Chapter 922 Princess and Princess
Washington, inside the Office of the President.
Because of George Marshall's speech, the atmosphere at the scene was a little tense.
Marshall, who served as the Army Chief of Staff for many years, has gained a firm foothold in both the government and the military.
He is not afraid of Hoover, which does not mean that other people dare to offend each other easily.
After all, not everyone would dare to say to Hoover, 'If you let me know that any news about me comes from you,
I promise the best snipers in the Army will put a bullet through your head. '
This conversation took place after a certain presidential meeting, and it became a well-known 'secret' in the Washington office. '
"Gentlemen, let's talk about something useful!" The Secretary of State changed the subject, and if this confrontation continued, the two might fight.
"First of all, I want to remind everyone that protecting American citizens is the responsibility of each of us here." The Secretary of State looked at everyone with a solemn face.
The scene fell into silence again, but the atmosphere was no longer tense, but more solemn and solemn.
No matter what ideas they have, the fact that protecting America is protecting their own interests has not changed from beginning to end.
What's more, the weight of the telegram sent by the think tank is not as light as they said.
Currently, Mobil's domestic market share is 45%, which does not include supply to the government.
The strength of the consortium behind it is intricate, and it is not only a problem of the Mobil brand.
Rockefeller can be called the 'Oil King,' even if he is forced to split up.
It is unknown to anyone how many shares it holds in several other oil giants in private.
What?
Those companies have nothing to do with him?
Only people who are so naive as to 'pie falling from the sky' really think this is the case.
"Then, let's do it like this!" Roosevelt said, turning the steering lever with his hand, and controlled the wheelchair to drive towards the gate.
"Finally, I don't have to worry about being refused to answer my calls anymore, hehe..." Roosevelt left accompanied by the black butler, leaving the rest of the people looking at each other in dismay.
Was what the president said before he left another warning to them?
The taste here can only depend on the taste of everyone present, I believe everyone will have different perceptions.
The think tank received a call back from Washington at noon the next day.
However, Li Zitao had already received the news before that, and it was General Nimitz, commander of the Pacific Theater Command, who told him.
He received an order from Washington last night to escort merchant ships passing in waters controlled by the US military.
The document also specifically emphasized the need to pay attention to the protection of strategically important materials.
"Thank you very much for calling, General Nimitz... If you are free, you should come to the island. The most delicious seafood and the best liquor are here."
Hearing the seafood, Nimitz did not waver. As a navy who deals with the sea all day, he has never eaten any kind of seafood.
However, the white wine made him a little greedy, and he swallowed uncontrollably and said, "I think that scene will be very pleasant."
"Of course, you are welcome to be a guest at any time." After greeting for a while, he told him that he would send someone to deliver the newly arrived liquor to the Pearl Harbor base.
Nimitz's reluctant tone finally returned to normal, and he hung up the phone with a cheerful smile.
"Aren't all the soldiers addicted to alcohol?" He looked at Hepburn with a bit of tears and laughter, and his impression of Nimitz was getting better and better.
People who have good wine but not bad wine are mostly straightforward and forthright.
In today's society where the social system of the United States has changed and everything is based on money, there are fewer and fewer such people.
Li Zitao, who temporarily put down his work at hand, spent three beautiful and leisurely days with Hepburn on the boat.
In these three days, the theme of the two has not changed.
The basic rhythm is; getting up, eating, fancy swimming, overlapping fishing, eating, exercising, sunbathing, eating...
In the end, they had a heart-to-heart conversation under the night, and fell asleep in a harmonious embrace.
Well... what a pleasant three days!
Back to Hepburn at Shenghai Hotel again,
Both body and temperament have undergone earth-shaking changes.
From the previous cautiousness and loneliness, he was out of tune with the world.
She has become a sweet princess who is confident, loves to laugh, and is full of enthusiasm and hope.
In fact, every time the word "princess" is mentioned, Li Zitao's brain always thinks of the rhythm of "moving times, hitting times", as well as the shining lights and private rooms.
When I was a child, I always thought that princesses lived in castles.
After growing up, I discovered that the princesses all stayed in the private room.
My favorite drink is not fruit juice, but Martell, Hennessy, Louis XIII, Royal Salute...
"Why did you think of this again?" Looking at the coastline so close, Li Zitao shook his head to wake himself up.
However, it is also a kind of fun for him to occasionally think of some memory fragments about his previous life.
He seldom thinks about the memories of his past life, especially when the memories about the present are gradually increasing and seem precious.
Those unpleasant and powerless memories, just blow away with the wind!
"Charlie..." Celia, who exuded maternal brilliance, stood on the terrace, waving and smiling at Li Zitao who was walking.
"Hey, Honey..." Li Zitao responded with a wave of his hand, and then saw a vicious face beside her, and two fleshy paws.
"Stay there and don't move, Xiao Liu." Spotting it looking around, Li Zitao yelled, pointing at it.
"Woof..." Xiao Liu called out to him in a very human way, then lowered his paws and lay obediently beside the hostess again.
In the past few days, Xiao Liu has gradually adapted to its new owner.
Moreover, it feels that life here is good, except that the number of gatherings with its "loved concubines" has decreased.
The consequence of this is that it becomes energetic again, looking for something to fight with every moment.
chirp...
A sharp cry sounded, and Jin, who was flying freely with his wings outstretched, flew over his head.
The moment Li Zitao raised his head, a black shadow fell in front of him, and Jin screamed and quickly disappeared on the distant hillside.
Looking at the bloody deer in front of him, Li Zitao really couldn't laugh or cry.
"BOSS." Danny trotted over, seeing the twitching fawn in front of him, who also had a strange expression.
"This is a gift from Jin...Give it to the chef, I think I can have an extra meal tonight." Li Zitao was still a little uncomfortable with this surprise gift.
Judging from its performance today, there is no need to worry about wild game when living here in the future.
Back upstairs, the first time he saw Celia, Li Zitao pointed in the direction of the beach and said, "Did you see it just now?"
"Yes." Celia covered her mouth with a chuckle and said, "Actually, I've seen it many times, and it brings back different prey every day."
"...My guess is correct, it seems that we will have endless game."
As Li Zitao's voice fell, Jin Yueyue's tweet came from behind the mountain, as if responding to his words.
