Chapter 1990

A government must at least have a government team, even if it is a government-in-exile.

Once the Penteo people agreed to the demands of the survivors and the Federation, and recognized the legitimacy of their independence, there would be many problems to come.

They are a government-in-exile, recognized by the international community, and they have a lot of private land in Penteo.

There is no problem with directly converting these private lands into diplomatic territories, right?

They seem to have no problem building an army on this land.

Coupled with the fact that the Federation people can support them openly behind their backs, the war between the Federation and the Penteo people is over.

But the war between the Penteo people and these survivors has just begun.

Now the emperor of the Penteio Empire has issued a death order, resolutely does not recognize the legitimacy of these regimes, and will not give the other party equal diplomatic status.

Or, they leave the Penteo Empire.

Or, everything will follow the rules of the Penteio Empire.

They gave these survivors one more option, they can leave Pengjieao safely, this is their greatest sincerity.

In short, the negotiations have to go on. Every day, the two sides shouted at each other at the negotiating table, or slapped the table and cursed at each other, and then left angrily.

In this negotiation, Peng Jieao's diplomats were obviously of a much higher quality. Faced with yelling, cursing and making things difficult, they all remained unmoved.

Unlike last time, I don't want to talk about it until nothing happens.

It may be difficult to achieve results in a short period of time. While fighting against the negotiations, the Pengjieao people contacted some bereaved families in private, and the Federation side is similar.

Both sides are using their brains, and experts expect that good news is unlikely to come out before September.

But no war is the best news for ordinary people!
The cloud of war is fading away, international trade is beginning to resume, and the federal government has also announced that the high tax rate under the state of war will return to the pre-war level after an armistice agreement is reached in the armistice peace talks.

All kinds of news from all over the world gathered together, and every day the federal people would be hit by a large amount of news to their not-so-smart heads.

Queen Feilin was not too sad after confirming the political system of Gafla, and went on a trip with Zenia again.

It seems that everything has settled down with the increase of temperature.

In early August, Serra called Lynch and told him there was a poker game in which Joanna was playing.

She also gave Lynch the name of the person who organized the game, and a list of the participants.

Lynch didn't plan to participate in such a poker game himself. He is very smart, but it doesn't mean he can win money.

In fact, if he really wants to delve into it, this matter is simpler than other things.

To put it bluntly, it means familiarity.

A lot of long-term training is enough, but compared to winning money at the poker table, he focuses on "financial" games where he can win more money.

Finance, in essence, is also a kind of gambling.

The only difference between them is that the most powerful player at the gaming table can only harvest the chips on the gaming table.

But if the financial operation is good, you can harvest the money of a group of people, even a country, or the whole world!
Lynch can't play cards, so he arranged for someone who can play cards to go.

Lynch's desire to build a world-class casino is naturally not a short-term idea, he has planned for a long time.

At the same time, some skilled people were found.

These craftsmen are basically controlled by large and small underground casinos, even if they don't know how to do things in their own casinos or in other people's casinos.

Casinos also need them to watch out for people from other casinos to do black work in their casinos.

There are more people of this kind around the protected area, and there used to be Bu Pain's side, but after the demise of the five major families, they almost dispersed.

Lynch hired him this time, and he was not very famous, but the job in his hand was really good.

On Saturday afternoon, under the arrangement of Lynch, the craftsman entered the game as a croupier.

In another room, Lynch was checking the accounts of the foundation in Joanna's hands.

20.00% of the funds flow into specific charitable assistance. This ratio is a very appropriate ratio in the Federation, and it is higher than the ordinary ratio.

After all, she is the first lady of the Federation, so she cannot set this ratio too low like those capitalists.

Since the establishment of the foundation, more than 600 million donations have been received.

Among them, the sum of the first and last donations is almost 2000 million.

The remaining millions were raised from other activities.

Among them, the money actually spent on those disabled soldiers is less than 150 million.

A total of 730 five people were helped, with an average of one-time cash assistance of 2000 yuan per person.

There are still nearly 200 million, which have been used to purchase various materials, but these materials have not been distributed, but are stored in warehouses.

When Lynch saw this, he picked out the list of suppliers and company names.

He thought there was something wrong with these people.

According to the announcement of the foundation, there should actually be about 600 to [-] million that must be used to help the target population.

