Chapter 2649
No one dislikes flattery, including Mr. Trueman, who actually enjoys flattery.

But different people have different degrees and levels of understanding of flattery.

Take President Bowling for example. As long as you praise him for any action, he will be very happy. His tolerance for flattery has always been very low. As long as you say something nice, he will feel happy.

Mr. Trueman has a high tolerance for adulation, and a high level of it.

He has done something, and if you say how well he did it, it will obviously not make him have a good impression of you. Instead, he will feel that you are trying to influence his opinion of you through flattery.

But if you stand from the public's perspective and "understand" some of the decisions he made, then he will be very happy.

Replacing "You made a good decision" with "The people will thank you for your decision" will put a smile on Mr. Trueman's face.

He doesn't like excessive flattery, and he also needs to pay attention to a certain level. As long as it does not exceed this level, his emotional value will continue to rise.

Connor is in the middle of the two. He has his own unique preferences, a bit arrogant, and likes others' praise for him, but he won't show it so strongly.

He acted naturally in front of Lynch because he had a good relationship with Lynch. He felt that Lynch was his half-brother, so he didn't need to hide it, and Lynch could also catch it very well. His mood changes, and then he finds the point he wants others to find that can praise him, and gives him a few nice words.

Of course, not everyone can flatter him and smooth his hair, otherwise he would not share his happiness with Lynch most of the time.

Being a human being is difficult. You never know who and what you will meet as you grow, study, work, and grow old.

But sometimes being a human being is very simple. If you treat being a human being as a scientific subject and study it seriously, it is actually not that complicated.

It may not be easy to get perfect scores, but passing scores is not a problem.

Connor licked his mouth, feeling a little unfinished, but Lynch closed his mouth nicely.

Sometimes speaking too much may not satisfy people, but will suddenly become dull.

"I'm looking forward to the moment when they find out the truth!" Connor sighed, then looked at Lynch, "I don't know how to praise you anymore, you are always so...different!"

Connor's televised speech was proposed by Lynch. Originally Connor thought it was best not to appear too much on this matter. After all, the presidential palace and the military are a very sensitive and fragile topic.

If Connor expressed his seriousness about this issue, it would most likely arouse dissatisfaction among the serving soldiers.

Because the president actually suspects that we are colluding with the capitalists, and even doubts our loyalty!

If this was the case before the war broke out, there might not have been anything. Just doubt it. Anyway, it wouldn't be a piece of meat, and everyone is used to anyone being able to accuse the military of inaction.

But after the war, millions of fallen soldiers proved the army's loyalty to the Union and the people through their blood, flesh and sacrifice!

Once Connor shows that he takes the report seriously, some soldiers and soldiers will be angered and the situation will go in another direction.

However, it was not good for him not to express his position. At first, Connor's idea was to send some signals privately, but Lynch gave him a suggestion.

Let him stand firmly on the side of the Navy and believe that these are slanders and false accusations. Anyway, whether this matter is true or not depends on the investigation team and the final evidence.

But by saying this, he can obviously win the favor of the lower-level soldiers of the Navy and reduce the resistance during the investigation process.

Even the president is on their side and firmly believes that they were wronged. Although they may be dissatisfied with the investigation team, no one will bother the investigation team!
I was fucking wronged, why should I obstruct your investigation of me?

The mood of the lower-level soldiers remains unchanged, and it will become more difficult for the officers and the Peleus family to control these soldiers!
Is it possible that the top brass of the military are really as much a cancer to the Federation as the outside world says?
Even some low-level officers who have been seriously corrupted will cooperate with the investigation to prove that they have no problem!

Lynch's unique perspective allowed Connor to once again see what "artistic cells" are. Even if the final result was not satisfactory, the investigation revealed that this was not slander and that the Navy did have problems.

No one will think that he is stupid. At most, they will think that he has been deceived, and they will hate those who have problems even more.

Connor, on the other hand, can end the entire incident as quickly as possible without much impact through empathy with the lower-level soldiers of the Navy.

"We were all deceived by bad guys" is definitely a good excuse. It has almost the same magical effect as "Just kill the culprit", and is even higher in level.

The soldiers will have the thought "Mr. President has also been deceived, so it would be more normal for me to be deceived", thus giving them more opportunities to make a new choice.

