Alan stood up, without looking at the Indian who was receiving reform education, and opened his arms to signal Xiao Shitou to put on his coat. With the help of the mirror held by the servant, he adjusted his clothes a little, and finally picked up the top hat and put it on, and the outfit was complete.
As planned, we will stay in Mumbai for a day tonight and have booked a hotel at the Taj Mahal Hotel, which can also be called the Taj Mahal Hotel. Anyway, due to translation issues, these two names refer to the same hotel.
"Go and call up this Indian's deputy. I want to see him!"
Alan gave some instructions and just stood by the window, quietly watching the chaotic scene on the dock.
…
When Jahani was about to board the ship, he saw his boss, the fat Indian, with blood all over his face and a look of not knowing whether to live or die, being dragged to the deck by two big men, like a dead dog, and then...
With a "plop", his boss was thrown into the sea from the deck several meters high. A dark stain of blood slowly emerged on the sea surface, and in a short while, the bloodstains were washed away.
"What are you looking at? Hurry up, the Master wants to see you!"
“Yes, yes, yes!”
When Jahani heard the urging voice from behind him, he suddenly shuddered and quickened his pace.
…
"Are you responsible for the outer security?"
“…”
Jahani really wanted to say that he was not the one, but the person who was actually in charge of the outer security had just been thrown into the sea and his life or death was unknown. He had not figured out what happened yet, so now... he could only admit it.
"Yes...it's me, Your Excellency."
Jahani didn't know Allen, and had never even heard of him. He had never seen Allen's movies, only the news. He didn't have time to read the news, and occasionally read the newspaper. He might have accidentally seen the quarrel between Allen and Thatcher in the newspaper before, but he had no impression of it anymore.
Facing the young man in front of him with cold eyes and a very sinister temperament, Jahani shrank back and prepared to listen to what he wanted from him.
"I don't care what your superiors tell you to do, or what methods you use. If you can't clear a road wide enough for the convoy to pass within ten minutes, the consequences... will be the same as your boss's. Do you understand?"
"Yes! I'll arrange it right away."
Jahani nodded and bowed, and instantly thought of his boss whose life or death was unknown.
"By the way, find someone to fish out your boss. Don't let him die next to our yacht. I think his blood is dirty."
"Yes! I...I..."
"roll!"
Alan was too lazy to look at this dark and thin Indian man. A trace of disgust flashed across his face and he waved his hand to signal him to get out.
…
As the Britannic docked, the welcoming crowd at the dock began to get restless, but after waiting for more than an hour, no one came down from the ship, which made the anxious crowd slowly calm down.
The Indian police in charge of outer security, holding batons, struggled to clear a path wide enough for the convoy to pass. Then someone trotted onto the boat and reported the following situation...
The long-awaited Boss Cha finally makes his grand appearance!
Wearing white trousers, a gray tuxedo jacket, and a yellow top hat, Boss Cha raised his right hand and waved to the Indian crowd who came to greet him at the dock. With his mouth almost grinning to his ears, he walked down the ladder in small steps.
Diana subconsciously wanted Allen to walk in front of her, but Allen looked at her, rolled his eyes at her, and pursed his lips slightly to signal her to hurry up and stop wasting time. Diana also rolled her eyes at Allen, and then reluctantly followed Boss Cha off the boat.
Seeing these two people appear, the crowd on the dock became restless again, and the road that had just been cleared was shrinking at a speed visible to the naked eye.
There were several local officials from Mumbai who had been waiting at the dock to welcome them, as well as a person sent from New Delhi to welcome them. However, Alan did not approach them. This was Boss Cha's business, so he just let them communicate.
Alan stood beside the convoy and watched Boss Cha simply shake hands with them before walking towards the convoy. This time he breathed a sigh of relief, opened the door of the first car and sat in first.
Boss Cha sat in the back car, Diana sat in the third car, Alan was responsible for leading the way, and of course there were two Land Rovers in front of him for protection.
…
I still remember watching an American TV series before, I forgot what it was called, Allen, anyway it was a zombie movie, the kind where everyone in the city turned into zombies, the protagonist's family drove out of the city to escape, and the vehicles on the road were surrounded by zombies. The scene was similar to the current scene.
