Chapter 57: The Most Troubled Ally
At eight o'clock the next morning, Zhou Ming and Caitlin came to the Elysee Palace, and there was President Jacques's secretary waiting here at the door, and following him, Zhou Ming and Caitlin came directly to Mr. President's restaurant. The www.biquge.info of the French president, he was still dressed as usual, a custom-made black suit, very solemn and formal, he was eating breakfast at the moment, and he did not forget to invite Zhou Ming and Caitlin when he saw them.
Zhou Ming was not polite to this, he sat down with Caitlin and directly reached out and grabbed the bread in front of Mr. President and put it in his mouth, on the other side Caitlin was much more elegant, just sat over there and beckoned the staff of the presidential palace to bring two more breakfasts.
This made Jacques's secretary stunned and his eyes were about to fall, but the president didn't say anything, so he had to do it.
Soon, the staff of the presidential palace brought two more breakfasts, and Zhou Ming asked Jacques while eating: "Dear Mr. President, I think you must have prepared for this morning's affairs, right?"
Jacques nodded and replied, "After breakfast, we can set off, and Queen Elisabeth and I have made an appointment to meet in Normandy." ”
With President Jacques's answer, Zhou Ming was relieved, this is also the most important thing he came over today, and Jacques's Normandy as the meeting place is not what Zhou Ming expected, because in fact, the British royal family used to be a duke of France, he defeated the previous British king through war, and then dominated the country, and even now, the Queen of England also holds the title of Duke of Normandy.
Now the Queen of England is too old to move around easily, and she prefers to talk in her own territory, while on the other hand, the French president naturally does not want to go to London, so there is a place acceptable to both sides, and it is naturally Normandy, the birthplace of the British royal family.
Normandy, France, is a very famous place, because half a century ago there was one of the largest landing operations here, but when Zhou Ming and Jacques flew to Normandy on his special plane, he realized that it was actually just an island under British control, and there was a miniature airport on the island, next to the Queen's Palace, although the island was not far south of the French coastline.
When the plane landed, Zhou Ming saw that there was another plane parked here, which was the private domain of the British royal family, which proved that Queen Elizabeth was already waiting here.
The plane landed smoothly, and Zhou Ming and Caitlin followed Jacques off the plane and took a car to the Queen's palace under the leadership of the British royal housekeeper.
Finally, in the queen's reception room, Zhou Ming Caitlin and Jacques saw her, Elisabeth was wearing a very simple dress, here except for the queen, only her butler and the servants of this palace remained, it seemed that this was indeed only a private meeting.
When Queen Elizabeth saw Zhou Ming and them coming, she stretched out her hand and motioned for them to sit down, making a full posture of the master.
And when Zhou Ming and the others sat down, Elisabeth spoke: "Mr. Zhou Ming, I think you should understand that Mr. Jacques and I, as the heads of state of our respective countries, usually have a lot of things to do, and it is a very unreasonable thing for us to come out to see you today, which is already the greatest respect for you, I hope you don't waste our respect." ”
Zhou Ming smiled at this and said: "Whether it's a waste or not, it depends on what angle you stand on." ”
Elisabeth and Jacques both expressed their desire to hear about it, so Zhou Ming asked them: "I think with your status, you must already know what happened in Mexico, right?"
For Zhou Ming's words, Elisabe and Jacques first glanced at each other, and then both nodded, and they both said to Zhou Ming: "We are very sorry for the matter of Joros, and we didn't expect that Mexico would be in chaos to this extent, and we didn't expect Jefferson to actually send his own private army like this, it's unimaginable!"
"However, my intelligence officer told me that Joros is still in good health, after all, it is now about to enter the 21st century, and there will not really be such a barbaric thing, I think Mr. Zhou Ming can still rest assured. Elisabeth also said.
Zhou Ming is not surprised that they will directly admit that they already know, after all, no one here today is a fool, it will be boring to hide it like that, it is better for everyone to be direct.
"It seems that both of you have known about this news for a long time?" Zhou Ming asked again.
Jacques immediately denied it: "Zhou Ming, you have wronged us by saying this, we are not prophets, we don't have the ability to prophesy, and we only got the news yesterday." ”
Elisabeth on the other side also said: "If we could have known this kind of news in advance, we would have informed Mr. Zhou Ming, after all, it is related to our investment in Mexico, and I can also count on the return on those investments to help me solve the problem of the repair cost of Buckingham Palace!"
Listening to their prevarication, Zhou Ming smiled: "Your Majesty and Mr. President, I don't think you need to be too nervous, because I am not here to ask you about the guilt today, but I want to tell you a result." ”
"What result?" asked Elisabeth and Jacques in unison.
