The most famous thing in the Federation wasn't the president of the Federation, nor was it the navy of the Federation, but the workers' union of the Federation.
The workers' union could be said to be world-famous, because before this, the most common reports in the newspapers related to the Federation were mostly related to strikes in the Federation.
And this, it was impossible to ignore the group that organized the workers' strike — the workers' union.
Some countries also had workers' unions, but they were definitely not as magical as the Federation's workers' union.
In the words of some people who spontaneously praised the Federation, believing that the moon of the Federation was more radiant than the sun of their country, the workers' union represented the value and interests of the people at the bottom of society, bravely fighting against the forces of capital.
The workers' union was the sword that ordinary people used to defend their rights, the lightning that smashed the conspiracy of capital, the …
Well, the people at the headquarters of the workers' union were a little embarrassed. They weren't that great, but it was quite satisfying to hear others praising them.
But it was undeniable that the workers' union of the Federation had a fierceness that similar groups in other countries didn't have — for some political demands or more benefits, they would organize workers to go on a nationwide strike or march.
Whether it was the scale, the number of people who responded, the number of people who participated, or the final result, they were the best in the world.
When foreigners saw the Federation's various jokes, they could laugh heartily, and they would point to the television reports and say to the people around them, "Look, this is what happens in the developed countries."
They would treat these things as a joke, something that they could laugh about.
But when these things were about to happen to them, they couldn't laugh anymore.
And the workers' union could not only organize workers to go on strike, they could do many things.
"You didn't tell me that you were going to set up a workers' union locally!"
The president of the Chamber of Commerce was a little anxious, he seemed to have discovered Lynch's trap. As long as Lynch controlled the workers' union, it was equivalent to indirectly controlling their production.
If in the future, when both sides were fighting for the market, and they suddenly went on strike, then it would be over!
He took a step forward, his tone was a little unfriendly, "His Excellency the Governor will not agree with you doing this, we don't have the tradition of setting up a workers' union …"
"You are lying!"
Lynch retorted without hesitation, "There's also a workers' union in Gaffra, but it's called 'Workers' Home '. Actually, they're the same!"
Before the president of the Chamber of Commerce could say anything, Lynch suddenly changed his tone and comforted the president of the Chamber of Commerce. "Relax, it won't be as messy as the Federation's workers' union. Everything is under control."
"In fact, it was born to help you coordinate some of the problems between you and the workers. You know, the workers will never trust the capitalists, so the problems between the workers and the capital need a third party to intervene."
"The workers' union is such a medium. It won't become the thing you're worried about, but it can also solve some problems for you."
"You can't expect me to deal with everything that happens between you and the workers, right?"
Lynch seemed to be smiling when he said this, but his smile made people feel uneasy. "If I have to deal with everything, you have to pay me a salary. It's not cheap to hire me."
"Trust me, this won't be the beginning of a disaster …"
"And we've already signed a contract!"
It was unknown whether Lynch had convinced the president of the Chamber of Commerce, or his last sentence had an effect, but the president reluctantly agreed with an ugly expression.
"If these people disrupt our production plan and make some things in the factory uncontrollable, we won't compromise."
In the end, this matter was settled, and then they began to divide the people. Truckloads of people were sent away, and tomorrow, another truckload of people would be sent over. Each person could bring Lynch a piece of profit (Federation sol) every day. 40,000 people, 40,000 pieces of profit per day, and a monthly profit of more than 1 million Federation sol.
Of course, in fact, this money could not be calculated in this way. The workers' union's monthly income was about 800,000 to 900,000 for the expenses of maintaining and holding various activities.
Lynch did not intend to turn the workers' union into a big killing machine in the short term. The reason was very simple. If he used it too quickly, it would arouse the vigilance of all sides. Whether it was the Gaffra or the local people, they were all paying attention to it.
Only when they gradually relaxed their vigilance and became careless, would the workers' union really show its power.
With the addition of the Nagalil people, the whole city became full of vitality. Unlike the lifeless phenomenon of the past, the city finally ended the long winter and embraced spring.
