Volume 4: The World of Great Conflict Chapter 0417: The Sparrow
Decree date.
As it was approaching dinner time, the bodyguards were grilling sea bass caught from the river and beef bought from the supermarket on the lawn. The charcoal fire was burning brightly, and the grilling beef and steaming sea bass made sizzling sounds, and the aroma wafted everywhere.
On the right, Wu Zaisheng's car appeared; on the left, Wu Er and his fox were alone, peeking their heads out there.
Wu Er has short legs, but as a red fox, he can run at a speed of fifty kilometers per hour. There is delicious food here and there is no danger. He ran quickly towards Nan Yi, and when he was about three meters away from Nan Yi, he made an emergency brake.
After smelling, observing and exploring, Wu Er completed a series of steps. Then he slowly walked to Nan Yi's side and made "ahhh, ahhhhh" sounds, which were very similar to those of a child.
It first curled up on the ground, looked up at Nan Yi and acted cute. Seeing that Nan Yi didn't respond, it stood up, quickly circled around, running and jumping, making a lot of noise. Then it returned to Nan Yi and lay down, continuing to act cute.
Nan Yi smiled, took out a medicine bottle from his pocket, poured out two pills, crushed them into powder on the table, then took a piece of raw steak and used it as a rag to wipe the table.
Suddenly, some white appeared on the blood-red steak.
Fortunately, Wu Er doesn't talk, otherwise he would have started to scold him, "What do you mean, you didn't tell me before you gave me the drugs?"
Seeing that he had drugged the steak, Nan Yi knew that Wu Er would have to try several times before eating it, so he was too lazy to hold it in his hand. Instead, he threw it directly to Wu Er's mouth and let him try it slowly.
Nan Yi has never skinned a fox, but he has skinned a wild rabbit. If you cut open the spine on the back of a wild rabbit, you can usually see it crawling with parasites.
Nan Yi thought that the fox that ate rabbits and voles was probably not in good condition, so he should give it some anthelmintic.
While Wu Er was repeatedly testing the steak, Wu Zaisheng had already walked to Nan Yi's side.
"Why are you provoking the fox? If you feed it today, it will come every day in the future. It may even bring a group of them and make its home here."
"It's okay. They are quite popular. I can afford to feed a few foxes."
"You haven't seen enough. When you stay here for a long time, you will get annoyed by seeing too many foxes. When I was a child, a fox sneaked into my house and almost bit me."
"Are there shadows?"
"That's not the case, I just don't like them." Wu Zaisheng said, and just then he saw Lao Wu and Wu San coming over, so he said, "Look, if there is one, there will be a second and a third."
"Haha, they are from the same family. They came here together yesterday." Nan Yi smiled and changed the subject, "Why are they here now? Have you eaten?"
"Not yet, I'll eat here." Wu Zaisheng walked to the table, took a piece of tin foil, and picked up a cooked sea bass. "I'm good at grilling sea bass. You can try my cooking skills later."
"Okay, I'll wait to eat then."
As he spoke, Nan Yi took out another medicine bottle and poured out four pills.
…
After the sea bass and steak were grilled, Nan Yi and his friends started eating.
"Ayi, my grandpa wants to see you."
"You should call me Nan Yi from now on. Ayi sounds weird."
"Okay, Nan Yi is Nan Yi. When it's convenient for you, come to my house and meet my grandfather." Wu Zaisheng said indifferently.
"Why does your old man suddenly want to see me?"
"It's not that sudden. He actually wanted to see you a long time ago, but I just never mentioned it to you."
"Okay, since the old man wants to see me, I'll go and bother him some other day." Nan Yi pulled the fish skeleton out of the fish body, broke up the fish meat with chopsticks, picked up a piece of fish and stuffed it into his mouth, "What does your grandfather like? I can't go to your house empty-handed."
"Just buy some fruit, no need to be so particular."
"Then I'll decide for myself."
Wu Zaisheng was too polite to offer any suggestions, so Nan Yi didn't ask any more questions. He raised his glass and clinked it with Wu Zaisheng's. The two of them ate while chatting.
The news of the major renovation of Boleyn Castle and Catherine's acquisition of Chelsea spread throughout aristocratic circles.
The Boleyn family, which was apparently on the verge of collapse, has surprisingly come back to life, which has disappointed many people. They were supposed to be able to wait for their share of the spoils soon, but now there is a rumor that Catherine from the Boleyn family is a financial elite?
Fuck those fucking elites!
In a study on the third floor of a large manor in Bexley Borough, London, an old man in his seventies was looking at the documents in his hand. "A delicious piece of cake is gone. If you want to get Bentley, it seems you have to wait a little longer."
