Chapter 235 The End of an Era and the Rebirth

Lynch had dinner with the mayor a little later.

Speaking of which, this is a very interesting phenomenon. Two months ago, when Lynch wanted to have a meal with the mayor, he had to queue for a long time before it was his turn.

But now, he can easily see the mayor anytime, anywhere, and jump in line to sit down with the mayor to chat or have a meal at any time.

Is this due to Lynch's charisma, knowledge, morality and other excellent qualities?

No, this has nothing to do with those excellent qualities, it is because he is rich, and because his development has been linked to the mayor's political platform, they are a community of interests, and interests are the key to these miracles.

This was a very ordinary dinner, they did not eat outside, but chose to be at the mayor's home.

It's not a smart thing to eat and drink outside at this time, maybe a reporter who doesn't know where to hide can make a big news.

For example, the mayor who is eating, drinking and having fun and the homeless man who is about to freeze to death and starve to death on the side of the road are arranged on the same page at the same time. Without any strong language, it is enough to remind people of many things that can make people angry.

So in order to avoid these problems, the mayor specially invited Lynch to his home for dinner. It was an ordinary family dinner, but the family dinner itself was not so ordinary.

"I heard from Mark that you are going to split up your company. Will this have any impact on our next...plans?" The mayor asked very straightforwardly, and Mark told the mayor about the meeting Afterwards, the mayor decided to ask Lynch.

He wasn't worried about the money. As long as his ass was still sitting in this position, it would be a very simple matter for Mark to make a fortune.

For example, Mark has been negotiating with the city hall recently about the issue of urban public transportation.

The bankruptcy of the public transportation company continues to affect the travel problems of the citizens of this city. No company is willing to take this responsibility. Fortunately, Mark appeared at this time.

He is willing to take on this responsibility. At the same time, in order to thank Mark for taking on such a responsibility, the city hall is willing to squeeze out some losses in subsidizing the operation of public transportation companies from their not very rich finances, and at the same time give them a certain amount. degree of tax exemption.

In order to show that this is a process without black box transactions, everything is transparent and visible.

The mayor is not worried about how Mark's business is doing. He is only worried about whether the policies he promotes will be affected.

Lynch patiently explained the situation to him in a way that the mayor could understand.

"After the company is split, we will let professional people do professional things, which can provide more jobs for the society than now. Let me give you an example..." He paused, the mayor listened Seriously, without interrupting him.

"Based on the current situation, I probably have less than [-] partners in each city, and these people are enough to handle all the business."

"But after the split, only the workers needed to build a second-hand commodity trading center in various places, there are probably hundreds to thousands of workers in each city!"

"This does not include the later operation and management personnel, their number will only increase, and this is only one company."

"The auction company, as well as the current parent company, we also need warehouses. Whether we rent others' or build our own, we can provide more jobs for the society."

The mayor generally understood a little bit, and he asked a more targeted question, "You have spread the situation to such a large extent, can the funds keep up?"

Lynch shook his head, "There is no problem in this regard. A few years ago, I would not have done this. Just the expected land is enough to make me bankrupt, but now..."

He smiled and moved away from the table. The mayor's cook brought up the cooked steak. He didn't continue talking, but the mayor knew what he was talking about.

As the destructive influence of the financial tsunami becomes wider and wider, the real estate transactions are the first to be impacted.

With the flight of funds and the continuous decline of social vitality, the standard of living in the city is unbearable. Many people are fleeing the city, just like they flooded into the city from the countryside a few years ago, and left in despair.

Demand for real estate is dwindling, and real estate transaction volumes are hitting new lows every week.

A sluggish real estate transaction market will naturally drive down housing prices. This is actually similar to stocks—the transaction price will become the coordinates in the trend chart. The lower the price trend, the more impressive the speed and extent of people's price reduction.

It's much easier to get a piece of land now than it used to be, and the mayor, who runs the city, knows it.

Knowing that these things will not affect the policies he has implemented, the mayor has a relaxed smile on his face. The problems he has encountered recently have given him a headache for a long time.

