Chapter 19: Take control of your own destiny

In the end, Caitlin was persuaded by Zhou Ming to agree to Louise's terms, and when they walked out of the study and told Louise about the results they had discussed, Louise was incredulous. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Did you decide in less than ten minutes?" Louise asked, surprised.

"Usually an important decision is made in a very short period of time, isn't it? Zhou Ming said to Louise.

Caitlin added: "Actually, these ten minutes were not about discussion, but he was simply trying to persuade me to accept it. ”

This made Louise even more surprised: "He persuaded you to accept it, did you accept it?"

Caitlin replied, "He's my husband, and I think he makes sense." ”

In the face of Caitlyn's easy agreement, Louise became entangled: "My God, Caitlin, do you understand what my condition means? Do you know that your father couldn't make up his mind after thinking about this condition for three years, and you have considered the consequences of agreeing so easily?"

"If I refuse, then I can't even use the power, and there's no choice in this decision, right?" Caitlyn asked rhetorically.

Louise was silent, as a senior nobleman, he naturally understood the meaning of Caitlin's words, to trade a power that does not belong to him for the time being, anyway, the power is not in his hands, if he wins, he wins the power, and if he loses, he has nothing to lose. This logic seems simple and clear, but at this point, how many people can figure this out?

People are selfish, and the aristocracy is even more serious in this regard, and Louise has seen many people who would rather go to hell with their wealth than save their miser.

In fact, Ferdinand was like this, in fact, in the face of Andre's pressing step, as the patriarch of Harusburg, he had many opportunities to turn the situation around, but in the end he missed the opportunity because of a reluctance, so that he lost everything, and even couldn't take care of his favorite daughter, died silently in a castle in Bermuda that no longer belonged to him, and his funeral was almost unattended.

Thinking of this, Louise took a deep look at Zhou Ming a few times, she didn't expect that this Chinese man looked young, but he had a vision that ordinary people did not have, his mind was extremely clear, and he did not have any foresight.

"It seems that you are giving me more and more surprises!" Louise said with a smile, "then from now on, we are allies!"

Zhou Ming smiled and said that he was honored, and took the initiative to reach out and shake Louise's hand.

After confirming the alliance, Zhou Ming and Caitlin left Louise's presidential suite, and when they went downstairs, Zhou Ming made a phone call, after which Zhou Ming said that he would rush to Paris immediately.

This made Caitlyn wonder, "Why are we in such a hurry to go to Paris? Didn't we have a formal alliance with my aunt just now?"

"An alliance is not a foolproof guarantee, if we nod and say an alliance, your aunt will be able to help us win this meeting, and I don't think your father will have to think about it for three years before. Zhou Ming said, "I'm sorry, I don't want to doubt your aunt, but I don't like the feeling of completely putting my fate in the hands of others, so I have to do something myself." ”

Caitlin nodded vigorously and said, "I believe in you!"

Then Zhou Ming and Caitlin came to the high-speed rail station in the city of Harusburg, France is the first country in the world to develop high-speed rail

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page) one, as early as ten years ago, France opened the first high-speed rail line, and now after ten years of development, although the high-speed rail network is not as developed as in the future, but at least from Harusburg to Paris is still driven by the economy.

Taking the high-speed train, Zhou Ming and Caitlin soon arrived in Paris, they walked out of the station with the flow of people, Zhou Ming saw a familiar figure, Zhou Ming waved to him: "Joross!"

That person is Joe Ross, the most brilliant investor in the Quantum Fund, and also Zhou Ming's partner in sniping the pound before.

Previously, due to sniping on the pound, Joros went to the United Kingdom, and later although the Bank of England surrendered and lowered the exchange rate of the pound, the investment did not end there, after all, there is another wave of harvest in the British stock market, and with the depreciation of the pound will also have a great impact on the whole of Europe, as a financial tycoon, Joros naturally wants to look for a second opportunity to invest, and it happens that he is looking for him in France.

Joros ran over excitedly and said, "It's really Mr. Zhou Ming, why did you come to France?

"I came to France for some personal reasons. Zhou Ming then let Caitlin go and said, "This is my fiancée Caitlin, the heir of the Harusburg family. ”

Joros was amazed by Caitlin's beauty, but the investment guru in his sixties was not deterred by this, and he cared more about her identity than Caitlin's beauty: "I see, I did hear that the situation of the Harusburg family is terrible right now. ”

Zhou Ming nodded and said, "So, it was in this bad situation that I had to invite you, an investment tycoon, to come out." ”

Qiao Ross immediately shook his head and said: "Mr. Zhou Ming, I'm afraid this is a little difficult, although I have some talent in investment, but when it comes to disputes within the family, I have never experienced it, I don't know how to do it at all." ”

Zhou Ming patted Qiao Ross on the shoulder and said to him: "Don't worry, I won't let you do those things that you don't know at all, this time I want you to do your old business, how about it?" Are you interested in helping me bring down a bank?"

