Chapter 1098 Mortals

At 10:21, in the lobby of Hotel No. 13 of the Phoebes Manor Hotel, dark gray and khaki lion-patterned carpets covered the spacious hall. Gene sat on the right side of the entrance, chatting with some women.

Jewell's eyes widened in displeasure, and Lu Xi next to him grabbed Jewell's arm.

"I'm really sorry, I'm very sorry, Master Jewell, I've already contacted the technical staff to deal with it, there is a small problem with the facilities in rooms 1386 and 1387 you booked, please wait a little longer and we will It's done."

"Don't you understand what I'm saying? Give us two rooms."

At this time, many people in the hall felt very surprised. After all, two section chiefs could be seen, and most of the women's eyes were always on Jean, while some men were talking about it. After all, Jewell His famous name is the talk of the streets and alleys after dinner in the city.

"I'm really sorry, Master Jewell, many of today's rooms are booked, please calm down!"

The hotel manager led a group of foremen, and some waiters had already brought out some excellent pastries, hoping that Jewell and the others would wait for a while.

"Okay, okay, understand the difficulties of others."

Jewell just wanted to go to sleep in the room at this time. After all, he didn't have enough sleep, so he was very irritable and very angry. Luxi dragged Jewell to sit next to Jean's sofa area, and immediately some waiters brought flowers The pastry, and the tea were put over, and stood aside respectfully.

The manager nodded and stood aside, looking at the door from time to time, Jewell seemed to realize something, he hated others for treating him as an idiot, Lu Xi also seemed to understand, the manager said that the facilities in the room were bad It's just an excuse, but it's actually to hold them back and wait for someone to come over.

Lu Xi suppressed Jewell as much as possible, and tightly grabbed his arm, while Ran Zai was already lying on the other side of the sofa and fell asleep.

"How about this? Manager, I'll open two more rooms. If there are spare rooms, book two for us."

Gene stood up and said with a smile, the manager was completely stunned at this moment, he looked at Gene and Jewell with some fear, at this time Locke finally walked in in a black suit from a distance.

"Isn't this Lord Jean and Jewell?"

Locke walked in with a smiling face, and immediately leaned over. Jewell stood up, and he couldn't bear it anymore.

"What I hate the most is being treated as a fool. If the facility is really broken, then take me to have a look. I have the repair technology for light and shadow products. Compared with your technicians, let me Go and fix it for you."

Gene smiled and nodded with the women beside him, and walked over.

"Mr. Locke, we just want to take a vacation today, so I won't bother you."

Locke immediately moved over with a smile.

"It's better to meet by chance than to choose a date, otherwise, how about a meal, after all, the two of you come here, just have a light meal together."

Jewell looked at the manager angrily, and Gene lit a cigarette with his head up and smiling.

"Eating is free. After all, the newlyweds need time to be alone, and I don't want anyone to bother them."

Locke hummed, and winked at the manager, who immediately smiled and told Jewell that it had been repaired, and would take them up immediately.

"I'll accompany you for dinner, Mr. Locke, and that kid over there."

Locke looked suspiciously at Ran Zai who was sleeping on the sofa. He thought his face was familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it for a while.

"this way please."

Locke said that Gene nodded, lifted the uniform on the sofa, raised one hand, and light blue particles of light floated over, Ran Zai was slowly dragged up, and then Gene pulled With his back collar, Ran Zai was dragged away like a cargo.

"What happened?"

Along with bursts of laughter, Ran Zai woke up with a start, immediately got up and kicked him furiously, and Gene dodged out of the way deftly.

"Who is this?"

Locke looked at the playfulness of the two children like children, and felt a little weird.

"Grandson of the wise man!"

Locke's eyes tightened, and he nodded awkwardly. He didn't expect to hear the name again, although he had already heard that he was released from prison, received an amnesty, and became a member of Section 13.

But at this moment, Locke's perennial anger surged from the bottom of his heart in an instant.

"You're very kind to that kind of guy, Mr. Jean."

"Times have changed."

Soon Locke took Gene through a garden at the entrance of the hotel, and crossed a small bridge. Opposite was a wooden octagonal five-story building. At this time, many people were busy working, and there were drunk wind In the words of Huayue, Locke notified the chefs to come here early in the morning, and he also explained that this place is not open during lunch today.

In a chic and antique small room with a screen on the third floor, Gene and Locke sat down.

"Don't look at my old man, it's not me who tricked you, but my grandpa. If you want to hate it, you should hate my grandpa."

As soon as he sat down, Locke felt bad, especially since the guy next to him was the grandson of his enemy, he felt a little dizzy.

