Chapter 625: The Governor's Words

Grantham couldn't help but smile bitterly when he saw that Fang Lang still seemed to be wary of himself, but at the same time, he had to admire this young man's youth.

Then Fang Lang picked up the wine glass in his hand, lightly touched Fang Lang's wine glass, let out a green and crisp light sound, and slowly tasted it before saying slowly:

"Since General Fang can bring the message to the other side through a friend, I have a sentence here that I want to trouble General Fang to convey on my behalf, I wonder if His Excellency the General can help?"

Hearing this, Fang Lang raised his eyebrows, and secretly said in his heart that it really had something to do with the other side. At the same time, he began to muttered in his heart, to say that with Granthong's identity, there was no way to pass on his words to the other side, Fang Lang didn't believe it.

So why didn't he go through his own channels and find himself, a Brazilian Chinese? Could it be that this is something that the British authorities do not want to know? It shouldn't be possible!

In the capacity of the other party, it will certainly not do anything to harm the interests of Britain. So what exactly does the other party want to bring? For a while, Fang Lang also couldn't understand what the other party was thinking about.

But the current situation is that if he brings a word to the other side, it is indeed within his ability, and if he is not even willing to help with this favor, Grantham has reason to doubt whether what he said earlier about being willing to help is true or false.

But this old boy doesn't say what he says directly, Fang Lang is also very worried that once he agrees, he will say something inappropriate, and when the time comes, it will be difficult for him to ride the tiger, whether to convey it or not!

I have to say that this old guy is not a simple guy, he set up Fang Lang in a few words, which is quite a dilemma.

After thinking about it for a while, Fang Lang still decided to take over the other party's job, after all, from the current point of view, Grantham is indeed the governor who hopes to solve the port city issue peacefully. Future history also bears this out.

"Oh! I thought it was a big deal! It turned out to be a matter of one sentence, no problem, I helped with this favor. I wonder if His Excellency the Governor is going to convey it in the form of a secret letter, or directly orally? ”

Hearing that Fang Lang readily agreed to his request, Grantham was also obviously relieved, and the smile on his face was a little kinder.

"No need for secret letters! If I fall into the hands of MI6, you still think that I am going to collaborate with the enemy! It's not a bad word, it's just that I'm not very suitable for direct contact right now. If I let the above know, I might think I'm nosy.

However, I do hope that the port city issue can be resolved peacefully, and even if the final solution of the port city issue cannot be directly determined at this time, I hope that the dispute can be put aside together with the other side. ”

This wave is more interested in what the other party wants to convey, although what the other party said about shelving the dispute is actually to delay this matter, but this is indeed a historical way to solve the problem of the port city.

"No problem, our position is completely consistent on the hope of a peaceful settlement of the Port City question, and I am deeply impressed by the efforts of His Excellency the Governor in this regard.

It is also my pleasure to be able to help both of you, and please be forthright about what Your Excellency Governor needs to convey. ”

For Grantham always not directly saying what this sentence was, Fang Lang also lost some patience and couldn't help but urge directly.

Hearing this, Grantham smiled, but quickly stroked his suit again, and his face returned to seriousness:

"Please also ask Your Excellency General to convey to the other side: The port city has always been rented by us, and one day it will be returned to the other party, and if the other party wants to unilaterally take back the port city, we will definitely wreak havoc and transfer funds before withdrawing, and in the end the other side can only get an empty shell.

And if they can wait until the contract expires according to the agreement to take back the port city, it is likely that they will get a complete port city. ”

When Grantham said this, his tone was firm and his expression was serious, which showed that the other party was very serious.

But Fang Lang's eyes were also fixed after hearing what the other party said. Good fellow, that's a proper threat! No wonder the other party does not communicate with the other party himself, but through himself.

This is to find a middleman to communicate and avoid head-on communication, there will be unnecessary confrontation! But if you think about it this way, it seems that you have the heart of a villain to live the belly of a gentleman, and the predecessors of my hometown are not this kind of people who don't know right from wrong.

Then again, this is not actually a threat to the other party, after all, what the other party said is the truth, if the hometown really wants to unilaterally recover the port city now, the British will definitely do the same, which is inevitable.

After just thinking about it for a while, Fang Lang decided to truthfully convey Grantham's words to his hometown, after all, this is the reality, and in Fang Lang's heart, he always believes that his current hometown needs a port city as a window.

It is more beneficial for the hometown to maintain the status quo in the port city in a short period of time.

"Your Excellency, your thoughts are very realistic, and your words are very frank, and I think that the other side will definitely think carefully about your words and respond positively.

Rest assured, I will contact my friend as soon as possible to relay your words to the senior on the other side. ”

After hearing Fang Lang's affirmative answer, Grantham also breathed a long sigh of relief, his face returned to relaxation, and he picked up his wine glass again and said to Fang Lang:

"Then thank you General Fang for your help. Rest assured! I will never let you help in vain, the matter about the museum land, it will be on me! ”

When Fang Lang heard this, he frowned, what do you mean, this is to use a piece of museum land and repay the favor of helping him spread the message.

How can it be so simple, although what you said in the past is true, but if you really meet someone who doesn't know right and wrong, it can be regarded as a threat to the other party, this is a big trouble, and now you are ready to send me away with a piece of land?

