Audrey. Hepburn's father's name was Joseph. Victor. Anthony. Hepburn Roston.

Roston was his original surname, and Hepburn was the surname of one of his relatives, which dates back centuries to the history of Scotland and Ireland, and Roston, who thought it was old and noble, changed his surname to Hepburn-Roston.

In addition to being Hepburn's Lori father, Mr. Hepburn-Roston was a banker, a hardcore supporter of German National Socialism, although he was an Englishman.

Look up and down at the slim Audrey. Hepburn, Hepburn-Rolston recognized at a glance that the white dress her daughter was wearing was made of fine silk material, and she was wearing shining pearl earrings in both ears, her face was ruddy, her skin was smooth and full, and there was a relaxed and happy look between her eyebrows and eyes, which was enough to see that her daughter had lived a very prosperous life here.

"Audrey, you're taller than the last time I saw you." Hepburn Roston said, putting his hands on his daughter's shoulders.

Hepburn Lori stretched out the little thumb of her right hand, measured it to her father and said, "I just measured it the day before yesterday, and I've grown so much taller." ”

"Your mother and I want you to grow not only in height, but also in knowledge."

"Audrey has always done her homework well, she went to the best ballet school in Berlin, you don't have to worry about her growing up here." Chen Dao said.

Mr. Hepburn-Roston said gratefully: "I can see that she is living happily here, and I really don't know what words to use to thank you." ”

Goering walked up to him and smiled and soothed him.

"You have traveled far and wide for the cause of national socialism, and you have rarely been reunited with your family several times a year. It's only natural that we take care of Miss Hepburn for you. ”

Hepburn-Roston thanked the Goerings and Chen Dao again and again. Said hello to Margaret again. The crowd then sat on the couch and chatted from all over the world.

The conversation soon shifted to Hepburn Lori.

Hepburn took his father's arm and chattered about his happy life at Karin Manor.

There are the kind Goering couples, including the lovely little Ida, the sister Margaret who often comes to visit the house, and the very, very good storyteller and very, very good at cooking "weird horses" Heinz.

Snacks that can never be eaten, beautiful clothes that never repeat styles, and so on and so forth, all of which are spliced together into the colorful, kaleidoscopic life of Karin Manor.

Although it is not the first time that I have heard my daughter show off her life. Hepburn-Roston still listened to it with relish.

"Remember to think more about others"

"Don't be vain, be plain."

"Remember to be punctual."

Hepburn Roston listened and taught her daughter how to behave in the world

After a hearty lunch, the women went back to their rooms to take a nap, but Chen Dao and the three of them went up to Goering's study on the second floor.

"I've already chosen a location for my head office in Amsterdam, which is currently being renovated and recruited, most of whom are veterans I know in the banking world. At the moment, the main issue is funding, both the most basic reserves and the funds needed to open a business."

Hepburn-Roston gushes about his preparations to Goering and Chen Dao. It took five minutes.

"You don't have to worry about funding, here is half a million pounds. You take it first and prepare for the opening. Goering handed Hepburn-Roston a check.

Hepburn Rolston glanced at the amount of the cheque and looked at the bank where the cheque was held, Barclays Bank of England.

When Hepburn-Rosten carefully put the cheque into his wallet and put it in his bosom, Goering continued: "You don't have to worry about the bank's reserves at all, I will inject ten million marks in the early stage of the opening." When you open a branch in Germany, many of my friends will also deposit money with the bank, all of which are very large. And I now have at least 10 projects that need to be borrowed from the bank, so you don't have to worry about the bank running out of business. ”

Hepburn-Roston said: "I am confident in Your Excellency's commitment and I am not worried about the business side of things. If all goes well, our bank will be open in September. ”

Chen Dao listened silently to the two of them talking about the new business of the Sauron Group, and suddenly asked, "What is the progress of the other thing I asked you to do?" ”

Goering's eyelids instantly drooped, and his radiant face became gloomy.

