As soon as Lynch got home in the morning, the maid told him that Mr. Ferrar had called him and asked him to call back as soon as possible.

This is very inconvenient in the era of no mobile communication. If a person doesn't stay in a specific place, people all over the world can't find him!

Lynch soon called ferral back. He explained the purpose of his call to Lynch.

The mayor has submitted Lynch's application form for joining the federal progressive party. Lynch does not need to operate these by himself. The federal progressive party development office will help him handle these forms.

At the same time, about Wednesday, the day after tomorrow, the State Office of the federal progressive party will send someone to Saibin to meet Lynch. Members like him who are recommended by a city mayor and join the Progressive Party will be treated more senior.

The development commissioner will talk with Lin Qi about his impression of the Progressive Party, whether Lin Qi has any suggestions for the Progressive Party, and whether he needs the help of the progressive party.

Ferral told Lynch that he could say anything, but he could never ask for help, which was not a good thing.

Many people who have just joined the Progressive Party do not know this. They talk about some difficulties they face in business or work. Some can be solved by the progressive party. After they solve them, they will start asking for returns.

They just tell you that we have given you help, so should you give others, some friends of other progressive parties, some help within your ability?

In fact, this method can easily make a person and the whole completely integrated, but sometimes it will have some problems. Not everyone likes such "dedication".

In addition, there will be a charity auction in Honshu on Saturday night to raise funds to solve the problem of unemployment assistance subsidies in some cities. Lynch is also invited to participate. On Monday next week, Lynch will set aside time and the city hall will hold an inquiry meeting to discuss with you how to revitalize urban development.

Lynch didn't refuse these activities. He carefully recorded the time. The higher a person's value in society, the more he can't guarantee complete independence.

Many people think that being rich should be a very free thing. In some ways, it is true, but sometimes it will be very free, because the development of all aspects of society requires these people to put forward their own ideas or make their own contributions.

For example, people who have a lot of money and can do nothing all day long just play hard, whether in this world or another world, do not exist.

No one can be absent from all kinds of meetings and activities. Sometimes ladies and gentlemen in the upper class will be very tired, and this kind of mental and physical fatigue is much more tired than the simple physical fatigue of manual workers.

At this time, Lynch suddenly remembered what Catherine said that day. The so-called upper class society may be spent in chatting and eating.

The next day, Tuesday afternoon, Lynch took a bus to the place agreed with Rooney to visit his factory.

At the previous reception, this guy met with him to seek opportunities for cooperation, which is also the purpose of Lynch here.

He believes that as the federal situation gets worse and worse, many things will relax requirements, including employment related bills.

People are starving to death. Who is still thinking about the bill or not? The most important thing is to make money, buy food and fill your stomach!

As soon as the car stopped, lunit rushed up with his secretary, refused Lynch's driver to open the door for him and opened the door for Lynch himself.

If his current situation was not in jeopardy, how could a factory owner make such a move?

"Please pick me up in person..." after Lynch got off the bus, he sorted out his clothes, held out his hand and shook hands with lunit. Compared with his calm and introverted and his strong self-confidence, lunit is like an insignificant supporting role in some stories.

He slightly hooked his waist, not like bending down, but absolutely not straight. He didn't want to show his "flattery", but he wasn't tough enough. He was a man who swayed from side to side.

"Yes, I'm already very happy that you can come, so will you visit my factory next?" he said, leading Lynch towards the factory.

The factory has about 40 mu of land, with three workshops and a warehouse. This kind of factory is very common in the industrial zone. It may be to let Lynch see a "lively" scene. Today, the workers in the workshop are all here, and they are all wearing clean work clothes and working hard.

Lunit probably regarded Lynch as a young man with little social experience. He thought that the other party had not entered the factory area, and naturally he would not understand how stupid his actions were.

In fact, no matter sewing workers or heavy manual workers, their work clothes can't be clean, especially the workers on the assembly line. The high-intensity work and higher pressure make them don't care whether they dirty their clothes at all.

But here, everyone is wearing clean clothes. They handle their work slowly, as if they were dealing with art, not a commodity.

