Chapter 24: Red Coral (2)
Duck hurriedly intercepted the old man's words: "Don't! You wait! I have a sweetheart, no, my fiancée! The relationship is very good, and I will go back to my hometown to get married when I finish this errand." Besides, my alchemy level can only be said to be average. It's a sea of frozen souls from your granddaughter's standard. ”
Valentine sighed, "Of course, I saw it on the airship. I just want you to teach her a lesson and let her know that she is not thinking the right way. ”
Duck frowned: "It doesn't sound that simple, is she hostile to men?"
"I ...... Up in the air. Moreover, since the age of eleven, her behavior and dress have changed greatly, and she looks so ...... Maverick, right, maverick. Not only do there be no friends of the opposite sex, but there are also few friends of the same sex. ”
"That's right...... My fiancée used to work at church, and she might be able to help...... Do you have a magical image of your granddaughter?"
"Of course, please see. ”
The blue light flashed, and a slim girl appeared in front of the two of them.
Duck was stunned, not because he was pretty.
Black.
All over the body, it's all black.
Hair, eyes, clothes, gloves, shoes, all black. Moreover, the pale and handsome face, the melancholy and resolute expression, and the faint mocking smile at the corner of the mouth, pierced Duck at once.
A name blurted out: "George!"
The old man was taken aback: "How do you know her name?"
"Uh, no, I'm just, only occasionally heard, that someone called that. ”
The old man almost jumped to his feet and grabbed his hand: "Where is that man? Is he wearing the same clothes?"
The surprise attack made Duck very embarrassed: "Well, I, not sure, it seems, well, Dorland......" He decided to change the subject immediately, "Well, but, George, it's a male name." ”
"Yes, yes, her original name was Stella, but then she changed her name to George, and we can say that she reluctantly agreed not to be called George. ”
"Well, her current name is ......"
"Georgina. ”
At this time, the butler knocked lightly on the door: "Sir, sir, their family is here, and Mr. Kushner." ”
Valentine frowned: "Got it, I'll go over in a moment." Let them wait. ”
Duck said, "You seem to have a family to deal with, I'm waiting for you here." ”
"No, that's all that's been said, let's go over together," Valentin raised his hand and poked Dark's chest, and said with a straight face, "Young man, I'm very serious to tell you, now family affairs are official affairs, as long as the matter just now is solved, everything will be easy to do; ”
"I did my best. ”
As soon as he went out, Duck saw Valentine's son's family, the well-dressed man, Varentine's son Bolmer and his wife, as well as the expressionless female version of George standing behind him, and the unidentified man standing at the back of the four with a flattering face - it should be the Kushner guy?
As the head of the family, Bolmer took the initiative to extend his hand to Dark: "Hello, Mr. Salesman, I am Bolmer, the president of the Red Coral Chamber of Commerce, and it is a pleasure to meet you. ”
As soon as the word salesman came out, Valentine's face suddenly froze. Bormer's wife chuckled, Georgina looked nonchalant, and the most interesting thing was Kushner beside her, look at this, look at that, and then decisively make a contemptuous but polite smile.
In just a moment, Darker already had a general understanding of the relationship between the sons of this family, and he also stretched out his hand with a smile: "The only chartered company in the Kingdom of New Tenotiran is the commercial representative of the Rohr Chamber of Commerce, Dark. He deliberately bit the word "charter" very hard.
Of course, Bolmer heard from this word that the young man opposite was neither arrogant nor humble, and his eyebrows were raised vigorously, and he pressed down hard: "You are a Dorander, not a New Zealander?"
"Yes. ”
"That's great, I thought I was dealing with a dwarf in a straw skirt who spoke an indigenous language and was full of human sacrifices, but now it seems that you are as civilized as I am - do they still play the game of worshipping God?"
"Yes, Mr. Bolmer, always. ”
This caught Bolmer by surprise, and even Georgina raised her eyes.
As an expatriate of the charter company, you must resolutely fight back against any words and deeds that attack the company and the country, otherwise it is a trivial matter to be looked down upon, and it is a trouble to be considered weak and bullied, and to create a large number of competitors who want to step on you for no reason. Then don't think about doing any business.
Now, this young man with the physique of the thug is cowardly?
Dack said: "The new state that has just been established has only completed the unification of the situation, and King Atavar is only the nominal co-owner. Some of the indigenous tribes of the rainforest were not even aware of the founding of the New Nation, and the cruel and barbaric primitive religious rituals would continue until the New Tent army leveled their villages and rescued the poor sacrifices. ”
Darker smiled and continued: "As for whether it is civilized or uncivilized, I am a Dorand and a part-time worker, so I can't talk nonsense, but when the Titans sank, the two new warships 65 nautical miles away, regardless of the dangers of unfamiliar waters, resolutely decided to change their course and go straight to the accident site. I think that the first thing that came to mind for the 630 poor people who were struggling in the sea of ice when they saw the two warships falling from the sky in the miserable wind and freezing rain was not human sacrifice. ”
"This ......"
