1553 Expulsion

"So...what are your plans next?"

The little earl looked at the blue sky and sighed softly, "What else can I do? I will live here from now on."

"Fortunately, we had some investment here before, and now it seems that this was the wisest choice!", the little earl said with emotion.

It was Lynch who suggested that they come to the federation to invest in the first place.

Lynch's rationale was simple, don't put all your eggs in one basket, and the federal economy was growing rapidly.

It was not affected by the war during World War I, and the industry and overall market remained intact.

Although it has experienced the Great Depression, it has now emerged from the gloom.

At that time, they even formed a group to invest, mainly to give Lin Qi face. Unexpectedly, what they thought was not a very important investment at the time has become very important now!

With these investments, they will be able to complete their industrial layout in the federation better and faster and open up opportunities for their business in the federation.

Of course, this does not mean that without these investments, they cannot conduct investment or financial operations in the federation, but it means that if they do not have the investment accumulation in the past few years, it will take a lot of time for the federal society to accept them.

They have finished some work in advance and have integrated into people's lives, and people are used to the existence of these people.

In the eyes of ordinary people, their companies and trademarks are the embodiment of their image.

Without these, people will need time to complete the process from unfamiliarity to familiarity with the emergence of new brands and new companies.

"I'm very satisfied with the return rate of the company I invested in before. Didn't you say that before?"

"The federal entertainment industry will have a long and rapid period of development, and I plan to continue to increase investment in this area."

He picked up the glass and took a sip. The company he was talking about was actually Fox Pictures.

He didn't invest much money. He only invested 500,000 fora at that time, which would only cost around 800,000 in federal Sol.

Not all of the more than 800,000 yuan was converted into shares, because there was a company agreement for the purchase and sale of those non-tradable shares.

To put it simply, tradable stocks are those stocks that can be freely bought and sold in the stock market. You only need to spend money to buy them.

Only when the shares you hold reach 3% or 5%, you need to explain it to the Financial Supervisory Commission and the company itself.

Other than that, there aren't many other restrictions.

But if you want to buy non-tradable shares, you have to enter into a potentially less-than-equal agreement with the company and its board of directors.

For example, the little earl spent 800,000 yuan to buy only 350,000 shares worth of shares, and the remaining 450,000 yuan was added to the company's market value in the form of a capital increase!

He added 450,000 "public funds" to the company. This was the condition and consideration, and then the company allowed him to purchase 35,000 non-tradable shares.

And if these non-tradable shares are to be sold in the future, they must be sold only to board members or major shareholders within the company in accordance with the agreement.

Generally speaking, the selling price should be about 20% of the stock price at the time of sale or a premium.

Only if the company's board of directors and shareholder members are unwilling to buy these shares can the holders sell them to the market.

Now the power of these stocks has been compressed, but its actual value has more than doubled. In a sense, the little count has recovered his capital and generated profits.

With such a speed of making money, even he has some ideas.

Why do capitalists, no matter what kind of people they are, eventually become obsessed with financial games?

In fact, it is very simple. The speed of industrial profitability is too slow!

A factory may only make hundreds of thousands of profits a year, but in the financial market, as long as you are lucky enough, careful enough, and not greedy, you may make hundreds of thousands or more in a few days.

People like the little Earl who only make investments but dare not engage in business management work actually play the role of financial investors.

He wanted to expand some investment.

While they were talking, the manor's butler suddenly rushed over in a hurry.

After Lin Qi apologized, he walked aside.

He doesn't live here often, but he can't let go of the management work of the manor.

Sometimes people at the bottom of society always think about beautiful and unrealistic fantasies like "It would be great if I had a big fucking house."

But if they really have a big house and it is given to them for free, they will not be able to keep it.

Not only will their lives not be happy, they will also go bankrupt because of this big house!

In addition to property taxes and various other expenses, the cost of maintaining a large house is not low.

For example, some high-end communities even have strict requirements for the type of turf within the residential area of ​​residents. You must lay turf according to the community's standards, which may cost more than ten yuan or dozens of yuan per foot.

valley embankment

It needs to be replaced at least several times a year, and there are maintenance costs!

For a large estate like Lynch, whether he is here or not, there will be a complete management team working here.

