Hillary felt good, and the hostess had clearly taken into account the feelings of the guests, and the hostess was dressed in a purple silk gown that matched the color of her eyes.

The hostess was dressed in good clothes, Hillary was wearing a pink-toned gown, and Nicole wore no jewelry except for a black pearl necklace around her neck that was not particularly conspicuous.

As for Charlie, she also only wears a dragonfly eye that is more than 2,000 years old, although it is expensive, it is nothing special at first glance and looks low-key.

Carthage Dragonfly Eyes, one of the signatures of Princess Stars, if you deliberately do not wear jewelry or use other "low-key" jewelry as a foil, it will look a little artificial, and Dragonfly Eyes appear on such an occasion.

There are no gorgeous diamonds, no gorgeous gemstones, it's so simple, if you just look at the visual effect, it's not as gorgeous as the gold-encrusted lapis lazuli necklace around Hillary's neck.

Hillary loves turquoise and lapis lazuli, which is rumored in the family circles of high-level American politicians, and Zhang Nan and Nicole also know it.

On this official visit, both sides predicted each other's attire, and everything did not exceed expectations, which was suitable for both the host and the guest.

Lily and her sister don't need any necklaces this time, children, just show up as a little princess today, and don't take out some small toys for the two little guys, so as not to embarrass the future first lady who is a guest.

After a brief exchange of pleasantries on both sides, we entered the hall.

Zhang Nan is slightly shorter than Mr. Zipper by one or two centimeters, obviously the legend says that he has a height of 1.88 meters and a lot of moisture, 84 and 85 are about the same.

Nicole is more than half a head taller than Hillary, the latter is about 1.64 meters, and the future first couple looks very young, and it is quite harmonious for a few people to walk together, until they enter the main building hall...

Good fellow, Hillary was almost frightened: she didn't expect the main hall of this main building to be so high that she almost couldn't help but look at the ceiling!

When I was outside, I thought that the inner hall of the main entrance was the size of the main hall in the antique style "castle" where I lived today, and this would make the zipper couple feel that the hall in front of them could be as high as a five-story building!

The two of them were right, the height of the hall reached a staggering 16 meters, because Nicole had thought that such a design would work well.

When she was a student, she visited the Krupp family's hill estate and was impressed by the 16-metre-high hall in the main building.

Taking advantage of the opportunity to build a new main building in the manor, Nicole asked the designer to make such an exaggerated hall, but unfortunately...

She's a super decision-maker in the financial industry, but she's definitely not an architecture expert, and she misses one thing: visiting attractions and living at home are two completely different feelings and mindsets!

As a result, the family rarely entered their own house through the main gate of the new main building, because the family didn't seem to like the tall and empty space, and even Nicole began to hate the feeling of having to look up for the ceiling as soon as she entered the house.

We want to live at home, not a museum for people to visit!

Fortunately, the main building is big enough, wide enough, long enough, and there are enough large and small doors, usually you don't have to enter and exit from the main entrance, and the doors on the east and west sides are big enough to be magnificent.

But today you have to welcome guests from the main entrance, that's the attitude.

Well, the Zippers were also shocked by the hall, and it was nice to have the mentality of a visitor, but the large pile of cold medieval armor erected on both sides, and some ancient marble statues gave it a bit of a solemn taste.

The windows in the hall are very high, and there are dozens of oil paintings of different sizes but not small sizes hanging on the walls, which are estimated to be masterpieces.

The two of them studied law, not art or fine arts, and they didn't recognize who painted those paintings: as for the two pictures they paid attention to before, one was the housekeeper's reminder, and the second was because those two paintings had been on the news many times and had been seen.

didn't stop in the hall, and Zhang Nan didn't introduce the interest in the furnishings here: it was very grand, but because it would be disliked by the whole family, it would become an aisle.

Besides, if you introduce the furnishings here, you won't be able to eat?!

As the group walked on, Vincent and his colleagues were ushered to the lounge by the servants, while the Zippers entered a much more normal parlor with their hosts through a wide and extraordinarily high door: much more normal, five or six meters high.

The furnishings are also normal, the wooden structure and leather sofas, seats and all other furniture are modern styles, the colors of the four walls are different from the previous hall, much brighter, and there is no more awkwardness to look at the ceiling and have to tilt the neck, and people have become relaxed.

