Otilia sat up lazily from the bed and found that Tommy, who had woken up before her, had once again turned off the alarm clock and pulled the heavy curtains open to allow the sun to wake him up at the end of the morning.

The sky outside was clear like a sapphire, and she put on her pajamas and walked to the quaint window, and completely opened the curtains, and she saw Tommy rolling up his cuffs, standing side by side with Ashley's father Hull, arguing with their dad with a serious face, and interestingly, her father Julian, and Tommy's brother Tony, were standing behind Daddy Colin, and the situation was clearly divided into two factions.

Curious about what they were arguing about, Otilia put on a heavy coat and walked to the balcony of the bedroom, and when she came out, she found that she was not the only one who liked to watch the excitement, and on the balcony of each bedroom there was a woman who liked to gossip and was leaning on the railing to look at the men outside.

It was a bit far away, and it was hard to hear what they were arguing about from the balcony, but it was soon clear to Otilia from her mother and Ashley what was going on.

Yesterday, the three old guys went to the bar for a drink, and they didn't know what was going on, but they ended up helping Daddy Colin negotiate a big deal with their father, Julian.

But Tommy and Mr. Hull were clearly opposed to the business, and when they got up in the morning, they began to argue about it, three against two, from the breakfast table to the courtyard at this moment.

"Mr. Farrell, if Hoboken's business is really profitable, why don't you take a stake in it yourself, and encourage me to rely on the calculator to get the money out of my addition and subtraction of more than ten?" Tommy opened his mouth to his father-in-law, Farrell, "I told you to throw the trouble on the poor poor devils of Rhode Island, but I didn't let you throw it to my dear father, who was a poor man before, but now he has a clever son, no, two. ”

"Thank you for the compliment, Tommy, but I'm not going to betray you in the past." Tony retorted with a smile when he heard Tommy's words.

Colin looked at Tommy dissatisfied, his eyes narrowed, "Hey! Boy, I remind you~"

"Reminder of what?" Seeing Colin grimac, Tommy stepped back a little behind Mr. Hull.

Colin corrected Tommy's mistake very seriously: "Thirty, I will only use a calculator if the total is more than thirty." ”

The other four people present were stunned for a moment with Colin's defense, not understanding why the total number of more than ten and more than thirty was so important to Colin, and they needed to be pointed out to prove that Daddy was smarter?

Julian explained: "I've explained a lot of times, and according to what Tommy said, I explained to those people that my factory needs to consider black demonstrations, and I have to do it, and my son-in-law, Tommy, also supports me in providing jobs to black people, after all, he is a BT black television network...... Before I could explain it to everyone, Colin interrupted me and told the drunkards who were almost beating me up, saying, hey, I have a better solution, I have a shipbreaking yard in Rhode Island, and I've always wanted to expand it, but there is no more suitable dock and land there, and he is willing to invest in a part of the Hoboken shipyard and bring the scrap ships he collects here to the beach, and let them help with the dismantling. ”

Hull looked at Farrell and Colin seriously: "Tow those broken fishing boats from Rhode Island to Hoboken, New Jersey and dismantle them?" The money from the shipbreaking yard may not be enough to pay for the tugboats, and I know it's not a good deal if I haven't read a book, Colin. ”

"I don't interrupt Julian, Julian is going to tell those guys that my son is going to start a TV station for, give jobs to, and even his bodyguards can drive luxury cars to nightclubs and get drunk and die, how do I deal with them? When I first went, I bragged to them that I was an ancestral Ku Klux Klan, and now my son is fucking a cow and a horse for niggas? Daddy Colin said confidently: "Give Hoboken a part of the training ship dismantling order from the shipbreaking yard, those people can continue to work, and I can continue to make profits." ”

Tony also nodded in agreement: "I think you're making a bit of a fuss, Tommy, not to mention those dismantling contracts for the Rhode Island Reserve Naval Academy training ship, I think it will be faster to tow the ship to Hoboken for dismantling, Daddy They are only willing to dismantle three or four ships a year, the efficiency is too slow, Mr. Farrell also said that he is willing to help Daddy provide a tugboat at a reasonable price." ”

"What government contractor have you seen would be willing to get the job done faster? The long-term dismantling order for the scrapped training ship that I asked you to help with is the pension contract between Daddy and Mr. Wilson and Mr. Hull, you know? Slowly complete is, anyway, there are many training ships, only need to be dismantled slowly, and there is no need to tow them to their own shipbreaking yard immediately, they can park at the training dock of the academy, and they will dismantle one in the off-season, and collect a sum of money, and now, two or three hundred workers can complete the work of Dad for more than ten years in three months. Tommy ignored Daddy and explained to Tony earnestly:

"And Daddy doesn't have that much money at all, I guess it must have been Mr. Farrell who offered to lend him a sum of money, so that's Mr. Farrell's problem."

