Early the next morning, the second-hand goods auction on Saturday became the focus of public discussion.

The economy is sluggish and the unemployment rate is high, but the consumption level will not and cannot regress, which makes the demand of many families only in the plan forever.

In fact, Saibin city and even the whole Federation had places for second-hand commodity trading. For example, in some alleys in the lower urban area, people would deal with things stolen from other places cheaply, including more clothes.

Antique shops often accept second-hand goods that look newer. In addition to antique shops, there are also small shops specializing in recycling second-hand electrical appliances and real pawnbrokers.

But the pawnbrokers in the Baile Federation are not the same as those in another world. In the Baile Federation, pawnbrokers only deal in luxury goods, and they are not interested in businesses that may only have a few dollars.

Therefore, the whole second-hand commodity trading industry is still in a semi desolate stage. Many people have not realized the wealth here, which just makes Lynch find a bargain.

To say that this large-scale second-hand commodity auction organized by Lynch yesterday was something that had never happened in the history of the Federation, and immediately attracted the attention of the people.

The core that can attract everyone's attention mainly has two parts.

The first part is Lynch's second-hand commodity auction. Is it really like what the newspaper said, there are everything, complete types and low prices.

The second thing that attracts people's discussion is that the trading volume yesterday was almost 500000!

The money was to be taxed, and Lynch didn't intend to hide it. He was generous to disclose the real information to the newspaper, including the tax bureau, which shocked the people of Saibin city at once.

In this season, it can create a trading volume of 500000 in an afternoon. How many things did they sell and how much did they sell.

No matter how much discussion and speculation outside, it can not change the fact that Lynch's interstellar trading company and the second-hand commodity trading auction suddenly became popular, together with Mr. Mayor.

The lunch that should have been put on the day after tomorrow was also moved to noon on Sunday by the mayor.

He would have spent a happy weekend with his family at this time, but Lynch's big surprise forced him to take some time out at noon to deal with this matter.

Their lunch was held in a relatively private place, from the countryside to the core of the Federation, filled with all kinds of private places of business nature, so as to facilitate people in need to talk about some secret things anytime and anywhere.

It was a simple lunch. Lynch arrived at the appointed place ten minutes in advance, and the mayor just arrived later.

The mayor is in his forties. His hair is a little gray and looks very tired.

He was a little fat, but not fat. He was just fuller than normal. He looked about five feet seven inches. In this era, he was not short.

A person who looks a little strict, but seems very easy-going.

With the introduction of Ferrar, they said hello, even if they knew each other.

Ferrar took the initiative to stare at the chef to cook food for them, and deliberately gave the space here to the two people.

The mayor took out a cloth bag from his pocket. There was a beautiful pipe in it. The golden wood pattern gave people a very golden feeling.

"Do you mind?" the mayor asked. Lynch shook his head. Then he stuffed some cigarettes into his pipe, lit it with a blowtorch and took two puffs. The whole person looked a little relaxed.

"I like this, although some people say they are unhealthy..." he smiled, and the topic quickly shifted from the pipe to what happened yesterday. "Today, my original plan was to be with the children, but I saw the news this morning. To be honest, I was shocked."

"With a turnover of 500000, you may have made a history!", the mayor did not stint his praise. After the news came out, his staff gathered in his study and talked about the auction.

In their opinion, the transaction volume of 500000 is about equivalent to meeting the material needs of at least one million sol in the bottom society - sol is the unit of federal popular currency, and sol is also a person's name. He established the Federation and was the first president of the Federation.

People call him a hero. In order to commemorate the hero, after national discussion, it is finally determined to print his portrait on paper money, and people will also call the money "Sol".

This is an official name. In life, no one will say "a federal sol" so foolishly. They will only say "a dollar".

One million federal sol, spread it evenly. It can not be said that yesterday afternoon, this second-hand commodity trading auction met the short-term material needs of 10000 families in Saibin, which has become a very terrible number.

Through some processing and policy guidance, it can be said that the second-hand commodity fair held under the promotion of the city hall and your Excellency the mayor has greatly satisfied the pursuit and longing for a better life of the people at the bottom of Saibin City, and reduced some potential social contradictions, which is definitely a worthy achievement!

He and his staff didn't expect Lynch to do so well, which was beyond everyone's expectation. He can delay other things, but he won't wait for things related to his vital interests.

Lynch was very modest. "I can make such achievements thanks to the free market environment of Saibin and the local policies full of goodwill and support for new things, especially you, who have given me great help in this regard."

His face was not red and his heart did not jump. These flattering words made the mayor smile more. He had not seen shameless businessmen. He had seen a lot of such businessmen.

But what Lynch could say made him feel that he was really such a great businessman. It was the first time he saw him. He suddenly felt that Lynch was a very interesting person. At least he was good at talking.

This is also the main reason why he and Lynch advance the meeting time. He plans to launch Lynch and his business as the political achievements dominated by the local city hall, so there will be more people from all aspects to examine and find fault.

He and Lynch must have the same caliber, so that both sides will get the expected benefits, so that there will be no scandal and trouble.

He thought that Lynch, a young man, was not very talkative. Young people always felt that the world would not turn without him. Unexpectedly, Lynch was so sensible that he had some accidents. He didn't look like a child of an ordinary family.

Suddenly from a bystander to a leader, although this is the mayor's idea from the beginning, it still makes him feel a little guilty, just a little, insignificant.

He held his pipe in his hand and said if he pointed, "I heard you're going to cover the whole state?"

Lynch nodded calmly. "Inspired by your personality charm, Mr. Mayor, I think we should put aside the limitations of the region and bear more social responsibility. As long as it is meaningful and good for people, we should try our best to do it."

"Moreover, I will not only sell second-hand goods, but also recycle second-hand goods on a large scale throughout the state, so as to turn some goods that are shelved, can not work and can not produce effective value."

"For me, things that may not be useful for the time being will play an important role in other people's lives. Through special trading channels, we can meet the material needs of the bottom of society without increasing their economic burden."

"They can even sell second-hand goods when life is difficult to alleviate the huge financial pressure on families, which will improve the financial and living conditions of millions of families in the next few years."

"I firmly believe that!"

During Lynch's expression, the mayor kept nodding, and he thought more. Lynch's words are very enlightening. If he can do all he said, there is no doubt that it will become a shining political achievement during the mayor's administration of Saibin city.

He had a general understanding, and the smile on his face became more kind. "Your idea is very good. When I talked with the governor before, he talked about the ideas of young people now. It's very interesting. If I have a chance, I'll introduce you..."

He paused and asked, "what do you think of the federal progressive party?"

Lynch showed great enthusiasm, "this is a very excellent party..."