Everyone took a seat to rest, and from here they could see the bay in the distance through the window, and the garden scenery was unobstructed. Dinner will have to wait a little longer, and the two children will also take their leave for the time being, and they will not eat together at dinner.

In addition to the servants in the living room, there are Zhang Nan, Nicole, Charlie, and the zipper couple, plus a Guan boss.

Guan Xingquan is not an outsider, he is a family member, and this cooperation is normal.

The zipper couple knew that Mr. Guan, who had a little awkward eyes, was not an ordinary bodyguard, they had known him two years ago, and they also knew that he didn't like to talk, so they usually treated him as air.

The air is not suitable, few people are willing to chat with such a cold guy, very tired!

Well, in fact, that's the reason why Guan Xingquan didn't treat others as his own, otherwise at least everyone would be able to speak well.

This is the place where Zhang Nan's family sits after the new building is built, the layout is relatively warm, the furniture is modern, and the paintings hanging on the wall are not cold portraits, the style is much more lively, and it can even be said to be dynamic.

After sitting down, Hillary Clinton noticed that a large oil painting on the opposite wall seemed familiar...

"What the hell!"

This thought popped up in my head!

It wasn't a familiar painting, she had looked at the same painting about ten minutes ago: "The Ball at the Moulin Rouge"!

Nicole noticed the change in Hillary's attention and smiled, "Alan is very fond of Renoir's Moulin Rouge, so he hung both versions in a visible place. ”

Mr. Zipper also noticed the painting on the wall, and when he heard this, he was sure that both paintings were genuine Renoir's.

Magical!

What's even more amazing is still to come, and I learned from Nicole's mouth that what hung in the building before was the one that was almost burned by the little devil, more than 70 million.

As for this one...

“... It's a coincidence that Alan found it in a museum's artwork warehouse, and no one thought it was genuine in the first place, and it had been dusted in the corner for decades..."

Nicole is a good person, she won't say which museum she got it from, otherwise in the future, if she gets this joke-like news from the mouth of the President of the United States, the director of the agricultural curator will be scolded to death by some "righteous people"!

Some people will only think that the treasure is leaking, but they will not think that if it were not for the vision of the curator and the gentleman's agreement, let alone the new museum, God knows where this version of "The Ball at the Moulin Rouge" will appear in the future.

Maybe it's on the wall of a nightclub, or it's used as a decoration for an institution or a meeting room in a government department, and then it's thrown away in the garbage when the house is renovated!

Rich people are not generated in a day, ability is important, and luck is equally important.

Hillary has the heart of a strong woman in her bones, but this will be unconsciously led by Nicole to the topic, because some of the things she says are too unbelievable and attractive!

For example, when I first bought a house, I found a metal detector in my house to play a treasure hunt, and I really found millions of dollars worth of gold coins!

This luck can't be described as a simple explosion, it's simply a supernova explosion, and Hillary can't help but get a probe and check her backyard when she gets home.

The women chatted, and the men talked more formally, all about campaigning.

Soon, Tom, the first butler, came to invite everyone to dinner.

French Western food, nothing special, is that the ingredients are relatively fresh and slightly expensive, and the chef's skills are comparable to three Michelin.

Zhang Nan didn't let the zipper couple taste Chinese food, the first time they came to be a guest, it was better for others not to know how to eat.

Of course, the wine is the gold of its own winery, the best vintage aged wine, a bottle is almost a drink of Mr. Zipper's salary for a year, and even the tableware is a top luxury.

It's not that Nicole asks the housekeeper to show off, it's just because the porcelain used in the house is like this: if she is entertaining the most important guests, and the guests also like Chinese food, she may use Mao porcelain!

Americans don't know how to use this cutlery to make the zipper couple careful not to fall. If you change to the pomp and circumstance of Zhang Nan eating in the capital Baylor Mansion, it will have to be cramped!

Now my hands are cramping, and in another twenty years, I will have a direct epilepsy: a cup of wine that is not careful can cost hundreds of millions of dollars, a bowl for eating can even cost tens of millions of dollars, and a plate of fruit will cost tens of millions...

I can't eat this meal!

Now that the meal was finished smoothly, Nicole accompanied Hillary around the house, which was considered a visit.

