When Mr. Trumann heard Lynch say such "cunning" words, he couldn't help but laugh.
He pointed at Lynch and said, "Looking at you reminds me of Rowlett in The Long River Epic!"
The Long River Epic was a story that revolved around the main river system that ran through the entire Gevra. It could also be said to be history.
In ancient times, when technology was not developed, people often lived in places where it was more convenient to get water, so many dynasties and forces were born around this river.
The Long River Epic mainly talked about a dynasty in the Middle Ages, and Rowlett was a jester who left a deep impression on people.
To a certain extent, the dynasty described in the book was destroyed by his hands, and he neither stood on the opposite side of the dynasty, nor did he kill the king. He just gave the king a lot of absurd suggestions!
Just like Lynch at this time, shouldn't the most important thing to do in this case be to find a way to warn the woman, and then advise the president to stay a little away from her?
But Lynch said that he wanted to clean up the mess for the president.
After Mr. Trumann finished laughing, he vaguely understood what Lynch meant.
His laughter gradually faded, and he began to think about the necessity of doing so.
There was no doubt that if they could handle it properly, then they would at least have a key card, and to a certain extent, they could better suppress the president's decisions in the future.
The president was a very easy person to persuade. He didn't want to have his own ideas so strongly. He was better at listening to others and then using others' experience.
When Mr. Trumann was in China, when he was in Boston, they often contacted each other.
He could often intervene in some issues as the "first contact" and "last contact," but what if he wasn't there?
If the president was persuaded by others, it would be a disaster for them.
His decision might not have direct serious consequences, but it would make people realize that Lynch and Mr. Trumann were not the only ones who could persuade the president.
Anyone could, as long as this person's voice became the only voice.
Politics was never polite, gentle, elegant, or gentlemanly!
As long as they could achieve their goals, politicians, capitalists, no matter who it was, they would use any means!
Squeezing out Mr. Trumann might seem inconceivable now, but when someone found out that it was not impossible, there would be countless people secretly saying bad things about Mr. Trumann in the President's ear.
It wasn't just ordinary people who needed insurance. Politics did as well.
Lynch's statement was somewhat offensive, but what he meant was that he had some leverage over them.
After thinking about it carefully, Mr. Trumann nodded slightly and agreed with Lynch's idea. "I can't take the lead in this matter. Let's do it secretly."
The Federation's government resources would never be controlled by a single person. This was a constitutional rule, and it was also something that the politicians were wary of.
They could tolerate themselves or their own people losing the election, but they could not accept that the power of the Federation government was in the hands of a dictator.
This also meant that this eternal power would constantly welcome many users, but there would never be a possessor.
When there were many people who supervised or used the power, there would be no secrets.
And if this kind of thing was done by Mr. Trumann himself, it would also create a gap between him and the President.
The more powerful a ruler was, the more they didn't want their mistakes to be known by the people around them. They had to maintain their image of making few or even no mistakes!
After talking about this problem, Mr. Trumann got up, walked to the window, and opened it.
He took out a cigarette and handed it to Lynch. "The situation in Gevra has been a bit tense recently. Have you noticed?"
Lynch put the cigarette in his mouth. The two of them put their heads together and lit it with the lighter in Mr. Trumann's hand.
He took a puff and nodded. At the same time, two puffs of smoke came out of his nose.
"They seem to be unable to hold back."
Mr. Trumann agreed with Lynch's judgment. "The World Development Committee is putting too much pressure on Gevra. They can't wait until everything is ready."
"I have some news. Maybe on the first day of the next year, they will make a move!"
The World Development Committee has shown its initial value, and other small countries that were watching at the beginning also applied to join the World Development Committee. And this put more pressure on Gevra than the war!
Even now, everyone knows that Gevra may not be the world's number one, but at least it should be in the top three.
The problem now is that people don't rely on it as much as in the past, which made Gevra quickly marginalized.
Gevra's representatives in the World Development Committee tried to make some examples to prove that Gevra's position in the world has not changed, but they can't do anything!
