Chapter 57 The most uneasy ally
At eight o'clock the next morning, Zhou Ming and Caitlin arrived at the Elysee Palace, with President Jacques' secretary waiting at the door. Following him, Zhou Ming and Caitlin came directly to the President's restaurant. The French President's Mr. was still dressed as usual, wearing a custom-made black suit, very solemn and formal. He was having breakfast at the moment. When he saw Zhou Ming and Caitlin's arrival, he did not forget to invite them.
Zhou Ming was not polite about this. He took Caitlin and sat down and reached out and grabbed the bread in front of the President and put it in his mouth. On the other hand, Caitlin was much more elegant, but just sat there and waved to the staff of the Presidential Palace to bring two more breakfasts.
This made Jakar's secretary so shocked that his eyes were about to glar, but the president didn't say anything, so he had to do it.
Soon, the staff of the Presidential Palace brought two more breakfasts. Zhou Ming asked Jacquel while eating: Dear Mr. President, I think you must have prepared what happened this morning.
Jacques nodded and replied: We can set off after breakfast. Queen Elizabeth and I made an appointment to meet in Normandy.
With President Jacques' answer, Zhou Ming was relieved. This was also the most important thing he had come here today. The Normandy meeting place that Jacques mentioned was not as expected by Zhou Ming, because in fact, the British royal family was once a duke in France. He defeated the former British king through war and dominated that country. Even now, the Queen of England still holds the title of Duke of Normandy.
The Queen of England is now old and cannot easily move around. She hopes to talk to her territory; on the other hand, the French president naturally does not want to go to London. If there is a place that both sides can accept, it is naturally Normandy, the founding place of the British royal family.
Normandy in France is a very famous place because there was a largest login battle here half a century ago. However, when Zhou Ming and Jacquel flew to Normandy on his special plane, he realized that this place was actually just an island under British control. There was a miniature airport on the island, and next to the airport was the Queen's Palace, although the French coastline was not far south of the island.
When the plane landed, Zhou Ming saw another plane parked here, which was the private territory of the British royal family, which proved that Queen Elizabeth was already waiting here.
The plane landed smoothly. Zhou Ming and Caitlin followed Jacquel off the plane and took a bus to the Queen's palace under the guidance of the British royal housekeeper.
Finally, in the Queen's reception room, Zhou Ming Caitlin and Jacquel met her. Elisabeth was wearing a very simple dress. Apart from the Queen, only her housekeeper and servants from the palace were left. It seemed that this was indeed just a private meeting.
When Queen Elizabeth saw Zhou Ming and the others coming, she reached out to signal them to sit down and acted as a master.
After Zhou Ming and the others sat down, Elisabe said: Mr. Zhou Ming, I think you should understand that as the heads of their respective countries, Mr. Jacquel and I usually have a lot to do. It is an unreasonable thing for us to come out to see you today, and it is already the greatest respect for you. I hope you don’t waste our respect.
Zhou Ming smiled at this and said: Whether it is a waste depends on the perspective from which point of view it.
Elisabeth and Jacquel both expressed their willingness to hear the details, so Zhou Ming asked them: I think with your status, you must have known what happened in Mexico.
Elisabeth and Jacquel looked at each other first, then nodded. They both said to Zhou Ming: We are very regretful about Joros' affairs. We didn't expect Mexico to be so chaotic, and we didn't expect Jefferson to dispatch his own private army like this. This is too unimaginable
However, my intelligence officer told me that Joros is still in good health. After all, it is almost time to enter the 21st century, and there will be no such savage things that really happen. I think Mr. Zhou Ming can rest assured. Elizabeth also said.
Zhou Ming was not surprised and they would directly admit that they already knew. After all, those who are here today are not fools. It would be boring to hide it like that. It would be better for everyone to be more straightforward.
It seems that both of them, Zhou Ming, who had known the news for a long time, asked again.
Jacques immediately denied: Zhou Ming, you said this, wrongly accused us. We are not prophets and do not have the ability to prophesy. We only received the news yesterday.
Elisabe on the other side also said: If we want to know this news in advance, we will definitely notify Mr. Zhou Ming. After all, it is related to our investment in Mexico. I still expect the returns brought by those investments to help me solve the problem of the repair cost of Buckingham Palace.
Listening to their shirks, Zhou Ming smiled: Her Majesty the Queen and Mr. President, I don’t think you should be too nervous, because I am not here to indict you today, but I want to tell you a result.
