Ferral's apparent loyalty was somewhat shameless, as he was destined to be a politician, and Lynch was just a businessman.

It may seem unreasonable for politicians to show loyalty to businessmen, but this is precisely the most normal situation in the Federation at the moment, where capitalists capture politician after politician with money and profit.

Politicians cannot be blamed for working shamelessly for the capitalists, because from the very beginning, small people like Ferrale have built a solid relationship with the capitalists.

Lynch provided him with the necessary funds to campaign, so that his campaign posters could be plastered in every corner of Sabine, that he could appear on television frequently, that his campaign car would be longer than everyone else's, that his gifts would be better than everyone else's.

Then, as an investment, Ferral must repay Lynch's contribution in his way, or investment, such as the tax-free policy after he came to power.

He had to do it, otherwise Lynch wouldn't continue to support him, then he would lose if he didn't get support in the next election, and he didn't follow the rules of the game, and no one else would support him.

Only if he reciprocates, Lynch will continue to support him for succession, or promotion, this is the rule, and even Mr. President can't avoid the rule.

The only difference between Ferral and Mr. President is that Ferral does not have the slightest power of choice, Mr. President has some, just some.

After a brief silence in the carriage, Lynch asked a question of his concern, "Our mayor, he said that his job would not change much. ”

Probably with Lynch's support, Ferrale said it with nothing to hide.

Before the mayor became mayor, the state meant that he should go to the state house for two years, and the governor had some more personal thoughts about the people in charge here.

But the mayor withstood the pressure and found other supporters from the party to support him, and he was able to secure his position.

Now, with the Progressive Party in power and the expected changes in the future of Mr. President, the personnel structure of the Party is also changing, and some people who are closer to Mr. President have begun to gradually step onto a higher political stage, while those who are more deviated from Mr. President will definitely be bleaker.

But no matter how bleak it is, it is much better than the Conservative Party.

In the general election a year and a half later, the attitude of the governor of York is important, and the president cares a lot about his ideas, which also means that the unhappiness between him and the mayor needs to be resolved.

This has nothing to do with the fact that they partnered to deal with Ristoan before, and the so-called mayor, although not very reluctant, still expressed his willingness to accept the party's arrangement.

His greatest possibility is to mix the name of a senator in the state Senate, and a small number of them may be able to get a position in the House of Representatives.

The reason why it is low probability means that there is a possibility and basis for success, and if he has enough money and connections, a small probability event will occur.

If he doesn't, then a small probability is a small probability, a heartbreaking small probability.

It would be too bullying to force a mayor to meddle in the city's elections, and to have the previous mayor nominate his opponent, so Ferral's opportunity presented itself, but it might only be two or four years.

It is a matter of giving the citizens of the city their free will to elect their mayor, and after a while these things have passed, Ferral will have to find a reason to resign, or there will be a scandal, and then the governor's man will come to power.

It's not for nothing that people are always slamming politics for being ugly, and it's full of too many small actions that make people feel uncomfortable.

In the midst of small talk, the car soon arrived at the Sabine City Veterans Club, where Lynch's purpose was the father of Ferral's wife, who worked and where Lynch's boys had come from.

"See you again, Mr. Lynch!", Ferral's wife's father was in good spirits and red-faced, he was wearing a camouflage short-sleeved T-shirt, a pair of camouflage trousers, a camouflage baseball cap, and his face was full of smiling pleats, and he looked very kind, at least not difficult to touch.

After the two shook hands, the old man led the two of them inside, "Ferrale told me you are coming, how many lads are you going to take this time?", he glanced back at Lynch, "We have a lot of people. ”

The glory of the navy's victory did not shine on the army, and the influence and changes brought about by this naval battle still proved that the navy is the well-deserved protagonist of this era.

Unless there is a major invasion or Great Patriotic War, which requires an attack into the enemy's territory or the creation of multiple layers of ground defense on the mainland, there is no need for the participation of the army.

Looking at the next 10 years from now, there will be no war of this magnitude involving the Federation in the world, and the reduction in the size of the army is reasonable.

Of course, not all Army troops will eventually retire, and at Lynch's suggestion, the Navy will form a group of ground combat groups affiliated with the Admiralty, and the best soldiers in the Army will be selected for that year.

In addition to continuing to serve, they also have to participate in navy-related training, and this part is called the Marine and Land Stormtroopers.

A very ...... name, but the Ministry of Defense liked it, and so did the people in the Navy.

The great disarmament of the army, which had stalled, began to continue, but this time only the army was cut, and the navy was expanded.

"How many?"

