In the past, Downing Street was the political powerhouse of the Eagle Nation, and Whitehall was the place where the cabinet departments operated, and if there was a problem in these places, the entire kingdom's government could be paralyzed. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Now in the banquet palace of Whitehall, seeing those kingdoms that can only be seen in the press or on television, and the big names that may make people deafening are close at this time, even if it is the descendants of nobles like Tran, Fodo, and Dilov who have cheered themselves up in advance, they are still a little frightened.

"Tran, Dilov, you see, that's Lord Ergu, one of the Speakers of the "Big Three" of our Cangzhou Star District! I met him with my father at a ceremony to honor a veteran, but I didn't expect him to come today, but unfortunately I don't know if he will recognize me? Fodo excitedly pointed to the big man in the corner of the room.

Tran and Delov were skeptical.

At this time, the Speaker had just paced over, and Fudo's face twitched because of nervousness, and he greeted him from a distance that was not close or far, "Mr. Speaker, I am the Locke family of Eric Star, Fodo R. Locke's son of Jacques R., I still remember you, that memorial ceremony, my father specially introduced me to you, if you don't mind......"

The speaker turned his head to look at the four of them, and then smiled politely, "Fudo...... He's a good boy. Say hello to your father on my behalf......" Then he caught a glimpse of a figure, and walked quickly towards the person on the other side, his voice instantly much higher, "Minister Calondo, it's good to see you here!" ”

"Councilor Ergu! Tell me what's going on with your sector's workers' union, tell me about it, I remember that the allocation was sufficient, why did you tell me that there would be a vacancy for 100,000 space technicians......"

Delov tilted her lips, looked at Fudo, who could only have a "one-sided relationship" with the Speaker, and said with a smile, "See, his name is Calondo, but it is much more important than you!" ”

Fudo, who was a little stupid, looked into the distance, "Heh, you two don't have a backache when you stand and talk, Tran, isn't that the one over there that you have admired for a long time and holds Lieutenant General Omro, the author of his book "The Theory of Air Power" every day, why don't you go and say hello?" Delov, I remember you secretly keeping an eye on the movements of Usain Bolt, the governor of the Central Bank, and that man was there, and if you had half the teeth that you usually did to us, I guarantee he would have noticed you, stunner! ”

Dilov stretched out his hand and pinched the soft flesh on his back fiercely, Fudo grinned in pain, and Dilov glanced in the direction of Lin Hai, "Don't embarrass us!" ”

In the inner circle of those communication, they are all famous figures, but even if you participate in this drinking party, it is impossible to directly volunteer to contact and talk to the other party without a recommendation, which will only give you an unstable and reckless impression. If you haven't excelled yet, then it's really not to blame being disliked.

And the three of Dilov are actually remote nobles, and they got the opportunity to have this drinking party because of the honor of their ancestors, but in the occasion of these hundreds of people's drinking party, they are probably the most marginal people in the routine part of the noble quota.

Forced to smile at people who don't know or are famous, but they may not be able to enter the other party's field of vision, in the absence of any glory, in such an occasion, like a foil of green leaves, always in a position of being ignored, a little self-esteem, will have hot ears.

Tran smiled apologetically at the young officer who had followed them, "Linda, if you want to get to know some people from it, I'm sorry I can't do that. ”

The young officer replied with a gentle smile, "It's okay, I don't have anyone in particular I want to know." ”

Both Fodo and Dilov subconsciously glanced at him, thinking that this Linda was very good at being a person and talking. But this statement inevitably seems a little fake, in such an occasion full of big people, will you have people who you don't want to know and revere? Will you ask for nothing and do nothing? If you are so innocent, why do you want to come here at the cost of buying shoes that are considered a luxury to you?

Of course, Fodo and Dilov's gaze at him was only a touch, and the countless circles of fame and fortune in front of them, those visible and invisible circles, revealed resources and information, no less than they were like a treasure house, but unfortunately they were like treasure mountains and were powerless to grab those connections and resources.

However, Delov couldn't help but stay on this Linda's face for a second or two in the end, not only because of his mustachioed face, which made her have to admit that it was indescribably good-looking, but also because those eyes were somewhat familiar, and she couldn't remember where she had seen them, but this thought was also a brief fragment, and it was quickly occupied by the impact of this social situation.

***

"Look who of us is here, cousin Tran, I heard that the Tran family was invited, and I couldn't believe it......" The crowd at the other end parted, and a group of men and women came over, led by a noble man who was about five years older than Tran, his expression was distinct, showing that he was very eloquent, and he must be a figure from left to right.

It's just that the way he spoke to Tran at this time made people a little uncomfortable for some reason, "I heard that you have completed your studies at Sandhurst Military Academy, and you hope to get a job in the army, and you can complete your degree and get the rank of captain, which shows that my distant relatives of the Tran family are very good!" However, although there is a title, you know that the current army is already a turnip and a pit, the outbreak of the Great Patriotic War and the Universe War are destined to surpass everything in the future The army's discourse power will surpass everything, and it will also be unprecedentedly expanded, of course, a captain like you can easily get a big position in the logistics army, but if the upper army is either occupied by people with outstanding military achievements, or there is a very hard backstage, it is not so easy to enter. ”

Seeing the arrival, Dirov and Fodo greeted each other respectfully at the same time, "Cousin Oaket." ”

Oakett's gaze just swept over them.

