Chapter 32: Still Too Young
When the attendants served snacks and tea, everyone opened up the conversation.
"The president didn't mention the compensation just now, so the lord shouldn't be a gratuitous contribution this time, right?" The questioner is on the right hand side of the big boss, his hair and beard are gray, but his skin is delicate and there are few wrinkles, so he gives people the impression of overwork and early twilight.
"The Clumber-Haytham family has spent a lot of time and resources on this design, and even if the Lord intends to make a pro bono contribution to the Grumman Group, we must give fair and reasonable compensation, but this compensation has not yet reached the amount that needs to be negotiated by the board of directors. As a rule, we will include this in the monthly report, and if you are interested, you can find it by looking at the notes at that time. The big boss replied very tactfully.
The questioner sighed, "Oh, the president is going to sell for two weeks?" ”
The big boss laughed and didn't say anything.
Then, the general said: "I heard earlier that the eldest son of the lord has been very intelligent since he was a child, and he can make firearms by hand at the age of eight, and at the age of twelve, he painted a generation of famous guns 'Freedom Exploits' with 'baked green' and presented it to the national hero General Castillier, becoming the only gift from the people that General Castillier received during his active service, but unfortunately this rising star of tomorrow later disappeared in the depths of the vast snowfield. Fortunately, the Lord's youngest son is also an outstanding young talent, although his previous performance has been unremarkable, but this time he was able to design a sniper rifle that we all admire, which is definitely a manifestation of extraordinary talent! What a blessing you have, Sir! ”
Is that really the case? Weiss's eyes widened.
After the national character face general spoke, the atmosphere at the table seemed to freeze for a moment.
Cheap Daddy first glanced at Weiss, and then said, "It's been several years since the eldest son's matter, so don't mention it." The young son has returned from this experience, and his mood has indeed matured a lot, and it is indeed gratifying to be able to make a difference in firearm design, but the military academy has never been ideal, which really bothers everyone. Having said that, the three sons of the general's family, who are good at managing and defending the country with martial arts, are all outstanding young talents, and that is really a blessing! ”
The other party smiled heartily: "Each has its own merits!" Each has its own merits! ”
"If you have children, whether they are good or bad, they will be raised as family heirs. Unlike me, just a baby daughter, who went to a military academy and became an officer, now comes back for a few days every month, and talks to us about weapons or training, even so, we still feel satisfied, but if she gets married one day, how many times can we see each other in a year? Well? The middle-aged man who said this, sitting next to the cheap dad to the left, he had brown hair and wheat skin, a high nose and broad lips, and a pair of deep and charming blue eyes, which was the absolute beauty of the nine directors.
The general with a head like a potato answered: "Hey, old Henry, if you are really reluctant, come to the door with a son-in-law!" Not to mention anything else, just based on your daughter's appearance and figure, the announcement of the son-in-law will go out, or in two days, Aocheng Railway Station will definitely be crowded with young guys who come to sign up! ”
The "most handsome director" shook his head and said, "Save it!" Even if I am willing to announce the recruitment of a son-in-law, how many people dare to provoke a female captain with a full fighting rank and a hot temper? Besides, with Octavier's character, only the extraordinary can control it. Since he is an extraordinary person, how can he be wronged? ”
Ouch hey! The beautiful officer in the rooftop garden turned out to be his daughter, named Octavier. Well...... It's a nice name.
Thinking of the superb appearance and figure of the female soldier, Weiss was indeed a little itchy, but when he thought of her admonition and warning, he suddenly felt a chill in his back. How much effort do you have to make up for those coursework in the military school? Belch...... That little beauty with a natural voice, which one of you is the daughter? General with a national character face? Potato heads? White-headed middle-aged man? Mean? Arrogant face?
Weiss looked around, it seemed that all of them were possible, and they didn't seem to be right.
"Potato Head" sneered: "That's easy to say! In the army, who is under the age of 30 and above the rank of captain, who is not an extraordinary person with unlimited potential? Among these young officers, the officers screened out the elder brother in the family, and cultivated the relationship well, and the probability of success should be more than seventy percent. ”
"The most handsome director" snorted with disgust: "Come on! I think it's better to go with the flow! Regardless of whether Octavil is married or married, when I am 100 years old, won't all the family property in my name be inherited by her? ”
"White-headed middle-aged" interjected: "It's okay for a woman to inherit her father's business, but old Henry, don't forget the three iron laws of the Grumman Group. When you pass away, if Ling Yuan returns to the group and runs the industry, we will definitely support it, but if Ling Yuan decides to stay in the army, then ...... We have the right to forcibly buy your property at a fair price! ”
The "most handsome director" had a straight face and frowned: "Don't worry, I will never cross these three iron laws, but by the time I pass away, you Loren may have already become a pile of ashes, why do you need to worry about this!" ”
"White-headed middle-aged" hummed: "Which of the two of us will live long, it's too early to say!" ”
The big boss faked coughing twice: "Okay, you two, do you have to slap each other at the same table every time you have fun?" ”
Both of them stopped talking, but the "potato head" looked happy as if he had picked up the money for nothing.
Looking at the "national character face", "good old man" and the fat vice president, they all have an expression that has nothing to do with themselves at this time.
The big boss turned to the cheap father: "By the way, Lord, I heard that Ling Lang went to the Fallen Snow Realm alone a while ago and killed a snow dump alone?" ”
At this time, the smile on the corner of the cheap father's mouth was clearly bitter: "Two hundred years ago, the ancestors set a precept that the heirs of the family must complete sixteen tests before becoming adults, the purpose is to exercise courage and hone the mind, and since then, the family has inherited this training for nine generations. Among the sixteen tests, it was the most difficult to kill Xue Zhen alone. Eighty-seven years ago, the heir to the family died at the time. Four years ago, the eldest son, Ze, went alone and has not been heard from since. I wanted to abolish this discipline at this point, lest my youngest son Long make the same mistake again and leave no heir in the family, but he insisted on going there, and he prayed every day. Luckily, the dragon made it back safely, otherwise I wouldn't know how to live......"
With these words, Weiss heard the true feelings of a father, and couldn't help but feel how ruthless fate was. If he hadn't passed through the possession by himself, he would have to suffer the pain of losing his son again!
When the love came, Wei Si said solemnly: "Father does not have to be sad, he has been tempered into steel, without such tempering, how can we overcome many difficulties, break through layers of obstacles, and take on the important task of revitalizing the family business?" ”
The words have been spoken, and seeing the surprised eyes of the cheap father, Weiss realized that he had "lost his words"! Now, isn't it the Grumman family, which is controlled by these directors in front of them, who are constantly poaching and suppressing the Clumber-Haysen family in an attempt to completely annex and absorb it? Aren't the difficulties to be overcome and the obstacles to overcome in order to revitalize the Clumber-Haysen family from the Grumman family, who are currently in power by these directors?
Weiss secretly said that it was not good, and looked around, and the directors present all looked at him with strange eyes, like a group of wolves with sharp teeth and claws, looking at a lamb who wanted to fight against fate with its tender horns.
