Even the janitor Murphy said that the Solar System’s issues should be addressed by Morgan, so Gao Yang had no doubt that Morgan could help him overcome the problems faced by the Solar System Company.

Gao Yang just wanted to know exactly how to do it, just like how Morgan wanted to know how Glewatov managed to graffiti the Statue of Liberty.

Morgan would tell Gao Yang how to do it.

Morgan confidently said, "You funded a Congressman last time."

"Of course I remember, that Andrew Quincy Adams. I’ve spent over a million US Dollars on him."

"Now is the time for him to pay back."

"What do I need to do, how do I do it?"

"You don’t need to do anything; you just need to tell him about the Solar System Company’s issues, and the rest, he knows what to do, at least better than you do."

"Wait a minute, the overseas business of the Solar System Company is facing CIA investigation. I tell a Congressman, ’Hello, my company has some issues, it’s under investigation, go and settle this for me.’ Just like that? What kind of joke is this?"

Morgan looked at Gao Yang, half-smiling, and slowly said, "What do you think?"

"Are you serious? Oh, you really are serious, but Morgan, these are my secrets. I tell a Congressman that my company has issues and can’t be investigated? Just say it so bluntly?"

Morgan sighed and said, "Why don’t you understand? Of course, you can’t rely on Andrew alone, but for so long, what’s your charity fund been doing? Listen, you call Andrew, tell him the problems you’re facing, then he’ll find a way for you. If his ability is not enough, he’ll find someone who can solve the matter. Do you understand? Andrew is just a bridge, he can carry you to the shore you want to reach."

Gao Yang laughed, "It seems profound, but I get it, he’s just a middleman."

Morgan pointed at Gao Yang, picked up his glass, and smiled, "You’re right, he’s a middleman. The power of one Congressman isn’t enough, but they can find more Congressmen, and even Senators. When there are more people speaking for you, the CIA won’t be a problem anymore, and it’ll never be a problem, as long as you don’t do something that instantly flips America upside down, the CIA will never interfere!"

Morgan directly pointed at Gao Yang’s chest, saying solemnly, "Remember! As long as you don’t do anything excessive, everything will be fine, but if you go too far and flip America’s table, then no one can save you."

Gao Yang took out his phone, and said quietly, "Andrew is now a Congressman, my contact with him has decreased a lot compared to before. Will it be awkward if I call directly about this now? Should I first try to build some rapport?"

Morgan laughed, "Gao, you’re Andrew’s campaign sponsor, and his biggest sponsor. You’re asking him to do a small thing now, if Andrew can’t accomplish it for you, hehe."

"Hehe what?"

"He took the money, he has to do the job, isn’t this a matter of course? Andrew only became a Congressman because he took your money. If he doesn’t work diligently for you, who will provide him campaign funds in the future? Andrew wouldn’t just want to be a Congressman, so he’ll definitely do every task well for his financer."

"I’m not doubting you, Morgan, I just don’t quite understand and want to learn more. I feel such a big matter, what if Andrew refuses to help? After all, he has to take risks, if he’s worried about jeopardizing his political future and refuses to help, and I’ve told him about the Solar System Company’s issues, wouldn’t that be bad? This is what I’m worried about."

Morgan suddenly burst into laughter, laughing so hard he was gasping, until his face turned red. Gao Yang stared blankly at Morgan’s laughter and quietly said, "What’s up? Is it that funny?"

"A big matter? Haha, you think this is a big matter?"

"What’s up? Isn’t it?"

Just after asking, Gao Yang suddenly realized and said, "You mean, I think it’s a big matter, but to you and Andrew, it’s simply not a big matter?"

Morgan shook his head, laughed at Gao Yang and said, "Don’t you get it yet? All this time, oh God, don’t you see who’s ruling America now? It’s us! For God’s sake, it’s capital ruling America! Who has the capital? Us!"

Gao Yang smirked, "But the official government doesn’t hesitate to deal with those tycoons."

Morgan laughed without saying anything, just shook his head. Gao Yang quietly muttered, "Did I say something wrong again?"

Morgan sighed, "That’s where you lack, Gao, you come from such a humble background. As a mercenary, you can’t grasp the fundamentals of how this country operates. It’s understandable, you weren’t educated in this. Listen well, I’ll explain it to you."

"I’m all ears."

"America is a country of capital, we are part of that capital, understand? We are merely one of the layers governing America, not directly controlling the machinery of this country. So as an individual, you can’t confront the nation, but being one of the less than one percent elite, you’re naturally a ruler.

As an individual, if you infringe the interests of the majority in this class, you’ll be ousted, but as long as you don’t infringe this class’s interests, you’re part of this level, naturally protected. Occasionally within this level, there may be internal conflicts, which are matters between individuals. The loser is ousted, doomed, but it’s not the country launching an attack on this class. Do you get it?"

Gao Yang nodded, "Got it, I regret not paying attention in civics class in middle school. It seems our school books taught these things."

Morgan frowned, "How is it possible! How can such things be known to the common people? Only when you’re in this circle are you qualified to understand these. Oh, of course, there are exceptions, but the world is ultimately full of ignorance."

Gao Yang scratched his head, "Let’s drop this topic, so you’re saying, I just call Andrew directly, and everything can be resolved?"

Morgan waved his hand, "Andrew is just a bridge, he’ll connect you with who you need to, and you just need to pay, pay the money you should, exchange for the power this class should get, that’s it."

Gao Yang said, "I’ll call him right away."

Morgan slowly said, "Tell him you’re at my place, and by the way, invite him to your cocktail party in Houston if he’s free. Oh, don’t forget to invite Morey."

Gao Yang thought about it, softly said, "Could you say those things for me? I’m still not very confident, I want to learn more from you."

Morgan waved, "Your status and position haven’t reached the point where whatever you say is the truth. But in front of Andrew, whatever you say should be acceptable. So, make your call, it’s time for you to adapt to your new life, now is the time."
