British 1986
Chapter 151 Fanning the flames
But this did not prevent the minister from presiding over today's meeting, especially when he first took the stage, he vaguely saw that there seemed to be an extra seat in the back row, and a little golden retriever was looking around there.
When I walked up to the front desk, I realized that the little golden retriever at the end was not the Earl of Carmarthen who was very popular in the news some time ago?
Why is this person here today?
He doesn't seem to be old enough to attend a meeting of the House of Lords?
But he looked like a naughty and bad student in a civilian school who was assigned to the last row by the teacher and sat alone.
The Minister of the House of Lords looked at this scene and felt a little amused. How many years has this scene not appeared in the House of Lords?
This brought some vitality to the somewhat lifeless and rigid House of Lords.
Nodding and smiling at Allen, the Lords Minister's expression returned to seriousness and he sat down.
Some curious people, seeing the gaze of the Lords Minister, turned to look at Allen.
Especially those on the second floor!
Allen glared hard at those who looked at him!
Ministers of the House of Lords just look at me, who do you think they are?
Have you never seen anyone who was a spectator?
Listening to the drowsy content of the meeting, Allen was only excited for a short while and was already a little impatient.
For some bills sent by the House of Commons, a group of nobles argued for a long time, but nothing came of it.
The House of Lords, which has not yet been reformed, cannot refuse or reject some proposals sent by the House of Commons. But what should the noble gentlemen do if they don't like these proposals?
Drag!
Anyway, there are two meetings every year, which keeps dragging you down.
This is also the reason why many outsiders think that many of Daying's proposals and proposals cannot be passed every time, or they have been delayed for several years without any results.
Trying to repair a broken road but failing to repair it for several years is an extension of this kind of thing.
It was not until the meeting lasted for more than an hour that Duke Angus felt that the surrounding environment was a little quieter. He thought for a moment and thought of what Allen taught him. He coughed dryly and raised his hand to indicate that he was ready to speak.
"Oh? Mr. Angus, do you have a proposal?"
"Um!"
Angus stood up with a cocky voice. Some people looked down on him in other places because his family was in ruins and he had no money or power.
But now this is the House of Lords, the place where status matters most. As long as the Queen or the Crown Prince is not present during the opening ceremony of Congress, the rest of the time.
Here, apart from a few old guys in the front row, his speech as a duke still carries a lot of weight!
Taking out the speech and smoothing out the wrinkles on it, Angus coughed dryly and said, "Some time ago, the princess attended a charity auction in Paris."
Under the expectant gazes of a room full of nobles, everyone wanted to hear what novelty the prodigal duke was going to say.
but.
I never expected that this Duke, who usually spends his time doing nothing but eating, drinking and having fun, would actually have time to care about the royal family!
And is.
Propose to increase funding for the royal family!
His reasons seem silly.
Princess Diana was already doing charity by selling jewelry and used clothes. Wouldn’t this be an embarrassment to the British people?
Is the royal family so poor that they need to do this?
The princess, a weak woman, is already so poor and still needs to do charity. Putting aside other issues, can't the financial department allocate more funds to the royal family?
This logic seems to be okay, but if you think about it for a moment, it is completely problematic!
Why does the princess still need to do charity when she is already so poor?
She sold some random jewelry and old clothes and sold them for millions of pounds!
Where did these jewelry come from?
Wasn't she the one who bought it?
Don't take the question out of context. Did you only see that she was poor at that moment?
The more Angus talked, the more relaxed he became. Anyway, it felt pretty good. He looked at a group of stunned nobles in the audience, and even the ministers of the House of Lords on the stage opened their mouths slightly, looking like they were shocked by him!
Lifting his chin slightly, Angus said proudly: "I'm done!"
The entire conference hall was silent.
Allen looked at the silent conference hall, this is not okay!
He came today to cause trouble!
Although it is said that he encouraged Angus to propose increasing expenses for the royal family,...
It's almost Christmas. Although there's still a month left, it's the end of the year and people are impetuous. As soon as this kind of proposal comes out, expect a fuss!
Even by the end of this year's parliament, the outcome may not be known.
The House of Lords is lifeless, is that okay?
this is not good!
Get excited, get noisy, even get louder!
He, Earl Allen, was devoted to the royal family, although he was the one who encouraged Angus to propose increasing funds for the royal family.
His starting point is good, right?
But because of what public opinion this proposal will bring to the royal family or Charles.
