In front of Boss Cha, Alan thought that Boss Cha disliked him for being unable to let go, so he quickly took out a cigarette and joined him.
After a brief silence, Boss Cha sighed and said, "You were very decisive in leaving the airport this time. You handled this matter very well and did not have any conflict with them."
…
Alan knew that what Boss Cha was talking about was what happened at the airport after he got off the plane in South Korea.
In that situation, with hundreds of people, you would be a fool not to run away...
A group of people teamed up to fight a BOSS. Finally, the BOSS was about to be defeated. Some people had bad ideas about how to divide the equipment. Some were afraid of the last blow of the BOSS before death. The former teammates became wary of each other and were not as united as before.
He sighed again, looked at Alan and said, "Actually, their existence is a good thing for us now. Without them... we would be under even greater pressure."
Alan flicked the ash off his cigarette, and he understood what he meant.
The Russians are holding on, and everyone has a common goal. The current situation is relatively stable. Moreover, with the speech made by the new leader some time ago, they have actually lost their composure, completely denied the past, and even want to transform. As a result, the external situation is much less stressful than before.
But even though he understands it, to be honest, Alan doesn't care about this kind of thing.
It's too far away from him. With his current ability, he can't control it, and he doesn't want to get involved in these things.
Wouldn't it be better to just earn some money, make some movies, and bully men and women in Wales without any worries?
…
Seeing Alan's nonchalant look, Boss Cha's anger flared up again. He was very unhappy with the feeling of being in a hopeless situation.
He raised Alan as his nephew and raised him according to his own habits.
Now that you have grown up, how can you still be so lazy and uneducated?
He wants to control everything he likes, regardless of whether others listen to him or not. However, he has a wide range of interests, knows a little about everything, and can also participate in cabinet meetings.
Today, the external situation is changing rapidly, but Britain's tradition is to be conservative and seek stability.
People who seek stability hate any major changes.
America can no longer hold back, but even though they can no longer hold back, they are still cowardly and dare not take action themselves, so they can only look for someone to take the blame.
This time when Allen went to South Korea to supervise the Olympics, he was involved in this kind of thing.
Someone wanted to use him as a pawn, but Allen didn't fall for it...
And then it was left unresolved.
…
"The outside world has been unstable for the past two years, so you'd better not run around too often and be careful."
"I understand, Your Highness!"
Boss Cha thought for a moment, looked at Allen, and brought up the old matter again: "You are an adult now, don't be so willful. The situation has been unstable in the past two years. What do you think? Why don't you take advantage of this time to go to university for further studies?"
"ah?"
Alan gets a headache when it comes to going to college.
Two years ago, he suddenly retired from the army and came back to inherit the title. There were a lot of things going on at home. Charles asked him to go to college, but how could he have the time?
At that time, my pockets were cleaner than my face, but I still had to worry about the inheritance tax for my family, and there were also "foreign enemies" spying on me from outside.
Now, after two years of stability, things at home are back on track.
But after going to school, his usual time became tight.
In this case, how can I have time to make movies and communicate with actresses?
Isn't this going to cost him his life?
How can people who are used to being wild be willing to go to school obediently?
…
Charles became even angrier when he saw Alan acting like a scoundrel when he mentioned going to school.
“Bang!”
A slap landed hard on the coffee table between the two sofas, and the ash on the cigar flew everywhere.
"You have to go, whether you want to or not! I saw a rumor about you spreading all over America a while ago. You are only twenty years old, and you still have a long life ahead of you. Are you going to play around like this for the rest of your life? Huh?!"
…
"Your Highness, I still have William and Harry to take care of."
Alan quickly brought out his two younger brothers as shields.
"What the hell! You're just going to college. I'm not asking you to go abroad. If you're too busy, just send them both to me and go to school in peace!"
"Uh... I'll go ahead. I'll go ahead. It won't affect you."
Seeing that Charles was determined, Allen had to give in.
