Chapter 927 The Backbone of an Old Man, the Heart of a Youth (Part 2)
Byron interjected, "Who is Hamlet?"
Terry Ferdinand glanced at him, but didn't tell who the pirate leader Hamlet was. He just laughed and joked, "How is it? Have you snatched back your little girlfriend? My friend. >≥ "
Cyclops sighed, his expression changed from surprise to disappointment, and then from disappointment to resentment: "If you weren't troublesome, how could I have suffered so much and suffered so much."
"You are in pain and happiness." Unlike Henrietta, the old man has a somewhat humorous style. Even though he is a whole decade older than Byron, he still jokes without scruples.
Byron sneered at this, and said, "You old bastard, you were the one who encouraged me to provoke her, and now you are the one who gloats at her misfortune. Is there anyone more shameless than you?"
Yes, the source of what happened between Heloise and Byron was the dying old man in front of him.
"I can't afford such a compliment." Terry Ferdinand said, "Wouldn't that steal Tang Fang's limelight?"
Freya pouted and looked at him with an unhappy face, her coquettish eyes were like a puppy who only wants to stand up for its master: "Tang Fang is not shameless, you old man is shameless...all those who speak ill of Tang Fang People are shameless fellows."
Tang Fang smiled, Byron smiled, and even the serious old servant behind Terry Ferdinand couldn't help laughing, a flower appeared from the wrinkles on his old face.
"This is Freya." The old man said enviously, "Your life is really good."
"No." Tang Fang rubbed Freya's little head: "My life is not good..."
At this moment, the old servant behind Terry Ferdinand said, "If you want to live two more days, you'd better go inside and talk."
"Watt, don't say it so directly, it will be embarrassing." The old man looked embarrassed.
Will he be a respected political elder in the Star Alliance Council? Will it be the spiritual leader of the Covenant Republican Party? This is simply an incredible thing.
Whether in the Mongya Empire or the United Kingdom of Turanx, the vast majority of people who hold power in their hands are solemn and serious people...at least for a person who just met.
But the big man in the Star Alliance in front of him doesn't seem to care about his identity and age at all, he is very easy-going and approachable.
think carefully,
The female Prime Minister of the Dolanx Republic is also such a character. It’s not that she has a witty conversation like Terry Ferdinand, but that her image is very similar to an ordinary big sister next door, without gorgeous clothes, precious The accessories, the arrogant posture, and the aura of the mountains and mountains at a glance.
Just a down-to-earth, diligent middle-aged woman.
They are both politicians and none of them are politicians. Politics is not everything, it is just a part of their life, a part of their life.
"I'm just reminding you to pay attention to your body," Watt said.
"Okay, okay, I get it... It is said that people will be long-winded when they get old, and this is really true."
He was obviously older than old Watt, but he said he was long-winded, which puzzled Freya, and she thought that this old man was really interesting.
Terry Ferdinand shook his fat nightgown and gave way inside: "Let's go, let's talk in the room. Although Heisenberg's night is beautiful, the wine brought by Hamlet is even more beautiful." After speaking, he glanced at Byron , and said: "If it was an ordinary person, I wouldn't show it." The implication is that Byron is in the honor of Captain Tang.
He didn't hide Hamlet's existence from the beginning.
Tang Fang nodded, and led Freya and Byron to the small building in the yard that looked old.
There are several cars parked on the west side of the courtyard, the one in the middle is painted with colorful paint, and the front logo is two sailor machetes crossed downwards, which is very beautiful and unique.
Walking into the main hall, Watt let a few people sit on the sofa, and asked Tang Fang very politely if they wanted tea or coffee.
Because the shadow of black tea from Natasha has not subsided, Tang Fang chose coffee.
Watt left the living room to make coffee. When he came back, Tang Fang and Byron had two goblets in front of them. Terry Ferdinand's lips still had a strong fruity aroma.
