Chapter Five Hundred and Sixteenth Jin Yu Liang Yan(1/2)
Lord Duke Thomas was shaking with anger and gave Sally a fierce look.
Sally on the side finally reacted. She rushed forward, pulled up Situ Bingbing and walked outside. Anna also helped push behind. The two of them pulled and pushed one by one, trying to get Situ Bingbing away, but Situ
The glacier seemed to have taken root and remained motionless.
"Let her stay here." Seeing that Situ Bingbing was unwilling to leave, Zhou Sen could only bite the bullet and stand up for her. Of course, the main reason was that Zhou Sen was afraid that Situ Bingbing would fall out and hurt others. After all, this
He wouldn't be surprised if a woman did anything immoral.
"That's right, let her stay here." Seeing Zhou Sen talking, the three envoys quickly helped.
Seeing that the three envoys actually helped Zhou Sen and Situ Bingchuan to speak, Duke Thomas felt something was wrong. However, no matter what, he still had to respect the opinions of the three envoys in person.
Duke Thomas never dreamed that these three envoys had been favored by Zhou Sen. They were none other than Yue Lao Da, Cui Wei and Lao San who had been rescued by Zhou Sen.
After the three of them were rescued by Zhou Sen last time, they joined the camp of the third princess. With their bravery and loyalty, the three of them soon gained the respect of the third princess. Until now, they have become the only people in Ronnie City.
figure.
Currently, the three of them have become the confidants of the third princess on the Roni planet.
It is precisely for the above reasons that the three people recommended themselves to the third princess as envoys...
…
After some chaos, Zheng Changgong began to arrange for manpower to intervene, and the banquet hall that almost became a casino finally got back on track.
The banquet was held nearly an hour in advance.
According to Duke Thomas's previous plan, he would discuss it before meeting the three envoys. However, because Sally took advantage of his meeting and packed everyone into the banquet hall, all the previous arrangements came to nothing.
Now, Duke Thomas can only bite the bullet.
After some polite greetings, Yue Jiangshan, the three of them, and Lord Thomas Duke sat down and chatted about the future of Ronnie Star. They came and went, but they didn't get to the point.
Duke Thomas felt a little strange, because the three envoys were talking about random things from beginning to end and did not talk about business.
"What is the attitude of Her Majesty the Princess now?" Duke Thomas became a little out of control and simply asked straight to the point.
"Her Royal Highness, please let us listen to Mr. Zhou's suggestion." Yue Jiangshan glanced at Zhou Sen at the other table.
"Why did you listen to him?" Duke Thomas had a look of displeasure on his face. Obviously, this suggestion offended him. After all, what we were talking about now was the future of their Howard family, which had nothing to do with Zhou Sen. Moreover, he
I don't want an outsider to get involved in the future of the Howard family.
"Your Excellency, Your Highness the Princess said so." Yue Jiangshan said, neither humble nor overbearing.
"Are you sure?!" Duke Thomas's face turned gloomy.
"Your Excellency, your humble position is confirmed. This is what Your Highness the Princess has specifically stated!" The expression on Yue Jiangshan's face also became grim, and his attitude became obviously tough.
Duke Thomas fell silent for a while.
Now, Duke Thomas began to doubt Zhou Sen's identity.
Does Zhou Sen have anything to do with the royal family? Or is he an undercover agent sent by the third princess?
"Your Majesty the Duke, our time is precious!" Yue Jiangshan began to exert pressure, and his tone became emotionless.
"What do you mean?" Duke Thomas held back his anger.
"Please come over, Mr. Zhou."
"Are you sure?!"
"Sure!" Yue Jiangshan nodded very definitely.
"Okay! Okay! I'd like to hear what good suggestions he can give!" Duke Thomas laughed angrily, turned around and said to Zheng Changgong, who was standing not far away: "Please come over, Mr. Zhou!"
No wonder Duke Thomas was angry, because letting a low-level employee of Meteor Mecha Company decide the future of the Howard family seemed ridiculous in itself, and this ridiculous scene was playing out in front of him, and he couldn't stop it.
Zhou Sen, who was eating and drinking with Situ Bingbing, was called to Duke Thomas' table.
Zhou Sen saluted Duke Thomas and then sat down. From beginning to end, he was neither humble nor overbearing, calm and unhurried.
"Mr. Zhou, Her Royal Highness the Princess said she wanted me to hear your opinion!" Duke Thomas launched an attack before Yue Jiangshan could speak.
"Third Princess?" Zhou Sen was stunned.
"Yes." Duke Thomas was also stunned. He found that Zhou Sen was not mentally prepared. At least, he did not know that the third princess wanted to listen to his advice before.
"Does it mean the third princess?" Zhou Sen's eyes fell on Yue Jiangshan's face, and he wanted to confirm.
"Yes, Mr. Zhou, Your Highness the Princess specifically confessed." Yue Jiangshan leaned forward slightly, and his leaning movement made Duke Thomas's mind move, because he felt Yue Jiangshan's respect for Zhou Sen, which was a kind of respect.
Respect from the bottom of my heart.
"Hey, Your Highness, you are setting me up for injustice!" Zhou Sen sighed.
"How do you say this?" Yue Jiangshan was stunned.
