Blackstone Code

Chapter 896: Attitude change

The senator's "wait a minute" and the House of Representatives' "wait a minute" are somewhat different.

The elevator doors that had been closed in the desperate gaze of Mr. Senator slowly opened again. Senator Langdon asked with a smile, "Are you going down too?"

Mr. Senator breathed a sigh of relief, "No, you have something left in my office."

This is a very obvious cliché, even everyone in this elevator knows what he means, but it is useful because it avoids any embarrassment that may arise.

Senator Langdon felt a little strange in his heart, but he walked out of the elevator anyway, "Is it right, I seem to be walking in a hurry, thank you for coming and telling me."

I'm here to tell you why you didn't bring things easily. Of course, there are some things to be said separately in the office.

Senator Langdon stepped out of the elevator. In Congress, he learned an experience called "The more friends the better."

He will not get angry just because Mr. Senator rejected him and let himself "get out". It is meaningless to be angry.

If a politician gets angry when he has nothing to do, he will spend his entire life in anger.

Either colleagues accuse them of being wasteful, or the people call them like dogs, or the media exposes their scandals. How can there be any happy time?

To be a human being, one must know how to enjoy, and must know how to tolerate and forgive.

The two returned to the Senator's office. This time Mr. Senator took the initiative to invite Senator Langdon to sit on the chair that represents equality...

Well, it's still a little bit worse, because there is a table representing the identity of the owner of this house between the two. If they were sitting on the sofa, the situation would be much better.

The two sat face to face for more than ten seconds, and no one spoke. Mr. Senator had to break the quiet environment at this time.

"Just now……"

He paused here with a smile, as if nothing happened just now. It would be more embarrassing if it were placed on ordinary people, but they were politicians.

Shame is the basis of becoming a politician, and this embarrassment seems to have never happened to them.

Senator Langdon quickly followed, "What happened just now?"

"No, it's nothing, let's talk about that budget."

The senator player was playing with a pen on the table, which was worth more than one thousand yuan. The pen was constantly spinning in his hand. "After you left, I looked at the budget again. Although there are some problems in it, I don’t think it’s impossible. solve."

"My job is to discover and solve problems!"

Senator Langdon didn't know what caused the senator to change his position in such a short period of time, but he still tried his best to cooperate in this regard, "I can explain to you if there is any problem."

The senator shrugged and put the pen back on the table. "I think maybe we should sit down and talk with Mr. Lynch?"

"I mean that he can definitely solve some more professional problems. I don't intend to offend, after all, it involves some high-tech fields."

Senator Langdon suddenly understood that his weight was too light, so light that the Senator was not even willing to reach an agreement with Lynch through himself, but had to reach an agreement with Lynch himself.

This is also normal. He is just a lucky congressman. Once a distinguished politician joked in private that he could send a dog into the House of Representatives if he wanted to.

Of course, this is just a joke, but it also illustrates the position of the House of Representatives in federal politics.

Not as good as above, or even as below.

City legislators and state legislators seem to have less power than congressmen. They can participate in various committees and hold important positions, but these people hold certain real power.

What they face directly is the residents in the city, or the power that connects with them is the power of the voters!

Senator Langdon had also contacted many city councillors in Sabine before, and behind these people, it was not the shareholders of large companies in the certain area that were supporting them, or the residents of the lower district of certain supporting them.

It's okay to be tough when dealing with them, but too tough can easily lead to demonstrations.

Instead, in the House of Representatives, the House of Representatives was completely separated from the people's foundation and stood in mid-air.

You can't stand up to the sky, that's the place of the senators.

The place could not touch the ground, there was no place in that place, so the position of the House of Representatives seemed so embarrassing.

At the same time, this also gave the House of Representatives the motivation to climb up.

Cooperate with the party to do a good job, obey the arrangements and leadership of the party committee, and you may have the opportunity to go up.

Senator Langdon still has a chance. He is actually still young. As long as he can always follow Lynch and get Lynch's support, he may not have the chance to enter the Senate.

He is very clear about his position and role, and he doesn't feel offended in this way.

"Of course, it's just that Mr. Lynch is not in Buppen now, it may be a little later before you can meet."

The senator hesitated, a little later?

Are you late when you can't reflect your own value?

This is not what he wants!

