Chapter 382 Banquet
“Peng!”
After the champagne was fully chilled, there was still a big gap in the internal and external air pressure. As the iron ring was pulled open, the cork was lifted by the liquid inside. Flying forward, white 'fruit wine' sprayed forward.
“Oh!”
“Crash...”
The crowd roared.
With a smile on his face, Karl gestured to everyone and said:
“First of all, I would like to thank the Billiton Group for its support. Without the support of the Group, my research would be difficult to continue.”
< br>"Secondly, I would like to thank Ms. Monica. It was Ms. Monica who gave me the opportunity to conduct scientific research."
"Once again, I would like to thank all my colleagues and students in the experimental group. I could not have done it without you." …”
"Haha..." Blaise laughed below:
"Professor Carl, your speech is too official, too formal. You are the key to everything."
" Here’s to you!”
“To Professor Carl!”
“Cheers!”
Everyone raised their glasses together and laughed continuously.
This is the top floor of the hotel, specially designed to hold large banquets. Today it is Karl's home court.
“I didn’t expect that Professor Carl’s research would produce results so quickly.” Ruili stood below with juice in her hand:
“Monica, you are really looking for it for yourself this time. I have a baby.”
“That’s right.” Monica licked the corners of her mouth, her red lips covered with lipstick exuding a seductive luster:
"I have always been very lucky."
"Professor Carl's research helps to improve and cure several congenital diseases, and brings hundreds of millions in revenue to Billiton Group every year, and this is just the beginning. I I believe that the professor’s subsequent research will have greater economic value.”
“Hundreds of millions!” Ruili’s face flushed:
“Representatives from several pharmaceutical companies have contacted Karl recently. You must be careful not to be pried away.”
< br>"Don't worry." Monica chuckled:
"We signed a contract with Professor Carl. He not only has a one-time income, but also a profit share of the drug, and..."
"From what I understand, Professor Carl is not very interested in money. He is A true scholar."
"How much?" Ruili asked curiously:
"How much did you give Karl?"
"Hehe..." Mo Nika chuckled:
"This is classified as confidential, but now Professor Carl must have financial freedom."
"At least that's the case for you."
"Ah!" Ruili sighed:
"Actually, Professor Carl is not that old, don't you think? Although he looks average, he has a very good temperament."
"Uh..." Monica's eyes were strange:
"Ruili, you are going to get married soon."
"It's already blown." Ruili shrugged:
"Love is like a phantom on the other side, always elusive and far inferior to Money comes in real terms.”
“There are so many conflicts when we talk about the wedding. We can already foresee the quarrel after marriage, so we should just separate and calm down.”
?
Monica shook her head slightly.
Ruili is her good friend, and she also knows Ruili’s fiancé. She was originally very optimistic about their relationship.
Unexpectedly...
Just like back then, who could have thought that she would choose to break up with Blaise, who didn't want to be separated for a moment?
"Peng!"
"Peng Peng!"
With the help of a director of Billiton Group, a series of champagne was opened, and the audience cheered.
“Don’t mention the unhappy things.”
Monica cheered up:
“Today is Professor Carl’s celebration banquet. I need to drink a few more drinks. OK.”
"Yes!"
Ruili nodded.
"Monica." Blaise, who was wearing a slim-fitting dress, stepped closer, bowed and saluted, and stretched out one hand:
"Would it be my honor to dance with you?"< br>
“My pleasure.”
Monica smiled sweetly, stretched out her hand to shake each other's hands, and the two of them moved with flexible steps to blend into the crowd.
Champagne, music, dancing...
The senior executives of the Billiton Group gathered around Karl, congratulating him from time to time and discussing the next arrangements.
“Professor Carl.”
Eugene is a bald old man in his fifties. He smiled and said:
"I heard that you plan to buy a house. Billiton Group has channels for this. Do you need help?"
"No."
Karl smiled lightly and shook his head: "I think Zhongcheng District The price of an old house on the edge is not bad. If there is no problem, I will buy it there.”
“An old house on the edge of the city?” Eugene frowned:
"The house over there is quite old."
"Yes."
Karl nodded:
"It is a house that was built more than 600 years ago. It is said that it used to be a certain The residence of an earl, and that earl happens to be named Bergman. Maybe it’s fate, so I plan to buy it.”
“Well...” Eugene touched his chin:
"Professor Carl, even if a centuries-old house is carefully maintained, some places are out of date."
"Maybe..."
"You should think about it again."
< br>"Really?" Karl said thoughtfully:
"Then let's take a look again."
He didn't intend to consider it, because the house was originally his and had previous feelings.
What's more,
there is something he is interested in there too.
…………
As the first person to follow Karl in the laboratory, Barrow was naturally invited to attend this banquet.
While everyone else was gathering, he went to the area where the food was and started feasting.
Since the physical changes, he found that his food intake and digestion ability had greatly increased.
Feeling hungry early.
"Barrow."
"Hmm..." Barrow swallowed the pastry in his mouth desperately, and wiped the cream from the corner of his mouth with some embarrassment:
"Tracy, you are here too."
"Yes."
Tracy has long blue hair, her appearance is not very outstanding, and she has a lot of freckles on her cheeks.
But every time he saw him, Barrow felt his heartbeat speeding up uncontrollably.
“Thanks to your support during this period, otherwise I really don’t know how I should continue my studies.”
Tracy sighed:
"I have found a suitable buyer for some of the things my father left behind, and I will pay you back the money after selling them."
"No need to worry." Barrow was anxious. Waving his hand:
“I’m not short of money now.”
“Professor Carl gave a bonus to the people in the laboratory yesterday. I got ten thousand pounds. If you need it, I can lend it to you first. ”
"Ah!" Tracy's eyes widened:
"Ten thousand pounds?"
"Yes." Barrow scratched his head and grinned:
" I have to say that Professor Carl is a very generous elder. Each person in the laboratory is allocated 8,000 pounds. Because I was the first to work with him, I gave him 10,000 pounds, and the subsidy will be increased by 300 pounds starting next month.”
“Helping in the laboratory is no longer as good as working outside. How much lower.”
Tracy looked envious.
She had never worried about money before. Only after her father Jim died unexpectedly did she realize the importance of money.
Her father did not leave her much inheritance, and the school tuition fees were already unbearable for her.
Thankfully, Barrow was willing to help.
Ten thousand pounds!
Licking the corner of her mouth, Tracy lowered her head and reached out to hold Barrow as if she had made a decision.
“Follow me.”
“Ah!”
Barrow was stunned and followed subconsciously.
Corner.
Several hidden sights were quietly withdrawn.
"The target left the party and followed."
"A weak supernatural power was detected in the girl named Tracy, and her consciousness was marked..."
"Watch the Night Watch!"
"Whoosh!"
In the dark night.
A bat flew down from the top of the building and hovered in the sky.
Karl stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window with a wine glass in his hand, looked at the figure below, chuckled and shook his head.