Valentine laughed, silly son, do you think this lad only has muscles in his head?
The corners of Georgina's mouth twitched slightly, and this small action was immediately discovered by Kushner, and he hurriedly asked, "Nana, what's wrong?"
"What do I need to explain to you?"
"Uh......"
"Anyway, I don't like this kind of time-wasting occasion, so let's take it as a relief from boredom, listen up. This big man still has two hits. ”
"How?"
His words have a threefold meaning: first, that New Tenotiran has just been established, and that it will not expand on a large scale for the time being, and that it will infringe on our overseas trade, and that it is a partner to cooperate with; second, that they have superior naval strength; and third, they have the support of powerful countries behind them, and they have nothing to fear. ”
"I see, Nana, you're so smart. ”
"I don't like this kind of qualityless sycophant, shut up. ”
Kushner forced a breath of bad air.
The first round of verbal exchanges here is over, and the defiant Bolmer is completely defeated, so he has to maintain an embarrassed but polite smile.
His wife, Mrs. Stephanie, was anxious when she saw her husband's embarrassment, but she did not know what to do. At this moment, a servant came briskly and whispered a few words in her ear, and her eyes lit up, and she also whispered a few words to Bolmer, who also had a light in his eyes and nodded repeatedly. Then, Stephanie excused herself and left the crowd.
Valentine ignored these small gestures, beckoned everyone to sit down at the table, and said, "Mr. Duck is our new partner, Red Coral has been unable to find a suitable investment project for more than two years, and at this time, Mr. Duck has arrived......"
Bolmer let out a violent cough that even Georgina cast a disgruntled look.
Valentine said angrily: "Ahem, what ahem! He's my trusted partner, can't he be honest?"
Bolmer looked at Duck in amazement, and then at his own Lao Tzu, not knowing where this trust came from.
Duck got up and bowed slightly to Valentine: "Thank you Mr. Valentine for your trust, then I will tell you the truth, I only came to inspect the market this time, and I have no plan to open up the market, but since I have Mr. Valentine's support, I think we can first carry out preliminary cooperation in some relatively simple and mature technical fields." ”
At the mention of the specific business, Bolmer immediately became elevated: "So, what is a good project that can make everyone rich?"
Duck was prepared, took out the self-heating lunch box and pushed it over: "This is a sample." Self-heating rice. ”
Bolmer was stunned: "Self-heating? it's amazing—Georgina, you can't ...... Forget it, you can take it and see it. ”
"I have had an in-depth exchange with Mr. Dark, and there are no problems with manufacturing principles, production processes, costs and marketing," Sunny said. The only consideration is technical secrecy, which must be handed over to a reliable person to take care of - oh no, Nana, that fever pack can't be eaten, put it down!"
"At its core, it's a heating pack. The heating pack is equipped with a special heating material, which can reach 60 degrees Celsius within 5 minutes after rubbing, and can be increased to more than 150 degrees Celsius if water is added. ”
Bolmer exclaimed.
I have to admit that this is indeed an epoch-making technology for the icy Beihai. Convenient and fast self-heating food has a broad market prospect, whether it is civil or military.
The old man is really immortal, with a unique eye and extraordinary luck, he can pick up such a big fresh fish on a trip.
At this time, Georgina suddenly said: "Roasting diatomaceous earth, iron powder, aluminum powder, coke powder, activated carbon, salt, the core of your technology, is nothing more than these things, right?"
Shocked!
Countless pairs of ears brushed up.
"Pounds!"
Enraged, Valentine slapped the table fiercely: "Georgina, shut up!"
Bolmer's blood surged, and he almost jumped up and slapped the ignorant daughter.
For the first time, he felt deeply that he was really negligent in discipline.
He is convinced of his daughter's alchemy level, but, daughter, you can't do this, you can't break other people's technical secrets in front of the public, that's the foundation of a chamber of commerce!
He immediately got up and bowed to Dak: "I'm sorry, I'm really sorry, I didn't discipline my daughter well, I talked nonsense, I caused you trouble, I'm sorry, I'm sorry!"
Kushner on the side hurriedly got up to help: "Uh, I think, Nana is just quick talking, she has no malicious ...... at all"
Valentin forced a vicious breath and smiled at Duck: "Mr. Duck, just now-"
Georgina said lightly: "I'm sorry, I have complete malice, I just want to say it." Give me two hours, and I can also publish the ratios of each material, which is accurate to the percentile. ”
For a while, the audience was silent.
"I just can't get used to seeing some people's faces, showing off the technology they got by a little bit of luck. ”
As she spoke, the stinky girl who didn't know the height of the sky pushed the table, got up and left. After walking two steps, he turned back and said to Duck contemptuously, "You can sue me." Oh, by the way," she said, gesturing at the stunned Kushner, "he's the grandson of the current Governor of Jacque, Luxford, the son of the Director of the Department of Justice, and my suitor—it's useless." Good bye. ”