With a smile on his face, he raised his wine glass, clinked glasses with Grantham and said:

"Haha...... His Excellency the Governor laughed, the matter of the museum land is a commercial activity, how can you trouble His Excellency the Governor!

I am willing to help His Excellency the Governor to spread the word, and to take the corresponding risks, simply because we are friends, and if we add this exchange of benefits to this friendship, will not we make our friendship sour?

Therefore, His Excellency the Governor should not get too involved in the affairs of this museum site, lest he leave any bad tricks in the future. I will ask my subordinates to go through the normal application process with the government, and if the application is in your office, please also give instructions according to the actual situation.

Don't do anything illegal because of our friendship. ”

When Grantham heard Fang Lang's words, he couldn't help but show a wry smile, he was not a fool, how could he not understand what Fang Lang meant! If the application for this museum land really came to him, if he didn't agree, wouldn't the friendship he and Fang Lang talk about become a joke?

In this way, Fang Lang can not only retain Grantham's favor, but also easily obtain the land for the museum. Even Ge Lianghong had to give Fang Lang a thumbs up and secretly say a little fox.

Seeing that this favor seemed to be inextricable, Grantham could only shrug his shoulders helplessly and said:

"Alright! You have a point, so do what you want! ”

After speaking, he seemed to let go of his thoughts, picked up the chopsticks again, and began to taste the food on the table slowly and methodically.

Seeing this, Fang Lang understood that the other party had achieved today's goal, so he began to eat with peace of mind. He didn't continue to discuss other issues with the other party, and the two began to talk and laugh.

The meal ended quickly in a friendly and harmonious atmosphere, this meal was considered to have achieved its goal for Grantham, and it was not without harvest for Fang Lang, at least when his own museum construction application was applied to Grantham's desk, he would definitely not stop it, this was the tacit understanding between the two.

After returning to the hotel suite, Fang Lang directly asked Qi Qingshan to inform Fangyuan Group that in the name of the company, he would apply to the Hong Kong government for a piece of land for the construction of a headquarters building and a land for the construction of a private museum.

Today, having just had lunch with His Excellency the Governor, and if he submits this application the next day, he is confident that the staff of the Hong Kong Government, if they are not deaf or blind, will know what to do with this application.

As for promising to pass the word to the other side, he didn't plan to do it immediately, because, although this matter was urgent, it was not in a hurry. He was always a little worried that the British government in Hong Kong would use his channel to convey information and do something along the vine.

Now the two sides are in a tense state after all, and if they don't do it well, they will be used by British intelligence agencies.

Therefore, for the next two days, Fang Lang did not continue to stay at the Peninsula Hotel, but wandered around the harbor city area under the protection of the guards, stopping from time to time to check with binoculars. Sometimes, I would have discussions with my subordinates, as if I was discussing where it would be better to build my own museum.

At the same time, his guards carefully watched their neighborhood for anyone to follow them, but surprisingly, no one was found following them for two days in a row.

But Fang Lang's intuition told him that this was not the case, and there were still several pairs of eyes watching them around them. The guards couldn't find them, which only showed that the other party was a real master.

Seeing this situation, Fang Lang thought about it for a while, then took a boat back to the Admiralty Naval Base, handled military affairs for a day, and then sent a few telegrams from the warship, and returned to the Peninsula Hotel with a relieved state.

Then, he began to take the convoy around the port city area while tasting the port city food everywhere.

"Sir, could he have already passed on the information by telegram?"

In an upstairs office of the Hong Kong City Police Force, a British chief superintendent is reporting to his commander on Fang Lang's whereabouts in the past few days.

"It's very likely, but whether or not he's already got the information out there, we're going to keep an eye on him at all times.

A rear admiral who can get in touch with the Brazilian admiral across the street is a very worthy target. ”

The head of the political department, who was full of blonde hair and hung the rank of assistant police commissioner, looked at the police officer in front of him and said in a serious tone.

The British Chief Superintendent also said with a little hesitation when he heard this:

"But sir, he is a guest of His Excellency the Governor, and he had lunch with Mr. Governor two days ago, and if His Excellency the Governor knows that we are spying on his guests, we will be in great trouble."

"Trouble? What's the big trouble? Don't forget, we are MI6's Port City Division, and our role is to keep an eye on any suspicious targets.

As soon as the Brazilian rear admiral arrived in the port city, he said directly in front of all the reporters that he could help us and convey the will for peace to the other side. What does this mean, this is telling us that he has an intelligence channel to contact the other side.

If this guy is a spy, it would be a dereliction of duty if we couldn't completely grasp the whereabouts of the other party. Do you understand? ”

The head of the Political Department with the rank of Assistant Commissioner of Police looked at the subordinates in front of him and said slowly.

Although he explained to his subordinates why he wanted to spy on Fang Lang, he skipped the relationship between His Excellency the Governor mentioned by the other party, obviously because he didn't want to make a big deal out of it, but he wanted this credit.

Being able to be a subordinate of the Chief Superintendent is obviously not a stupid person, he is very aware of the risks of this matter, and if he is not careful, he may fall into it, and then his own commander will definitely not admit this plan, and he may become the most suitable candidate for the black pot.