Lynch responded to Connor's compliment with "Thank you for the compliment," being polite and modest is not the way the Federation conducts itself.

"Then what happens next is how they resist?" This is a definite question.

Now the Presidential Palace, Congress, and even public opinion have begun to exert their influence. If the Navy does not cooperate with the investigation, then they have a guilty conscience.

If they cooperate with the investigation...

There are so many things that can be investigated, and you don't even need to make up or create evidence yourself to nail them all.

The people and public opinion of the Federation will become particularly important and useful at this time.

Those transfers of benefits that are completely legal from a macro level will become illegal, unreasonable, and unruly under the influence of public opinion!In short, the navy and Peleus' family cannot escape!
Even other military regions are tied to this matter. Mr. President is so supportive of the military, why don't you and the others do your best?
Lynch crossed his legs and swung his toes back and forth, just like a dog wagging its tail when it's happy.

"There will definitely be difficulties, resistance, resistance, and even a desperate fight, but I believe they will not succeed."

"We must try to keep them within the federal territory as much as possible and prevent them from escaping."

Connor's smile faded and he changed his sitting position again, "Do you think they will escape?"

Lynch immediately asked, "If you can't beat me, why don't you run away and wait to be wiped out?"

Connor frowned, "Are they willing to give up such a huge benefit?"

"You have to be willing to give up even if you don't want to. There is only one way to die if you stay!"

"Do you believe?"

"Those who have interests with them and are at the core of interest groups want to kill them as soon as possible more than we do!"

"After all, it is the largest shipping group in the world..."

It is difficult to estimate the size of Federal Shipping Group.

Not everyone pays full taxes like Lynch. Most capitalists are still trying their best to avoid taxes reasonably, or even evade taxes.

The most correct approach for capitalists is to register shipping companies in other neutral countries overseas and use some international treaties and other relationships to reduce their tax expenses.

The ships of shipping groups are basically "rented". It doesn't matter whether they rent their own ships. Anyway, they have various documents with legal effect.

Just the cost of leasing saves them a ton of money on taxes, so it's hard to figure out just how rich they are!

Every ship, every time it goes to sea, is a huge profit!

International trade has been prevalent for so many years, and the federal shipping group has monopolized nearly 70.00% of the world's ocean transportation industry.

The logistics centers in the southern hemisphere are actually the result of the efforts of shipping groups. They use various methods to try to monopolize the world's ocean transportation industry on a larger scale!

Tens of billions?
Today, with the rapid expansion of capital, there may be thousands or even hundreds of billions, plus their ports, ships, and supplies around the world.

Aren't the capitalists and interest groups with such a large amount of wealth worried that the navy will involve them?

Of course they are worried, so they actually hope that all the top brass of the navy will die suddenly more than others!
Connor's eyes went straight, "Are we still going to take action against these companies?"

Federal politicians all share some of the same problems, and they all show a tough attitude when dealing with government personnel, including the military.

But when it comes to dealing with capitalists, the attitude softens a lot.

Capital has penetrated into every aspect of the Federation, including people's minds and spirits.

Lynch curled his lips and said, "There are still more than ten years left. So much money should not be put in their hands and eventually rot. I think it is a good choice to use it to develop technology."

Connor thought for a while and nodded cautiously, "You will take action, right?"

Lynch kept his smile and made no other moves, but Conner got what he wanted.

Soon, the top brass of the navy, the heroic admiral of the federal navy, also gave a public speech.

He thanked Connor for his recognition and support of the Navy, and felt very sad about these slanders. He said he would try his best to cooperate with the joint investigation team's investigation and evidence collection.

It's nice to say it, but it's not actually done.

The joint investigation team ran into trouble on the first day of its work. They wanted to get the Navy's roster, but were refused.

The reason is that these rosters involve some mid- to high-level officers, and the identities of some of them are confidential. Therefore, if you want to access these documents, you must first obtain the consent of the Ministry of Defense.

The joint investigation team also proposed to interrogate and investigate some specific people involved in the report, but they did not receive good cooperation.

The reason is even simpler. These people are temporarily outside the federal territory because they are participating in secret military operations, and it may take some time before they can come back.

Therefore, the Navy hopes that the joint investigation team will start from where it can investigate.

For example...

Those people reported the problem of benefit transfer!