Hepburn Roston, keenly aware of the change in Goering's face, sat up straight, and then said, "I've been talking to Davy. Root. Mr. Gurion got in touch and he promised to come to Germany to meet you at a time you could arrange. ”

Chen Dao's face couldn't tell whether he was happy or annoyed, but said lightly: "Thank you for your help, when I book a time and place, I will ask you to tell Mr. Gurion." ”

The three chatted for a few more minutes, and Hepburn-Roston took the initiative to leave, leaving only Goering and Chen Dao in the study.

"Why do you want to have anything to do with the Jews, don't you know that the Jews are an inferior people and must be exterminated? If you let the Führer know that you are secretly in contact with the Jews, your future will be ruined. Goering said with a calm face.

"Elimination? How to exterminate? Was it with poison gas or with a machine gun? It's the forties of the twentieth century, can you not always think like the barbarians of 2,000 years ago?

I have said many times that the essence of politics is to make our friends more and our enemies fewer, and that if you always think in this barbarian way, it will only make us have fewer and fewer friends, and then Germany will have fewer and fewer friends, and more and more enemies. ”

"Hmph, you can say anything to me, I won't expose you. The point is on the Führer, you can't convince the Führer, you can't do anything. Goering said disapprovingly.

"That's because now it's not necessary, and if it were necessary, you think I wouldn't go to the Führer?"

Goering's eyes widened instantly, pointed to Chen Dao's nose and said, "I warn you, don't do stupid things. And don't go to the Führer and talk about your idealism. ”

"Wrong. I've always been a pragmatist. The Jews have quite a lot of capital power in this world. It would be better for us to draw this great force over to our side and use it to contribute to the revival of Germany, rather than pushing it over to the enemy's side. ”

"Depriving the Jews of all their assets and leaving them with nothing is the greatest contribution to Germany."

"No, no, no, your style of doing things is too simple and crude, and there is no beauty at all. If we can harness the power of the Jews, it will become a counterpoint to the USSR. A weapon against the United States, and an accelerator for us to accumulate wealth. I cannot afford to see such a mighty force being wasted, and we must get it in our hands before the Führer's final solution is executed. Chen Dao said.

"What do you want to do?" When Goering heard Chen say that the Jews were accelerators for accumulating wealth, his spirits immediately perked up, "Let them be free workers? Work for our factory for free? ”

"There are many ways to do this, but in any case we always have to convince the Führer first, and I think it is necessary for us to go to the Führer first, test the Führer's attitude, and then develop a strategy. In short, we cannot afford to watch such a large sum of precious wealth be lost before our eyes. ”

Goering thought about it. I feel that this is a major challenge to my business literacy.

In front of Chen Dao, he must maintain his image as the god of business. Chen Dao can't be allowed to look down on himself.

"Well, we'll go to the Führer in the afternoon, and in front of the Führer, you see how I look at my eyes, and don't talk nonsense, especially about the Jews." Goering admonished.

Two hours later, Chen Dao and Goering sent Margaret back to the Chancellery to visit Hitler.

Hitler was particularly pleased to see Goering and Chen Dao.

"Margaret's complexion is much better than before she went to Karin Manor, is it because she saw Heinz?" Hitler quipped about Margaret and Chen Dao.

"Heinz told me about a Harry. Potter's story is very interesting. Unfortunately, Heinz is very busy, and this story is so long, I only heard the beginning of one story today, and I don't know when it will take to hear him tell the whole story? Margaret said.

"Harry. What is Potter? The hero of the story? Hitler asked curiously, seeing that Margaret was full of regret.

Receiving an affirmative answer, Hitler continued: "Let Heinz write this story when he has time, and we will share it together." ”

Unable to resist Hitler and Margaret's request, Chen Dao had to reluctantly agree.

After a few more small talks, Hitler asked Margaret to inform the butler to prepare dinner.

When Margaret left, the three entered Hitler's office, and Göring began to report.

