Act 217 A Life Without Regrets?

"Done?" Doug put down the papers in his hand and stood in front of the window, stretching.

Although this body is still very young, and the vitality of youth is surging almost all the time, but the long-term desk work still makes his body feel tired.

Nick stood behind him, looking at his changing figure and replied, "I've seen it all." ”

Doug turned around and saw a boiled egg, slightly startled, he took a sip of tea and asked, "Only one day to visit five places?"

Well...... It looks like it is. Are you just missing the hair on your head?"

"I'm ......," Nick nodded.

"Don't worry, it will grow again. Doug comforted, but after comforting him, he added, "If it doesn't grow, you'll make a fortune......

"Why?" Nick heard the first half of Doug's words, and his heart just fell, and when he heard the second half of the sentence, his heart came up again.

Doug Claydon said with a serious face, "Nick, don't you have a girlfriend?"

"No ......"

"You don't have a girlfriend, of course you won't understand. If a young woman had thick hair all over her body, would you still like her?"

"I ......"

"You may or may not. But I can make you will. Doug said before Nick said.

"Why?" asked Nick.

"That's a good question. Because I have the ability to make everyone think that women should be hairless. I can post news article after news in the newspaper, and I can promote hairlessness as beauty and refinement, hairlessness as sloppy and ugly.

In this case, is there a demand for hairlessness, and will it be possible to sell the things that make you hairless?"

"That's right. Nick admitted.

Although he only admits it honestly on the outside, there are infinite dramas in his heart.

What did he think?

He thought a lot.

He thought about how to lay it out, how to move forward, how to get results.

The American newspaper group continues to expand.

In areas where there was originally only one newspaper, a second newspaper may be in the pipeline.

Where there were no newspapers, they have either been acquired or formed.

This expansion model of the American newspaper group is not very healthy to some extent.

Because, there are already newspaper offices, and they don't even have their own newspaper machines.

When two deliberately erected opponents look at each other unpleasantly, it is already embarrassing to use a set of equipment.

What's even more embarrassing is that some newspapers don't even have their own printing presses.

You have to go to another nearby city to print your newspaper.

As a result, although the timeliness has decreased a bit.

However, these newspapers, which have filled the gap in the market, can still barely make a profit.

As for Doug Claydon himself, why would he be doing this thing?

Didn't he know that once the railroad was opened, a large number of its newspapers would go out of business?

He knew, of course he knew.

But he didn't care.

You can make today's money, you can attract today's attention.

In order to be able to make today's people indoctrinate, they can be indoctrinated with various ideas in order to seek the greater good.

That's enough!

Many people say that the capitalists are just a bunch of mercenary things. They can only see the immediate benefits, not the long-term benefits.

However, for the sake of the so-called long-term interests, the immediate interests are sacrificed. Is this the right thing to do?

Maybe it seemed to Doug in the past, but it wasn't in Doug's opinion now.

Because, to put it bluntly, long-term interests are only short-term interests in the future.

Since I can get short-term benefits now, I can also get short-term benefits in the future.

As long as I change direction quickly enough, there is no such thing as abandoning long-term interests for the sake of short-term interests.

In fact, the vast majority of capitalists do the same.

However, for various reasons, there are also many people who turn to failure.

And those who have not experienced it at all, begin to say in hindsight, you see, these capitalists, so short-sighted, for the sake of immediate interests, give up long-term interests.

Of course, the capitalists do sell their nooses to executioners.

Because it's very simple, when he sold it, he never thought that this kind of thing would be used on himself.

It's like the guns sold by the Bunsa Arms Company, and the explosives sold by Tom and Doug Chemicals.

Can't these things be used to attack Doug?

If Doug is attacked, Doug is dead.

Could it be that he personally sold the explosives that killed him and the bullets that killed him?

Be!

Yes, definitely!

But although Doug has hired several bodyguards.

But he never thought that these things would be aimed at him when he was selling them.

Is this a limitation of Doug?

No, it's not.

Because in Doug's opinion, he is no longer a creature with ordinary people.

It's like he worked hard to promote the Civil War and prop Lincoln to power.

Could it be that he expects himself to go to the front and sacrifice his life for the reunification of the North and the South of the United States?

No!

In a pig's eye!

Doug's purpose in pushing for the Civil War was simple.

First, he had to gain wartime economic privileges, such as the right to issue money without collateral.

Secondly, he wants to sell weapons. But it is certainly not enough to sell weapons only to the North, but to the South.

At a time when slaves were not counted as people and blacks were not counted as people, the population of the North was large and the population of the South was small.

However, in terms of average wealth, the South has more wealth than the North.

Therefore, both sides have their own advantages and disadvantages, and both have their own advantages.

The maximum benefit can only be obtained by selling weapons to two places at the same time.

Are arms dealers who do not sell weapons to both sides of the war considered qualified arms dealers?

No!

Not counts!

Absolutely not!

Why is that?

The reason is simple, because only in this way is the benefit maximum.

Therefore, sometimes, the other side of the war feels that the arms merchants in their opponent's camp must be "good people" and must support themselves if they actually break through the blockade and sell weapons to themselves.

But how would they know if the blockades that could be easily broken through were deliberately set up by arms dealers?

Because, after such a setup, not only can the price of the weapon be doubled, but it can also filter friendly merchants.

Doug couldn't wait for the Civil War to begin.