Apparently, they only used half of it, and the other half didn't know why it hadn't been activated yet.

Then there is the operation, the investment of some funds, the salary expenditure of personnel, the expenditure when organizing charity activities, and Joanna's various expenditures.

Judging from the accounts, it seems that there is no major problem to be found, and each transaction has detailed records, but Lynch knows that this is a fake account.

Sierra told her that Joanna often loses money, and that she is not rich like Severella herself.

Basically all of her money comes from the foundation. The foundation's accounts do not record any gambling expenses, and there is a problem with the accounts.

But now, the most important thing is to make Joanna lose more.

If she doesn't waste all the money, those disabled soldiers won't be angry enough!
Soon, his attention was on the game in the opposite house.

A circle of ladies were already sitting together, and there were more than a dozen ladies in their 50s, [-]s, [-]s and [-]s sitting beside the huge gambling table.

What they play is a game that is popular all over the world.

In the Commonwealth it's called "Bounty" and in Gefla it's called "Hunter".

The content of the game requires some brains, and the rules are very simple.

There will be at least one winner in each round, and the bounty of the winner will increase, and the increased bounty is composed of "base number" and "victory number".

In short, the more a person wins, the more rounds he wins, the more bounties he has.

Once the person with the bounty loses the round - there are two concepts of losing here.

The first one is "fleeing". In addition to losing the betting chips on the table, half of the winner's own bounty must be handed over.

The second is "death". In addition to clearing all the chips on the table, you also need to pay all your bounty to the winner.

The fun of this game is to pile up the opponent's bounty while trying to maintain a low bounty for yourself.

Some players with strong skills can often come back instantly in the last two rounds, from almost losing everything to making a lot of money!

The more people participate in the game, the more exciting it is, because the more people, the more rewards!

Joanna didn't know how to play this kind of card at the beginning. She had seen others play it, but she hadn't played it herself.

Later, with the expansion of the social circle, Gefra's group of ladies organized various card games when they had nothing to do. She was pulled into it and gradually became addicted.

Her addiction is multiple.

An addiction to the game of wits itself.

An obsession with waving stacks of chips on the table, of getting revenge on past poor selves.

The addiction to the thrill of adrenaline between winning and losing huge amounts of money.

There are too many factors involved, and sometimes she even actively proposes to organize a game!

At this time, half of the first round was over, and the bounty on him was 7000 yuan, and there were about [-] chips on the table.

She has won seven thousand so far.

At first, she was not used to such a big bet, but since winning or losing hundreds of thousands of dollars, winning or losing thousands of dollars has long been unattractive to her.

She wants more.

The starting hand in her hand was good, and after looking at the faces of other ladies, she looked at the chips in hand.

He picked up a small stack, 5000 yuan, and threw it on it.

"Five thousand."

Although 5000 yuan is not a small amount, it is actually that much to the ladies here.

Except for those with bad cards, they basically followed.

The croupier continued to deal the cards, and Joanna's cards got better, and two suits of moderately large and small cards had been formed.

She had a faint premonition that she was going to win!

She took out more chips, took a deep breath, and threw them on the gaming table.

At this moment, she already had a faint feeling!

There were nearly [-] chips on the table, and such a win or loss was enough to make her excited.

She joked pointedly, "I have a good card, so don't run away halfway."

When the hand is not good, you can choose to run away and show the biggest set of cards in your hand.

An escape is considered successful if the deck exceeds the smallest deck in the hands of at least two-thirds of the players.

Lose chips, don't lose the bounty.

If it is only bigger than the smallest suit in the hands of one-third of the players, it can only be counted as an escape.

Lose your chips and lose half your bounty.

If less than one-third of the players can surpass, it will be counted as fleeing and being caught, and the chips and all bounties will be lost.

It is very competitive and entertaining, because it does not mean that you will win if you have a big card.

Sometimes more chips can also play a role in intimidating others!
Small cards win big cards, which is also one of the fun of this game.

Joanna's words made most of the players in the game realize that she had a good card.

Someone thought for a moment, put down a set of cards and ran away.

But some people choose to follow to the end.

Gambling, not gambling, how to get money?

As the croupiers continue to deal cards, everyone has at least three sets of cards in their hands, and next, it's almost time to kill!