But Tran said to his cousin, "What I learned was not in military logistics, but in command." ”

"It's still stubborn." Oak smiled at the people beside him. He was surrounded by nobles and men, as well as merchants and government officials. Those aristocratic men and women who were the same as him all laughed, many of them surpassed Dilov in terms of dress and charm, and these aristocratic women with tricky eyes just glanced at Dilov with a slight smile, and Dilov quietly covered the smart bracelet on his left wrist with his hand, although the bracelet was produced by the famous brand Gucci of the kingdom, but it was an outdated product, and it was the bottom of the box jewelry that her mother took out in order to let her attend this occasion, but it was a world of difference from a new season product in the hands of the other woman. In short, it is enough to make the other party laugh at "hillbilly".

Delov was a woman with great self-esteem, and all this may have come from her declining aristocratic family, so her cheeks were crimson, and her character was originally like an aggressive hen, but she seemed unusually unusually unrelenting when facing the nobles of Oxter.

"But of course I'll help you, who made my distant cousin ask me again and again. Although you have always asked so much, after all, you are a family, and if I don't help you in this situation, then your Thornhurst Military Academy will be in vain. ”

Oakett said this to Tran, but as he spoke, he looked to his side, and the group of people around him also nodded under his gaze, all of them looked approving.

Oakett is also confident in the end, although the Sandhurst Military Academy is one of the three major military academies in the empire, but most of the current officers graduate from the empty position, Tran has no background, can he go to the battlefield to make meritorious contributions is another matter, most of them also have to slowly boil up in the inconspicuous troops, and the rest of the troops in the kingdom platoon, the officers are all full, so people with strong backgrounds may not be able to entrust them to any official and half positions. War risks and opportunities coexisted, and the troops that could really leave a name in the history of the kingdom were all the most outstanding of the tens of thousands of troops at that time.

Thinking of this, thinking of his father's humility and politeness on the other end of the phone at that time, and the high hopes placed on him, Turan had to swallow his anger, "Then please Cousin Oakter." ”

Oakett stared meaningfully at his distant relative, whom he disdained, and said after a while, "Tran, the army is so good?" You just want to be on the battlefield where you can be blown off by shells at any moment, or maybe even just die? Is it that he plans to take this opportunity to fight and jump a few levels in a row with his military exploits, thinking that he can use this to jump to a higher level and become a first-class nobleman? Take a gamble and fight for the infinite glory of your Alectrian family? ”

Delov's face changed slightly, she knew that this doubt had undoubtedly touched Tran's scales, and Fodo quickly grabbed the corner of his coat from behind, pretending to be inadvertent.

But all this did not make the anger on Tran's face subside, he stared closely at this cousin who still had a sarcastic smile on the corner of his mouth, and said coldly, "For what I have learned in this life, I will not be disappointed!" ”

"For the sake of the Great Patriotic War, not subject to ****!"

The expressions of Dilov and Fodo next to him became quite ugly, and the same became ugly, as well as Oakt and the people behind him who were looking at each other a little stunned.

Octet turned around and laughed at them a few times, then turned his head back and grinned, "Ambitious, okay." Do you see that guy over there, he's the number one secretary of the Department of Defense's Military Personnel and Veterans Bureau, and I have a lot of dealings with him...... It's just that he's been very busy lately, and I'll tell him about you, and I'm not sure when the result will be, so I'll have to wait...... It may not be possible, because there are a lot of trade-offs in people's hands, and it doesn't necessarily mean that they have to buy my face. I just have to try my best, so be it, I'll go socialize first, you ......" Oakett glanced at the four people on Tran's side, squeezing the corners of his mouth with an expression of interest, "Take care of yourself." ”

And those who are familiar with Oakter know that he, a distant cousin who is not familiar with the world, can be regarded as offending his cousin who can help!

"Cousin Oakett, you know that Tran is like that, don't be like him!" Fudo squeezed out a smile on his face, intent on rounding the field.

Dilov, who had been arrogant in the past, also hurriedly echoed at this time, "Cousin Oakter, your identity is here, why do you have to be like this boy who hasn't grown up!" She even went so far as to disparage Tran to discourage Oakett.

Tran's face turned slightly pale, not only because of his previous anger, but also because of his previous anger, and a trace of regret for his father to grovel for him.

Oaket snorted and said coldly, "I'm very busy, there are so many things to do every day, if there is nothing more important, don't bother me recently......"

The bewitching woman among the nobles stared at Tran with a serious expression, and said earnestly, "You are Tran?" I saw you when I was young, and you were a cute kid at that time, why didn't you understand people at such a time? In front of so many people, who do you show your face to? Kindly want to help your cousin Oaker, but his tone is a little heavier, and he is treated like this by you, what you mean is that he doesn't care about the **** suffered in the Great Patriotic War? What a terrible thing to say! ”

Fodo and Dilove bit their lipes and pinched their palms and did not dare to refute, and the origin of this woman was also something they could not contradict. And more importantly, her words seem to be justified in teaching Tran how to behave, but in fact they represent Oakt's meaning, so where do they dare to disagree.

But at this moment, next to Tran, a voice spoke unhurriedly, "In the face of a soldier who wants to join the army to show his strengths and contribute to the Great Patriotic War, but he questioned whether he wants to win a share of wealth and wealth, isn't this a curse?" ”

"How much is blood worth in your eyes? What about courage and sacrifice, in your opinion, is it the value of the stupidity of chasing a medal after the fact? Isn't it just as ridiculous and pedantic in the eyes of those of you who only want to be safe and prosperous? ”

Who!?

Oakt and his followers instantly erected their ears and their eyes constricted.

The phrase is...... Laughing at them?

What a bold move!
