"You've been very active recently!"
In the embassy, Mr. Trumann looked at Lynch, who was dressed like an aristocrat, and couldn't help but tease him. "Even in the Federation, newspapers often report news related to you. Everyone is very interested in those things about you."
As a native of the Federation and a Guevra aristocrat, Lynch's popularity in the Federation was second only to the election.
If he had some extraordinary background, for example, if he was a descendant of the Agincourt family, or if he was related to Mr. Vaudric by blood, people wouldn't pay too much attention to this young man.
Because in the Federation, which was a magical country, capital could always create miracles. People were no longer as interested in the miracles created by capital as they used to be in the past years.
News about people being admitted to universities and colleges of the Federation because of "excellent cooking skills" or "pleasant singing" was no longer as popular as it was in the past years.
If someone really believed that a student could be admitted to the best university just because he knew how to grill steak, then he must be a fool. Although many people did believe it at first.
The university interview was a magical process. The exam score was not important, but the interview was the most important. At this time, the most important way to enter the university was to fully display one's talents and take out the recommendation letter that one had prepared for a long time.
Lynch didn't have such an amazing background. He wasn't the child of a big capitalist, nor was he the descendant of a big politician. He was just the descendant of the working class.
Like most ordinary people, he started a new life after finishing high school and drifted in and out of society.
So the more successful he was, the more attention he attracted. People didn't pay attention to him just because of admiration or envy. People paid attention to him because they were willing to use him as an example to tell themselves that society was not as dark as people thought.
Look!
There's a boy who came out of us, and he's not worse than anyone else!
The Federation government also gave a lot of help in this regard. They pushed this news to occupy various news lists, making it always a hot topic.
The Federation government and capitalists knew very well that blindly exploiting and oppressing the working people wouldn't bring long-term benefits.
Only by using scientific methods to squeeze the value out of people would they be able to last long.
Give people hope, give them an example, and give them the motivation to work hard. Finally, use the necklaces called "social insurance" and other basic necklaces made for a better life in the future to firmly put on people's necks.
In this way, people would not stand up and raise the weapons in their hands to defend their freedom and rights. They would only obediently stand on the ground with their hands and feet, working hard like animals in the sunless mill.
Lynch was such a spice. At least he told people, especially those at the bottom, that there was still hope.
In response to Mr. Trumann's teasing, Lynch only responded with a smile, "I thought you wouldn't come!"
Lynch was a little surprised when he heard that it was Mr. Trumann who led his team to Guevara.
After all, the presidential election was just around the corner. He should be busy with the election work in the election office, instead of coming overseas to represent the Federation to discuss some in-depth cooperation.
Mr. Trumann immediately guessed what Lynch wanted to express. He curled his lips, "Mr. President has hired … a team. They don't need me for the time being."
The … a man that Mr. Trumann was talking about was a relatively famous campaign team for Bob Paine. Among their core members, there were five former congressmen. The man whose name was still unknown was also the leader of this campaign team. At the same time, he himself had been a governor for eight years. His father was once a president of the Federation.
In Bob Paine's major campaign teams, seniority was also a very important evaluation. For example, some successful campaign teams were almost all former politicians. A large number of congressmen, governors, and state legislators would join this industry after retirement.
Or they would simply take the initiative to resign halfway to join this industry!
It was not that those people were stupid, but this industry was really too profitable. As long as they succeeded once, there would be a continuous stream of income in the future.
At the same time, this was also a rule of the Federation.
The president would choose a suitable campaign team to serve him. After this team started work, they would take over the president's campaign fund account and control the money in it.
A smart team would be able to make full use of every detail according to the campaign fund in it, ensuring that all the money would be spent in the end. Sometimes, there would be a situation where there was not enough money, but not much.
This required sufficient experience to know how to spend all the money reasonably. At the same time, this team also needed to have a great influence in Congress and domestic politics.
In history, there was no lack of examples of presidents who set up their own campaign teams after retirement or joined the campaign team.