"That is, I will not give up on the plan in Mexico, I will go to Mexico myself to continue the plan, and I will save Joros. Zhou Ming said.
Elisabeth and Jacques were shocked at the time, although they had thought of this possibility before, but this possibility is too outrageous, you must know that there is already a precedent for Joross, he should give up if he is interested, after all, bullets are not long-sighted, because Jefferson wants to take Joros for his own use, so he spared his life, but it may not be the case for you Zhou Ming, aren't you still looking for death?
It was this kind of thought that later they all speculated whether Zhou Ming would carry out the Mexico plan in another way, but they didn't expect Zhou Ming to really find death.
Elisabeth immediately praised: "This is really an incredible heroic decision! Mr. Zhou Ming, you let us see the courage from China, such courage was the momentum of the three hundred Spartan heroes in the decisive battle against tens of thousands of Persian troops, and the warriors are all God's blessings, so I believe that under God's protection, such momentum will bring miracles!"
Jacques followed up and said: "That's right, to be honest, I didn't expect Mr. Zhou Ming to make such a decision, your persistence is responsible for your commitment, but since you have made a decision, we will respect it, and we will provide you with the necessary help as much as possible!"
If anyone cares about Zhou Ming a little, then they must persuade Zhou Ming not to go at this time, but now Elisabeth and Jacques are not praising Zhou Ming's courage, and they also say that they will help inconsequentially.
This obviously means that Zhou Ming's decision is very good for their appetite, they very much hope that Zhou Ming will go to Mexico to help them go to the mines, if they succeed, they can harvest a wave in Mexico, get a very rich return on investment, even if they fail, there is no loss to them, they don't believe that a small illegitimate child dares to withhold their investment in Mexico.
To put it bluntly, Elisabeth and Jacques have the idea to take advantage of you!
Zhou Ming is very clear about this, but now he doesn't have even the capital to bargain with them, on the contrary, even if they do a little trick in the middle and pit themselves behind their backs, they can only break their teeth and swallow it in their stomachs, who makes themselves not a world tycoon now?
In such a situation, Zhou Ming secretly swore in his heart: Wait, one day I will let none of you dare to despise me anymore, and only I will take advantage of you, and you don't want to take advantage of me again!
Zhou Ming gritted his teeth in his heart and swore an oath, and at the same time made a confident attitude: "Thank you very much for your support and encouragement from Her Majesty the Queen and Mr. President, it is you who have given me greater confidence! This makes me regret that I did not make the decision to go to Mexico in person from the beginning, maybe I started to make such a decision, and this would not have happened." ”
Elisabeth immediately echoed Zhou Ming and said, "Yes, that's a pity, after all, Mr. Zhou Ming, you are a person who has been blessed by God, and you are not the same as Joross." ”
Jacques also said: "But now Mr. Zhou Ming, it's not too late for you to figure it out, because with Joros's previous foreshadowing, all the preliminary work must have been almost completed, and then the whole world is waiting for Zhou Ming to go to Mexico to make a big news!"
Elisabeth also said: "And there is another important point, Jefferson is a smart person, he will think that because of Joros's arrest, you don't dare to go to Mexico again because you are afraid, he never thought that Zhou Ming would have so much courage, so he relaxed his vigilance, at this time, Mr. Zhou Ming, your counter-thinking action, I believe there will be a higher chance of success!"
"Thank you very much, I believe that with your support, this thing is one step closer to success!"
Zhou Ming said happily, but then his words suddenly changed: "But Her Majesty and Mr. President, another thing is about how Jefferson knows the news from my side, I still don't understand, is someone betraying the news behind my back?"
Elisabeth and Jacques both unanimously denied this, and Elisabeth said: "Oh my God, how is this possible? It turns out that Mr. Zhou Ming, are you suspicious of us? Heavenly Father is above, Mr. Zhou Ming, please believe that we will not do such a thing no matter what!"
Jacques also said: "Mr. Zhou Ming, you are investing in us by doing this, even if we don't give you the greatest help, I don't think we will betray your news, right? Isn't this contrary to our own interests? This is the greatest stupidity!"
If it weren't for knowing that they were all old foxes in the political arena, Zhou Ming would almost believe their conclusive performance.
"It would be great if that was the case, and I would be more than willing to trust my allies. Zhou Ming smiled and said, "Then please ask Her Majesty the Queen and Mr. President to continue to help keep my secret, otherwise I may not do anything more crazy in Mexico, in case I accidentally hurt others, it will not be a pleasant thing." ”
In the face of Zhou Ming's threat, Elisabeth and Jacques replied together: "We must be Mr. Zhou Ming's most assured allies!"
