Near the end, at this time, Mode Ferri chose to go to the bathroom and touch up his makeup a little.

Things like lipstick.

Be aware when attending an evening meeting.

Either they don't eat anything, don't even go to the bathroom, and wear a dress that needs help to take off.

Or draw simple makeup, such as not wearing lipstick or something.

After all, when eating, or clinking glasses during ceremonies, you may leave some marks on the endgame.

This is a very unsightly thing.

When the banquet ended, it was a different story.

Wait until Jadeferri leaves.

At this time, Yorkemieu could no longer hold back the confusion in his heart.

He asked in a low voice towards Chen Xu.

"Matthew, do you have any ideas? How did you mention the matter of Wapiti to Desmond? "

This is also what Yoclemieu does not understand a little.

Chen Xu mentioned it at the gambling table before, and it seemed like he deliberately let Desmond know about it.

But the point is that Desmond is just working with them 07, just ready to do business on cottage clothing.

And even if you want to let someone else in, it can't be Desmond.

After all, the other party is not an oil merchant, and his resources and channels do not have the slightest advantage for his side.

But now he told Desmond about Wapiti.

The other party may reveal the news in exchange for some favorable conditions for themselves.

As a capitalist, there is no such thing as righteousness.

Some are just communities of interest.

Yorke-Lemieux had no doubt about this.

Listening to Yorklemie's words, Chen Xu smiled: "Actually, this is my purpose. "

"I don't understand." Yoclemieux shook his head and spoke his mind directly.

"Have you read today's paper?" Chen Xu did not answer directly, but asked a question instead.

"Of course." Yorklemie nodded.

For them businessmen, reading the newspaper can be said to be a daily necessity.

This helps them understand some of the big things in various parts of the Federation.

Then discover some hidden business opportunities.

Of course, this is not something that everyone can see through.

Because sometimes what appears in the newspaper is only published to divert attention, or to cover up certain news.

At this time, you need to screen the information yourself.

Analyze that those are important information.

And what are the useless information that can be directly skimmed.

Apparently Joclemieux didn't see what was behind the content in today's newspapers.

But Chen Xu did not have any unhappy emotions.

Sometimes partners aren't that smart, and that's a good thing.

"Professor Bell is preparing to conduct an experiment on electric chairs in St. Denis." Chen Xu smiled and said.

"I know about this, Kasika Prison is looking for a new way to replace hanging."

"After all, many federal citizens thought that hanging was immoral, and it was easy for them to think of the Middle Ages."

"And the economy is sluggish, and federal laws have become flexible." Yorklemie nodded.

The consequences of the economic downturn are a cascade of consequences.

For example, crime.

Generally, if it is a crime such as stealing.

The elasticity of its penalty is very high.

Prisons where criminals can squat for a period of time, or go to some communities for unpaid labor services. (Read violent novels, just go to Feilu Fiction Network!) ）

But in fact, some community service companies will not let a group of criminals serve in the community.

After all, their God is the dweller, not the sinner.

It's crazy to let these guys go in and out of the community freely.

So unless there is a special executive order, the last community service company will always report that the other party has done the work.

That is, such a penalty is almost equivalent to no penalty.

At the same time, for some higher-level crimes, the federal government will take very harsh measures.

For example, the death penalty.

Because whether it is a light sentence or a heavy sentence.

In order to make the prison less crowded.

After all, the economy of the Federation is constantly declining, and outside they have no jobs, no food, no place to live.

But when the crime enters the prison, but there is at least one food, and even some mild illnesses such as cold and fever, the prison will waive the cost of treatment.

It's better than they were outside.

But at the same time, for prisons, the downturn in the economy means that their orders are reduced.

Prisoners are no longer wealth capable of generating profits in large quantities, but rather a burden that requires constant expenditure.

This also makes the death penalty rate a little higher.

This is to relieve the pressure on prisons, and at the same time to make society more stable.

Listening to Yoclemieux analyzing these and what he heard from his uncle, Chen Xu just smiled and did not interrupt.

After all, these are very correct theories.

After the other party finished speaking, Chen Xu opened his mouth and said the names of the two companies.

"Professor Bell's electric chair, there is a funder behind it, they are General Electric."

General Electric.

I was slightly stunned, but Yorklemie was not an idiot after all.

At this moment he reacted.

Four words came to mind: the power dispute.

There is no doubt that this is General Electric, in order to discredit Westinghouse Electric alternating current technology.

At the same time, after being clicked on this layer by Chen Xu 053, he also thought of more things.

For example, the electrical battle has spread to the west.

For example, the most urgent must not be Westinghouse Electric now, but Cornwall, which shaped the kerosene lamp empire.

In business, the battle between the leading company and the second place is often not one of them, but the third party who is watching.

Now Cornwall's kerosene lamp empire is this third party.

It seems to be a battle between Westinghouse and GM, but in fact it is a battle between new energy and old energy.

"So we can create more value on this land of Wapiti, and the chips are heavier." Chen Xu looked at Yorkemei.

"Aren't we developing it ourselves?" Hearing Chen Xu's words, he was keenly aware of some of these points, and Yoclemieux didn't understand a little.

"We don't have to do that, we just want profits, but we don't know anything about the oil industry at the moment, and this land is very important to Cornwall."

"The more anxious he is, the more we earn."

Chen Xu did not tell Yorkemie that the oil in this field was not as much as he thought, but found another very reasonable reason.

"So you leaked the news so that Cornwall would receive it?" Yorklemie suddenly realized.

"That's right." Chen Xu nodded.
