Chapter 338: A meeting with different agendas, everyone is hypocritically telling the truth
January 6, Qing, why should I write about the weather?
Forget it, just write. Sunny days can always make people feel better. Today’s mood is 9 points - out of 100. Ha, this joke is not funny at all.
On January 7, a lot of things seemed to have happened, and they all happened after I left. No, Xiao Zhao, forget everything about the United States. It has only been half a year, and it is just a dream.
On January 9th, someone died again, Da Qi, is that why you drove me away?
No, he is just a coward, too cowardly to take responsibility.
On January 11, the Red Street kidnapping case was revealed. What was the man thinking? He actually mentioned it in the Senate.
Da Qi was also at the scene of the kidnapping case. Could this incident be related to him?
There has been a big fuss over the investigation power of the case where LPAD and Ferb Le grabbed the head and dumped the body in front of ABC. The LAPD's Gru is very powerful.
Hey, I can't control it. I want to yell and vent my brain, but I can't control it.
On January 13th, the man who was attacked was not dead, but why didn't Daqi reply to my message?
On January 14th, without replying to my message, Lisa told me that he was busy recently.
January 15th, Daqi, where have you been? What happened?
On January 16th, serious people don’t know how to write diaries. I want to return to the United States!
January 17th, Daqi, why is it like this?
Zhao Hongjin's diary was not recorded in the so-called diary. She posted a bunch of Moments and set it up to be visible only to Cheng Daqi - but Cheng always had no time to read it.
About Zhao Hongjin’s accusation, it was only because Mr. Cheng found Komodo, who was engaged in identity business, through Eris. This small American bureaucrat had great connections in California. With the help of Komodo, Mr. Cheng made the United States The Immigration Bureau locked Zhao Hongjin’s visa.
Xiao Zhao will not think about returning to the United States in the short term. This is what Mr. Cheng thinks is an appropriate response. As for whether it is good or not, moral or immoral, he does not care.
The rich black-haired woman is willing to bet everything, but Tamir is not the only one betting on Mr. Cheng. Mr. Cheng must continue to move forward, otherwise many people's lives will be affected by him.
Gathering momentum and momentum, Mr. Cheng worked diligently to achieve this, but this forced him to keep moving.
What would Eris think if he stopped?
If he stops, will there be any problems with his unspeakable undertakings?
This is only from a material perspective. From the choices that Mr. Cheng has made along the way, those things that he has given up, once he stops, how will he face himself?
A fanatical soul cannot calm down. If it keeps burning, it will either break through the south wall or die under the wall.
However, Mr. Cheng doesn’t think this is strange.
There are too many reasons to compromise, give up, and slack off in this world. Countless people embark on the road to the distance with their ideals, and then their ideals are crushed.
Mr. Cheng’s ideal has long been shattered, but he chose to build another one himself.
First put some morality on it, then go ahead and stuff the morality into it to make the foundation.
Let go of some of the principles you insist on. Principles are not absolute. You can also give up and stuff them into beams.
Finally, after kicking the one he loved away and giving up his personal feelings, Mr. Cheng resisted the pressure from Zhao Hongjin and his own inner pressure to build up the bloody piece.
Oh, of all the costs, the most insignificant seems to be time and energy. Cheng Daqi has lived long enough. He has also seen the splendor of the world, but he has also seen the cruelty of the world.
Sometimes being a little busier is a good thing. At least Cheng Daqi believes that it is worth it to be able to determine the destination. The stars are worthy of those who are on the road, and striving with goals can even numb the pain in the heart.
Themir is willing to give everything. Mr. Cheng has already done it, and he has done it even better.
Unfortunately, this is not something to be proud of.
Maybe Zhao Hongjin is right, he is a bit cowardly. After all, his heart is not really made of diamonds, and his heart is also soft.
That's why he hesitated again at the last moment, hoping to give himself a reason to compromise by persuading Themir.
No one is a perfect saint, not even a great person.
"Mi'er, your expression is too tense, are you nervous?"
Achilles has arrived in San Luodu. He is here to suppress the enemy in California. Don't move around, monsters and monsters.
