Chapter 143: 2 big troubles

"The first trouble, I plan to do import and export business, but I don't have import and export indicators..."

   In view of the Conservative Party’s isolation policy and the fear in the face of war, they believe that exporting goods to a war country or importing goods from a war country will implicate the war on themselves.

This idea was actually shared by the vast majority of people in the Baylor Federation at the beginning of the World War, including the fact that the Federal Progressive Party was unable to reach consensus on this issue, resulting in the Conservative Party having almost no difficulty in taking it. It is the result of this election.

   is precisely this kind of isolation policy. Even today, after the complete armistice of the world war, the federal foreign international trade has not recovered, only a limited amount of trade that cannot be refused is going on.

  For example, it is difficult for ordinary individuals or companies to manage large-scale international trade except for this inevitable foreign trade policy in exchange for some commodities from other countries that cannot be manufactured by the Federation itself or are not available locally.

And here we have to mention a special office in the cabinet government of the Conservative Party, the International Trade Approval Office. This office is under the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, but the Ministry of Defense also has cross-management powers. This shows that the country is currently vigilant about foreign trade. How high.

  Every year, what products can be exported and what products can be imported are all decided by this office.

   Individuals like Lynch who want to live in an export business basically don't think about it for a short time. Without this possibility, he doesn't even have the opportunity to work hard.

   The mayor's brows slowly tightened, and then he clenched them, which made the center of his eyebrows wrinkle together, and the two eyebrows seemed to rise, giving him a feeling of no anger and prestige.

   In fact, this feeling most of the time comes from his title, Your Excellency Mayor.

   If the frowning person is a homeless man, maybe he is not facing awe-inspiring gaze, but swearing with swear words and a shoe sole that may be stained with phlegm.

   "I need to ask, but hope is not great, at least if there is no change in the international affairs policy in the short term, the chance is not great."

He quickly came to a conclusion. In fact, so far, many people have proposed to engage in international trade, but the world war has just ended, and no one knows if an accidental border fire incident will cause the war again. Swept the world.

   So it will take some time to wait and see, but Your Excellency the Mayor did not tell the truth. The senior leaders within the Progressive Party have already determined that the world war has basically come to an end.

   It's not that everyone has become civilized. It is that most of the countries participating in the war have played out their brains. They have no ability to continue fighting unless they really want to subdue the country.

   Judging from the current world situation, war is to fight the overall strength of a country. If the thickness is lost, you can't even make bullets. What else?

However, the Conservative Party, which is based on the isolation policy and has achieved certain results, does not think so, or they have the same views as the Progressive Party, but they benefit from the peace brought by the isolation policy to the Commonwealth and the politics brought about by this policy. For the benefit, they are not willing to abandon the isolation policy before it can fully realize the influence of the isolation policy into political potential, so it will take a while.

As for the internals, it has actually been loosened, but this loosening will never let ordinary people know. Don’t watch the President of the Conservative Party criticize some of the "worries" of the Progress Party on TV all day long, and the leaders of the Progress Party are also on TV. To say that the President of the Conservative Party is a pig, the two parties actually have some consensus on a certain level.

   Ah, forget it again. In fact, there is the Federal Socialist Party, but that’s okay. They are used to being forgotten by people. Sometimes the newspapers only say "two parties" instead of "three parties."

If the Mayor really wants to do this, it may not be impossible. It is just that he used his favor to do this for Lynch, and he did not get much in return. He did not think it was a suitable one. s Choice.

   Sometimes politics is a very troublesome thing, but sometimes it is very simple, so simple that it is just a knowledge of a larger scale.

Lynch was not too surprised by this conclusion. He continued to cut the steak with an elegant demeanor, and said in a casual tone, "If I can get the right to free trade, I can solve the problem of leaving the Listoan Group for you. What is left afterwards is about employment issues."

He put a piece of tender and juicy beef into his mouth. When his lips and teeth were closed and chewed, the gravy was splashing. It felt great. "Maybe more. We can push down the unemployment rate. I believe the more it is now. In this case, the more people are willing to work, what do you think?"

   You don’t need to ask. If there is a suitable... or even inappropriate job that can get paid, everyone is willing to go to work, even if they are tired and dirty, they don’t care.