From the next day onwards, there was a steady stream of people calling Lynch to ask about the labor dispatch cooperation. The Guevara People in Amelia had a labor shortage of varying degrees.
This was especially true in some of the more remote cities. These places were once places where anti-government militants were rampant. Because they were far from the core area, the Guevara People lacked the ability to control these areas. This also worsened the local situation, and more people joined the anti-government groups.
It was precisely because of this that in the process of suppressing the bandits, the hatred between these places and the Guevara People was greater than in other places, and their labor shortage was also greater.
This was a very large market and business. The entire Amelia province had a labor shortage of about 500,000 to 600,000 people, and this number would only increase with the development of the construction of this area.
When some of the Gefra's local factories moved over, the number would be two or even three times more than now.
But it was such a big bonus that Lynch couldn't swallow it all.
Because he didn't have that many people in his hands.
Under the control of Provincial Governor Dragon, the entire Mengu province had a population of about 7 to 8 million people.
Excluding women, children, the elderly, and some people who had lost their labor force, there were only about a million healthy adult males.
If these more than a million people were all pulled to Amelia, all the projects in Nagalil would instantly stop, which was not in Lynch's interest.
Moreover, the literacy classes were still going on. He could send tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of people over in a short period of time, but it was impossible to send more in a short period of time.
At the same time, some people in the joint development company also noticed the business here. After all, the profit of millions every month was enough to shock some people.
But compared to Lynch, these people's progress was a little slower.
At the same time, the president of the Lisbon Chamber of Commerce did not do nothing. When he knew that Lynch had established the workers' union, he went to the governor.
"Governor, you must know the influence of the workers' union on us. I obey His Majesty's design and ideas for the Amelia region, and I also agree that the empire does indeed need some changes."
"But I don't think we should copy the methods of some other countries."
"Some are suitable for us, and some are not. What do you think?"
The "some countries" he was referring to was the United Byler Federation, but it was not easy to talk about it now.
He couldn't say that the Gefra Empire had lost their courage because of a naval battle and began to take the initiative to learn the methods of the Federation. That would be absurd and laughable, and no one would admit it.
So when necessary, it was better to avoid it.
There was no expression on Governor Seder's face. He was very calm. He rubbed the ring on his index finger with his thumb and shook his head slightly. "There's nothing wrong with your idea, but you must not know that Lynch has registered a private company called the 'workers' union '."
"He operates the workers' union as a company, a business. We follow His Majesty's instructions and can't interfere in this situation. Do you understand what I mean?"
If the workers' union was a non-profit organization, a public welfare organization, then Governor Seder had the means to dissolve the workers' union through some means.
At worst, he could make it impossible for it to survive in the local area and directly reject the establishment and use of the workers' union in a legal sense.
But the problem was that the workers' union was now a company engaged in labor consulting and had complete registration information. Before it broke the local law, it was a legal private company.
If Governor Seder dared to shut down the company, Lynch might immediately mobilize public opinion and even go to the Gefra Empire to file a lawsuit.
He believed that Lynch could do such a thing. Judging from the trajectory of his development in the past few years, he was very good at using the rules as a weapon to fight for himself.
The thought of this gave Governor Seder a headache. He had never expected Lin Qi to do something so out of the ordinary and not give them a chance at all.
The president of the Chamber of Commerce was also in disbelief. A non-profit organization like the workers' union was a 'social organization' and not a 'company'.
He thought that Governor Seder would support him in shutting down the workers' union, but who would have thought that the workers' union was a f * cking company?
When he thought of how Lynch was one step ahead of him and how he was led by the nose by Lynch, the president of the Chamber of Commerce sighed heavily.
"It seems that we don't have a good way to deal with this situation now. We might lose some of our power."
He got up from his chair as he spoke. "Your Excellency, I have to go back and think about how to deal with this situation. I'll take my leave first."
The governor nodded. "Lynch is a person who is good at using the rules. If you want to defeat him, you have to defeat him fair and square. Otherwise, it will be difficult for me."
This was both a warning and a reminder.
