After temporarily solving the little things on Vera's side, Lynch found ASLE again. This time, he made an appointment with a relatively high-end cafe.
There used to be a lot of people here, but now there are not many guests. Everyone is considering saving money. They are not willing to consume some expensive and unnecessary things as they used to.
This also led to few people in the cafe, very quiet.
Asher came quickly, and Lynch asked him to sit opposite him. "Don't be nervous, and there's no specific job. This time I came to you, just want to talk to you about your hometown."
"My... Hometown?"
There was a short pause in Asher's expression, and his eyes lost their luster and focus, as if he were remembering what it was.
The duration of this memory was very short. He soon returned to reality. While apologizing for his distraction in the process of chatting, he was also a little confused about Lynch's problem.
"Mr. Lynch, my hometown is not a rich place. There is no developed and advanced scientific and technological system such as the Federation, and there is no industrial foundation. It is just a poor place. That's why we came out."
Speaking of his hometown, ASR sighed that it is indeed a poor place. It is not only backward, but also very poor and stupid.
So far, people still firmly believe that they will fall into the arms of gods after death. The gods they believe in created the world. Every breath of this God is the rebirth and destruction of the world. In short, it is a great God.
Any country whose theocracy is higher than the secular regime will be very backward in the development of science and technology, because they spend a lot of time, energy and financial resources on how to please the gods who do not exist at all, let alone give them feedback.
Ignoring the progress and development of science and technology and society, ASR's hometown has nothing to do in his eyes.
If religious color and the beautiful natural environment caused by the lack of technical and industrial foundation can also be regarded as one of the few advantages, then this is the only remaining and few advantages.
However, since Lynch mentioned it, ASL talked more or less about some things about his hometown. In fact, he and his family have written letters, but each contact takes a long time.
"Tell me about the distribution of political power, its general structure, social class, economy and so on. Anything can be said."
Lynch's further exploration made Astor more confused, "Mr. Lynch, no offense, can I know why you are interested in these? Or what you are interested in, so that I can find the things you want in more detail."
Lynch smiled. "You know, the new president is coming to power. Next, we will usher in a new era. In the past, we closed the door, and no one knows who we stand on."
"Now we have opened the door to let people see our position, which will also let us usher in many opportunities that have not appeared before!"
"I often talk to you about social responsibility. This responsibility is not only the social responsibility of the Federation, but also the responsibility of the international community. We should bear it."
ASR can clearly know how to spell every word in these words, which has several meanings, but he is very confused that his understanding ability seems to be wrong, because after these words he can easily figure out are organized together, he can't understand a word.
However, it's not embarrassing to not understand. ASL, who worships Lynch, did not hesitate to talk about those things in his hometown, society, economy, culture, and the biggest contradiction there - the struggle between political power and theocracy!
They sat here for forty or fifty minutes, during which the waiter continued many cups. After Asher finished, his mouth was dry, but he always maintained his demeanor in front of Lynch.
Lynch listened to what he said with a thoughtful look. After thinking about it for a few minutes, he asked another question, "Asher, would you like to go home if you have a chance?"
Aston, who was still very relaxed, became nervous, and the expression on his face turned uneasy, "go home? No, Mr. Lynch, did I do something wrong?"
In his impression, going home has actually become the biggest punishment for his life. You know, he can now settle down in the Baylor Federation, and his family has received great preferential treatment.
That backward country is relatively backward in the forces of the international community. They have inherent fear of powerful countries, but it is precisely because of this that they increasingly advocate divine power.
It sounds like... It's hard to understand. Shouldn't it unite to study the development of science and technology?
In fact, when a place is too backward, when people face advanced science and technology, it is like facing things in myth. At the same time, in order to consolidate their power and strength, the supporters of theocracy will instill a wrong idea into the people that faith can defeat material.
Of course, the bottom people have been fooled by them, but the ruling class is still relatively sober.
When ASR got the residence permit of Baylor Federation and his social security number, and became a serious "foreigner", his parents, brothers and sisters seemed a lot tougher when talking to people, and his social treatment was better.
If you let him go back now, his parents, brothers and sisters, how much preferential treatment and respect they have received from the society over the years, it is not just spitting back with interest!
Looking at Asher's anxious expression, Lynch slowly picked up his coffee and took a sip. "Asher, my friend, you're too nervous. Haven't you considered another possibility?"
He put down the cup and moved very gently. There was no collision between the coffee cup and the saucer. "Not only you go back, I will go and do business."
"Doing business?", ASLE's eyes widened and widened. "Sorry, Mr. Lynch, I don't understand at all. Is there anything that can fall into your eyes in that backward and poor place?"
Lynch slightly √, "you are wrong. In fact, your hometown is full of all kinds of amazing wealth, but you and those people can't see."
"Gold, precious stones, spices, precious minerals, some plants, even some animals and their fur, these things are money as long as they are transported from you!"
This is also the most basic way for the advanced society to plunder the backward society. Some things you know can become money, but because the technology is not up to standard, you can only export raw materials and earn very meager profits.
It is even possible that they can't make any money because they can't be transported out.
This is a good time. The whole world is busy rebuilding and developing itself. Their eyes have not looked at the whole world, and people will not care about some changes in a poor place, which gives Lynch great convenience.
ASR thought for a moment, and it is true that this is the truth. In fact, his memory of his hometown has been a little blurred, but there are still some impressive things.
For example, the high priests wearing gold and silver in each village, such as the dense virgin forest that will lose its way, such as all kinds of minerals hidden underground but unable to mine.
These are all money, but
"What about transportation? Mr. Lynch, if those things are transported out, their cost may be more expensive than the finished products we buy locally?" ASL once again put forward some of his views. When the transportation level is not developed enough, the transportation cost is also a headache in cost control.
Lynch said lightly, "then solve it locally. The value of a meal of gold ore is completely different from that of a meal of gold. If it is a ton of gold, I believe we can make enough profits even if we spend money to transport it back."
Isn't it? Isn't it enough to make money by turning stones into finished gold ingots?
Before ASLE could continue to ask, Lynch continued, "this is also one of the responsibilities of the international community I proposed. As a developed and advanced country, we should help some backward countries develop science and technology. I believe that if I bring equipment and funds to invest in your hometown, they will give me some convenience, don't you think?"
This sentence makes ASR irrefutable. Although his hometown is poor, backward and stupid, the ruling class is not so stupid.
They will greedily allow Lynch to do things there, let Lynch put down his guard, and then quietly and slowly change something until they take Lynch's assets there.
Astor felt that he should tell Lynch about this situation, but Lynch just smiled and didn't answer him. He even told Astor that this matter has been basically determined and is the main development direction and plan this year.
As long as he can handle the president and that damn new Department, he will take people to ASR's hometown immediately.
As for why it is ASR's hometown, it is actually very simple. There are enough poor, backward and ignorant, but it is rich in natural minerals and resources. At the same time, he also has a reliable local - ASR as a guide.
With these help, all that remains is some simple work.
If the aborigines want to try, he doesn't mind letting the aborigines and their gods know the pronunciation of the word "bullet", its meaning, and making people fear it.
Plunder is never just and merciful. Every large-scale plunder between civilizations is bloody. Some people can't adapt and will be eliminated, while those who adapt will become part of the interest groups around Lynch!
