At this time, the people of Nagalee should be happy. Fortunately, at least they did not choose the wrong side.
After a long negotiation, the Federation and the United Kingdom of Nagalee signed a large contract. The Federation government would help Nagalee develop its industrial base, build infrastructure, and even help them achieve a certain degree of public education.
The whole society looked at the amazing numbers, and after the praise for the heroes cooled down a little, they shifted their attention away from the disposal of the commander-in-chief of the naval fleet to the issue of the development of Nagalee.
This time, whether it was the president or the ministers of the various departments, it was not as simple as the first time. Instead, they explained the contents of these contracts in detail.
These contracts were not a "traitorous agreement", and it was impossible to use the Federation's money to help Nagalee develop their country. The people needed to understand some of the contents in more detail.
For example, the labor dispatch system and overseas employment. Nagalee would become an employment base.
Compared to praising the heroes, they were actually more concerned about when they could fill their stomachs and when they could get the opportunity.
For now, Nagalee was a good place.
Lynch had been publicizing for a long time in the early stages, and people had gradually begun to accept what he said, such as gold being everywhere in Najalil.
The large contract stimulated the economy and the market. On the day the Ministry of Foreign Affairs announced the contract, the Federation's financial market rose again, and more stocks began to recover. The situation was good.
That night, the president even appeared on TV. He told the people of the country that the contract signed with Nagalee would provide at least hundreds of thousands of jobs for the citizens of the Federation overseas, and maybe even more.
And this was only the Federation's first step into the world. As the Federation established a business cooperation relationship in more parts of the world, as long as the people of the Federation were willing to work, they would be able to get a job.
The president's speech was not sensational, nor was he excited. He just calmly used some data to describe what would happen in the future to the audience in front of the TV.
But it was precisely this kind of performance that won the approval of the people of the Federation. This also allowed the president to achieve a peak of popularity for the first time since he came to power.
In the eyes of some analysts, the chances of Mr. President winning the election in a year and a half were very high, far higher than when he first came to power half a year ago.
Even in the Progressive Party, the party leader and the party chairman (committee chairman) did not talk about "capable people should take more responsibility." What it really meant was "those who are not capable should not force themselves to take on more responsibilities."
The President's goodwill and support for the military also reversed his disadvantage in terms of support within the party. People no longer often talked about his failure in the last election and the losses it brought to people. Some people even thought that the President's failure in the last election was a strategy.
They just so happened to have survived the most dangerous period and let the Conservative Party bear all the losses. Then they ushered in a new dawn and sent the Federation to the top.
When a person was down and out, even if what he said was right, people would think that it was just his twisted soul struggling unwillingly under his ugly appearance.
When a person began to run to success, even if he farted in the process, people would study how the fart helped him to run to success and cheer for the fart.
In such a leisurely evening, Lynch was invited to a small banquet hosted by Mr. Vaudric.
On the one hand, Mr. Vaudric had some questions to talk to him, and on the other hand, he wanted to express some gratitude, a very faint kind. But no matter how faint it was, gratitude was gratitude.
"When I discuss with Mr. Lynch …" and "Lynch first …" These obviously flattering words played a key role in Mr. Vaudric's persuasion of the board of directors.
Mr. Vaudric's consortium was no longer a consortium in a narrow sense — it was a terrible economy.
It was a fully stretched monster, with tentacles in every corner of the whole society. Whether it was capital or politics, they were deeply involved.
These people naturally knew that in recent months, Lynch and Trumann were the core of everything. They provided the right choice for Mr. President, allowing him to walk to the end and have the last laugh.
Therefore, when Mr. Vaudric mentioned Lynch when persuading these people, they had to take what he said seriously. Finally, he moved these people.
It was difficult to persuade those old fogeys to put the next stage of the consortium's interests in the international community, but he did it. Therefore, he held a small banquet to celebrate this point.
