"Charles, have you seen Albert making a lot of noise lately? I seem to have heard that he has committed a lot of murders. Under the bright chandelier, Count Dillieon, who was sitting at the dining table, looked at Charles with a little hesitation, "Although no one cares about the death of some gangsters, after all, the lives of the citizens still can't be disturbed, or why don't you let him keep a low profile after that?" ”

"I think he's doing a good job, and it doesn't matter if he makes a little trouble, but it proves that he's been doing it seriously lately." Charles concentrated on cutting the steak in front of him with a knife and fork, and replied seemingly casually, "What the president wants to see is the actual result, as long as the result is ideal, then even if there are some twists and turns in the middle, he can tolerate it, you don't have to worry, I think I am in control at the moment." ”

"Oh, is that so?" After hearing Charles's answer, the well-groomed middle-aged man nodded slightly, "As long as the president is satisfied, this is the best, then...... Come, Charles, let's toast Albert's performance. ”

"Cheers."

Since receiving a task to clean up the gangs in Paris, Albert has been very attentive, and almost from the very beginning, he took Kong Ze to work in a hurry, gathering those gang members everywhere, and naturally, there were a lot of bloody cases in the middle.

Although Charles had warned and was still worried about his future political future, he had to admit that Albert's approach was indeed fruitful without thinking about the future. Those gang members who roll out on the tip of a knife are indeed the most swordsmen and guns.

Because Albert is now an official attached to the railway department. The Count of Delion felt that he also had some leadership responsibilities to a greater or lesser extent, and the reason why he said that mention yì was only to clear himself of his future responsibilities in case something happened. Right now. Now that Charles has taken care of his friend, he doesn't have to worry about anything.

Of course, his former boss had specially summoned him to the Count's palace tonight for dinner, and certainly not just to talk about these things.

But Charles was not in a hurry, and continued to use his dinner, and then suddenly and secretly raised his head while the Count was not looking. Looked at Matilda on the other side. As if sensing something, Matilda suddenly raised her head at this moment and glanced at Charles secretly. The eyes of the two men suddenly met.

Charles smiled and nodded slightly, then blinked deliberately.

Matilda blushed a little, then lowered her head suddenly, not daring to look at him again.

Charles chuckled inwardly. Then she redirected her gaze back to her father.

Although flirting with his daughter in front of a father sounds a bit excessive. But Charles got an unusual sense of excitement from it.

"Your Excellency, has the work of the ministry been going well recently?" With great difficulty, he suppressed the excitement and calmly asked the Count of Delion, "I have been absent lately, can I still suppress the people below?" ”

"It's okay, it's okay, I've been obedient lately, and no one has jumped out against us. Compared with previous years, although everyone is a little tired and lazy. But that's human nature...... replied the Count with a smile, "speaking of which." This is also your credit, when you sharpened your knives, you cut them so hard that they don't dare to say much now. ”

"Even if it's lazy, it's not enough, after all, it's a newly established department, and there are so many things to do, how can you fall into a sluggish atmosphere so quickly? How else can this be done? Unexpectedly, after hearing his words, Charles did not become happy at all, but looked at him with a solemn expression, "Sir, there are so many things that are pressing on us, how can they be allowed to be left to the surface so quickly?" You've been going to have to kill this kind of culture lately. These people, no matter what, they just can't do it......"

Perhaps because of the fact that he was talking about matters of real concern, Charles's attitude became a little stricter, almost like a condescending tone.

"Good...... Oh good...... I'll ......" Charles's sudden reaction made the Count slightly caught off guard, and he vaguely replied as he glanced away at his little daughter.

Since Matilda helped him come up with ideas and kept his hard-won ministerial position, the Count of Delier has relied more and more on this daughter of his own, not only do he often have to discuss all kinds of important matters, let her help with ideas, and today he called Charles over for dinner, and he also let Matilda accompany him.

"If the string is too tight, it will break, sir. We can't always drive them away with whips, we have to give them time to rest...... For the plans you left behind, Dad will supervise them to complete them on time. Matilda lived up to his expectations, "Besides, let's not talk about such boring things at dinner......

Matilda said, looking at Charles with a slight dissatisfaction, as if reproachful in her eyes, "How can you do this to my father." ”

Isn't it exactly the same when you talk about your father in private? Besides, if it weren't for you and me, I would have knocked him over a long time ago, how could this be respected...... Charles chuckled inwardly.

However, on the surface, he still regained his composure.

"I'm sorry, Your Excellency, but I was just a little excited...... After all, you know, I had a bit of a deep holiday with those officials. Charles smiled sheepishly, "I hope you don't take it personally." ”

"Oh, of course, how could I mind that!" The middle-aged man waved his hand indifferently and brushed off the little unpleasantness just now, "But, Charles, there is something else I want to tell you about this?" ”

"What's the matter? Say it. Charles nodded.

