Chapter 247 - The Battle between California and Congress
Before Huang Yuan could say anything, one of the people in the Congress on the other side walked out immediately after being signaled by the speaker's eyes.

"Mr. Huang, I am Congressman Kvis, and I think you should know the reason why our Congress does this."

Kervis talked eloquently: "Look at the military orders submitted by California!"

"150 super-performance fighter jets, 20 beam guns, and [-] new EXO individual armors"

After listening to the congressman's description, Huang Yuan couldn't help but be moved.

This California is too ruthless. This series of orders is enough for California to defeat any country in Europe.

But the amount of this order is not cheap.

Xingchao Saiya Company's products are high-quality and low-priced, but that single order costs nearly 800 to [-] billion U.S. dollars.

This amount is not included in the discount Huang Yuan promised to Ellis.

That's right, the California government pays in full, no discounts, that's how rich it is.

California's GDP last year was close to 24 trillion US dollars, while the overall GDP of North America last year was less than [-] trillion US dollars.

Guangzhou, a major economic province on the other side of the ocean, had a GDP of only about US$1.8 trillion last year.

This shows how rich California is.

“You have to order various needs through Congress, and Congress decides which items on the purchase order are allowed and which items are prohibited.”

Kves continued: "Congress has submitted a judicial bill to the Federal Supreme Court that will restrict procurement issues in federal states."

"Your procurement already falls within the scope of military procurement."

"This is already a power that the state government cannot exercise alone, that is, it is a matter of national defense and finance."

Huang Yuan sneered in his heart.

This may seem like a high-sounding statement, but it may indeed lead to a situation of strong support and weak support.

But it is undeniable that Congress does not want to miss out on this profit, which is at least [-] billion or more.

Who wants to just give up?

Huang Yuan looked at Ellis, who shrugged helplessly.

On this point, he subjectively still sides with Congress.

After all, the decision of Congress will greatly protect the status of the White House, and it will also protect the political environment and ecology of North America.

"I disagree. At most, all products purchased by the California government will be submitted to Congress for registration!"

Los Angeles Mayor McCot said sternly: "This does not belong to national defense, but to facilities needed for urban infrastructure."

"Those weapons and equipment are equipment purchases required by the National Guard, and will be paid for by the state government!"

"This is a clearly written regulation in the judiciary. It is not a state of war. Your Congress has no right to interfere with the California government's autonomy over the California National Guard!"

Now Huang Yuan finally understood why the California government could argue with people in Congress like this.

North America is a ZZ environment where there are states first and then countries. State governments have legislative, judicial, administrative and other powers.

It just doesn't have the powers of national defense, taxation, diplomacy, currency and banking, etc. that only the federal government has.

The National Guard is the military force of the state government. Strictly speaking, it is the militia of the state government.

During non-state wars, the National Guard of each state only obeys the orders of the governor, and can refuse to execute the orders of the White House or Congress during non-war times.

Or, it can be understood as one sentence: the National Guard is the private mercenary of the state government.

Normally, if a state government purchases equipment for its National Guard, it does not need to be restricted by Congress. At most, it needs to be reported.But when the Congress saw the huge benefits, they immediately quit.

North America's annual military expenditure is only about 9000 billion U.S. dollars. The profits of these [-] billion U.S. dollars are generous enough.

Moreover, this is the city of Los Angeles. If all cities in North America undergo renovation in the future, all orders will have to go through Congress.

How huge will the profits be then?

Therefore, no matter how shameless Congress is, it must get this money.

At this time, the members of Congress looked calm and even confident.

Councilman Kvis stood up and retorted: "The city of Los Angeles is now destroyed by a natural disaster and cannot effectively exercise government rights, so the federal government has the right to take jurisdiction."

"Bochet!"

McCourt slammed the table and stood up and said loudly: "The California government took over immediately after the disaster. When will it be the federal government's turn to take over?"

The California government cannot give in on this point because it involves the administrative power of the state government.

"In the first moments of Los Angeles being destroyed."

After finishing speaking, Kervis took out a document from the briefcase next to him and handed it to Gavin and McCourt.

Gavin picked it up and looked at it, his expression suddenly became extremely ugly, and then handed it to McCourt who was standing aside.

After reading this, McCourt became furious. He slapped the table again and pointed at Kervis and said, "You are so shameless. You didn't think about how to provide relief on the day of the disaster, but you actually set a trap for us!"

"Don't you think it's shameful for you to take advantage of this situation?"

When the people in Congress heard these words, their expressions were normal. ZK has always been like this. How can he succeed if he is not thick-skinned and not dark-hearted?
"Okay, sit down, can we talk about something if we keep shouting?"

At this time, Ellis came out to smooth things over and said: "You guys will argue like this to no avail. How about I mediate?"

Here we go, the black-faced one finished singing and the red-faced one came on the stage, Huang Yuan complained in his heart.

"How to mediate?" Gavin asked in a deep voice.

Ellis said slowly: "All of your orders still need to be placed with Star Tide Saiyan through Congress, and the funds also need to be appropriated by Congress."

"But the Congress promises that your order will not be blocked. Everything will follow the normal procedures and be recorded. How about that?"

"You can rest assured, Mr. Huang is here too, and he can serve as a notary."

Gavin narrowed his eyes slightly. He knew that Congress and the White House were interested in the resale profits and would not give in.

If the state government forcibly confronts the federal government, there will basically be no good results.

However, don’t ZZBY usually compromise with each other?

So, Gavin took a deep breath and said, "Okay, since Mr. Huang has helped us in California so much, I agree."

"But you have to guarantee that Congress must give us certain concessions. Don't think that I don't know that you have an internal agreement with Xingchao Saiyan Company."

Huang Yuan couldn't help but shook his head slightly. These guys actually made it a matter of conversation in front of him.

These ZKs are also bullshit. One second they were so angry that they were blushing and thick-necked, but now they are shaking hands and making peace after the interests have been negotiated.

Ellis' eyes moved slightly and he looked at Huang Yuan, then smiled slightly and said: "Okay, no problem, let's just say that?"

Gavin nodded and said: "No problem, I can sign an agreement with the federal government at any time for distribution."