What he wants is to give him hope when Lynch feels there is no hope in this matter, so that he can reflect his role and value.

Senator Langdon didn't know what caused Mr. Senate to change his mind, but he knew that the initiative had changed hands now.

Everyone is a federal politician, and there is no way to talk about who is strong and who is weak. It's just status and gap.

He put his hands on the armrest and looked at Mr. Senator unhurriedly, maintaining a reserved smile.

After a while, Mr. Senator said, "Do you have a way to reach Mr. Lynch?"

Senator Langdon hesitated, then said with a smile, "Of course..."

After making an appointment to play together next time, Mr. Senate sent Congressman Langdon away. When he returned to the office, it happened that his friend at the Ministry of Defense sent the video over.

This kind of behavior is legal, and it is probably equivalent to submitting materials to recommend whether to approve the additional budget of the Ministry of Defense. No one can say that it is illegal.

Look, the politicians of the Federation can always make these things so clear and never miss it.

Back in the lounge, closing the door, he stuffed the videotape into the player. Although the color of the picture was slightly monotonous, and the texture of the picture was rough, it did not prevent him from recognizing the facts conveyed by these pictures.

The method of war is about to change.

Every time a plane dives, the moment it approaches the ground and pulls up, there will be a violent explosion in the forest, large swaths of tree crowns are shaken, and some slowly fall down.

That was the effect of the explosion. Mr. Senator didn’t know how they did it, but he knew what it meant.

If the jungle is a...for example, Gafra’s battleship, it does not have the ability to defend against the enemy in the air. At this time, a group of planes launched a dive on it...

"The shell has eyes!"

He said this to himself in a shocked tone. The cannonball has eyes, and this is the most terrifying thing.

He also understands why the military and the Ministry of National Defense are so anxious about this matter. Even his half layman knows that there will be no "accidents" in this matter.

Whoever makes an "accident" appear will have an "accident"!

At ten thirty, he sat on the phone, listening to the busy tone in the receiver, and waited for more than ten seconds. He didn't feel bored and bored at all, but took it very seriously.

"it's me……"

Lynch’s voice is very recognizable. The whole expression of the senator sitting behind the desk came alive at this moment, and his face was filled with a sincere smile, “Mr. Lynch, I took the liberty to interrupt your rest, I’m Senator of Congress..., currently serving as a member of the Federal Military Appropriations Committee."

He paused to give Lynch time to understand his title, and then continued, “Before the Ministry of Defense submitted an additional budget, it is now at the end of the review, and there are basically no major problems. I don’t quite understand some places. When do you think we can sit down and talk?"

He said very tactfully. First, he said that the budget can be passed, but it is best for both parties to meet.

Lynch on the other end of the phone knew what this guy was going to do. He wanted to take his favor and sell himself in place.

The politicians of the Federation are all this virtue. They have helped you. If you succeed, you can’t wait to make a loudspeaker standing next to you every day to remind you loudly that you have to remember this favor.

But if it is the favor they owe you, they will try to dilute the relationship as much as possible, unless it is impossible to compromise.

This also made Lynch realize that the budget was passed, the committee could not stop it, and began to take the initiative to sell favors, he must pass the other party if he accepts it.

But he doesn't need to let the other party lose face, after all, he is a senator, and it can be somewhat useful.

"Of course, sir, I will probably return to Buppen the day after tomorrow, and then we can talk carefully." Lynch's voice also showed appropriate closeness and enthusiasm when he answered.

Mr. Senator heaved a sigh of relief. He felt that Lynch did not feel that he was a mess because he had dragged on for so long. This was good news.

It is more appropriate to use maturity to describe how he feels about Lynch at this time ~lightnovelpub.net~.

"Okay, I'll book a restaurant first..."

"No problem, see you then."

"Then I won't disturb you, Mr. Lynch, goodbye."

"goodbye!"

...

Lynch was a little surprised when he hung up the phone. He then called Mr. Truman and explained the matter briefly.

It is not often that senators take the initiative to bow their heads. As we all know, senators and governors are people who dare to confront the president. Unless there is real power to make them aware of the danger, they will not take the initiative to compromise.

Soon Lynch got the answer from Mr. Truman, and the Ministry of Defense placed an additional order for 400 aircrafts, as well as additional research orders.

They saw the future from the video and desperately want to hold the future in their hands!