As for William and Harry, they were reluctant to let Charles take them back. Although according to recent newspapers, Charles and Diana seemed to have reconciled, no one had ever asked about this matter.
…
"Cambridge or Oxford? What subject do you want to study?"
Seeing that Alan finally gave in, Charles smiled and felt relieved. He hated people disobeying him the most. Now that Alan agreed, Charles couldn't wait to make arrangements for Alan. He might even send him to college tomorrow to avoid causing trouble for him outside.
"Your Highness... I'm homesick and don't want to go too far. Can I just choose a university in Wales?"
"Um?"
Charles, who had just put on a smile on his face, suddenly froze when he heard Alan's words.
But then, he thought about it and felt relieved. For someone like Alan, he would not be as yearning for universities like Cambridge and Oxford as ordinary people. To be honest, diplomas are of no use to someone like him.
He wants to find a university close to home, probably because he wants to be able to handle family matters nearby. After all, this kid has figured out some things in the past two years. Didn’t that food delivery company just open a short time ago?
If he went to school in London all of a sudden, he wouldn't be able to take care of her since it's so far away from Wales.
He sent Allen to college just to let him read, gain some knowledge, and make more connections, but not to let Allen give up the family business.
"That's fine, but the university in Wales..."
Charles thought about it and realized that there were no good universities in Wales. The best one, Cardiff University, was barely ranked in the top 200 in the world. In the eyes of foreigners, it might be considered a good school, but Charles looked down on it.
But it is already the best university in Wales and a member of the Russell Group.
The Russell Group is the equivalent of the UK's Ivy League, and this is the only university in Wales that is a member of the group.
"Okay... let's go to Cardiff University. What major do you plan to study?"
…
Charles, who was originally discussing the external situation, became extremely enthusiastic like an old father when talking about school, and asked Alan with curiosity what major he wanted to choose.
"philosophy?"
Alan said something tentatively, but seeing Charles frowned, he quickly changed his words: "Biological, biological!"
"You're studying biology?"
Charles pursed his lips and looked at Alan with suspicion.
I thought Alan would go to Journalism and Communication, which is the most famous college at Cardiff University. It is ranked first in the UK and is known as the Oxford of Journalism Colleges.
But Charles never expected that he would choose a creature?
"Your Highness... I know they are famous for their journalism, but isn't that college in London... I just want to be closer to home."
"Well... don't rush to choose. You will definitely not be able to keep up with the September courses. I will have something to tell you about the January courses by then. You can only wait for the courses in April or May next year. Go back and think about it carefully."
"Okay, I understand."
…
Alan watched Charles stand up. He thought Charles was going to take him to lunch, so he followed Charles. But this road...
Why are we going further and further away?
"Next March, you need to prepare in advance and come with me to London. The Queen will review the Royal Guards, and you will follow me then."
Before leaving the house, Charles paused and said something.
Alan looked outside and saw that his driver and bodyguard were already waiting by the car, then he looked at Charles.
Aren’t you going to leave me a meal?
"Okay, Your Highness, I understand."
"Well...you can go now."
Charles pointed at Allen's motorcade, turned around and left without any reluctance.
"???"
…
On the way back to Wales, Alan was still a little angry.
I got up early in the morning, spent so much time dressing up, and put so much thought into it, only to be scolded a few times without asking any questions. Then I was arranged to go to a university, and in the end I was kicked out?
Is there still any law?
Blame it on the Koreans!
…
Taking out the unwrapped pack of cigarettes Charles had given him, Alan lit one and opened the car window to get some fresh air.
Just go to college.
The main reason why he didn't want to go to London, besides being homesick, was because going to university in London was too cost-effective!
It's not like he's really planning to go to college to learn knowledge and improve himself.
He went there to poach people.
But universities like Cambridge and Oxford are full of big names, and there are also children of powerful foreign families.
Is it so easy to dig out such a person?
The purpose of going there to attend college is to make more connections, but Alan is not so interested in such campus connections now. He prefers something more practical.