However, Lincoln has not yet been elected, and it will take time.

As for the current president, Doug has no intention of cooperating.

Because, people have their own interest groups.

If you go by yourself, you may pay 10,000 yuan, but you can only get ten.

Moreover, they are about to expire.

People walk coffee cool.

When the president leaves the White House, he can only rely on selling books and going out of the stage.

Most people may have a question, why is there no civil service exam in the United States?

In other words, why is the civil service exam in the United States not so crazy?

This is because the civil service exam in the United States is different from the civil service exam in other countries.

In the civil service examination of other countries, those who pass the examination really have a chance to become officials.

However, in the U.S., whether it's the federal government, or the state government, or the city government.

The core of his team is always the president, the governor, and the mayor.

The arrival of a new president, governor, or mayor represents a large number of personnel changes.

Nepotism, letting familiar people in important positions, is normal.

Some people may wonder why the government does not have problems at this time.

First of all, the government of the United States is a small government.

There are fewer things to be responsible for.

The direct impact on society is also not high.

Therefore, even if there are many problems, they may not affect ordinary people, and they have already dissipated.

Other than that, there are those who have passed the government officer exam.

They are not officials, but officials.

They are all engaged in transactional work, carrying out things that are directed.

They do not have financial power, they do not have personnel power, they only have the power to execute.

Carry out the above requirements.

Even if the above requirements are very strange, strange to a very unacceptable degree. They can do it too.

It is this dual-track system, coupled with a small government, that keeps the U.S. government functioning.

If you really want to go into politics, go for the exam.

It's better to do something else.

What is it?

It's to find a city councilor, to find a state councilor, to find a congressman. Let them give a letter of recommendation, so that they can directly work in the government department in the United States.

That's right, that's how the U.S. government is.

Therefore, when you want to write chicken soup based on the United States, you can say that a person was originally very down, but through his own efforts, he ran for the state legislature.

Does such chicken soup make sense!?

It doesn't really make much sense.

Of course, the best of these chicken soups are exactly what Doug is boiling.

Lincoln's image in the American newspaper group is comparable to that of God.

It's perfect, as if he was born to be president.

Moreover, in the propaganda again and again, Lincoln's failure was emphatically promoted.

All of this is written with great enthusiasm and is very deep in people's hearts.

But, where they didn't notice, something else was happening.

Doug Claydon, is pushing Lincoln forward.

Otherwise, no matter how good a person is, no matter how much suffering he has experienced, who knows?

In fact, if you sum up the life of any one person.

There will always be a lot of distillation.

Even, without telling lies, anyone can make a chicken soup.

For example, a serious patient with face blindness, suffering from illness, can only focus on making money, and in the end, although the illness did not improve, but because of his self-improvement, he married a beautiful wife.

And after that, because of his face blindness, he accidentally recognized his daughter-in-law by mistake.

Although he was "framed", he was finally cleared.

Isn't this a chicken soup?

For another example, there is a person who is very ugly and doesn't want to work at the general's steak, but for various reasons, he has gone through one ordeal after another, and finally became a rich man.

This rich man, when facing others, his favorite thing to say is, I really regret making so much money.

It's also inspiring, isn't it?

Perhaps, there is also the owner of a shop, in order to attract customers, even at the expense of selling men and women's clothes, and in the end he became the shop with the most customers.

Isn't this story of surviving in humiliation inspiring?

It's all very inspiring.

But.

When it is inspiring, it will not tell you. The faceblind patient, who graduated from Yale University, has alumni in all important industries across the United States, and all of them have very important positions. Therefore, no matter what he does, as long as it is not too excessive, he will not have a problem.

No one will tell you either. That short, ugly guy, his father sang for the Minister of Finance, and he was very loved. Even if he doesn't have anything, as long as he goes to those who know about the relationship, even if he doesn't do anything, he can get the money directly.

Because, those people know that even everything he does looks like a liar.

But as long as the man behind him is determined, he will definitely do it.

As for the third one who betrayed his hue.

This one is even more interesting.

Not every father can sit in a luxury carriage drawn by sixteen horses to act as an accountant for his son and calculate the company's profit and loss when the company owes several months of rent.

Of course, that's not all there is to it.

If you only see these, it's poisonous chicken soup.

Because, they can have such achievements, although their background and background, stand in a relatively large part of the reason.

However, there are always many people with the same background as them.

The fact that they can stand out also means that what they do has actually achieved results.

Compared with those excellent people at the bottom, they only have a bigger platform and a greater space for their own development.

At present, the Claydon Group has given Lincoln the most electoral resources and political donations.

The Claydon Group is even going to have a Lincoln-like pawn for the game "Monopoly".

In such a situation, once Lincoln was elected.

Doug will be able to get a lot of government positions, and then he will be able to inject his people into key positions.

Serving the Claydon Group.

In contrast, the president has a lot of nominal power.

But the restrictions he received were also greater.

And, at the same time, countless pairs of eyes looked at her.

Therefore, it is not very possible to use the position of president to seek great welfare, but it can only make some small benefits.

The vast majority of the capitalists in the United States like to make a fortune in silence.

If it's not seventy or eighty, I've done everything else in my life except for the president, and I want to be the president in order not to regret my life.

Doug really couldn't imagine what kind of capitalist would be, and for what kind of reason, he would be president.

Because, although the president is happy, the capitalists are even more happy.
