Chapter 0415 Chancellor of the Exchequer
"Everything, the past and present of this badge. "Downing heard from Jessica about the past of this badge, but it was incomplete, and the most important thing was that the present of this badge was quite important for his next plans.
Jennings shrugged. "Okay. He told the employer about the badge's past, which wasn't much different from what Jessica had told and soon got to the present.
"The Red Eagle family has long been a thing of the past, and now ...... No one will recognize this badge, let alone think of this badge, my family has declined, just like ordinary people, and there are not many people who still carry this badge, very few to be exact, so little that I am the only one. โ
"You're the only one left in the Red Eagle Family now?" Downing felt as if his efforts in this area were about to come to naught, and if Jennings was left alone, it would be of no value.
"Don't get me wrong, I'm talking about the fact that there aren't many people willing to carry this badge, and there are quite a few people left in the Red Eagle family. Jennings corrected the young man's statement. "Like my father, and my uncle. โ
Jennings' vein represents the decline of the Red Eagle family, but the side branches of the Red Eagle family are not finished, and his uncles will also have something to dig into. "Well, your uncles don't want to carry the crest of the Red Eagle family?"
Jennings acquiesced. "They have discarded the coat of arms of the Red Eagle family and now have a new family, Verona, and also have a new coat of arms. โ
"You don't have a good relationship with those distant relatives of yours?" Tang Ning dug up useful information step by step, and the young man's distant relatives would be a good breakthrough.
"It's true, they usually look down on us conformists, but there are some exceptions. Jennings' expression was lonely, and there was a sudden sense of relief. "Uncle Sammy is a nice guy, he never minds our stubbornness and usually gives us some help. โ
"Mr. Sammy is a good man, he will get good luck. Downing set his sights on the former Red Eagle family known as Sammy. "It sounds like he should have a lot of accomplishments. โ
"That's right, he is now the minister of the Duchy of Harris, he has a considerable status and power, and people respect him, and the people of the Verona family respect him very much. Jennings got up and took off his hat as he said that.
Downing also took off his hat. "I would love to meet this benevolent gentleman and express my highest respect to him in person, and I wonder if it would be too presumptuous. โ
It's a bit fast, take a stranger to Uncle Sammy, Jennings smiles wryly. "I don't think I have that much power yet, Uncle Sammy is usually very busy, and even people from our family usually rarely see him, unless ......"
"Unless what?" Downing knew that the opportunity was coming, unless it meant that the road was not completely blocked, and he was good at seizing the opportunity.
"Uncle Sammy never misses a weekly family meeting unless it's the next family meeting, but it's a family meeting, and sometimes I have a hard time getting an invite. Jennings said embarrassedly. "It's just because I'm still clinging to the Red Eagle family, and you're just an outsider now. โ
"No, we're friends now, and I think you'll be able to get a chance to participate. "Downing encourages young people. "You should go to that Uncle Sami of yours and explain these things, and if I can, I'll invest here. โ
Now that there is a reason, it is a good opportunity for someone to invest here, and if Uncle Sami is told about this, he should not refuse, and the people of those families want the Verona family to continue to develop, mainly financially, and they will definitely not refuse.
"No problem, I can try it. Jennings happily agreed.
After a day of small talk with the young man, he finally got more precise information that Sammy was the Chancellor of the Exchequer of the Principality of Harris, and this was no ordinary position, holding the finances of a country, which only those with a high reputation could do.
At the end of the tour, the carriage returned to the hotel, and as the two young men left, Bella rubbed her eyebrows and said, "You shouldn't use us to support Krees, he is always too aggressive and uncomfortable." โ
Taylor also looked a little overwhelmed. "You wouldn't have thought that he would want to kiss me, but thankfully I found a reason to avoid it. โ
Downing, of course, would not take advantage of the two girls again, he went back to the room, folded a white bird out of the paper in the room, and when the light shrouded, the bird left through the window, and this time it was Sara who came out.
Sarah, who became a father, should have had the sweetest time now, and the business on the Eternal Continent has developed to a whole new stage, controlling almost every important business, such a person invests in the Principality of Harris, and can even meet Grand Duke Harris V, but there is no need to be in such a hurry, you have to take it one step at a time.
Sara was promoted to father, he saw the growth of his children, and Hannah was no longer the kind mother she used to be, which was the happiest thing for him.
However, she has not received any instructions from the leader, which makes Sara feel uncomfortable, he is used to working under the leader, and he is always able to do anything.
