After leaving Harvard University, Zhou Ming did not go to Lowell City as soon as possible, but went back to the dormitory to take a shower and change into clean clothes. Since all the students in the financial class moved away, the people had lost interest in continuing to surround and left one after another. However, although they were surrounded for not long, the dormitory had become dilapidated, and there were many traces of burning on it, which was shocking.

Faced with this dilapidated dormitory, Zhou Ming reminded himself that he was still in crisis at all times. He must not relax at all before the enemy fell, and he must persevere until the end, because no one knows what kind of accidents will happen, just like in Lawrence's office before.

Perhaps Zhou Ming was very successful in the whole process, but in fact, Zhou Ming still felt very psychological pressure. After all, Edward's phone call not only disrupted all Zhou Ming's deployment, but even forced him into a desperate situation. In that case, Zhou Ming could not say a word wrong. This pressure can be imagined, so that he did not dare to breathe heavily when he spoke, and could only hold his breath.

Zhou Ming still remembers that his hands and feet were shaking unnaturally when he was talking. When he finally got Lawrence's promise, he still couldn't breathe a sigh of relief. Therefore, when he finally walked out of Lawrence's office, he could feel the coldness behind him, obviously he had been soaked in cold sweat.

If you have time to think carefully and think about every minute and every second, maybe everyone can become a millionaire, but more often, people usually don’t have this opportunity, so what they need is the ability to react instantly.

Zhou Ming doesn't remember this sentence in which book he saw, but now Zhou Ming believes it very much.

After changing her clothes, Zhou Ming got into the car and went to Lowell. On the way, Zhou Ming took the time to call Lin Muqing and told her about the incident in Lawrence's office. When Lin Muqing heard the news that Edward really called Lawrence, she was frightened. Later, when she heard Zhou Ming perfectly convinced Lawrence, she breathed a sigh of relief.

Along the way, Zhou Ming kept thinking about news about Lowell: The city of Lowell is a very distinctive city in the northwest of Brighton. It is the base camp of the Lowell family and a city named after the Lowell family.

More than a hundred years ago, this was Massachusetts' textile industry and other light industry centers. Later, due to the development of the times, the Brighton Consortium gradually became a financial-centered chaebol, and Lowell, which had lost his competitiveness, gradually declined.

However, the Lowell family is an important member of the Brighton Consortium after all. Although the city of Lowell has declined, the Lowell family has used its strength to contact many universities and set up many university branches here. The more famous ones are the branches of the University of Massachusetts and Harvard University. In addition, Lowell has also introduced many technical training schools based on the abandoned factories in the past.

So speaking of this, Lowell City is like a university town as a whole.

After more than two hours of driving, Zhou Ming and the others finally arrived in Lowell City. It was already evening. Because it was very late, and Zhou Ming spent too much energy from Governor Edward's vacation villa to President Lawrence's office at Harvard University during the day, Zhou Ming also spent too much energy. Therefore, Zhou Ming said that Lowell City did not plan to directly find the Lowell family, but went to a hotel to sleep for a night before talking about it.

But what Zhou Ming didn't expect was that his idea was just an idea, because when his car entered downtown Lowell, he was immediately stopped.

Several policemen stopped Zhou Ming. When Zhou Ming asked to park his car on the side of the road, the police went up and said: Is it Mr. Zhou Ming who came from Harvard? Mr. Louis arranged a dinner for you at Auburn Castle. I hope you can go over and attend. If you are not familiar with the streets of Lowell, my brothers and I can send you there.

No thanks. I bought a map of Lowell before coming. I think there is no mistake in such a famous place as Auburn Castle. Zhou Ming declined.

After receiving Zhou Ming's answer, the police did not say much and left quickly. Zhou Ming looked at their backs as they left and suddenly felt that this trip to Lowell was not as simple as he thought.

Don't worry about him, soldiers come to block the water and soil. Even Lawrence has passed the barrier. What else can I be afraid of?

Under such an idea, Zhou Ming asked to drive directly to Auburn Castle. He knew that the policeman called Mr. Louis, the current patriarch of the Lowell family.

Looking at the roadside trees that were constantly retreating outside the window, Zhou Ming was constantly thinking. Judging from the fact that the police had given him messages when he entered the city, it was obvious that they also knew that they were coming here, and it was more likely that Lawrence had called here. After all, as the controlling family of Harvard and Massachusetts, the two major universities, the closest relationship between them is the Brighton Consortium.

Another point is that Zhou Ming saw what a city under the control of a large family is.

This is not to say that the Lowell family is the absolute king of Lowell City. How come the United States has long been running into a modern society. As a beacon of freedom, they must have an independent political system, but no matter how good the system is, there are always loopholes.

As a big family, Lowell undoubtedly has a very high prestige in the region. At the same time, with the help of the Brighton Consortium, it is still no problem to control the parliament through campaigns and then let descendants enter the administrative and judicial organs. Even if the mayor and the speaker cannot be members of the Lowell family, at least it is okay to say that the Lowell family can control most of the Lowell city.

