"When will the tickets for the recent trip to the United States go on sale? I might be going to the United States. ”

"If you go to New York, there will be a trip on June 14th, and a trip on June 21st, and it will be the Genoa...... "Enzo smiled," Enzo smiled, "but the Italian company ships are not large, the largest Genoa is only 20,000 tons, and the fastest speed is just over 20 knots, and the larger, more luxurious, and faster Augustus is under construction, do you want to change to a British or French ship?" This is more worthy of your identity. ”

"No, just the Genoa."

"But I remember you said you were going to take Miss Ida with you......"

"......Forehead" Contini scratched his scalp, suddenly remembered that there was indeed such a thing, and wanted to habitually wave his hand and say forget it, but suddenly came to his senses and hurriedly said, "It doesn't matter, I'll take her away." ”

"But the school hasn't started summer vacation yet!"

"That's not a problem...... "Contini smiled, "Say hi to the school and ask them to arrange the exam for Ida in advance...... Or make up the exam after you come back, if it doesn't work, let Ida fill in the score casually, and score as many points as you want! ”

Enzo looked at Contini with a black line on his face: can you still read like this?

"Why does she read so many books? Do you want to be in politics or do you want to be academic? It's good to have enough knowledge, the important thing is vision and mind, going to the United States to see for 2 months is better than studying in the classroom for 2 years! Besides, it's just a few days less, and if you don't take the exam, even if you don't study in vain this semester? There is no such rigid reason! You see, I've been so busy this semester that I haven't been to school for a day, and it doesn't delay me from doing academic research and doing business. A lot of people study hard in school? Don't go to the flower and drink anyway! For example......

I just wanted to pull out the name of Bo Ti, but then I thought it was wrong: although Bo Ji Gongzi is idle and idle in reading, he is serious and persistent in flying, and his consciousness of hard training is no less than that of regular soldiers, and he has long forgotten what it is to spend all his time drinking, and even the old pilots are full of praise for this encouragement, and he also pesters Goering all day long to ask for advice on aerial fighting techniques and related stunts, but it is Contini himself who plays flying for three days and fishing for two days and drying nets, and the two of them learn to fly almost at the same time, Now Potti's flying skills are more than three streets in Contini! It's better not to speak ill of people behind your back.

Enzo nodded his head again and again, but his heart was full of doubts: Why did the president suddenly decide to go to the United States? Wasn't that what happened in July?

Antonio was also suspicious when he learned the news, but he was quickly relieved: he had just received the news that the Grand Fascist Committee was about to appear.

The introduction of this system was in fact to lay the foundation for the fascist family to become a supreme one, and Mussolini's government would no longer be accountable to the electorate, but only to the Grand Fascist Council.

The committee is not a free contest of candidates, but is nominated by the Nominating Committee and elected in a constituency – 2-3 candidates are nominated by the Nominating Committee, meaning that whoever is elected meets the requirements.

Relying on this system, Mussolini's regime was able to stand from 1922 to 1943 in historical time and space, creating a myth of re-election in Italian politics - which of the previous governments did not fall in 2-3 years? However, after the Allies landed in Sicily and Italy was completely cornered, the Grand Fascist Committee quickly turned its guns and deposed Mussolini, and the coup d'état was the little Ziano - in the end, the little Ziano used his life to win back a victorious country for Italy.

Now that the Grand Fascist Council has just been launched, it is sure to face backlash from all sides, and a fierce conflict is likely to break out, and Contini has just finished suppressing the Socialist Party, and he really does not dare to stay in Italy - who knows if Mussolini has anything else to do with him. Historically, it was this year that Matteotti was shot, which eventually caused an uproar and caused a regime crisis. This time, after Contini's successive blows, the Socialist Party inevitably declined prematurely, and Matteotti seemed to have a chance to escape its historical fate – but Contini thought that his mouth would sooner or later cause trouble.

Listen to his recent public statements about the merger of the Socialist elite with the Italian Communist Party, and his high-profile meeting with the leader of the Italian Communist Party, Gramsci – a character that can hardly be said to have any hope of regaining his life under Mussolini. Contini's personal attitude is very clear, he can use all kinds of tactics to deal with political opponents, but he can't assassinate them, and once he is assassinated, the whole thing will change his taste. So in the face of the impending maelstrom, he wisely chose to withdraw and escape, which is why he was in a hurry to go to the United States.

This attitude will definitely cause Mussolini to be dissatisfied, and if you bring Ida with you, you will have a shield, so you must hurry up, if you don't go, you may not be able to go.