Then Allen doesn't care. Anyway, he is going to run away today when he gets back. I am going on vacation abroad.
You guys are noisy slowly!
How to cheer, how to cheer?
To put it bluntly, he is just a shill!
Allen looked at the quiet conference hall and gently raised his hand to lead the applause.
When many people heard the sudden applause coming from behind, they subconsciously agreed and clapped along.
But then he realized, what is there to applaud for Duke Angus’s nonsense proposal?
but.
The rhythm of the scene was messed up and the atmosphere was already heightened. I could only hold back my nausea and looked at the proud Duke Angus in front of me with different expressions and applauded him.
Listening to the applause from the audience.
The minister of the House of Lords twitched his lips, but because of his face, he could only clap along in embarrassment.
He was sitting at the top and could clearly see the place where the applause started. It seemed to be at the back, right?
He squinted and looked back.
Huh?
Where are the fucking people?
Where is the Earl of Carmarthen who was sitting there just now?
Are you here to cause trouble?
It's the end of the year. Wouldn't it be nice for everyone to happily noisy and wait until the end of Parliament and then go home for Christmas?
Why should we increase funding for the royal family? If we increase funding for the royal family, where should the embezzled money come from?
Which department should be appropriated?
As soon as this proposal comes out, expect a fight!
This time the quarrel was no longer a small quarrel, but a big quarrel!
The minister of the House of Lords stared resentfully at Angus, who was nodding to the left and right.
Damn it.
When did these two people get together?
Are you deliberately stirring up trouble?
Farke!
"Um, Your Excellency, come with me and go here."
"Um!"
There was a meeting inside, but after Allen took the lead in applauding, he took advantage of the chaos and escaped first!
He is not an official member, so why did he leave early?
You bite me?
I need to urinate urgently, can't I go to the toilet?
"Ahem, I'm suddenly a little hungry. I don't want to go back. Take me to the parking lot. I'll go back first."
After coming out of the toilet, Allen made up a random reason.
"Huh?" The waiter was a little confused when he heard this request.
After working as a waiter for so many years, he had seen all kinds of nobles in the House of Lords, but this was the first time he saw one who was hungry during a meeting.
But right now, Mr. Allen is hungry and he can't make the decision.
He could only lower his head and lead Allen to the parking lot again.
Finally getting into his car, Allen patted the driver's seat and said, "Let's go! Go to the airport, go to the airport!"
The target is Tu'ao, see you when you leave London!
I'm going on vacation first. Your Highness, I can only help you get here.
I have already applied for the funding on my own initiative. As for whether Congress will grant it or not, that is none of his business!
Australia, New South Wales, a suburb of Sydney.
A villa with a huge area.
Allen was wearing a set of thin pajamas, lying on a recliner, holding a newspaper in his hand.
Last Friday’s meeting of the House of Lords became famous because of the Duke of Angus’s proposal!
There was a lot of discussion in the newspapers.
certainly
The Duke of Angus' proposal was met with mixed reviews.
Some people who support the princess are of course on the side of the royal family and cheering for Duke Angus.
But a larger part of the people sneered at the Duke of Angus's proposal.
You're taking taxpayers' money and not using it as money!
In the past few days, Allen's phone has been turned off and he has hid here in Tu'ao, enjoying the warmth of the southern hemisphere.
He will go on a trip in a few days. He has suddenly arrived in Australia from the cold northern hemisphere. He has to adapt to the temperature first, and then go to have a meal with the governor of Tu'ao, and finally go on a trip.
But now looking at the photo of the Duke of Angus being interviewed in the newspaper.
Doesn’t this guy like to show off?
The stage is given to you, the rest is all up to you, my good uncle - Angus!
"Master, what day do you think the banquet with the governor is scheduled for?"
After taking the schedule, Allen took out a small meatball from a small bucket with a lid next to the lounge chair and threw it towards the balcony. A white shadow next to him ran away without making any sound. out.
"Well, it's up to you. I'll have a good rest for a few days. Then I'll rent a helicopter and I'll go hunting."
Hu Te also came here for this vacation, and there was basically no one left at home.
Thinking of what happened in the past few days, Hu Te gritted his teeth and said: "Young Master, we won't answer the phone these days, just in case there is a call from His Highness."
"Needless to say! I'm on vacation. Where can I find a mobile phone? There is no signal in the wild. Let's wait until we get back!"
"Fine."
