Fang Lang came to Commodore Jackson's office again early the next morning. Under the leadership of Commodore Jackson's adjutant, he signed a ship purchase contract with the U.S. Department of the Navy and paid the ship payment of US$135,000 to the U.S. Department of the Navy. on the account.
After completing the formalities, Fang Lang returned to Brigadier General Jackson's office.
"Fang, please hurry up on your personal matters. I have notified the commander of your Brazilian Expeditionary Force. We will assign a transport ship to your Brazilian Expeditionary Force. You will be the captain and be responsible for the route from Brazil to Italy. Your Brazilian Expeditionary Force Navy Colonel Attilio Parisi is already asking you when you can go report. I postponed it because you are still participating in the training and assessment of the US Navy. But they should come to you soon, So you have to hurry up.”
Sure enough, the relationship of interest is the most reliable. After paying consulting fees to Mrs. Jackson and adding John's relationship, Fang Lang and Brigadier General Jackson now have a close uncle-nephew relationship. Therefore, Jackson would directly help Fang Lang cover up many things.
"Uncle Jackson, in addition to coming to you to get my aunt's bank account today, I just want to hurry up and finish my personal affairs. But there are some things that I think may be helpful to Uncle Jackson, so I came here to see you!"
"Oh! Tell me! What would be helpful to me?" Jackson was stunned when he heard that it would be helpful to him.
"That's it, Uncle Jackson, because my global trading company wants to set up a branch in Italy, so I want you to help introduce the Italian garrison commander in Naples, and I want to recruit some company employees through his connections. In times of war like this, a stable job should be used as a favor to win over Italians!"
"Haha... You kid, if you want me to help introduce a local snake, just say so. You even said you could help me, so I almost believed it." Jackson saw through Fang Lang's trick at a glance.
Fang Lang was not embarrassed and said to Jackson with a smile: "Uncle won't mind, right?"
"Okay, I'm going to have dinner with the mayor of Naples at noon today. Then I'll call Lieutenant Colonel Rolando Crespo to get to know you." Jackson said without mind.
During such a lunch, Fang Lang met the mayor of Naples and Lieutenant Colonel Rolando Crespo, the commander of the garrison in Naples, Italy. Not many specific things were said at the dinner table. When General Jackson introduced Fang Lang, he said that this was one of his juniors who was currently serving in the Naval Logistics Department of the Brazilian Expeditionary Force.
After dinner, Fang Lang visited the mayor of Naples and Lieutenant Colonel Rolando Crespo respectively. With the help of the two, he purchased a house not far from the Naples military port for US$40,000 as a global trade The office building of the Italian branch. With the personal participation of Mr. Mayor, the company registration was completed, and the office staff released employment information to various talent markets, agreeing to recruit personnel in the new office building tomorrow morning.
However, as for the person in charge of the company, Fang Lang must find someone he trusts. Fortunately, Fang Lang will not leave Naples immediately in the recent period, and there is still time to find him slowly.
Just after Fang Lang had dinner with the mayor and the lieutenant colonel, he was walking drunkenly on the way back to the military camp, feeling the cold wind in the winter in Naples, when a familiar voice stopped Fang Lang: "Fang, is that you? ?”
Fang Lang turned around and saw that it was the nurse Lilith who was taking care of him in the naval hospital. He didn't expect to meet this beautiful little girl on the streets of Italy after being discharged from the hospital. Fang Lang was also surprised.
"Wow! Dear Miss Lilith, am I dreaming? Or have I met an angel." Fang Lang joked like a rogue.
"Fang, stop teasing me. Why are you wandering drunkenly on the streets of Naples? Shouldn't you have returned to the front line to fight?" Lilith said with a blushing face full of concern.
In fact, Lilith's appearance is very in line with Fang Lang's aesthetics. She has fair and rosy skin, although she has a few small freckles like most white people. Her black hair, black eyes, and tall nose bridge are very much like the later movie "The Beauty of Sicily" The heroine of "Legend" is Monica Bellucci, but her personality is not the charming one in the movie. Instead, she has a girl-next-door temperament. This makes Fang Lang very excited. Unfortunately, she turns out to be a woman who can die in a war at any time. Xiaobing, I don't dare to expect to have any kind of interaction with such a girl.
"Haha... Lilith, if I didn't wander around drunkenly on the streets of Naples, how would I have the chance to meet my goddess! Dear Lilith, I wonder if you can reward me with drinking with me, a lost lamb looking for a goddess. Here's a cup of coffee!" Now that Fang Lang had confidence in his pocket, he didn't want to let go of the opportunity that came to his door.
"Ah! I'm afraid this won't work. It's already dark now. I have to go home, otherwise my father will come out to find me." Lilith doesn't hate Fang Lang, at least compared to the bohemian American soldiers, Fang Lang is The restrained and humble character of a Chinese soldier would be more likable. Although this guy would always tease her verbally, he would never do anything physical like other American soldiers.
"In this case, I don't know if I have the honor to send my goddess home!" Fang Lang didn't want to be too eager and cause the little girl's resentment.
"My home is in front of you!" The little girl's answer made Fang Lang stunned, and he looked in the direction of Lilith's finger. Unexpectedly, by such a coincidence, Lilith's home was not far behind the office building Fang Lang had just purchased.
Could this be fate? Fang Lang couldn't help but think in his heart. "Then we have to walk slowly. I want time to slow down."
Lilith covered her mouth and chuckled: "Okay! If you are not afraid of my father teaching you a lesson, we can walk back slowly."
"If my father-in-law wants to teach me a lesson, I will never resist. After all, I can't forgive a wild boy who appears from nowhere and wants to kidnap the little baby I have carefully cared for for more than ten years, can I?"
"Ah! What are you talking about! Who is your father-in-law! You...Fang, we haven't seen each other for only a month, why have you become so bad!" Lilith's face turned red under Fang Lang's attack.
Fang Lang took advantage of the wine and looked at the little girl's shy face under the dim street lights, and couldn't help but feel a little crazy!
Lilith didn't get a response from Fang Lang, and found that Fang Lang's face looked like a pig brother, looking at her dreamily, and a sweet feeling surged in her heart for no reason. His face turned even redder.
Just as the ambiguous atmosphere between the two continued to heat up, an inappropriate voice sounded in front of them: "Lilith, is this your friend? Do you want to call her home for a cup of coffee?"
Although the voice was very soft, it also brought the two of them back from the ambiguous atmosphere. Lilith was the first to react, startled, and quickly introduced with a guilty conscience: "Dad, why are you here? This is Fang Lang, my friend."
When Fang Lang heard that it was the father-in-law he was talking about just now, who was teasing someone else's daughter just now, his parents immediately appeared in front of him, he was so scared that he broke out in cold sweat, and he became sober after drinking. He quickly stood up straight, straightened his clothes and said, "Hello, uncle, my name is Fang Lang. Nice to meet you!"
Lilith's father was obviously a very well-educated gentleman. He extended his right hand very politely and said: "Hello, nice to meet you. I am Umaru Coburn, Lilith's father. We are all at the door. Come on, how about having a cup of coffee at home?"
Of course, Fang Lang was very happy about the invitation from Lilith's father and did not refuse. He agreed generously: "Of course, uncle, it is my honor."
Hearing that Fang Lang accepted his invitation calmly, Lilith's father was a little surprised. He thought that as soon as he opened his mouth, the young man he saw would be frightened and run away! Unexpectedly, he accepted the invitation generously.
This made him start to take a serious look at the young man in front of him. He would never have thought that the young man in front of him, who had experienced two lives and was probably older than him mentally, would run away just because his father found out about teasing a little girl!
