The self-aggrandizing Edward pumped Lao Tzu's face with a 'snap', and by the way, he received a wave of friendly phone greetings.

Li Zitao's mother-in-law, Her Excellency the Grand Duchess, personally called: "Edward, you are not welcome at this year's royal dinner, stay away from Mary and her husband. ”

At the time of receiving a call from her mother, Mary was doing aerobics, a burgeoning sport that was spreading in a small area, and Mary was interested in her.

"Mom, thank you for everything... Okay, I'll go back to Luxembourg with Charlie for Christmas, he won't mind... Okay, I'll bring, love you. ”

Hanging up the phone, Mary said to the curious Li Zitao: "Mom invited us back to Luxembourg for Christmas, and I have agreed. ”

"That's a great idea, and of course I'll say yes. Li Zitao nodded in agreement.

"And... She lectured Edward on the phone and refused to allow him to attend this year's royal dinner. Sitting on her husband's lap, Mary rested her head on his chest, some cold nails running lightly across his cheeks.

"Is that the royal dinner you said?" Seeing Mary nodding in confirmation, Li Zitao suddenly felt some sympathy for him in his heart.

It's the premier dinner to expand your network, your glory, your status, and even your influence, and it's only held once a year in Luxembourg.

Present were lords and nobles from various countries, royal heirs, and Edward was a frequent guest and legend at the dinner.

Handsome and handsome, all-encompassing, with impeccable identity and status, and the future heir to the throne, the girls are proud to be his dance partners.

Only now it seems that his myth ended at last year's dinner, and this year the legend was put on the 'unwelcome blacklist,' and there was no chance to perform again.

"By the way, it's almost the end of the month, Lawrence's wedding, is the gift wrapped?" Among the few things he brought back from the antique store last time, Li Zitao chose a delicate and wealthy brooch and planned to give it to them as a wedding gift.

"It's all ready, Avril will love that brooch, it's beautiful. Mary smiled lightly.

"Is it more beautiful than the Xianxi Scepter I gave you?" asked Li Zitao with a straight face and pretending to be angry.

"Ha, you look so cute. Mary held his face and rubbed it like a child, so that Li Zitao couldn't pretend anymore, and smiled helplessly.

Speaking of the Xianxi Scepter, Mary's eyes bloomed with a beautiful look, and because of the inconvenience at the wedding ceremony, the Xianxi Scepter did not appear in the end.

There was no place to use it after marriage, so she put it in the safe.

But that doesn't mean she doesn't like it, the cane is one of her favorite collections.

In the safe at home, there are a collection of jewelry, rings, wedding dresses, and various accessories, worth tens of millions of dollars.

There is also a gemstone wedding ring that she wears every time she attends a formal occasion, which is not very convenient to carry in her life, and she usually collects it in the safe.

For this reason, the number of safes in the house has been increased to two, and when the vault of the Dream Castle is completed, the antique shop and the family's collection will be moved.

The 22cm thick reinforced concrete wall contains 5cm thick steel plates, and the gate is 20cm thick pure explosion-proof steel plates.

The motorized device that opens and closes the door was tailor-made by NOVA, and Bechtel designed a vibration alarm.

There will be several steel balls on the surface of the inner wall, as well as the slideway, once the wall is subjected to some degree of shock, the steel ball will fall off into the slideway, pressing the metal sheet below, and emitting a piercing alarm bell when the power is on.

No one knows what the actual effect is, but the vault of the Dream Castle is considered a test item.

Li Zitao is quite idle these days, handling official business at home every day, accompanying his wife to shop and relax, visiting the park, driving to the beach for a ride, and the days are simple and warm.

The meeting with Dodgers owner Charles Abbis has not yet been finalized, and the recent game has been very tight and the traffic is not developed.

Not everyone has a private jet that can fly all over the world.

When it comes to private jets, American Aerospace's profit points in private services and after-sales continue to rise.

Using a private jet does not mean that it is all over when you buy it, the plane is a sophisticated machine, and a small part can fall off and cause a plane crash.

Routine inspections, upkeeps, maintenance, route scheduling and flight communications are all things that need to be done.

The indispensable downtime fee, $50,000 per Gulfstream per year, can generate millions in revenue for the aerospace industry alone.

After handling official business as usual today, Li Zitao put his wife in the car, and she was going to the West District to attend the ladies ballroom ballroom.

He stayed at home and waited for the skunk people, who said they had something to discuss with him.

At 2 p.m., the Skunk Man arrived, James MacDonald, who was the head of the private jet program, and William Mitchell and William Sims, who were special advisers.

"James, I heard that you proposed this meeting, do you have any questions?" Inviting the three of them to sit down in the garden, Li Zitao asked kindly.

"Is there something, boss, have you heard of Douglas Aircraft?" James got straight to the point.

"The company that wanted to build a luxury airship two years ago, and what is so special about it?" Li Zitao said curiously with the black tea prepared by the maid.

"That's a thing of the past, and they've improved the luxury airship called Sinbad to make it an amphibious luxury private jet,

And it has been recognized by the War Department as a special rescue aircraft, if it is allowed to develop, it may eventually become a fierce rival of the Gulfstream. ”

Taking the documents handed over by James, Li Zitao looked at it, and his eyes couldn't help but light up, the slightly bulky appearance design, there is a strange beauty, amphibious, multi-purpose, the fish-bellied cabin has a lot of room for transformation, and the skunk also extends the concept in all aspects according to its shape.

Artificial rainfall, fire extinguishing, sea rescue, transport drop-off, and... Bombing.

"Do you want Aerospace to buy this company?" asked Li Zitao with interest.

"Yes, Douglas has a very well-established technical reserve, holds a lot of patents on amphibious vehicles, and it is difficult for us to get around them, and the design scheme has been unanimously agreed by Skunk. James nodded.

"I agreed, tell me what your true purpose is. Li Zitao put the documents on the table.

Such trifle did not alarm the two former generals, whose interest was never commercial.

James and the two William generals looked at each other and smiled, and William Mitchell spoke: "James, Sims, and I want to set up a new working group, the Air Force Think Tank. ”