   There is at least a job and at least income, and at least one can survive. If there is no income, the wealth they have accumulated over the past ten years, decades or even generations of talents will be evaporated in an instant.

   This is cruel, but kindness cannot save the world.

"Is the profit of the import and export business so large?" The mayor was a little horrified. If the import and export trade can bring such a large profit, then maybe this will become an important policy for the Progressive Party to cleanly kill the Conservative Party, as long as it implements it. An open policy will do. This is too simple.

Lynch smiled, something that made the mayor's heart throb in his smile. The head in front of him was full of wax, and he combed his big back to make himself look more mature. In fact, he only had the face of a twenty-year-old young man. The smile he showed was like some big politicians and big capitalists he had seen before, revealing a contemptuous smile with an insight into the hearts of the people and the world.

   But before these smiles only appeared on old people, now they appear on a young man who can be his own son.

   Lynch put down the knife and fork, picked up the napkin and dipped the juice on his mouth. The smile on his face has not disappeared from the beginning until now, but it has become clearer and clearer.

He pressed his hands on the two corners of the table, leaned back slightly, and stretched his upper body. He was about the same height as the mayor, and a little taller than the mayor. His current sitting posture gave the mayor a surprising sense of oppression. .

   "This has something to do with the second trouble I faced. Are you interested in hearing it?"

The mayor also put down his knife and fork in silence. He stretched out his hand to lift the goblet and drink a little to relieve the inexplicable tension, but when he saw the bright red liquid that looked like blood, he put his hand back again. Nodded, "Maybe I will be interested."

   "I plan to change the current method of employment, no longer assume minimum working hours and other standards, and turn employment into cooperation...", Lynch's words made the mayor's brows clasped together again.

The "Minimum Hourly Wage Law" has been promulgated for many years. It will be revised once a year in accordance with the price level and then publicized to the whole society. All business owners, factory owners, and any bosses who hire others to work must abide by this rule. bill.

  The working hours of each worker shall not be less than 60 hours per week, but not more than 72 hours.

   If the working hours arranged by the factory or work unit are less than 60 hours, in addition to the effective working hours are paid in accordance with the hourly wage in the employment contract, other hours are paid in accordance with the minimum hourly wage method.

  In other words, if the factory hires a worker and prevents him from doing work, he must be paid every month according to the minimum hourly wage law.

  If more than 72 hours are exceeded, the salary will be paid according to the hourly rate of overtime. At present, the minimum standard of overtime hourly wage in Baylor Federation is 120% of ordinary working hours, which is the lowest standard.

Generally speaking, this greatly protects the legitimate interests of the workers. When this bill was announced through the Congress, all the working class and the middle and low-level people were rejoicing in it. Some people even found their factory owners with newspapers. Business owners, read the above content to these hateful capitalists in person.

  People say that this is a law that protects the working class. In fact, it also protects capitalists. Of course, this is another matter.

Since the establishment of this bill, many people have used huge fines and bankruptcies to prove that it is an untouchable bottom line. In the Baylor federal judicial system, there is a "punitive sentencing/punishment standard" guidance ~www.mtlnovel .com~ When the court thinks that a heavy punishment needs to be given to someone so that both him and the society realize that some mistakes cannot be made, this standard will be used. It may be that a fine of 10,000 yuan will become one million.

   For example, the sentence was originally only one year in prison, but it suddenly increased to five years, ten years and so on. The purpose of this was to punish and establish a model.

   Lynch’s words suddenly made the mayor a little nervous. One carelessness may cause a series of events. Workers’ protests and protests then turn into crowd demonstrations, and eventually they may turn into riots.

We must know that although these people at the bottom of society are indeed pitiful sometimes, they often do things that make people angry. Will find the problem from oneself.

   Lynch will trigger this characteristic of them. They will think that their unemployment is the inaction and persecution of capitalists and even politicians, and it will be another storm at that time.

Before Lynch could finish speaking, he interrupted Lynch’s words, "Your thoughts are dangerous, Lynch, if you are not careful, it will be a big mistake. Even if I am willing to give you a hand, I can’t. Move you."

   "There are some things you can touch, even if you fail, people will forgive you, because you are a young man."

   "But there are some things you can't touch, whether you are young or intentional, as long as you touch, you will become a sinner!"
