Chapter 2053

The night in Bupain is still so beautiful.

Lynch, who arrived at Bupain at night, stood on the deck watching the night scene of Bupain.

The whole of Bupain is very prosperous, and the lighting project at night is also very good, even a little bit excessive.

The sky is dyed in various neon colors, so black that it is colorful.

Under this colorful darkness, a huge city is showing its powerful vitality to everyone who lives here!

Except for the deserted west to the northwest corner of the city, other places are so lively.

Over there is the lower city of Bupain, a slum, and the Bupain City Hall has discussed demolition with their neighborhood representatives many times.

The city hall and some capitalists are willing to actively compromise, let them move out there, or move to other cities.

But they all refused, or the price they asked was too high, and there was no way to get people to agree.

Over time, Bupain's urban development has been readjusted, developing towards the port and the southern region, and the planning of the entire city has become an inverted "L" shape.

The gradually prosperous port has made it a new economic growth point, and many ships call here every day.

Some are cargo, some are regular cruise ships, but whatever it is, they stop for a while before leaving.

The income of sailors and seamen is much higher than that of ordinary workers, and their rest also makes the port have a certain consumption potential.

Capital is always chasing profits. As long as there are profits and profits can be made, capitalists don't mind running various businesses here.

Lynch raised his watch and took a look. It was already past eight o'clock in the evening, and the port was still bustling.

Vehicles, pedestrians, and people in pairs in open-air business facilities.

Lynch disembarked and soon saw the man who came to pick him up, Senator Langdon.

"Going to eat something?" Senator Langdon asked Lynch's luggage to be sent back alone, and he got into Lynch's car.

Lynch's car is bulletproof, but his car is not bulletproof. Sometimes there will be some people who think that Lynch's actions are unnecessary. Those who think like this can only say that their status is still too low.

Lynch nodded. He realized that Senator Langdon had something to tell him and asked him to choose a position.

Senator Langdon reported the location of a private club and arrived at the reserved location not long after.

After confirming that there was no danger, Lynch entered the room. There was already a person in the room, who looked a little haggard in his 50s.

But he's well dressed and doesn't look cheap.

When he saw Lynch and Senator Langdon, he immediately stood up from the sofa and greeted them.

Senator Langdon introduced Lynch, "This is Mr. Senator O'Brien of the Senate..."

When Senator Langdon said the Senate, there was no doubt that he meant Congress, not the local state legislatures.

Lynch was a little curious, but he still reached out to shake hands with him, and announced his family name.

For a well-known person like Lynch, there are many people who know his name, but not many people know his specific appearance-for the entire country.

"The chef is ready and ready to serve at any time..." O'Brien looked at Lynch, and he handed over the decision to Lynch.

This is also a statement. Sometimes some things are really hard to say, and Lynch is so young.

No matter how thick-skinned O'Brien was, he couldn't show his attitude too much to Lynch.

He has to be tactful.

Lynch nodded, the three of them sat at the dining table, and the cooks began to serve the dishes.

It is very rich, with more than a dozen dishes, this meal will cost at least several thousand yuan.

Lynch sipped the imported wine fermented by dragon's blood wood, while talking about interesting things in Slem.

He kept silent about why this Mr. O'Brien invited himself to dinner.

Although O'Brien was anxious, he didn't show it. Instead, he was very catering to some of the little stories Lynch told to improve the atmosphere.

Always make some exclamation sounds appropriately, very devoted!

Dinner was almost over, and O'Brien kept winking at Senator Langdon, who comforted him with his eyes, and then he proposed to take a break.

Lynch knew that they had something to say, and that O'Brien was a senator in Congress, and he was someone who needed to be drawn into unity.

The reason why he showed such an unhurried attitude was not to reject O'Brien, but to let him understand.

He is not the indispensable one, and Lynch does not need to wrong himself to fulfill him.

As for whether he can understand this, there is no question about it.

The three sat down next to the sofa in the living room next to them, and the operator brought coffee and juice.

At this time, Senator Langdon talked about the reason why O'Brien appeared here.

"Mr. O'Brien's child had a little trouble some time ago, and now he is under control..."

