Chapter 2152

Some people in the room had normal expressions, while some had slightly changed expressions.

If foreign capitalists want to make money in this magical land of the Federation, they must obey the Federation's rules of the game.

And having a "political spokesperson" is the threshold for the federal capital game.

Small businessmen who are small enough to operate in the city, they have to get to know some city councilors or even the mayor, so that they can at least get relatively fair treatment in the competition.

For those big capitalists who dominate the financial market, if there are no members of Congress to speak out for them, they may face an embarrassing situation before long.

Therefore, at this critical juncture of the change of congressional seats, some foreign capital could no longer wait any longer and began to take the initiative.

Someone approached Senator Langdon, and more than one person, proposed to pay him 20 or even 50 yuan.

He just needs to speak for those capitalists when they are being treated unfairly.

It sounds as simple as picking up a gold brick on the roadside, but in fact it is just a temptation of capitalists.

After he collects the money, the capitalists will press him step by step, changing from the initial "I am afraid of being persecuted" to "I have an idea."

In fact, he has already experienced this kind of thing, and Lynch did it in the first place.

So he is alert.

These people with changing expressions also fell into the eyes of Senator Langdon. He didn't name them, but just looked at Lynch who had just walked in, and several people behind him.

Not all the people from Marillo went back after simply talking about some things, and a few stayed.

These people later found Lynch privately and expressed their willingness to obey Mr. Lynch's instructions and contribute their meager strength to the peaceful transition of the federal and Marillo regimes!

Some people are idealistic, while others are realistic.

These people are still very active in the political arena in Marillo. Even without Lynch, their purpose is to sell themselves for a good price.

The death of two consecutive presidents brought them too much shock, or two loud slaps woke these people up!

The former president can almost be said to have solved the problem of warlord separatism, but he died as soon as he turned his head.

The former Grand President had just returned to the capital and died again before he could hold together the warlords he had mediated.

It was as if a hand was manipulating everything, keeping all the suffering in Marillo.

And behind all this, there is the shadow of the Federation.

Idealists will eventually die under people's indifferent gaze, only philistine selfish people can live freely in the sun.

They've found someone worth following, someone who can offer them a good price, so why not show their loyalty at this time?
Even the next president of Marillo has become a close friend of Lynch, and they have long since lost the need to persist.

Lynch is still very generous to friends who are willing to play with him. It just so happened that there was a small meeting these days, and he brought these people over.

The moment Lynch entered the room, everyone stood up.

If Senator Langdon is the apparent core of the York Gang, then Lynch is the soul and king of the York Gang!

Lynch raised his hand and pressed falsely, while introducing the people behind him.

When the Marilians heard that the people in this room were members of the House of Representatives, a kind of respect for Lynch from the inside out came out from their bones.

They sat in the corner of the crowd, but not far from Lynch.

"When I first came in, I heard what you said that someone was looking for you?"

Someone brought drinks to Lynch, and someone lit cigarettes for him. After he entered, the whole room, the room and the people in the room were circling around him.

Senator Langdon extinguished the lighter in his hand, nodded, and repeated what he had just said.

Lynch burst out laughing after hearing this, "It's hard to get money from these people. If you take their money, you will most likely have to deal with the Federal Internal Revenue Service."

"They are different from us. Our roots are in the Federation. No matter what we do, my biggest industry is in the Federation."

"It's impossible for me to lose these, so even I have to abide by the federal rules of the game."

"But these people are different, their roots are not here, they are not within the control of the rules."

"When they think they've been cornered, they flip the tables!"

"And this is something you cannot bear!"

That's the end of the point, and there is no more point in talking about it any further.

The purpose of our gathering today is to chat and exchange information.

Because members of Congress don't really stay in the Capitol every day, most people only attend meetings when there are meetings, and they usually have their own things to do.

So if you want people to gather together like this, you have to find an opportunity.

After each regular meeting, Lynch will let everyone gather together to chat and enhance their relationship.

