Chapter 1869 New Policy Adjustments
Hundreds of millions, more than one billion orders, let Mr. Truman have an indescribable feeling in his heart.

The amount of these orders is too large.

So big that sometimes he feels unreal!

The officer stood still and didn't speak. This was not something he could speak in his capacity.

Whether it's the president, Lynch, or the military, he's a little guy.

The officer's silence didn't make Mr. Truman very dissatisfied. He was often silent before, and he knew very well that this kind of silence didn't necessarily mean that he really didn't want to say it, but that he couldn't say it.

At the same time, he also understood why he placed an order for Lynch.

That's because other military industrial groups are obviously lagging behind Lynch's flight research institute in some technologies, and there is no possibility of catching up.

Regardless of the fact that the Flight Research Institute has recently authorized the production of the first generation of fighter jets, it has also sold many assembly lines.

But compared to the real second generation they are producing, the parameters are much worse, and no one can pose a danger to them, including Lanying Air.

They all took the initiative to avoid the core area of ​​Blackstone Aviation, which is enough to see how terrifying Blackstone Aviation's dominance in this part is.

Mr. Truman handed back the signed contract, "Is that all right?"

The officer breathed a sigh of relief, but after looking at the document, he nodded and said, "Yes, Mr. President."

"If nothing else..."

Mr. Truman nodded slightly, the officer left the room and closed the door, and the office returned to calm.

But his heart could not calm down.

With so many orders and the ever-expanding Blackstone Group, almost all walks of life in the Federation are involved behind it. Now even the military has a deep relationship with Lynch.

He is like a ghost floating above Bu Paine, constantly corrupting everything in the Federation, from this office to the people at the bottom, all have contact with him, or will inevitably have contact in the future.

This also made Mr. Truman doubt his own decision, and it really waited until after the war when everything stabilized.

Can he really make Lynch let go of his power and influence and be willing to be an ordinary rich man?
He has so much money, so many people buy it, is he willing?
It was a question that would never have an answer, or that the answer would never be what Mr. Truman needed, and there was nothing better he could do.

Now he can't touch Lynch anymore, because Lynch is too entangled with all walks of life.

If you want to move him, the military will not agree, the Blackstone Group itself will not agree, and there will be great opinions within the Holy Harmony Society.

The "York Gang", which has gradually gained a certain voice and status in Congress, will definitely not be on his side, and the newly elected chairman of the party committee will certainly not be on his side.

Looking at it this way, it seemed that everyone was on Lynch's side.

But Mr. Truman knows that he is not completely without chance.

When the war is completely won, his personal prestige and prestige will reach their peak. At this time, whoever stands on the opposite side of him will be the common enemy of the Federation.

He can continue to wait, because he still has a trump card!

In fact, Lynch has never offended him, and even gave him great help when he ran for president.

His sense of crisis towards Lynch was entirely caused by the Blackstone Group.

This is a behemoth with its own armed forces, spanning multiple industries and owning its own bank.

Once he has some bad thoughts about the Federation, the Federation will fall into disaster, and he must eliminate this possibility, even if it is just a possibility.

And it's not just Lynch, all big capitalists are his targets and enemies.

He will never forget the humiliation those capitalists gave him!

Maybe, it's time to make some adjustments!

On the grounds of national security, the Presidential Palace has promoted the revision of some regulations, such as increasing the ability to manage and control domestic financial behavior and giving more power to the Financial Supervisory Commission.

Another example is to require all walks of life to cooperate with the federal government to establish an industry self-discipline supervision system, establish a semi-official supervision agency, and restrain the behavior of enterprises.

These changes are some very detailed things, and the general direction has not changed, so not many people pay attention to it.

But this also touched the hearts of some capitalists, because these changes seem inconspicuous, but they actually make capitalists a little uncomfortable.

All kinds of free financial means or market means are now more or less restricted.

For example, there were no restrictions on the participation of enterprises in financial operations before. Even if enterprises used all their money to repay loans and funds, they would not intervene in it.

This is the power of the enterprise itself. They are not afraid of losing and cannot afford to wear pants, and the bank has no obligation to remind them.

But now after these policies are revised, companies must leave enough funds to maintain daily production and operation, and the remaining money can be used to participate in financial operations.

At the same time, banks cannot unreservedly provide large loans and allocations to enterprises or individuals.