His complexion changed several times, but he didn't say anything after all. He just put the coffee one by one in front of Tang Fang and the three of them, said slowly, and then took the plate back to the kitchen.
"You should get a nanny," Byron said.
Terry Ferdinand said: "Get used to it..."
He understood what the Pirate Chief meant, and knew that he wanted to say that Watt was old, and he was supposed to take care of his life and spend the rest of his life in peace, but now he was still here to take care of his daily life, which was really inappropriate.
The water vapor is graceful, the strong aroma of coffee and the sweet aroma of wine wrap and play with each other.
The whole living room fell into a brief silence. Freya leaned against Tang Fang, gently swaying her two little feet, as if she didn't feel dull at all.
In her innocent little head, as long as she could stay by his side, no matter where she went, it was a garden party.
Byron drank the wine in the goblet, got up and swept Freya beside Tang Fang, "Come on, I'll take you to the roof to see the stars... Mr. Congressman is a true astronomer, his balcony There are many different models of telescopes out there."
The little girl shook her head: "No, what's so good about the stars. I want to stay here with Tang Fang."
Byron was a little embarrassed. He just wanted to distract Freya and let Tang Fang talk to Terry Ferdinand alone. He didn't expect the little girl to be unmoved at all.
"Go ahead, let me have a few words with Mr. Terry alone." Until Tang Fang spoke, the little girl stood up reluctantly, complained "ah, it's so troublesome", and then followed with her mouth pouted. Byron walked back to the stairs.
After the two left, the room returned to calm, and the water vapor was still flowing. The LED electronic light on the opposite side shone on the panel of the coffee table, pulling out a long red spot, looking through the water vapor, it looked like a dancing tulle.
Terry Ferdinand coughed twice, then took a sip of wine, suppressed the dry itching in his throat, looked into Tang Fang's eyes and said, "You're mature..."
Henrietta said he had grown up, the veteran said he was doing well, and Terry Ferdinand said he had matured.
Is that true? Only Tang Fang didn't think that he had grown up and matured. He just learned to compromise, learned to curve redemption, and used flexible methods to achieve his goals.
"But I lied to many people." Tang Fang sighed, did not touch the coffee carefully brewed by Watt, picked up the glass of wine, shook his head, drank it clean,
"Business and politics...are both art of lying, not...it should be said that they are tricks of liars. Low-level liars go to jail, high-level liars sit in court, that's all." Terry Ferdinand said with narrowed eyes.
"But I don't want to go to prison or sit in court."
"But you're still a liar..."
Tang Fang said: "In any case, thank you for everything you have done for me, Dilar's rental right, international protection, and... the Green Ark."
"You know?" Terry Ferdinand used a question, but the expression on his face was not surprising at all.
"I'm not that stupid yet." Tang Fang said, "I'm just curious, why have you done so much for me?"
"Why?" The old man leaned back. "For this country."
For this country? Tang Fang didn't understand. Terry Ferdinand obviously helped him gain a foothold in the Hillenbel region at the expense of national interests. How could it be said that he was for the country?
"what do you want from me?"
He shook his head and said: "It's not what I want from you, it's what you will give to this country and the people of this country... I didn't fully agree with Hamlet's proposition before, but you are in Turanx A series of things that the United Kingdom has done has changed my view."
"Am I that important?" Tang Fang said, "I'm curious, what is Hamlet's claim in your mouth?"
Hamlet, Hamlet again...
He evaded the important point and said: "If Hamlet is not lying, you are really important. More and more facts prove that what Hamlet said is correct, so I am willing to bet the future of the Star Alliance on you."
"Please don't bet on me without my consent, it's really disrespectful..."
Before that, he wondered why the high-level executives of the Star Alliance had a 180-degree change in attitude towards him. Could it be that those people in the United Kingdom of Turancus really said that his actions were in line with the principles of the Star Alliance and the Charles Federation? country style?
But after this conversation, he realized that his thoughts were really idealistic.
