Chapter 1142: Chapter 1140: Something Beautiful

In a primary school, the teacher drew a rabbit on the blackboard and asked the students for their thoughts.

Some students said the rabbit was cute, others said the rabbit needed to eat grass, and some thought of fables and fairy tales.

These are all normal, and they also reveal a truth of the world, which is the complexity of human thought.

The same thing can be seen from different perspectives, as human thought is complex to the extent that it amazes humans themselves, yet this is not the most special aspect.

Some suggested roasting the rabbit to eat it, while others proposed using the rabbit for dissection.

None of this is surprising, as human nature is so complex. Just like when some people propose normal ideas, others propose abnormal ones.

"Why... Mr. President, I mean, why can’t we join them and become leaders of these people?"

The speaker appeared somewhat chubby, and his clothes were slightly small, causing the buttons of his suit to be very tight!

The Federation is a nation that pursues freedom and comfort. Here, people do not wear particularly tight formal suits that make themselves look sharp and show off their figures. Their formal suits appear loose.

If you think this is ill-fitting, then you are mistaken. The people of the Federation are indeed like this, allowing great laxity in comfort and self-expression.

This gentleman is definitely not a wealthy individual because wealthy people, such as Lynch, update their measurements every quarter and order new clothes. He would never wear ill-fitting clothes to formal occasions, which would only be a disgrace.

Almost all wealthy people adhere to these rules, and this gentleman is likely an academic expert or scholar. Their wealth doesn’t support them changing several suits each quarter, so they wear somewhat ill-fitting clothes to attend this important meeting.

He has done his best, so nobody would think he is... inappropriate.

At this moment, he looked at the President, expressing his inner confusion with a face full of perplexity, "We keep discussing issues of confrontation, Mr. President, ladies and gentlemen, why do we always have to appear so aggressive?"

"We can have more harmonious interaction with the international community. We don’t necessarily need opposition and conflict; we can integrate."

"If we also become a member of the Silver Alliance and occupy a more important position, then the troubles you all foresee now will become the conveniences we will have."

"We should try to solve problems from multiple perspectives. There are many ways to solve a problem, not just one being good or right."

His words triggered some reflection among people. Indeed, people have always treated the Silver Alliance and Silver Currency as enemies, which was initially guided by the President.

But now someone has reflected on this relationship. Perhaps cooperation can bring more benefits, and everything would be within everyone’s acceptance range.

This is... great!

The President nodded, "This is also a great idea; I will consider it!"

He seemed very fond of this idea, which brought a somewhat proud smile to the face of the chubby scholar. He slightly bowed, "It is my honor to provide problem-solving ideas for you and the Federation, Mr. President!"

"Please sit!" the President responded with a smile, then looked at others, "Any other thoughts...?"

The meeting lasted over an hour. After it ended, Mr. Truman and Lynch walked out of the President’s Mansion together, sat in a car in the parking lot, and only after other cars left did they get up and return to the President’s Mansion.

In the office, there were only the three of them. The President sat at the edge of the sofa and poured some coffee for the two of them from a coffee pot.

Then he asked, "What do you think of the idea of integration?"

He is not such an iron-blooded radical "radical"; he belongs to the conservative faction among radicals, advocating for appropriate or gradual changes, and has a more traditional attitude towards war.

In non-necessary times, it is best not to actively initiate or intervene in any war.

From his perspective, compared to confrontation, integration actually better meets his expectations for this matter.

If all the problems that trouble him can be resolved without causing troubles and conflicts, that would be even better.

Lynch looked at Mr. Truman, who seemed to focus all his attention on savoring the coffee.

He could only put down his coffee cup and look at the President, who was sitting less than three meters away from him.

This feeling is magical. Perhaps citizens are about two to three meters away from the television while sitting on the couch in the living room, but clearly, Lynch has the edge.

At least he can communicate with this President, while the audience cannot.

"If you give up the title of the president who becomes the world’s most powerful nation, and you do not intend to have your biography included in the history textbooks of middle schools, then you can do this."

The President was slightly taken aback, "Are you saying this choice is terrible?"

