Just as the sale of Strus's mobile phone was gaining heat amid the controversy over the Patriotic Law, Hilmalev flew to Washington.

The matter of his fur farm had to be resolved as soon as possible. The Magadan Oblast Department of Agriculture has issued a notice for destruction within a time limit, and if the matter is not resolved soon, he does not know whether the animals raised on the farm will actually be destroyed.

If it wasn't certain before, when Link rejected his $20 million offer, he was almost certain that Link was targeting his business in Russia. Otherwise, Link will not agree with his offer and will send someone to negotiate with him.

But Link refused and there was no follow-up. That proved that Link had absolute confidence that he would give in.

He did give in.

If things are allowed to drag on, he risks losing the opportunity to breed fur animals in Russia. Link Hans's power in Russia, he could not confront it.

He had to bow his head.

It's just that he bowed his head, but Link didn't pay any attention to him.

He couldn't find Link's contact information, and even if he did, he might not be able to reach an agreement with Link on the phone. So he made a special trip to Huazhou, hoping to find a matchmaker so that he could have a chance to have a good talk with Link, hoping that Link would let him go.

Shirmalev also has a business in Huazhou, which is a forest farm. So he also has some friends in Huazhou.

He approached a Washington legislator. It was an old friend of his, and a person he sponsored. It's just that his friend who is a member of parliament said: I don't know Link very well.

"Sylma, I only met him at last year's annual meeting of the Washington Bankers, and we didn't have a lot of conversation. I can help you date him, but I'm not sure if he'll give me face. ”

"Thank you so much for your help, Denison. ”

For a super-rich man of Link's size, it is not ordinarily difficult for a congressman to want him to give face.

Hilmalev also knew at this time that he was overestimating himself and underestimating Link. He didn't dare to think that he would be able to reconcile with Link easily.

Link hasn't been out much since he returned to Washington. If his business needs to be dealt with, he will take care of it. Just stay at home with the kids if it's okay.

His twin children are one and a half years old, can walk, run, and call people. It's a little harder to take care of than before. Especially Evan, this little guy is going to be throwing things around.

Thankfully, Evan doesn't lose anything on the table. Jessica will stop him when he drops something on the table, and will give him a few gentle hits to let him know that he can't throw anything on the table. All he threw away were his toys.

Those things Link also threw away by him. When he throws it out, he will also throw things back near him and ask him to pick them up and throw them away.

According to parenting books, children are actually learning by doing things like that, and adults are involved, so that children feel that adults are playing with them.

Caitlin was much quieter, and she would sit obediently in Link's arms and dress up the doll Jessica had bought for her.

She would clumsily tie the doll's hair and then grin and hold the doll high for Link to see. Link would take the doll and praise her exaggeratedly. This will make her happy for a long time.

Link was playing with the kids when his special assistant, Ames, came over: "Boss, Rep. Denison Marshall from Washington just called. He wants to invite you to dinner. ”

Link took Caitlyn in his arms and asked, "Did you say anything?"

"Nope. I'll just get back to him and see if your schedule is available. ”

Link recalled, and remembered the councillor. However, he remembers that he had only exchanged a few words with the other party at the Washington Bankers Forum held in Seattle. Friendship is not at all. Why would the other party suddenly invite you to dinner?

"Just say I don't have time for the time being, and ask him what the hell is going on. If something matters, I can adjust the timing. ”

Ames immediately said, "Yes, boss." I'll reply to him as you tell me!"

Link stopped him and said, "Also, you have people check what he's for and against now." Or is there something special that needs it. "Nothing to be courteous, either a traitor or a thief. Of course, there seems to be something wrong with a member of the House of Representatives. However, Link couldn't think of anything the other party would have to talk to him about other than asking for himself.

Funding is unlikely. This has just been elected, and as a sitting parliamentarian, there will be no shortage of funders. So he felt that it was very likely that someone wanted to negotiate with him through the other party.

And the biggest thing that came to his mind was the Strus phone. Or it's a matter of seeds. Those two things were things he couldn't compromise on. If the other party wants to talk to him about that, his "lack of time" is the best way to avoid it.

"Yes!"

Ames said and pushed out of the living room.

Not long after Ames left, Jessica, who was working at Fox, called, and said, "Link, I interviewed a Chinese girl on the Internet. ”

"Chinese girl?interview?" Link was confused. "Although it is a Chinese girl, if it is okay, of course you can decide whether to hire her or not. But what position is she applying for?"

"It's not the company, it's Hannah's Chinese tutor. Jessica reminded him. "You forgot? We've talked about this before. ”

Link remembered and said, "Didn't you say there's no need to worry?"