Glancing at the newspaper, even if Hu Te didn't understand, he could still imagine how His Highness would feel after seeing Angus's proposal!
Happy?
No no no.
His Highness will most likely be furious!
There’s no guarantee this Christmas will be a good one!
The sound of propellers muffled the voices.
Allen wore earmuffs and patted the docking representative sent by Sony next to him. It was Tanaka Kubo who had the most contact with him at that time!
"Do you want to compare your marksmanship with me?"
"What? What did you say, Your Excellency?"
The hem of Tanaka Kubo's suit was blown around, the helicopter cockpit door was open, and he and Allen had safety measures tied around their waists. Although they were fine, the airflow was strong and the voices could not be heard clearly, not to mention
Tanaka Kubo is a little afraid of heights!
He heard the voice in the headset, which was somewhat unclear.
Allen curled his lips, raised the gun in his hand, and aimed at a group of kangaroos running on the plain below!
"boom!"
Missed.
Allen embarrassedly took two more shots before hitting another kangaroo.
"Your Excellency is a good marksman!"
Tanaka Kubo poked his head, held the handle tightly with both hands, and did not forget to flatter him.
The earl invited them to come to Australia to discuss the company's new plans for next year.
Unexpectedly, when we got here, the meeting hadn't started yet, but we took him hunting first.
"Lower it!"
It flew a bit high, and the helicopter vibrated, making aiming very inconvenient.
What is the most enjoyable feeling about hunting?
It’s the thrill of killing with one shot!
Instead of feeling like you can’t hit a single kangaroo hair with several shots!
Although the kangaroo is known as one of the symbols of Australia, it seems to be their national treasure.
But kangaroos are not protected animals. Not only are they not protected, they can even be hunted. The more you kill, the better!
This thing has no natural enemies here now. Although its reproductive ability is so-so, they grow strong and often break into private houses. Sometimes they even attack private cars on the highway.
In the past, Tu’ao and Macao officials even issued hunting and killing orders.
but.
Tu'ao is so big that there is enough space for these kangaroos to live, and there is no way to kill them all!
Later, this thing was regarded as a "pest" just like the local rabbits!
The herdsmen and the people hate it very much.
and
Kangaroo meat is not delicious, and kangaroo skin is not of high quality. Even if you want to sell it for takeout, you will only be able to trick people and regions who don’t understand.
It is an animal with no economic value.
Allen set up his rifle and shot while flying. Kubo Tanaka handed him the magazine, and he could shoot any kangaroo he wanted.
This feeling of chasing and hunting while flying in the sky is like having a God's perspective, which is much more exciting than hunting at home before!
The shot was always inaccurate, and it would be unsafe to fly lower. Allen's temper got worse. Under Tanaka Kubo's horrified eyes, he adjusted the firing mode, looked down and started playing his favorite strafing shot.
Don't worry whether you can hit them or not, these kangaroos can't escape anyway!
No matter how fast they jump, can they still beat a helicopter?
These kangaroos were beaten to death, no one would even pick them up, and even the small carnivorous animals would not touch them, they would just slowly rot on the ground.
"Did you see it? These kangaroos look very strong. Ordinary people can't afford to mess with them, but even if they are hit by a bullet, they will die!"
Allen glanced at Tanaka Kubo and spoke slowly while changing his ammunition.
"Si Guoyi! Your marksmanship is better! Hahaha."
Tanaka Kubo didn't know if he understood what Allen said. Anyway, as long as Allen spoke, he would praise him!
After going out for a hunting trip, the helicopter just parked on the helipad. Allen took off the protective measures and jumped out.
Tanaka Kubo, who climbed down slowly behind him, felt a little weak.
I just caught up with Allen and was ready to praise him some more.
"Take it!"
Putting the empty rifle into Tanaka Kubo's arms, Allen took the ice-cold soda water handed by the servant.
"Let's have fun here for a few days, and then we'll have a meeting again, do you understand?"
Although it is a partner, Sony is restricted by the terms and has no management rights.
The employees they sent to Great Britain could only do menial tasks such as serving tea and water, cleaning, or running errands at Earl Pictures.
For the rest, it still depends on how the Excellency in front of me arranges it.
Now when it comes to meetings, they have to send someone.
The script was submitted some time ago, but Allen's reply greatly increased the confidence of the people at Sony!
His Excellency the Earl was very optimistic about their script and gave some small suggestions!
