Chapter 292, Reparation

"Mr. MacDonald, the people who have been protesting around our factories in France have retreated, and we have intercepted such a telegram. It was sent to Joshua by the Rothschilds. Bond handed Scrooge a copy of the paper, and then quietly stepped aside, waiting for Scrooge's decision.

Scrooge opened the text, which was a secret message sent by the Rothschild family to Joshua, but the so-called secret message in this era is actually very simple, so simple that it is not much stronger than the black words on the rivers and lakes. Although the secrecy of the cipher used by the Rothscaild family was almost second to none in the world at that time, its complexity was still limited. This, coupled with the fact that there was little awareness of changing the passwords, and the fact that they were all sent through Scrooge's New York Tower, made Scrooge's men a 100% success rate in intercepting these telegrams, and there were countless samples. Therefore, these passwords have long been cracked cleanly. So now Scrooge sees exactly the same documents as Joshua sees. Considering the efficiency of sending the letter, Scrooge saw this even ten minutes earlier than Joshua, although it was not as good as the so-called historical documentary in Taiwan mentioned in the later generations of US President Roosevelt (who died a few months before Japan's surrender) knew the news of Japan's surrender three hours later than Chairman Chiang, but to paraphrase the line "These are excellent examples of intelligence workers", it is actually okay to praise Heishui's intelligence work.

Scrooge took out the text and looked at it:

"You quickly met with Scrooge, conveyed our apologies, and promised that something like this would never happen again. As a sign of good faith and to compensate for his loss, we authorize you to make the following commitments to him: 1、......"

"That's interesting." Scrooge smiled, "How did they back down so easily?" It's kind of attractive to look at the few compensation they give. However, if they really cooperate with those sub-Jews according to the ones mentioned above, they don't seem to have suffered a loss, and they can even make a profit. ”

"What a Jewish vampire! Shrewd to such an extent, it's no wonder that people are hated everywhere. Scrooge smiled and shook his head.

Scrooge put down the text in his hand and saw that Bond was still waiting next to him. He knew that Bond was still waiting to see if he had any decisions that needed to be carried out immediately. So he said to Bond, "Those Jews are going to make peace." But we can't just trust the Jews. So, during this time, we still need to keep an eye on it a little closer. Do you understand? ”

"I understand, sir." Bond replied.

"Alright then, you go ahead and make arrangements, well, keep an eye on Joshua over here." Scrooge said.

Bond said goodbye and left, and Scrooge put Wen Jiàn away and walked out of the office. Scrooge is also quite nervous these days, after all, Rothschild is also a legendary big conglomerate, although it is not as exaggerated in some of the novels that Scrooge saw in later generations, or in fact, novels, has 50 trillion dollars in assets, is behind the two world wars and the Cold War, but it is definitely a formidable opponent. It's always easy not to fight against such an opponent. Although it is uncertain whether what the Rothschild family said in the telegram is true, after all, in order to conceal their strategic intentions, the upper echelons have deceived the lower echelons with the enemy. However, considering the logic of capital, Scrooge felt that he did not need to desperately conflict of interest with the Rothschilds now, at least for now. There is a complete possibility of compromise, or even the pursuit of a win-win situation, so Scrooge feels that it is not very likely that the Rothschilds will play strategic deception in this matter. This kind of judgment also made Scrooge feel a lot more relaxed.

Coming out of the office, turn right along the aisle, walk a few dozen meters, and you will find the garden. It's early autumn now, and in an era before global warming, autumn is much more pronounced than in the 21st century. For example, the sunlight at this time, although bright, is mild.

The garden of Duck Castle is very large, full of all kinds of trees and flowers, most of which have already bloomed, except for the moon season in the flower beds. There was a tall oak tree in the middle of the garden, this thirty-meter-tall tree was different from the other trees in the garden, which were all transplanted after the duck castle was added, except for this big tree, which required four people to hug each other, and had grown here for hundreds of years. The entire garden is designed and built around it for a large extent.