Joros made a knightly salute for Zhou Ming: "Willing to serve you!"

Then Zhou Ming Caitlin followed Joros to the office he rented in Paris, I have to say that Joros is also a very discerning businessman, his rented office building is on the banks of the Seine, his north is the famous Champs-Élysées and the Arc de Triomphe, and on the side of the Seine, is the Eiffel Tower, which are the landmarks of Paris.

In fact, France is in a very awkward state in Europe, because its financial strength is not as good as that of London, its industrial strength is not as good as that of Berlin and Frankfurt, its technology needs to rely on foreign countries, and even the art that he has always been proud of is slowly becoming mediocre. ”

Along the way, Joros kept introducing Zhou Ming to the current situation in France, and Zhou Ming listened and asked him: "So what do you think?"

"I think if Mr. Zhou Ming needs money, we can ask the Banque de France to provide us with a large amount of francs. "And as long as you have money, Mr. Zhou Ming, what you have to do is simple, we just need to keep taking the check to the bank to withdraw cash, as long as we have a sufficient amount of money, no bank can resist it." ”

"This is a good way, then Joros you go ahead and do it!" Zhou Ming said to him.

Like the domestic high-speed rail in later generations, for the sake of safety, the high-speed rail in France did not run late at night, so Zhou Ming and Caitlin could only choose to stay in Paris for one night.

Lying on the bed, Caitlin couldn't sleep for a long time, and she said to Zhou Ming: "I feel self-conscious."

I used to be so conceited that I could see everything if I understood the most advanced financial knowledge and business methods, but today I realize that I am still far behind. ”

Zhou Ming opened his eyes and rubbed her hair dotingly and said, "If you think so, then I will be too much of a failure, because when I was in Brighton, I regarded you as the most difficult opponent to deal with." ”

"But I feel like I'm getting out of tune with your thoughts. "Like the covenant with my aunt today, and the way I came to Paris now, I wouldn't have thought of doing it if it were me." Actually, I have an understanding of game theory, but I can't do it like you. ”

Zhou Ming smiled: "If everyone can do what I do, then the world is really messed up, right?"

Caitlin reacted at this time, and said with a smile: "That's right, I seem to be thinking a little too much, Zhou Ming, you are the only one, no one can compare to you!"

"That's right, that's why you, the noble princess of Harusburg, have to lie on my bed now......"

"Not only to lie on your bed, but also to serve you to sleep comfortably. Caitlin took Zhou Ming's words and said.

Zhou Ming was stunned, obviously he didn't expect Caitlin to say this, seeing Zhou Ming stunned, Caitlin smiled happily: "It seems that you can't predict fate, you can guess anything!"

Saying that, Caitlyn took the initiative to raise her head and kiss Zhou Ming, but she just kissed it with a little bit of water, and then kissed Zhou Ming's neck and chest all the way down, the gentle and slippery touch made people excited to the top, until she finally took off her pants and entered a warm and wet ......

Zhou Ming and Caitlin got up early the next day, although the madness of last night made Zhou Ming still a little sore back, but the strong willpower still made Zhou Ming firmly leave the bed.

Zhou Ming and Caitlin left the hotel early and took the first high-speed train back to Alsace.

Sitting in the car, watching countless scenes retreat backwards, Zhou Ming sighed with emotion: "This is my first time in Paris, and it's a pity that I didn't walk around here to see the truth, but next time, when we come again, we will definitely be able to take a good look here!"

Caitlin nodded firmly, "I believe!"

And when Zhou Ming and Caitlin took the high-speed train back to Harusburg, in the castle where the meeting was held, André had already gotten up, and after he had finished breakfast, he was directing the servants to rearrange the venue!

Ifarman also came here early, he looked at the layout of the venue, and asked curiously, "You added a new seat for Caitlin, and you also prepared a microphone for them?"

Andrei also smiled: "It seems that this is indeed the case, but in fact it is not, because their original intention is to create chaos, but if I prepare them all, they will not be able to do it, and if I am ready, it means that the power of their speech is in my hands, and only with my consent can they be qualified to speak." ”

"Of course, they can also choose to shout without regard to the image, as long as they can shout through my microphone. Andrei added.

Efhaman laughed and said, "I see, it seems that Andre you really have to educate them well!"

"So I'm looking forward to today's meeting. Andrei said.

"But one thing, my brother, that Zhou Ming and Caitlyn seemed to have gone to Louise's room last night. Ifaman reminded.

André said with a meaningful sigh: "This is a place to be careful, but it only needs to be paid attention to. ”
