Five days passed quickly, and during this period, the Morgan family never contacted Fang Lang again, and Fang Lang didn't care about it.

After all, his idea of wanting to take a stake in General Electric will definitely cause discomfort to the Morgan consortium, and the other party does not reply to Fang Lang in time, and he must also express an attitude to Fang Lang.

As for when there will be another opportunity to talk, or whether the two sides will find a step down, it is not clear.

In the past five days, Fang Lang has not been idle, in addition to taking the opportunity to inspect various branches of the Global Group, he also introduced the investigation department of the Fangyuan Group to the Global Group.

Having further strengthened his control over the Global Group, Fang Lang knew very well in his heart that with the launch of the European aid plan, the Global Group would definitely achieve rapid development.

In particular, the steel companies and shipyards of the Universal Group are planned to start a large-scale acquisition spree around the world, expand production capacity and acquire factories. Expand Global Steel and Global Shipbuilding into one of the world's leading enterprises.

In this case, the lower waves must strengthen their ability to control the industries under their hands.

In addition to the establishment of the Global Group Investigation Department, the financial control of the subsidiaries of the Global Group has been strengthened again, and a special accounting firm has been set up separately, and excellent professional accountants have been recruited from all over the world to supervise and audit the finances of its major companies.

At the same time, after the tireless efforts of Zolf Henri day and night, the preparations for the dinner were finally successfully completed in five days.

On the same day, at about five o'clock in the afternoon, guests began to enter, and Fang Lang, as the boss, did not greet these guests outside the manor, but Wan Chongxin was responsible for receiving them at the gate of the manor.

It's not that Fang Lang is snubbing the guests, in fact, Fang Lang is actually not just to meet with these partners of the Global Group to discuss business.

In addition to participating in the construction of the company in the early stage, he actually did not participate too much in the actual business management of the company, in this case, he personally came forward to meet with the bosses of each partner, although it would make each boss feel valued.

But it will also have a certain impact on the actual business host like Wan Chongxin, so the purpose of his dinner was to hold this dinner with the Rockefeller family and the Morgan family from the beginning.

Therefore, he is only going to come forward in person to thank all the guests, and the rest of the time is to start negotiations with the Morgan family again.

However, things often don't go according to his plan, just when Fang Lang accompanies Lilith and Vivian in the master room of the manor while tasting the red wine and falling in love.

The new butler, Zolf Henry, knocked on the door in a hurry, his face flushed with excitement, and he said in an excited tone:

"Sir, sir, General Marshall is here, do you need to come forward to receive him personally?"

When I was farming with my two girlfriends, I was stunned when I heard this, and asked with some puzzlement?

"General Marshall? That General Marshall? ”

Fang Lang himself is a rear admiral in Brazil, so he is a little surprised by the generals in the army, not to mention that he is still an American general, and he obviously has no subordinate relationship with him, so he doesn't care too much.

He still thought in his heart that the other party was one of the behind-the-scenes shareholders of Shata Company, and it didn't matter if he came forward to receive him, but he didn't need to be very eager to paste it.

This will make you look very low.

Seeing Fang Lang's obviously casual attitude, Zolf Henry hurriedly explained:

"Mr. George Catlett Marshall, a five-star general of the United States and former chief of staff of the U.S. Army."

As soon as he heard that it was Marshall, a five-star general who had served as the chief of staff of the US Army, Fang Lang immediately understood the identity of the other party. This is a real big man, the future US Secretary of State, the initiator of the European aid package.

Even the later European aid program was directly named after the "Marshall Plan".

He never imagined that the banquet he held would lead to such a big fish, and he thought that it was the European aid plan he proposed later, and it was obvious that the other party must also have a close relationship with the major consortia involved in this plan.

Appearing directly here this time must also be related to the communication between the Morgan consortium and himself, which made Fang Lang frown, although Fang Lang wanted to participate in the European aid plan.

But he doesn't want to get too involved in American politics, after all, he also has the status of a Brazilian rear admiral, and a close relationship with such a big man in the United States can bring great benefits to himself, but it will also bring some negative influences to a greater or lesser extent.