Having given the child to his wife, Sara returned to his office, and now he has begun to grow a beard, like a big man, his beard is quite neatly trimmed, and he does business with others, and people always trust those who look quite stable, and young people are not easily accepted.
Opening the window and looking at the night, he felt a little uneasy in his heart, maybe the boss had found someone who could replace him and forgot about himself.
At this time, a bird made of white paper flew into the window, landed on his shoulder, reached out to open the paper, and when he saw the words on it, Sara was like a lion suddenly awakened. "Hannah, I'm ready to go, I need to get out of here and head to the Duchy of Harris. โ
Mรกrquez and Wyatt each returned to their hometowns, and as Downing had expected, they looked at the places they had been, and after doing so, they hurried to the Duchy of Harris, where they still had a lot of work to do.
The family feast came quickly, and Jennings completed his task, and when he told his uncle Sammy about it, he was invited to the family meeting, and this time to everyone, and the distant relatives who hated the poor and loved the rich and the poor showed respect to the young man.
This was a great gift from Downing to the young man, and it allowed the young man to gain the respect of the family, because the young man was sincere and kind enough.
The banquet was chosen to be held at the home of one of the uncles, and the family banquet had several strangers, which should not have been present, but because Jennings had brought in the investment, Sammy, as Chancellor of the Exchequer, of course, needed to call some big people to accompany him.
Sitting on the sofa at the banquet site, Tang Ning held a wine glass and toasted to his companion Sarah, the two were like friends, not superior-subordinate relationship.
Jennings came over with a white-haired old man, dressed rather solemnly, and flanked by four equally old men.
"Uncle Sammy, let me introduce you, these are Mr. Downing and Mr. Sarah. Jennings enthusiastically introduced to both sides. "Mr. Downing, Mr. Sarah, this is my uncle Sammy. โ
Downing and Sara stood up and took off their hats and saluted. "Mr. Sammy, I have heard a lot about you from Jennings, and good people are blessed. โ
Then there was the matter of investment, Sarah's money now had enough money to buy ten Duchy of Harris, if he wanted to, Downing's wealth to be exact.
"Mr. Sammy, I have heard about the Safari Festival and I want to sponsor it, and I will cover the cost of the entire Safari Festival, but I need some places, and the details of the Safari Festival will have to be made by me. โ
The expressions of the four people next to Sammy were a little different, but they couldn't guess why, they whispered in Sammy's ear, and after a moment Sammy responded: "This requires a considerable investment, most likely more than 10 million Caesars." โ
"It doesn't matter, I'm willing to pay 20 million Caesars. Sarah, now confident and mature, remembered what the chief professor had said to him, and handed over a check. "It's a deposit of five million, and if we can, we can sign the contract now. โ
The speed is quite fast, and the other party's intention to invest is quite strong, and even here it can be decided, originally thought that the other party just had such intentions, and it would take a long time to negotiate, and it seemed that he underestimated the other party's ability, Sami was embarrassed and said: "I'm sorry, the safari festival is presided over by the Grand Duke himself, I don't have the right to decide, I have to ask the above for instructions." โ
"No problem, I'm willing to wait, but it's only two days, and if I don't get a response after two days, I'll have to invest my money in other projects, you know things are always changing in the business world, I can't let my money sit in the bank, that's the stupidest thing to do." Sara placed the check on the table. "It's just a greeting gift. โ
The Verona family on the side saw this, and Jennings brought a banker, a big banker who didn't even care about five million Caesars, and they began to wonder how Jennings knew the big man.
"The money was made because of Jennings, who was an honest and kind guy who made my trip quite enjoyable. Downing glanced at Jennings and patted the young man on the shoulder, he could expect Jennings to become the brightest star in the family in the future, and no one dared to ignore him easily.
Sammy had the guests entertained, then left with four companions, and they returned to a meeting room where they could talk, and someone finally couldn't take it anymore.
"God, someone can casually come up with 20 million Caesars to invest, your nephew is a big surprise, I thought it was just a small investment. โ
Everyone here thinks so, and Sammy is still wondering if this is a reliable thing, because it came so suddenly that he, the chancellor of the exchequer, is a little at a loss.
"He doesn't seem to be a fake, no one would joke with five million Caesars as a greeting gift, it doesn't make sense, so there's no need to doubt it. โ
"Well, then, we'll have to meet the Grand Duke together tonight. "Sammy made a decision, he couldn't decide it himself.
As everyone left, the room fell silent, and two figures came out of the corner, revealing their real bodies, Marquez and Wyatt, who had arrived at the place.