He said in a good mood, "The ideas you told me last time have already been realized, and we have made some breakthroughs."

This can be regarded as some sweetness for Lynch. He said a name, a young man who is emerging in the diplomatic battlefield, and what is more interesting is that this young man happens to be the president's own son.

Some things in the international community have not yet been communicated back home, but that day is not far away.

While attending an international conference, the young gentleman met some unfriendly people who teased him about his father, the President of the Federation.

The general meaning is that a supporter of isolationism would actually let his son participate in an international conference. Is this because the president tends to the pressure of domestic politics and has to compromise with the world, or is it that his son stabbed his father in the back ?

This is a very malicious ridicule, people are watching the good show, but this young man said something unbelievable-"Every era has the choice of each era, we can't force the mistakes of the era to be imposed on our own body, but as a father's child, a young diplomat of the country, I will try to prove it to everyone."

"What the Baylor Federation lost, what Mr. President lost, what we lost, I will win it back, for everyone!"

With powerful words and unquestionable determination, he is completely different from all previous diplomats of the Baylor Federation.

Faced with some malicious ridicule or even provocation, those people will only avoid it. Even if it is too much, they will raise some matters to the level of the country, and then even if they expose it with a few mouthfuls.

Few people would answer directly, and with such completely different attitudes, people immediately realized that the federation's international policy had undergone tremendous changes.

At the same time, the vice chairman of the Progressive Party has successfully reached some international cooperation intentions and strategic intentions with some countries, and the premise of all this is to let the current president of the Baylor Federation step down.

The change in the Federation's attitude has also given a lot of face to these people in the international community. They have already tossed the president of the Baylor Federation to the point of leaving. If they continue to mess around, they will only push the Federation to their opposite.

The external has been prepared, and the next step is to wait for the high degree of unity of domestic consciousness and social attitudes to complete the final step.

Now society has a lot of opinions on the president. Under the propaganda of politicians and the media, all the crimes have been blamed on Mr. President, and people are willing to do so.

Many people know very well behind their backs that social turmoil and economic regression are actually not so directly related to the president. He doesn't have the ability to destroy the country all at once.

But everyone is happy to do it, because only by doing so can they not be proven wrong, but the president.

After all, isolationism is essentially born in response to the needs of society. Mistakes have already happened, so let those who can shoulder this responsibility bear it.

The more people hate Mr. President with the same hatred, the more united the whole society will be. Seeing that the second round of voting on the President's impeachment will begin in a few days, many groups spontaneously went to the Bu Paine Capitol to support those who are not afraid of mighty warriors.

Many people believe that this will be a turning point in the history of the Federation.

But..., Lynch is not as optimistic as ordinary people. In fact, the Federation's economy itself is built on the international hot money to avoid the war. Their massive real estate investment in the Federation has brought about an unprecedented financial economy in the Federation. Prosperity.

Now that these people have left, they will not come back because of changes in the federation's international policy. It is unlikely that they will return to the way they were before in three to five years or longer.

The next development speed will be beyond everyone's expectations, not fast, but slow, extremely slow.

"After all these things are over, we will completely liberalize free trade to a certain extent." The mayor ate a delicious steak and said one of Lynch's most interesting words.

Lynch heard some of the questions, and he repeated, "To a certain extent?"

The mayor put down his knife and fork and nodded, "Some research experts and scholars in the party believe that no large-scale war will break out within ten years, and the way of war may also undergo some changes, from armed war to economic war..."

In this world war, economic warfare also began to gradually come into people's sight. Especially in the later period of the war, countries discovered that large-scale bombardment of commercial cities and industrial cities gained far more mid- and long-term benefits than bombardment of frontline positions.

The top leaders of the Progressive Party are a little afraid that once free international trade is fully liberalized, some international hungry wolves may be introduced into countries that have no experience and resistance, so they are only liberalized to a certain extent.

"Then what about me?" Lynch asked curiously, "How do I get the qualification for international trade?"
