Blackstone Code

Chapter 1679 Action and Work

The truce will soon be over.

Spring sowing doesn't actually take up much of your time.

There are only two types of people who invest in farms in the Commonwealth. One is the real farmers. They may have been managing the land under their feet for generations, large pieces of land!

Federal law stipulates that the land reclaimed by anyone is owned by the reclaimer, and no additional fees are required.

But if these lands cannot be cultivated in time, they will become vacant agricultural land again.

Yes, its ownership will change.

If the farmer wanted to plant the land, he would have to pay.

Because it's not a wasteland anymore!

There are countless wastelands in the Commonwealth, and for farmers who really want to find their fortune in agriculture, mechanized farming is the most cost-effective method!

This is not... In the beginning, they could let some natives work for them under their guns for free.

Now that the labor cost of the Federation is sky high, it is obvious that buying some cheap machinery is more suitable for large-scale farming than hiring a large group of workers.

Another type of agriculture and animal husbandry is a large-scale economy.

For example, the seven major banks, such as the federal hedge funds, they actually like to invest in agriculture.

And in recent years, due to the surge in the federal population, there is a shortage of food, and the prospects of agriculture are optimistic. At the same time, the prices of agricultural products are also rising slowly.

Probably most people's change in the price of agricultural products is just from a dollar to a ten or a fifteen cents.

It seems...not much.

At least housewives may spend a buck or two more every time they buy groceries than they used to?

But mind you, this is an equally hugely productive industry, and every ton of output can be enough to make it a sizable and staggering income.

Not to mention the increase of more than 5%, which is already more stable and more profitable than investing in finance!

When these institutions invest in agriculture and animal husbandry, they are better at controlling costs and prefer to use agricultural machinery.

Therefore, in the Commonwealth, except for those farmers whose land is not large and cannot be regarded as real farmers, the spring planting of other farmlands has been completed very early.

The fire of war will also be rekindled!

Before that, it's obviously important to do everything that needs to be done.

There are still two or three days before the signing of the contract. In the hotel, after checking by the accompanying staff to ensure that there is no eavesdropping device, the eldest prince sat on the sofa.

There was no frivolity on his face that had shown him all this time.

He went around in many places in the Federation, and tried to bring back some "documents", but all failed.

He deliberately wore new leather boots with floppy soles to some steel mills, and also deliberately walked around the workshop, if not for the agents of the Federation who asked for his shoes to be polished when he left.

He may have brought back many metal samples.

The federal people's precautions against him were in place, and he failed to get what he wanted after many attempts. The more frivolous he behaved, the more serious the attitude of those people.

So much so that he doesn't have a good chance to turn himself into a frivolous bastard.

It is not many days before returning to the country, and the first prince is too lazy to continue to pretend.

"We are running out of time. If you can't complete the mission within five days, this mission will fail forever."

"We won't have a second chance to come here so easily and stay here for so long!"

The eldest prince looked at some people standing in the living room. In addition to negotiating, they also had a task to come to the Federation this time.

That is to find a way to get their research materials from the flight institute, and if they can't get it, find a way to tie up an expert or two.

They have prepared a lot of plans for this. During this time, the eldest prince has been going around and buying a lot of things.

These things are going to be packed and sent back to the Pontgio Empire with him. They plan to put the intelligence and even the researchers directly in the container.

These things are the personal belongings of the eldest prince, enjoying diplomatic immunity, and at the same time, they can not be inspected.

After all, there are a lot of privacy items involved. According to the rules of international diplomacy, diplomats have the right to refuse inspection of these items.

It was not long before leaving the Federation, and as a result, these people still did not get the aircraft information that the empire needed most, which made the eldest prince somewhat dissatisfied.

The officer in charge bowed his head, first acknowledging the mistake, then proceeding to explain why their operation had not been successful.

"...We found that Blackstone Aviation and Flight Research Institute are not a company. The Flight Research Institute is responsible for research and improvement of aircraft, and Blackstone Aviation is responsible for assembly."

"Within five kilometers around the flight institute, it is regarded as a military forbidden area. There are special people patrolling all day, and there are many hunting dogs."

"There's no way we can get in there and find what we need without alerting anyone."

