Chapter 42: Trust
“…… Why hasn't it arrived yet? ”
At the exit of the Berlin train station, John waited a little anxiously.
The snowflakes were still falling in the sky, and three days of heavy snow had turned Berlin into a white world. But for John, who was going to pick up his grandfather at the station, the weather was too bad, the carriage couldn't run fast and was so cold that the journey of less than an hour ran for two hours!
At John's side, Brister was also a little anxious.
"Woo......"
A shrill whistle sounded, and the two men reflexively looked west, their faces showing joy at the same time.
It's finally here!
The train from Hamburg clanged into the Berlin train station, and while John and them were anxiously waiting, an old man with a silver head slowly walked out with the support of a young man, and John immediately rushed over when he saw it: "Grandpa, you have finally arrived!" ”
"What's the panic? Be careful! ”
Seeing John rushing over and almost falling, old Huntelaar frowned and reprimanded in a low voice.
However, although the old man was scolding and frowning at this time, everyone around him could see that the joy in his eyes when he saw John seemed to be gone, and he immediately became bright.
"Grandpa, the ground is slippery, you must be careful."
After standing firmly, John hurriedly took over Henry's class, carefully supported old Huntelaar, and said with a smile. He himself did not expect that the moment he saw old Huntelaar, his mood would be so excited and excited. I couldn't help but run over.
"Hi John, long time no see."
Just when John only had his grandfather in his eyes, an excited voice came from the side, and he quickly turned his head to look. Joshua and his little henchmen were standing behind him, looking at him with a smile on his face.
Carefully let go of his grandfather first, John turned around and happily hugged Joshua hard, and then couldn't help but quip: "Joshua, I thought you would definitely lose some weight after running all the way, but I didn't expect to be fat?" That's at least ten pounds more than when you came last year, right? ”
"Uh......"
That's what John said. Joshua suddenly smiled wryly.
In fact, he did lose some weight along the way, at least four or five pounds, but the point is that he has gained nearly twenty pounds in the past year, and the whole person has become thicker! was originally a fairly handsome young man, but now Yifu's temperament is more and more stable. It's quite a bit like his father's old stone.
"Ahem! Cough! ”
As soon as the two chatted, the old and steady old Huntelaar had already seen Brister standing next to him with a smile, coughed lightly twice and then said in a deep voice: "John, this gentleman is ......"
"Oh, grandfather, this is Mr. Brister, whom I mentioned in my letter! Mr. Brister, is this my grandfather and my good friend Joshua? Mr. Stone. ”
Seeing that his grandfather asked, John hurriedly introduced to everyone.
"Nice to meet you. Mr! ”
"Welcome to Berlin, Mr. Huntelaar, Mr. Stone."
Everyone greeted each other very politely. Joshua and Brister, in particular, shook hands with extra force, as if they were old friends reunited, with warm smiles on their faces.
After greeting each other for a while, Brister smiled and said, "Everyone, it's been hard along the way. I know there's a nice French restaurant nearby, so how about we go have lunch first? It's not a good place to talk! ”
Joshua was self-conscious. His eyes turned to old Huntelaar and John.
After a slight hesitation, Old Huntelaar shook his head slightly apologetically and said, "Thank you for the invitation." Dear Mr. Brister, but I'm really tired along the way, and I'm afraid it would be a bit rude to barely pass, so ......"
"I think so."
Seeing that Mr. Brister was a little disappointed, Joshua hurriedly interjected at this time and smiled: "Mr. Huntelaar is indeed a little tired, it would be good to go back and rest earlier, but since Mr. Brister has a warm appointment, how about we go together?" It just so happens that we can also talk about the factory first! ”
"Yes, of course!"
Brister was overjoyed when he heard this, and naturally agreed in a hurry.
When I talked to John earlier, Brister already knew about Joshua's existence, and also understood that it was not old Huntelaar who could really call the shots in the construction of the factory, but this Joshua? Mr. Stone, therefore, served his purpose by hearing that he was willing to go.
Seeing the two chatting warmly, old Huntelaar's brows wrinkled unnoticedly, but he didn't say anything.
John, of course, didn't care, he smiled, pulled Joshua aside and whispered a few words, patted him lightly on the shoulder, and returned to old Huntelaar's side. He had just told Joshua about his plans, and Joshua agreed, and everyone would come out again when the snow stopped.
It was too cold, so we walked out of the train station after a pleasant greeting, but before they got into the carriage, Brister walked up to John and old Huntelaar, and said with a smile: "Two gentlemen, it's a pity that we can't have a good chat together today, but next week Baron Cole and I will hold a ball to welcome you, please both of you must come, and I will send the invitation to the house later!" ”
"Okay, we'll definitely go."
Before John could react, old Huntelaar had already smiled and nodded in agreement.
After a few moments, the group split into two groups, with Joshua following Brister away, while John helped his grandfather into a carriage and drove in the direction of the family......
"Grandpa, what have you been watching me do?"
After getting in the car, old Huntelaar kept looking John up and down, which made him feel a little inexplicable, and couldn't help but ask with a smile.
Old Huntelaar smiled slightly, and said with relief: "Hehe, the two of us haven't seen each other for more than a year, and I was a little surprised to see you today, hehe, it seems that John, you seem to be a lot stronger?" ”
"Huh? Well, the weight is gained quite a bit. ”
John shrugged his shoulders and smiled slightly smugly.
He has inherited good enough genes in his life, and his height has reached about 1.85 meters at the age of fifteen or sixteen, but from the recent situation, it is obvious that he has basically stopped breeding, and even if he still has the potential, he will grow two or three centimeters taller at most. But as he grew older, John's weight continued to increase, coupled with his usual attention to nutrition and regular exercise, his originally thin body bones slowly became a little fleshy......
"John."
After the two chatted for a while, Old Huntelaar's expression suddenly became solemn, and he said in a deep voice, "Do you really plan to leave all the matters of cooperation with that Mr. Brister to Joshua?" ”
"Yes, Joshua is the manager of the Flying Pigeon Company, isn't it appropriate for him to handle it?"
To Old Huntelaal's question, John subconsciously answered.
Since the establishment of the two factories, John has rarely asked, and he has been to the bicycle factory a few times, but the building block factory has not been built when he left New York, and he has never been to it once, and as for the business situation, he basically does not ask, but he will look at Joshua's report 21 every once in a while.
Hearing John's answer, old Huntelaar's brows immediately furrowed, and he immediately asked: "As the majority shareholder of the factory, you don't know much about your own industry, and you basically don't even participate in the important decision to set up a branch factory, aren't you worried?" ”
"Worried about what?"
Hearing this, John was slightly stunned, his eyes widened in confusion, and then he was shocked, and hurriedly asked, "Grandpa, is there something wrong with the two factories?" ”
"Not really."
Old Huntelaar glanced at John, shook his head and said meaningfully: "After all, I have specially sent someone to supervise finances and management, and there will be no major problems at present." But...... John, I hope you can remember that in this world, the relationship between people will eventually change, and when there are enough benefits to be obtained, anything can happen, so you can always truly believe in yourself! ”
"Huh?!"
After hearing this, John was stunned for a moment, and his eyes widened. (To be continued)