Countless people were very close to the vehicle. The Indian policemen who were holding hands and acting as a human cordon were squeezed so hard that their faces could not be seen. At the closest distance, Alan could even see their faces pressed against the windows. The oil on their faces left marks on the window glass, and when the sun shone on them, the light coming in from outside seemed to be distorted.
It seemed that these Rolls-Royces were no longer available, but fortunately they were all the cars that Boss Cha had brought. If they had been replaced with his own cars, Alan would have been planning to bring a bus that day. Thinking of this, Alan was even a little scared. It was not that he was reluctant to give up his car, but that Indians liked to climb on buses. What if some people climbed onto his bus?
There were people crawling everywhere in the car. Just imagine that scene... eh... so disgusting.
It took more than an hour to walk from the pier to the hotel. The convoy finally entered the hotel gate. Behind the convoy was a welcoming crowd. In addition to the welcoming crowd originally organized, there were also some city residents who came to watch the fun.
When Alan first saw this scene, he felt a little disgusted and worried, but after seeing it for a long time, he felt a little uncomfortable. This scene of being crowded and watched made him feel like a rare animal sitting in a car, being protected for people to watch.
…
"Haha, Alan, come here!"
Standing in the room on the top floor of the hotel, Boss Cha was in a good mood, pointing at the India Gate in the distance with an expression of emotion on his face.
Indians claim that this thing was designed with inspiration from the Arc de Triomphe, but in essence, it was built in the style of the Arc de Triomphe. It is now one of India's famous attractions and a facade attraction in Mumbai.
The India Gate was originally built to commemorate King George VI and Queen Mary.
Speaking of this, Alan could understand why Boss Cha was so emotional.
This is about reminding people of someone when seeing the object, and there is also a bit of fate playing tricks on it.
Speaking of this, a very interesting point is that now...
As of 1992, only a few regions, namely those former British colonies, would call the British royal family the royal family. In Hong Kong, when Mr. Cha went there last year, they also called them that. At that time, the newspapers described Mr. Cha and Diana's identities as the Crown Prince and his wife.
…
There is a difference between the royal family and the imperial family. Now the mainstream media in Europe generally calls the British royal family because the emperor is gone!
And this emperor does not refer to the emperor of Britain, but the emperor of India!
The highest title in Britain is the King, that is, the King of England. Since they conquered India, they also took away the highest title in India, and it was inherited by the King of England. This is also the origin of the British emperor and the royal family. Their emperor is the emperor of India, not Britain. It was originally called the British Empire, and this emperor is the emperor of India.
Boss Cha's great-grandfather, George V, was known as the Sailor Emperor. When he was in power, he liked to visit places by boat, a bit like Emperor Qianlong's trip to the south of the Yangtze River. He left behind many interesting stories and became more well-known.
The successor to the throne of England after George V was King Edward VIII, the eldest son of George V and Queen Mary.
However, Edward VIII loved beauty more than power. He was criticized for the identity of his marriage partner and finally abdicated voluntarily!
Then the new King of England was succeeded by George VI, Edward VIII's younger brother from the same mother and father.
George VI is the father of the current Queen and the grandfather of Mr. Cha.
If his uncle had not abdicated the throne, he would not be the crown prince now.
However, the only regret for Boss Cha is that his old mother gave up the title of Emperor of India when she succeeded to the throne. Now, he probably won’t have it in his life in the future.
So, the British royal family started with the Queen, and the name changed back to the royal family.
…
Boss Cha pointed at the India Gate while holding a cigar and told Allen about the past. Suddenly, he changed his tone and asked, "I asked you to talk to her that day. Did it work?"
When he got off the ship today, he glanced back and found that it was Diana walking behind him. He felt very satisfied. This was not like when he went out, before leaving the British port, when Diana asked Allen to walk behind him when boarding the ship. Although Boss Cha did not say anything at that time, he did not like it very much. This time when he arrived in India, it finally changed back, which made Boss Cha think that Allen's conversation was effective.
“…”
There was no effect when I talked to her!
Alan smacked his lips, not knowing what to say. He couldn't say bad things about Diana in front of Boss Cha, but if he spoke the truth...it would probably make Boss Cha lose face, so it wasn't worth it, so...
This is a bit difficult to say.