Yes, California is the territory of the Donkey Party, but there are also many Elephant Party members here. Achilles is cooperating with the commander-in-chief, and his plans are very big.
The threat of the Ferbole system is like a knife on Gru's neck, ready to splash Niu Sen's blood at any time. The attack on Capitol Hill is even more so that the California gang is in a state of ecstasy. No matter how they deal with it, they seem to be unable to exert their strength.
But the most counter-routine thing Achilles did was that all his offensives were pending.
Are you falling out? Such as turning.
Aren’t you angry? It’s all said and done.
When are nuclear weapons the greatest threat?
When there is no use coming out!
If Achilles really takes action, the struggle will immediately become complicated and comprehensive, so he is very restrained and micro-manages.
Facing Achilles like this, Mier was of course nervous, but she would not admit it.
"Go in, I lived here for a while before, it was our family's property, but then I moved to the seaside and never came again."
Achilles is He came with a whole team, both a life team and a work team. He planned to live in California for a while. Kalamacris added so much business. As the actual business leader, Achilles He needs a team to follow him around to help him deal with it.
Of course Achilles's men know Mi'er. Although the relationship between the two is not good, it is the master's business, so they are naturally very respectful when facing Mi'er.
“Please follow me!”
The servant led Mr. Cheng through this manor. It was even bigger than Gru’s suburban manor. From the outside of the building, , seems to be quite old.
The so-called heritage of a wealthy family, just like this old house, is gradually accumulated in the long history of family struggle.
Achilles has the strength to transform into a wave and compete for the position of future leader of the party. Everything is inseparable from the innate advantages given to him by his family.
"He's right here, he's inside, miss."
After bringing the two of them, the servant withdrew.
"This is the gym, Chan. He looks down on us a little."
Mi'er is very familiar with this house. There is no dissatisfied expression on her face, but the meaning of her words is still the same. full of disgust for Achilles.
“Well.”
President Cheng opened the door and saw Achilles exercising on the rowing machine. This humanoid beast was accompanied by several personal followers. Some were holding towels, some were holding water, and some were holding tablets to make reports.
"..., in terms of copper mine prices, affected by production cuts in South America, London Copper and New Copper continue to rise, and the arrival price is relatively strong. We..."
Achilles noticed the success When the CEO arrived - he didn't even look at Mi'er. Instead, he looked at CEO Cheng first. Mi'er was his biological sister.
"Okay, needless to say, we will also reduce production and arrange for fires to affect mining or landslides to block transportation. We will take care of the details."
"Yes, I will go down first. ”
"Well, arrange it as soon as possible. The price of copper is still too low now."
Achilles' behavior of controlling the market and raising the price can be called a birthright, but he is a capitalist to begin with. From this point of view, there seems to be no problem.
"Chan, long time no see, what have you been busy with recently?"
While drinking water, Achilles got up from the rowing machine. He took the towel and wiped his sweat. The machine started chatting.
“It’s still the same, but I was attacked by a gunman some time ago. I thought you were dissatisfied with me, so I was so scared that I hid for many days.
As a result, Mi'er told me that you are not that kind of person. I came here specifically to apologize to you today. I misunderstood you. "
Tmir frowned. What Mr. Cheng said was completely different from what they planned. He didn't follow the script.
Xiao Cheng really put Mi'er in In his heart, Cheng Daqi knew that Mi'er was unwilling to bow to this brother, so he chose to use this insinuation to express his attitude to Achilles by bowing his head
The rich black-haired woman's mood at the moment. It's very complicated. She hates Mr. Cheng.
Why do you do so much for me?
Why do you do so much for me when you clearly don’t want me?
Subtle and tortuous, this subtle mood was so tortuous that she even forgot where she was at the moment and who she was facing.
In a social environment of smart people, Mr. Cheng’s statement has actually revealed a lot of information.
First: Mr. Cheng believed that the gunman was from the Achilles faction.
Second: Mr. Cheng was afraid and bothered, so he chose to bow his head.
Third: Brother, Mi'er actually bowed her head, you should be able to understand.
But Achilles was really confused about the situation, so he asked confusedly.
"I sent a gunman to look for you? Chan, I've been very busy recently, but my memory may be pretty good. I shouldn't have done anything like this.
