British 1986
Chapter 365 I object!
The deputy speaker had a headache when he saw Allen.
Although this man doesn't come to Congress often, he always causes trouble every time he comes. He was dressed so formally today and spoke so actively. You can tell from the first glance that he is going to cause trouble!
Coupled with the latest gossip news reported in the newspapers in the past two days, it seemed to be vaguely related to this person. The deputy speaker had a sullen face and reluctantly said: "Earl of Carmarthen, please speak."
To object to a plan, you have to give convincing reasons and state the reasons. You cannot object blindly, so.
Since you object, you must explain the reasons for your objection.
"I have nothing to say. Her Majesty the Queen has not held any decent celebrations in recent years, whether it is birthdays or various anniversaries. I went to Clarence House some time ago and found out that the royal family does not even have to pay for the maintenance of the palace. It’s not enough anymore. The external economic environment is so bad now. Building a new aircraft carrier is a big expense. With these expenses, it is better to use them to increase the royal family’s funds and hold celebrations, so I object!”
The Queen is frugal on food and clothing, the royal palace lacks funds for repairs, and the external economic environment is poor. Allen gave three reasons for objections and a "proper" way to use it.
As soon as Allen finished speaking, a voice rebutted Allen from the distance.
"It is because of the poor external economic environment that we need to plan to build an aircraft carrier. How many supporting industries and workers are needed to build an aircraft carrier? How many jobs can this add? How much economic growth can it stimulate? In addition, with the new aircraft carrier , This will help us increase our regional influence in certain areas in the future. A few years ago, some countries in the Far East saw that we were weak and even dared to snatch our colonies."
"???"
What old dog said this?
When Allen heard this, there was no problem in the first half, but in the second half he became a little unhappy. You are so shameless. You are giving back your colony. Don't you know where that place came from?
"Fuck you!"
Allen cursed subconsciously.
He could see clearly that the person speaking was on his left, and they were about ten meters apart. Judging from the position of the seat, the person speaking was not much higher in rank.
When facing people of lower status than himself, Allen always strikes hard.
"Are you saying that building His Majesty's house and holding celebrations won't create more jobs? Holding celebrations can't increase people's self-confidence? Or do you think the royal family doesn't deserve to increase funding? To boost employment, you have to build an aircraft carrier? Holding celebrations can also boost employment. Regarding the economy, the United States just finished fighting Iraq last year. Now you are rushing to build aircraft carriers and want to start a war? Our strength was severely damaged in the war to compete for the Falklands a few years ago. Has it recovered now? Do the people want us to increase our armaments? Is there this? Money can’t be used for anything else?”
The congressman who was scolded by Allen in public blushed the color of pig liver after hearing Allen's vulgar words. He wanted to continue to refute, but considering his reputation, he didn't dare. He was really afraid. If this guy gets angry, will he be beaten right here in public?
The Hill family has a criminal record!
Faced with such a well-known reckless man, there is no need to argue with him, let alone make enemies with him. If you are targeted by such a person, the trouble will be lingering. Besides, this queen has been brought up several times, and if you continue to argue, It's definitely not good for you.
The councilman thought for a while, lowered his head and said in a low voice: "Then I, I agree with Earl Carmarthen's opinion, and I also object."
Since he didn't want to provoke Allen, he accepted the offer decisively, then turned around and started to support him.
No enmity?
The nobles were shameless. Since they didn't want to make enemies, they would just give in to the end and express their opinions directly that they were convinced and started to oppose together with Allen.
The deputy speaker frowned at this scene, and glanced at Allen again. This man had a serious face, and there was some truth in what he said.
Allen himself is a minister of the royal family. In addition, he made an anti-war movie some time ago. As a peace-loving anti-war person, he can originally oppose the increase in armaments. Due to emotions and reasons, he opposed such a plan. All reasonable.
The deputy speaker is not supported by anyone. He is only responsible for presiding over the meeting.
However, some of the congressmen present did not care at all about whether to build an aircraft carrier or not. Some, like Allen, came to the meeting just to be gilded and came for the purpose of having fun. They just followed the crowd.
Even if some people have objections, after what Allen said, if they stand up to refute again, it will appear as if they are hostile to the Queen, and no one will dare.
