After the family finished breakfast, they dispersed.

The governor and his wife rarely rested at home, but there was no one to serve them.

The eldest brother Colin has a beautiful appointment, the elder sister Virginia is worried about Isaac who lives in the Manga Hotel, the younger brother Robert has made an appointment with a friend, but he doesn't tell where he went, and the twin sisters took a large dividend from Robert, and they are going to have a good time with the sisters, and Evan himself has business to do, just like that, there are six brothers and sisters, and none of them stayed in the official residence.

In this regard, it is impossible for the husband and wife to say that they have no idea in their hearts. Nina, in particular, almost shed tears when she saw off the last Colin to go out and returned to the empty house, and she lay on her stomach in her husband's arms for a long time before she calmed down.

Not to mention how the couple solved their loneliness, at ten o'clock in the morning, Evan, who was talking to the middle-level backbone and worker representatives of the company in the factory area of the Magic Seven Company in the name of celebrating Christmas, received a call from Davidson.

"Merry Christmas, Davidson!" took the phone from Jean Leon's hand, Evan shook his hand and motioned to empty the office, Davidson knew his schedule, and chose this time to call back, definitely not as simple as saying Merry Christmas, "How is Dallas?"

"Merry Christmas, Evan. Davidson, who was on the other side of the phone, said unhurriedly: "How about Dallas, I don't care." ”

"But there's one thing I think I need to let you know, and I hope it doesn't disturb your holiday spirits. ”

"What's the matter, you say. Evan said: "It can't be related to the listing of the Demon Seven Company." ”

"It's not. Davidson said: "It has nothing to do with the listing, but it has something to do with the Magic Seven Company." ”

"Evan, Elkins, do you have any impressions of the last name?"

Evan thought for a moment, shook his head, and said, "No, what's wrong?"

"Evan, the Elkins family is the controlling owner of a bank in Houston, Texas, and the family was involved in our company's roadshow event," Davidson said. Originally, they showed very ordinary attention, but yesterday they changed their usual attitude. ”

Evan interjected with interest, "Oh, what did they do to make you call me out of it?"

Davidson said: "James Elkins Jr., the next generation of Elkins speakers, approached me yesterday and wanted to buy shares in the company. ”

"Why did you want to buy it from you?" Evan said this when he realized what Davidson meant: "Oh, I see, he didn't want to buy the newly issued part of the stock, right?"

"Yes! The price is not low. Davidson said, "In addition to me, the deputy who came with me was also asked for the price. ”

James Elkins Jr. even tested whether any of the company's shareholders were interested in transferring their shares. ”

Evan said: "This little James Elkins is also too beautiful, the company is about to go public, will anyone sell it?"

The listing of the Magic Seven Company is regarded as a typical internal operation by Wall Street and the New York Stock Exchange, as long as you know a little bit of the inside information, you can guess that as long as it is listed, the stock price will not be low. Sell it now, that's stupid and can't be stupid anymore.

"It's definitely not going to be sold...... But. Davidson stopped talking.

Seeing Davidson's posture, Evan frowned slightly, pondered for a moment and said, "Davidson, do you think Elkins has another purpose for this move?"

Although Evan couldn't see it, Davidson nodded and replied, "Yes." ”

"As a banker, Elkins could not understand that, unless faced with exceptional circumstances, trying to buy shares at such times is almost no different from hitting the ground running. ”

"But they did it anyway, and they did it with great fanfare. ”

"I don't understand why they did it. ”

People like Davidson are not afraid of competition, they are not afraid of conspiracy, they are afraid of knowing nothing about conspiracy.

Because he had no clue, Davidson had to report.

After listening to Davidson's analysis, Evan didn't think he was suspicious, and he had the same doubts in his heart.

So, after a pause, Evan said: "Davidson, I have written down this matter of Elkins, I will ask people to check it carefully, you yourself should pay more attention to the other party, don't break the communication, it would be best if you can get more information." ”

"Okay, I got it. ”

Hanging up the phone, Evan returned to the venue first, and continued the long-interrupted exchange meeting.

An hour later, after the meeting ended, Evan immediately ordered Vidak to send someone to gather detailed information about the Elkins family. In addition, Evan ordered the Laplace team, which was working overtime even at Christmas, to compile information about recent Wall Street and report it to him.

Afterwards, Evan went straight back to the residence.

When he returned home, the sisters Dora and Dorothy were already home. The two of them seem to have bought too many things in the half day they have been out, and they are being reprimanded and preached by Nina. That is, they are old, or their ears will definitely suffer.

Evan did not get involved in the matter of Yan's mother and daughter, but wisely chose to avoid it, hid in his father's study, and unsurprisingly saw Earl who was reading.

"Hey, what are you reading?"

Evan greeted with some big and small greetings.

Seeing Evan, Earl took the bookmark and put it on the page he was reading, closed the book, and answered the question: "Are you back, isn't it over yet?"

"No!" Evan glanced at the book jacket and saw at a glance what it was.

The Foundation, by Isaac Fields.

Evan snickered to himself, his father was not surprised at all when he read this book. My daughter fell in love with a writer, and it was difficult to judge how people were for a while, but she could also get a glimpse of it from his works.

Earl put it aside, looked at Evan, and said, "We haven't spoken alone in a while, can we talk?"

Evan nodded, "Seems to be true." ”

"If it's a conversation, of course I'm fine. Instead of finding a place to sit down, Evan wandered around the bookshelf, his eyes scanning the title on the spine of the book, turning his back to Earl, and saying, "Just, what are you talking about?"

I haven't seen it for a while, and there are quite a few more books on the shelves.

Earl said: "You can talk about anything, we are father and son, and we are not having a meeting, we need to decide on the topic first." ”

"That's right!" Evan smiled, looked back at Earle, and said, "Why don't we start with the book you read?"

Earl paused, then glanced at his son, and said with a straight face: "Change the subject." I haven't finished reading it yet!"

"You can evaluate it if you haven't finished reading it......" Under his father's forced gaze, Evan had to shrug his shoulders and said, "Okay, I'll change my career." ”