However, since the other party has already taken the initiative to come to the door, it is obvious that Fang Lang will not avoid it, so that he will offend the incoming US Secretary of State, the nominal leader of the European aid plan.

Therefore, he had to pat Lilith and Vivien, who were leaning against him, and motioned for the two to get up and go down with him to meet each other.

Seeing this, Zolf Henry hurriedly gestured to the two maids outside the door, before Fang Lang could understand what it meant. Zolf Henry, who was the housekeeper, had already walked quickly in front of Fang Lang and carefully began to sort out Fang Lang's appearance.

The suit that had become a little wrinkled due to the intimacy with Lilith and Vivien was tidied up, and the two maids also came to Lilith and Vivien to tidy up their respective outfits.

This made Lilith and Vivien very uncomfortable, and they thought that the two maids were going to do something.

Fortunately, Fang Lang has accepted this kind of service from Zolf Henry every day in the past few days, and he already has a certain immunity, and after understanding what the other party meant, he just opened his arms casually and let Zolf Henry sort it out for himself.

Lilith wanted to excuse herself at first, but it wasn't until Fang Lang nodded at her that she had to follow Fang Lang's example and let the maid serve her.

However, Vivian seemed to feel very novel, and after understanding what the other party wanted to do, she directly followed Fang Lang's appearance and watched the maid sort out the clothes on her body for her.

While accepting Zolf Henry's service, Fang Lang said casually:

"Where is Mr. Marshall?"

Zoelf Henry, who was holding a horsehair brush in his hand, replied while concentrating on arranging Fang Lang's suit:

"Mr. Marshall has already entered the door, and he should have entered the banquet hall now, and Mr. Wan is coming forward to receive the other party."

Hearing this, Fang Lang nodded abruptly.

At this moment, Zolf Henry couldn't help but admire Fang Lang a little in his heart, after all, even an English butler like him who paid attention to etiquette was a little panicked when he heard that a big man like General Marshall suddenly came here.

However, his young new boss behaved very calmly, exuding a confident glow, which made him a little ashamed.

Thinking about following the original boss, but he has never had the opportunity to contact the big people at this level, he is extremely glad for his choice at this moment.

In fact, Fang Lang was thinking in his heart what the purpose of the future secretary of state's uninvited visit was, and it was certain that it must be related to the European aid plan, but what to discuss with himself made Fang Lang a little confused.

Fang Lang's suit was originally specially prepared for tonight's dinner, so there was no need to rearrange it, and Zolf Henry finished the folds he saw in three or two clicks.

Turning his head, he saw that the two maids had also finished the work at hand, so he whispered to Fang Lang:

"Sir, it's all right."

Hearing this, Fang Lang turned his head and glanced at the two beauties beside him, and when he saw that they were also ready, he said a little casually:

"In that case, then we will go and meet our former Chief of Army Staff."

When he said this, of course, he also hoped to make Lilith and Vivien less nervous, after all, a retired general, no matter how high his rank was, was definitely not as deterrent as a serving general.

After hearing Fang Lang's words, the two girls were still a little nervous, but they really relaxed slightly, after all, it was the first time for the two girls to participate in such a banquet as hosts.

At first, they thought it was just a simple reception, but now they found that things were obviously not as simple as they imagined.

An American former five-star general has already explained a lot of problems by coming uninvited, and of course they are very worried that their performance will affect Fang Lang's face.

As for the two sisters accompanying Fang Lang to such a banquet together, they didn't take it to heart.

Listening to Fang Lang's somewhat casual tone, the two slowly relaxed, holding Fang Lang's left and right arms respectively, and slowly walked towards the banquet venue.

When Fang Lang and a few people came to the banquet site, they quickly attracted the attention of everyone in the venue.

First of all, it was Fang Lang who walked into the venue and did not enter through the guest entrance, obviously, this young Asian was the host of today's banquet.

Secondly, it is because of the two beautiful and moving beauties around Fang Lang, these two are rare beauties, but at this moment, they are holding the arms of this Asian young man left and right.

If Fang Lang is a middle-aged man, everyone may wonder if Fang Lang will be the father of two beautiful women, and men who think they are qualified may start to talk.

But Fang Lang's age was here, and everyone knew that these two people must be this young Asian woman, and everyone cast envious glances at Fang Lang.

