(I'm very sorry for the recent update of the small square piece, I was sick recently, acute enteritis, diarrhea for three days, and today is only a little better.) ←，）

Zhou Ming followed the man out of the teahouse, and during the chat along the way, Zhou Ming learned that the man's name was Hoover, the president of the Brighton branch of the China Bank, and an extended version of the Lincoln sedan was waiting at the door, and they got in the car and left together.

"The place we're going to is some distance from Chinatown, in Lexington, I think you've heard of this place, right?" Hoover said to Zhou Ming.

Zhou Ming said with a smile: "I think no one who knows the history of the United States does not know the place of Lexington, because the independence of the United States began here, I went to college and read this history in textbooks." ”

In the chat between Zhou Ming and Hoover, the car started slowly, and it took about an hour to reach Lexington.

Lexington is located in the northwest of Harvard University, is a very quiet rural town, perhaps because of the excellent cultural environment here, or perhaps because of the preservation of the original historical appearance here, in short, there has been no industrial development here for more than 200 years, and it is precisely because there is no industrial pollution, it has also become a concentration of villas in Brighton, and many wealthy people like to build their own private villas here.

Zhou Ming's destination is a villa with very Chinese characteristics, this villa is not just a house, but consists of three houses with very Lingnan characteristics, and it is a very spectacular archway at the door of the house. In the end, Zhou Ming's extended Lincoln sedan entered the archway and stopped at the door of a side building, Zhou Ming got out of the car and did not go in for the first time, but first looked back at the main building, and then went in.

Regardless of China and abroad, if you want to receive important guests, you must arrange it in the main building, and now you are only a side building, which means that you are not so important.

Although Zhou Ming is not a very conceited person, he can also understand that he is just a young man in his twenties, although he has done some earth-shattering things at home and abroad, not only was he received by the president of the country, but even participated in the fall of a superpower, and a twenty trillion Dota plan, it does have the capital to attract the attention of those super families or some groups, but this capital is not thick enough.

But knowing and understanding is one thing, and whether you can accept it is another, after all, being on call and arranging to meet you in the side building is very uncomfortable.

Zhou Ming didn't know who he wanted to see was, but he could ask a consul general in New York to bring news to him, and then let a bank branch president pick him up, and the weight of his identity was obvious. If you want to change to someone else, it must be exciting to be received by someone with such a heavy status, but Zhou Ming will not think like this, he will only feel that this is contempt and insult to himself.

Wait, one day, I will live in a better villa than this, and I will stand in a higher position than the person who invited me this time!

Zhou Ming secretly swore in his heart.

Zhou Ming followed Hoover through a long corridor, bypassing a screen, and finally came to the side hall, which was decorated like the entire villa, very Lingnan style. There was a table in the center of the hall, where an old man was sitting drinking tea, he was wearing a yellow horse coat and a melon skin hat, and he looked like a fairy.

And there was no one else in this hall except this old man, this situation made Zhou Ming a little surprised, Zhou Ming didn't understand whether they were so confident in themselves, or if the old man himself had strong strength, or if there was some mechanism here, otherwise no matter how much they trusted themselves, they should also bring a bodyguard here. These people can let the consul general in New York bring news, but Zhou Ming doesn't believe that the matter of ** can be hidden from them.

So in this case, what can I do if I want to do something bad, or if I have any bad thoughts?

When he saw Zhou Ming coming in, he didn't look up, he just held the tea bowl in one hand and the bowl lid in the other hand and gestured to the opposite position and said sit.

When Zhou Ming heard this, he first waved his hand to let ** stand aside, and then sat down in front of the old man and said, "Hello Uncle Hu, I'm Zhou Ming, I'm here." ”

The old man nodded expressionlessly after listening to Zhou Ming's words, and then put down the teacup and asked, "How did Huang Yi handle that matter?" Now that you have come to me, I guess the president's amnesty order has been delivered on time, right?"

Zhou Ming nodded solemnly and said, "Yes, Uncle Hu, that important amnesty order came very timely, and I am very grateful to Uncle Tiger for helping me at such a critical time......"

The old man stretched out his hand and interrupted Zhou Ming's words: "I don't want to say too much about this matter, I just want to ask you, in your concept, what does the amnesty decree of a superpower president mean?"

