"Don't you think so?"
"We invested money in building the arsenal in Longyan City. Shouldn't we get the rewards?"
"There is also the Panama Canal. Everyone knows what a canal connecting the Atlantic and Pacific means. We in Britain are now Longyan's ally. I think it is very reasonable to get such a thing."
"You want to object?"
The military headquarters fell silent. They did not agree with Clintsy's words, but they had no reason to refuse.
Clintsy stood up slowly, and the chair moved back smoothly, making a friction sound, stimulating everyone's nerves.
Clintsy adjusted his slightly wrinkled collar until he was satisfied, and he said calmly: "This is a task, not a suggestion, nor a matter worthy of discussion."
"Okay, that's it, tell George to leave quickly, our battlefield can't wait too long."
"After all, every soldier who dies now is a member of your military department."
Clancy turned and left in a very good mood.
But in this room, other people fell into silence.
They were the ones who recommended George to become a member of Parliament in the first place, hoping to win George into their camp.
George is theirs, so they want to let George continue to perform meritorious service and return to the parliament.
"Maybe we can only give up on him..."
The military personnel said after a long silence.
This is also an unavoidable choice. It is difficult to complete just one task proposed by Clancy, let alone three.
And if George brought it up, he would probably have Long Yan kill him and worsen the relationship with Britain.
No matter how you look at this game, it is a certain death situation.
But now that Clancy has given an order for George to go, he has to go and has no choice.
After thinking of this, everyone nodded, acquiescing to this sentence.
Give up George!
Give up on the congressmen they personally won over.
…
At this time, George was convening a banquet in Mount Vernon.
This is the etiquette and interaction between nobles.
People with high incomes, status and status in Fogilis hold banquets regularly to consolidate their relationships.
Or it may be to find a good home for those who lack wives or husbands.
Many things will be resolved at such a banquet.
George hadn't had a decent party since he married Martha.
On the contrary, I received many invitations.
But during that time, George happened to be promoted to Congress and could attend the banquet, and Martha did not attend.
This time, they took the initiative to hold a banquet just to connect with old friends.
George and Martha invited people they knew well this time, so there was no need for Sister-in-law Dani to say more.
Natasha arrives with Count William.
"Oh, look who this is!" George and Earl William embraced warmly.
"George, it seems that you have recovered well during this period. How about your life as a member of Parliament? Is it as wonderful as you imagined?"
George smiled and shook his head: "Being a parliamentarian is a boring and boring life."
"At least for me it is."
Earl William nodded: "Well, it can be seen that you are already disgusted with this job, but now that you have Martha, a knife-edge war that licks blood is no longer suitable for you."
"It's that bastard Green. When he comes back, I will never let him go on the battlefield again!"
Natasha next to Earl William glanced at him and said angrily: "Greene is fighting for us."
He looked at his niece Natasha and said lovingly: "Natasha, have you forgotten to worry about his life?"
"Please forgive my selfishness. After all, I don't want to see you and worry about him all the time."
"When George comes back, you must ask him to marry Natasha as soon as possible. She can't wait any longer."
Natasha stamped her feet and said shyly: "Uncle!"
George smiled. He understood what Earl William meant, which was that he wanted Green to stay and not continue to do this kind of life of licking blood from the edge of a knife.
After all, this kind of life is too worrying for people like them.
George said: "Don't worry, I think this time when he comes back, he will marry Natasha and be stable for a long time."
I hope...he added silently in his heart.
Earl William smiled and said: "That's best."
George stepped out of the way and made an invitation gesture: "But before that, I would like to invite you two to be normal. The chef from Longyan has carefully prepared dishes. This time he has brought something fresh."
When Natasha heard that it was Long Yan's chef, Natasha's eyes lit up and her throat squirmed. She asked, "Is there a rule of thumb?"
George nodded: "Of course there is. This time there is also a dish called Nine-turn Large Intestine. Its preparation is too cumbersome and the ingredients themselves are common, but under this chef's preparation, the taste is... A unique one, very different.”
Their eyes lit up and they said, "I can't wait to taste the taste of this dish."
George nodded slightly.
Two people walked in.
After Earl William, came Earl Lane and Miss Qin.
Jean often invited George and Martha to her place for parties, but George always found various reasons to refuse.
But what Qin didn't expect today was that George would actually invite her to this banquet.
But seeing Martha and George standing closely together, even the shadows reflected in the light overlapped.
The two people look like one person.
Seeing such a scene, Qin's expression was slightly startled. She forced a smile and said hello to George: "Hi, George, nice to meet you."
She simply ignored Martha next to George.
Earl Lane, who came with her, frowned. George was already married, and Qin had not given up her pursuit yet. This made him, a father, a little angry at George.
But based on rational analysis, after meeting Qin, George directly expressed that his heart already belonged to someone else.
Alas... I can all blame my daughter's wishful thinking for everything.
Seeing that she was being ignored, Martha took the lead and used Qin's little hand to warmly say, "Welcome, Miss Qin. I hope you enjoy today's dance."
"This is also the first party that George and I have held in a long time after we got married."
"The two of us have spent a lot of time and energy on this gathering."
Qin looked at Martha, her face was stunned, and then she squeezed out a smile on her stiff face, and then quickly shook off Martha's hand.
"Thank you for your welcome."
Seeing the loving relationship between George and Martha, Qin felt that her heart felt very uncomfortable.
She desperately wanted to escape.
"I'll go in first." Before finishing these words, Qin walked in alone.
George looked at Earl Lane awkwardly.
Earl Lane originally had no complaints against George, but seeing his daughter so sad because of George, he snorted coldly and walked in.
