Blackstone Code

Popular recommendation:

"The core of Prohibition is only for domestic production and transportation issues. If you want to avoid it, it is not impossible."

Sitting on the sofa, Lynch shook the wine glass, and the golden liquid in the glass was flowing back and forth between the ice cubes. He didn't pay much attention to this law when he talked about it.

There was an inexplicable fear and confusion about Prohibition throughout society, especially the working class.

Some people think that the main consumers of federal alcoholic beverages are high-end customers, those who can buy a bottle of wine for a few hundred yuan and share it without hesitation.

Then the real answer will surely confuse them about the world!

Because the real consumer groups, from the beginning to now, are the middle and lower classes of society.

Those cheap alcoholic beverages are cheap and the profit margins are a lot lower than high-end ones, but they're big!

The same surprising and even shocking attempt, the largest annual federal consumption of alcoholic beverages comes from the workers' union!

Yes, they are the first echelon of real alcohol sales, and they are far ahead of the second!

Many brewing companies and labor unions are very good partners, and some small and medium-sized enterprises even need to rely on labor unions to survive.

Because the workers' union has the largest "drinking party" in the federation, the workers' club!

The Workers' Club offers cheap drinks and a variety of snacks, and is the main place for the working class to relax.

They can buy a glass of wine here for a buck or two, a little potato wedges or something, and have a chat with their friends.

They don't need to rush home, they are almost dizzy from drinking and flushed, and it's normal to go home after eight o'clock.

All the working class in the whole federation have consumed in the labor union, and more than one third of them have habitual consumption, and they are the core of consumption!

Then there are all kinds of cheap bars, strip bars and stuff like that.

A nine-dollar bottle of wine might only make four or five dollars, but it's sold by the ton.

Those hundreds of yuan a bottle of good wine may have a profit of 60 to 70 yuan, and it can sell a thousand bottles a day in the whole country, even if it is a very good result.

In addition, at the top and the top of the federal society, some people are loyal to their own wine, so the real market is still those cheap wine.

Now the workers' union is no longer allowed to sell alcohol. This is a crit for the workers who have developed the practice of "drinking a drink after get off work and then going home"!

They marched, demonstrated, and the effect was not very good.

The federal government has given people a transition to adapt without closing the gap.

Sales require a license, and secondly, the drinks sold cannot come from China.

This is the result of discussions between Mr. Trueman and his staff, and they can't do it one-size-fits-all without giving the working class any alcoholic beverages, which is obviously impossible.

But they were able to control the process from drinking every day, to a little less, then occasionally, to not drinking at the end.

The practice is also very simple, increase the sales price of alcohol, and at the same time include alcoholic beverages in the special tax list.

With high taxes and high prices, in order to seek profits, operators could buy a large glass of beer for only one dollar in the past, but now it costs two or three yuan or more.

Over time, the expensive price that they can't afford will naturally make them quit the habit of drinking.

The Brothers Grimm came to see Lynch as soon as the Prohibition was promulgated. The high profits of alcohol and beverages are also an important source of funds for all gangs and organizations.

The Federation is a relatively stable society, and the funds of gangs cannot always come from wars between gangs or other vicious crimes, such as kidnapping rich people or something.

This kind of thing may be okay to do occasionally, but it can't always happen, so most gangs will use those high-profit illegal but not completely criminal methods to obtain operating funds.

Like organizing call girls, secretly transporting some contraband to the country, selling black guns and the like.

It used to be legal to sell alcohol, but now it's illegal too, which means it's more profitable!

The Brothers Grimm are already on the road to whitewashing. They want to ask Lynch about this business, how to do it in the future, and if there is a way to get a license.

Although the two young people have their own advantages and abilities, they do not have a thorough understanding of the world.

Lynch took a sip of the fine wine in his glass, "We have to split this matter into two parts, the first part is the legal part, that is, import and transportation from abroad."

"The Prohibition Order only does not allow domestic winemaking to continue, but it does not prohibit us from importing it from abroad. These wines from abroad can be imported normally, and if you have a tax payment slip, they can also be transported normally."

"The second part is the illegal part, and it's also the part about the license that you just mentioned."

"You can legally import, transport, and store these imported wines, but I suggest you, if you want to make more profits, either sell them to others, or sell them 'secretly'!"