As for Zhang Nan and Mr. Zipper, this will go to the smoking room, it's time to get down to business.

There was no need for any greetings, he had been polite enough before, and they sat on the sofa, and Zhang Nan spoke very directly.

"William, I'm a more direct person, I'm not used to the roundabouts and hypocrisy of politics, and I'm even more honest with my friends, I hope you can understand. ”

Mr. Zipper nodded slightly and said, "Understood, since I'm here, I just want to have an open and honest chat." ”

Zhang Nan smiled, "You have won this year's election, William, and Lao Bu will never be re-elected, unless the third world war breaks out now." ”

The Soviet Union is gone, the new world war has no to fight for the time being, and there is no chance of an accident, as long as the interest consortium behind the sunshine and stars still fully supports William.

This is a reassuring pill for Mr. Zipper, and then it is Zhang Nan's request.

"I don't need anything special in return, just a few.

First, the external environment in which our group operates wants to remain as it is during your eight-year tenure, which refers to the joint efforts of all the companies in the group, including me.

Of course, if there are some unstoppable reasons in the environment that need to be changed, I hope we can sit down and talk about it beforehand. ”

Zhang Nan is talking about an eight-year term, which is self-confidence, and self-confidence can make the other party re-elected successful!

"That's fine, big business is the foundation of America's existence.

But Allen, I hope that your financial company will be a little looser when it comes to robbing the domestic market, and there won't be too many ordinary voters who are bankrupt, and the giant of Sunshine Star is already very terrifying for Wall Street. ”

In this regard, Zhang Nan said: "Don't worry, everything will be within the rules of the game, and you won't always think about robbing ordinary people's money, and the result will make you embarrassed over there." ”

The whole world is the same, it doesn't matter if you rob your own people's money once or twice, if you do too much, you will be gossiped and hated.

If there is another economic crisis in the United States, as a result, Sunshine Xingchen will engage in speculation and fight, and it will be no problem to collapse other consortia, but it will not be good if a large number of ordinary people are forced to line up on the rooftop.

You must know that Sunshine Xingchen seems to like to do this very much, and he has the strength to do it, such as in the little devil, who eats people and doesn't spit out bones!

The conversation was very harmonious, and the two sides have clearly reached an agreement at present: the rules of the game are played internally, and the internal is not rectified to the death, as for the external... The president of the United States has always been the one who wants the world outside to be too stable.

Zhang Nan's request will still be there, Mr. Zipper is very clear about this, otherwise it would be too easy for him, the "president", to take the position.

Sure enough, Zhang Nan said: "In the first month or two, I got a few large plots of land in north-central Nevada for mining exploration and mining rights, and now it is a worthless desert, but in a few years it may have huge benefits."

Taxation costs a penny within the framework of these laws without a penny for the federal and state governments, and there are no problems with the rules and regulations that need to be met, such as environmental protection.

I hope that during your tenure there will be no new restrictions on the development of those mines at the federal level. ”

North and Central Nevada is definitely a wilderness, Mr. Zipper knows that.

"What mines are there that deserve to be brought up by this Allen?"

I have doubts in my heart, since today's conversation is open and honest, Mr. Zipper also said the doubts in his heart, so as not to be bottomless when he gets it.

"The gold mines, a few huge gold mines, are far larger than all the gold mines combined during the gold rush in the West of the last century. ”

Upon hearing this, Mr. Zipper laughed.

"I said Allen, it's a good thing, federal taxes are going to increase, Nevada is good now except for casinos, it's definitely good to have a big gold mine.

As long as your financial experts don't get too dark, I won't be embarrassed.

But in Nevada, I can only influence at best, but I can't be the master. ”

Well, it's good to think like this, the United States can't do a loophole in Canada, a mining site has a net income of hundreds of millions of Canadian dollars a year, and as a result, it only needs to pay hundreds of thousands of Canadian dollars in taxes.

This is the United States, Zhang Nan can make a lot of money for a long time by relying on those super large gold mines, and the taxes he pays will not be less, and he can also increase the employment rate in that barren land, which is mutually beneficial for everyone.

As for the Nevada side...

The United States is federal, and the power of the states is very large, but it is always good to have the influence of the president, and Zhang Nan is not a vegetarian.
