A few days before the arrival of the U.S. Secretary of State, as the main person in charge of reception, the deputy foreign minister of the Nord Foreign Ministry asked Super-Robert, who had a headache: "Lord Robert, what should we do now?" ”

Sipping on his coffee, Robert seemed to pay no attention to the matter, and still looked down at his newspaper, only to put it down when the deputy foreign minister was anxious to speak again.

"His Highness is not here, the Prime Minister is not here, what can we do now? No one does not know the strength of the United States, and in such a situation, our Highness still dares to provoke the United States, maybe His Highness's age is really too young. ”

The deputy foreign minister, who was originally anxious, couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, although he looked at Robert in a cold sweat and with some fear, what does this sentence mean, is it......

"Foreign Minister Claire doesn't have to think about it, I don't mean anything else."

Robert said so, but who would believe it? At this time, Claire had already begun to retreat, after all, the Ragnar family was the founder of the creation of Nord, and Nord has everything today thanks to Joseph. These cabinet members? A new group of cabinet members is not necessarily worse than them, but without Joseph Nord the Principality would not be where it is today.

What makes Claire flinch the most is that Joseph is too mysterious, and mystery is easy to give birth to fear, and Joseph is nine years old to stand in the position of Nord's master, more than half of the reason is this mystery.

"So, what now?"

"There's no way, to tell the truth, can he, the US Secretary of State, still blame us?"

"But ...... like this"

"That's a matter for Your Highness, Foreign Minister Claire."

Claire, who couldn't get effective instructions, could only say goodbye and leave, he didn't know that looking at his back, a complicated look flashed in Robert's eyes.

"Director John, maybe things aren't as simple as we thought."

As Robert's words fell, a middle-aged blonde man with a hooked nose and gloomy eyes entered, dressed in a very ordinary way, but anyone who looked at him knew that his identity was extraordinary, and it was likely that he was from a military background.

"That's your business, Mr. Robert, what are you going to do now?" There aren't many opportunities like this, and if you miss it, you have only one way to leave Nord. ”

The other party seemed to know Robert very well, and when he entered the door, he sat down opposite Robert, and casually picked up the coffee that Claire had come but had never touched.

"Well, it's a little cold, but it tastes good, and Nord is really developing fast, so fast that we can't ignore it."

Robert ignored the other party's words, closed his eyes and pondered for a long time before he spoke: "This is not the best time to do it, but now ......, I hope your people can delay the return of James and Joseph!" ”

"Naturally, there is no problem in holding Joseph back, and ...... James, you should know that our relations with Italy are not very good, maybe some special means."

"No, it's too easy to see the mistakes, and it's not good for ......"

"It's not good for you to be the first president of Nord. Ha ha! My old friend, I know what to do, just a joke. ”

"I hope I won't hear jokes like that again, John!"

The conspirators in Robert's office, Joseph and James, were unaware of the fact that at the same time James was inspecting the Italian handicraft workshop accompanied by the Italian Prime Minister.

Nord's position in the clothing industry is becoming more and more solid, but when he came to Italy, he realized where the gap between Nord and Italian clothing is. In terms of fashion and trend, Italy is far inferior to Nord, but in terms of workmanship and formal wear, the Italian clothing industry has thrown out more than one street of Nord.

"Mr. James, this is a gift from you, and we hope you enjoy it."

When he was about to leave, the owner of the workshop gave him a gift, and when he looked at the rectangular box, James knew that it was a suit, how an Italian suit did not need to be said, and this was a wish of the other party, and James had no reason not to accept it. The workshop owner was also happy to see James accept his gift, which meant that the next request was much easier.

"Prime Minister James, on behalf of the Italian fashion industry, I invite my colleagues from NORD to join our alliance, so that we can share the clothing exhibition with NORD, which will be held in rotation in Milan!"

James couldn't help but raise his eyebrows when he heard this, this is a good thing! The benefits of a fashion exhibition are numerous, and expanding awareness is just one of them, and bringing in considerable traffic is the main thing.

"Although I can't agree to your request for the Nord clothing industry, I believe that no one has refused such a thing, and I would like to express my gratitude to you on behalf of the Nord Cabinet."

"It's a win-win, isn't it? Mr. James. ”

"Yes, it's a win-win!"

The Prime Minister is talking to James in a personal capacity, and the two are completely different.

During the conversation, James did not know that this was a trap, a trap that dragged James in Italy, and although the owner of the workshop was talking about things and was prepared to do so, he wanted to cooperate with someone else, not with James.

In this process, perhaps only the Italian Prime Minister was unhappy, because no one informed him in advance, but at this time he could not speak, and he could not reprimand the workshop owner regardless of the overall situation and the face of the government!

Sensoji Temple, Tokyo, Japan

The Kyoto State Guest House wanted to prepare a guide for Joseph, but looking at the two full of hi hi hi hi! A male guide who keeps bowing, Joseph refuses the kindness of the general manager of the Kyoto State Guest House.

Only Marceau and a few guards came with him, and of course there were two security guards from the Japanese Imperial Family, who were mainly responsible for helping Joseph clear some unnecessary troubles.

Although Tokyo is the capital of Japan, the security here is not very good, especially Joseph did not identify himself, and it is not a trivial matter for some reckless people to even rush Joseph.

This represents the face of Japan, and the government and the imperial family cannot afford not to care, and Joseph understands this, so he does not deliberately get rid of these people.

Sensoji Temple is crowded with tourists, and the most common sights are women in kimonos, holding the arms of their friends, laughing, or watching the groceries displayed in front of them, making it easy to think that you have arrived in Japan's Warring States period.

Joseph saw that Marceau's eyes were full of curiosity, so he took the initiative to help Marceau buy a pack of rice balls, and Marceau, who enjoyed such treatment for the first time, was obviously a little flattered.

The rice balls were handed to Marceau, but at this time Joseph was also faced with an embarrassing problem, he did not have yen on him, but only a few dollars, and although the dollar is also used in Japan, it is not traded by the people.