It is precisely this reason that the Lowell family sent police to inform themselves. Zhou Ming knew very well that the Lowell family did this to make themselves believe it, because if a few people ran out casually, they might not really believe it, but the police had the most basic trust.

However, this kind of private family mobilized federal police officers sounded like an extortion, but it was normal in Lowell.

The city of Lowell is not big, and the Castle of Auburn is also very conspicuous as the first sign of the city of Lowell, so Zhou Ming arrived soon.

As before, at the gate of Auburn Castle, there are also several policemen waiting here, and there is also a sheriff.

When Zhou Ming got out of the car, the sheriff walked up to shake hands with Zhou Ming and said: Hello, Mr. Zhou Ming, I am Sheriff Charles, and I am also a member of the Lowell family. My uncle has been waiting in the castle for a long time.

Zhou Ming thanked him, and then followed the Sheriff Charles to the main hall of the castle.

Pushing open the door of the main hall of the castle, melodious music immediately came to his face. Zhou Ming walked into the main hall and was surprised. He felt like he had arrived at the aristocratic castle in medieval Europe.

The carpet is covered with a thick red carpet, with several large round tables on it, white tablecloths, and candles lit on the table. There is an empty stage directly in front of the table, and there is a whole band sitting next to the stage. The melodious music is undoubtedly sent from here.

At this time, the round tables were already full of people, with only one round table in the middle and two empty seats.

That is the location my uncle has prepared for you for Mr. Zhou Ming. Due to my identity, I can only send you here. Goodbye.

Sheriff Charles left this sentence to Zhou Ming and left. Zhou Ming had no time to care about him, because when Zhou Ming walked into the main hall, a short middle-aged man sitting in the middle stood up and said: Our distinguished guest is here, everyone welcomes him with applause.

With this sentence, applause suddenly erupted in the main hall. Zhou Ming walked towards the other side with the applause. The short middle-aged man came over and shook hands with Zhou Ming and said: Mr. Zhou Ming, you are very welcome. I am Louis of the Lowell family. I think you should have heard my name. Our Lowell family is very hospitable, so we specially prepared a dinner for you.

Zhou Ming knew that the person in front of him was the patriarch of the Lowell family. It seemed that this family had the usual French tradition, but their height was generally flawed.

Thank you very much, Mr. Louis, you are so polite. It was my uninvited person. You set up a dinner for me specifically, which made me a little flattered. Zhou Ming said.

After some politeness, Zhou Ming and Louis sat down on the seat, and as they sat down, they seemed to be magical, many servants walked out from the side, and they first prepared tableware for all the guests.

Today, all of us are in the city of Lowell, who are very close to our Lowell family. Although our Lowell family is an ancient family, we are not conservative. On the contrary, we pay great attention to absorbing fresh blood because we know very well that only families that can keep vibrant can continue to flourish.

When placing tableware, Louis introduced to Zhou Ming that as the tableware was arranged, someone pushed a cart up. The servants brought up the plates covered with the dining plates, placed them in order in front of everyone, and then unfolded them.

This is the French cuisine we are famous all over the world. Today, we prepare lobster airlifted from Australia, as well as tender steak and foie gras caviar, which are the most nutritious and exquisite dishes.

Louis introduced Zhou Ming one by one, and then he suddenly remembered something and said to Zhou Ming: By the way, there are also the best top-notch wines produced by Lafite Winery. The grapes that make wine are picked from old vines that are at least forty years old, because only such grapes can make the most outstanding wines. It’s a pity that most vines will not survive for thirty-five years, so they are very precious.

While speaking, Louis asked his exclusive servant to open a bottle of wine and poured a glass for Zhou Ming with his own hands.

This cup is for you and my guests, let us clink glasses and make the most beautiful sound for tonight's feast.

Louis said as he raised his glass, Zhou Ming and Zhou raised their glass and then drank a small sip each. While they were drinking, the servants who served on the side consciously cut foie gras for them and prepared caviar.

Drinking a sip of red wine, eating a piece of foie gras, and pairing with the best caviar, it was simply a kind of a wonderful enjoyment Louis said to Zhou Ming.

As Louis and Zhou Ming clinked their glasses, the people on other tables also raised their glasses and ate them.

At this time, Louis began to tell Zhou Ming about the prosperity of the Lowell family: Mr. Zhou Ming, our ancestors of the Lowell family came from France a long time ago. Although we have been away from France for more than 300 years, we have retained the oldest French custom, Mr. Zhou Ming. You may not know that in our Lowell family, there are actually many interesting customs, that is, we will dance happily when we eat.

It was like proof that when Louis finished speaking, a table stood up and danced on the stage. In order to cooperate with them, the band next to him also played a more suitable music.

With the first table, there was a second table immediately. Louis also invited Zhou Ming: Mr. Zhou Ming, should I jump and see what my servant will teach you?

Zhou Ming shook his head and declined, but he looked at the people dancing on the stage, and all the things that Louis arranged for him, welcoming and preparing for dinner. What medicine did he sell in this gourd
