315 Duke and Mr. Shandong
Robert didn't know about the theft of the paper, and when he saw his cousin Lubt coming, he was just a little helpless:
"Is the lawsuit settled?"
"Solved."
The monk who broke his mistress's thigh needs to pay compensation of five hundred oceans. Lublt bent down and gave his cousin a simple salute.
Robert walked over to the couch in the hall and sat down:
"You still need to spend a little bit of time on the work of the company."
The aristocracy does not need to work, they concentrate on the field of art, the pursuit of the ultimate meaning of life, do not know what is called the matter of the king of food, Lubut only remembers the days of pay, as for going to work, then I'm sorry, he doesn't have time.
But now the salary plays a huge role in him, and he has to grieve himself. He asked his cousin, saying,
"I still need three hundred for living expenses."
Robert shook his head:
"Only a hundred."
He reached into his pocket and pulled out a checkbook, which he had taken with him with a pen, and had probably guessed his cousin's intentions.
Lublt took the check and looked at it with some disappointment on his face:
"How is it Chinese money?"
At this point, one pound is worth two dollars, one dollar is worth one gram of gold, and one gram of gold is equivalent to a universal Chinese silver dollar.
So a hundred silver dollars was a little less than he thought.
Robert looked into his cousin's turquoise eyes with sea-blue eyes:
"Do you remember? We used to be poor for twenty pence. ”
Lubutt was reluctant to talk about these down-and-out pasts, and he said directly:
"Now we're older, stronger, and we can make money. I'll be able to return this money to you soon, you look at this. ”
Lublt happily handed a wad of newspapers to his cousin.
"I want to have this. The salary offered to me by the company should also be increased by three or five times. ”
The British Science and Technology Newspaper's paper on cardiogram technology was placed at the top, with a heavy capital word slogan, followed by the author, Lubt.
Robert reached out and took it, and he only looked at it for a few seconds before his pale face turned maroon, and he opened his mouth. Desperately breathe air. It's like a fish that is suddenly thrown to the shore.
Lubt was also taken aback, he immediately stood up and shouted:
"Marit. Hurry up, medicine, asthma is sick. ”
The waist was as fat as a big fish tank, and Robert's old maid deftly rushed over. He poured all the medicine from a small glass bottle into Robert's mouth and picked him up. Hit horizontally on the sofa.
Because the legs are too long, they stretch out on the outside of the sofa.
Lubutt half-knelt in front of the sofa, took his cousin's hand and said:
"Is it because I'm smart that you're so happy?"
He published papers on medicine. Since then, he has transformed from a talent in the liberal arts to a talent in practical science. That's why he got his cousin excited.
Robert's onset this time was a bit severe, and he didn't recover for five minutes, but today is not destined to be an ordinary day. The phone in the hall rang.
The maid, Marit, answered the phone. He said two words into the microphone of the phone, and suddenly screamed.
"Yes. Yes, oh, boil, my God! ”
Robert finally struggled to get up from the couch.
"Is the newspaper coming to us for trouble? Mr. Shandong made a move? ”
His old maid's body shook and trembled, and said:
"Duke, Mr. Duke has passed away, and his doctor's order is to ask one of the two young masters to inherit his title!"
Duke, the highest title among the British nobility, is equivalent to the prince of the feudal era in China.
They had a stingy distant uncle, the Duke, who was unwilling to even pay for their education.
Lubt stood up blankly:
"Yes, it's the Duke's uncle."
The old maid banged together with her fat hands, and her eyes were round:
"Yes, he's dead, God forbid!"
Not knowing whether she wanted God to bless this uncle to be safe in heaven, or God to forbid this uncle to finally die, the old maid drew a cross on her chest:
"There is such a day, ma'am!"
She laughed bitterly and trembled.
Robert had exhausted all his strength and sat up straight on the couch, clutching the British Science and Technology News tightly in his hands.
"It's over, it's over!"
The maid said with his cousin:
"We are developed. We've finally waited for this day. ”
Robert shook his head:
"We're done, we've offended Mr. Shandong."
The two masters and a servant looked at each other for a long time, and finally it was Lublt who spoke:
"What does Mr. Shandong have to do with the Duke?"
Robert lifted the newspaper with great difficulty, and said in a very dejected tone:
"You stole Mr. Shandong's papers."
Lublt winked at his lake-green eyes:
"The woman you're pursuing is just an ordinary Ping An Group translator, right? And the paper was published in the UK, so it's not easy for her to know. ”
In a sense, Dr. Robert and Miss Merry Creek still have similar thinking, and the only misunderstanding is that Robert thinks Miss Mercy will like hymns, so he asks his cousin to polish the letters. In fact, he struggled to add his scholarly views to his letters every time.
Zhang Meixi has to work hard to refine her views every time and let her assistant Xingzi reply.
Robert sneered:
Do you think an ordinary translator would have such profound insights? As such a good translator, can she not care about the British Science Newspaper? ”
Rubit continues to argue:
"Even if she knows, I've already used up the manuscript fee anyway, if she has to pursue it, I will wait a month, ah no, a month's salary to compensate her."
The old obese maid heard them speak and was puzzled:
"Is it about money? If the two young masters inherit the title of duke, then will you still be short of money? ”
Robert got up from the sofa, his two-meter-tall figure swayed a little, he took out his long legs, walked to the side of the coat rack to take off his hat and put it on his head:
"I must go out immediately, immediately go to Miss Meixi to explain, I hope the charm of our love still has some effect, don't alarm Mr. Shandong!"
Lublt also stood up:
"Is there anything more important now than the Duke's name? God, for what? ”
Robert's face was already pale, and his cheeks were tinged with an eerie flush:
"My princess must have written to me to communicate with me because she admired me, and wrote to me about the secrets of the Ping An Academy of Sciences, maybe Mr. Shandong's, if this matter is discovered by Mr. Shandong, the consequences must be very strict, and all of us will be discredited."
It is impossible for Mr. Shandong not to pay attention to the British Science Newspaper, so it is only a matter of time before the theft of the paper breaks out.
The old fat maid rushed up and stopped Robert, who had a pair of flexible eyes on her fat face:
"You need to send a telegram to the duke's lawyer now."