What resulted in Elizabeth and Jacquel asked in unison.
That is, I will not give up on Mexico's plan. I will go to Mexico in person to continue this plan, and I will save Joros. Zhou Ming said.
Elisabeth and Jacquel were shocked at the time. Although they had thought of this possibility before, this possibility was too outrageous. You should know that there was a precedent for Joros, and he should give up if he was more sensible. After all, bullets are not eye-catching, because Jefferson wanted to take Joros for his own use, so he spared his life. But it may not be like this to you. Isn’t you seeking death?
It was precisely this idea that later they all guessed whether Zhou Ming would plan Mexico through another way, but they didn't expect that Zhou Ming was really looking for death.
Elisabe immediately praised: This is really an incredible heroic decision. Mr. Zhou Ming, you let us see the courage from China. Such courage was once the momentum of three hundred Spartan heroes fighting tens of thousands of Persian troops. Warriors are God's blessings. So I believe that under the protection of God, such momentum will bring miracles.
Jacques followed closely and said: That's right, to be honest, I didn't expect that Mr. Zhou Ming, you can make such a decision. Your persistence is responsible for your commitment, but since you have made a decision, we will respect you and provide you with the necessary help as much as possible.
If you care about Zhou Ming a little, you must advise Zhou Ming not to go at this time. But now Elizabeth and Jacquel are not complimenting Zhou Ming's courage, and they also say that they will provide help in irrelevantly.
This obviously means that Zhou Ming's decision is very good for their appetite. They hope that Zhou Ming will go to Mexico to help them with the thunder. If they succeed, they can harvest a wave in Mexico and get a very generous return on investment. Even if they fail, they will not lose it. They do not believe that a small illegitimate child dares to deduct their investment in Mexico.
To put it bluntly, Elizabeth and Jacquel's idea is to take advantage of you
Zhou Ming is very clear about this, but now he does not have the capital to bargain with them. On the contrary, even if they do some tricks in the middle and cheat themselves behind their backs, he can only break his teeth and swallow it. Who made me not a wealthy family in the world now?
Under such circumstances, Zhou Ming secretly swears in his heart: Wait, one day I will make no one dare to despise me anymore, and I will only take advantage of you. Don’t want to take any advantage of me again.
Zhou Ming gritted his teeth in his heart, and at the same time made a confident attitude: Thank you very much for your support and encouragement from Her Majesty the Queen and Mr. President. You gave me greater confidence. This made me regret that I did not make the decision to go to Mexico in person from the beginning. Perhaps I started to make such a decision, and that would not happen like this now.
Elisabe immediately echoed Zhou Ming and said: Yes, that's a pity. After all, Mr. Zhou Ming, you are the one who has received God's blessing, and it's different from Joros.
Jacquel also said: But it's not too late for you to figure it out now, because with Joros's previous preparation, all the preliminary work must have been completed. Next, the whole world is waiting for Zhou Ming, you go to Mexico to create a big news.
Elisabeth also said: And there is another important thing. Jefferson is a smart man. He will think that because of Joros' arrest, you dare not go to Mexico again because of fear. He never thought that Zhou Ming, you would have such great courage, so he relaxed his vigilance. At this time, Mr. Zhou Ming, your anti-thinking action, I believe there will be a higher chance of success.
Thank you very much, I believe that with your support, this time, things are one step closer to success.
Zhou Ming said happily, but then suddenly changed his words: But Her Majesty the Queen and Mr. President. Another thing is about how Jefferson knew about my news. I never understood whether someone betrayed the news behind the scenes.
In response, Elisabe and Jacques both unanimously denied it. Elisabe said: Oh my God, how is this possible? It turns out that Mr. Zhou Ming, are you suspicious of us? Heavenly Father is here. Mr. Zhou Ming, please believe that we will never do such things no matter what.
Jacques also said: Mr. Zhou Ming, you are investing in us. Even if we don’t give you the greatest help, I don’t think we will betray your news. Isn’t this approach contrary to your own interests? This is the biggest stupidity.
If it weren't for knowing that they were all old foxes in politics, Zhou Ming would have almost believed it with their conviction.
If this is the case, it would be better, and I would be very willing to trust my allies. Zhou Ming smiled and said, then let Her Majesty the Queen and the President continue to help keep the secret for me, otherwise I might not have done anything more crazy in Mexico. If I accidentally hurt others, it would not be a pleasant thing.
