"The Monarch?"

"Have you read it?"

Kate also found herself asking a very silly question, so she was a little embarrassed to shut up after saying this, but Joseph couldn't help but chuckle, which made Kate very dissatisfied. [Burn^text^**] [774] [buy]

"This is your gift to Wilsson? I think it's more appropriate if it's capital, the monarch theory...... I'm worried that Wilson will be honestly scared. ”

Naturally, this was a joke, and Kate ignored Joseph and called the hotel service staff to prepare a beautiful box, and then began to dress up.

The Governor's banquet naturally can't be dressed casually as if he had just gone out to play, after all, it is the upper class of the place, and Kate must show her dignified and noble side.

"I think this kind of life is so tiring, it's not casual at all."

Lying on the bed, Joseph tilted his head to watch Kate get dressed, taking off her coat to reveal her crystal jade back, not that Kate was used to it, but that she wanted to drive Joseph away Joseph There was no way to leave. Fortunately, Joseph didn't deliberately stare at Kate, otherwise it would have been a long delay for her to be able to take off and change into a dress.

With jewelry in front of the mirror, Kate asked casually, "That's why you chose to study abroad?" Looking for a free space to unwind? ”

"Free space? Where in the world is Nord freer? I just want to re-experience campus life, even if this campus is not the other campus. ”

The latter words of Joseph came out in Chinese, so Kate looked at him through the mirror with some confusion, and Joseph, who noticed this gaze, grinned at her and praised: "It's beautiful." ”

Blushing coquettishly, Kate no longer pursued this, and Joseph couldn't help but sigh that praise is the best weapon for a woman in the government. Any topic can be diverted as a result.

Attending a banquet is naturally different from going out to play, at least you can't go to the Governor's Palace on foot, and if you do, then it is estimated that Kate's dress can no longer be worn when she walks there.

Shangri-La Hotel is still relatively strong. The white Rolls-Royce of the Presidential Suite, although not in line with Joseph's identity, was in the absence of a better vehicle. It's good to be able to find a white Rolls-Royce like this.

"It almost became its own car, but I don't think Audi will let it go."

This was Joseph's first remark to Kate after getting into the car, so the driver in front couldn't help but look at him, and when he found out about Kate's beauty, his attention was still distracted.

Women are all beautiful, provided you know how to wear makeup. Kate herself has a ninety percent beauty, and now she has a full 99 points after careful makeup, and the difference is that she is too dignified and noble to give people a sense of alienation. Of course. This sense of alienation does not include Joseph.

"I think it's a wrong decision for you to focus on supporting the IT industry, and traditional industries like Audi are the ones that measure a country's comprehensive score, steel and oil ......."

"Kate, we're going to the governor's banquet, not the European Commission."

Joseph's helplessness made Kate pause slightly, and then smiled apologetically and stopped talking, but her inner thoughts did not change, and the dispute in the Duchy of Nord because of this will inevitably recur in the future. However, Joseph doesn't care about these things, because in the future, Kate's enemies will inevitably be a group of guys in the cabinet who have seen the development of IT, and they will do their best to block some of Kate's ideas.

Thinking of this, Joseph couldn't help but glance at Kate pitifully, she would definitely fall a very miserable fight in the future! Because the rise of IT has become unstoppable. Heavy Industry ...... Without large-scale reform, it is difficult to have a deep-seated future for development.

The Shangri-La Hotel was not very far from the Governor's Palace, and when the white Rolls-Royce arrived at the Governor's Palace, Joseph really noticed that there were many guests attending the banquet.

The white Rolls-Royce isn't much of a top-of-the-line vehicle here. The two silver Rolls-Royces are not for the time being, but those Bugatti Veyron Bentley limited edition Porsche, which surpass the white Rolls-Royce that Joseph rode in in terms of price alone.

Of course, if you really play an identity, then Joseph is the first deservedly, and no one will deny this, and no one will dare to deny it.

"Grand Duke Joseph, Marquis Kate, welcome to the port city."

Wilson was still in good spirits at this time, and the moment he saw Joseph and Kate get out of the car, he took the initiative to step forward, and the guests who saw this scene turned their attention to Joseph and Kate.

"Mr. Hong Kong's words seem to be a little late."

Joseph couldn't help but tease Wilsson. Kate was much kinder, and smiled lightly: "When I was in London before, I heard that the Queen valued Sir Wilson very much. This was our first meeting. ”

For example, Joseph's kind of ridicule Wilson couldn't answer at all, but fortunately Kate made up for it in time. Only then did Wilson get a step down, and Kate hurriedly took the lead in leading the way with a grateful look.