In this regard, Fang Lang didn't seem to care, at this moment, he had already seen at a glance, surrounded by many people, as if the stars were holding the moon, an elderly white man with gray hair.

The other party obviously also noticed the movement here, and at this moment his eyes were looking in the direction of Fang Lang, and the eyes of the two met in the air, just at this glance, the two seemed to have traveled through thousands of years of time and found the right goal.

Fang Lang smiled and nodded slightly at the other party, who also smiled kindly and nodded at Fang Lang. Then the two walked towards each other tacitly.

In his previous life, Fang Lang didn't know much about Marshall, only that he proposed the European Recovery Plan when he was Secretary of State. And in this life, when he was ready to participate in this plan, he focused on conducting a detailed investigation of him.

Therefore, the current Fang Lang actually knew Marshall very well, a late general, and it was not until the age of 55 that he finally obtained the status of American brigadier general.

But at the age of 58 he was appointed chief of staff of the United States Army, and everyone knows that the rank of general is more difficult to promote, but Marshall is the complete opposite, it took him a full thirty-nine years to rise from a cadet to a brigadier general.

However, it took only three years to go from brigadier general to provisional army chief of staff with the rank of general, and it was after he became army chief of staff that Germany began to invade Poland.

He keenly saw that the United States would inevitably be involved in the war, so he immediately began an active arms expansion war, rapidly expanding the American army, which originally had only 200,000 regular troops.

By the end of the war, the number of U.S. troops had soared to nearly nine million.

He is also one of the few American generals in the United States who has not experienced actual combat on the front line, and although he has experienced two world wars, he has served in staff positions most of the time.

is such a person, but his prestige in the American army is incomparable, George Patton, Eisenhower, and MacArthur are all famous generals discovered by him.

In 1943, the U.S. Congress agreed to grant him the rank of "Field Marshal," which had never appeared in U.S. history, but he flatly refused.

It was because of his refusal that the United States never established the rank of marshal again.

For the fact that he was about to meet such a great historical figure, it was impossible to say that Fang Lang was not nervous at all.

But after so many years of training, he has also become a moody figure, no matter how high history evaluates Marshall, he can't take the initiative to post it.

After all, this will only make the other party look down on him, so he behaved very well throughout the whole process. He had seen Marshall's photos before, so he was able to spot them in the crowd at a glance.

The lively scene around him didn't have much impact on Fang Lang at all, because most of the people around him didn't know him. While others knew that he might be the owner of the estate, they didn't know his specific information.

Therefore, it is not easy to take the initiative to get up, so I can only inquire about Fang Lang's identity with the executives of the Global Group around me, and when they learn that Fang Lang is the behind-the-scenes boss of the Global Group, they are all very surprised.

You must know that it is very rare for an Asian American to achieve such a great achievement in the United States, which is severely racist.

Next, what surprised everyone even more happened in front of everyone's eyes, the hero and pride of the American people, General Marshall, who took the initiative to appear at the dinner, actually walked out of the crowd and walked straight to the other party.

This is more shocking than many people learning that the boss of Universal Group is of Asian descent. After all, several of the executives at Universal Group are Asian.

Just when everyone was still surprised, Fang Lang and General Marshall had already clasped hands.

As the host, Fang Lang, of course, couldn't lose his courtesy, and said very enthusiastically:

"It's a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Marshall. Your presence will make the humble house shine! ”

Fang Lang knew very well that General Marshall was a China expert, because as early as 1924, he was sent to his hometown of Jinmen and served as the deputy commander and chief staff officer of the 15th Infantry Regiment of the US Army stationed in Tianjin.

During this period, he learned Chinese, so Fang Lang was not worried that the other party could not understand what he said.

Sure enough, after General Marshall heard Fang Lang's words, he responded directly in Chinese:

"Mr. Fang, I took the liberty of it, I hope it won't disturb you!"

Fang Lang also hurriedly smiled:

"Haha....... I can't invite a distinguished guest like you, so how can I bother. ”

Then he looked at the more and more people around him, glanced at each other and said:

"I wonder if Mr. Marshall would be interested in coming upstairs with me?"
