0128 One ticket
At the end of breakfast, Ferral called Lynch, who was coming over later, and Lynch was in no hurry to leave.
About ten o'clock, Ferral hurried to Lynch's quarters.
He glanced at Catherine with some curiosity, and he greeted Catherine at Lynch's introduction, and the latter returned to the room upstairs.
Ferral didn't talk about the girl after Catherine left, this was Lynch's private life, and in the Byle Federation, respecting other people's privacy and their private lives was a very important courtesy, and he only paid a little attention to the girl.
Then he brought with him some of what Lynch wanted, some replies from the mayor.
"If the mayor of the land you want agrees, he can give you 500 acres, but you need to provide at least 1,800 jobs locally, or 3,000 jobs in the state!"
The Bailer Confederation has such criteria for the purchase of non-residential land, providing certain jobs, or completing some economic programs.
If the owner of the land fails to meet these criteria, the "offending" land in his name will be confiscated, auctioned off or re-idle.
Of course, this also includes all the real estate on the land, so most entrepreneurs, factory owners, will pay some famous designers to design a plan for themselves before enclosing the land.
Plan your own industrial scale in three different periods from short-term, medium-term to long-term, and then sign a land transfer contract with the local city hall in this way - phased transfer.
In this way, there will not be too much pressure on the factory owner and the business owner on certain issues, such as the necessary jobs and the corresponding remuneration.
Lynch didn't originally ask for 500 acres, but now that the mayor has more than doubled his plan, it means that this matter is non-negotiable.
Faced with the over-the-top plan, Lynch's reaction was decisive, "I can't solve these requirements in a short period of time." ”
Lynch's reaction was not unexpected by Ferral, 1,800 jobs, each worker gave him 200 yuan a month, and he had to pay 360,000 yuan a month just for wages, and even if Lynch could take out this money now, he would be finished next month.
"It's just a medium- to long-term goal set by the mayor, and you have two years to address this employment requirement. Ferral lowered his voice a little when he said this, "Actually, you only need to solve two-thirds of the problem, after all, you have solved two-thirds of the problem!"
That's the value and the benefits of the consultant, who knows better than Lynch where the mayor's bottom line is, and two-thirds, or 1,200 jobs, is solved.
If Lynch had hired 1,200 workers to work on the land, the mayor would not have let him out of the way, even if he couldn't meet the latter targets, because the more than 1,000 workers and the families behind them would have left the city hall without peace.
Lynch nodded thoughtfully, Ferral didn't realize that the information he had revealed had revealed some more important information, such as the current predicament of Sabin City was more serious than Lynch had imagined.
But at the same time, there was more fog in front of his eyes, he did not have more opportunities and information to clear the fog, and naturally he did not know that the severity of the situation did not come from the development of the whole society, but from the Ristian Group and their president, Mr. Neo.
After a moment's pause, Ferral said the second thing, "The mayor wants to have dinner with you on Sunday night, and you can adjust your schedule." ”
Monday to Friday is a working day, and even after work, there are often one or two social gatherings, which are unavoidable.
Saturday is a day off, but Saturday evenings are more of a "weekend", so dinner is also used.
Sunday, the "first day" of the week, is the only day the mayor can control, and he can only find a dinner time to talk to Lynch on this day, otherwise it may not be until at least two weeks later that he can find a time to have dinner with Lynch.
After Lynch nodded again, Ferral took an envelope from his bosom and handed it over.
"What is this?", Lynch flipped through the envelope, the seal was not glued, he opened it directly and took a look, there was a small card like a star film inside, and he then took it out.
It's an "expensive" looking card, with some slight metallic textures, and the strong contrast between black and bright gold gives it a bit of prestige and mystery.
It only says a time, a place, and the signatures of two people, and nothing else.
"It's an invitation card to an auction, and only with this card will you be eligible to enter the auction. Ferral's tone revealed a small, special emotion.
Lynch smiled, "What is it auctioning, second-hand goods?"
"You can say that!", Ferral did not refute, anything that is on the auction means that it is second-hand, even if it may not have been opened, but it is definitely second-hand.