"What you are talking about now is the cooperation between the third princess and the Howard family, and I am just a small employee of a company owned by the Howard family. The third princess asked me to give direct advice. Where is the dignity of the Howard family? At the expense of the Duke's face.
Where? Third princess, third princess! You are doing a lot of harm to people, you are doing a lot of harm to people!" Zhou Sen smiled bitterly. He finally found a quiet place to practice, but when the third princess made such a fuss, it seems that this place
I can't stay any longer.
"Ah...Mr. Zhou, I'm sorry...how about I contact Her Royal Highness the Princess now..." Yue Jiangshan said quickly.
"Forget it, the Duke is already separated, and it's too late to make amends." Zhou Sen glanced at Duke Thomas indifferently.
"..." Duke Thomas found that Zhou Sen's light gaze was full of penetrating power, as if he could see through his internal organs.
"Then Mr. Zhou..." Yue Jiangshan hesitated and asked.
"Your Excellency, if you have any questions, it's okay to just ask. If my guess is correct, the third princess will not embarrass you." Zhou Sen said calmly.
"Why do you say that?" asked Duke Thomas.
"Since the third princess asked you to seek my opinion, it means that she has given up control of the Howard family."
"Ah...are you sure?" Duke Thomas' eyes lit up and he asked quickly.
"I'm sure, but..."
"But what?"
"However, the future of the Howard family is still full of uncertainty. Moreover, the third princess giving up control of the Howard family does not mean that she will let the Howard family get out of control." Zhou Sen's deep eyes sparkled with wisdom.
"I would like to hear the details!" Duke Thomas' expression became solemn.
"I think that neither the Ronnie Empire in name only nor the three isolated princesses can hope to control Howard's giant family, because the uncertainty is too great. It is not good to rely on you, and it is not good to alienate you.
Well, I am afraid of causing a backlash when controlling you. If you are close, you will be resentful if you are far away! In short, the risk is very high. According to normal development, after this twists and turns, the Howard family will quickly develop its own military power. This is the general trend.
No one can change it, not even the three princesses. However, with the financial resources and military potential of the Howard family, they can build up a military force that is feared by any force in a very short period of time. Under this situation, the three princesses can't change it.
If the princess approaches you rashly, it is possible that... haha... I believe the Duke understands." Zhou Sen smiled and said meaningfully.
Duke Thomas took a deep look at Zhou Sen and fell into a long silence.
This man has such a thorough mind!
Before, no one knew what Duke Thomas was thinking. In fact, his decision to surrender to the three princesses against all opinions was just a temporary decision. In fact, the eight elders of the Howard family were far less thoughtful than him.
Duke Thomas' real purpose was to eat up the military power of the third princess. Deep down, he did not take the third princess to heart.
Now, Duke Thomas felt that all his thoughts were exposed in front of Zhou Sen, as if he had no clothes on.
"Your Excellency, Duke, I was talking about the situation faced by the third princess. Do you want to hear about the situation of the Howard family?" Zhou Sen said with a smile.
"Think!" Duke Thomas blurted out.
"Don't be attached to anyone! Don't try to be emperor! Set yourself an impossible task!" Zhou Sen said word by word.
"Please clarify!"
"The history of the Howard family is longer than the history of the human interstellar federal government. It can be traced back to the ancient Earth era. Even the Meteor Mecha Company has a history of more than 800 years. Such a deep-rooted company with strong financial resources and mastery of countless high-tech
The big family, attached to any force, has the strength to replace it. Therefore, when someone tries to get close to the Howard family, they are more coveting the wealth of the Howard family. Once they have the opportunity, they will not hesitate to uproot the Howard family.
rise……"
"Please continue!"
"So, don't rely on any force, just do your business! As for proclaiming the emperor, haha, this is easy. Although the Howard family owns the Meteor Mecha Company, it is difficult to reach the top thousand in the ranking of forces in the five major star regions.
After all, in addition to mecha companies, there are many powerful families in many fields that can crush the Howard family, such as the optoelectronics field, the biological field, the engine field, the interstellar spacecraft manufacturing field, the large equipment manufacturing field, the energy field... giants in various fields.
There are countless. If the Howard family becomes emperor, it means that they will face giants in all fields, because you were originally business partners or competitors. Now, if you become emperor, what will others think? It is foreseeable that they will do so openly or covertly.
Stumbling the Howard family. Your Majesty, Duke, do you think the Howard family can stand out from the crowds of hundreds of giant families? Of course, I know you won’t give in, and neither will the Howard family members.
Willingness, but this is not a question of willingness, but a question of strength. Your Majesty, Duke, do you have confidence in the strength of the Howard family? Please answer directly!"
"Have confidence!" Duke Thomas said firmly.
"Yes, this is the problem with the Howard family. I believe that everyone in the Howard family has confidence in themselves, because your true strength has not exploded yet, but have you ever thought about this question? Why is the Howard family declining? Meteor Mecha
Why is the company getting worse and worse? Of course, the Duke will not admit it, but this is the fact. You have to admit that the Meteor Mecha Company is the main business of the Howard family, and the Duke has controlled the Meteor Mecha Company for more than thirty years.
Years have passed. In the past thirty years of development, Meteor Mecha Company has not become better, but has become worse and worse. This is enough to show that the Duke does not have enough ability to make the Howard family rise." Zhou Sen stopped, with a look on his face.
Looking at Zhou Sen playfully.