"Consider booking a ticket for June 21, ask the steamship company, and give me a half-deck first-class cabin!" Contini explained to Enzo, "I'll have a suite with you; Miss Ada's best suite, where Monica (the president's life secretary) accompanies her; Uncle Antonio has a suite, and asks Gian to accompany him; a suite for Zakaria and the rest of the accompanying secretaries; Another 40 Roman guards, armed with weapons! Both submachine guns and machine guns are required. By the way, exclusive lifeboats, special radios and personnel are brought well! Mercedes-Benz brought all the bulletproof cars I gave! I have a lot of time to go to the United States, and I have to work on the ship, and I give you half a month to prepare. By the way, check the steamer carefully before setting off, so as not to have any hidden dangers. The ship's sailors were systematically screened, and not a single Socialist or Communist Party member could have it! ”

Enzo laughed: "President, are you going to take a boat or to rob?" ”

"Prevent others from beating our minds! Ida is on the ship, who can afford to have an accident? "If it weren't for the fear of being too ostentatious, I'd like to take a battleship with me!" Oh no, it's troublesome for those little short legs of the Italian Navy to go out of the house, it's still cruisers. ”

Hearing Contini's portrayal of the Italian Navy's capital ships as small short legs, Antonio couldn't help but laugh, but there was one thing he agreed with: the better the preparation, the better, the better the weapons and equipment - this can only choose Italy's own ships, how can the British and French ships allow you to carry so many weapons on board?

"By the way, bring another seaplane!" "The guards are two of the most skilled pilots in Riga, and they said that I would take them to the United States to open their eyes." ”

"Are there any companies in the U.S. that need to be inspected or discussed? I arranged it in advance. ”

"Wright is definitely going once, and I'm interested in their air-cooled engines; I also have to meet with Professor Goddard and try to invite him to Italy, where other key companies in the chemical industry, crude oil exploration, machinery manufacturing, etc., and Wall Street tycoons and bankers cannot be ignored. ”

The rest of Antonio thought it was normal, but the name of Professor Goddard surprised him: "Why do you want to study that...... What the...... Oh...... Rocket? ”

"Yes, throw a little money to play and make Ida happy, it's a matter of hundreds of thousands of dollars in total, which is much cheaper than building a cruise ship."

"Okay...... "Antonio is defeated, build a rocket to play? How creative! But I don't know what Contini is thinking: With Professor Goddard and rockets, can I open a missile technology tree in the 40s? Or will we bring Braun back then?

"To the United States?" Facing Monica, who came to inform, Ada's eyes widened, "The semester is not over yet, Sister Monica, why are you in such a hurry?" ”

"The president has business cooperation to negotiate over there, so he can only leave early." Monica smiled, "Isn't it good to go early?" That's all you want to do for your final exam? ”

"Yes...... yes," but in a blink of an eye, Ada was deflated, "The make-up exam is also a troublesome matter." ”

"Let me arrange it, how about taking the exam in advance? Find a teacher to be accommodating. ”

"Okay...... Okay" Ida was obviously a little scared of the exam, but she was worried about the rest, "but I still have to prepare my summer luggage, clothes, ......"

"No, I'll take the size later, and when you get on the ship, Gucci will buy a full set of clothes, bags, jewelry, and cosmetics for you, what you want, and other daily necessities are also arranged, you can bring 1-2 books you like to read."

Of course, the exam still has to be taken, but after Contini said hello, the school quickly arranged the final exam separately, and the teachers of each subject came up with the easiest test papers, and Ida almost got a perfect score - she was so happy that she exclaimed excitedly after getting the results: "Ah, I have never done so well in the exam!" ”

Monica, who graduated from the University of Rome, only smiled but did not speak: the president coaxed the little girl with clever means......

Mussolini was a little unhappy when he heard that Contini was rushing to the United States, and now is a critical moment for the party and government, how can Contini just leave? There are still a lot of things I want to do through the United Group! But when I heard that Contini really brought Ida with him, and arranged everything for Ada, from guards to supplies, that unpleasantness disappeared, and her daughter was always important, and she couldn't do anything without the rest of the United Group?

"So, who's in charge of the United Group after you're gone?"

"The day-to-day operation is carried out by the management in accordance with the authority, the day-to-day management affairs are led by Leo, and the publicity, public opinion and media work is in charge of Dr. Goebbels, although he is German, but he is very good at managing the media, and now he is also in charge of the film company, he is planning to shoot "The Leader", preparing to present the 2nd anniversary of the leader's rule, highlighting the great progress made by Italy under the leadership of the leader on various fronts such as politics, economy, culture, science and technology, national defense, and society, fully showing that only Fascist can save Italy, Only a leader can lead the Italian people forward, and it is the times and history that choose the party and the leader! Contini smiled, "I told my father that there was a big matter, and I asked him to help with the staff officer, and I also had a radio station, so I could keep in touch with the country at any time - the United States is not too far away, and I don't want to run to the edge of the sky and not come back!" ”

"Calais, your political consciousness is high – much higher than that of the average party comrade! I'm very interested in this film, so I'll definitely take a good look at it. Mussolini laughed: "I wish you a smooth journey, Ida is sorry for your discipline." ”

"It is my honor to serve the leader and serve the young lady!"