For example, the talented people at Cardiff University.
Cardiff University is close to home and is located in Wales, which means that Alan can go there to study without any problems!
Unlike when he went to London, many people ignored him and he had to be more restrained.
As long as Alan gets into Cardiff University, a university right next to his home.
That's almost like a mouse entering a rice jar. Can't he just fleece the sheep however he wants?
…
Junior students?
Let’s follow the seniors?
The senior will help you become rich and reach the peak of your life, and there will be rewards of titles in the future. Are you excited?
Those who can come to Cardiff University are all practical talents, even if there are one or two noble children, but...
In Wales, no matter who you are, get down right there!
Allen has been coveting these practical talents for a long time. Didn’t the previous movies say what is the most important thing in the 21st century?
What a talent!
When the time comes, he can run his business while looking after Cardiff University which is right next to his home, and slowly reap the benefits of the school. Isn't this much better than going to school in London?
…
"Master? Why are you back so soon?"
Hut was a little confused when he saw Alan coming back so early, mainly because Alan didn't call back in advance.
"Ahem... Your Highness suddenly had something urgent to attend to. Now that we have finished discussing the matter, I will return first."
Alan coughed dryly and made up an excuse.
"So what would you like to eat for lunch?"
"Just ask Master Zong to make me some nourishing dishes. Recently..."
Alan thought about the days in Korea. He played all day and night and felt tired. He needed some replenishment.
"I'm going to the study to write something. When it's done, bring it to me."
"OK."
Hut looked at the impetuous Alan, said a few words in a hurry and went upstairs, and quickly asked the servant to go to the kitchen to notify Master Zong to cook.
…
Before I reached the study door, I heard the sound of something hard stepping on the stone floor in the corridor.
"Click, click, click, click."
A fat white bird was staggering, looking a little bit wretched as it spread its wings and circled around in the corridor.
Hearing someone coming up, Xiao Huang suddenly turned his head on the spot, and his big yellow eyes just happened to see Alan.
"Gu!"
Picking up the somewhat heavy Xiao Huang, Alan went into the study and put Xiao Huang on the desk as usual.
We have finally dealt with Charles, so what's next...
It's time to take revenge!
Damn Koreans, they finally have time to do their own thing!
Alan couldn't sleep or eat well because he was so humiliated by others.
…
There are only more than two months left until Christmas, and there is no time to think through many plans.
I picked up the manuscript paper and wrote a word on it first - tariff!
For a place like South Korea, whose main pillar industry relies on overseas trade, if we want to attack them, we must hit them where it hurts the most!
Thinking of the Duke of Angus who has been very idle recently, Alan chuckled. It is time for him, as the exclusive spokesperson, to stretch his muscles. The second half of the Congress has just begun.
Allen's initial plan was to make a fuss about the tariff.
With his current ability, he can forget about raising tariffs or something like that.
But he can't raise tariffs. He can let Angus bring the proposal to the House of Lords!
Now is the economic winter of Britain. Koreans are impacting our market with some low-quality but cheap products. Are you noble lords going to ignore Koreans?
As long as this proposal is put forward in the Senate, no matter what the result is, as long as the news leaks outside, it will scare the Koreans to death.
In this way, Allen's initial goal was achieved.
I don't ask for anything, I just want to disgust the Koreans first. As long as this kind of news gets out, some Korean companies that mainly rely on international trade, such as Sanxing, will probably see their stock prices fall...
Then, when their attention is drawn to the proposal in the House of Lords, Alan will be able to give the Koreans a hard time in Wales!
Let these little Koreans see what Master Allen’s anger is like.
…
"Bang, bang, bang."
As there was a knock on the door, Alan called out to come in. He thought it was Hut coming to deliver the meal, but who knew it was Jiaxin who came in?
"Huh? Why are you here?"
Seeing Jiaxin personally following the servant and asking him to set the tableware, Alan was still a little dazed. Among so many opposite sexes he knew, Jiaxin was the first one to enter his study.
