At the beginning of the twentieth century, the speed of transportation and logistics further developed, and the speed of trains and cruise ships was almost two or three times faster than in the previous 100 years. It is also the fastest means of transportation, airplanes, appeared. The speed at which the movement of goods and the movement of people is developing is something that everyone is happy about.

However, even more rapid than logistics is the flow of information, radio waves equal to the speed of light, and can circle the earth for several weeks in a second. Although sending telegrams also requires a unified cipher and translation process.

Radio broadcasting can achieve coverage within a range of 1,000 kilometers, and wired telephones can achieve real-time communication between the two sides.

In the early years of the information explosion, newspaper journalism flourished. In Shanghai, in the East, newspaper writers are paid 3 to 30 per 1,000 words, while ordinary workers in the same period are only paid 10 yuan a month.

The newspaper industry is hugely profitable, eliminating the assembly lines of copywriters, editors, printers, sales, and readers. One of the most important links is the investors of newspapers.

Each of the world's 300,000 scientific and technological workers has a copy, and the British Science Press is regarded as the standard for reading every morning at breakfast. They will also write angrily, hoping that their big research results can also be published, and if they can be published, this marks their victory over 99 percent of scientific and technological workers.

Newspaper editors are required to be PhD-level, and the most basic requirement is to read contributions from all over the world and then write corresponding reviews.

The boss behind such a high-grade "British Science Newspaper" is just a businessman full of copper smell. The businessman who owns the newspaper also owns The Sun, the newspaper with the largest circulation in Europe.

The Sun is keen to report all kinds of vulgar and ** news to attract low-end viewers. In the opinion of this boss, the British Science was not profitable, so he happily bid six million pounds and sold it to Duke Robert.

Most people read newspapers every day and are familiar with the various sections and contents of newspapers. But few people care about the boss behind the newspaper.

During the same period, in Northeast China, the newspapers with the largest circulation were all Japanese-owned. The marshals and young marshals couldn't see through the roots, and they happily read the newspaper every day.

The previous Duke was an elite man, and most of his accumulated fortune was spent by Robert in an instant. After Glaxo Pharmaceuticals and the British Science and Technology News arrived. Robert immediately possessed a deep sense of intellectual superiority.

His third target was Gray & Associates. Speaking of which, this law firm has a deep relationship with Robert.

A few years ago, the law firm sent a lawyer, Pauli, to Oriental Shanghai to look for Mr. Shandong, but Pauli, who was unfamiliar with the place and lacked professional knowledge, was deceived a lot.

Therefore, Gray Law Firm urgently added a doctor of pharmacy. It was Dr. Robert now. Since then, Robert has also become one of the people who is very close to Mr. Shandong.

At that time, Mr. Shandong communicated a lot with his assistant at the law firm, Mr. Thomas, and Robert often met with Thomas to help him deal with some problems.

In a way, Robert still has a nurturing affection for Thomas.

Mr. Shandong communicates with law firms mostly by telegram. Only a few of them are letters, and although they are scarce, Robert has also seen the letters of Mr. Shandong.

Then in Shanghai, when Robert and Zhang Meixi were communicating and discussing, Zhang Meixi asked Apricot to ghostwrite. So in Robert's consciousness, Mr. Shandong's handwriting and Miss Meixi's handwriting are completely different.

It is difficult to change a person's inherent thinking, and no one will directly think that Mr. Shandong, a big man in the scientific world, is the same person as a fifteen-year-old delicate lady.

It just so happened that Robert saw both handwritings, but in reality, even if he saw the same handwriting. He'll also be very simple to boil down the problem to. Miss Meixi is Mr. Shandong's translation assistant, so she will copy letters on behalf of Mr. Shandong.

As one of the most well-known law firms in London, Gray Law Firm is located in one of the busiest street buildings in London's Central Park neighborhood.

One of Robert's distant cousins, the one who almost took the duke's throne, was also the same two meters tall, but he had a large head, a long, thin neck, and a very smooth curved back. The shape is very similar to a famous dish often eaten by Shanghainese. Bean sprouts.

Bean Sprouts also works at Gray & Associates, where she is a trainee solicitor.

There are really not many nobles who come out to work. Because the nobles had a source of livelihood, they would also have at least three or five servants to take care of them. They are generally discerning and have a high ability to appreciate art. If he is asked to come out to work, he can only earn the same salary as a servant. This is something that no one can bear.

If there is no comparison, the cousin Bean Sprouts is also the best among the Duke's nephews, and compared to the Robert Lubt brothers, it is simply impossible to see. This is also one of the reasons why the Robert brothers were immediately knighted after their name was corrected.

Since Robert's third target was to acquire the law firm, which was close to Mr. Shandong, he immediately conducted a secret investigation. It turned out that he couldn't find the owner behind the house.

Robert thought about it, and he also knew a lot of insiders about this matter, so he could communicate with it. So holding a sick cat, I went to meet his cousin Bean Sprouts.

Bean Sprouts looked strangely at the sick cat with bandages in his arms and asked:

"What's going on?"

Robert said in a very relaxed tone:

"This cat has just undergone surgery, so I need to stay by its side twenty-four hours in case something unexpected happens."

Bean Sprouts felt that there was no possibility of inheriting the duke's throne anyway, and was happy to give this brother some compliments, so he said:

"You're a first-class genius doctor."

Robert was arranging the sick cat's hair with his hands, and the corners of his mouth were upturned:

"Of course, I'll also be a good lawyer boss."

Bean sprouts asked hesitantly:

"You want to buy this law firm?"

Robb nodded to the head:

"Of course."

Bean sprouts immediately stood as straight as possible before saying:

"Lord Duke, if there is anything you can do, please just give your orders."

Robert looked at the bean sprouts with large, deep, ice-blue eyes:

"Yes, I need your job, you have to help me find out who the owner of this law firm is?"

Bean sprouts pondered for a moment before saying:

"Of course I can't find out, but I think the silent Thomas must know."

Count Robert's ice-blue eyes were as cold as if he was about to freeze the bean sprouts. In his mind, Thomas is a backboarder.

At the beginning, he could be said to have helped Thomas a lot, but after Lubt posted the article, Thomas immediately took a merciless action to kill him.

Later, although the situation changed, Thomas began to work on the restoration of his title.

But for Robert, what he remembers more clearly are the injuries.