"Hmm...... Actually, it's not that important. The Earl still had that very charming smile on his face, "I just want to tell you about the bonds in the Ministry......

"Huh?" Almost subconsciously, Charles' eyes widened slightly.

What do they mean by that?

In the past, almost all of the bonds of the Ministry of Railways were planned and handled by Charles himself - even now that he has left office. The department in charge of bonds is still firmly in the hands of the people he promoted and appointed.

If he wanted to snatch the past, it would be almost a clear break with the Charles—a choice that the current House of Dilillion would undoubtedly not make.

So...... Think about it. Charles felt like he had figured something out.

"Well, in the bond industry before, you put in a lot of hard work, and you have suffered a lot for this, I have always remembered it." The Count sighed softly, obviously thinking of the storm that had almost swallowed them up earlier, "Still. The past is in the past, and we don't need to talk about it anymore. Now, the ministry is about to carry out a new round of financing...... I'd like to ask for your opinion. So that everyone can be satisfied and not make a new mess. ”

Hehe, this is also the pit I dug before. Charles smiled bitterly.

Charles had previously made his own decisions and engaged in three rounds of financing in a short period of time for his own selfish desires. As a result, the market was in an uproar. It has also become a major incentive for him to leave office. The bell must be tied to the bell, and now the new problem, the Minister of Nature wants him to solve it - if he does not want to fall out with him.

"You're the minister, of course this matter should be led by you, as an outsider now, I can only give some suggestions......" After complimenting him mischievously, Charles immediately turned to the topic, "But." Of course, the issue is still very complex. I'll think about it later and talk to you about it. ”

Speaking of which, now is almost a good time, the market has digested the previous three rounds of excessive financing, there is a lot of room for a new round of financing, after all, the national credit is guaranteed, as long as the timing is right, the market will still gladly absorb the bonds of the Ministry of Railways.

"It's great that you're willing to work hard for this." The minister's face was full of smiles, and he couldn't tell whether he was really happy or mocking, "However, Matilda told me before that she thought the financing would be very smooth, so she also advised me to give priority to buying some ...... What do you think? ”

Charles immediately understood.

The family is obviously not short of this money, not so much to make some money in it, but rather because the Diliion family wants to stand with them......

He looked away, but Matilda had no expression on her face, leaving him unfathomable.

Was she the one who persuaded her? As a proof of solidifying friendship?

"Of course, that's up to you, after all, you're the minister." With this in mind, Charles bowed his head respectfully to the Count. "I'll start arranging it right away, and I won't let you down."

"Oh, that's great! Charles, you've always been so capable......" After receiving this answer, the Count nodded in satisfaction.

Then, with deep meaning, he added, "Remember what I said earlier?" In this dangerous political arena, it is best for all of us to hug each other, so that we can keep our hard-won things. I still think so...... Charles, de Treville and de Delierion, shouldn't they have done this? ”

"Of course I think so, sir." Still smiling, Charles said, "I've always respected and supported you, just as I have done in the past. ”

………………

At the end of the dinner, the Count of Dilillion, having received a satisfactory result, gladly left the room and returned to his bedroom, but Charles did not take his leave.

Matilda left her seat silently, and walked out of the dining room, as if she didn't know that Charles was following.

When she opened the door, like a ghost, Charles flashed in, and came to the room full of bookshelves where he had been twice before.

"Don't do that, okay?" After closing the door, Matilda turned her head and looked at Charles with some dissatisfaction, "Someone saw it!" ”

"What if you see it? I've been here before, anyway, so I just said it would be nice to talk to you about some literary topics......" Charles smiled nonchalantly.

"Even so, you can't ......," Matilda wanted to say something.

"Hmm......"

She was suddenly forcibly hugged by Charles and then kissed.

After a long time, the lips of the two people slowly parted.

"Too much, sir?" Matilda was really dissatisfied, although her face was still very red, but there was already some anger in her eyes.

"Matilda?" Something strange about the Charles.

"Do you think it's funny that you're doing this in someone else's house? Or do you feel like you can do whatever you want, as long as you're happy, and you don't have to care about anyone else? Or do you think you can manipulate me as much as you want? ”

"Of course I didn't mean that, I just couldn't help it, sorry, Matilda." Charles quickly apologized, reached out and gently stroked her shoulder, "Don't be angry, I'm just joking." ”

"Forget it, if you understand." He apologized for a while before Matilda finally relented.

"Is today's event also your idea?" Charles asked.

"Yes." Matilda nodded. "If everyone is connected, there is no need to be suspicious."

"Of course, of course, that's for the best." Charles nodded.

"And I want to thank you," Matilda smiled and pointed to the pile of letters on her desk, "thanks to you, I can communicate with Mademoiselle de Perriette, she is such an interesting person!" ”

So, you called me over just to talk about this?

Charles sighed in disappointment. (To be continued!)
