Chapter 955: The Family's Choice
"Yes, I went to Huaxia Country." After Alan Ron helped Jane to sit down, he stepped aside, made her a cup of coffee, then took the sugar cube jar, stopped his hand in the air, and asked, "Or three?" ”
"No, it's changed, Michelle said that the elderly are not suitable for eating too much sweet." Jane said.
"Oh, Michelle has always had a point." Alan Ron put down the jar and walked back with coffee, "When did Terry come here?" ”
Jane took her coffee and recalled with some distraction: "I don't have a good memory, it was about three days ago, why did you ask him?" That kid wouldn't be guilty of anything, would he? ”
"Not really." Alan Ron shrugged, "I saw him at the airport today. ”
"I let him go." Jane said.
"You let him go?" Alan was suddenly a little surprised, he sat down, and said lightly, "Didn't you always ignore these things about us?" ”
"Yes." Jane took a sip of coffee and said lightly, "Alan, you know, the reason why I divorced your father was because I didn't want to watch him fight for power and profit all day long, and he wore a mask to live with me every day. ”
"That's why you won't live with our three brothers." Alan Ron nodded, "Yes, I've always known that, but as a man in the Ron family, this is also a duty-bound thing. ”
"I can understand, so if I can not participate, I will not participate." Jane shifted to make herself sit comfortably, then paused, took a sip of her coffee, and then said lightly, "I see that you don't seem to be interested in these things, so I'm relieved that it seems." You've changed too. ”
Alan smiled self-deprecatingly: "People always change, especially when they are forced. ”
Jane closed her eyes again. Like an old man dozing off in the warm winter sun, he said slowly. "Terry has already told me about you."
"Oh?" Alan got up, poured himself a book of water, and asked, "What did Terry say?" ”
"This thing, anyway, is Dodge's wrong." Jane hesitated for a moment before then continued, "Dodge came to see me the day before yesterday. ”
"Oh, that's a miracle, I remember the last time he came. I think it was five years ago. ”
"Alan, I know you don't have a very good relationship with Dodge, but"
"However, with his eloquence, I must have said that this time my responsibility is not small, right?" Alan Ron interrupted Jane and said after taking a sip of water.
"Then you're wrong, Dodge didn't defend himself this time." Jane said.
"Really?" Alan Ron asked curiously, "What did he say?" ”
He said that this time he designed all the plans by himself, and he did think that you might die because of it. But he felt that if you could keep the glory and status of the Ron family because of your sacrifice alone, he would not regret it. ”
Alan Ron was stunned. In the end, he didn't get angry, just smiled and said lightly: "I don't regret it." If it was him who died, would he not regret it later? ”
Jane did not comment. Instead, he continued: "He also said that once the plan fails." Then you will definitely be fine, and you are likely to cooperate with the 32 Group because of this, and you will definitely come back to seek revenge on him, and at that time, he will be left with nothing, and even lose his life. ”
"It seems that he himself has a self-aware consciousness." Alan Ron commented.
"For him, this plan is the biggest gamble in his life, if you win, the Ron family will be able to keep the glory at your sacrifice, and if you lose, it will be a catastrophe for him, but for the Ron family, it is not a bad thing, at least you can come back alive now, presumably the cooperation with the other party is also very smooth, right?"
Hearing this, Alan Ron frowned, and then said, "This is what he said?" ”
"Yes!" Jane nodded, took a sip of coffee, put down the cup and looked at Alan quietly, "Seeing you coming, I guess what he said should have come true, right?" ”
Alan Ron nodded: "He was almost as expected, his damn perverted plan had failed miserably like never before, and he really had nothing left now." ”
"Alan, I know you hate him." Jane was silent for a moment before saying, "But you've won now, haven't you?" ”
"Do you think Dodge is a man who will admit defeat?" Alan Ron was also silent for a moment before asking rhetorically.
Jane frowned slightly: "You mean to say that Dodge still wants to have a plan?" ”
Alan smiled faintly: "I'm just saying that." ”
Jane breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Alan, I know that Dodge is good at planning, so you should be vigilant, but now that he has a bad reputation and has been dismissed from all positions, I am afraid it will be difficult to turn over again." ”
Alan Ron nodded, "Indeed." ”
"So, what are you going to do next?" Jane asked, "About the 32 Group?" ”
"Don't you want to worry about these things?" Alan Ron, said strangely.
"I don't care, but I'm ready to hand over all the shares in my hand to you." Jane smiled and said, "Just add my stake plus the 11% that Dodge gave me, and that's 19%, plus your 27%, and I'll let Terry give you 5% of the shares, and then your stake will be 51%, and no one will be able to shake your position." ”
"He gave you all his shares?" Alan Ron was surprised.
Jane nodded: "Yes, so, you believe he won't toss anything more now, right?" ”
Alan was silent for a long time, and then the corners of his mouth curved slightly, and he smiled slightly: "It's really not like his style." ”
"Alan, I'm old, you're all old, this country is suffering, we can't be sure when those terrifying monsters will run to our back garden again, you should all put aside your hatred for each other and face the difficulties of the future together."
Alan Ron smiled: "Jane, actually, I want to talk to you about this matter by the way." Something about those monsters. ”
"Those monsters?"
"yes, I know Monpegge almost broke into the last time with a Spectreclaw. But I now know of an absolutely safe place. Alan Ron said.
"Alan, your tone seems like you're trying to make me move?"
"Yes!" Alan Ron said. "It's too dangerous here, and as far as I know, even now, there may still be hundreds of Ghost Claw monsters still roaming around the homeland of the United States."
