Chapter 52 Gift

Bobby asked, "Are you sure Liu Zhen will monitor the goods?"
Liang Xi said: "She is a smart and good police officer."
Bobby didn't understand: "What kind of reason is that?"
Liang Xi said: "It's useless to explain. I suddenly remembered that it's Mary's birthday , and I have to buy a birthday present. You can get off now."
Bobby was dissatisfied: "Hey, I spent a lot of pounds to rent a bunch of warehouses, and used the Blondie to alert the police. Can't you at least answer my questions?"
Liang Xi disagreed: "You spent money, but you gained happiness. I didn't make a penny, and I didn't have much happiness. Do I still have to explain to you?"
Bobby pointed at Liang Xi and asked, "How about I celebrate Mary's birthday with you?"
Liang Xi asked in confusion: "You would rather deduct my salary and not even reimburse me for gas, why are you so generous to others?"
Bobby asked back: "Suppose you have 100,000 pounds and I invite you to go to the haunted house, will you go?"
Liang Xi thought for a while and said, "This is not a matter of money. It's mainly because I have something to do that day."
Bobby said, "You'd have to be poor to accompany me on a haunted house expedition for a hundred or two hundred pounds."
Liang Xi was surprised: "You are a smart guy."
Bobby was dissatisfied with Liang Xi's evaluation and said, "Our Clement family has been doing business for generations and has a talent for managing talents."
Liang Xi said: "You mean: If I hang out with you, I won't have a good life."
Bobby chuckled and said, "Of course not. Maybe in a few days I can give you the right to use a luxury house."
Damn! I didn't realize this guy is so vicious. On the surface, it seems that Bobby is kind-hearted and gave me a luxury house for my use, but the key is that you only have the right to use it and cannot sell it. At the same time, he can take the house back at any time if he is unhappy. Do you want to live in an apartment or a luxury house? Of course, a luxury house. After you get used to living in a luxury house, will you agree if Bobby makes some excessive demands? In order to live in a luxury house, it is okay to be wronged occasionally. Then Bobby will test the bottom line step by step to bully me. After I am conquered, he will be bored and turn around to find new toys. My luxury house, luxury car, etc. will be taken back by him.
It is difficult to go from luxury to frugality. Once you get used to a life of luxury and have a rich and luxurious life circle, it is equivalent to handing your fate over to Bobby. What is the difference between this and a deal with the devil? Blond Knight Bobby? It would be better to call him Little Devil Bobby.
Liang Xi raised his middle finger and said, "Get lost." John's famous quote: Stay away from those who have the power to control you.
Bobby asked, "You mean you don't want me to come to Mary's birthday party? Because you don't want to explain the whole story to me."
Liang Xi looked at Bobby for a while and said helplessly, "If Liu Zhen contacts MI5, she will face an extremely complicated situation. If the goods have not been attacked or stolen, then Liu Zhen's tip-off that the Golden Hairpin gave her will make her a laughing stock in the industry. If the goods have been attacked, MI5 will definitely cause trouble for Liu Zhen again and conduct an internal investigation on her, and even suspect that she has communicated with the bad guys and deliberately set off an alarm to transfer the goods again. Even if they believe Liu Zhen, MI5 will still ask about the phone call and try to get Liu Zhen to provide detailed clues. At the same time, whether the goods have been attacked or not, MI5 does not want anyone to pay attention to this batch of goods. Liu Zhen's contact with MI5 is likely to cause internal conflicts and turn to investigate Liu Zhen."
Liang Xi said: "Liu Zhen is a smart person. She knows what troubles will arise after contacting MI5. She can't be sure whether the blonde hero is real or not, but she can't turn a blind eye to the content of the call that can conceal the caller ID, change the voice, and call her directly. Otherwise, once MI5 really loses the goods, she will be derelict in her duty. Liu Zhen is a good police officer and a smart person. Therefore, she knows that the best option is to use a small amount of resources to monitor the goods. If there are bad guys attacking the goods, she can stop the bad guys' behavior. If there are no bad guys attacking the goods, she will not get into trouble because of this. Even if she is discovered by MI5 during the surveillance, she can explain it with the tip-off from the blonde hero. It means that she did not believe the blonde hero's words, but she did not dare to take it lightly, so she sent people to monitor."
Liang Xi said: "So Liu Zhen's monitoring of the goods for 72 hours is her best practice."
Bobby asked, "What if Liu is really not smart?"
Liang Xi said: "I don't like stupid people. Smart people always have clues. They will make the best and most optimal behaviors based on their own interests. Ordinary people sometimes don't think too much or don't understand things fully. They can easily make suboptimal or bad behaviors. Unable to predict the other party's behavior, naturally lack certain advantages."
Bobby asked, "You didn't plan to tell me originally. It was only after Liu Zhen expressed his concern for you that you decided to give the clue to Liu Zhen."
Liang Xi nodded: "If someone respects me one foot, I will respect him ten feet. If you are willing to increase my daily salary to 2,000 pounds, I will hire you for 20,000 pounds if you fall into poverty in the future."
Bobby ignored the subject, opened the car door, and asked, "Saturday night? Tomorrow night?"
Liang Xi: "Seven o'clock in the evening."
Bobby: “Location.”
Liang Xi said, "Mary's house." Where else could they go?
Bobby nodded, got on the bodyguard car and called his housekeeper: "Please buy me a trained Golden Labrador, suitable for a single 65-year-old lady to keep. Also, order a five-year service package, with a full-time staff to regularly handle the dog's hygiene, physical examination, grooming and other issues. This is an important birthday gift, please don't embarrass me." Golden Labrador is not common in other countries, but it is a common guide dog breed in the UK. It is a hybrid of a golden retriever and a Labrador.
Mixed breed dogs have many advantages, but also some disadvantages. Bobby wants to buy a golden Lado with as many advantages as possible and as few disadvantages as possible. As for the price, it is the factor he least needs to consider.
Bobby knew that a dog's companionship and protection was the best gift for an old lady who had lost her husband. Liang Xi also considered raising a dog, but the subsequent care and maintenance of a dog took a lot of energy, time and money. The main reason was that Liang Xi couldn't afford a good young functional dog that had been trained.
Liang Xi didn't know what gift Bobby would give, but he knew it must be a gift he couldn't afford. He reflected on Bobby as he drove back to his apartment. He had to admit that he had underestimated Bobby before because Bobby not only had no talent in the field of ghost hunting, but was also a fool. But after talking with Bobby today, he found that Bobby had outstanding talents that he didn't have.
This is still a lazy and idle Bobby. If he is a diligent and motivated Bobby, he will definitely have a place in the management of the Clement family. This not only makes Liang Xi think of the reason for Bobby's mental illness. However, due to information asymmetry, Liang Xi didn't even know the basic structure of the Clement family and how many brothers and sisters Bobby had, so he naturally had no way to infer.
