Chapter 1740 Family Problems
Once December is over, it is the New Year.

It's been a busy New Years this year, at least around Lynch, or at least Bu Paine.

There are people holding parties and carpe diem everywhere, and you can also see a group of people wearing New Year's costumes on the street, drinking grape juice with flushed faces.

Not long after it was established, the Bureau of Contraband Investigation, which already has a certain "word of mouth" and influence within the federal government, seems to have acquiesced in people's indulgence at this time.

At least they didn't come out and stir shit and mess up people's happy mood!

If there is anything that people are not satisfied with in the new year, not being able to drink heavily may be the only regret!
People have started to adapt to higher taxation standards, and at the same time the government has arranged some relief measures, people are not as complaining as they were at the beginning.

People can pick up kraft-packed wheat kernels, canned soybeans, sauces and butter at the relief point every week.

Although not much, but at least it is an attitude.

In the new year, the weather is also extremely cold.

Lynch had just finished his stroke and was lying on the bed watching TV and smoking a cigarette.

Originally, he had some entertainment, after all, it was the new year, but he didn't want to participate in any of those entertainment, not important is also a reason.

He arranged for other people from the company to attend and hid himself at home.

Penny has been here for several days, and since Lynch's birthday ended, she seemed to have completely let go of some unrealistic ideas.

Sometimes people are like this, thinking too much will make people look heavy.

Only by letting go of those things can it become easier.

After becoming relaxed, Penny seemed to have returned to the way she was when she was seventeen or eighteen a few years ago. She was very enthusiastic, positive, and somewhat indescribably fearless.

It may be that I really have no idea at all, but I can treat everything equally.

There were three women on the bed, two maids and Petunia, but Nellie didn't come.

She is gradually moving towards "independence". After Lynch broke away from Fox Films, Nelly immediately felt that her position in Fox Films had somewhat changed.

Capital is actually very realistic. Even if Little Fox and the shareholders don't say anything, the top and middle management will know how to make adjustments.

They have relatively seldom reduced the resource push to Nelly. In the entertainment industry, especially in the film industry, if there is no resource and does not appear in front of the camera, it will soon be forgotten by people.

This also made Nelly realize that if she doesn't make any changes and just stays as a vase, her life will come to an end.

She talked with Lynch once, on the phone. She wanted to study while working, and Lynch gave her enough support for this.

Lynch is not a stingy person, nor does he feel materialistic thoughts like "I fucked this girl, this girl belongs to me in this life".

People have thinking and feelings, and they also have the life and choices they want.

Lynch will not stop anyone from leaving him. When a person has such an idea, no matter what you do, it will not change the ending of her leaving you in the end.

Now Nelly is studying at a university related to film, and her idea is to change from an actor to a director.

In fact, she didn't say anything further, but Lynch also knew it.

Her former good friend is also a signed actor of Fox Films.

When nothing changed before, because Nelly leaned against Lynch and had a lot of resources in her hands, she could somewhat support her friend.

But now the situation has changed a bit. Nelly herself can't get too many resources, and naturally she can't support her friends.

The girl started running around again, and she would lug a suitcase with some uniforms of nurses, police officers, whatever.

There are also some costumes from her past roles.

She will appear outside a certain door at a certain time, then arrange her clothes, and go in to serve the gentleman or gentlemen inside.

Fox Films is getting bigger and bigger, it needs to overcome more and more difficulties, and it needs to unite with more and more friends.

Many people are not short of money, at least they will not bow their heads for tens of thousands of dollars, or even a little more, 10,000+, 30 to [-].

For these people, they don't care about small money, and Fox Pictures can't afford big money, so these second- and third-rate female stars have become the key.

They can help the company solve many obstacles in the way, and the company just needs to give them the opportunity to touch their dreams from time to time.

Nelly's idea is very simple. As an actress, she has discovered her upper limit, and she can't help those people.

But as a director you can.

For this choice, Lynch is very supportive.

She is willing to be an independent girl, that is her decision, Lynch will only bless her.

As for the others, some were not used to the atmosphere here, and Penny was simply too crazy.