Lynch puts a little emphasis on the word "secretly" to make it very...different!

Brothers Noel and Fern looked at each other, and then directly showed their cards, "Mr. Lynch, we don't quite understand."

With a smile, Lynch stretched out an index finger with the hand holding the wine glass and pointed at them, "It's very simple, the legal sales of alcohol will be subject to high taxes, initially above 60%, and the highest will not be higher than 6%. ninety."

"Once the special tax rate is raised, the more you sell, the less money you actually make!"

"Because we sell these alcoholic beverages, we need to provide the corresponding environment and service to customers. You can't let those people drink beer by the roadside with two or three dollars a glass."

"The cost of the site, the manpower to maintain the order of the site, the normal expenses of various water and electricity, the cost of transportation and storage..."

He spread his hands, "If the tax rate is too high, you will not actually have much profit, and may even lose money."

"Instead, it's illegal to sell these drinks..."

Lynch took another sip of his wine glass, "I'm not saying I want you to evade taxes, I just remind you that selling to the terminal crowd is the stupidest way, understand?"

"And I think in the next one to two years, it's possible that the federal government will also impose higher tariffs on imported alcohol."

Of course, this is an inevitable result, and if Mr Truman and his cabinet are to see Prohibition really taking effect, controlling the influx of alcohol is also a must.

The large-scale import of low-cost and high-profit commodities such as alcohol and beverages will cause the federal wealth to flow out. Now it is only for policy transition and has not been controlled for the time being.

But he believes that once the policy is implemented, the supporting content will be improved immediately.

The federal government is always like this, first carefully so that people don't feel the pain of beheading, they may make a scene because the knife holder is not comfortable on the head.

When they find it useless after a lot of trouble, and they start to get used to the knife around their neck, the federal government will give them a hit.

His head has been chopped off, and naturally he will not shout.

Looking at the two idiots, Lynch could only explain to them more deeply, why a piece of candy containing alcohol is candy, but a small glass of wine is an alcoholic beverage.

If you can drill the legal loopholes, you should first drill the legal loopholes. If you can't, you should be a wholesaler, keep the profits for yourself, and pass the risk on to others!

After sending off the two ignorant brothers, the various programs on the TV that Lynch turned on were all about content related to the Prohibition Order.

The federal government is wielding its power to put the media on their side.

This is rare in the Commonwealth, because the Commonwealth is an equal and free country, where everyone has the right to express their ideas in any occasion, which is a fundamental right granted to them by the Charter.

Therefore, there are often some media who question the decision of the federal government, and even go against them!

But now, such a scene is hard to see.

Mr. Truman, a military-backed wartime president, now holds so much power that he can shut down any media at any time on the grounds of "endangering national security."

So all the mainstream, non-mainstream ~www.readwn.com~ dare not contradict the policies of the federal government - mainly the policies issued and implemented after Mr. Truman took office, those before him, such as those involving three Major reforms are not included here.

People always feel that once Prohibition is issued, the federal government will not be able to buy alcohol.

But they don't understand that the middle and upper classes of the federal society have never been short of drinks, nor are they short of money to buy high-priced drinks.

And the bottom market of the Federation will be divided up by various criminal groups, there is no shortage of them!

Even people can taste more unique wines!

With enough interest, maybe some families will start brewing moonshine because it's **** money!

Soon, news from the front lines of the Nagalil battlefield pulled people's attention a little.

As the armor-piercing projectiles provided by the Flight Research Institute and Ankerk Industries proved to be effective in actual combat, the Army Headquarters and Air Force Headquarters of the Federal Nagalil Theater launched a new round of fierce offensives.

Three cities occupied by Pongio were caught by surprise by the sudden appearance of the Union Army, and one of them had been taken back.

The Army General Command said they would fully reclaim central Nagalil by the end of this year and further reduce the control of the Pengio armed group.

As if in response, the Penggio military group began to gather military forces at a later position, seeing a large-scale battle or even a battle about to break out!

Precisely at this time, in order to gather superior military forces against the onslaught of the Federals, the Pengio military group mobilized some troops from other regions, giving the Federal Army a chance.

A big battle called "Sword of Dawn" also kicked off...