O'Brien has a son, 22, and only son.

When this guy was born, O'Brien hadn't completed his positive capital accumulation, so he didn't care much after the child was born.

Most of the time is spent socializing outside, trying to improve his status in the federal government system.

After years of fighting, now he is successful, a senator in Congress, and has some reliable allies.

But his son, because of lack of discipline for many years and his father's name, often messed up.

When Lynch was in Nagalil some time ago, the young man had a conflict with another group of people in a nightclub because of a girl.

Both sides called a lot of friends, but after all, it was the senator's son. In addition to calling some people who might have ties to the gang, they also called some law enforcement officers.

They beat each other up without telling each other, and took it to the regional police station. It is said that they still raped the girl who caused all the conflicts in the interrogation room.

Originally, for the federal senators, to settle this matter, a few phone calls would do.

But I didn't expect that the other party also had a background, and he was unwilling to compromise. There was only one request, and that was to put O'Brien's son in jail, and even expose him.

At this point, no matter how stupid O'Brien was, he would have guessed that the purpose of these people might be him, but he was still not sure if the whole thing was caused by him.

He found some friends, both political and capitalist, and he hoped that someone could help to make peace.

In fact, he didn't care if his son went to jail or not.

As long as he is still a senator, even if his son goes to jail, he can live a good life in prison.

Conversely, if he loses his status as a senator because of this, even if his son is fine, he will not have a good life in the future.

He even considered sending his son to prison to solve the matter himself, but the problem is that if there is only the first half of the matter, it will be easy to handle.

The difficulty lies in the second half of the process. As an independent natural person, a 22-year-old unemployed young man must not be able to instruct people who mobilize the police station.

The only one who can get the police station to cooperate with his son is O'Brien, the senator's father!

It can also be seen that his son has abused his senatorial rights not once or twice, and it can even be said to be some kind of tacit understanding between father and son!
So once something happened to his son, something happened to him, and the federal people, especially the lower society in the federation, hated this kind of situation!
He tried many people to no avail, but Senator Langdon gave him a proposal—maybe you should talk to Mr. Lynch.

So, there was such a meeting.

Lynch listened carefully to Senator Langdon's retelling from a neutral position, and then fell into thinking.

He didn't agree immediately, but needed some understanding, "I'll call to find out more about the problem, and then I can give you an accurate answer, maybe it will take two days."

"But don't worry, in the past two days, I can guarantee that the situation will not change further."

O'Brien could only keep nodding his head in agreement.

After Lynch returned home, Senator Langdon did not leave, and they talked about it in the study.

"O'Brien is now forced to have nowhere to go. Before that, he was very arrogant and not so gregarious."

"Someone is eyeing his position and trying to get him out, and I think we can fight for it."

Senator Langdon lit a cigarette. "The expansion of Congress has been very unkind to us, and our share has dropped again."

"If O'Brien can be brought in, plus Catherine's candidates, our side will occupy at least six or seven senatorial seats."

In order to completely occupy the three special states of Nagalil, the federal government has specially allowed the three special states to submit the list of members of Congress to the Congress.

In this way, in fact, the three special states are no different from other states, and they are all part of the federation.

In this way, the number of members of Congress will start to increase. The exact number of increase is still unclear. It was said before that it would not exceed [-], but now it is said that it will exceed [-].

The President of the Senate privately revealed that, plus the three special states, there are 45 states in the federation on the surface, and there are about [-] senators on the list.

It was said before that there would be 47, but now there have been some changes on the side of Sedoras, and they also want to join the federal system, so they have to provide some convenience for the follow-up possibilities.

But for now, there will be no more than 55 at most.

If among the 55 seats, only four can be occupied without the Senate President, it will have no effect on the overall situation at all.

But if they can grow the Yorkists to seven or eight, they'll have about 15.00% of the Senate.

Already able to make a strong voice on key issues!
And after this incident, if O'Brien is not so stupid that he is hopelessly stupid, he knows how to put himself in the right position!
Lynch supports Senator Langdon's proposal in principle, but it depends on whether the matter is really that troublesome.