Housekeeper, cook, maid, gardener, bricklayer, carpenter, electrician...

There may be thirty or fifty people in total, and they will make this manor available for immediate use by the owner at any time, and Lynch will pay a salary of about thirty-five thousand yuan per month for this team.

"Mr. Lynch, the federal government just announced something. I think you'd better go take a look..."

Someone told the housekeeper that the Presidential Palace held a press conference, and he was keenly aware that he should tell Lynch.

After hearing this, Lynch smiled and patted the butler's arm, "Thank you very much for reminding me..."

"This is what I should do!" With a salary of two thousand yuan, he naturally has to reflect his own value. The housekeeper is not proud at all.

Lynch said hello to the young count and then returned to the room with him.

The young earl was also curious about what the federal government had to say. The situation in Amelia was indeed a bit bad recently.

A picture of the lawn in front of the Presidential Palace appeared on the TV. There was a podium with many microphones on it, and there were many reporters on the scene.

Mr. Trueman has not arrived yet, but it seems that this is not a simple news.

Lynch didn't speak, and the little earl didn't know what to say. Both of them were thinking about something and kept silent to each other.

About three minutes later Mr. Trueman appeared.

He walked to the host stage with a serious expression and said, "Good morning, ladies and gentlemen."

"Not long ago, Gaevra sent news that Pengeo and others... launched an attack on... cities in the Amelia region."

"We are currently unable to contact the defenders in this city. It is very likely that they have died."

"This also includes federal businessmen and entourage."

"For...the country and Pengeo, as well as their allies, the actions of the subject countries have brought harm and pain to the people of the federation, and also undermined the peaceful order of the world."

"After urgent discussions within the Presidential Cabinet, we have decided to comprehensively sanction Pengeo and his allies and dependent countries from an economic perspective!"

"From this moment on, the import and export trade lists of World Development Council member countries to these countries will be adjusted."

"Exports of resources, industrial products including but not limited to other categories may be completely stopped."

"In addition, people from the following countries currently present in the Federation must leave the Federation within a limited time, otherwise they will be expelled..."

Lynch raised his eyebrows slightly when he saw this. To sum up, he first took action on trade and then deported the citizens. Although the Federation did not explicitly declare war, these actions were already telling people that the day the Federation declared war on these countries, it had Not far away.

This kind of behavior that will obviously offend the state system of these countries will inevitably lead to some retaliation. If they do not retaliate, their societies will feel disappointed with their political system.

If they retaliate, then the Federation has found a suitable reason to send troops and declare war.

So far, countries with strong military capabilities on both sides have not expressed their stance to the outside world. This is actually a strategy.

Maybe the two sides still haven't adjusted their steps well, and it will take some time.

Perhaps due to other reasons, it is not suitable to directly confront each other directly. In short, this will continue for a while.

What Mr. Trueman said next no longer aroused Lynch's interest. The only thing Lynch is interested in now is those who have been evicted and what to do with the property they left behind!

The Federation is an inclusive country with a relatively peaceful and tolerant social environment. At least at the bottom of society, there are no core conflicts among the people at the bottom.

For example, in Marillo, there is racial hatred even among the lower class of society, and the people at the bottom will not live a very good life even if they are not exploited and oppressed.

None of these exist in the Federation, which has no subject nation.

There used to be, but then they got a disease and almost became extinct. Thanks to the first generation of immigrants who came from afar, they helped them and survived.

Because of their small number, backward thinking, and low abilities, they live in protected areas designated by the federal government.

This is not discrimination, this is protection!

Yes, this is the recent research result of historians. Some scholars with hundreds of thousands of annual funds have obtained these results through exploring the past history!

The outside world only made malicious speculations about the past massacres by the Federals. How could the Federals massacre locals when they were so friendly?

Their extinction was not due to massacre, but because they all contracted a terrible infectious disease!

But no matter what, without the peaceful and tolerant social order at the bottom of the federation where the dominant ethnic groups are present, everyone can integrate more together because they are all poor.

This has also become a place where people from many countries aspire to live. At least here, they don’t have to bear too many things that they don’t want to bear!

But now, because of the war, these people must make a choice!