This is an auction to divide the cake of Market-Guide Group, and the local properties of Market-Guide Group will be auctioned in accordance with federal law, and part of the proceeds from the auction will be used to pay huge fines, and the other part will go into the local treasury.
As for how much these assets can be auctioned in the end, it is completely uncontrollable market behavior, sometimes a little higher, sometimes a little lower.
After all, even a large company like Market-Guide Group has to operate through tax evasion, and perhaps some of the high-quality assets that people think are not high-quality?
Well, it's just some unimportant questions, the important question is that Lynch is going to participate in this auction, but he doesn't have the qualifications to raise his cards.
Ferral's meaning is to let him first blend in and feel the cruelty, coldness, bloodshed and madness of the upper class, and let him feel the most real side of this society.
Ferral is a good person, he feels that Lynch needs to feel this atmosphere, in his opinion, Lynch may be very "magical", but after all, he is too thin, and his background does not give him the opportunity to contact the real side of this society.
Not being exposed to this side is equivalent to living in a less real world, which does not help him develop and grow.
Only by making him realize the cruelty and cruelty in this will he become more cautious and will also make him more mature.
Before the wolf is injured, it will regard the attack from its own kind as a kind of play, and only when it is injured will it understand that sometimes "playing" is also fatal, and it can also arouse the wolf's ferocity.
Lynch raised his eyebrows, keeping the card in a safe place, and never let others feel disappointed or offended by kindness.
It wasn't long after all that Ferral left, and lately they had been busy, and the attitude of Mr. Neo, the president of Ristoan, had made the town hall and the mayor passive, and the mayor had no intention of compromising.
Once the two sides split and the Ristoan group evacuated the city of Sabine, the problems he left behind must be resolved, otherwise it will become a catastrophe, which concerns the lives of tens of thousands of families!
In fact, neither the mayor himself nor the president of the Ristoan Group, Mr. Neo, could have predicted that the situation would deteriorate to this point.
The mutual intransigence of both sides has created a basis that they have no way to compromise, in other words, no one can bow their heads first, this is no longer a small problem, and one person can make a step and forget it.
If the mayor chooses to concede, he can indeed keep the Ristoan clique, but he will also lose his political life.
Mr. Neo, the president, can also make concessions, but his concessions will make him lose his position as president, and it is even possible that the board of directors will activate the equity recovery mechanism and take away his shares.
This is no longer a farce tossed for the distribution of benefits, this has become a show of power, and someone must surrender!
Judging by the current situation, the mayor is clearly reluctant to bow to the Ristoan group, and he does not see his future limited to the title of "mayor".
He is unwilling to bow his head, and it is impossible for Mr. Neo and the Ristoan Group to take the initiative to compromise, and in the wild world, giving in is not a virtue, but a sign of weakness.
After seeing Ferral's departure with a serious expression, Catherine in Lynch's room called and asked her to come down.
In some large houses, there will be a telephone in each room, and in order to avoid disturbing each other when they are used at the same time, there will be a semi-automatic switch for such large houses.
It's not as complicated as people think, each phone has a separate number, but they can be connected directly from the switch to other phones in the same segment by dialing a "semicolon", so as to achieve short dialing.
"Finished talking?", Catherine changed her clothes and came down, she didn't see the man who looked very powerful just now.
A man she was familiar with to her bones suddenly became very unfamiliar in some aspects, which actually felt quite fresh.
Lynch nodded in response, then said, "Remember what we said last night?", the girl nodded, and Lynch continued, "Do you have any goals?"
"For example, what major do you want to attend, or do you have your dream university?", he said, walking towards the entrance, "Let's go and fill our stomachs first, and then go to the university you want to go to!"
He stood in the doorway, looking at Catherine, and the girl couldn't help but laugh, "Is this the life of high society?"
Looking at some doubts in Lynch's eyes, the girl smiled and said, "Spend every day eating and chatting?"
Lynch was stunned for a moment, and then expressed his affirmation of the girl's point of view, "I'm glad you have a whole new understanding of my current life!"