After Allen made a fuss with these few words, the whole audience burst into whispers.
Allen saw the Duke of Kent in front of him looking back at him cheerfully and winking at him.
Except for boss Cha, no one in the royal family cares much about the military.
Anyway, it is already rotten now. If the aircraft carrier is built earlier and later, the effect will be the same.
Just like Allen said, since the external economic environment is not good, then don't create it now. It would be a good idea to use the money to distribute it to the royal family to increase the annual pocket money.
Now that he is doing this, if he meets someone who understands, he will know what to do.
This plan to build additional aircraft carriers will definitely pass sooner or later.
But no matter how you go about it, the doorway here is deep. Some congressmen don't care about these things, and some congressmen do.
Such as Allen.
Want to build an aircraft carrier?
Then I have to pick up a handful.
For example, he needs to use certain steel products. He also has a tinplate factory at home. There are also steel factories in Australia. Can these factories be allocated a batch of orders?
Let’s not say how much, you have to plan it. If there is no profit sharing, what new aircraft carrier will you build?
A good project is only one that benefits everyone.
Do you want to play without me, Mr. Allen?
Then I will oppose you!
He kept opposing it until someone bribed him with benefits, and then Allen would agree. Anyway, he was in no hurry and just took his time.
The atmosphere in the conference hall became a little tense for a few minutes. Seeing that no one continued to stand up and speak, the deputy speaker decided to shelve this proposal for now. Anyway, this kind of proposal cannot be made without a few years of wrangling.
Let’s do this for today.
"Alan."
During the lunch break, Duke Angus followed Allen quietly, and the two of them walked towards the parking lot.
We are all old guys, what about the afternoon meeting?
Who is still here this afternoon?
"What's wrong?"
Allen is holding the hem of his robe with his right hand. The special clothing for members of parliament looks bright red, but the style of the clothes is a bit like a coat. It doesn't feel like it when sitting, but it is a bit troublesome when walking. You need to hold some of the hem of the clothes with your hands. It feels like walking in a square way.
"You..." Angus sighed. His political awareness was not very high and he often came to the Parliament. He also listened to Alan's suggestion and showed up more often to make up for the lack of influence he lacked in Britain these years. How awesome he has become, but if he encounters trouble in the future, others will know that he is such a powerful figure and dare not touch him easily.
Therefore, Angus felt a little unsure that Allen dared to oppose the review plan submitted by the House of Commons so openly, but he didn't know how to persuade him, so he thought about it and said with a smile: "How about... go. Let’s sit down over there and we can chat?”
"I'm not going, I'm going back to rest."
Alan glanced at Angus slightly. A big fat man has the advantage of being a big fat man. Duke Angus's round beer belly can fill up the MP's robe very well, and it will not affect his walking.
Hmm. This kind of loose clothing is really suitable for fatter figures.
Seeing the slightly worried look on Angus's face, Allen was slightly startled, and then he remembered why Angus had this expression.
"Angus, don't worry. This is a normal process. You will understand it the more you get in touch with it. It's okay. Go back and rest peacefully. I may not be here tomorrow."
"Okay, okay."
Seeing Allen's confident face, Angus breathed a sigh of relief and patted him on the shoulder. The two of them parted ways at the entrance of the parking lot and went back to their respective homes.
Traffic in London was quite congested at noon, but fortunately the traffic flow from the city to the suburbs was not bad. Although it was congested, it was not blocked, and I could still move forward intermittently. When I arrived at the manor, it was already past one in the afternoon.
Allen looked at several unfamiliar Bentleys parked on the side of the road outside the manor.
This is not his car. At this time, someone is here looking for him?
"Let's see who comes to visit later. You haven't received any invitations in the past few days, have you?"
"There is no young master."
"Um"
Allen's motorcade slowly passed by the Bentleys and drove straight into the manor.
Just as he was about to go upstairs to change clothes, Xiao Shitou trotted over to report.
"Master, he is Dodi's father. He has come to visit you personally."
"oh?"
Dodie?
Allen was stunned for a few seconds before he remembered that this was the pretty boy's father.
Huh.
He almost forgot about it. It had been several days since he told Xiao Shitou to ask him to go to the department store, right?
