Chapter 141: Lara Crawford
"Chris, do you know Laura's family too?" Hearing Chris's words, Sanmantha Nishimura was surprised, and Laura also looked at Chris in surprise.
"Of course, the reputation of the Crawford family is much greater than you think," Chris shrugged, but it was obviously not what Chris said, and it was only after the last banquet that he sent someone to investigate everything about the Crawford family.
After all, if you want to get in touch with Lara Crawford, a goddess-level figure, how can you not do some preparations?
However, it was only after investigating that Chris discovered that the Crawford family was really not simple.
Not to mention the hereditary earl, the various industries alone amount to tens of billions of pounds, especially more than the apparent assets of the British royal family.
But Laura Crawford is still a tough person, after her parents disappeared because of an expedition and were presumed dead, she refused to admit it, rejected the family tradition, did not enter Cambridge University, chose to enter the University of London, did not inherit the family property, and chose to work on her own to earn tuition......
So as for the depth of the Crawford family, Laura, the heir, does not know more than Chris.
But the current head of the Crawford family business, that Anna Miller, is not a good master.
"Really, I always thought that I was the only one who knew that Laura was actually a daughter who was richer than me" After listening to Chris's statement, Sanmantha's eyes widened and said, "Originally, I said that as long as she inherits the family property, she can use some power casually, what adventure is not a problem?" It's just that she has to pull all kinds of investments by herself, and now she's not here to find you. ”
"Oh? Pull investment? Can you elaborate on that? Chris said, pretending to be interested.
"Of course, Mr. Osborne" Compared to Shanmantha West's arrogance, Laura, who was still a fledgling rookie, behaved a little reservedly, but Chris did not doubt the strength in his bones at all.
Mom, this is a goddess, but in the case of being stabbed through the stomach, she can kill the island gods with hundreds of armed forces with a broken wooden bow, okay? She's not strong, aren't you dead people who do something unspeakable to fo001?
"Don't be so outward, like Sanmantha, just call me Chris" Chris smiled warmly, and almost didn't say directly, Miss Laura, it's almost time to the bowl.
"Okay, Chris, that's right, as you know, I'm researching the history of the Sun Queen Himiko and the Yamadai Kingdom, and recently I have made some new discoveries, so I made an appointment with the famous archaeologist Dr. Whitman to go on a field trip to Japan, but because Dr. Whitman's previous investment failed, we didn't have enough funds" Laura said with some shame.
"Originally, I wanted my uncle to pay this money, but that old guy had to take 60% of the interest in this discovery, so how could it work? So I thought last time you said you were also interested in the history of the Sun Queen, so I brought Laura to you," Samantha said as she helped.
"Oh, I see, it's a small thing, how much money do you have left?" Chris nodded when he heard this, as long as it was a matter of money, it was trivial, and after speaking, he took out his checkbook and prepared to write a check.
"There's about $10,000 left short...... Laura, a little embarrassed.
Tear ...... Hearing Laura's number, Chris couldn't help but draw a hole in the checkbook, wasting a check.
Seeing this, Laura thought that she was talking too much, so she immediately changed her words and said, "Actually, eight thousand is enough, and the ship on which this expedition took belonged to my father's good friend Uncle Rose, so it's okay to have less......"
"Ahem, no, I just think that you who play archaeology are so economical?" Chris tugged at the corners of his mouth, looked at the village of Sanmantha West beside Laura, and came to me for 10,000 dollars? Is this kidding me? Miss, the clothes and jewelry on your body add up to more than 10,000 dollars, right?
In this regard, Shanmansa couldn't help but cover her forehead weakly, before she came, she also explained a thousand times, asking Laura to open her mouth this time, maybe she could flicker a little more from Chris, so that they had the money for the archaeological project in the next few years, but she didn't expect her good friend to be really a "lice" to open her mouth.
Seeing Shanmantha's performance, Chris understood that this goddess, who is obviously worth tens of billions, has a really heavy grassroots aura at this time......
"It's half a million dollars" Chris tore up the voided check, refilled a chapter, handed it to Laura, and said, "I don't know what you were going to do with the ship, but I know that there is an old oriental proverb that if you want to do a good job first, you must first sharpen your tools, so I will prepare a new research ship for you and some new equipment and corresponding personnel, of course, if you are not at ease, you can also ask someone you believe"
Laura's eyes widened at the check in front of her...... She's grown up and she's never seen so much money...... Although the family has tens of billions of assets waiting for her to inherit, before that, the most money she has seen is probably a few hundred pounds earned at the street bike race in London some time ago......
"Thank you very much, Chris," Laura said with a check in her hand, a little bewildered, as she looked at Sanmantha to lift her forehead again.
"Hey, don't be too busy thanking, after all, I paid this money, but there is a request" Chris waved his hand.
Hearing Chris's words, Laura immediately calmed down, and then thought of Chris's erosive private life, with a vigilant face, "What request?" I'm not a casual person, and I won't say yes if I go too far. ”
At the same time, I thought to myself, what must not work, if it is just to eat or something, it is still okay, anyway, the other party is also very handsome, and the figure is also great, what if he really makes that kind of request? Do you want to say yes? It's so entangled, it's the first time for me.
"Ahem, I just wanted to tell you that I would take a few people with you on this expedition, what do you think I want to say?" Chris said with a strange face, the powerful ghost energy allowed him to vaguely guess Laura's thoughts, but he didn't expect that Miss Laura was actually so dirty......
"Ah, is that so?" Hearing Chris's words, Laura couldn't help but feel a little surprised, her cheeks flushed slightly, and she was ashamed that she wanted to be crooked, but for some reason, she still had a slight sense of loss in her heart. "Of course you can, after all, this is just an ordinary historical expedition."
Sanmantha on the side looked at the communication between Chris and Laura with a suspicious expression, why did these two people make her feel weird today......
In fact, it is not surprising to think about it, Chris is 23 years old this year, Laura is 21 years old, and the age difference between the two is not much.
Young men and women, one handsome and the other beautiful, will inevitably have some strange reactions when they meet each other, and there is nothing strange about this, right?
