Chapter 479 Birthday and Preparing to Sneak Out
Leaving aside the fact that Emperor Gafla did not control his temper and roared and got angry in the ruler's hall, Lynch ushered in his birthday.

On October 22, he turned [-].

He didn't have a birthday on October [-] last year, he wasn't very used to it, or before he came to this world, he was used to not having a birthday.

Celebrating your birthday in that kind of place is actually a kind of torment, because you can't leave a cage for the rest of your life. Every time you celebrate a birthday, you are actually reminding yourself that some people murdered yourself for another year in this way.

So people there basically don't have birthdays, which is different from ordinary small rooms with a wide range of places.

In ordinary little rooms in those areas, people have birthdays, and there are friendly places that organize birthday events, so that everyone can have a little fun, and there are talent shows and things, which are very lively.

Because they can finally go out and be free, every birthday means that they are one step closer to freedom.

But in Lynch's place, once America's birthday, it's one step closer to the grave.

This also made Lynch not care much about whether his birthday passed after he came here.

This time, he didn't want to celebrate his birthday either, it wasn't interesting, but he couldn't escape successfully, because Severilla chased here to celebrate his birthday.

Before realizing that he was celebrating his birthday, Lynch had just finished an exchange salon with some local businessmen, foreign businessmen and domestic businessmen.

It sounds a bit complicated, but it is actually a group of uneasy businessmen and a group of excited businessmen gathered together to discuss the next market and competition issues.

Lynch said before that the joint development company will not distribute everything like the Preton firm.

The Federation is still a country that needs face. Even if they really want to do this in their hearts, they actually do it in other ways, but they will not say it, let alone admit it.

Everything is left to the market to speak, and the market is no longer monopolized by institutions like Pretton Firm. This is the most correct justice.

In the past, everyone's business, how much they did, and how much they could earn each year were very tightly controlled. These people only needed to arrange a few subordinates to handle ordinary daily work, and they just waited for the money to come in.

But it is different now. Lynch has let go of the market, including himself, he will not monopolize the market share, which will make the following market competition extremely fierce.

The competition between local merchants, foreign merchants, and federal merchants will be like a bloody war without any rules. The first thing people will face is a price war, and the war will escalate rapidly.

The only referee for this war is Lynch, so this meeting, in a way, is equivalent to him making the rules and then pulling the trigger of the starting gun.

He still doesn't like these local businesses, but he is very concerned about the local market. After all, it is a market of [-] to [-] million people. Once these people become rich, their consumption potential will make the federal people pay attention.

This is also one of his plans, or the joint development company, they will provide these Nagalilians with suitable jobs and wages, and squeeze out the value of their labor force.

And then get a good chunk of it back by selling services and merchandise, which is perfect!
Lynch, who was thinking about something, only focused on walking forward. At the moment when the door of the room opened, suddenly there was cheering that almost scared him.

"Happy birthday", which should be a happy greeting, made him a little dumbfounded.

Fortunately, he has seen a lot of big scenes, and this accident is still within the range of his psychological endurance. He quietly let go of his fist, and an incredible smile appeared on his face in time.

Severella, who was standing closest to him, was blushing, holding a... It should be a hat. Federal people have many behaviors related to rituals.

Like festivals, different recipes are arranged for different festivals, and even where to eat is very particular.

Another example is gangs. The fighting between gang members is actually very ritualistic. How to kill people and how to deal with them after killing people are all traceable. Those old policemen can get a hand from the scene of gang fighting case information.

Of course, it also includes the birthday party. Wearing a pointed colorful hat becomes the "ceremony" of the birthday party, and it is also an indispensable ceremony.

Severella didn't notice Lynch's helplessness after his surprise expression. She helped Lynch put on the hat and dragged him into the room.

When Lynch entered the room, he saw Governor Drago who had changed into a federal outfit, and he immediately felt much better.

"I didn't know you were coming..." Lynch said softly, standing in front of a birthday cake taller than a person.

The girl's face was slightly flushed, "I read a book, which said that people should strive for their own happiness, so I'm here, and I think you are my happiness."