"Uh... Your Highness, look at tomorrow's schedule. We are going to the Taj Mahal..."
Alan tried to change the subject, but couldn't think of what to say, so he just kept silent.
"etc!"
Speaking of the Taj Mahal, Boss Cha, who had just looked calm, suddenly raised his hand, signaling Allen to stop talking, then looked at the India Gate in the distance, pondered for a moment, and said, "We won't go to the Taj Mahal tomorrow. Hmm... let's do some normal business activities instead."
"Ah? Change the itinerary? That's fine. Then when will we change our trip to the Taj Mahal?"
When Allen heard that Boss Cha wanted to change the itinerary, he didn't take it seriously at first. He thought Boss Cha just wanted to go somewhere else first, so he simply asked all the questions so that he could explain it to his subordinates when he returned and ask them to change the itinerary.
…
"No, cancel the trip to the Taj Mahal. I won't go there any day."
After saying this, Boss Cha walked over to the sofa, sat down, and lowered his head to think about something.
"Ah? Not going? This..."
Alan was a little confused...
Other places are easy to go, but if you don’t go to the Taj Mahal, there will be some troubles.
It's not because of how beautiful the Taj Mahal is that you have to go there. Although the Taj Mahal was selected as a World Cultural Heritage in 1983, to put it bluntly, this place is just a big tomb. Ordinary tourists can just treat it as a tourist attraction when they come here.
But it was different for Boss Cha. During the few days of sailing, Alan still made up for some things he needed to pay attention to during this trip to India.
Take the Taj Mahal for example, this was a trip that had been planned long ago!
More than ten years ago, when Boss Cha was young, he visited India. He was not married at that time and came alone. He visited the Taj Mahal that time. It didn’t matter if he visited it, the main thing was that he left a promise here that the next time he came to India, he would bring his beloved woman to visit the Taj Mahal again.
To put it bluntly, this is just like in China, when you come across a temple, you go there to worship Buddha and make a wish, and when your wish comes true in the future, you have to go there to fulfill it!
Now Boss Cha has two sons, and they brought Diana with them. When they arrived here, their first stop was Mumbai, so that he could fulfill his wish as soon as possible and then take Diana to visit the Taj Mahal.
Now he can't say...
What does this mean?
Diana wasn't the one he loved in his heart? And Diana must have known about it.
Originally... Alan thought that this visit to the Taj Mahal would somewhat ease the relationship between the two of them, but he didn't expect that Boss Cha suddenly canceled the trip and said he would not go there again.
What is this for?
Think about Diana tomorrow, uh... no, I guess she will know tomorrow's schedule tonight. If Diana knows that Boss Cha did this by then, how angry will she be?
This is a blatant slap in the face, and the media outside are watching the whole process, this...
Maybe it will make the headlines tomorrow!
What can Alan do when faced with such a situation?
He was panicking. No matter what happened before, at least he had a piece of cloth to cover his body. But now...
Why is Boss Cha suddenly ready to lift the fig leaf?
…
"Your Highness... This is not good. If the outside media find out that we have cancelled the trip to the Taj Mahal, then... we will be in a passive position."
Alan thought about it for a long time and decided that this matter needed persuasion!
Boss Cha closed his eyes, leaned back, tilted his head back, waited for a long time, suddenly opened his eyes and stared at Alan and said, "I have made up my mind, you don't have to persuade me anymore."
"No... Your Highness, you can't be impulsive. If the Queen finds out..."
Seeing that Boss Cha was stubborn, Alan had no choice but to bring someone else up. Other people wouldn't work, but as long as he brought the Queen out, it would definitely work!
Sure enough, after hearing Alan's repeated persuasion, Boss Cha's face flashed with a conflicted look, but then strangely, a hint of tenderness flashed across his face, and finally he spoke again: "It's decided, you go and make the arrangements."
"This... Your Highness!"
"Okay... I still have to make a call, you go ahead and do your work."
Boss Cha was about to get angry, but seeing Alan's sincere face, he couldn't really get angry with Alan, so he could only think of a reason to drive Alan away.
For this kind of thing, as long as he has made a decision, he is now in India, not in Britain!
It’s no use bringing anyone up, he’s the biggest here now!
"this……"
Alan looked at Boss Cha and ordered him to leave, his face full of confusion.
