The First Thousand and Twelve Chapters Smart Children Are Not Easy to Bring
Berlin.
Kang Si still appeared here, and there was a team of more than 20 people with him.
Not all of them are people from the think tank, but also Li's real estate... To be precise, they are people sent by Lilith.
12-year-old Lilith has officially taken over the management of Li's Real Estate.
Now she only attends classes three days a week, and spends the rest of the time dealing with company affairs. She does her due diligence.
Garbo was worried about this, fearing that she would lose the innocence that a child should have, and would feel uncomfortable because of it.
But in reality, Lilith did better than anyone thought.
During this trip to Berlin, Lilith also came, and she wanted to personally participate in the negotiations, but her schedule was a few days behind the team.
In order to ensure her safety, Garbo, as a guardian, will also accompany her.
"Mom, I can do it myself." On the private plane belonging to Li's real estate, Lilith looked at her mother with innocent eyes.
"I know, but you're still a kid," Garbo emphasized.
She had a lot of visions for the future and her children, but she never thought that one day she would need to accompany her 12-year-old on a business trip abroad.
In order to cooperate with her daughter's trip to Berlin, she had to turn down the new play that DreamWorks arranged for her, "Lost Weekend" directed by Billy Wilder. '
This script is Garbo's favorite movie since she left acting. She even decided to come out again, but she had to give up for the sake of her daughter.
"You can go and accept the script, and I'll take care of her." Deville, the new CEO of Li's Real Estate, returned to his seat with two glasses of champagne.
"I know what to do!" Garbo said bluntly.
"Yes, yes, you are the BOSS." Deville raised his hand, then handed her a glass of champagne and said, "I can let you relax."
"Thank you." Garbo really needed to relax, she didn't like getting off the ground very much.
The plane arrived in Berlin on time, and Lilith's expression became serious before it landed, because all she could see was ruins.
Bodies were piled up on the side of the street, and men with cloths covering their noses and mouths were transporting them elsewhere on carts.
Lilith thought it should be burned in the suburbs, because she saw thick smoke billowing in the distance.
The air is full of gunpowder smoke and heaviness, and a few gunshots can be heard from time to time.
That was the Allied forces executing the enemy, although Lilith couldn't understand why they would still kill after the war.
The carriage passed by the road, and the people on both sides of the street looked numb and terrified, in contrast to the unscrupulous ridicule and brutality of the Allied forces.
Lilith saw with her own eyes that the woman who was walking past with her head wrapped in a cloth was dragged into an alley by two Allied soldiers.
All others can do is to bury their heads lower and quicken their pace.
"Lilith, don't look..." Garbo held his daughter in his arms.
"I've seen enough." Lilith said calmly.
"Yes, so stop watching." Jiabao put down the curtain on the car window, hugged her daughter tightly, closed her eyes and fell asleep.
The car with the Stars and Stripes flew unimpeded all the way, and soon came to a hotel.
Compared to the chaos and commotion outside, the hotel looks orderly.
There are neatly dressed waiters in front of the door, and the people inside are singing and laughing, without any influence from the outside world.
This is the Adlon Kempinski Hotel in the Mitte district of central Berlin, a social center where nobles and celebrities from all over Europe gathered before the war.
"We have booked a room...Deville, Deville Cooper." At the front desk of the hotel, Deville identified himself to the other party.
"I found it...Welcome to Berlin, Kempinski Hotel will provide you with the best service..." After finding Deville's name, the staff smiled brightly.
"Lilith, the negotiation will take a few more days. During this period, you can walk around. Although the environment has not recovered, it is much safer than before, as long as you don't leave the city."
Going to the room with the hotel butler, Deville sent his own suggestions. There are many places worth seeing in Berlin, even after countless bombings.
"No,
I want to finalize the terms as soon as possible, the main job is on my father's side, not Li's estate... right? "Lilith looked at him clearly.
"That's true, but you are one, Lilith, don't forget that your surname comes from him." Deville made an appropriate reminder.
He needs BOSS to wake up. Teenagers will always want to create troubles and resist everything, so as to appear different.
But Dwyer had to remind her of who she was and where she came from.
The Li family estate is very powerful, there is no doubt about it, and no family can own more land than it.
But that's all.
In order to make the land owned by Li's real estate valuable and able to produce money, she must get the help of her father.
The Li family is becoming more and more powerful in the United States, and almost all prominent families who can be named have become its allies. This is the most terrifying thing.
"We have our own business, you should be more responsible, Deville, otherwise why should I pay you?" Lilith didn't think so.
Her admiration for her father does not dampen her pride, there is no conflict between the two, just like every child wants to do better than their parents.
Lilith wants to make some achievements by herself, so that her father can look at her differently and get more attention and love.
"Well, it looks like I'm going to work," Deville said awkwardly, as if he had just asked for a joke.
For a bright, strong-minded girl, his advice was useless.
Kids who are too bright are not always very attractive, and DeVille agrees.
"Lilith, can't you be more polite to him?" After the other party left, Garbo put down the "Vogue" magazine in his hand and said helplessly.
"He should pay more attention to his work, instead of flattering others in front of me." Lilith signaled the secretary to open the suitcase, she wanted to see the negotiation plan.
"The person you are talking about is your father." Garbo emphasized deliberately.
"Yes, I'm very clear...Thank you for reminding me, Mom." Lilith took the plan and said impatiently, "Can I work now?"
"Do it, it's what you care about anyway." Jiabao said without surprise, she was almost used to her daughter's busy pace of life.
One thing Garbo agrees with is that a child who is too smart will always cause headaches.
Downstairs in the hotel, DeVille is on the phone: "Sir, I'll do my job...yes...I'll be...ok."
Hanging up the phone, Deville let out a sigh of relief, helping the worried father take care of his daughter, this job is not easy at all.
Especially when facing Lilith, he was always worried about saying the wrong thing.
Based on Deville's understanding of her, if she knew what she had done, the only result would be to pack up and leave.
Deville has some expectations for this. Maybe that day, he can transfer to work under the name of Charlie Lee, instead of serving as a nanny, CEO and spy here.