Every campaign, every four years, would bring hundreds of millions of profits to this industry.
From the president to the city councilors, they all needed professional consulting services. This had become an industry chain.
Mr. Trumann could not get involved in the core of the campaign, so he simply brought his team to Geffra and familiarized himself with his next work in advance.
After all, he was the first minister of the International Affairs Department. In the future, he would be relied on more in foreign affairs. It was also good for him to contact the leaders of various countries.
After briefly explaining the situation, Mr. Trumann did not mention it again. He believed that Lynch knew the twists and turns in it.
Now, Buen was even more lively than during the festival. Walking around the presidential palace, there were all kinds of people in formal clothes, with a look of "I'm a politician" on their faces, walking around in a hurry.
The quadrennial large-scale political trading event was about to begin, and it was full of irritation.
"I didn't expect Geffra to be so lively recently. Does it have anything to do with you?"
Mr. Trumann looked at Lynch. His intuition told him that Lynch must have something to do with these things. He had a more intuitive understanding of Lynch than others.
He knew very well what kind of person Lynch was. He was very careful, very bold, very opinionated, and did not have much moral sense. As long as he wanted to do something, he would not care about the consequences. The most important thing was that he had wisdom.
If these words used to praise the excellent qualities of human beings were used on different people, it would definitely make these people stand out. However, if they were used on the same person at the same time, it would be a little troublesome.
Smart people would never know their place. Lynch could prove this.
Facing Mr. Trumann's almost certain gaze, Lynch smiled and nodded. "A little bit, but not very much. I just gave it a push."
"Some contradictions are accumulated at the bottom of society. I just found a breakthrough for these pressures. The rest has nothing to do with me."
It seemed to be a modest statement, but Mr. Trumann could feel Lynch's deeply hidden pride.
With his own strength, he set off a political storm in an unfamiliar country. He was indeed qualified to be proud.
Mr. Trumann nodded. "So, what's the direction of this matter?"
"How far will it go before it stops?"
Lynch glanced at the sunlight outside the window. The weather was very cold. Even though there was sunlight outside, it was bone-chilling, just like the mood of some people.
"It's almost over."
This political storm was about to come to an end. The rulers exchanged benefits and got what they wanted. At the same time, they also released some pressure.
They would quietly hibernate and wait for the next opportunity to come.
A group of small nobles led by Lynch expressed their loyalty to the Emperor. They were willing to develop in Ameria. This made the Emperor very satisfied. In addition to giving them a certain degree of tax exemption, he also agreed to some of their conditions.
For example, the rules of the industry would be more liberal. The domestic business and political rules would not be directly applied to Ameria.
At the same time, some of the small nobles would have some official positions in Ameria.
The Imperial Royal Bank would also give them low-interest and interest-free loans to help them quickly develop their businesses.
People's attention quickly shifted from the political storm and social unrest caused by Yuan Rong Capital to the new round of business cooperation and negotiations between the Federation and Gefra.
People were forgetful, especially those who had nothing to do with it. The wound wasn't on them, so they would forget it as soon as they turned around.
However, Lynch wasn't so forgetful. In Gefra's first prison, he met with his former partners.
After Richard's suicide, these people were immediately put under control. Their dreams of getting rich were completely shattered.
Their assets were all confiscated. Some of them would never be able to leave prison in their lifetime. Some even had to face the end of their lives.
Lynch came to the prison this time to see these people off. They mainly wanted to see Lynch. The prison conveyed this request. After some consideration, Lynch agreed to their request.
This time, the meeting was in the afternoon. In a room with a faint smell of disinfectant, Lynch met the five Federation people who were about to be executed.
They applied to return to their country to be tried, but Gefra didn't approve. The Federation didn't ask either.
In this special time, the presidential election not only had to take into account the domestic situation, but also the international situation.
It was just a few criminals. There was no need to risk the conflict with Gefra to extradite them.
Wasn't it the same wherever they were sentenced?
Why did they have to come back?
