Bab 1411: Race Against Time

A banquet was held on USS Obama.

Ladies in evening gowns and gentlemen in tailcoats danced on the dance floor. The politicians and entrepreneurs who stood beside the long banquet table toasted and talked eagerly. Among them were shipowners, merchants, members of Congress, and politicians in government agencies.

This kind of banquet was very common on USS Obama, as if something worth celebrating happened every few days. Even if most of the poor people on the cargo ships were struggling to get by, this did not stop them from squeezing out some supplies to enjoy life.

"...Have you heard of Senator Bansar's proposal? He actually proposed to the Congress to close the ranch on USS Lahaina and set free the thousand double-headed brahman cows! Jesus Christ. I have never heard of such a ridiculous proposal!"

"Anyone can join our Congress now. We must tighten the threshold for those that want to become part of the Congress."
