"Sorry, I'm so hungry!"

After swallowing the food in his mouth, Senator Langdon picked up his napkin and wiped his hands. He stained the residual oil stains on his lips and put the napkin at hand.

"What project, about what?"

Lynch handed a cigarette to congressman Langdon. Their heads caught fire at the starting point. He said as he vomited, "the military appropriations committee, the Ministry of defense has set up a new budget, a little more than 30 million, but the money does not go to the Ministry of Defense's own account, but it needs to be appropriated by Congress..."

Sounds like a little shit?

This is perfectly normal.

Does the defense department and the military have money?

The answer is yes, and there are many. In fact, they don't know how to spend all their money by the end of the year.

It is only February now. It can be said that this year has just begun. Part of the budget made last year has been approved this year, and a large amount of military spending will be allocated in the future.

In addition, a large number of active servicemen have just been sent away to retire, but the budget seems to have forgotten this matter and is still calculated according to the scale before the major disarmament.

But even if the military and the Defense Department don't know how to spend their money, they won't use their money to pay for orders outside the budget.

For example, Lynch's order is not included in the budget made last year, so it needs to go through a new process. When the Military Commission thinks the money needs to be spent, they will pay Lynch.

After all, the military has "no money".

To tell a joke, the general of the Ministry of Defense said that every cent of the money of the Ministry of defense and the military has been returned, and the soldiers are poor and can't afford bread.

Well, they didn't lie. They ate beef and mutton until they wanted to vomit. It is said that the ranch purchased is still the ranch operated by the military

In fact, we all know some things, but knowing is knowing, and doing is another matter.

It is impossible for those members of Congress to offend the military for the money of the state and taxpayers - the Ministry of defense is the Ministry of defense, and the military is the military. Sometimes the two institutions are one, but more often they are separated.

These congressional committees related to budget and appropriations will not approve all applications. Appropriately rejecting some will help improve their image in the eyes of the people and make them look like the last patron saint of taxpayers and taxpayers.

At the same time, it also helps to improve their status in Congress and even the whole federal political arena. You know, the main members of those powerful committees are almost senators.

Some people say that Congress is like a maze. People who do not know the situation in it plunge into it, let alone find a way out. They may not even have a chance to retreat.

But if you understand the situation here, Congress is home. Members are brothers and sisters, and nothing can't be discussed.

"It has something to do with the Ministry of defense..." congressman Langdon's expression was a little more serious. The full name of the military appropriations committee is the "Federal Military Planning and equipment preparation Appropriations Committee".

This committee and the Federal Military Budget Review Committee firmly control how much money the military can take from Congress every year.

One is responsible for the budget and the other is allocated according to the budget. Obviously, it can be completed in a committee. However, they are separated for the purpose of so-called "reducing disadvantages". Sometimes people have to spend money on the same thing twice.

What you really want to control can't be controlled. What you shouldn't control, you have to run back and forth. This is sweet freedom and justice.

He thought, "military Appropriation Committee, people here have a great appetite. You know, those military industrial groups run there every year..."

For example, some shipping companies that produce warships take a "small boat" at random, which is a business of tens of millions in two or three years.

The profits here are amazing, and they give money very happily.

There are also ordinary military equipment group companies. No matter how the Federation cuts down the number of soldiers in service, there are hundreds of thousands. Everyone changes two sets of new clothes, two pairs of leather boots, a belt, a pair of gloves and some other things

These alone can bring tens of millions of orders every year, not to mention the large companies that produce weapons and ammunition. A military exercise is a loss of millions. These people have never been soft in sending money to Congress.

Lynch had already prepared. He thought for two or three seconds with a cigarette. "How much do I have to take for this order to feed them?"

Senator Langdon shook his head and seemed to feel a little too much. "Three or five million is just the beginning. It's hard to say what to do."

He put his hands together, clenched them into fists, and pressed his elbows on the edge of the table. "You have no advantage in this regard. They may bite you hard. You should be prepared."