"Hannah is almost five years old now, which is the best age to learn a language. Jessica explained. "And I'm going to learn too!"

When Link heard her say this, he smiled and said, "In that case, when will she come to class?"

"I interviewed her, but I didn't know anything about Chinese. Are you free? If so, I'll let her fly to the castle and see if she's a good fit. The cost of renting an aircraft will be paid by us. ”

The little money for renting a plane, Link didn't care. He said, "You let her come." ”

For Hannah's governess, he really can't take it lightly. Not to mention the rest, he has many business competitors. It is very common to arrange a commercial espionage method.

If someone with bad intentions infiltrates Hannah's castle, even if his family will not be harmed, it may also leak some secrets about his family.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, he couldn't help but be a little surprised to see the Chinese girl Jessica mentioned. Because this girl he had seen before.

He didn't expect that the Chinese girl Jessica interviewed turned out to be the same translation girl he happened to meet when someone was selling thousands of dollars in a casino.

The one who went out was a wanted criminal, who had gone through makeup when he entered the casino, which was detected by Carrick's facial recognition system. That time, after he confirmed that she was an international student from China, he was worried that too much involvement would lead to a deeper police investigation, and eventually Carrick. He asked Douglas to let the girl go.

But he didn't expect Jessica to find her when she looked for a Chinese teacher.

Zhang Yun knew after Jessica's interview that she was applying for the Chinese teacher of Link Hans's eldest daughter, and she didn't feel strange to see Link.

She stood tall and said in English, "Hello Mr. Hans, I'm Jennifer Chang." He is an international student from China and is currently studying at Huazhou University. Here's my resume. ”

Link stretched out his hand to signal her to sit down and said in Chinese, "Miss Zhang, we can talk in Chinese." He said as he took the other party's resume, flipped it open and said as he read it. "Miss Zhang, from your resume, it seems that you have not worked as a tutor. ”

"Yes, I really haven't done anything like that. However, Mrs. Hans said in the interview that she and your five-year-old daughter are studying together, and for the time being, they only need to teach simple Chinese. I'm confident that I can do that kind of work. ”

Hearing her say this, Link looked down at her resume again, and after a while asked again, "Then if I hire you, what is your teaching plan?"

"Mr. Hans, your Chinese is so good. Surely know that Chinese now also has standard pinyin. Miss Hannah is still young, and Mrs. Hans has never been exposed to Chinese before, so I will teach them to learn Chinese pinyin first, so that they can recognize words on their own as soon as possible. At the same time, they are taught the radicals and strokes of Chinese, so that they can master the basics of Chinese writing. At the same time, I will teach some phrases to explain Chinese grammar when teaching the above content. ”

Link speaks Chinese, but it is not clear how to teach. Zhang Yun showed self-confidence, and it seemed that he was the first to speak. He nodded and said, "What kind of textbook are you going to try?"

"If I get this job, I will ask my friends in China to send some children's textbooks from China. That kind of material is suitable for Miss Hannah, and also for Mrs. Hans's initial studies. ”

Link listened to her and only looked down at her resume. After reading it, he closed his resume, looked up and said, "Based on your situation, how much time can you have in class each week?"

"I don't have classes after four o'clock in the afternoon on Wednesdays, and there are classes on Thursday afternoons, so I have time on Wednesday nights. Also, I was free on the weekend. ”

Jessica has never found a suitable Chinese teacher because Fox has few who can do the job, and it is difficult to find a full-time one. They could have paid a lot of money, but they couldn't find a teacher who was willing to come to Fox specifically to teach two people.

And Hannah and Jessica don't have much time to study in normal times. Hannah, in particular, is going to school again, and when she comes home, she has to learn to draw with Alyssa. Link also didn't want her to run out of time to play. It's just right to find a part-time job.

Jessica was satisfied with this Zhang Yun, and Link couldn't say anything inappropriate about the other party. He finally asked, "Miss Zhang." Are you an international student, do you have permission to work in the U.S.?"

Zhang Yun heard him ask, knowing that the job was basically in hand, and hurriedly said, "Yes." I applied for a work-study program in the United States. ”

Link nodded and said, "That's good." You have a two-week trial period. The salary for the probationary period, according to Jessica. If you want to come to class, you can call in advance, and we can send a plane to Seattle to pick you up or contact Seattle's plane to send you to the class, and we will pay for the class. Salaries are settled weekly. After the probationary period ends, you can continue with the job if Jessica and Hannah are satisfied. Salaries can also be increased by 10%. Do you have any comments?"

"Of course not. Thank you for this opportunity. Zhang Yun said with a smile. "I'll sit down with my job. ”
