If you really let yourself be the Minister of the Navy, although the position and rank will rise, this will make you a civilian general, how can you really have a heavy army now.

At the same time, these words also made Fang Lang feel quite uncomfortable in his heart, although he has a soul of later generations, it does not affect his love for Brazil and regard Brazil as his motherland.

Now an American general told himself that he should be able to at least serve as Secretary of the Navy. If this is a joke made by an ordinary friend, everyone will laugh and laugh and pass.

But Marshall's identity is not a person who would joke about this kind of thing, and the other party's words obviously mean something, if the other party really has the ability to make himself the Secretary of the Navy.

That wave will be very vigilant, which shows that the United States has a very huge influence on Brazil's military. This is very dangerous in Fang Lang's view, and to put it more seriously, it is even a violation of Brazil's sovereignty.

Although Fang Lang thought so in his heart, he wouldn't show it, after all, he was now also a hardcore pro-American. If you easily show your attitude in front of Marshall, if you don't do it well, you will be targeted and excluded in the military circles.

If you don't know if you are eligible to participate in the European Support Program this time, he can only smile and shake his head:

"Haha....... Mr. Marshall laughed, the Secretary of the Navy is not as comfortable as I am now. The feeling of being able to command an aircraft carrier to gallop across the ocean is something I've always longed for.

Moreover, business belongs to business, work belongs to work, it is better to separate! ”

When Marshall heard this, he understood what Fang Lang meant, for the loss of business, Fang Lang only agreed to compensate for the business, and it seems that Fang Lang still did not agree to the compensation proposal of the Morgan consortium!

After knowing Fang Lang's attitude, General Marshall did not show any abnormality, but said with a smile:

"Haha..... That's right, Mr. Fang has seen it thoroughly, and Mr. Fang's current strength in the Brazilian Navy doesn't actually have any impact on the Minister of the Navy, right? ”

The other party just said that it was right, and then said no more. As for what this sentence is true, everyone knows it. As for the latter words, Fang Lang just listened to them and did not make a transitional interpretation.

Whether it is Marshall, Fang Lang, or the Brazilian military, they all know very well that the commander of Fang Lang, the aircraft carrier battle group, now actually controls more than half of the strength of the Brazilian Navy.

But this situation is not what the Brazilian military wants to change now, or can change.

Therefore, for General Marshall's words, Fang Lang just smiled and didn't say anything.

Just then there was a knock at the door, and the voice of Zolf Henry, the butler, came in from outside the door.

"Sir, Mr. Alvin Rockefeller, Chairman of the Rockefeller Corporation, has arrived!"

Hearing this, Fang Lang and General Marshall glanced at each other, then got up and walked towards the door. As soon as he opened the door, he saw Wan Chongxin accompanied three men in suits to the door of the reception room.

One of the white middle-aged men with a civilized staff and two beards looked very imposing, and just by looking at Fang Lang, he was sure that the other party was the chairman of the Rockefeller Company that the butler said.

Fang Lang didn't expect that his invitation would invite such a big man, it seems that the Rockefeller consortium is also a little interested in his global group!

Fang Lang, as the host, hurriedly greeted him warmly and stretched out his right hand to Alvin Rockefeller:

"Welcome! Mr. Rockefeller! ”

Alvin Rockefeller, who was on the other side, casually handed the civilization staff in his hand to the assistant behind him, grabbed Fang Lang's right hand with laughter, and said in a bold voice:

"Haha...... Thank you Mr. Fang for the invitation, I have long wanted to get to know you. However, Mr. Fang is really busy, and he has very little time in the United States, so I really can't find an opportunity.

This time we became neighbors, so we should move around a lot in the future. ”

Feeling the strength coming from Alvin Rockefeller's hand, Fang Lang heard the subtext of the other party, but unfortunately the people of the Morgan family were not here at this time.

"Haha...... Mr. Rockefeller is right, we are all neighbors, and we really need to move around a lot in the future, so don't bother me when the time comes! ”

Hearing Fang Lang's words, Mr. Rockefeller was thoughtful, and then said indifferently:

"Everyone helps each other! Don't say anything troublesome or not! ”

In just a few words of exchange, the two sides seemed to have reached a consensus, which made General Marshall on the side have to look at the young and excessive Brazilian rear admiral in front of him again.