The old man's question was very general, and Zhou Ming replied after thinking for a while: "The president's amnesty decree, I think, is a very important administrative document, and it can even be named the ultimate one. ”

"Is it the ultimate administrative document? It seems that it can be said that having a presidential pardon is equivalent to a gold medal for avoiding death, or more powerful than a gold medal for avoiding death, because it can pardon all crimes. ”

The old man paused at this point and then said, "Then since it is such an important administrative document, why don't you wait until the most critical time to take it out, but try all kinds of means to get it for the sake of a student? Do you think you can get it at any time?"

"Of course I don't think that, Uncle Tiger," Zhou Ming said, "I also understand the importance of the presidential pardon, but now if there is no amnesty, I have no other way." ”

"Do you think Brooke is so strong that he has blocked all your paths?" asked the old man again.

"Of course not," Zhou Ming said, "I don't want to tell Uncle Tiger that for this Brooke, I don't know how much influence his family has in Brighton and the whole of Massachusetts, but judging from his performance in this matter, at least the resources he can mobilize are not much." ”

As Zhou Ming's words fell, the old man immediately said: "But this is such a person, but he forced your hole cards out!"

Zhou Ming suddenly felt shocked, because the old man's words went to his heart, and this presidential amnesty order was indeed his hole card at the bottom of the box. You must know that when you first arrive in the United States, it has almost nothing to do with it, and if you can influence it, you can only rely on external forces, and the only external force you can borrow is North Russia, which has invested 1 trillion yuan and has a great influence on the president.

But even if he can rely on North Russia to influence the White House, it is impossible to repeat it again and again, not to mention whether President Nikolavich of North Russia will always buy his own account and help himself wipe these butts, just say that after the collapse of the Soviet Union, how much influence can this newborn North Russia, which is so bad that it is a mess, can it have on the United States, and for the first time can ensure that the President of the United States gives face, but can this face still be given every day?

Imagine that the president of the United States helps a foreigner sign an amnesty every day, but I am afraid that as soon as this news comes out, the whole United States will boil, and this president will soon step down, and only a fool B will do this.

It is for these reasons that other people think that they can get the presidential pardon very well, but in fact, Zhou Ming himself knows very well that he has played an irreproducible hole card.

Ordinary people's hole cards are used at the end of the road, but now I just met a rich second generation in the United States, and I was directly forced out of the hole cards, isn't this a shame?

But these are not excuses, being forced out of the hole cards is being forced out of the hole cards, there is nothing to explain.

"Uncle Tiger, but I don't regret being forced out of the hole card by a street boy, because I am a Chinese, I can't tolerate my compatriots being bullied like that in front of me, but I myself am indifferent. Zhou Ming said.

The old man raised his eyebrows, looking a little surprised, he looked Zhou Ming up and down a few times and shook his head gently: "But you have to know that what you see is happening every day in this country, and there are some more excessive than what you see, do you have to take care of it every time you see it? But there will be no next time when the presidential pardon decree is such a thing." ”

"Uncle Tiger, I understand, in fact, I have understood it since the first day I arrived at Harvard, but I don't think it conflicts with me not caring about it. Zhou Ming said.

"What do you mean by that?" asked the old man with a meaningful voice.

"Uncle Tiger I think I have just said that I can't tolerate my compatriots being bullied in front of me, because this is something I can do, as for other things that happen in other places, or things that happen in front of me that are beyond my ability, then I can only say sorry, it is difficult to be strong, and it is not difficult to force myself. Zhou Ming said.

"If I hadn't seen you in person, I really couldn't believe you were only in your twenties. ”

The old man sighed, after all, face and self-esteem are two insurmountable gaps, the old man has not seen Chinese with very national sentiments in the United States in his life, but they are often impulsive, even if they meet some people who can look at things rationally, they will also make some wrong judgments because of their own face and self-esteem, but Zhou Ming is very able to face reality, and his attitude is also the most practical.

"It's amazing how you can keep an objective mood, but it's not enough. The old man said.

The old man's words stopped here, and Zhou Ming took over the conversation very sensibly and said: "So I need to develop and enhance my capital strength to ensure that such a thing will happen again in the future, so that I will not be forced out of the hole cards so simply, at least I can think of other solutions." ”

Zhou Ming said this, and suddenly changed his words: "Uncle Tiger, I think this is what you want me to say, right?"

Uncle Tiger was stunned on the spot.