"The number of Jews in the ghetto in Warsaw has reached nearly 500,000, and the number of concentration camps in Auschwitz has reached 30, more than enough for Jews from all over Europe. I think it's time to make a final decision on the Final Solution. Goering said.

"In this matter, our allies will fully cooperate with us and send all those rats and moths to Poland. Herman, you're very productive, and I'm very pleased. What advice do you have for Final Solution? Hitler asked.

"I think we should follow the original plan and exile them to the island of Madagascar and let them fend for themselves on the island." Goering said without thinking.

As Göring's old partner, Chen Dao heard that Göring's words were insincere, but was just testing Hitler's reaction, so he sat aside and watched coldly, waiting to see Sitler's answer.

"Madagascar was just our original plan, it was so far away, and there were so many Jews, about 11 million people in Europe, that even a simple exile would have cost a lot.

Heydrich of the SS convened a meeting last month, and the conclusion of the meeting was that it was still more economical to exterminate the Jews from the top.

Polish Governor Hans. Frank believed that the biggest problem we faced in the occupied territories of Poland was the black market trade.

He felt that killing the local Jews was the best way to solve the problem of the black market.

Jews in Poland don't need to be transported elsewhere, and we can easily settle Jews in Poland on the spot, and Jews from other countries in Europe can also be transported to concentration camps in Poland to settle in concentrations. Herman, what do you think about this? Hitler asked.

"Are all the people in the Polish Governor's House idiots? Hans. Did that guy Frank cheat on his J.D. degree? How could such a childish and ridiculous suggestion be made? Chen Dao's cold voice sounded beside Goering, and it sounded particularly harsh.

Hitler rubbed his trembling left hand and turned his head to look at Chen Dao.

"Heinz, you have to give me a proper reason for launching a personal attack on our Polish governor in front of me?"

"To call him an idiot, to call him childish and ridiculous is already to give him face, if the Jews are dealt with according to his advice, he will be a German sinner in my eyes, and I will not hesitate to go to Warsaw to assassinate him and kill this sinner who tramples on German honor.

Why, you ask? The answer is very simple, the times are different, the objects are different, and the way of doing things must also be different, and now is not the era of backward communication in the Age of Discovery, and the Jews are not the Indians of the Americas. If we follow the idiot Frank's suggestion to commit genocide for the ridiculous reason of stopping the black market trade. It won't be long before this scandal spreads around the world, and our children and grandchildren will be disgraced by it.

There is an old proverb in the East that says if you don't know unless you don't know it. As long as we do bad things, sooner or later they will be exposed, especially in the modern era of advanced communications. ”

Goering naturally didn't turn his elbow outward, especially when he heard Chen Dao attack Hans, who he had always looked at unpleasantly. Frank Times.

"Frank's advice must not be listened to, I have known him for twenty years, and I have never heard him say a single suggestion that is good for our party. It is ridiculous to look at Poland today, where partisans, black markets are rampant, and opportunists are rampant, and he, as governor of Poland, does not reflect on his own incompetence, but instead puts the blame on the Jews. ”

"Führer, I just want to say that it is very difficult for a person or a country to gain a good reputation, and it takes perseverance, but it is very simple to gain the notoriety that everyone shouts about, and if we do what Frank suggests, our children and grandchildren will never be able to hold their heads up in front of the world."

Hitler reacted to Chen Dao and Goering's impassioned statements with a cold face, saying with a blank face: "It is easy to accuse others, but if you are put in his place, you may not do as well as him." What would you do with the Jews if it were you? ”

"It's simple, according to the original plan, to exile them, and it will be exiled without spending a penny. Before exile, they would have created countless profits for us; After the exile, they will also generate countless profits for us. It's just that to achieve the goal, we need a good Polish governor. It's a pity that if it's Hans. In Frank's words, even the best plan can turn into a joke or a scandal in his hands. Chen Dao said.

"Oh?" Hitler asked movingly: "What are your plans?" Tell me about it. If your plan is really in the interests of Germany, I will appoint you as Governor-General of Poland. (To be continued......)
