Chapter 107 Luxurious appearance
Rhode Island is a ** state located in the southeast of Massachusetts and the largest state with the smallest and largest population density in the United States. On Sunday, September 16, Zhou Ming and Lin Muqing took a bus to the beachfront club in Rhode Island.
"This beachfront club is the best private harbor in the entire Hope Bay. It is usually used for yacht club parties. It has the best and most complete facilities, the most convenient transportation, and of course there are confidential measures that many people praise. It is our excellence that makes many rich people really like to choose here for vacations and parties, or bring their business partners to visit. Sir, you will choose this place and you will be the most correct decision!"
After Zhou Ming and Lin Muqing got out of the car, the club manager took the initiative to come forward and talked to them. After Zhou Ming and Lin Muqing arrived at the restaurant on the shore, Zhou Ming waved him to leave. Of course, Zhou Ming's words were still very tactful: "Manager Gilman, I have something to discuss with this lady, please help me stare at the harbor. If you receive the information from my guest, please tell me as soon as possible?"
As the club manager, Gilman certainly understood Zhou Ming's order to expel guests, so he left very sensible.
When Manager Gilman left, Zhou Ming and Lin Muqing each ordered a drink. Lin Muqing asked Zhou Ming: "Look, can I wear this kind of dress today? I originally wanted to wear formal clothes, but I thought that today was not a formal company negotiation. It was more like a negotiation party between several parties, but it could not be too casual, it would not seem formal enough..."
Before Lin Muqing finished speaking, Zhou Ming interrupted: "My Sister Muqing, you are just a natural clothes rack. Of course it looks very beautiful, and it is very suitable for today's occasion. Didn't you see that manager Gilman just now and didn't want to leave?"
Lin Muqing gave Zhou Ming a blank look, but she was still very happy to be praised by Zhou Ming because she had chosen the purple ruffled sleeve slim evening dress she wore for several days. It was elegant and elegant but not solemn, which was very suitable for today's occasion.≥∈≡.┮. After all, as Zhou Ming's woman, she knew very well how rare the opportunity today was, and she didn't want her to be reduced in terms of dressing.
"But I still didn't expect that Zhou Ming, you can really tell those three families and join forces with you to deal with the Adams family." Lin Muqing sighed.
Zhou Ming smiled and shook his head and said, "Don't say it's Sister Mu Qing, I didn't expect it to be so smooth."
Zhou Ming said that, remembering the incident of visiting three families in one day last week. He went to Governor Edward's villa in the morning, and after lunch, he went to President Lawrence's office in Harvard's office, and in the evening he went to Auburn Castle in the Lowell family, and persuaded them one by one.
It was precisely because they were convinced that this meeting today was the tone that Zhou Ming had set for Governor Edward, which was to let spokespersons of the three families gather together and discuss face to face.
As for Rhode Island, which is located outside Massachusetts, it is because of their special identities. As the three major families of the Brighton Consortium, it is undoubtedly a bit too rampant to discuss how to deal with him under the nose of Adams. In addition to worrying about the intervention of the Adams family, there is no news about Tong Gang and Li Cheng and Ilbedov, which also makes Zhou Ming worry about Lin Muqing's safety. So after thinking about it over and over again, Zhou Ming chose Rhode Island, an enclave in southeastern Massachusetts.
It seems to be an incredible miracle to Lin Muqing to convince the three families of Kendian, Lawrence and Lowell, and it is also true for Zhou Ming himself.≤net≠.╇┮.┮c┼o┼m┯After all, these three families and Adams belong to the Brighton Consortium. Although there are big problems in the distribution of the wealth of the consortium and other matters, they are still one in the end. Zhou Ming himself is not sure if he wants to convince them to be with him. At most, Zhou Ming just wants to fight, but he only wins the final result.
But although he thought so, Zhou Ming sighed and said, "But the success of that day does not necessarily mean that today will be smooth."
"Do your best, Zhou Ming, I believe that since you have come smoothly that day, you even convinced the entire Lowell family that you can do the same today!" Lin Muqing said.
"I hope." Zhou Ming said as he took a sip of the drink, and then said to Lin Muqing, "Sister Muqing, since we have come, let's relax yourself while we are now. What should come will always come, don't break yourself too much."
Then Zhou Ming took Lin Muqing to the beach. Zhou Ming changed into a swimsuit and went to the sea to swim. Lin Muqing was worried about temporary makeup and doing first-hand problems, so she didn't swim with Zhou Ming and sat on the shore.
It was soon two hours, and it was twelve o'clock in the afternoon. The club's manager Gilman came over and asked: "Ms. Sir, are your guests not here yet? Do we need to prepare lunch?"
Faced with this problem, Lin Muqing took the initiative to say: "Prepare some desserts and drinks first. Mr. Zhou just went to the sea to swim and needed to replenish his energy and moisture. As for other meals, I won't prepare it for the time being."
"Okay, but I would like to remind you that our meals are all freshest. If you miss the best time to eat, we will also calculate the losses caused by your bill. ≧∈╊.,” Gilman said.
"I know, there is no need to prompt this." Zhou Ming frowned.
Gilman left and informed the kitchen. Lin Muqing asked Zhou Ming: "I remember you said you made an appointment with them today at noon? Why haven't you arrived yet? Is there something wrong with it? Do we call and ask?"
