Chapter Eighty-Seven: A God-Sent Opportunity

Baron de Beauwon, who was still focused on the business setback just now, of course, did not know what his daughter was thinking at the moment, on the contrary, he was deeply pleased with Lola's well-behaved and sensible.

"Forget it, don't mention that idiot Maurice, it's a waste of time," he frowned, and then the expression on his face changed from his father's mildness to banker indifference in that moment, "Lola, wait a minute, learn from them, and you'll have more to do on your own in the future." ”

"Sounds like you don't trust them much?" Lola gave her father a cautious look.

"Yes, I don't really trust them much now, or I never have ever trusted them." As if pleased with his daughter's sensibility, the baron smiled and nodded, "I didn't care about that before, but now...... I have to make sure they don't have a chance to betray us. ”

"Don't you...... Are you worried that someone is dealing with us? ”

"It's not a worry, it's a fact. The one born today has proved this, there is a group of people who are uniting against us! The baron replied in a low voice, "It would be naïve to think that they just wanted us to lose a few million and then stop......"

"There's a group of people banding together against you?" Lola's expression became more solemn, "Is that the group of Jews you were scolding just now?" ”

"Jews? Non-Jews? No, it doesn't matter, bankers are not ethnic, kid. The baron shook his head, "It's a world of eating and being eaten, what the hell is I, or anyone else." It doesn't matter at all, it's just whether you can eat it or not. I don't choose who to exploit based on ethnicity. Neither will the others, which is a pity. Now some people think they can eat my ......"

"They're going to pay the price!" Lola replied immediately.

"Well, that's right, they're going to pay the price, but not now, it's us who should pay the price now, because they have an advantage now." The baron laughed calmly, no longer seeing a trace of his anger, "Well, I don't need to tell you so much now......"

That's when it happened. There was a knock on the door of the study, and the baron stopped.

"Come in!"

The servant quickly entered, and then silently handed a letter to the baron, bowed, and exited the study.

The baron picked up the letter, opened it, and read it carefully.

After reading it, his face became even more gloomy.

"Okay! I'll just say it! This group of dogs is really not a small fight, I really want to play big! He shouted. Then he slapped the letter on the table again, "Hmph, what do they really think they can do to me?" Well, now I'm putting up with it. We'll see! ”

"Dad, what's going on?" Lola asked her father with concern.

"Hmph, what's going on? See for yourself. A hint of ferocity flashed across the baron's face. Do they really think they can do whatever they want? ”

Lola picked up the letter and read it carefully.

This is a letter from the Minister of Railways, Count de Dulièon. Although it is full of all kinds of cumbersome polite words, and the language is very euphemistic. But the central meaning is not hard to find between the lines.

The letter said...... "After reading the letter, Lola came to a conclusion." The next batch of financing from the Ministry of Railways may not come to us again? ”

"That's right, we've lost a lot of money again, if nothing else." The baron frowned tightly and replied gloomily, "It is a pleasure that we have been hit twice in just one day. ”

"We can't just do nothing and suffer for nothing. If there are no accidents, let's make accidents, Dad! Lola seemed to be much more excited than her father, "We have to let others know that we are not easy to mess with!" Didn't Monsieur de Treville, who had been in power in the Ministry of Railways before? I'm gone now, but I should be able to talk, right? As long as he intervenes, maybe His Excellency will change his mind. No, he must change his mind. ”

However, his father remained calm.

After a while, the baron sighed.

"Lola, you're right, but I can't do that."

"Can't do that? Why? Lola was visibly stunned. I think that's possible. ”

"Because now that the loss has been done, I don't need to embarrass him anymore, what's the point? Will he be able to make me recoup a loss? No, no. I still need him now, and I can't let him repay my favor lightly. ”

Lola still looked at her father in confusion, clearly not understanding what the other man meant.

"The root cause of the surprise attack I am facing now is...... There are so many people in that group that I can't fix it all at once. As he spoke, the baron picked up a pen and paper from his desk and began to write back, "Therefore, not only should I not fight now, but I should calm down, expand my ranks, and wait until the time is right before I have a showdown with these dog mongrels." ”

"You mean, we need to be on good terms with Mr. Treville?" Lola finally understood.

