In the middle of the night, poor old Ciano was tossing and turning in bed and had insomnia, and his wife asked him, "Is there something on your mind?" ”

Old Ziano nodded, and said the two key words "right to seize the army" and "300,000 tons" with palpitations, but the latter didn't react when he heard it.

"You think it's normal?" Old Chiano was taken aback, "A 20-year-old young man bluntly said in front of me that he should seize the military power - even if I am his father, he should not be so bold, he already has more than 300 brave men under his command, and the Second Air Force, and he wants to seize the military power again, what does he want to do?" Also, what do you know about 300,000 tons of steel? ”

Mrs. rolled her eyes: "Isn't it just 300,000 tons of steel......

"You know what!" Old Ciano shook his head and sighed, "Italy's annual steel volume is only about 1.2 million tons a year, and he wants to make 300,000 tons in one go, and he also said that in the future it will be expanded to 2 million tons and eat up all the construction material orders of the Ministry of Communications, don't you think this ambition is terrible?" ”

"I know, I know everything, that we in Calais are not only prime ministers, but also steel tycoons! In other words, his ideals are much more ambitious than you think, and a steel tycoon is far from satisfying his appetite. I went to see the United House, learned more about the group's plans and ideas, and even registered as a member – to buy a motorcycle when it was available! Madame laughed wildly, "But I didn't expect that his ideal could scare his father so much that he couldn't sleep at night!" You say, is the son too promising or the old man too unproductive? ”

Old Ziano was so blushing by this sentence that he turned pale.

"I really wasn't scared by 300,000 tons of steel, what happened to 300,000 tons? I usually read the "Youth Daily" to understand international politics and economy, and I also listen to the radio, and Germany is a defeated country with tens of millions of tons, right? Which well-known German steel company does not have an output of 300,000 tons or even 2 million tons? Mrs. Ziano pursed her lips dissatisfiedly, "Which of Britain, the United States, and France is not much stronger than Italy, and according to your careful thinking, when will Italy develop?" It's a shame that you talk about the powerful country every day. ”

This is a direct slap in the face, although the Ministry of Industry and Commerce is not under the control of Lao Ziano, he also feels hot in the face.

"Okay, okay, I'm kidding you...... It's a good thing that his son is promising, I don't think there is a young man in Italy who is more promising than him, and it seems that Calais basically can't run away as prime minister, so I don't know how many years it will take. Whether it's grasping military power or making steel, wouldn't it be better if you could help him stabilize it? I think he has a very good relationship with the leader, and he will not oppose the leader even if he captures the military power. If you don't want to be the prime minister, forget it, your son wants you to always help, right? Mrs. Ziano smiled, "Besides, courage can be cultivated, at the beginning you were shocked when you calculated that Calais would lose tens of millions of lire in the United Group, and felt that it was too unreliable, and now he plans to lose 100 million lire a year, and I haven't seen you unable to sleep or eat." Whether it is military power or steel tycoons, it is all a matter of slowness, don't you men often put a sentence on your lips, saying that Rome was not built in a day, and these goals are slowly achieved? Can you imagine this situation 2 years ago? ”

Old Chiano smiled awkwardly: "Madam, it's a pity that you don't go to politics." ”

"I'm not interested in politics, but if I can be 25 years younger, I will go to the radio station to compete for the chief anchor......" Mrs. Ziano sneered, "Do you know that Calais has become popular with two female anchors, and now attending a commercial event casually is 10,000 lira appearance fee, and the value is basically the same as that of Milan first-line models, so the two are still very reserved, and it is difficult to invite them, let alone accompany celebrities to dinner." ”

Hearing his wife talk about these gossips, old Ziano suddenly lost interest, and replied casually: "Oh...... Yes......"

The lady muttered dissatisfiedly, "Did I say you were listening?" ”

"Yes, yes......" said yes, old Chiano was obviously absent-minded.

"I asked Isabella, and she said that there were no girls in Calais's house outside, and there were very few people who visited...... But! Madame Ziano raised her voice, "These two anchor ladies have been in and out in certain afternoons and have dinner in the evening, and they seem to be very close, and according to what I have inquired from other sources, they have only eaten with Calais a few times. ”

“…… The son is their top boss, normal. Old Ziano replied in a daze, he didn't think there was anything wrong here, and now he felt a little sleepy.

"You don't care about your son's affairs at all, but I have asked about it, and both girls have publicly expressed that they want to pursue Calais, and he will not marry ......"

"What?" Old Ziano, who was drowsy, suddenly had a clever brain, "No, no! ”

"You don't know if you haven't seen it?"

"I've seen it, I've seen it at the United Motorcycle Milan starter, they're all very beautiful, but this family can't do it, just any one."

"Vivian's father was a Neapolitan banker, Adriana's father was a deputy mayor......"

"So no!" Old Chiano's eyes widened, and he said helplessly, "Do you know what the leader and I talked about yesterday? ”

"What did you say?"

"He said that Ida is 13 years old and will be able to get married in another 5-6 years, he half-jokingly and half-seriously told me to find a suitable time for the two children to meet and cultivate a relationship, and asked if it would be good for our two families to get married in the future?"

Ida is Mussolini's eldest daughter, and Mussolini's pearl, although she still lives in her hometown with her mother and has not received Rome, but everyone knows that Mussolini values this daughter very much, he is obviously not joking casually, and now it is Mrs. Ziano's turn to stare at her, and she said after a while: "How did you go back?" ”

"What can I say? I said it was up to the children themselves, and I didn't object to it myself - joke, could I object? Old Ciano said bitterly, "This matter can't be publicized yet, after the spread of the news, people still think that I am becoming inflammatory, my position will be very embarrassing, and it is not fair to Calais, a little girl who is only 13 years old, he doesn't know him, and he is still young, how can he fall in love?" But if he falls in love on other occasions and reaches the ears of the leader, it is difficult to guarantee that the latter will have other ideas, and once he is dissatisfied with Calais's behavior, he cannot say it directly, and it is difficult to guarantee that he will not suffer hardship. ”

Madame became nervous: "What should I do?" ”

"Fortunately, Calais is still more cautious, I see that he has not had any scandals, and it is finally more reassuring, and I can't talk to him about this sentence, alas...... Keep it for the leader to talk to him. Old Ciano sighed heavily, "Let Isabella pay attention to what needs to be known in time, so as not to be caught off guard." ”

This sudden second cold arrow made the couple not sleep well......
