Chapter 20 Andre's Arrangements

It was lightning all the way, and it was eight-thirty in the morning when Zhou Ming and Caitlin returned to Harrusburg, which was just before the morning meeting time.

The TGV train is really too fast. I didn’t expect that we were still in Paris the moment ago, and we returned to Harrusburg an hour and a half later, Caitlin sighed.

Yes, the most intuitive feeling of this high-speed train is that it is fast and convenient. If Harrusburg is not a distance from the city center, we need to drive by ourselves, and I am afraid our time will be faster. Zhou Ming said.

Compared to Caitlin, Zhou Ming's feelings about the high-speed rail are even greater. After all, he knew very well that in another twenty years, the development of the high-speed rail in China would become the world's number one. I still remember that he still lived in Linyang and his mother at that time, but he often had to go to the provincial capital Tanzhou. The high-speed rail only takes 40 minutes, which is almost the same as the subway work time in first-tier cities.

Of course, the ticket price of the high-speed rail is undoubtedly very expensive, but in order to take care of my presbyopia mother, I still insisted on living in Linyang for nearly half a month. Fortunately, my work had improved at that time, and I had achieved the position of deputy director of sales. With a certain business trip subsidy, my salary and bonus were also very considerable, otherwise I would not be able to afford the ticket price of the high-speed rail that was back and forth.

Zhou Ming and Caitlin's cars drove to the Harrusburg gate but were stopped again. Zhou Ming rolled down the window and saw that it was yesterday's security again. Zhou Ming smiled: Why do we still have to show the invitation letter today?

Faced with this problem, the security guard's face suddenly turned into a pig's liver color. Obviously, this topic made him feel very embarrassed.

Seeing him like this, Zhou Ming had to sigh and said to him: Friend, was it because of yesterday's incident that you were scolded by your superiors and you were unwilling to let me in like this today, always thinking about making things difficult for us

Of course, it was not as dirty as you thought I was just like you. The security guard said angrily.

Zhou Ming shook his head helplessly. He obviously stopped telling himself: I'm like this, my friend, I have 10,000 francs here, just treat it as compensation given to you yesterday. Do you think it's okay?

Seeing the stack of banknotes Zhou Ming took out, the security guard immediately looked straight and couldn't believe it: Is this really for me? Why are you so kind? You won't have any other purpose? Let me tell you, I will definitely not betray any Harrusburg interests.

Zhou Ming couldn't help feeling a little funny when he listened to the security guard's righteous declaration, so he said: Of course, I believe it very much, and I don't have any extra purpose. I just don't want you to always want to stop my car, that's all. As for money, believe it or not, I don't short of money.

Zhou Ming said that, he took out another 10,000 francs and said to him: You and your friends must have worked very hard for the safety of Harrusburg. For the other 10,000 francs, you and your friends will buy more red wine and drink it, just pretend that I have paid for you first.

Hearing Zhou Ming say this, without waiting for the security guard to speak, the colleague behind him couldn't help but come forward and nodded and said: Sir, you are so generous. We will pray to God to give you blessings. I promise that the door of Harrusburg will always be open to you in the future.

Just kidding, you should know that no one will be unable to get over money. These security guards are not so loyal to the Harrusburg family or Andre. Now someone suddenly takes out their bonus for several months, and doesn't say what they want to do. Otherwise, they will be killed by heaven and earth.

Zhou Ming smiled and said thank you, then rolled up the window and drove into Harrusburg.

Is that why you took out the money from Joros yesterday? I don't think there is anything good for these people to buy. Caitlyn asked.

Maybe their status is not high, and it doesn't seem to help us, but this is a habit. I don't want to be troubled by them every time I enter and exit Harrusburg. Wouldn't that be ugly? Zhou Ming said, of course, the most important thing is that I didn't spend much money. A rich man with one million yuan, do you think it's still called spending money if he wants him to spend a dollar?

Caitlin shrugged and said it didn't matter. She didn't know yet that Zhou Ming's seemingly whim would be the most exciting finishing touch they took back Harrusburg later.

Parked the car in the parking lot behind the castle, where the special servants of the castle were waiting here. Zhou Ming and Caitlin got off the car and followed the servants of the castle to the lobby in the castle. The lobby was the same as yesterday, but because there was no one here now, the place looked relatively empty and there was one more seat than yesterday.

His Highness Caitlin, this is your seat, which was specially added for you by His Excellency Andre. The servant explained to them.