"Yes, this kid is capable now, I have to wait slowly, don't rush to recover the investment, and when the time comes, he will be more prosperous, and I will clean up the relationship with him." Such an investment always pays off," the baron pouted disdainfully as he spoke, "Minister of Finance? Hmph, isn't he just a cabinet member? Who knows if he'll be able to do it for a year or two? Who cares about him! When the time comes, I'll become the president of the Banque de France, and see how I clean them up one by one! ”

Now that she is alone, she can rest now, wait for the right time, and settle the account with them when she becomes the president - Lola finally understands her father's plan.

"Then you were so angry just now, did you make a show to them?" Lola suddenly seemed to think of something.

"Yes, even if you encounter unexpected losses, what's the use of venting in a hurry? You should think about it calmly. The baron replied as a matter of course, "Besides, we can't afford to lose." The reason why I expressed Xiàn like that was just to make them understand that I was not joking, so that they would not dare to betray me. ”

Lola lowered her head, and a look of reverence and adoration suddenly flashed in her eyes.

This is my father, who is always in control.

"Well, it's getting late, they're going to be ready......" the baron looked at the clock next to the fireplace, "and you'll go to the little exchange with them later, and try to make up for your father's losses." ”

As he has said before, his present capital can afford to lose so much, even though it seems to many to be a great deal of money, so let it be a field apprenticeship, so that the children may learn from their father's failures and remedy them so that they do not repeat them in the future.

It's a pity...... A father's kindness is sometimes not appreciated by his children.

"What, hasn't that bastard boy come back yet?" When he heard the servant who came to fetch the letter say that his son Maurice had not yet returned home, the baron, who was already in a slightly better mood, could not help but lose his temper again, "Where has he gone?" ”

"My brother has been coming home late lately, and everyone doesn't know where to go." Lola on the side replied quietly, "After all, my brother has a lot of friends outside, and sometimes I really need to socialize......

"What friend? Useful people are friends! What other use could the people he had befriended be for anything other than to gnaw some gold off him? This one...... This one...... Bastard boy, I really don't know what to say about him, do you really think that money fell from the sky?! The baron frowned, his hands trembling slightly, "He really thought ...... Did he really think I couldn't control him? Wait for him to come back tonight and see how I clean him up!" ”

Lola was still listening quietly, unmoved.

Growing up, from her father's mouth, words like "I want to clean him up" - many of them were deliberately caused by her - she had heard her father say that she didn't know how many times, but every time her father hung up and put it down gently, as long as her brother was a little obedient, his father would be soft-hearted, and finally continue to indulge his bad habits. As a result, after years of accumulation, the elder brother, who was originally considered smart, became uninterested in his career, and only wanted to spend his days drinking and living in style.

In this way, maybe my brother has become so useless, and my father's endless doting is the main reason.

Forget it, there's no point in dwelling on this kind of issue anymore...... Because I was determined to kill him, I would not change my mind no matter what happened again—she thought to herself.

Suddenly, as if in response to this cry in her heart, her father suddenly turned his head to stare at Lola.

Under the forced gaze of this sharp gaze, Lola, who was weak-hearted, couldn't help but shiver.

"Father?" She forcibly suppressed the panic in her heart and asked reluctantly.

"You...... You go over first, and leave him alone. The baron waved his hand impatiently, and then gave a supplementary order, "Those fox friends of his, I should take care of them, I can't let them go on forever, how can he inherit the family business in the future?" Lola, these days, you have to figure out who is messing around with him, and I want to throw them all out one by one! When others are afraid of your brother's revenge and dare not tell me, you don't have to be afraid of this, he can't bully you! ”

Isn't this a justifiable way to find out my brother's whereabouts?

It's not ...... Isn't that a godsend? Not only God, but even my dad is helping me......

An inexplicable sense of relief suddenly came to Lola's heart.

Great, great!

"Well, I will, father." A smile appeared on Lola's face. (To be continued!)