Julian Farrell did not deny it, but generously stated that if you earn money, the interest can be calculated at the lowest interest rate, and if you don't make money, you don't need to repay the interest.

Seeing his father-in-law's face of paying interest even if his mother's family made money, Tommy luckily took a step forward towards Julian, approached him and lowered his voice:

"Don't force me, Mr. Farrell, you'd better pay for the investment my father promised right away, maybe I'll increase your chances by naming a place, like the Alamo in Manhattan."

"I happen to know a place name, Four Seasons Hotel San Francisco." As Tommy's father-in-law, Julian also took a half step forward at this time and whispered in Tommy's ear.

Tommy immediately added quickly, "Vienna, Austria." ”

"Four Seasons Hotel Washington." Not to be outdone, Julian continued to fight back.

"Miami's Turquoise Beach."

"Four Seasons Hotel Miami."

Tommy sighed, and the two of them each took a step back, so the idea that the nuclear bundle model is used to maintain world peace should be correct.

"Do you want to continue, boy?" Julian asked with a smile as he looked at Tommy, blinking.

Now he is not worried that Tommy will be willing to break up with his daughter, Tommy has poured his efforts into his daughter over the years, and the resources are even far greater than his father, although this guy has pretended to be a good man for three years, but Julian has not given up, the son-in-law has the information of his private meeting with several mistresses, and he does not have some equivalent information in his hands, so isn't he waiting to be coerced by this bastard boy?

Peace, it must be because of the equal strength, the other party can hire Pinkerton detectives, and he is not a poor ghost with no money, just hire another class of Pinkerton people.

"You're pushing me, Mr. Farrell, the audit of my VOX network has been handed over to a very good financial manager at KPMG, Ms. Shirley Reynolds, and if you insist, I'll let her help Daddy manage the finances of the shipbreaking yard." Tommy saw that his father-in-law was actually angry, and he was worried that he would cheat him, so he decisively increased the stakes, saying that he not only knew the process, but also knew the woman's name and identity.

Julian looked at Tommy with the same calm and retorted: "The legal counsel of the sea line shipping industry was just changed to a lady named Delia Keys last year, I think she is just as good, if you are scaring me, I will let her talk to you about intimidating me." ”

A pair of unscrupulous sons-in-law looked at each other for a few seconds, and then at the same time looked at Farrell's mother and daughter on the balcony in the distance, and finally opened his arms to hug each other, Farrell strangled Tommy's neck with his arms, and said affectionately: "I still love you, Tommy, we are family, don't let family affection be eroded by money, I'll pay for it." ”

"I am also full of respect for you, I am sorry, I can't believe it, I actually talked to you with such a rude attitude just now, I came to find a buyer, to see if the shipyard land can be sold for a good price, I can't let you bear the loss." Tommy put his arms on the back of his father-in-law, trying to strangle the other party's waist, but his tone was full of guilt.

"Sell?" Colin suddenly asked when he heard the words coming out of his son's mouth.

"Is it really to give them the order, of course, to use this order for the dismantling of naval training ships as an excuse to whet their appetite, to use the excuse of investment inspection, to do a detailed investigation, to see if there is anything else that can squeeze oil out of their worthless shipyard, and if there is, to buy it at a bargain, sell it, declare bankruptcy, and let those guys who humiliated me yesterday continue to lose their jobs." Farrell was still hugging Tommy hard, as if he wanted to let everyone feel his love for his son-in-law Tommy through the power of hugging, and when he heard Colin's puzzled question, he let go of Tommy and said to Colin.

As Julian finished saying this, the situation changed again, and Mr. Hull immediately defected to Colin and Tony's side, while Tommy and Julian, who had just hated each other on their way, stood firmly together.

Colin stared at Julian and asked puzzledly: "Those people almost knelt down happily to lick our eggs when they learned the result yesterday, help you and me, as the god who saved them, the bar owner exempted us from all expenses, remember that bar girl?" Finally, I beg you to pinch her a little more, to thank you for providing work to her husband and other guys, and you now say that you will continue to make them unemployed. ”

"I want to say that three months of kindness is also kindness, lick it, pinch it, and you can be happy for three months, and the time is not short." Tommy said next to him:

"Or I'll ask Mr. Page to send back your money last night to the barkeeper."

Julian patted Tommy with relief: "That's good, who remembers the drink talk last night." ”

Seeing the virtues of the two, Colin turned around and simply left, and Mr. Hull looked the frenzied son-in-law up and down: "The brutes in the country of Warwick are more humane than you two......

"Do you want to say something?" Tony gave Tommy a wordless look, then quickly caught up with his dad and patted him on the back comfortingly.

Colin sighed, "yes, I'm glad I gave birth to two sons, son, I have an idea, why don't you change back to Hawke's last name, and then let Tommy change his last name to Farrell." ”