After saying this, the old man took off his reading glasses and looked at the young man opposite him, "Cancel all arrangements for Catherine first, and wait and see if this Catherine is really a financial elite."
The young man also had a look of helplessness on his face. He knew what the old man said: the duck in his mouth flew away. Although he was unwilling, there was nothing he could do.
"Slater, try to contact Catherine and Bolin Investment. Since you can't have your cake and eat it, then maintain a certain relationship with Bolin Investment. If you have money, you have capital. You can make money quickly in finance.
If Catherine is really an elite, then you might as well try to pursue her. Our Cardiff family needs such a talent."
The old man, Kessel Cardiff, thought about his grandson's virtues. He was smart, but lacked determination, so he warned him again: "It is our family's tradition to stand on the side of the strong. Even if you can't achieve it, don't make enemies. Do you understand?"
"Thank you for your advice, Grandfather. I will find a suitable opportunity to contact her."
Although Slater was a little unwilling, he was very convinced of his grandfather's vision. The Cardiff family's current strength was inseparable from his grandfather's sharp vision.
Similar conversations took place in many places in England. Although the final decisions were different, one thing was the same, which was to stop the arrangements against Catherine and wait for the aristocratic cocktail party to come to test Catherine's quality.
It turns out that there are quite a few nobles waiting to tear the Boleyn family apart.
Nan Yi naturally didn't know about these things. He could guess that other nobles would target the Bolin family, but he didn't have a sharp hearing, so he naturally had no way of knowing who was targeting them.
Although the intelligence group of the National Intelligence Planning Committee consists of three teams: Hawkeye, Bat, and Ghost, they can only focus on collecting commercial intelligence and it is impossible to cover everything.
Gathering intelligence is very expensive, not to mention that the Nan family has limited strength now. Even if they have trillions of assets, it is impossible to expand their intelligence capabilities.
Only when big data can really play a role, and we can change from taking the initiative to waiting for the objects of collection to automatically submit information, can the intelligence efficiency of the Intelligence Planning Committee be maximized.
During these two days, Nan Yi did not go out, but Catherine acted out a "crossing the ocean to sleep with you" drama, and took the initiative to come to his door.
After pushing Nan Yi several times towards becoming a useless person, Catherine took off the pillow under her hips, took a bath, and then became full of energy.
Sitting in front of the dressing table, combing her hair, Catherine asked casually, "When I came here, I saw three foxes outside. Are they yours?"
"No, just like you, you are a bird and they are foxes."
Nan Yi rubbed his sore waist and sat up from the bed. If he stopped smoking, he would not have the so-called sage time. He could not have that moment of relaxation. He always felt that something was missing.
Nan Yi called her a "self-made bird", but Catherine did not take it as an offense. She just continued, "I have seen a doctor. It is easier for me to conceive at 1 pm tomorrow or 7 pm. I will stay here tomorrow."
"what ever."
When enjoyment becomes a task, even the most interesting things become boring.
If Catherine were placed outside, she would also be considered a goddess-level character, but Nan Yi is a little annoyed with her now.
It’s true that behind every goddess, there is a guy!
"She thinks of herself as a stud. Should I change my name to Nan Bolin Family Deliveryman Yi now?"
Apart from the important issues of human relations, Nan Yi started thinking about Wu Zhenkai.
This kid makes Nan Yi a little disappointed. He really wants to give him a copy of "Biography of Li Shimin". If he wants to become a hero, he should act decisively.
Make a plan, launch a change in Juelu Street, imprison that old man Wu Jingyuan, and then kill Wu Zaisheng. Wouldn't the Wu family be in our hands?
It doesn't matter if you get a little bad reputation, it won't prevent future generations from praising you as a "business tycoon of the generation".
Nan Yi felt that Wu Zhenkai's actions were too slow, so he had to find a way to give him a push.
After combing her hair, Catherine sat down next to Nan Yi and asked, "What are you thinking about?"
"I didn't think much about it. There's a snooker table downstairs. Let's go play a game." Nan Yi stood up and said.
"My hands hurt, I don't want to fight."
"Don't make excuses. You have to play. I tell you, I am no longer the same person I used to be. After hard work and practice, I now have a resounding name - Repulse Bay One Shot Clear."
"Heh, I'll give you 40 points."
"Don't look down on me. Today I will show you what 147 points means."
"Adam, I'm so scared." Catherine said, patting her chest.
"Oh, I have such a bad temper. Come on, if I don't kill your arrogance today, I'm not called Adam. We agreed that you would give me 40 points."
Ever since Nan Yi and Catherine played a snooker game in Xiangkeng last time and lost by a large margin, Nan Yi has learned his lesson and wrote down his hard training process in his diary. Now he dares to give O'Sullivan a hand.
