The polite man in front of him looked very qualified, and Hepburn's mother could see the aura of a superior person in him.

This is something she can only feel as a noble, having often come into contact with these superiors.

The other party's statement showed that he sincerely wanted to help his daughter.

that's enough.

"Mr. Fang, you are right. Hepburn should really focus on her studies now.

I am deeply grateful that you were able to support Hepburn through her education. "

Hepburn's mother was very free and easy, and she accepted Fang Lang's offer to support her daughter's studies very calmly.

This made the large amount of rhetoric prepared by Fang Lang useless.

Hepburn also looked at her mother in surprise, wondering how her mother, who had always been very independent, could accept Fang Lang's investment so easily.

And the very direct expression is funding.

There is a big difference between funding and investing. Investors want to see a return.

Funding is indeed direct financial help, and whether or not to repay it depends on the recipient's wishes.

But funding will obviously put yourself in a very low position.

Fang Lang understood what Hepburn's mother meant very well. The investment Fang Lang mentioned was actually to take care of Hepburn's self-esteem.

Although he knew what Hepburn's achievements would be in the future.

Nor was he really looking to get a return on his investment in Hepburn.

Hepburn's mother had no way of predicting Hepburn's future, so she knew very well that the investment Fang Lang mentioned was actually funding.

So she spoke out very directly, putting herself in a vulnerable position of being funded.

This unpretentious approach made Fang Lang feel relieved.

"Okay, here are ten pounds. From now on, I will send ten pounds to you every month.

You can add more nutrition to Hepburn, but you must not faint from malnutrition again.

If you continue like this, your and Hepburn's bodies will really break down. "

Feeling Fang Lang's sincere concern, both Hepburn and her daughter were very moved.

When we returned to Reinhardt's house, Reinhardt had already gone home.

Obviously, for such a small matter as finding a house, we, Mr. Reinhardt, do not need to do it ourselves.

"Haha... let's see who is back. Isn't this our Mr. Alexandre Dumas?"

Reinhardt teased Fang Lang who came back.

"It seems that our Reinhardt is very envious! Do you need me to impart some experience to you?"

When there was no woman around, Fang Lang wouldn't care about Reinhardt's teasing.

"Tch! I'm having sex with the girls, but you still don't know how to play in the mud in that corner!"

"Really? How come I heard that Mr. Reinhardt is very strictly controlled by his fiancée?"

"Where did this rumor come from? I..."

Seeing Reinhardt blushing and trying to defend himself, Fang Lang smiled, waved his hand and said:

"Okay! I know they are all rumors. Have you found the house I asked you to help find?"

Reinhardt was relieved that Fang Lang no longer teased him, but instead asked about the house.

"It's not that easy. Many places in London have been destroyed in the bombing.

It is difficult to find suitable accommodation near the Mary Lambert Ballet School.

If you don't mind, I know that a nobleman wants to sell a house in Mayer, but it is larger.

I don't know if you are interested. "

"Mayer, is this near you?"

"Yes, many British nobles live here, and the environment here is very good.

If you buy a house here, you will have your own house when you come to London again, right? "

Fang Lang remembered that when he was in New York, he always stayed in hotels, which was indeed a lot of inconvenience.

Now I am staying at Reinhardt's house in London. I have a lot of followers and have a lot of official business to deal with, so it is really not suitable.

"Come on, let's go take a look!"

The two walked through a block and came to the house Reinhardt said was a four-story building along the street. There were obvious Baroque-style sculptures on the exterior walls, which made it look very luxurious.

Across the street is a large park. It is already evening. Looking across the park, you can see the sunset slowly setting on the horizon.

Fang Lang remembered that London in later generations was one of the cities with the highest housing prices in the world.

If you buy a property here now, you might be able to make a lot of money.

"Can I go in and see what's going on inside?"

"That's not possible now. The owner is in Australia and the keys are kept at the asset management company and will not be delivered until tomorrow.

But I have been to this house. Each floor has four bedrooms and two living rooms, and the space is very large.

There are a total of sixteen rooms in the whole building.

It should be sufficient as your accommodation in London. "

"Are the property rights of the house clear? There won't be any trouble!"

"Don't worry! The owner is a lord. If he didn't want to settle in Australia, he wouldn't think of selling this house."

"Okay, since you, Reinhardt, think it's a good house, you don't need to look at it. Let's go through the formalities tomorrow!"

The next day, Fang Lang was preparing to go through the transfer procedures for his first property with Reinhardt.

Rinehart's mother, Mrs. Henderson, suddenly arrives in London.

Because Fang Lang and Mrs. Henderson cooperated to invest in British shipyards, the two were no strangers.

"Fang, I heard that you bought Aston Martin? It must be the idea of ​​this bastard Reinhardt!"