"It won't be too ugly.", Lynch smiled twice. "In short, please give it to you. Call me directly if there is anything specific. I'll stay here for the time being."

As he said this, he took out a promissory note from the Jinhui bank from his carry on bag, put it in a special folder and handed it to him.

"Five million. I'll give you an extra reward when it's done."

Looking at the folder pushed by Lynch, Senator Langdon tore his collar and suddenly became hot.

Five million, this is not a small number. Now it is in the file bag in front of us.

A bank promissory note has a very convenient nature, that is, it does not need to verify any information. As long as it is verified that the promissory note is true, it can be settled immediately in any bank.

They won't ask the holder's name, identity, where to get the promissory note and what to do with the money. They will only exchange the money for the holder of the promissory note.

Lynch, as a party, cannot have direct interests with these senators and representatives. This pure and straightforward relationship is prohibited.

This process must be completed through a third party or even more, which is another industry with federal characteristics of buppen, an industry that is not illegal but also illegal, and is not completely money laundering.

It doesn't have any exact name, but every year a lot of money flows into bupenn's countless private foundations in a different way through these companies.

On a bonus day, they enter the account of a big man. These big men don't even need to pay a penny of tax for this money - financial investment income doesn't need to pay tax!

Death and taxes inevitable?

That's because you haven't really been free!

The meal was eaten quickly. After Lynch left, Senator Langdon didn't leave immediately, but continued to enjoy the delicious food.

Some time ago, he went to the mountains in the west to check the environmental problems. The local food was very... He thought he would miss the city because of the prosperity, but he didn't expect that he wanted to return to the city for the first time because of the food.

Chewing a small steak of dozens of dollars, he inadvertently swallowed a worker's half a month's salary.

After sipping the wine, the other half month's salary was gone.

He sat in his chair, thinking about what to do next.

I have to say that investing in Lynch is the right step. If a congressman wants to open his network of contacts in Congress, he must have money.

It sounds incredible, but this is the essence of Congress. As long as you have money and are willing to spend money, someone will be willing to make friends with you.

During this time, Senator Langdon has personally realized this, and the role of money is really unlimited.

You can save face for a congressman, but you can't save face for a senator who came to persuade you to change your mind.

If you can refuse a senator's friendly request, can you refuse a former governor's request, even a former president or former vice president's request?

No, no, it's impossible, and the big people in the party.

It's easy to be friends with them. Just give them money.

Sometimes members of Congress don't know why Congress is like this, but soon their reflection on the current situation of Congress is forgotten in the flying of bills and checks with the smell of special ink.

The next day, Senator Langdon began to act. After removing the handling fee of $5 million, there was still more than 4.3 million left. This money can legally flow into any foundation anytime, anywhere.

Now all he has to do is take the money and talk to the senators.

It's a good choice to borrow Lynch's money and open up your contacts.

Of course, he will always be Lynch's firm friend if he can always be rich.

For several days, there was no good news from Congress, but Lynch had a relationship with the mayor of bupaine.

This is also a matter of no choice. No matter whether Congress can pass the money or not, things will always be sold when they are studied.

If the military doesn't buy it, it will sell it to the rich.

Rich people don't want to, then create local conflicts, and someone will always pay for these planes!

It is precisely because to start mass production, more than ten assembly lines have placed orders, and then we have to start recruiting workers.

There are assembly lines for the production of engines and aircraft fuselages. They are mature commodities that can be used after simple debugging.

Within one month, the project can be officially started.

Thousands of jobs are enough for the mayor to meet a stranger in person, let alone a famous man like Lynch.

Why do rich people always know big people?

Because their random action can change certain patterns in some places and affect a large number of people.

Whether it is good or bad, local politicians must be positive.

In the comfortable and warm room, buppen's mayor, mayor's secretary and his staff all smiled and chatted with Lynch.

I don't think "thousands of jobs" is a "small thing". Their enthusiastic attitude will always make people subconsciously ignore. In other places, they are not like this face!