It is not easy for such a young man to have today's achievements, and the other party was able to reach a consensus with the chairman of the famous Rockefeller consortium in front of him in a few words.

Thinking that when he was the other party's age, he was still struggling at the bottom, and he had to admire Fang Lang even more, and Fang Lang's status in his mind naturally rose a few points.

After the greetings, Fang Lang, of course, would not forget General Marshall on the side, and politely introduced to Rockefeller:

"Mr. Rockefeller, let me introduce you, this is also my distinguished guest today, General Marshall."

Needless to say, Fang Lang knew very well in his heart that Rockefeller and Marshall must have known each other, after all, they were both core members of the European aid program.

Although Marshall said that he had only just returned from his hometown, it was impossible for him to be able to reach Marshall's position without coming into contact with a big family like Rockefeller.

The truth was as he expected, and after listening to his explanation, General Marshall laughed and said:

"Haha..... Mr. Fang, Alvin and I are old friends. ”

As he spoke, he shook his right hand with Mr. Alvin Rockefeller on the other side, and gave him a big hug.

This made Fang Lang can't help but raise his eyebrows, thinking that it is no wonder that this General Marshall can become the US Secretary of State in the future, seeing the close relationship and title between the other party and the Rockefeller consortium, the two are obviously very close.

Mr. Rockefeller on the other side also laughed and hugged Marshall and said:

"Haha..... George, didn't you say you went to China? When did this come back? ”

The hug between the two middle-aged men was short and powerful, and when he heard Alvin Rockefeller's question, Marshall, who had just let go of each other, said indifferently:

"My mission in Huaguo failed, so I had to run back in disgrace. This time, I heard that Mr. Fang was holding a banquet here, so I came over to join in the fun! ”

Rockefeller would not believe this, if it really failed, how could Marshall still be in the mood to come over to attend some banquet, obviously with some purpose.

But obviously the other party didn't want to reveal it directly, so he didn't want to keep an eye on it, but when the other party made a joke, he smiled indifferently:

"I knew you were going to come to Mr. Fang's banquet, so we should have come together!"

Fang Lang saw that the two of them were almost polite, so he made a gesture of invitation to the two.

"Haha...... Since everyone is an old friend, it is really good, everyone please. ”

Hearing this, both of them nodded, and Rockefeller casually said to the two behind him:

"Find a place to sit!"

Zolf Henry, the butler on the side, hurriedly took over the conversation and said to the two people who came with Mr. Rockefeller:

"Two gentlemen, please come to me!"

As he spoke, he made a gesture of please, and guided the two to the next room to sit down.

General Marshall and Alvin Rockefeller took the lead in striding towards the room where Fang Lang and the two had just come out, and Wan Chongxin, who had come over with Mr. Rockefeller, lowered his voice and said to Fang Lang:

"Boss, there's something I need to report to you."

Fang Lang was stunned when he heard this, and he didn't understand how Wan Chongxin could report to himself at this time, but he didn't refuse, but said sorry to the two people who entered the room, and then turned his head to Wan Chongxin again and asked:

"What's wrong?"

Alvin Rockefeller naturally knew what Wan Chongxin wanted to report, he smiled quietly and nodded to Fang Lang, patted Marshall's arm and walked into the room.

You must know that Alvin Rockefeller sold a lot of favors to Fang Lang just now, at this time, of course, he hopes that the other party will receive this news as soon as possible.

After all, it now seems that this banquet is obviously not a simple neighborhood housewarming banquet. The sooner the other party receives this favor, the better it will be for him.

Seeing the two of them enter the room, Wan Chongxin slowly opened his mouth and told Fang Lang everything that had just happened downstairs.

Hearing that at the banquet he held, someone actually made racist remarks about himself and his woman, which made him furious, and his face turned blue instantly.

