"What about us?" Lin Zhentao and Lin Zhenming next to him asked Lin Mo in unison.
Seeing this situation, Lin Mo was two heads above the others, but he could only choke on his scalp and said with a smile: "Looking at what I said, of course no one can hide it."
Lin Zhenming heard this and educated him: "Lin Mo, we are all family members, you really shouldn't hide these things from us."
"As long as you explain the matter to us honestly, we will naturally make a decision. Just like this time, the reasons your second uncle said do exist, but there are also reasons for us to believe you."
After hearing this, Lin Mo put away the playful smile on his face and said solemnly: "Second uncle, don't worry! Next time there is such an important matter, I will tell you the truth."
This time, Lin Mo's promise was true. Lin Mo really felt that these things should not be hidden from them. Moreover, if Lin Mo wanted to hide it, he might not be able to escape the eyes of the four people.
Seeing Lin Mo's sincere attitude, the four of them gave Lin Mo a few lectures and then let him go.
Just listen to Lin Zhende speak again: "Lin Mo, on the Military Intelligence Department side, you don't have to worry, we know these things well."
"In doing this, the income is added to ten times the principal, or it can be said that it directly leverages ten times the principal."
"We had previously asked our family accountant to estimate that if the Lin family's capital is expanded tenfold, it will cause a reaction in the silver futures market. Moreover, our current principal has doubled many times, so the reaction will be even greater.
"
"I estimate that if the current scale of funds is put in, the price of silver will at least rise by dozens of percentage points, and the profit we can make will be several times."
"And if what you said happens, the price of silver should more than double, and we will be able to earn more than ten times by then."
"The funds of the Military Intelligence Agency have increased by such a multiple. They cannot refuse this large sum of wealth. At most, they will curse a few times, but they will eventually accept it."
After hearing this, Lin Mo still felt a little uneasy, but when he saw his second uncle swearing like this, he felt that there must be something inside that he didn't know, so he finally nodded.
Seeing this situation, Lin Zhende secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Okay, this matter has been settled. The funds for this participation are from the Lin family, the Military Intelligence Department, and you and your classmates.
Of those, is there anything left that needs to be replaced?”
After listening to this, Lin Mo thought for a moment and said, "Second uncle, I think we should also add my brother Lin Wenhua, who also has a lot of funds."
"Since everyone from the Military Intelligence Department is involved in the operation, naturally we cannot forget my brother. After all, he is also one of our own."
"Okay, then count it as Lin Wenhua's. We can handle this matter." Lin Zhende naturally understood what Lin Mo meant. Lin Mo wanted to drag Lin Wenhua into the ranks of those who knew the secret. Lin Zhende naturally understood
No objection.
Seeing that the two of them were almost done talking, the third uncle Lin Zhentao on the side asked: "Lin Mo, now that this matter has been resolved, we won't trouble you anymore."
"I have a question now. We are protecting the Lin family at home, but what should we do abroad? Once this matter is leaked, the pressure abroad will not be less than at home."
Lin Mo listened and said with a smile: "Third uncle, don't worry! I have already thought about how to solve this matter."
"Uncle Third, foreign countries, especially countries like the United States, are different from ours at home. Their electoral systems are real, whether it is at the federal level or the state government level."
"The best way for our family is to infiltrate them, make large investments, and tie up with a large number of companies there to form an interest alliance similar to the Baiyin Group."
"After that, we will form a lobbying team and provide support to the voters who speak for us through political donations. This way, keeping the Lin family will not be a problem."
Lin Mo's second uncle, third uncle and fourth uncle all nodded after listening. They had already studied the information sent by Lin Mo and naturally knew what Lin Mo meant. However, Lin Mo's father was confused.
After Lin Mo's second uncle explained it to Lin Mo's father, Lin's father suddenly realized it. However, Lin's father still felt that it was a bit unreliable and asked: "Lin Mo, is this feasible?"
Lin Mo saw this and explained with a smile: "Father, don't worry! The business atmosphere in the United States is very strong, to the extent that businessmen control the lifeblood of the country."
"In the past, big businessmen in the United States could even directly use their wealth to control American elections."
"Although it has not reached this level now, it is not difficult to see from the Baiyin Group that businessmen still have a huge influence on elections."
"Of course, when our family is doing this, we must pay attention to some things. First, we must maintain a certain degree of control and never go too far."
"Second, when lobbying, try not to harm the interests of Americans, or to be precise, don't harm the interests of those who stand with us, and don't let them get away."
"But this is only temporary. When we gain a foothold, if they harm our interests, they will directly kill whoever harms them. Otherwise, as outsiders, we will probably be eaten alive by these guys."