They can't make many orders to other countries. Gevra is just an island, and a small island.
Their production capacity is saturated, and the goods are piled up in the warehouse can't be sold. They can't spend money to buy a bunch of things that they don't need, just to make Gevra look more … powerful.
They can't license or transfer some of their cutting-edge technology to other countries for free. Science and technology are always the most fundamental thing of a country.
They can't make orders, but they still want to get orders from other countries, and they can't support other countries in terms of science and technology. Gevra's marginalization in the World Development Committee is not completely without reason.
Coupled with the strength of the Federation, people are more and more convinced that the era of the Federation has arrived.
This pressure from the international community made Gevra's prime minister understand that if they wait any longer, it will be too late!
When Gevra is abandoned by the whole world, even if they make the emperor give up his power, it will be meaningless to change the situation.
Coupled with other pressures, the atmosphere in the Gevra Empire is getting more and more tense!
Lynch knows some things, but he doesn't know the details. He's not the head of the international affairs department of the Federation, so he worries about the outside world every day.
Thinking about these things, he suddenly paused and turned to look at Mr. Trumann, frowning slightly. "You don't want me to go, do you?"
Mr. Trumann laughed. "It's good to be smart. I'm still thinking about how to say it, and you've already said it yourself!"
He nodded. "We need you to give our allies some help!"
"They want to end this farce as soon as possible, but …" He shook his head. "I don't think it's good for us to end this too soon."
"The World Development Committee is in a period of rapid development. We have to establish our authority here."
"Once the Guevara People get rid of the current situation, they will carry out a lot of large-scale reforms. This is not good news for us!"
The biggest problem in Gevra society now is the problem of class consolidation. The royal family will always hold the greatest power. The prime minister now seems to be on the same level as the emperor.
But if the emperor can really be ruthless, and the Gevra Empire's national strength will be seriously damaged, and the risk of civil war will be triggered to get rid of the nobles once and for all.
As long as the royal family does not fall, the pariahs will always be pariahs, the commoners will always be commoners, the nobles will always be the nobles, and the emperor … his children will always be the emperor.
The completely unchanged class system is no longer suitable for the rapid development of the great international society. The reform of Gevra will shatter all of this and make the country, which has been emitting a rotten smell, full of vitality again!
Everyone has the potential to become a noble in the new era, a privileged class, and even a ruler!
Once Gevra has a new round of vitality, it will once again occupy an important position in the World Development Committee, and may be able to compete with the Federation.
Slowing down the pace of reform of Gevra has been identified as the most important international strategy at present.
But at the same time, the emperor cannot be allowed to regain power. A dictator, a dictator who once lost power, will become a disaster for the world!
Lynch almost understood what Mr. Trumann meant. After a moment of silence, he nodded and agreed. "I think I know what you mean. When do I leave?"
"In two days!"
Two days always passed by very quickly. People might not realize what happened two days ago, but it had been a long time since they had last seen it.
The peace talks between the three parties were still going on. In the process, there may be some "offline transactions". The Federation sent a delegation to Gevra for a visit, and Lynch was one of them.
In fact, even if Mr. Trumann did not ask, he would have gone to Gevra after a while.
Sailing on the sea is boring. Many people will have an illusion when sailing on the sea, that the ship is always in the same place.
Without any effective reference, this kind of depressing atmosphere was enough to drive people crazy.
In the Middle Ages and even modern times, there were many shipwrecks. Some of them were due to irresistible natural factors, while others were due to emotional loss of control.
Fortunately, the voyage was not too long. Three days later, Lynch and the others got off the ship at the easternmost port of Gevra.
From the moment he stepped foot on this land, Lynch could smell the danger in the air.
It was at this time that the young count walked towards him.
"Welcome, Lynch!"
He shook hands with Lynch and then hugged him. Their relationship was much closer than people thought.
The two hugged and then separated. Sitting in the young earl's luxurious carriage, he asked a question he was very concerned about.
"When do we start?"