In the culture of the Federation, success was something that deserved to be flaunted and should be flaunted. If a person achieved success but didn't flaunt it, people would feel puzzled.
This was the culture of the Federation. Even if Mr. Vaudric's opponents knew that he was flaunting at this moment, they would still maintain their dignity and say with a smile, "He deserves it."
"Mr. Lynch is here..."
Mr. Wardrick and his wife were chatting with an invited couple. Today's banquet was held in their manor, and the atmosphere was more relaxed. The invited guests were his close business partners and friends, and each of them had brought a female companion.
Mr. Vaudric continued to chat with the couple in front of him with a smile as if he didn't hear it. After about three to five sentences, the other party politely stopped the conversation. Then, Mr. Vaudric excused himself and left.
Walking in the corridor, Mr. Vaudric's wife asked curiously, "Do you value this young man very much?"
"Then is it possible that he will become our daughter's husband?"
His wife asked another question.
This question caused a subtle change in Mr. Waldrick's expression. "It's unlikely, but it's not completely impossible."
"I thought you would say 'yes' or 'very likely'. You value him very much!"
The two walked through the long corridor and stood at the door at the end of the corridor. Mr. Vaudric took the initiative to put his hand on the door handle and twisted it, "It depends on how fast he develops. I think it will take a while, but our daughter can't wait that long."
As he spoke, he opened the door and made a gentlemanly gesture for a lady to enter first. His wife walked through the door with a smile and waited for him on the other side of the door.
"Lynch has a lot of good ideas, but you know, there will never be a shortage of young people with such ideas in this world."
"Those young scientists think much more than Lin Qi. Some of their ideas, some of their inventions, can directly change the world."
"If Lynch wants to become Sevillera's husband, he must first have a social status similar to ours, influence, and other things."
Lynch's current influence was limited to a very narrow level. Beyond this level, his influence was useless. For example, if he made some business suggestions to those consortia, those consortia's board of directors would only treat his words as fart.
Only when he made some suggestions on international relations would the consortium's board of directors seriously consider it, but they still couldn't trust him completely.
His foundation was still too shallow. This might be harsh for many more ordinary people, and it even seemed to be an impossible task.
However, there were still such people in the Federation. For example, Mr. Vaudric himself. No matter who he raised any opinions or suggestions to, the other party would seriously consider and respond, regardless of whether he was good at the issues he raised.
People valued his opinions, and they wouldn't decide to listen or ignore him just because he knew or was good at something. This was the huge influence at play all the time.
This was the gap. In addition, there were also social status, political influence, and so on. Among the many factors, wealth had become the last one.
"You're making things difficult for him!"
Mr. Vaudric's wife covered her mouth and laughed softly.
Mr. Vaudric shook his head slightly. "For people like us, life is a business!"
Outside the manor, Lynch turned around when he heard the sound of the door opening. "Good evening, Mr. and Madam Waldrick!" He greeted with a smile that was hard to dislike. "Good evening, Mr. and Mrs. Waldrick!"
"Good evening..."
The two men shook hands and then walked into the room together.
Mr. Vaudric's manor was very large, and this was his foundation.
There was a huge manor in the core area of Bhupain, so much so that he could hold a cocktail party in a side hall of the manor. This foundation was definitely not comparable to those who could only hold a cocktail party in a hotel. This was also one of the reasons why he felt that Lynch still needed to work hard.
"I read today's newspaper..." On the way to the side hall, the two men naturally talked about some of the things that happened today. "After a while, the group plans to send a team to Nagalil for a field inspection. Do you have any suggestions?"
"I suggest..." Lynch chuckled a few times. "It's best not to send employees who don't have a harmonious relationship there. For some people, it's hell, but for others, it's heaven."
"Until now, they still abide by the polygamy system. As long as the men are capable, they can marry as many wives as they want!"
Mr. Vaudric's wife couldn't help but say, "How ignorant!"
Mr. Vaudric grinned. "Yes, how barbaric!"