Even Momo can't stand her!
At this time, Penny, who was watching the whole battle, walked to the bed with a cowboy hat and a small whip in her hand, smiling all over her face.

She put on something interesting for herself, and said to the little maid with a smile, "The night has just begun..."

Crazy night!
The next morning, Lynch woke up with a pain in his waist. He used to ride someone else, and he was ridden by someone last night.

Sometimes men and women are really not equal, especially when it comes to biology!
But overall, it's fun.

In the morning, while Lynch was reading the newspaper, Penny also came out of the room fully dressed.

She sat across from Lynch and looked at Lynch, "You know, she is experiencing a family crisis!"

Lynch froze for a moment, but didn't respond, "Who?"

The little maid pouted, "Our cook!"

Lynch turned to look at the kitchen, where the little maid was busy.

Lynch is not a picky person when eating, so he didn't hire a special cook to work for him, and the little maid was responsible for all the meals at home.

Sometimes when a banquet is needed, the community service company or the little earl are happy to arrange a cook to come over to help Lynch solve his troubles.

Lynch turned around and didn't quite understand, "What's wrong with her?"

"Family crisis!", Penny repeated.

"Her husband may be a little suspicious of her. You know, after all, you can't get so much money as a maid for a month!"

She looked a little gloating when she spoke. The little maid's husband was a plumber, a well-paid job.

But that's just not bad, he and the little maid's wages on the books are a little nervous to pay the monthly bills.

After the war came, the tax rate was raised a lot. Logically speaking, they couldn't afford to pay so many bills, but they could still pay!
There is a very interesting phenomenon in the community culture of the Federation.

In the low-level federal communities, those poor places, if someone becomes rich, people will not ask you where the money came from, whether it is legal or not.

They just want to work for you, for example, they can hang out with you, become your subordinates, and you just need to pay them a little salary!

The needs of the underlying community are actually more realistic. What they care about is whether they can get anything from this matter.

In high-end communities, like the Banshan villa area, there is not much communication between residents.

Only in high-end communities, developers, and community service companies will talk about issues such as privacy.

They will isolate the direct contact between the two residents, and if there is any problem, it will be solved through the community service company.

They don't point fingers at others, they just don't care.

Middle-class communities are at the other extreme. They are very interested in what the surrounding residents do, how much they earn, and whether they have investments.

There is also a lot of social interaction. It is normal to invite other people to travel together or go shopping.

But this kind of excessive socializing is not positive. They actually show off in this way to satisfy their vanity and even maliciousness!
For example, if someone offers to give you a ride, it must be that his car is newly bought and he wants to show off his car.

If someone invites you to go shopping, it's to let you know that his or her recent investment has made a fortune.

If someone does something enviable, or even needless to do, there are likely to be some nasty rumors circulating in the community!

This is actually very common and happens all the time!

The war raised taxes and it hurt the middle class the hardest!
The middle class enjoys the expenses of the upper class, but is not as rich as the upper class, and many people have a lot of loans.

After the tax rate was raised, some financially unhealthy families immediately faced a crisis.

This has caused several families in the community where the little maid lives to sell their properties to fill some bill holes.

But the little maid's family didn't have any accidents, which had to make some people feel a kind of malice in their hearts!
"I'm a fucking senior partner in the company and I'm selling the car I just bought to pay the bills. How can a plumber and a maid live so well?"

"It's fucking unreasonable, something must have happened that we don't know about!"

When people feel resentful and have nowhere to vent, their first choice is someone who is weaker than them as their venting object.

Undoubtedly, plumbers and maids are such subjects.

Some unpleasant rumors began to circulate in their community. Some people said that the little maid was actually a high-level call-in to serve the rich.

Some people also said that she had some relationship with her employer, and some even said that her husband was just a means to cover up the illegitimate child!
At first the plumber didn't pay attention, but as more people talked about it, he himself began to feel a little strange.

They really shouldn't be able to pay the current bills. In order to avoid making a wrong judgment due to the influence of the outside world, he deliberately waited for a while.

He took the bills that should have been handed over to the little maid first.

Looking at those suffocating bills, his blood pressure suddenly started to rise...