Lynch nodded, "Extremely terrible. I also understand why the gentleman who proposed this idea was so embarrassed..."

He was referring to the other’s ill-fitting attire, indirectly indicating his poverty.

Mr. Truman couldn’t help but laugh as he put the coffee cup back on the coffee table, "You’re truly harsh!"

Lynch, however, laughed heartily, "I’m just speaking the truth!"

The President also understood what they were referring to, with a relaxed expression. He realized that things were still under control, otherwise, these two wouldn’t be joking about someone’s financial situation.

Of course, he also agreed with Mr. Truman’s comment that it was indeed a bit harsh.

One should not think that just because one is wealthy, others are poor...

Even the President couldn’t help but laugh, "Alright, gentlemen, let’s discuss something we care about."

"Lynch, why do you say this choice is terrible?"

Lynch didn’t even need to think before answering, "Because we will be hijacked, Mr. President,"

"When this loose alliance has many member nations, our will gets weakened."

"I am quite confident that the Silver Alliance will adopt a Congress-like system to decide most matters through voting."

"We are not advantageous in this aspect. We shouldn’t put ourselves in a cage to negotiate with those animals in that cage."

"They have abundant experience being caged, whereas we do not. We would be restrained, or even lose many interests."

Mr. Truman then added, "Mr. President, a lion is never the match of a pack of hyenas!"

The Federation has broadcasted similar documentaries.

In the continuous progress of human civilization, people are always using various cruel methods to prove that humans are the rulers of nature.

Although we often get beaten by nature, humans will never admit it, nor will they surrender, only to keep challenging.

Things like making species from completely different environments fight each other have long been common occurrences.

Before letting a lion face hyenas, people always thought the lion would easily deal with all the hyenas.

Until the lion became food, people still found it hard to believe the miracle they just witnessed.

Mr. Truman’s explanation immediately made the President realize the problem at hand.

The Federation is one of the targets for which they unite and confront!

"Do we really have to start a war?" After a silence, the President couldn’t help but ask. He doesn’t quite like the idea of taking the initiative to start a war externally.

This gives him a very frightening feeling, fearing he might become a sinner—this thought primarily stems from a lack of confidence in war.

If it were Emperor Gafura, they would have long been clamoring to mobilize fleets to eliminate those conspirators attempting to overthrow the status of the Fla World.

Lynch coughed, "Darkstone Security can undertake these tasks, Mr. President."

"We have rich war experience and can easily destroy the military forces of any small country."

"More importantly, this is a private company, not a declaration of war, just an order..."

After hearing this, the President felt a bit tempted. Lynch continued, "If any big problems arise, we have a professional public relations team and emergency measures to solve these troubles."

"Even if we cannot solve it, it’s my and Darkstone Security’s problem, not yours and the Federation’s problem, Mr. President!"

Mr. Truman added, "The history books won’t record a businessman as unscrupulous as you, that’s not worth it!"

The two exchanged glances, everything in their exchange of looks.

The President is easily persuaded, which is Mr. Truman’s understanding of him. These conversations between the two here also let the President gradually lean toward them.

This can be a drawback or a merit, as long as there are people like Lynch, Mr. Truman around him, then his character is his advantage.

If he is surrounded by idiots, selfish people, then this is his drawback!

The President pursed his lips, "I will seriously consider your proposal, can you explain further about the differences in these issues? I might make a..."

He had some small actions with his hands, and Lynch and Mr. Truman immediately understood.

He might still need to privately communicate with the Progress Party Committee Chair and others, including some Senators.

The President is indeed the largest public politician in the Federation, but in reality... is not.

There are still many who can easily suppress them!

Then Lynch explained in detail the value of the international settlement currency and the method of extracting global wealth through it.

The play at earning all profits while distributing the losses made the President nearly lose his ability to think, and his breath became a bit rapid, realizing that he had found a method to garner support for his reelection!

We will reap the world’s wealth!

Just this slogan would be enough to drive the capitalists and politicians mad with support for his reelection.

Even if a war could break out towards the end of his term, he might become the longest-serving president in the history of the Federation, with no one comparable!
