, the fastest update of the goddess’s wealthy son-in-law (also known as: the goddess’s super son-in-law, protagonist: Zhao Xu)!
Shanlang led a group of his men to General Horace Ward's mansion and ordered his men to stand guard at the door.
He walked into the general's mansion alone.
There was a scene of singing and dancing in the general's mansion.
A dazzling array of delicacies fill every corner.
Here, there is no sense that Carmen is a war-torn country. Compared with those homeless refugees, there is a huge difference.
Zhao Xu followed Staxi all the way.
Stasi took two glasses of wine from the table and handed one to Zhao Xu.
Staring at Zhao Xu, he smiled charmingly and said, "Mr. Li, let's have a drink first, shall we?"
"Okay!" Zhao Xu smiled slightly.
Since it's a cocktail party, of course you have to drink when you come.
The two of them touched the glasses lightly and each took a small sip.
"Let's go, I'll take you to see Miss Fannie."
Staxi took Zhao Xu to search among the crowd.
After searching for a long time, he pointed to a petite woman wearing a long jeweled dress and said, "That is Miss Fanny!"
"Horace Ward had three sons and one daughter. He was very kind to Miss Fannie."
Zhao Xu followed Stacie to Miss "Fanny".
Stacie waved and said hello, "Miss Fannie!"
Fanny raised her head and looked towards Staxi and Zhao Xu. She immediately ran to Staxi, took Staxi's hand and said with a smile: "Stasi, you're here!"
"Hey, who is this person? Is he your bodyguard? Why don't you see Mr. Ralph?" Fanny asked Stacie in a fluent voice.
Stasi explained: "Something happened at home, and Ralph stayed at home to deal with the matter. This is the one I told you, Mr. Li!"
Fanny looked at Zhao Xu intently, stretched out her hand to say hello and said, "Hello Mr. Li!"
Zhao Xu held Fanny's hand, kissed her gently on the back of her hand, and greeted with greetings: "Hello, Miss Fanny!"
This is foreign etiquette, and it's not that Zhao Xu has lust for Fanny.
In Zhao Xu's opinion, his masked face couldn't be more ordinary.
If you were in China, if you were thrown into a crowd, there would be no waves.
Maybe there is a big gap between the aesthetics of foreign women and the aesthetics of domestic women. Fanny actually thinks that Zhao Xu's face is a bit handsome and he has a special masculinity.
Fanny said to Zhao Xu: "Mr. Li, I heard that you are in the oil business?"
"Yes!" Zhao Xu nodded. Said: "I have oil industries in Taiyu Island and Feidin Island. In addition, I also have rubber and port businesses."
"I originally planned to do gold business in Carmen, but Mr. Relf told me that the gold business license is no longer approved."
"That's right!" Fanny nodded.
Fanny and Stacie were about the same age. Therefore, the two have similar interests and get along well.
Staci took the opportunity to ask: "Fanny, where is your father?"
"Oh, he's busy with something and will be out soon."
"Come on, let's go have a drink first."
Fanny took Staci and Zhao Xu to the side.
What Stacy didn't expect was that Zhao Xu used a little magic to quickly get acquainted with Fanny.
It has to be said that even Staxi was amazed by Zhao Xu's magic skills.
You can use a rubber band to thread into another rubber band, or you can use an empty cup to conjure money out of thin air.
In fact, these little magic tricks are just deception. It only requires a few tricks and quick techniques to complete.
Normally, Zhao Xu likes to watch some magic tutorials and learned from them.
Unexpectedly, it would come in handy here.
For a time, Fanny's favorable impression of Zhao Xu skyrocketed.
Firstly, Zhao Xu is an oil tycoon and is worth a lot of money; secondly, Zhao Xu is humorous and very popular with girls.
The three of them each took a glass of wine and clinked their glasses with each other.
Fanny took a sip of wine and asked Zhao Xu, "Mr. Li, are you living abroad or in China now?"
"In China!"
"I heard that your country is beautiful and has many civilized and historic sites. I've always wanted to visit it."
"If there is a chance, I can be Miss Fannie's guide."
Fanny smiled and said, "Thank you!"
At this moment, Fanny noticed her father, Horace Ward, coming out.
Say to Zhao Xu and Staxi: "My father is out!"
Zhao Xu followed Fanny's gaze and looked over.
I saw an old man in military uniform with white hair walking slowly down the steps.
Although this man is late, it is not difficult to tell from his sharp eyes that he is a tough guy.
As soon as Horace Ward appeared, the people who came to attend the reception immediately separated on two sides.
I saw Horace Ward striding to the center of the field.
He said loudly: "Everyone! You are all the top figures in Carmen. We promised you that we will protect the interests of everyone present. As you can see, we have always followed this request. Although there is still a war in Carmen, It didn’t cause you any losses.”
The crowd was enthusiastic and shouted the name "Horace Ward" with arms raised.
"Horace Ward!"
"Horace Ward!..."
Zhao Xu looked at Horace Ward and saw that this man looked like he was enjoying himself.
Taking the opportunity, he said to Fanny: "Miss Fanny, after a while, can you help me introduce your father to you alone? I want to talk to him alone."
"Are you going to talk to my father about investing in gold mines?" Fanny asked.
"Yes!" Zhao Xu agreed.
"I'm afraid I'm not that optimistic!"
"If you don't try it, how will you know the result?"
Fanny thought for a while and said, "Okay!"
Zhao Xu was secretly happy when he saw Fanny agreeing.
Thinking about how to deal with Horace Ward next.
Next, Horace Ward delivered an impassioned speech. Meaning, they Carmen will protect the wealth of the upper class elite.
However, their military and financial resources are stretched thin.
After hearing this, Zhao Xu finally understood.
Horace Ward organized this reception to profit from these rich people. Otherwise, why protect them?
Everyone who came to the cocktail party was dumbfounded.
I didn't expect this would be the result.
However, things are more serious than they imagined.
A group of guards walked in in an orderly manner, and the meaning was obvious. As long as they dare to resist, they will be immediately punished by Horace Ward.
These upper-class people had no choice but to make excuses one after another and began to donate money one after another.
Only then did Zhao Xu realize that Lambrelf was an old fox. He had already figured out the purpose of the reception and deliberately refused to come.
Otherwise, how could we miss the opportunity to contact Horace Ward.
Fanny smiled brightly at Zhao Xu and said, "Mr. Li, since you are an oil tycoon. Why not make some contribution to our country?"