Joseph didn't dislike Wilson in the way, but he didn't feel good about him holding a banquet with such fanfare and inviting him, so he was pleased with him.

"It seems that this Grand Duke of Nord is not as friendly as he thought."

"I don't think it's anything, it's normal to behave like this at a young age."

"He's the Grand Duke of Nord? There's nothing either! ”

"It looks like I'm going to seize the opportunity tonight, it's just the ...... next to him"

Among the guests had their own thoughts, the rich dignitaries were mainly concerned with Joseph's character, while some of the young people were mainly unconvinced, and the thoughts of courtesans were self-evident.

Signaling to the young handsome man who couldn't take his eyes back, Wilson said with a pun: "Marquis Kate is very beautiful today." ”

"Thank you, the development of the port city is really good."

Kate could naturally hear Wilson's counterattack, but she was not polite at all, and directly used the development of Hong Kong City to block Wilson's mouth! How good is the development of the port city compared to the Principality of Nord? Some of the young men here are nothing, how can they be compared to Joseph?

Joseph was undoubtedly the kind of person that Wilson could not afford to offend, so he didn't say anything more casually, smiled slightly, and began to introduce some of the guests at the banquet in detail.

Joseph, who was also very interested in these deafening rich dignitaries in his previous life, so the conversation between the two sides was very smooth, and these rich people had a certain influence even in the world, so they didn't have to be too cautious when talking to Joseph.

From the bottom of their hearts, they are still very willing to get close to Joseph, after all, there are too many business opportunities in the development of Nord, and these are the things that businessmen are most concerned about.

"In terms of the development of Hong Kong City, I think it is close to its peak."

This was Joseph's only comment since the port city, and although Kate and several wealthy dignitaries were unwilling to accept this fact, they nodded in agreement.

"The population and land are restricting its development, and the agreed 97 years is an opportunity for me to the port city."

Joseph said bluntly, but this kind of topic is not what these Hong Kong tycoons like, because they still have a lot to worry about, after all, the system is different, the social environment is different, and they can't afford too big a change.

"It's an opportunity and a crisis, and it's a ...... that can afford that Not much. ”

The head of the Li family is not very optimistic, mainly not to that point, now everything is empty, once the choice is wrong, then they may be doomed, and the hundreds of billions of family property will disappear in an instant.

"How about a bet? I'm betting against you. ”

"Just bet on this?"

"yes, just bet on it."

Wilson wasn't here, because such a topic was not something he wanted to be involved in, and Kate was on the sidelines, but she never spoke up on similar occasions.

"What's the stake?"

Because of the position, there is no need to say much about the specific situation, what is needed now is the issue of betting, and no one is worried about credibility, after all, this is just something extra.

How to choose them has been determined, and there are already a number of people present to leave or not, and now Joseph is willing to gamble, then they are also willing to accompany, how can they not leave, if they can still have some capital to make a comeback as they think. Win? If they could, they would rather things go the way Joseph wanted.

"If the mainland does something to you, then I will give each of you 100 million euros. If you don't do it, then you owe me a favor. ”

Money is good but people are hard to pay, there has been a saying since ancient times, so fundamentally the Hong Kong tycoons belong to the losing side, but in fact they agreed to the bet without the slightest hesitation.

Mr. Wilson was so embarrassed that he did not show up, and some of the newspaper's shareholders quietly jot down the conversation, making it clear that the bet would be the hottest news.

Compared with the aristocracy of the West, these Hong Kong tycoons who developed hundreds of years ago are slightly less expensive to some extent, at least they don't know much about some wine horses. Of course, under the influence of the British, they can only not be very proficient and do not understand a little excessive.

After the banquet, on the way back to the hotel

"It would embarrass Sir Wilson to do so."

"He's the lucky one, and his successor is unlucky."

Kate obviously knew what Joseph was referring to, but she wondered how Joseph only knew that Wilson couldn't do it in '97, and how could he be so sure that Hong Kong City would return to China. There are still nearly ten years to go, and no one can imagine what will happen in ten years.

"Intuition, a man's intuition."

Kate was dissatisfied with this answer, and she felt that Joseph was playing tricks on her, and she did not want to be teased about such things.

"We'll see."

Kate's dissatisfaction Joseph could naturally see it, but how did he answer? Did I come through time, and these things know best? Pretending to be mysterious is undoubtedly the best solution, and if it is really entangled, it is simply a random reason to make up, Joseph thought. To be continued
