Chapter 120 Godmother Appears
A dozen young ladies were in Charlotte's room, some sitting or standing, some with tears in their eyes, some with red eyes, some holding hands, some leaning against each other quietly, looking like a celebratory oil painting called "The Victory of Women".
This was a joy they could not show to others, so they all came to Charlotte tacitly to find people who shared the same pain and share their feelings at the moment.
When Luo Jiu pushed the door open, everyone looked over. Elizabeth stood up and looked at Charlotte: "Who is..."
Charlotte didn't know if she could introduce Luo Jiu and the others now. While she was thinking about the words, Luo Jiu smiled and said to Elizabeth, "You promised me that you would help me build a boat."
Elizabeth's eyes lit up, "You...you are..."
Luo Jiu smiled and nodded.
The people here have talked to Luo Jiu in the church and they recognize her voice.
Although it was the first time they met, they were comrades who had gone through major tests together. They were strangers but close.
Everyone was stunned, astonished, happy, and grateful. They followed the traditional etiquette of the British Empire, stepped back half a step, lifted their wide skirts, leaned forward, and tacitly addressed Luo Jiu as "godmother."
From then on, Luo Jiu and others became guests of honor in many noble houses.
These noble ladies thus escaped the predicament of being forced to depend on others and lived a different life.
They will also become the most loyal supporters of Luo Jiu and others, forming an indestructible alliance of interests with the girls.
Three days later, the famous Marienplatz in the foggy city was crowded with people.
Pink flags were flying everywhere, and many women took to the streets today to witness this historic moment together.
The elderly Chief Justice served as the representative and read out the latest laws on the stage.
The law of limited inheritance was officially abolished today.
From then on, women had equal inheritance rights as men.
The new election law was enacted, and women, like men, have the right to participate in politics.
Every time he said a word, the audience burst into cheers. By the end, many people around him had lost their voices, but they wiped their tears and continued to cheer.
Luo Jiu stood in the crowd, looking at the deafening shouts of these ladies who usually spoke in soft voices, and his eyes became red.
After the meeting, the crowd gradually left. The four were saying goodbye to Charlotte, Elizabeth and others when they suddenly heard a commotion.
A man suddenly rushed to the side of the road, stopped the Chief Justice's car, and shouted loudly: "No need to change the inheritance law, I found the murderer!"
Luo Jiu frowned, "Isn't this Bol?"
Zhong Jialing said: "Why doesn't he give up? Is he crazy?"
At this time, the driver leaned out and told Bol to get out of the way, but Bol waved his hands excitedly, "I really found the murderer, four Chinese, the same four Chinese who were in the police station that day, I have evidence!"
Charlotte asked nervously, "Do you want to go first?"
Elizabeth also said hurriedly: "Although it will take a while for a large ship to be built, there are many cruise ships that can carry hundreds of people. Why not send you out to hide now? Our family has a private island in Maldai, which is very safe."
Luo Jiu smiled and waved his hands, "Don't panic, I want to see what evidence he has."
Luo Jiu was very curious. The assassination was not carried out by the four of them. Where did Boll find the evidence?
At this moment, some passers-by gathered there, and the Chief Justice also recognized Boll and got out of the car with a serious expression.
Boll excitedly called out to the reporters at the scene, "Tap me, tap me, I'll show you the evidence."
Is there really evidence? Feng Qi got excited and pushed through the crowd to stand at the front.
Boll opened his backpack, rummaged around in it for a while, then held up his hands in the air to show everyone, "Look, this is the photo of them committing the crime!"
Seeing him holding up the air, Feng Qi almost laughed out loud. The onlookers were silent. The chief justice frowned and shook his head, telling his assistant, "Send him to the hospital for treatment."
Feng Qi told this story to everyone as a joke, and Cheng Yaoyao quickly spread her hands, "Don't blame me. That pill wouldn't have made him so crazy. He must have driven himself completely crazy."
Everybody laughed. Today was a really good day. Even the sky in the foggy city, which was usually cloudy all year round, was clear and intoxicating.
Luo Jiu took the three of them to various major banks, opened a bunch of accounts, and prepared to receive the money.
She had carefully studied the financial history of the East and the West, and was ready to enter the stock market and invest in the budding business giants.
Nowadays, they only need to invest a small amount of money to become the original shareholder of giant companies in various fields. In the near future, they will be able to control 30% of the world's wealth.
He is rich enough to rival a country, and he can rival many countries.
The primitive accumulation of capital begins now.
Creek Farm soon became a mysterious place with a legendary color, from nobles to common people, people of all skin colors, people from all countries, arms dealers, and investors frequently came and went, all because there was a young godmother here who could solve all problems.
Zhong Jialing has seen the movie "The Godfather". She said that the Godfather always held a cat in his arms when he talked to people, and she insisted that the Godmother must also hold a cat in her arms to look stylish.
So she spent a lot of money to buy an Ashla cat, which is known as the king of cats.
The Ashura cat combines the genes of leopard cat, domestic cat and serval, and looks very much like a leopard.
When I first bought it, it was only the size of a palm, very small.
My grandma was afraid that she wouldn't be able to keep the baby alive, so she suggested giving it a more solid name, like Stone, Lei Zi, or Pillar.
Cheng Yaoyao: "Isn't it inappropriate to call such a beautiful little female cat Zhuzi?"
Luo Jiu suddenly had an idea, "Then let's give him two names. The full name is Qiao Qiao, Qiao as in Qiaomu, which means solid. The nickname is Zhuzi, which means down-to-earth."
That day, Luo Jiu met a woman in the study while holding Zhuzi.
The other party cried intermittently about his tragic experience, "When I was 19 years old, I met a man named Yi Dali and had a child with him, but he never showed up again after the child was born.
I sent my child to a monastery and worked as a maid in Count Stavi's house for 22 years. My daughter was very obedient, she was admitted to the law school and graduated with the first place. She said that if she became a lawyer, I could retire and not have to work so hard.
But no law firm was willing to hire her. They always said that women are not suitable to be lawyers because pregnancy and childbirth would affect the progress of the case. It was no use my daughter swore not to have children in her life.
Oh my God, we are at our wits' end. Dean Ruby asked me to come to you. Dear Godmother, can you help us?"
Luo Jiu listened to her statement patiently and looked at her daughter's excellent transcript. "She is so outstanding, she should be admitted to the best law firm."
The woman wiped her tears and said, "But the reality is that no law firm is willing to hire her, even in the most remote towns."
Luo Jiu said: "She went to the wrong place. She should go to the most inclusive, equal, and best-paid law firm, Prius."
The woman was stunned for a moment, "I'm sorry, Godmother, I'm ignorant and have never heard of the name Prius."
Luo Jiu smiled and said, "It's not that you are ignorant, but the Preuss Office is still in preparation and will not be officially operational until a week later."
She picked up a pen and wrote a note. "Tell your daughter to take this to next door to find Count Charlotte. She is the boss of Prius and will welcome the top students of the Imperial Law School to join us."
The woman was overjoyed and left with many thanks.
Cheng Yaoyao followed in, "Sister Lu is back from China!"
Luo Jiu stood up excitedly, "Please come in."