Zhou Ming shook his head and said, "I don't think it's necessary. If they can come, we don't need our urging. On the contrary, if we really encounter any problems, it will be useless for many calls. So Sister Mu Qing, we should be more patient and wait."
Just like Zhou Ming's patience, they waited here for four hours.
As the sun gradually sinks to the sea, Manager Gilman comes again: "Ms. Sir, have your friends not come yet? It seems that your party is going to be postponed, but today, although you do not use most of the facilities in the club, all the fees will still be deducted as usual. I need to tell you first."
"Didn't we already know this when we signed the contract? It seems that there is no need to say it again, right?" Zhou Ming asked.
Gilman explained with a smile: "I'm sorry for this, because we have never had Chinese guests here. We are more worried that you have insufficient funds and will cause some unnecessary trouble."
Although Gilman's words were very tactful, Zhou Ming still understood very well. He just felt that Chinese people were poor and would be petty with him.≠≈≮??.┯╳.┼c╃o╊m
"Don't worry, I won't owe you a cent if I should pay." Zhou Ming said.
"If so, then of course it's the best." Gilman said, "Does Mr. Zhou Ming still need to continue waiting? Our contract does not include evenings. If Mr. Zhou Ming waits, he needs to continue renewing the contract."
"Then let's renew your contract. I said that I won't lose you if I pay a cent for a penny." Zhou Ming emphasized again.
Gilman, who got the answer, left satisfied. Looking at his left back, Lin Muqing said unhappily: "This Gilman is too arrogant, right? We are customers at least, how can he look down on him?"
Zhou Ming sighed and said, "This is what Americans think. Chinese people, in their impression, Chinese are poor, they are petty and petty without any concept of contract. Let's do this today. Sister Mu Qing, don't be angry. Anyway, we probably won't come here again in the future. There is no need to be angry with such a guy who is so arrogant."
Zhou Ming and Lin Muqing talked, but saw Gilman coming again. Lin Muqing asked him angrily: "Didn't you explain it to you just now? Why are you here to do?"
"I want to tell Mr. Lady that we just received the news that maybe the guests you have been waiting for are coming." Gilman said, his eyes a little strange.
Zhou Ming and Lin Muqing didn't understand Gilman's eyes, but they understood when they followed Gilman to the port.
A harsh roar came from a distance, and when you see, a red and white amphibious plane was landing on the sea and then heading towards the shore.
"My God, this is a limited edition amphibious aircraft from Bell. It is said that this type of aircraft has never been sold publicly. Only Bell gave it to people with very identities. I have never seen such aircraft in the club for so long. Sir, is this the guest you are waiting for?" Gilman said in surprise.
Faced with Gilman's surprise, Lin Muqing stepped forward and took Zhou Ming's arm, and raised her eyebrows to answer Gilman and said: "That's right, that's an important figure in the Lawrence family."
"The Lawrence family? Is the Lawrence family of the Brighton Consortium?" Gilman asked blankly.
Lin Muqing nodded proudly and said yes. This answer made Gilman gasp, and at the same time he subconsciously straightened his back and disrespected Zhou Ming and Lin Muqing. After all, the one who can make such a luxurious appearance is definitely an important figure in the Lawrence family. Their identities are obviously not simple if these two Chinese people can invite important figures in the Lawrence family.
Fortunately, I didn't say too much before, so I should pay attention to them more in the future.
Gilman thought so in his heart, but he didn't know that this was just the beginning, and he still didn't think enough about Zhou Ming.
While talking, he saw that the amphibious plane had slowly docked on the shore. Zhou Ming and Lin Muqing stepped forward to greet each other. Sure enough, Harvard's principal Lawrence got off the plane. He took the initiative to hug Zhou Ming and Lin Muqing enthusiastically: "I'm sorry for the time I wasted in the middle, so I have made you wait for a long time."
"It doesn't matter, we can understand, and you are the first to arrive, Mr. Lawrence," said Zhou Ming.
"Is that true? There are such things, those guys are so inappropriate!" Lawrence said a little angrily.
"It's okay, but I believe they will come here, so I'll take Mr. Lawrence to sit down first."
Zhou Ming said that, and took Lawrence to the restaurant behind. But as soon as they sat down, Gilman came over to inform them that someone had arrived again. Of course, Gilman's attitude this time was much more respectful than before.
However, Zhou Ming and Lin Muqing had no time to care about his change of attitude. They came to the port with Lawrence and saw a luxury cruise ship not far away driving over white waves.
Looking at the cruise ship, Gilman was surprised again: "My God, this ship is a unique cruise ship in Phoenix Shipyard. It is used to showcase the company's advanced technology. I just saw the concept at the Phoenix Expo, and I have never heard of anyone selling this cruise ship. Even many wealthy people have no idea how to start. Is this your guest?"
This time, Zhou Ming and Lin Muqing had no time to speak, Lawrence snorted coldly and said, "This little guy from the Lowell family just likes to do these flashy things! Do you think it would be great to own Phoenix shares?"
Almost as soon as Lawrence finished speaking, waves suddenly rolled on the sea surface of the port, and a huge shadow gradually rose from the bottom of the sea.
Gilman was so surprised that he could hardly stop talking. He pointed to the other side and said stutteringly: "Submarine, is that a large private submarine?"
