Chapter 213: The Last Remnant
Soon after the investigation began, with the help of Ash, the "shadows" of the Lan Industrial Group soon discovered that it was a CIA East Asia leader who was secretly investigating Lan Jiawei, and this person in charge was a close confidant of Augustus, a former Texas consortium think tank.
So an "accident" was staged in Tokyo, Japan, when the person in charge was hit and killed by a car without a license plate when he was shopping and walking out of the supermarket.
Although the CIA conducted an in-depth investigation into the accident, the perpetrators were already missing, and no surveillance equipment had recorded them, making the case a mystery.
Because the person in charge knew that Lan Jiawei had his own power in various institutions in the United States, he did everything in a one-line connection, and some of the "evidence" left behind disappeared after he had an accident, and the investigation against Lan Jiawei came to an end.
But this incident made Lan Jiawei's heart sound the alarm bell, and he arranged for some of his secret forces to start investigating the remnants of the former Texas consortium in the American power department.
"Master, Augustus should have a relevant list, we haven't been to his former residence to search, I think we should go and see, maybe there will be a harvest"
"yes, I think I'm too soft-hearted sometimes, his widow and children still live in that house, I think I can make a financial crisis for her and let her move"
Under Ash's operation, Augustus's widow, who was fond of stock trading, soon became financially bankrupt due to heavy losses, and had to sell her house to pay off the bank loan.
Of course, it was Lan Jiawei who took over the estate, but he asked Peggy to come forward and buy it in her name.
"Ash, has it been analyzed, where may this manor hide relevant information?"
"There's a secret basement in the back garden, and the switch should be camouflaged in the tool room"
Prompted, Lan Jiawei entered the tool room, which on the surface was no different from any other tool room in the manor. But he soon found a button disguised as a mechanical switch.
"That's it," muttered to himself, and after flipping the switch, Lan Jiawei turned to the back garden.
A sculpture pedestal in the garden had been opened to form a small door, and upon entering, Lan Jiawei whistled.
"So many dollars, and gold. Augustus is a wise man who can make money, and it seems that he only trusts himself, and does not tell his wife the secret", as if unceremoniously putting all the valuable things in the ring. Lan Jiawei began to look for the most important list.
"Here", the covert button is no different from the lice on the top of the bald man's head for Lan Jiawei, who is good at finding all kinds of traces, and when he opens a button again, a deeper basement appears.
"The private defense system is really well done, it can almost defend against ordinary wars here"
The lower floor of the basement is a completely reinforced concrete structure, quite thick, and the dollars and gold in it exceed the previous floor. This is one of the retreats that Augustus prepared for himself, and of course this is all cheaper for Lan Jiawei.
"Well, this is it", finding a desk. And after opening it, Lan Jiawei found a list of good places to protect with cowhide coats.
Ash quickly analyzed: "Master, most of them disappeared in the business war, and a small number of them are hidden in government agencies in various parts of the United States and other countries and regions. And it's all key sectors"
Lan Jiawei was too lazy to deal with the next thing personally, and after handing over the list to Jin Xiuzhi, the former agent began to arrange for all of Lan Jiawei's forces to start cleaning up.
Every day there are countless accidents in the world. Therefore, the accidental death of some people did not attract much attention, and the last remnants of the Texas consortium finally disappeared, which also made Lan Jiawei feel like he had pulled out a thorn in his body, and his whole body was relaxed.
Because she can't fly on Earth, Niel will often stay in the small world to satisfy her desire to fly, which has completely become a planet, and is very similar to Earth.
Lan Jiawei and his wife, Nier, Sanniang, Zhu Qing, etc. are now in the small world, so there is no need to have any scruples when speaking, "My dear, the small world seems to evolve according to the environment of its master, you see that those animals and plants are only found on the earth."
Looking at his wife standing in the air like a fairy, Lan Jiawei said gently: "Yes, it's a pity that the small world is not as safe as the ancient planet, and the survival of the master determines its survival, not the best way to retreat."
"Still not satisfied? This kind of adventure is only for you", Zhu Qing rolled her eyes
"You're not bad, my god of fire", Lan Jiawei smiled
Among these people, only Hu Sanniang couldn't fly, so Lan Jiawei hugged her waist and flew in the air to enjoy the beauty of the small world, while Zhu Qing had transformed into a phoenix and followed everyone.
"The submarine base is safe, waiting for us.... When we're about to die, where will we put the magic tower? Chiyo Tachibana, whose realm is getting higher and higher, has gradually realized another realm, but she, like Lan Jiawei, controls herself and doesn't want to leave the beautiful real world.