Such Chi Guoguo's confession made Lynch a little unprepared. Did Mr. Wardrick make a mistake, why did he send this chick here?

In fact, Lynch and Mr. Wardrick have the same opinion. It is unlikely that he will marry Severilla as his wife, and Mr. Wardrick will not allow him to do so.

For Lynch, the woman is too strong-here is not about Severella's attitude in life and work, but that her family background and interpersonal relationship are obviously far beyond Lynch's, and on the contrary, she will not have any influence on Lynch. Any help is appreciated.

Even because of their relationship, Lynch's own development will be restricted. When people are negotiating business with Lynch, they will pay more attention to the attitude of Severella and the capital forces behind her, and consider whether doing so will have negative effects. something, which simply crossed Lynch.

Including any growth and progress of Lynch, it will be seen as his development with the help of Severella's relationship and help, which will undoubtedly be fatal to him personally and his business.

Unless he can grow enough to make people ignore his origin and background before the two get married, but this is unlikely in a short time, it will take at least ten years, so this is destined to be a battle of no The resulting love.

Perhaps that was why Mr. Wardrick had asked her to come?
Because he knows the result?
Still, it's a joy to be valued, and after Lynch murmured a "thank you," he cut the cake.

Just a few hundred meters away, Mr. Simon happened to have just returned home.

This time, the salon they organized made his already low mood even more depressed.

Lynch stated at the meeting that he would not intervene in the competition among businessmen, but he did not allow the emergence of vicious competition.

He talked about what he thought was vicious competition, but from Mr. Simon's point of view, Lynch was just preventing people from violating some local laws and possibly federal laws, or that he was actually suppressing local people like Mr. Simon. foreign businessman.

Because they have been here for a longer time and are more familiar with the society and various levels here, if anyone would rely on criminal behavior to attack competitors, it would undoubtedly be people like Mr. Simon who has deep local connections.

Lynch made rules to restrain their local foreign businessmen, but did not regulate malicious behavior in competition, such as runs and bidding.

These two situations are almost the most feared by all businessmen, whether it is the former or the latter.

There are many ways to sell products, the most common one is return. Don’t think that there is no concept of return in this era. As long as customers feel that the product is not good, they can ask for a refund.

Whether to refund or not may be chosen by the businessman himself, but if there is a commotion due to non-refund, the businessman will bear the adverse effects caused by it.

But if it is refunded, someone else bought it and returned it again, so should he buy it again?
No stock, nothing to sell.

The purchase and return of returned goods will cause a backlog and take up a lot of money.

Not to mention the even more terrifying bidding here. Such things as price wars will cause merchants to lose their money. During the Preton Trading Company period, they directly specified a standard price, or a protection price to ensure the interests of every distributor. Only in this way can everyone support Preton Trading Company, and now all of this is over.

Federal merchants have more advantages than them, they are not opponents of federal merchants at all, perhaps leaving now is the most correct decision.

He frowned and walked into the study, and called his butler, "Recently, let me find out how much the real estate, real estate, and my factories and stores in my hands are worth..."

He tried his best to keep his words light, but the butler could still hear the difference. After hesitating for a while, the butler asked tentatively, "Master, are you planning to leave?"

"Leave?" Mr. Simon laughed, "Of course not, I met some businessmen from the Federation in this afternoon's salon. Preton Trading Company, we are still half masters!"

Very domineering remarks, but this did not convince the housekeeper that all of this was true.

While thinking about how to further dispel the suspicion on the housekeeper's face, Mr. Simon inadvertently saw his son at the edge of the yard. He was chatting with a young man through the low plant wall.

He frowned, but quickly relaxed, he didn't plan to take the child and his mother away, he just planned to go alone.

Not long after, the housekeeper came out of the study, just in time to bump into the young master who had finished the chat, and the latter saw the sad expression on the housekeeper's face at a glance.

As a good kid trying to prove himself, his observations are also very meticulous.

He walked up to the butler and asked softly, "Grandpa butler, what's wrong with you, it seems that something is bothering you."