Please tell me in detail what happened. What?"
Compared with Achilles' reaction, the remaining followers around him were not surprised. The business assistant just left, and the rest were his own.
Two of the three people on the field are core children of the Kalamacris family, and their followers are all old men of the Kalamacris family, the kind who have inherited the ancestral legacy.
Don't say that Achilles sent people to make the mastermind a black gun. Even if Achilles directly planned and sent people to open up the commander's imagination, these followers would not accuse or leak the secret.
Achilles was so confused that Mi'er was not distracted anymore. She didn't believe Achilles' lies and wanted to make some yin and yang comments.
Mr. Cheng had quick eyesight and quickly opened his mouth to block Mi'er's spellcasting.
"Mr. Achilles, that night I was with..., and then I hid.
Later, when I saw something happened in California, regarding Gru and Ferbole, I thought that you might have wanted to warn me at that time. "
After hearing the general explanation, Achilles just laughed.
"Things like black guns and murder seem to be very useful, but in fact they have backlash. They are double-edged swords. .
Only those who can't afford to lose, only those who have nothing. These idiots dream of solving real problems through off-site means. They can use this method to be rampant for a while. But it can't last long.
Chan, if I want to kill you, I can kill you right now. I can kill you anytime I want. Why do I need to send someone for a sneak attack? ”
It was obviously a threat, but Achilles looked at Mi'er, and he understood that these two people were here today to be subdued.
But just because they surrendered, it didn't mean that Achilles would choose to face them with a good attitude.
How did Achilles deal with the California Gang?
A two-pronged approach, applying extreme pressure!
How did Achilles get along with Mr. Cheng when he was in Florida?
Achilles' words were very rude, and Mr. Cheng was afraid that Mi'er wouldn't be able to suppress his anger, so he took advantage of the situation and picked it up.
"Yes, I understood it later. Mi'er told me this. She helped me eliminate my misunderstanding about you, and she even asked me to come here to apologize to you today."
< br>Without Mr. Cheng telling him, Achilles didn't even know that Mr. Cheng had misunderstood him, and Mr. Cheng's apology to him was unnecessary. Mr. Cheng knew it, Mi'er knew it, and Achilles knew it too. It's just stage talk plus bullshit. It sounds useless, but it can have a lubricating effect.
“Brother, sometimes Chan’s ideas are too wild and unrestrained.”
Achilles stopped talking. He was holding a water bottle in his hand and looked at Mi'er quietly with an unpredictable smile on his face.
He seemed to be expressing that he had seen through everything, and he seemed to be expressing contempt, but Mr. Cheng felt that it was not important. People like Achilles would not affect their decisions because of their so-called attitude.
They came here to ask for something. Themir has already said this, and Mr. Cheng has been given free rein, so he can naturally make some slightly excessive demands.
"Mr. Achilles, I wonder if you know what happened to the Dracula family recently."
Yes, Mr. Cheng and Temir are here to help Wolfe today. Damn, at least on the surface.
Give in, show your stance, and see if you can give Achilles a hand so that this old man can let Wolf go first.
The wave set off by Achilles is so scary that Chengzong and Mier are not willing to impose a hard cap - costs and benefits are a very complex issue. The benefits of a hard cap are unknown, but the costs and risks are undoubtedly Very high.
A certain Chinese kung fu master who punched strong men once said: Use strength.
"That old guy Joel called four at a time and tormented himself. Is that what you're talking about?"
Old Joel is almost the biggest joke in the top circles of the United States. He has provided everyone with a lot of fun recently, mainly because the way he ended up was so unseemly.
"Yes, Wolf is in charge of the Dracula family now. He is my friend. Now there is something..."
Mr. Cheng and Mi'er worked beautifully together today, although they did not act according to the script. , but the main line is basically fine.
"..., brother, can you help him? It can be considered as helping me."
The black-haired rich woman dragged Dracula into the local interest group of the Elephant Party establishment in one breath. After the matter was finished, while waiting for Achilles' answer, she felt her heart beating very fast, very fast.
“It’s a small matter, if someone blocks it, I will help you block it.”
Achilles actually agreed, and things went so smoothly that both Mr. Cheng and Mi'er couldn't believe it.