"Third, there are two parties in the United States. We cannot always support one party, lest we be betrayed by them. Anyway, as long as whoever protects our interests, we will support whoever."
After hearing this, Lin Mo's father Lin Zhensong smiled and said, "Aren't you just a fool with this view? You can go with whichever side is good for you!"
Lin Mo listened and said with a smile: "Father, it is more accurate to say that a mother is a mother if she has milk."
"Father, we do this, on the one hand, to prevent these people from taking advantage of us casually. After all, we are outsiders after all, and they cannot do things for us sincerely."
"We need to be like the swing states in the United States, swinging back and forth. In this way, even if they don't make much profit, the two sides won't dare to offend you too hard, push you into the other side's arms, and even come to please you.

"This aspect is very important. If we can't give these people this kind of image, then someone will imitate what I did in the Shanghai newspaper and use conspiracy theories to smear us, and that will be a big trouble."
"Conspiracy theory? Haha... this word is used well." As soon as Lin Mo finished speaking, Lin Zhende grabbed Lin Mo's new word and praised it.
Regarding Lin Zhende's point of view, Lin Mo was speechless. He really didn't know what he was thinking when he said it.
However, Father Lin listened carefully to Lin Mo's explanation. After thinking about it carefully, he nodded and agreed with Lin Mo's words.
Thinking of this, Lin Mo's father raised his head and asked Lin Mo: "Lin Mo, what companies should we invest in?"
Lin Mo listened, thought carefully and then said: "Father, since we think there may be a war in the future, let's invest along this line of thinking!"
"Arms factory? This...is this too bold? Can the US government allow us to invest in these things?"
Looking at his fourth uncle who was obviously shocked, Lin Mo smiled and said: "Fourth uncle, these things related to war are not just arsenals. The food, clothing, housing and transportation that soldiers fight in war are not all related to war!
Like the cannery I mentioned, it can provide soldiers with very good battlefield food."
After hearing this, Lin Zhenming suddenly realized that he did not understand these things, mainly because he had no experience in these aspects, just like the other three people who had no doubts.
However, Lin Zhentao thought for a while and couldn't figure out something, so he asked: "Lin Mo, the can you are talking about is not the kind of glass can, right?"
After hearing this, Lin Mo suddenly slapped his forehead and said, "Oh... I almost forgot about this. Third uncle, I'm talking about a kind of tin can."
"I saw an advertisement for it in an American newspaper before. This can has a long shelf life. I thought it had great potential, so I wrote it down. I didn't expect to forget to introduce it to you."
Lin Mo is talking about canned luncheon meat, which became popular during World War II with the aid of the US military and the US government.
When Father Lin heard about the tin can, he frowned. When Lin Mo finished speaking, he asked, "It must be expensive to make cans made of iron!"
Lin Mo listened and said with a smile: "Father, don't worry! That thing is just a thin layer of iron sheet. It doesn't cost much. Besides, the quality requirements for the iron are not high. Any iron factory can meet the requirements.
.”
"The difficulty with this thing is the sealing technology of the cans, but this is not a problem. Americans don't buy the cans, so the company is not doing well. When the time comes, the Lin family can just buy the company."
Next, Lin Mo was afraid that his father and others would lose money by buying this, so he first talked about the technology of this can, and then combined it with the cans he had seen in later generations, and took it as his own idea, and told the four people in one go.
People were stunned for a moment after hearing this.
After Lin Mo finished speaking, Lin Mo's father smiled bitterly and said: "It seems that you have done a lot of research on these things. You talked about canned braised pork, canned fruits, and canned vegetables. You even thought about the rough production methods.
come out."
"In this case, just tell us directly what companies you want to invest in! Don't worry, as long as it's reasonable, we won't reject your proposal."
Lin Mo suddenly felt a little embarrassed after hearing this. After all, most of what he just said was a combination of information from two lifetimes and gave some general content. He couldn't remember the names of those companies.
Thinking of this, Lin Mo said: "Father, I really haven't remembered the name of the company, but I can tell you what industries I want to invest in."
"Anyway, this time, the Lin family's capital has increased so much, and the income will not be less. We can invest in a bunch of companies in an industry."
"After all, we are just looking for a company alone now. At most, we can only see whether it has potential, but who can tell what will happen in the future? Who knows what situation they will encounter!"
"In this case, we might as well cast a wider net. As long as one company comes out on top, we can make back all the money with interest."
Listening to Lin Mo's sophistry, the four of them smiled bitterly, but they still nodded in agreement. After all, what Lin Mo said did make some sense.