"One thousand one hundred and twenty-four people!", the old man paused slightly, this number is somewhat alarming, the city of Sabin is currently unable to provide these soldiers with job opportunities, and now it can be said that the retired soldiers' club is basically raising these people.

There are more than 1,000 mouths, and they have to eat and drink every day, even if they don't eat well, according to the index of two yuan, they will have to pay tens of thousands of dollars a month for food, and the military can't bear it, let alone the local retired soldiers' clubs.

When Mr. Lynch said he was able to settle some of the job opportunities and slots, Ferral's wife's father was crazy.

He looked at Lynch expectantly, and Lynch frowned slightly, "Are they all good guys?"

"It's all good guys!", the old man repeated affirmatively.

In fact, these veterans cannot be distinguished by good or bad, they can only be said to meet the military's minimum standards for the job of "soldiers".

Lynch didn't speak, and the three of them came to the school field at the back of the club, where the young lads were exercising, or playing and chasing, very leisurely.

Seeing someone coming, a veteran with the rank of second lieutenant shouted to assemble, and in an instant everyone began to assemble quickly.

Here, in fact, there is not much difference from in the army, but it is a little freer, but it is the same to go out and exercise, and to maintain the same time and way of rest as a soldier.

One thousand one hundred and twenty-four people, each quietly looking at the three people in front of them, the power of this silence is often more terrifying than people talking, or doing something.

"This young leader of the Commonwealth, you may know, Mr. Lynch......"

Still silent, it might be embarrassing to be someone else, but Lynch won't, and he just as calmly and constantly glancing at everyone.

"Mr. Lynch is here to solve the problem of your work......

It was not until this sentence was heard that there was some very brief commotion among the soldiers, which quickly subsided.

"Can you talk to them?", Ferral's wife's father asked, and after receiving a reply from Lynch, he dragged Ferral with him.

The departure of the old man and Ferral has relaxed the atmosphere here, but it has also increased the psychological pressure of ordinary people.

"Some of you know me and some of you don't know me, and that's okay, it's okay with what we're going to talk about. ”

"I'm going to give you a job......"

Before he could finish his sentence, someone interrupted him, "Is it everyone, sir?"

Lynch noticed the guy who interjected, who looked to be about twenty-two, three, or four years old, and shook his head slightly, "Next time, please interrupt me after I'm done, this is the last time!"

Probably because of the unconvincing among the young people, the young veterans who were watching him also looked at him.

After a few seconds of eye confrontation, the young man turned his head, and he found that the pressure contained in Lynch's gaze made him a little unbearable, and he didn't admit it in his mouth, but he had already admitted defeat in his heart.

"It seems that this friend has understood what I mean, so I will answer his question by the way, prima facie, everyone has opportunities, but not everyone is suitable for this job, we have to screen them out. ”

"Go and get a working pen, a piece of paper to write your name and answers, and gather here again!"

The second lieutenant shouted to disband, and the soldiers immediately returned to their tents, and having a job was their greatest wish at the moment.

Because having a job not only means that they can solve their own problems such as food and clothing, but also reduce a lot of burden for their family, even if it is only 200 yuan a month!

Soon the people gathered again, and Lynch nodded and said, "Very good, then I'll say my questions, you don't need to tell me your new choices, write your names and answers on paper, and then I'll sift through those answers." ”

"I would like to remind you to write your answers in your truest thoughts, as it may be a matter of your safety. ”

With no objections, Lynch began his prepared question.

"The first question is, are you willing to accept the environment of working overseas, our work will stay overseas for a long time, yes or no!"

"The second question, the new job is still related to the professional knowledge you have, you will participate in some armed operations with live ammunition, some of you may be injured or even killed, are you willing to bear the consequences, yes or no!"

Speaking of this, Lynch added some additional content, "We have a well-established pension and insurance system, even if you are injured and disabled and unable to perform your previous job, we will still give you a job above the average salary for you or your family." ”

"The third question, if you are interested in becoming my employees, then we will sign an employment contract of at least five years, and some excellent employees will also get the opportunity to develop, and at the same time, they will also ask for more years of service, are you acceptable, yes, or no!"

"Fourth, if we were on a combat mission, and we had in front of us a guy who couldn't confirm the relationship between friend or foe, dressed in ordinary clothes, and was still approaching after warning him to leave, would you shoot, yes, or no!"

"Fifth question, if you are on a combat mission, and your superiors ask to attack some enemies, but they are women, old people, children, and their identities are determined, and they are likely to cause heavy casualties to you and your teammates, will you shoot, yes, or no!"