Isn't this your biological father?
It took so many days to find out?
snort.
Allen snorted coldly and asked: "Didn't I ask you to chop off one of his hands and give it to his father every day? Isn't this old guy in a hurry? How many days has it been? It's been four or five days, right? It's you Didn’t do it right, or is that Dodi not his biological son?”
Xiao Shitou sniffed and said awkwardly: "Master, I did as I was told, but they never replied. I had the things delivered, and they were definitely delivered. Today is the fifth day, and today's items haven't been cut yet. It’s been chopped down.”
Ah.
Listening to Xiao Shitou's complaints, Allen found that he couldn't understand these people at all. Usually when he scares others, he succeeds every time, but as long as such a cruel method is used, the other party will soon surrendered, but what happened this time?
The son's hands and feet were cut off, so the other party would surrender?
What have you been doing?
"He came in person?"
"The cars outside are his motorcade. He came here early in the morning to wait for you, but we left early in the morning and happened to be on the other side."
"Go ahead and invite him over, eh? I'll go and meet him in the yard."
Allen originally wanted to ask the old man to go in and chat, but after thinking about it, he felt a little disgusted with these Egyptians now, and it was better not to let them enter his house.
"Your Excellency, Your Excellency, I have finally met you. Please let my son go. I am willing to exchange other properties for my son."
An old man who looks exactly like Dodi has curly black hair, which has turned white in some places. With his messy hair and a very bad complexion, it can be seen that this old guy may have been in a bad state these past two days.
When he saw Allen coming out, he trotted two steps, stretched out his hands to shake hands with Allen, and while stretching out his hands, he bent down and begged for explanation in a low voice.
"Oh? I had someone notify you a long time ago, right? Why did you wait until today?"
Allen put his hands behind his back and ignored the old guy's outstretched hands. Not everyone was qualified to shake hands with him. Allen felt that the old guy in front of him was not worthy.
Looking at the suit without the brand logo on this old guy, well, the fabric looks good. It should be a hand-made British suit. The clothes are meticulously taken care of. Except for the messy hairstyle, the rest of the clothes are dressed like a gentleman.
"Your Excellency, I want to see you in person, but"
Mohammad Fayoko was in unspeakable pain. On the first day he received his son's severed hand, Mohammad saw such a scene for the first time. He couldn't breathe and suffered a heart attack.
He quickly rushed his family members to the hospital, where he was rescued and treated. Only then did he save his life.
In Egypt, he was used to being aloof. How had he seen such a battle before?
After two full days of resuscitation, Mohammed, who had just opened his eyes, looked at his son's other hand and foot that had been sent to him in the past two days!
Faced with this extremely cruel double blow, Mohammed suffered another heart attack not long after he opened his eyes.
It wasn't that he didn't want to save his son, but that he almost lost his life.
It wasn't until last night that he saw his son's other foot again. Mohammed couldn't stay any longer. Now his hands and feet were gone. The cruelty of this man was evident. If he didn't come after today, he would send him away. What's coming?
An arm? Or his son's head?
Listening to the old man's humble explanation, Allen's heart felt unmoved.
This kind of person is very cowardly in front of him, that's because he has the means and is the main battlefield. When he was in Egypt, Allen didn't believe that this old guy was a good man and a believer. A person who could achieve such a net worth was Nothing is easy!
"In other words, not only did you fail to get what I asked for, but because of the way I did it, you had a heart attack and went to the hospital. Are you going to ask me to compensate you?"
Allen looked at the old guy with a smile.
"No, no, sir, I have never blamed you. That department store is the core asset of our family. Can you please show your favor? My son is already like this, and you have spoken out. Can you allow me to exchange it with other properties? Come back my son, please rest assured, I will definitely satisfy you."
When Mohammed Fayoko heard Allen's words, his heartbeat slowed down for half a beat, and he quickly explained that he didn't dare to ask for compensation from this person.
Before he came last night, he asked many people to inquire about this person. He didn't know the specific information about this person, but one thing was the advice from many people, advising him not to provoke this person. This person had a hot temper, a very dark personality, and acted very Cruel, give up immediately if you get involved. Anyway, in one sentence, with his current connections and social status, there is no way he can fight against this person.