Terry Ferdinand said: "You don't have a choice... because you're a good person."
Kindness is a virtue, but no matter in the battlefield, shopping malls, politics, or even the field of human relations, it will become a weakness and be exploited by opponents.
The old man was very honest, he didn't hide the meanness and filth in his heart, he put them in the sun and in front of Tang Fang.
As a result, those things that should have been despicable and dirty have changed into honesty.
For this country...
Clement is for this country, Fukui Junichi is for this country, O'Neill is for this country, Adam Oliver is for this country, and now... Terry Ferdinand also said for this country.
They are for this country sincerely, not like the officials of the United Kingdom of Turanx, who say they are for the country, but in fact the so-called for the country is just a biting dog in their hands, a flesh-cutting knife The knife is a shield for evil.
"All of you. You are really rascals." Tang Fang said: "In this way, I am even more curious about what Hamlet told you and why he thinks I am important to the Star Alliance."
The old man shook his head: "He predicted your rise, Adam Oliver's failure, and Hymn Will's failure, so I believe his other prophecy...you will win this war for the Star Alliance."
Hamlet... why is he so confident in himself?
When he arrived in the Star Alliance, no one thought that Morning Star Casting could stand firm under the tremendous pressure.
When he decided to welcome Elena back and meddle in the political situation of the United Kingdom of Turanx, many people looked down on him, thinking that he was doing death and asking for trouble for himself.
Why did Hamlet think he would win? At a very early stage, he asserted that he would help the Covenant regain its territorial sovereignty and win the war.
You must know that the strength he showed before is really insignificant compared to the strength he shows now.
"Where is he? I want to meet him." In addition to being invited to meet Terry Ferdinand, he came to Heisenberg this time. What is so special about the merchants of the empire that they can be the guests of Mr. Members.
The old man sighed, and said, "He's gone...he's returned to his country, and maybe he'll come here again in the future."
He wasn't sad about Bahamut's passing, but he was sad that he didn't have the chance to see that person again.
"Leaving?" Tang Fang frowned, thinking that it was really time for Hamlet to leave. Could it be that Terry Ferdinand was lying and saying this on purpose to prevent the two from seeing each other.
But from the eyes of the old guy, he couldn't see any weirdness or abnormality. The scan results of the detector showed that the electrical skin reaction was normal, which showed that Mr. Congressman was not lying, and he was telling the truth.
Now that Hamlet has returned home, one of his two main purposes of coming to Heisenberg cannot be achieved, so he has to cheer up and focus on the first purpose.
"Since I am so important in your eyes, I believe you will not just sit back and watch me suffer." Tang Fang shook the last touch of rose red at the bottom of the goblet, poured it all into his mouth, and picked up the bottle in the middle of the coffee table to use The bottle with "Solomon's Winery" written in cursive English was filled for Terry Ferdinand.
"Suffering? Suffering for what?"
He put the bottle back and said slowly: "Roland Page has taken the engineering fleet of the Green Ark to the Dilar star system, but Grant and Christian in Babylon have encountered a big problem. Someone deliberately obstructed Morningstar Casting from applying for engineering subsidies."
"Is there such a thing?" The old man frowned, but there was no surprise on his face. After all, Tang Fang had made many enemies in the Star Alliance, and it was reasonable to encounter such difficulties.
"This is just one of many difficulties... The Star Alliance government, major mining companies, and military companies have jointly monopolized the precious minerals needed by the aerospace industry during this critical period, deliberately squeezing the living space of Morningstar Casting."
"The special smelting equipment offered to Grant and others by the major heavy machinery processing companies in the Star Alliance is ridiculously high, so that we can only import it from the Silver Eagle Group. Not to mention the long distance, there is still a great risk. Pirate groups or hostile forces around the Nada defense line robbed it, but it was a big loss."
"Actually, these are all easy to talk about. The biggest problem plaguing Morningstar Casting right now is the lack of funds..." (To be continued.) 8
