While Xiao Yunhai and Christie were discussing matters, Lyle, who was in high spirits, was chatting with his team in the president's office in the White House.
Secretary Al knocked on the door and walked in, saying, "Mr. President, Mr. Simon is here."
When Lyle heard this, he immediately stood up and said, "Invite him in. No, I'll go out myself. "
Stanley Simon walked in and said with a chuckle, "There's no need to trouble Mr. President. I can come in myself."
Lyle took two steps forward and shook Stanley Simon's hand, saying, "Mr. Simon, I didn't expect you to come here tonight. Al, go and make a cup of coffee. "
Stanley Simon shook his head and said, "Mr. President, I'm looking for you because I have something important to talk to you about. You see … "
Lyle said, "Okay. Colleagues, you've been tired today. Go back and rest. Tomorrow, our government work will officially begin. "
Everyone agreed and left.
After Al closed the door, only Lyle and Stanley were left in the office.
"Teacher, I wonder why you're looking for me?" Lyle asked.
No one would have thought that Lyle was Stanley's student.
Stanley said, "Raúl, I'm very happy that you can sit on the throne of the president. But becoming the president doesn't mean that you can realize your political ambitions. "
Lyle didn't understand Stanley's words and asked in confusion, "Teacher, what do you mean?"
Stanley waved his hand and said, "Lyle, let me ask you something. Who do you think is the biggest threat to you in America today?"
Lyle was shocked and his expression became serious. After thinking for a long time, he said, "Teacher, are you talking about the Bessey family and the Anderson family?"
Stanley's face showed a smile and said with praise, "You can think of this, which means that your political wisdom is much stronger than before. The greatest enemy of the past presidents of the United States of America was never the ancient civilization of Huaxia, nor were they the opposing political parties. Instead, it was the two powerful families. Today, I saw Xiao Yunhai and chatted with him for a long time. He asked me for a favor, hoping that I can help him get the qualifications to set up a security company. At first, I refused without even thinking about it. But he said that someone wanted him to pay three hundred billion USD to get the permit. You should know what this means, right? "
Lyle's expression was cold, and his face was ugly to the extreme. "I know. The underlying meaning of this sentence is that he controls the entire Senate. "
In the United States of America, the Senate would vote on any major national issues. Even the president's power was restricted by it.
Now that Stanley told him that someone could control the Senate, one could imagine how serious the consequences would be.
Stanley didn't say anything. He just quietly watched Lyle's expression.
He knew how powerful his student was, and he also knew his ambitions. Adams could tolerate the overstepping of the boundaries of the two families, but for Lyle, who wanted to be the best president in the United States, it was absolutely unacceptable.
As expected, Lyle raised his head. His gaze was firm as he said in a sonorous voice, "Teacher, I don't want to be a puppet."
He stood up and looked at the moonlight outside the window. "I've dreamed of being the president of the United States since I was a child. I want to let the poor people live a better life. I want to make the slums of the United States disappear completely. I've worked hard for decades, and it wasn't easy for me to sit on the president's seat. I'm not willing to be controlled by others. "
Stanley smiled and said with a gratified expression, "Lyle, although I've only taught you for half a year, I have to admit that you're the best student I've ever taught. I'm very happy that the United States can be handed over to you. Adams has been the president for four years. To be honest, his political achievements are very average, and his temperament is too weak. Not only did he not suppress the two families, he even helped the Bexi Family to suppress the Anderson Family. Hehe, it's simply stupid. However, the other party is too powerful. Moving these two mountains is definitely not something that can be done in a day. "
Lyle nodded. His eyes were full of wisdom as he said, "Teacher, I'm really touched that you came to tell me these things tonight. In fact, I've been thinking about the problem of the two families. Their influence on the United States is too great, especially the military. However, we have the biggest advantage, and that is the feud between the Bexi Family and the Anderson Family. I'm going to support the Anderson Family and suppress the Bexi Family. "
Simon frowned and said, "If the Bexi Family is defeated, then the United States will become the Anderson Family's world. Although the Anderson Family supports you now, don't forget that they're capitalists. Once they have the chance to seize power, they'll kick you out at any time. "
Lyle smiled and said, "Then think of a way to make the Bexi Family and the Anderson Family fight each other. Even if the Anderson Family wins, it'll be a pyrrhic victory, and we'll be able to reap the benefits."
Simon said, "That depends on your wisdom. The biggest advantage of the Bexi Family and the Anderson Family is firearms. You can support some other firearms companies during this time and let them develop and grow. "
Lyle said, "There's also Mr. Xiao. I think he's a very good vanguard. "
Simon chuckled and said, "You're thinking the same thing as me. All of Mr. Xiao's businesses are developing vigorously, and the market value is increasing every day. You can rest assured that you'll help him and let him grow stronger, and then fight against the two families. He's different from the Bexi Family and the Anderson Family. No matter what he achieves, he'll always be an outsider to the United States. He won't be accepted by the Americans, and the threat he poses to you is almost negligible. "
Lyle nodded and said, "That's why I'll help him greatly in the future. Right, didn't he want to set up a security company? We'll give him a permit. Doesn't he have an oil and gas company? I heard that it's about to surpass the Bexi Family's TMC. In the future, we can give all the resources found in the United States to him and let him fight with the Bexi Family. As for firearms, other than supporting other firearms companies, I'm going to secretly increase the strength of the Bexi Family and suppress the stronger Anderson Family, and provoke an all-out war between them. Teacher, what do you think? "
Stanley smiled and said, "Lyle, your general plan is correct. As the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court, I'm going to retire in four years. However, in these four years, I'll do my best to help you. I hope to see you become the best president of the United States. "
Lyle said with a determined expression, "Teacher, I definitely will."
No one knew that this secret conversation between Stanley and Lyle had completely opened a new page in the history of the United States.
Xiao Yunhai had since become Lyle's main target of support, and he had benefited immensely. He had become a pawn in the fight against the two families.