"Besides, maybe there will be great children in our offspring"
Because I haven't thought about how to use the small world, so Lan Jiawei has been herding sheep by its independent development, today's small world is like the earth in ancient times, all kinds of legendary animals and plants began to come out, but if there is no external force, it is impossible to appear intelligent creatures, Lan Jiawei does not want to do that, like this pure natural scene.
The ancient planet is their retreat, and the small world is their amusement park, Lan Jiawei's children are occasionally brought in, but the children need to learn and communicate with each other, Lan Jiawei and others don't think that the ancient planet and small world that are now sparsely populated are suitable for children, and can only be used as an alternative after what crisis may occur on the earth.
The three girls who followed their teachers from Adel Planet, Angeli, Paulie, and Veretta, after language training, have left Tang City to live a normal life as children, and their identities are all the official identities that Lan Jiawei spent a lot of money to buy.
Although there is a difference in age, Ruowen, Ruoya, Ruoyi, etc. have a good impression of these three lovely girls and become friends, and after their parents explained without concealment, they are very sympathetic to the plight of Angeli and others, and help them in many living habits on the earth.
This situation makes Chiyo often smile, just like Lan Ma used to smile when she watched Lan Jiawei and Chiyo together, which made Lan Jiawei often speechless.
While the Blue family was living comfortably, the Blue Line Alliance had gradually become one of the world's top organizations, interfering in politics overtly or covertly.
According to the rules, Greens should be followed by a Republican as president, which is conducive to the balance of interests of all parties, but due to the existence of the Blue Line coalition and Greens's super high approval rating over the years, polls around the country show that the vast majority of the Democratic Party is likely to be re-elected president, and the new presidential candidate is the governor of Western Oregon, named Svensson? Von Eris.
This is a guy who has received a lot of private "sponsorship" from Lan Jiawei since the mayor of the town, and Svensson's relationship with Lan Jiawei is no worse than that of Greens, and Oregon's economy has also developed rapidly after some companies in the Lan Industrial Group have entered, which has made Svensson popular as governor.
Although Lan Jiawei himself did not care, everyone else was watching this presidential election, and the American Coast Satellite TV was on Svensson's side, giving the presidential candidate the help of one of the biggest propaganda mouthpieces in the United States at present.
The eastern and southern parts of the United States have been infiltrated by the California consortium since the last corporate war, so there is almost no suspense in this presidential election.
But to Lan Jiawei's surprise, it was a request made by Helen, "BOSS, I plan to resign and join Svensson's campaign, in fact, I have been interested in politics since I was a child, and I think now is the time"
"Helen, are you really going to do this? Have you thought it through? You have to know that you will lose all the shares in Lan's Industrial Group and Coastal Media", although he was surprised, Lan Jiawei now has a lot of talent in his hands, and he doesn't care very much.
"Yes, BOSS, as the Lan's Industrial Group gets bigger and bigger, I feel that my ability can't keep up, and Coast Media has reached a bottleneck, so I should change my brain"
"Alright then, Helen, I'll personally buy all the equity in your hands, do you have any recommendations?" Looking at Helen on the video call, Lan Jiawei remembered his experience over the years and felt a little emotional.
"BOSS, don't you think Zenia is very powerful? I don't know where you found her, but since she entered Coast TV, she has been constantly creative, like a burning flame, constantly shining"
Zenia was the fire mage among the first orphans, Hispanic. These orphans have been cultivated by Ash through terminals, and their knowledge and perseverance are stronger than many regular college graduates, and their IQ is quite outstanding due to the help of Moon Spring. Zenya belongs to the category of high IQ, and it is easy to get multiple doctorates after entering society.
"Zenia is good, I will think about it, you arrange the follow-up things first, I wish you success"
"Thank you, JAVY, you are a magical boss, it is my honor to be able to do things for you"
Neither of them would have imagined that Helen, who had taken the political line, would eventually become the first female president in American history and serve three consecutive terms.
After consulting with his wife and others, Lan Jiawei went to San Francisco, where the estate had been expanded to incorporate the two surrounding estates and transform them.
"Quenya, is your son's girlfriend okay?" After getting out of the car, Lan Jiawei asked about his beautiful housekeeper, because of the "nutrient solution", this official family has always been so dignified and beautiful, without the slightest trace of aging.
"Sir, thank you for your help, the club member who harassed her has gone to the prison", although Chiyo didn't plan to have another child, but Nier, Sanniang, and Zhu Qing recently gave birth to another child, and they all took it with them, so after speaking, Kunya began to arrange for people to take care of the child.
"What's this, you are my family, there is no difference between moving you and moving me, don't be so polite in the future"
"Okay, sir", Kunya can be said to be one of Lan Jiawei's diehards who did not sign a contract, and she has been under this umbrella for many years, which makes her cherish it very much, work diligently, and already have the level of a top butler. (To be continued.) )
