Chapter 0332 - I Want to Show Off My Wealth!
"Tap, tap, don't knock. This time it was Adellaid's turn to watch the play, and Li Zitao told him thousands of times around the carriage, for fear of bumping into it.
It seems that as long as you touch the sturdy wooden box, the paintings and calligraphy inside with various protective bedding will be 'shattered'. β
"Fioret, you look prettier than last time, especially here, is there any secret recipe?"
Her Royal Highness's gaze swept over her towering bosom, and she was thinking about the so-called 'secret recipe'. β
I don't know where foreigners got so many secret recipes, shouldn't this be the patent of the Chinese?
"There is no secret recipe, Your Highness Princess, if you want to say something, it is to be nourished in some way. Fiore bowed her head in salute, and out of the corner of her eye, she glanced obscuribly at the figure beside the carriage.
On the way to the airport, Li Zitao still felt a chill in his back, as if he was being targeted by something 'unclean'.
Rush will stay in London for the time being, waiting for news, and they will need to rush back to the United States as soon as possible, with a series of things waiting for them to be resolved.
The most urgent issue is the amendment and adoption of the law on the protection of children.
In 1912, the United States established the Federal Children's Bureau, the world's first government agency dedicated to children's affairs.
In the 20s, the more affluent middle-class women advocated the "free children from orphanages" and "foster families" movements, which further intensified people's concerns about children.
This is also the reason why the think tank initially advocated that Li Zitao agree to Norma and Eric's foster care, and he was favored by a large number of middle class members.
By the late '20s, there were 300 child abuse prevention societies across the United States, known simply as 'SPCCS.' β
However, to this day, the social acceptance of SPCCS is still very low.
Their forcible separation of families is unreasonable and even cruel in the context of the growing family concept in North America.
With the advent of the Great Depression, the activities of civil society associations became more and more difficult, lacking attention, funds, materials, legal assistance, etc.
As a result, a large number of people are stuck in a difficult situation in their lives, and they can no longer be in the career they love.
Coupled with social indifference and resistance from some, the number of associations is dying out rapidly, and cases of alcoholism and domestic violence are on the rise.
The International Foundation for the Protection of Caring Children (IFFTPOC) was established in such a situation.
Adelaid wants to unify the SPCCS across the U.S. into a more transparent, efficient nonprofit organization that uses the law to better protect children.
But before she could do so, she would first and foremost affirm that these children were subjected to abuse and violence.
There are sufficient legal provisions or examples to help children in need.
"Is the age limit in your proposal a little too high?" said the two on the plane, discussing the age limit for children in the proposal.
"Aren't you a child when you're 14?" asked Adellaid.
At the age of 14, I already knew the first teacher in my life. β
Ahem, this is something that must not be said, otherwise the image will collapse in an instant.
However, this scale is really difficult to pass in the current environment.
In the factory, there are many children who come out to work at the age of 13 and support their families, and there are also many people who get married at the age of 14~5.
If we define them as children, there is more to it than just abuse and violence.
The first thing Li Zitao could think of was that the rare number of juvenile courts would be overwhelmed by snowflake-like paper.
In the end, none of them convinced anyone about age, but it was just a discussion about work, and it had nothing to do with life.
At this point, not only Adelaide is very clear, but even Li Zitao, who is gradually integrated into American life.
So this incident did not spoil the good atmosphere of the short journey.
The passionate fiancΓ©, after drinking two glasses of whiskey, occupy the 'battlefield' of the rear cabin. β
The fierce wails of the battle and the horn of resistance made Lily's legs weak in fright.
So much so that the plane stopped in Washington, and after Adellaid left, she couldn't wait to crouch in front of the sofa, waiting for the judge's judgment.
By the time the plane landed in Chicago, Lily was already in good spirits, with a sweet smile and a sparkle of satisfaction in her eyes.
"I'm going to die, I'm really going to die" Li Zitao in the car posed in a standard Beijing paralysis pose, muttering incoherently.
"Boss, stay at a hotel or home tonight?"
Hearing the little elk Jesse's question, Li Zitao sat up smartly: "Go home." β
So under the gaze of the little elk's complaining gaze, Li Zitao got out of the car and walked home.
The little ones were already asleep, but his dogs were lying by the fireplace in the living room, and the warmth of the room made them look listless.
"Sir. Dan greeted him as soon as possible.
By this time, Hogg was resting, and he had to keep his energy up every day to make sure his home was in good order at all times.
"Prepare the hot water, I want to have a good rest. Sitting on the sofa, Li Zitao was still thinking about what made Her Royal Highness the princess's combat effectiveness stronger and stronger.
Growing stronger?
In the course of time?
Accumulate over a long period?
If it continues like this, will it become day and night?
Just as Dan informs him that the bath water is ready, a call from the antique shop comes in.
The paintings and calligraphy brought back from Sotheby's arrived at the 'safe house' without incident. β
From the bottom of his heart, Li Zitao feels that the antique store is much more important than the safe house, and the collection inside will be enough to create hundreds of billionaires in the future.
And a lot of things are not just price-measurable.
"When the castle is finished, use them to decorate the castle. "What the first mansion in New York, the first mansion in North America.
In front of his 'first castle in the world', he is all scum.
Thinking about how beautiful his castle was just outside when the bigwigs were still outside, he pushed open the door and two pieces of medieval knight's armor stood on either side.
Before I had time to be surprised, the glass inlaid 'Longmen Grottoes' Buddha body and Buddha shrine in the corridor came into view.
He was about to scream when out of the corner of his eye caught a glimpse of the 'Five Oxen' framed on the wall on the right. β
Next door is a lifelike, different shape of the 'Hundred Horses'. β
On the porch of the living room there is a tiger cannibal, and in the living room there are 'red and white hibiscus pictures' and 'Xiaoxiang lying tours'. β
Above the back of the seat in the study, the third word post in the world, 'Cold Food Post.' β
"Ha, haha" soaked in the barrel bath, Li Zitao smiled extremely weirdly.
He couldn't wait to learn 'space-time correction** now. β
With a wave of the hand.
Whoosh, 4 years have passed, 'showing off wealth is the right posture for salted fish!'
It's a pity that this kind of thing can only be thought about in the mind.
It is more practical to continue to think about the matter in front of you, and I don't know how big His Royal Highness the King's appetite will be, and when he will get the exact news.