"Blood pressure has risen."

Locke stood at the latticed window, looked at the calm lake below, and sighed.

"If we hadn't been tricked by a wise man back then, our family wouldn't have fallen to this point."

Jin smiled, and Ran Zai sighed.

He is very clear about his grandfather and the Phoebes family. As one of the eight major families that founded the city, Phoebes had the highest status in the city back then, and their company was engaged in automobile manufacturing.

At that time, the wise man led the way and helped the Phoebes family acquire many small car companies. The Phoebes family was also researching aerodynamic vehicles instead of electric vehicles. Although the research was successful, the cars still produced a lot of energy. Heat energy, which causes the temperature of the air to rise.

This is also an important reason why Congress banned cars as ground transportation. Once the city's ecological circle is destroyed, people will inevitably face the problem of survival.

At the beginning of the subway's operation, the low toll fees and convenient and fast transit time made Phoebus's family feel unprecedented pressure, and the sales of cars began to drop like a flood.

But at that time, the wise man convinced Locke that it is impossible for cars to be banned. It is this season that a large number of car companies have taken over the entire market in one fell swoop. When it is time to buy, Congress will not do anything to itself, so under the bridge of the wise, the Phoebes family bought a large number of car companies at a low price.

In fact, this is just a ploy by the wise men to expand their power. The wise men have long known that Congress is bound to ban cars, and the Phoebes family spent a lot of money to acquire all the car companies.

In the end, cars were really banned, and a large number of cars turned into scrap iron, which could only be dismantled into raw materials and sold at a low price. After looting everything, and using more money to stabilize his position as a criminal emperor, he officially began to challenge Congress.

In one night, the Phoebes family only had their own territory left. At that time, Locke was so angry that he vomited blood. He got up from the bed after a long illness. He did something like getting his head kicked by a donkey.

Ran Zai naturally knew why his grandfather was able to convince Locke that cars would not be banned, because his grandfather controlled a large number of members of the administrative department and councilors, and his power was very powerful. At that time, he still remembered that his grandfather brought three section chiefs with him Tamai was one of those who went to see Locke.

In the end, everyone divided up the huge property of the Phoebes family, and the Phoebes family has been in a slump since then. In the end, relying on a little money, they sold a lot of properties and continued to build this resort hotel manor. Keep everything in the family, so that the family will not be completely lost.

At that time, the Angus family began to rise again. Locke left everything and begged the Angus family to finally get another part of the money to build the manor. Knowing that the secretaries were coming over last night, Locke did not go to attend the The dinner at Gus's house has been in preparation, because Locke thinks this is his chance to make a comeback.

"Your grandpa is really a cold-blooded and cruel guy. He often turns his face and denies anyone. I was really naive back then."

Ran Zai sighed and walked over slowly.

"I think it's better for you, Uncle Locke, to take care of your life. After all, your body is getting worse day by day. The two ineffective sons in your family, as well as the two grandsons and one granddaughter who can't stretch at all, are capital like this. You can't beat the current merchants."

Locke smiled helplessly.

"Mr. Jean, when will the plan for the barrier area start?"

Locke didn't intend to continue talking about other things, but asked directly.

"Are you going to go back to your old business?"

"Cars are necessary. Once the plan is launched, including the construction of abandoned factories, car transportation is necessary. Although it can be done by relying on the subway, short-distance transportation cannot be carried by mutants every day, and Some facilities and bases also need to be built temporarily outside the barrier area."

Ran Zai immediately understood what Locke meant. The reason why he desperately created such a big welcome ceremony to win the favor of the three secretaries was because he wanted to cooperate with the secretaries. Now seeing Gene move again The crooked brains of the agricultural base in the barrier area came.

"The time is for young people, Mr. Locke, if you are still young, you can go to those three girls and have a good talk, they are not fairies who don't like oil and salt, they are just mortals, the little girl in our department Girl, you can go to her in person when you have time, and I will talk about it here."

Locke turned around excitedly and bowed to Gene.

"Thank you so much, Mr. Jean!"

The brilliance returned to Locke's eyes. This is his opportunity and he must seize it.

"Sure enough, he is a qualified businessman!"

Ran Zai seems to understand that now cars are produced by 10 departments and are only useful in security stations and farms, but it seems that Locke's previous car technology has been preserved, and he has not given up research and lost some core products .

"Young man, it's like this in business. It's the nature of a businessman to bite on any opportunity, isn't it! If you have time, please send me a message for your grandpa. One day I must beat him up, so that I Only then can you relieve your anger!"