Looking at Achilles who agreed to Mi'er's request, Mr. Cheng even began to doubt that this potential uncle really had the kind of implicit affection for Mi'er that he didn't know how to express.
But soon, he shook this naive thought out of his mind.
"Brother, thank you."
Mi'er seemed very happy, her cheeks were slightly red, and her smile was very sweet.
Achilles waved his hand and asked about OC's recent situation. Mr. Cheng sat silently next to him, watching the strange brother and sister chat.
Weird.
Achilles' tenderness seems strange, and Mier's submissiveness also seems strange.
——
On the way back, Mi'er was driving. Mr. Cheng had just had two drinks with Achilles, so he sat in the passenger seat.
The night was not very bright, but there was light from the street lamps, but the expressions of Mr. Cheng and Mi'er were both obscure.
They don’t understand why Achilles has such a good attitude.
Unpredictability is the scariest thing.
"You just know how to eat, Chan. We are not going to eat today. You should find an excuse to leave early. There is no need to have dinner with him."
Mi'er held it in for a long time. , she chose to have surgery with Mr. Cheng - she felt angry.
"You still have to have an attitude. After all, he has promised to help Wolf get things done, and if we ease up with him this time, no matter how bad things get in California in the future, we will be safe."
Mr. Cheng I am quite satisfied with the food at night. Achilles's chef team is very professional.
Besides, it’s just a meal, there’s no need to worry about such a trivial matter.
"Every minute and every second I spend with him is painful, Chan. Sometimes I suspect this is a mental illness."
Mr. Cheng shook his head. , he thinks this is a kind of mental illness, but there are few normal people in this world, and it is normal to be sick.
"Also, Chan, why do you think he agreed so happily?"
"Maybe he thinks this matter is beneficial to the Kalamacris family, and this family is destined to be his. You are doing it for him I want to contribute to my career, so that’s why.”
The reason given by Mr. Cheng is a bit nonsense, reasonable but insufficient and unnecessary. Mi’er doesn’t agree with it.
"It shouldn't be this, or it's not just this. Our family doesn't need to go any further. What if we can go further? The tree is big and attracts the wind, so that's enough."
Listen to Mi'er's words. It doesn't sound logical, but it actually makes sense.
Achilles can already control the world easily, so why should he rush to the rafters to make the first move?
He can set off a wave with a single move, and can raise the price of copper to the point where speculators are screaming with just one sentence. How much more power can he gain by taking another step higher?
Mr. Cheng thought about it for a while, and after ruling out some possibilities, he said.
“There may be two factors. The first is that he is making such a big move this time, and his target is probably against California, and the Dracula family is the largest local Elephant Party holder in California. Wolf is also the vice president of the California Elephant Party Grand Committee. His future actions require Wolf's support.
The second one I'm not sure about. I think he is a little wary of our behavior today. Mi'er, we can't guess his behavior. On the other hand, is there a possibility that he can't guess our behavior either?
Because he couldn't figure it out, when we asked for help, he considered his own interests and the interests of his family, and chose to agree temporarily. After all, he didn't need to do anything to kill everyone, and it suits him to moderate appropriately with you. interests. "
Mi'er nodded slowly. She thought that of the three possibilities mentioned by Mr. Cheng, the third one might be the main reason, the second one is the secondary reason, and the first one is yet to be determined.
< br>After all, it was Mier who brought Rawolf into the core circle of the Elephant Party establishment, so Achilles is probably not willing to make wedding clothes for Mier
"Everything seems to be going well so far, let's take the next step. What are you going to do? ”
The black-haired rich woman knew Mr. Cheng’s plan, but she wanted to confirm again whether Mr. Cheng wanted to change the plan.
"Try your best, at least we won't lose this time, right?"
Mr. Cheng doesn't have much mental baggage, and he can get benefits by keeping his head down. What a good thing this is, in this world It would be great if everything could be done in this way.
“Hey, when I was doing some psychological construction for myself before, I told myself and even told you that I can pay any price, but when I just lowered my head, I was in pain so much that my blood surged up. Chan, I found that it seemed like It’s not worth it.”