Caitlin was very surprised by this explanation, and she asked Zhou Ming: What's going on

Zhou Ming shook his head and said: I don’t understand it for the time being, but it certainly is not a good thing that seems. In short, since he has given him a seat, let’s sit down first. As for grabbing the position like yesterday, you can’t come out every time.

Caitlin thought that this was true, and the position was close to the podium, which was similar to the Ifaman that Zhou Ming snatched yesterday, and the chairs were similar to other chairs, so he sat here with peace of mind. As time passed, people who came to Harrusburg came in batches, making the hall more crowded.

Louise is still the last one to come, and her status in Harrusburg can be seen from this.

Louise came in and greeted Zhou Ming Caitlin enthusiastically and told them that she must cheer today.

When she sat back to her position, Caitlin said a little strangely: Why is my aunt's behavior so strange, but she doesn't seem to see what's strange.

She was too obvious, and I don't think this is a good sign. Zhou Ming made it clear.

After everyone was all here, Andre walked into the hall, which was different from others. He came in through the side door of the hall. After coming in, Andre walked directly to the podium. Of course, Zhou Ming noticed that he was holding a microphone in his hand.

Hello, friends of the Harrusburg family, I am very happy to meet you here again today. Let us share our wishes for the future of the Harrusburg family. Andre said this and seemed to remember something and said, oh by the way, our Ms. Caitlin and Mr. Zhou Ming from China, we also welcome you very much.

At the end, Andre also deliberately added: If Mr. Zhou Ming is looking for something, you can look next to your seats. I have prepared a microphone for you. In fact, I have placed a microphone in every position, so that everyone can hear it clearly.

Caitlin reached out and touched it, and found Mike on the chair, but compared to the one in Andre's hand, the Mike that Caitlin got was much smaller.

Thank you very much Mr. Andre, you thought very thoughtfully. Caitlyn said to the little wheat in her hand.

Caitlin said this on purpose. She wanted to try whether this little wheat really had a sound. When she heard her voice really coming out of the loudspeaker, she was very surprised. She looked at Zhou Ming in confusion, and Zhou Ming shook his head and didn't understand Andre's meaning for the time being.

At this time Andre said again: Beautiful lady, please don’t doubt my sincerity. Since I have prepared these microphones, they are of course usable.

We have no doubts about this. Zhou Ming said, and I think the beginning of the meeting will be more important than this.

I agree with Mr. Huaxia's words. Our meeting is the only purpose of everyone gathering here. So now, I think we can officially start this meeting.

After briefly speaking, Andre quickly entered the theme: The Harrusburg family is a wealthy family with a very long history. We are all proud and proud to be born in such a family. However, our family has not lived well in recent times. I don’t want to say who is responsible here, but as members of the Harrusburg family, we all have our own mission to shoulder this family.

My name is Franz Andre Carl f Harrusburg, and now I also own more than thirty-five percentage points of shares in Furger Bank. In addition, I also own family property in the Netherlands and Venice, including the industries you are currently operating. It can be said that the business fields where I and you all are in are basically the same.

As Andre said, everyone else below nodded constantly because they were all members of the Harrusburg family. They all knew that the Fuger Bank in Andre mentioned was actually the largest bank completely controlled by the family, and it can also be said to be the core of family finance.

Speaking of this Andre suddenly changed his subject: So now, since I have the Furger Bank and I also own your industry, after this meeting, I should inherit this family. I can use sufficient confidence to lead the family to a more glorious future. I will definitely take back all the territory thrown away by the previous patriarch. As long as you can all support me, let me inherit it.

Hearing Andre's words became more and more excessive, Caitlin picked up the microphone anxiously, but she had just said half a word and her microphone disappeared.

This was very embarrassing, and everyone else laughed. Caitlin was both ashamed and angry, but at this time Zhou Ming pointed at Andre on the stage. Caitlin immediately looked up and saw the gesture Andre had just withdrawn.

This was the move of Andre's bastard Caitlin scolded.

Zhou Ming nodded and told her: So this is why he specially arranged the microphone. With this thing, he can completely control our voice. As long as he feels that we will say something that is not good for him, he will immediately cut off our communication.

It's so despicable, Caitlin said hatefully, it seems that the only way to ask my aunt to help us next.

I don’t think about this idea anymore, because your aunt will not help us. Zhou Ming thought about it and said that she would not do anything until we really did it to make trouble for Andre.

Just like Zhou Ming, you said, unless we can gain an advantage on our own, right? Caitlin asked again.

Zhou Ming nodded affirmatively: I think that's the case.
