking of the federal people is very strange. If they encounter something unhappy, such as their freedom being threatened, or their rights and interests being violated, they will express their demands and dissatisfaction through demonstrations.

But if they encounter something happy and want to share their happiness with others, they will also express their attitude and position through the parade.

This seems a bit... strange. It's hard to tell whether the parade is a good thing or a bad thing.

But then again, it's good that the way they express it is not to give someone a shot, which might lead to something stupid like "I killed him because I was so happy".

After everyone watched some programs together, Serra and Coleman went to the room on the second floor. Nell let the two girls go to the guest room, and he and Lynch continued to chat.

The father and son each held a wine glass and sat on the attic, looking at the bustling city below the mountain. The surroundings were filled with the atmosphere of wealth, which made people feel particularly peaceful.

"I thought you wouldn't talk to him even if you didn't beat him up..." Lynch shook the wine glass and took a shallow sip.

The two of them had drank some wine and were already a little smokey.

Nell looked strange, "Why do you think that I am a very violent person?"

He may have forgotten that he is really a very violent person. In the past, when he was still a worker, he would rarely reason with others because he was very tired.

Some people can't understand why a man can't reason with others when he's tired, especially women.

It's just physical fatigue. What else can I do if I say a few words?

But they can never understand that it is not only the body that is tired, but also the spirit.

The heavy work is only part of the fatigue, and the other part is the bleak future without hope. Every day repeats everything from the previous day.

Get up in the morning, eat breakfast that can't be said to be delicious or not, but definitely tired of it, then go to work, work until it gets completely dark, and then come back to eat breakfast that can't be said to be delicious or not. Had dinner.

Physical exhaustion and an unconscious despair enveloped everyone, and everyone was slowly moving forward on a fragile tightrope.

At this time, quarrels and arguments are not as direct and effective as a punch, and it can also vent the incompetent anger in the heart.

So don't reason with a man when he's tired, unless the woman wants to end the relationship or get a spanking.

At that time, Nell was like this, someone who could speak truth with his fists. This was the Nell in Lynch's memory, but now he has forgotten who he was in the past.

He looked at Lin Qi, who didn't speak. He suddenly burst out laughing, "I really am so bad..."

Smiling, he stopped laughing, took a sip of wine, and exhaled the alcohol in his belly with a heavy sigh, "Actually, it's nothing, I just feel that doing something for a little person will lose my face. "

After he finished speaking, he closed his mouth tightly. This was also his truest thought. It was so stupid to make himself embarrassed in front of others in the early stage.

He didn't know why he had such thoughts. If it were in the past, he would never think or do this.

With some alcohol, he was thinking about why he had turned into another person, into a person who even felt strange to him.

Lynch nodded, "Money is really a good thing. All the things that people lack when they are poor, you will slowly have them as your wealth increases when you are rich, or even everything."

"Education, quality, moral character...the more you owe, the more of these things you owe."

Nell was a little confused, "Just...just because we have money?"

Lynch nodded, but he was still confused, "Does money play such a big role?"

It seemed like I was asking Lynch, but actually I was more asking myself.

The role of money is really great, at least you can no longer see the original appearance in him. You can't see the man who was as tired as a dead dog waving tools all day long, dragging his tired pace back from the factory, and occasionally solving problems. transformed people.

He started talking about investing, talking about economics, and talking about finance. These were things that he had never dreamed of before, but now they have become a part of his life.

He shook his head, casually picked up a pack of cigarettes from the ground, lit one, inhaled slowly, and exhaled slowly, "Your mother and I have lived a very boring life over the past few years. She now feels that she has found happiness." , even if I don’t bless her, I won’t cause trouble.”

"What's more, that's not an asshole..."

It seems that Nel has also investigated Koeman. Apart from Koeman's personal misconduct, in fact, there is nothing obviously bad in terms of character and morality.

Even if it's a matter of private life, it's actually just to make more money and maintain some aloof relationship with those female customers.

If Serra could make him more money, his personal life would get tidy.

Nell took another drag on her cigarette, "Besides, she didn't say anything about me, did she?"

When talking about this issue, Nell was still a little proud, "You didn't see, that kid's eyes almost popped out, but actually I am the winner!"

Nell is already in his forties, but the two girls he brought back this time look like they are in their twenties, about the same size as Lynch.

The skin color of the two people may be slightly darker than that of the Federation people. After all, Nagaril is closer to the equator, but if you don't take this issue into consideration, in terms of appearance, they are also first-class beautiful girls in the Federation.

He brought two girls back in one breath, and Coleman couldn't wait to switch with Nell.

After Nagaril was dominated by the Federation people, an ideology soon emerged in the society. The Federation people were the largest in the world. Men were proud of the Federation workers and they could get their wages.

The girls are proud to be close to the federal people. Even if they are a lover for them, the treatment will be much better than if they go to work themselves or marry a local native of Nagaril.

He had good food, drink, money, and didn't have to go to work. If Nell wasn't too picky and didn't want to die of exhaustion in bed, he could have found a few more.

After the father and son chatted for a while, Nell suddenly said, "Your uncle wants to do it with me..."

Lin Qi didn't react for a moment, "Which uncle?"

Nell was not an only child, he had a brother and a sister.

My sister got married many years ago and has never been in contact again. For girls from poor families, marriage is sometimes more like a deal.

As long as they get married, they will never contact her again, and it will be treated as if she never had this child.

Nell's brother doesn't have much contact with him, and he didn't contact him often in the past. After all, none of them are rich people, they are all hard-working workers. It would be too expensive to communicate frequently.

If it is not necessary, try not to interact with each other, so that you can have some money left to buy gifts.

Speaking of gifts, this is also the most baffling part of Federation culture. There is a whole set of rules to bring what gifts to whom when visiting whom for what reason.

This step will not be omitted just because someone is having a hard time, or who is related to whom. Even if it is a visit between brothers, you must bring a gift.

As for private contact, it is not a formal visit. This is something that everyone avoids, because it often means that the other party has some needs, such as borrowing money or something.

Nell's brother had not contacted him in the past few years, and now when he suddenly mentioned this person, Lynch did not react for a moment or two.

"I remembered, you are an independent boss now. You can choose to hire or not hire that guy. You can make these decisions."

Nell breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this. It is true that Lynch is his son, but now the family's situation has changed due to some changes in Lynch. This makes him, as a father, sometimes feel confident when facing Lynch. Not quite enough.

Fortunately, Lynch gave him enough respect, as long as he didn't mess around.

Lin Qi could understand some of Nell's thoughts. Once he had the ability, he wanted to bring his relatives around him to make a fortune together. The idea was a good one, but people tended to ignore the role of interests.

Lin Qi once knew a boss who had a big business and many relatives came to visit him.

He was born in an area with a strong sense of clan. He couldn't refuse the requests of so many clansmen, so he finally came up with an interesting idea.

Establish several warehouses, build a fleet of vehicles, and toss some raw materials back and forth that are not used for production.

He is willing to spend millions every year to support these tribesmen and not let them enter the company. This is not because he has too much money or is ruthless, but because capital itself is insulated from family ties.

Sometimes even blood relatives may not be reliable!

From now on, if that uncle does well, forget about it. If he doesn't, the two of them will quarrel, and the relationship will be completely broken.

Sometimes people won't understand how cruel this world is to people unless they experience something!

After the father and son finished drinking, the night became darker. They helped each other down to the attic and went back to their rooms to fall asleep.