"As for those experts, scientists, they also live in the base, and these people rarely leave the laboratory, it is difficult for us to catch them and take them away when they are not prepared."

"As for Blackstone...all aircraft parts are licensed to dozens of companies that supply Blackstone with a certain component."

"Their only job is to put these parts and assemblies together, and we tried to infiltrate but couldn't find anything of value..."

The most special thing about the assembly line is this. Pre-job training can let almost all the workers on the assembly line know what they are going to do, but they will not know what others are going to do, and they are unwilling to understand.

It's enough for them to just get their process right.

This also led to the spy being unable to find a complete set of design drawings, many of which were assembly schematics, only the assembly method of parts or components, and no more complete ones.

These things will end up being assembled into a plane, but getting blueprints or something from here... it's hard.

It was impossible for them to steal a few planes and go back, so it didn't happen.

Listening to the report of his subordinates, the first prince also seemed a little dissatisfied. Before coming, he thought it might be a little difficult, but in the end he could overcome the difficulties and complete it.

What I didn't expect was that it was really difficult, and I couldn't overcome these difficulties myself.

"Don't they have any omissions?" The eldest prince's voice was clearly dissatisfied.

At this time, the officer in charge of this mission was also very embarrassed. Just when he was about to admit the failure they were bound to encounter, he suddenly thought of something.

"His Royal Highness, although we can't get the design drawings and research and development materials, and we can't get in touch with those scientists, there is another person who knows aircraft very well, and we may get in touch."

His Highness the First Prince's expression improved a little, "You should say it earlier, don't play such a trick next time, it can't show how smart or important you are at all, it will only make me want to punish you!"

The officer bowed his head and said yes.

"Now, say what you think!"

The officer sorted out his thoughts, confirmed that his plan was possible, and said softly, "Lynch is known as the father of the Air Force, and from the materials we have collected, it is reflected that he also played a key role in the development of the aircraft. , and participate in the process of research and development.”

"He may not only have the latest technology in aircraft, but he is also the boss of Blackstone Aviation. If we catch him, maybe we will have a way to get what we want!"

These news can be inquired everywhere, the first prince did not doubt its authenticity, and he also believed that his subordinates would not dare to deceive him.

He pondered for a while, and felt that this matter was indeed possible, and immediately made a decision, "I think your idea is very good, we are running out of time, and immediately implement it..."

"I don't want to know how you do it, I just want to make sure that when I leave here, there is something we need in the container on the ship!"

Waving his subordinates back, the eldest prince walked to the hotel's floor-to-ceiling glass curtain wall with a wine glass.

Under the setting sun, the most beautiful side of the entire Bu Paine was displayed in front of him. He looked at this rich country, and his eyes were gradually occupied by greed...

During this period of time, Lynch was only working normally, without a truce. In fact, not much has changed for him.

His main energy is now on the operation of Blackstone Bank. Since the bank has just received a large order since its establishment, Lynch is considering whether to make a sum of money in the listing of Blackstone Bank first!

There are many small business owners who are terrified of going public.

This perception cannot be wrong.

This is indeed the case for enterprises that do not have sufficient means and whose industries lack monopoly or technology.

Just like those entrepreneurial enterprises in the incubation park, the investment in the light of tomorrow is not much, but for them, a lot of funds have been obtained and a lot of shares have been obtained.

They want to kick the founder out of the company without even having a shareholders meeting!

So for most small business founders ~www.readwn.com~ going public is fraught with risk.

But for those "financial tycoons" who are proficient in all kinds of financial means and can play a lot of people with applause without spending a penny, going public is another feeling.

Putting other people's money into their own pockets, throwing away the mess and reborn from ashes, this is their way of playing.

They are not afraid of the company going public, but they are afraid that the company cannot go public!

Vera also gradually began to adapt to the position of president of the head office of Blackstone Bank. Of course, the chairman of the board of directors is still Lynch.

As soon as the bank was established, the first people who came to borrow money were not those companies that needed capital circulation, or entrepreneurs with dreams, but... peers!

A large number of private banks have sent loan requests to Blackstone Bank, ranging from hundreds of thousands to tens of millions or even hundreds of millions.

For these small private banks, they are also short of money, very short!