"Really?" Jane smiled slightly, "Alan, thank you for your concern, but I'm used to living here, and the security measures here are very good, I don't want to move." But of course, I'm interested, where do you want me to move to? ”
"Whatever, as long as it's far from the West Coast, any coast is fine." Alan Ron paused and said with some hesitation, "I remember you said that you have Chinese blood in you, right?" ”
"Yes, my grandmother was Chinese. From the Guangyue region of Huaxia, this has already been told to you. ”
"Very good, so, if you go to settle in Huaxia. How is it? Alan Ron said.
Jane was stunned for a moment, then smiled, shook her head and waved her hand: "Alan." Are you serious? ”
"I'm serious, you know. Now the situation in the world has changed dramatically, and Millican has become less secure and powerful. We need to find a safer place, and more suitable for our development, and Huaxia is undoubtedly a good choice, I even like a place over there, your ancestral place, Guangzhou-Guangdong Region, how about it? ”
"Alan." Jane looked at Alan Ron and shook her head again, "Ellen, do you know how old I am?" ”
"Eighty-two"
"Eighty-three years and nine months, Alan, I was born here, I love this land deeply, and now that I am old, I don't want to go to a strange place again, so, I appreciate your kindness, but I will not leave here."
"I'm just, just worried that the monsters will keep creeping up." Alan Ron hesitated for a moment, then said in a low voice, "The top-secret information I have obtained shows that the next beast tide is likely to be coming soon. ”
"The next beast tide? Alan, I know how powerful those monsters are, but I have a safe bunker here, and I won't have any problems. ”
Alan Ron sighed, "I know, however, the next beast tide may not be so simple. ”
"Alan, looking at your tone, it seems to be very pessimistic, could it be worse than this time?"
Alan Ron nodded: "I don't want to lie to you, in fact, this time is probably just a precursor, our satellites are in the Pacific Ocean, our previous territory, some satellite pictures taken on the Hawaiian Islands show that the Pacific Islands have basically been fully occupied by those monsters." ”
"Some zoologists and some senior experts in the field of ghostclaw monsters predict that it is likely that the second beast wave will come in less than five months, and then the cycle will probably continue to shorten until we have to face them every day."
Hearing this, Jian was silent, and after a while, asked, "Do the others know?" ”
"There are only a very few reliable people who know about this situation, and the government of the United States will not admit it, because this is bound to cause great panic, and even the whole world will be in turmoil and riots, and at that time, we may not even have a chance to escape."
Jane was silent, and after a while, she shook her head and said, "I heard Terry say that at least it can last for more than ten years." ”
"That was the judgment of a month ago, and now the situation has changed again." Alan Ron said, "The number of claw monsters in the sea has exploded, and during this time, zoologists predict that some of the large fish in the sea are almost all extinct, and so many clawed monsters, once they run out of food, there is only one way to go, and that is to land." ”
"And once you land, you taste the sweetness, then it's only a matter of time before you make a full-fledged landing."
"Will the Mi Kingdom perish?"
Alan Ron was silent for a moment.
Jane understood right away that perdition seemed inevitable.
"For how long?" Jane asked again.
"It depends, the government lasts for two or three years, and as for the people on this continent, maybe five years, maybe ten years, maybe they can live much longer, until one day there is nothing left to eat."
Hearing this, Jian smiled wryly: "If that's the case, does it make any difference where we move to?" ”
"Of course there is a difference, the last hope of mankind is in Huaxia, they have begun to build a new Great Wall, and the progress is extremely fast, once the new Great Wall is built, those ghostly claw monsters will be completely isolated, 10,000 steps back, even if it is another ten years, the new Great Wall will not be able to stop those monsters, and we have another larger project, organize human elites, retreat to the inland of the Huaxia Plateau, research shows that those monsters may not be able to adapt to that altitude, in addition, we will build some huge fortresses, Stop those monsters. ”
"That's why you let me go to Huaxia Kingdom?"
"Not bad!" Alan Ron nodded, "With the strength of our Ron family, we can mix anywhere, not to mention that I have now reached an agreement with the 32 Group." ”
"Dodge has done so much to them, and we went there, didn't we let people slaughter them? You're not worried about this? ”
Alan Ron nodded: "Of course, so we won't put all our eggs in one basket, there are also many big families in Huaxia Kingdom, and our ultimate goal is to go to the East Slavia or the Oran Kingdom, which is far away from the coastline, and it is not a problem to support it for thirty or fifty years, we use Huaxia Kingdom as a springboard, this is the purpose." ”
"Do you think they're fools? Will you be willing to be your springboard? ”
Alan Ron shook his head and said, "Of course not, so we have to pay a certain price." ”
"I heard that some of the group's core industries have been sold by you to 32 Group at a low price."
"This is the necessary price, but of course I kept a hand, the core technology was given to them, but some of them don't seem important, but in fact only we can manufacture things and parts, they have to find us, once they get up, they will have a certain dependence on us, the two sides still have to complement each other after all, and this is the means for us to protect ourselves."
"Of course, these are things in the future, and now I have a more important agreement to fulfill with the most powerful people in the 32 Group, and my value to them is not only these technical or economic interests, or maybe we can find the truth about these monsters, and solutions."
"Alan, it looks like I misjudged you before." Jane said.
"Huh?" Alan Ron looked puzzled.
"I used to think that you couldn't do anything big, you could only live a life in chaos, but now I have to admit that you are completely different, you are a responsible man, maybe the Ron Consortium is right when it is handed over to you." (To be continued......)