Mrs. Henderson is obviously aware of Reinhardt’s obsession with Aston Martin.

As soon as I heard that Fang Lang had bought Aston Martin, I immediately knew the reason.

Therefore, the purpose of coming to London this time may also be for this matter.

"Haha... Mrs. Henderson, it was indeed Reinhardt who took me to visit this factory.

I personally feel pretty good.

My purpose of coming to Europe this time was originally to look for some suitable investment projects.

So, don't worry about it. "

Fang Lang could feel that Mrs. Henderson was obviously worried that Fang Lang had been misled by Reinhardt without knowing it.

He wanted to expose Reinhardt's purpose so that Fang Lang would not discover the problem himself after the fact.

Blame Reinhardt.

The three of them were sitting on the sofa in the living room chatting, of course not behind Reinhardt's back.

Hearing that his mother suspected that he had deceived his friend, he was very dissatisfied.

whispered:

“Mom, just because you think you can’t save Aston Martin, doesn’t mean Fang can’t save it either.

He has changed the original business philosophy of Aston Martin and will definitely give Aston Martin a new lease of life. "

Mrs. Henderson was obviously surprised after hearing what her son said.

As the hostess of the Henderson family, and her husband works in the Navy, many tasks in the family business are actually decided by Mrs. Henderson.

When Reinhardt wanted to acquire Aston Martin, Mrs. Henderson vetoed it.

After all, in his opinion, the Aston Martin car brand has a small market, but the investment is not small. It is completely worth the loss and has no investment value.

Unexpectedly, his son would tell him today that Fang Lang had changed Aston Martin's business thinking, which made him very curious.

He saw Mrs. Henderson looking at him questioningly.

Fang Lang did not hide anything, and briefly explained his future plans for Aston Martin and his views on the future of the automobile industry to Mrs. Henderson.

After hearing Fang Lang's explanation, Mrs. Henderson fell into deep thought.

"Fang, you are so optimistic about the future of cars, but what about airplanes?"

Fang Lang was startled by this question, airplane? That was a high-end gadget, and I didn't have the strength to participate in the aircraft market.

Wait, that’s not right! It seems that today’s airplanes are not as advanced as they were later!

The manufacturing of piston engines is not much different from that of cars!

Nowadays, many aircraft manufacturing companies seem to have started by producing cars!

I have brought the difficulty of manufacturing advanced aircraft of later generations into the current era!

The manufacturing technology of today's piston aircraft seems to be similar to that of agricultural aircraft in later generations!

Brazil is dominated by large farmers. Can we use the car engine production line to produce aircraft engines?

Then make some simple agricultural airplanes to sell for money!

In later generations, weren't Brazil's Tucano fighter planes just propeller planes?

Of course, the Tucano's engine is a turboprop engine, not a piston engine. This guy has filled many gaps in the field of modern air force combat.

This aircraft was originally developed as a training aircraft, so can I make some preparations in advance?

If you have the ability to manufacture equipment for the navy, army and air force, then your voice in the Brazilian army will become very important in the future!

As for whether some people want to nationalize their own companies, it depends on their taste and whether it is good enough.

Since Mrs. Henderson asked her about her views on airplanes, could she find out more about their family's airplane manufacturing business?

"Aircrafts are of course the most promising industry. World War II has proven the importance of air supremacy. An army without an air force can only become a living target."

"By the way, you are a soldier, what do you think the future development direction of the Air Force will be!"

Fang Lang was a little surprised by the question Mrs. Henderson asked. Is this a test of his own?

Fang Lang was very clear about the future development direction of the Air Force, but he didn't want to tell everything he knew.

Regardless of whether others believe it or not, if I tell you the development direction of the Air Force and it comes true, I won’t be treated as if I’m the one to blame!

After thinking for a while he said:

"The future of aircraft is definitely in jet aircraft! There is no doubt about this."

After hearing Fang Lang's words, Mrs. Henderson became somewhat silent.

Fang Lang and Reinhardt looked at each other and then looked at Mrs. Henderson. It took a while for Mrs. Henderson to react and said slightly apologetically:

"Sorry, I got distracted. Why does Fang think jets are the future?

Our company's engineers told me that jet engines are very unreliable and consume too much fuel, so they are simply not suitable for transoceanic flights! "

It seems that this is a fan of propeller aircraft!

Jet aircraft engines are unreliable because they have just appeared!

The technology is definitely not mature yet.

Just because of this, it would be childish to think that jet aircraft have no future.

Britain can be regarded as an aviation power in later generations!

There’s no reason why you can’t see through this!

"Um...Mrs. Henderson, do you know the name of the family's aircraft company?

What types of aircraft are currently being manufactured mainly? "