Everyone usually talks about major issues related to the future direction of the country, which makes the new members of the group from Marila feel very shocked.

For the first time, they feel that power is real, can be grasped and seen!
Every idea of ​​these federal congressmen may become a proposal, as long as it is passed, it can be legislated!

You can change this society and this country!

This is real power!

And they are now so close to this power!

In the evening, everyone talked about the same, and they all went to relax.

This is also a tradition, a process... that cannot be described in words.

Perhaps only if everyone has been called together, can we get closer to each other's hearts!

But Senator Landon stayed, along with another congressman.

"Jock wants to go further." Senator Langdon glanced at the "young man" beside him.

To say he is young, he is actually 42 years old, but this age is indeed not old in Congress, and he can also be called young.

This is a very typical mixed-race federal man, who can also be called an indigenous person.

He has flaxen blond hair, is tall and handsome, and has a good impression on people. He is currently a member of the House of Representatives of the Federal Congress and runs errands in the Industrial Development Committee.

In fact, it is said that it is running errands, and it still has a little actual power.

This committee is also one of the weight committees, and its main job is to promote the invention and progress of industrial technology.

It is aimed at large enterprises or major universities that have their own independent research and development capabilities.

At the same time, it is also responsible for the planning and development design of the industry, and it is considered a place with certain rights among many committees.

He has worked here for five and a half years, and he has a little connection in Congress, and now he wants to go further.

In fact, this is also a goal that members of the House of Representatives have been striving for all their lives. One day they can cross that invisible line and enter a whole new world.

Joke was very humble, obviously he was eleven, two or three years older than Lynch, but he behaved like a child in front of Lynch.

Lynch looked at him, "I support you in principle in thinking and doing that. I hope that all of us can go to a higher level."

"But we also need to understand that this is not a simple matter. Tell me, how do you plan to convince me?"

Jock quickly talked about the advantages he now has——

"My father is...", he first said the name of an old senator, and then introduced some situations in his state.

One of the two candidates put forward by the state assembly is about the same age, and support for him within the party is not that strong.

Most of the "old men" are from the era of the previous committee chairman, and Gladstone inherited the mantle of the previous committee chairman, so he didn't have much to throw away these old things.

Instead, it is understandable to selectively and gradually let them leave the political core little by little.

After all, he also has a bunch of little brothers, so it is impossible for him to let these people who are not himself sit in those positions all the time.

Now that a senator is retiring, many people in the party and the state government are eyeing this position.

There are still a few months to go, and everyone has already started to compete.

Lin Qi nodded after listening. This is also the most common state at present.

After all, there is no eternal life and no eternal power.

"How do you need me to help you?"

Jock breathed a sigh of relief. Lynch's ability to talk about this shows that he still has a great chance.

He was honest, "I need you to help me convince some people, and I need financial support."

"200 million to 300 million, maybe a little more."

"We have to compensate some of the people they backed off."

Lynch nodded indifferently, "Money is not a problem. It is worth it to me to send people to the Senate with this little money."

"But I also have a question, how likely are you to get this position?"

Senator Langdon looked slightly sideways at Jock, who was not as confident as before.

"About... half the chance."

He actually lied, he thinks there is only about 30.00% chance, but with Lynch's help, for example, if he persuades some people, then the probability will increase.

Lynch pursed his lips, "It's a lot less than I thought, and I'll give you a suggestion, you can refer to it."

Jock immediately sat obediently, like a primary school student.

He respects Lynch, respects Lynch's money, and respects Lynch's connections.

"Have you seen the people I brought?" Jock nodded, and Lynch continued, "Originally, I should tell you about this matter later, but now I will tell you in advance."

"Next year Marillo will reorganize the administrative area, and there will be extra governor and congressional seats."

"Instead of spending money and energy on a position that you might not necessarily get, let's move the position a little bit."

"The congressman from Marillo is a congressman too, don't you think?"