Suppressing the anger in his heart, he asked Wan Chongxin:

"What kind of company is this Kohl Industries? How deep is the cooperation with us? ”

"Boss, Kohl Industries is the company that provided us with penicillin production equipment in the first place. At present, the pesticide and fertilizer production equipment purchased by Brazilis from the United States. ”

Hearing this, Fang Lang was stunned, isn't this the company of General Clark's wife's mother's family? With the friendship between himself and John J. Clark, coupled with the relationship between General Clark and now that General Clark is managing the military insurance company for himself, and Mrs. Clark's help to him, Fang Lang is really a little embarrassed.

If you want to say whether Fang Lang will be grateful to Cole for taking such a big risk to provide him with penicillin production line. Answer: Yes.

But the object of Fang Lang's gratitude was indeed Mrs. Clark, and Cole Industries actually provided this set of equipment for Mrs. Clark's face.

And I also paid the corresponding purchase price according to the market price, and we are just a normal trade relationship.

But this company is indeed Mrs. Clark's mother's company, which made Fang Lang hesitate a little. Suddenly, Fang Lang looked at Wan Chongxin as if he had thought of something:

"If this guy named Charlie Cole is a crazy racist, what does he think of General Clark, an Indian-born uncle?"

Wan Chongxin obviously didn't expect Fang Lang's problem, and he didn't discriminate against the incident itself, but paid attention to how this guy treated his uncle.

He obviously didn't understand this situation, so he could only shrug his shoulders and say to Fang Lang:

"I'm sorry, boss, I didn't know about this, if necessary, I'll arrange for someone to investigate it now."

At this time, Fang Lang also calmed down, although he was very angry about being racially discriminated against, but this kind of thing is actually a common phenomenon in the United States now.

That is, he is rich and powerful now, and ordinary people will not and dare not put this kind of discrimination on the surface, this young man named Charlie Cole is obviously a brainless fool who would do such a thing.

With his current position, it is too simple to punish such an idiot.

Besides, now is not the time to make a move, and since such a thing has happened, he estimates that General Clark and his good brother John J. Clark will definitely contact him to express his attitude.

You can wait for things to ferment further, see the follow-up progress, and then decide how to deal with it!

"You just said that Mr. Rockefeller also expressed his opinion on this matter, right?"

"Yes, Mr. Rockefeller was in the banquet hall, instructing his assistants to take stock of the cooperation between the Rockefeller consortium and the Cole Company. It is said that it is necessary to take a good look at whether it is appropriate to cooperate with such a company. ”

Hearing this, Fang Lang understood that this was Mr. Rockefeller selling his favors, and a person like Mr. Rockefeller would definitely have a very significant impact on the operation of Cole Company if he expressed such an opinion in public.

If you don't do it, this company will directly lose a large number of orders.

Thinking of this, Fang Lang nodded and said with a slight smile:

"Now that Lilith has made a statement on our behalf, let's first re-examine the partnership with Cole Industries according to Lilith's opinion!

As for the pesticide and fertilizer production equipment required by Nice Company, can it also be directly released for bidding? ”

Fang Lang is not able to directly act against Cole Industries now, but since Lilith, as the hostess, has already expressed her attitude on the spot, of course the Universal Group has to make some moves.

Such an action is really normal business practice, and no one can raise any objections. The company did not retaliate against the other party, but only terminated and discriminated against the cooperation of its own company, and no one could say anything about such a thing.

As for how to deal with this Charlie Cole later, it depends on the subsequent development of the matter.

Just as Fang Lang and Wan Chongxin were explaining how to deal with this matter, Lilith appeared at the staircase of the reception room with Mr. Morgan and the three of them.

happened to hear Fang Lang's explanation to Wan Chongxin, obviously Fang Lang did not blame himself for his own assertions, but did not hesitate to support his ideas, which made Lilith's heart grateful.

However, she knew that it was not suitable to show it at this time, after all, she was now taking Fang Lang's distinguished guest.

Therefore, he said directly and quietly:

"My dear, Mr. Morgan has arrived."

Hearing Lilith's voice, Fang Lang hurriedly raised his eyes and saw that the three heads of the Morgan family with their female companions were walking towards him with a smile on their faces under the leadership of Lilith.

Seeing this scene, Fang Lang smiled and apologized to a few people:

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, there are more guests today, and I couldn't receive them at the door, I hope you don't mind."