What Lynch mainly looked at was not these people and their level. He looked at the situation of these sewing machines.

At present, the federal garment factories use the industrial sewing machine powered by semi manpower and semi steam used in lunit factory. It has one handle and four pedals, which is completed by manually stepping on the pedals when dealing with some detailed places.

Only those long-line sewing jobs use steam power, which also makes the workshop very hot. With the pressure relief sound, there will be heat flow from the steam pipe.

In fact, in addition to this kind of sewing machine powered by steam, there are some electric sewing machines, but the sales volume and utilization rate of that kind of sewing machine are not high.

The hidden cost of expensive electricity is still too high compared with cheap steam. Maybe one day's power consumption can buy enough fuel for one week, so steam powered sewing machines are the mainstream.

As for the fact that it will make the workbench and workspace hot and dry, it is not something that factory owners consider at all. They never care whether the workers are comfortable at work.

"The machines are very new..." Lynch observed. These machines look well maintained, and there is no obvious wear and tear.

Lunit didn't know why, but he nodded and said, "these are new machines updated two years ago. They can be said to be no different from the new ones."

Two years ago, the business was not so difficult. He invested a lot of money in upgrading. As a result, he soon encountered problems such as production reduction, and the loss was very serious.

What he said is not an exaggeration. These machines are used less and less after they are bought back. At the beginning, they can still work and rest one day. Up to now, they have basically stopped work in an all-round way.

Had it not been for avoiding being filed for bankruptcy, he might have applied for a complete shutdown.

After a few workshops, Lynch came to Rooney's office. His office was very elegant. It can be seen that he had a good life a few years ago.

All kinds of exquisite, grand and luxurious furniture make it not like a factory owner's office, but like a president's office, but it also supports lunit's difficulties and some small comics at this time.

Lynch sat on a separate sofa. Rooney's secretary brought him coffee. He didn't drink it. Who knows when these coffee beans came from. Judging from the operation of this factory, they may even need to make a budget to buy coffee beans.

Lunit looked at Lynch with an expectant face. He was eager for Lynch to give him a positive answer. Even if it was just some small orders, he could hold on for another period of time.

Many factory owners like lunit are actually facing the same embarrassing situation. Once they announce a complete shutdown and can't return to work in a short time, they violate the land use agreement they signed with the city hall.

They will not only lose their factory land, but also lose all the real estate on this land. At that time, even if they can survive for a period of time, they will directly declare bankruptcy under this blow.

So even if these factory owners really can't raise money, even if they borrow money and go for loans, they should start work every other period of time to at least get rid of these problems.

He looked at Lynch eagerly, and Lynch naturally gave him some hope, "do you have the latest magazine related to fashion, and newspapers are OK."

Lunit immediately looked at his secretary, who quickly said yes, and soon found a fashion magazine last month, which was full of beautiful clothes and accessories, which were some of the most cutting-edge things in the fashion industry.

Lynch flipped casually, then threw the magazine on the table, "these clothes, these bags and accessories, can you do it here?"

Lunit was a little surprised. He wasn't sure what Lynch meant by this sentence, but he nodded, "it's not difficult. If the jewelry factory has the ability, the garment factory can complete the clothes. They have no technical difficulty, mainly the innovation and concept of design."

Lynch nodded noncommittally, "with similar materials, choose some of the most fashionable and popular clothing styles at present. 100 pieces of each kind, 1000 pieces of jewelry and matching bags. I'll give you a profit of one yuan for each piece. Can you do it?"

Lunit was very embarrassed to pick up the magazine and look at the introduction of some fashion and famous brand accessories above. These are products of some big brands, which have design patents. "If I am not authorized to make these products, I will be held accountable and even prosecuted..."

Lynch just smiled. "You won't go bankrupt immediately if you are sued, but you can't last a few days without this order."

"Do you choose to continue your business and face lawsuits that may not happen, or do you choose to go bankrupt in order to adhere to some ideas?"

"I respect those who have faith, but I don't sympathize with them. What would you choose?"

"Mr. Rooney?!"