This makes many big capitalists very uncomfortable.

The wealthy people in the Federation are divided into three parts. The first part is engaged in business.

These people occupy the middle and lower classes and the vast majority of capitalists. They run various factories and seem to make a lot of money, but in fact they don’t make much.

Therefore, they are all middle and lower strata in the capitalist field, and are not highly regarded by the other two capitalists.

The second part has a financial background, and this part is also the middle and upper class in the capitalist field.

For them, the financial market is a big gambling table. Although the risks are great, the benefits are also great.

It may only be a few days, and the money they earn is the money that those who engage in business will never earn in their entire lives.

But it's also scary to lose.

The third part is about consortiums, chaebols, and economic monsters that straddle the first two parts.

This is the top of the capitalist family, such as people like Lynch.

They have real industries, also engage in finance, and play indirect monopoly in certain fields.

But whether it is the first type of capitalists or the last type of capitalists, big consortiums, they will have a lot of connections with banks.

Loans, mortgages, or whatever.

It is very difficult for any enterprise to leave the business with the bank, and now the federal government is requiring changes in this area, and it is not just ordinary financial operations that have been changed.

For example, loans for enterprises to expand production capacity have also been included in the ranks that require increased scrutiny.

In short, loans and purely financial operations have encountered some troubles.

But these troubles have not been directly reflected in the financial market, and stocks are still rising every day.

Except for a few stocks that were affected and then pulled up by the big index, it seems that there is not much change.

The orderly inflow of international hot money, coupled with investment attraction, has also promoted the rise of the entire social economy.

Some adjustments of the presidential palace have caused dissatisfaction among some people, and these people have also had a dialogue with Mr. Truman in their own way.

But the result of the dialogue was not very good. In their words, it was all about the economic and financial security of the Federation.

It will not be considered for changes until after the war is over.

The reason why everyone's reaction is not so strong is the issue of industry self-discipline raised by the Presidential Palace. This is a typical game of carrots and sticks.

Give it a hammer, and give it a favor.

Industry self-discipline is an organization similar to an industry guild formed spontaneously by well-known enterprises in the industry, and has a semi-official nature.

They will review and investigate some companies in the industry that have obvious violations.

This allowed the big capitalists to gain deeper control over the industry while being limited by funds, so they pinched their noses and temporarily approved it.

Everyone is privately dissatisfied with some of the demands made by the presidential palace, but they are limited to private discussions.

In times of war, it is wisest not to confront the president.

At the same time, the Department of International Affairs released some new capital access rules.

If the international funds want to leave after entering the Federation, after deducting the inbound funds, the outbound funds will be charged a departure tax of no more than 70.00%[-] in a step-by-step manner.

However, at the same time that the new departure tax was announced, the Department of International Affairs announced a new relief plan for the departure tax.

For example, after foreign capital enters the federal government and invests in real industries, every time a worker is hired, when the capital leaves Hong Kong to pay the departure tax, it can get a part of the tax reduction or exemption.

Not a percentage, just a single specific number that will increase according to the specific number of years a worker has worked.

For example, if there is only one worker with one year of service, the tax reduction of 120 yuan may be deducted.

But if it is a worker with ten years of service, there may be a tax reduction of 500 yuan.

You can only apply for departure once every two years.

In addition, there are some other corresponding relief methods, such as doing charity in the federal government and donating to charitable foundations.

For example, participate in some investments that help improve people's living standards, establish and maintain the operation of public welfare organizations, etc.

Each tax reduction will have a specific upper limit. If the entire upper limit can be reached, the departure tax will be reduced to 20.00% to 30.00%.

This is already a very suitable figure, and it is also acceptable for all foreign funds.

All policies, those of the Presidential Palace and the Department of International Affairs, will be officially implemented from October [-]st...

After less than half a month of communication, except for the Federal Savings Bank of the six major banks, the other five banks and Lynch reached an agreement on the issue of Gefra's national debt.

The five banks hold about 30 billion federal sols worth of Guafra national debts. These national debts are basically subjugated because of Guafra, and theoretically speaking, they will not come back.

After voting by the board of directors and shareholders' meeting of the five major banks, the total national debt of 30 billion will be transferred to Lynch at a price of [-] million.

At this time, Lynch, together with what he had in his hands, had become Gefra's biggest creditor.
