Working as a police officer in Mexico

Victor crossed his hands, tapping his fingers on the tips, and pondered for a long time, "What benefits does this bring me?"

Lucas Glassley raised his head, recalling his elder brother's advice to him, he steeled himself, "My brother said if you are willing to support him in remaining the President of the United States, all American weapons labs can be open to Mexico, and wartime command authority could even be handed to Mexico, even the nuclear weapons keys!"

If Charles Grassley were here, he would definitely swear loudly, are you brainless? Is this how you negotiate?

Directly play four twos with a pair of jokers?

What's left after that, a 3 and a 4? How do you play?

Lucas Glassley, while not exactly spoiled, had limited ability. Being so intimidated, he revealed all his cards.

???

This bold?

And Victor was instantly stunned, greatly shocked!

Is this a complete subjugation to Mexico?

He wasn't very happy, but rather cautious, feeling there was a problem. He sneaked a glance at Lucas Glassley, whose eyes were very clear...

Making Victor a bit depressed instead.

"You should know what this condition means; I have a question. If all these are handed over to Mexico, then the United States... won't be independent anymore, sometimes even passive." He couldn't hold back the curiosity in his heart and asked.

"The United States is the United States, and the Grassley family is the Grassley family. We've never thought about domination; fighting is the most violent thing. We want to do business peacefully. Making money is the key."

Sure enough, there's an old saying, the United States is just a piece of junk, break it apart, and it's just chicken feathers.

What? You've never heard this old saying?

Oh, I just said it.

For Americans, their own interests far outweigh the country's, and this has happened many times in the past.

For example, in the 1980s, Toshiba Machinery, a subsidiary of Japan's Toshiba Company, violated a "Paris Coordinating Committee" ban, exporting nine-axis CNC machines to the Soviet Union, helping Soviet submarine technology leap 7-10 years, resulting in the US Navy losing its acoustic detection advantage for 34.

Even though Toshiba is a Japanese enterprise, the United States Congress took the opportunity to push for trade sanctions against Japan, including banning Toshiba products from being exported to the United States for three years, and used it as leverage to force Japan to make concessions in markets such as semiconductors and agricultural products.

During the incident, 90 companies, including General Electric and Motorola, opposed severe punishment of Toshiba, fearing damage to their interests.

Another example might be cases during World War II, such as some American companies doing business with NC Germany, like IBM providing punch card technology to help manage concentration camps.

Patriotism?

To these capitalists, patriotism is not important.

"..."

Victor's smile was very stiff. He took a deep breath, leaned back, and nodded, "I understand Mr. Charles' request; this point needs us to discuss."

Lucas Glassley also knew it couldn't be rushed, so he nodded.

Just then, Casare came in with a tray of coffee, perfectly timed as he walked in. He happily handed it to Lucas, "Try it, coffee beans we grew ourselves in Mexico."

The Yank dry laughed and thanked him, downing it in one gulp like a bull drink, and then stood up to take his leave under their astonished gazes.

"Do you have a place to stay in Mexico City?"

Victor asked, and when the other person didn't answer, he turned to Casare, "Arrange something for him. When guests arrive, we should be hospitable as hosts."

"Understood."

This made Lucas Glassley somewhat embarrassed. As he walked out with Casare, he suddenly turned his head, "Mr. Leader, can I ask you a question?"

"Of course."

"How do you view the elite class, or families with legacies lasting hundreds of years?"

This question startled Victor, understanding what it meant; it must have been Charles who let his brother test Victor a bit. He promptly replied, "Families are very interesting, I think they are necessary for society. In traditional society, families that have lasted for hundreds of years often become the maintainers of local order, like the Howard family in Yorkshire, UK, which has ruled there since the 15th century. Their castle is both the family residence and the regional political center, and they continue to participate in local public welfare through family foundation, maintaining British dominance well."

"I think it's fantastic!"

Casare raised his head in confusion, looking at his boss. In reality, Mexico also has many century-old families that hold great influence in politics and military, and even many drug traffickers dare not mess with them.

But later, all these families were... crushed, under the pretext of "treason" and "collusion with drugs."

The boss didn't seem like someone who could tolerate the existence of families.

The ruling power couldn't reach the villages, all because of these guys.

How could authoritarian Victor allow their existence?

So...

He could only be fooling them.

Sure enough, Lucas Glassley looked very satisfied.

"Can I ask you to do me a favor?" Victor asked with a smile, "I'm particularly curious about the family model, especially how these families have greatly helped local economy and politics and have significant influence. I'd like you to help me collect famous family genealogies; I want to see how they're passed down, very curious."

Victor spoke very sincerely!

Europe and America also have genealogies. As an immigrant country, early immigrants to the United States, such as the European Puritans and explorers of the 17th-18th century, began recording family genealogies to trace their ancestral roots and maintain family bonds. For example, the Mayflower passenger descendants' association still retains detailed passenger genealogies, becoming a typical representation of early American immigrant genealogies.

Some families originating from European nobility, like the Roosevelt family and the Adams family, continued the European tradition of genealogies, documenting blood relations and historical achievements through family archives and literature to find their ancestors.

For instance, the Adams family's genealogy can be traced back to the 17th-century English immigrant John Adams, with detailed records of family members' contributions in political and academic fields.

Some families even specifically hire people to maintain genealogies.

Lucas Glassley certainly wouldn't refuse this request, patting his chest and assuring, "No problem, I can also get the genealogies of families allied with the Glassley family; we were in the Americas before the United States was established, we are natives!"

Indigenous people: make my voice heard, make my voice heard!

Victor praised him with a smile, and Lucas left happily.

Unknowingly, someone named Huang Chao also liked to collect genealogies once.

After closing the door, he squinted his eyes and meticulously began to weigh the gains and losses.

Is Charles Grassley really useful or not?

Even with my support, can he develop in Skull and Bones?

What if he suddenly turns against us?

All these need thorough consideration...

As Senate Speaker, Charles' words can't all be trusted.

...

Meanwhile, in the backyard of a Buddhist temple in Yangon, Myanmar.

Many people dressed as monks could be seen coming and going, looking very anxious.

"Director! Director!"

A Burmese man jogged into the central building to see a man biting a cigarette, sitting with a rugged appearance.

"How many times have I told you, don't call me director, call me sir, sir!"

Sidney Riley shouted angrily, grabbing a book and throwing it over.

He was also a bit frustrated; this Mexican Asian intelligence division was established late, and most people were relatively inexperienced. Fortunately, Myanmar's intelligence agency wasn't competent, or they would have long been shut down.

"What is it?" Looking at the aggrieved subordinate, Sidney Riley took a drag of his cigarette and asked.

Speaking of the matter, the subordinate's eyes lit up, "We found Ochoa, the Ochoa from Medellin! He's in Yangon."

Upon hearing this, Sidney Riley stood up immediately, throwing the cigarette to the ground.

"Damn, this is the road to heaven you don't take, and you come uninvited to hell, delivered credit."

"Take him out!"

"This year's bonus will be triple, I say it!"

The subordinate, breathing heavily, "Yes!!"