Mi’er’s obsession was always strange. She had never struggled with these things before, but Mr. Cheng liked to struggle with them.
But now Mr. Cheng doesn’t care, but Mi’er starts to care.
"There is nothing worth noting. Sometimes taking a step back is to take three steps forward next time. We cannot be too rigid in the process of dealing with Achilles. The struggle requires methods and strategies."
成I always understand Temir's emotional brain. This girl was also very crazy when she went to him in the past.
"I feel like I'm not taking a step back, but losing my dignity. Chan, when I called him brother, I thought of my so-called rebellious behaviors in the past and the embarrassment today, ha, I think he must be very Look down on me, look down on me very much. "
The rich black-haired woman is a girl who lacks inner support. Mr. Cheng understands what she really cares about, so he just sighed.
“Achilles will not respect you who is rebellious, let alone you who bow to him easily, but there is a difference in this kind of disrespect. He doesn’t even respect me.
In my opinion, with his temperament, he will respect 99% of the people in the world who will never interact with him a second time, but he will not respect the 1% of people who have intersections with him.
Facing the former, he didn't bother to waste even a little bit of his emotions. Facing the latter, he didn't bother to show even a little more respect to anyone.
He is very conceited, but he is also very powerful. You can tell by looking at what he has done recently. The California Gang now has a deputy leader and a speaker of the House of Representatives. He actually picked up a knife and killed him in California. , I was in San Francisco two days ago, and now I’m in San Luodu.
Achilles doesn't even look down on the California Gang, but today he chose to help us solve the Dracula family's affairs due to many factors. This doesn't mean that we have his respect. ? ”
It’s very convoluted, what Mr. Cheng said is very convoluted, but Mi’er understands it.
"You are right about the conclusion. He does have this kind of character. He is extremely disgusted with stupidity, extremely conceited, and extremely rational. He is not like a normal human being."
Speaking of this, Milton For a moment.
“There’s no hereditary mental illness in our family, right?”
Mr. Cheng shrugged.
"Genius and lunatic are just one thought apart, maybe."
Mi'er didn't know whether Cheng Daqi was praising or scolding her, but she was more willing to believe that Cheng was always praising her.
"What should I do if I'm still unhappy?"
Well, Mr. Cheng understands Mi'er's unhappiness. This girl is really honest with him, and he likes to communicate like this.
The chat that the few of them had while eating just now was almost a top-notch interpretation of their own hidden agendas, and Mr. Cheng felt a little tired after eating.
Although Mi'er has some emotional brains and some strange thoughts, at least what this girl says will not put pressure on Mr. Cheng to think.
"Forget it, I'm not happy either. Didn't I hide before? I was actually waiting for someone, waiting for someone who could send all my enemies down to accompany me after I lost all my money.
< br>You can simply understand that I arranged a back-up, a back-up to attack. Ha, according to Achilles, this kind of behavior is a fool's behavior.
He is really rude, fortunately. I control my expression better.”
Achilles sprayed in a large area, and the result was that President Cheng was very upset.
"Goose~goose~goose~No, he also said that you are still a person who cannot afford to lose. You even have nothing, hahaha."
If a friend complains to you, the best way is not to comfort him, but to tell him that you are worse off than he is.
Mr. Cheng’s strategy worked well. Mier smiled so much that she shook the steering wheel from side to side.
"Isn't that right? Compared with the wealth that Achilles will inherit in the future, we have to continue to work hard.
If you give in this time, your small consortium worth tens of billions should also win. Let’s go back and look for Anthony.”
Go, Mi’er, give me the gold coins you got from Laoden!
Achilles is complaining about Mr. Cheng's feelings, so Mr. Cheng wants to poach him - coming and going but not going back is also disrespectful.
"But Chan, according to Achilles, the person who attacked you was not sent by him, then who was it?"
Mi'er finally asked what Mr. Cheng has been doing all along. avoidance of the question.
“I don’t know either.”
Mu Shang stopped at the red light, and Mr. Cheng replied with a sigh.
Who is it?
The storm over California has begun to accumulate, and the storm contains thunder.
What Mr. Cheng encountered was just a hint of evil wind overflowing from the storm. In the future, they will face a systematic strife among the top forces in the United States.