The builders of the garden made a swing by tying ropes to the thick branches of the old oak tree, and the servants set up a small round rattan table and several rattan chairs beside it. Now, the two little ones in the family, Dena and her brother Donald, can be seen playing on the swing there. Beside them, several women in the family were also sitting and chatting, while Anna stood quietly next to the swing, watching over the two

Scrooge walked over to them. At this time, Dena was pushing Donald, who was sitting in the middle of the mill, higher and higher. And Donald, who always followed his sister to do bad things and finally became bold, was not afraid at all, but shouted excitedly: "Higher, higher!" ”

"Miss Dena, don't push too high, it's dangerous. Donald, you have to be careful, too. Anna reminded from the side.

"Aunt Anna, it's okay." Dena replied nonchalantly, "You see Donald isn't scared at all. ”

"It's not out of luck to say that Donald follows Dena, the monkey sister, all day long. At least a lot braver. Catherine, who was sitting on the side, said with a grin.

"Well, Dena is a leather monkey, isn't Donald a leather monkey? It's just that I don't know if Greystone will also be a little skin monkey in the future. Dorothea glanced at Greystone, who was sleeping in Cherie's arms, and said with a smile, "I think so." Well, you think, Carol looks so steady, and the children born are all two skin monkeys, and a guy like Scrooge gives birth to a son who can't be skinned...... Well, most likely, the MacDonald's family must have been leather monkeys when they were young! ”

"Scrooge was very skinny when he was a child, climbing trees all day to dig birds' nests and everything, and sometimes hanging up his clothes. Then he quietly came to me and asked me to sew it for him, so that his father would not see it and spank him. Carol isn't that skinny, she's always been a steady ......," Laura said, a smile creeping up the wrinkled corners of her eyes. She seemed to be reminded of Scrooge's childhood, when she was still young, and although her life was far less affluent than it is now, there was still a sweetness in her recollection.

"Mom, you're talking to my wife about my mess again. It's too bad for me in Dorothea's mind. Scrooge had already walked up to them by this time, but the women were chatting happily and didn't notice him.

"How did you touch it silently like a cat?" Laura smiled and said, "I'm complimenting you, generally speaking, only the more skinny children are talented." ”

"Well, our Carol is much worse than his brother." Catherine laughed and said, "But the next generation will be different, Dorothea, and I'm sure Greystone will not have these two monkey skins in the future." ”

Before Dorothea could speak, she left Donald behind and ran over, "Uncle Scrooge, when will those two ponies you told us last week be arriving?" Dena really wanted to ride it out and play. ”

"Uncle Scrooge, and mine!" Donald also quickly ran off the swing and shouted at Scrooge.

"It should be there soon, maybe tonight. Wait a little longer. Scrooge said.

"But Uncle Scrooge, that's what you said yesterday." Donald said.

"Damn garbage logistics, it's not Double Eleven, it's been more than a week since I placed an order, and the goods haven't arrived yet. Be sure to give a bad review! Scrooge thought to himself.

Anna brought a chair for Scrooge, who took it and said to Anna, "Thank you, Anna." There's also a chair over there, so sit down too. ”

Anna hesitated, and at this time, Laura spoke: "Anna, now the two leather monkeys are not on the swing again, you also sit down and rest." You are also a member of our family, just like my daughter. ”

"Yes, Sister Anna, you've been busy all day, it's time to sit down." As he spoke, he stood up, grabbed Anna, and pressed her to the chair.

Anna had to sit down, and then, well, because of Scrooge's presence, it seemed like it was suddenly cold. Probably because some of the things they just talked about were not easy to talk about in front of Scrooge. In the end, it was Catherine who found a new topic.

"Scrooge, what's going on in Europe?"

"I've sent a warning to Joshua, and it must have worked. Recently......" Scrooge stopped and glanced at Chery.

"Mr. MacDonald, old lady, Greystone has slept soundly. It was a bit windy here, and I was afraid that he would catch a cold, so I carried him back to my room. Cherie hugged Greystone and said to Scrooge.

"Okay, take care of my little grandson." Laura replied. So Cherie walked in the direction of the nursery with Greystone in her arms.

"Okay, that's it." Dorothea said.

"The demonstrations and all that stopped, and we deciphered their contact telegram, in which they instructed Joshua to apologize to us in the name of the family and express their desire to cooperate."
