Chapter 1525 I am passionate about charity
The value of marriage alliance is unquestionable. It has never decreased, but has become increasingly important.
It is not simply about marrying off a daughter, but involves various political and economic interest games and is full of complexity.
There have been too many marriages between foreign countries in history. The most influential one was the marriage between Princess Wencheng and Songtsen Gampo. Her dowry mainly consisted of various crop seeds, medicinal herbs, doctors, craftsmen, etc.
These things promoted the economic development of Tubo, but at the same time they also provided a guarantee that Tubo would not invade the Tang Dynasty, thus ensuring the stability of the early Tang Dynasty and that it only needed to deal with the Turks.
Songtsen Gampo certainly knew that Princess Wencheng was not a real princess at all, but just a daughter of the royal family, but he got what he wanted, so it didn't matter whether she was a princess or not.
Marriage alliances are not necessarily humiliating, but more of a foreign political tactic of the dynasty.
Now Lei Zhen has mastered this thing. Although he doesn't like it, the situation has forced him to this point. Even if he is unwilling, he has to resort to this last resort.
"this……"
The boss of Xiaobaifang hesitated. He never expected the other party to make this request. Although he had strong adaptability, he was caught off guard at this time.
"My idea isn't very mature. After all, I heard that Princess Wendy has decided to become a nun." Lei Zhen said with a wry smile, "So this may be a bit presumptuous. I just don't know why she wants to become a nun?"
Be a nun?
The boss of Xiaobaifang was stunned. He seemed to have never heard of this.
But no matter whether you have heard of it or not, what you need to do now is to politely refuse, and this is the perfect reason to use.
"Wendy has indeed decided to become a nun..."
"That's easy. I can have Princess Wendy serve in my palace. After all, I'm a red-robed bishop, and I can definitely help you take good care of your niece."
"I……"
It was not until this time that the boss of Xiaobaifang reacted and remembered that the myth in front of him was not just a myth, he was also the bishop of myth.
"Let's just leave it at that. We're all family." Lei Zhen said sincerely, "Big Brother's family affairs are my affairs. If you don't agree, then you're treating me like an outsider."
Now that things have come to this, what else can we do?
Speaker Sam, who was sitting diagonally opposite, smiled and helped the boss of the Little White House to answer.
"That's very thoughtful, but Wendy definitely can't become a nun. We have to make her give up the idea. She's still not over her failed marriage. If Brother Shenhua can really take care of her, that would be great."
"Isn't it appropriate?" The boss of the Xiaobaifang hesitated.
"It's suitable, very suitable." Speaker Sam said, "Besides, Wendy is already very curious about Brother Shenhua. After all, women like strong men."
"That depends on Wendy. I can't make the decision."
"I think it shouldn't be a big problem. Maybe we can organize a charity gala when we get back?"
“…”
Watching the two singing back and forth, Lei Zhen sneered in his heart: Keep pretending, you fucking keep pretending!
He didn't believe that the boss of Xiaobaifang couldn't react. All his expressions were just disguises. The moment the other party heard it, he had already made up his mind.
Now it's just acting. I can't agree too readily, but I can't refuse either.
Just like when a leader accepts a gift, he may refuse it verbally, but will he accept it? It all depends on how it is given, through whom it is given, and in what way.
It’s all art, it’s all about human nature.
"Brother Shenhua, there's a problem here. You and Wendy are in different circles." Speaker Sam said helplessly, "She's in the charity circle, so..."
"What a coincidence! I'm planning to set up a charity foundation. It would be great if Wendy could come and help me." Lei Zhen's face was full of surprise.
"Really? What kind of charitable foundation?"
"It's a department that the Security Committee will establish, covering various charities. I've actually wanted to set up such a charitable fund for a long time. After all, I love peace immensely."
"Directly affiliated institution?"
"Of course it's a direct agency."
“…”
Although the conversation seemed to be going smoothly, it was actually quite awkward.
Lei Zhen understood what the boss of the Little White House and Speaker Sam meant. They simply wanted Wendy to work at the Security Committee headquarters. Only then would they recognize the marriage.
Because the directly affiliated agency will work at the Security Committee headquarters, it means entering its core power area. Even if this charitable fund is not that important, the signal it sends is unusual.
As for other exchanges of interests, that will be a matter for the future.
"It's settled. Princess Wendy will help me manage the charity fund. To better take care of it, her office will be on the same floor as mine. Let me think about the specific location..."
It was very tiring to communicate with these two people. They refused to say anything directly, and were quite reserved like an Oriental. Lei Zhen even suspected that he was the pirate from the West.
"There's a vacant room diagonally across from my office. Princess Wendy can work across from me. I'll be there to take care of you anytime, no matter what your problems are. Is that okay with you, brother?"
"Of course, thank you very much, brother. Wendy is keen on charity..."
The marriage is done!
Although it does not involve marriage, as long as the eldest princess of the Little White House enters the Security Committee headquarters, the signal will be successfully released.
The boss of the Little White House also wants to continue. Even if he cannot serve in the next term due to his declining reputation, he has to let the Red Camp take over and not let the Green Camp get any advantage.
So what should be paid must be paid, and what should be done must be done.
"Brother Shenhua, there will be a charity gala in three days. You must attend then."
"I am passionate about charity. In the future, no matter what kind of charity gala you plan to hold, please inform me so that I can do my part for the charity."
“…”
What followed was a real good conversation, because they stopped talking about other things and started talking about the romantic things that men like, as well as various gossips.
For example, a 60-year-old female senior executive comes here three times a week, and every time she mentions a popular male star. When she leaves, she looks beaming, while the other person has to walk while holding the wall.
For example, when a powerful male boss arrives, he will ask for a few of the strongest men, have them dress up as barbarians, and chase and play with each other.
There are also couples who come together, sometimes playing on their own, sometimes playing with others, etc...
Eye-opening?
No!
Lei Zhen knew that this was just the tip of the iceberg. Whether it was gender or anything else, it was just part of the game. The core of this Sumet Island was definitely not like that.
Where can't the big guys go to have fun?
The reason why you have to come here to play is not because it is fun, but because you have special needs.
As the three of them were chatting and laughing, Jawaharlal came over.
"What's so happy?"
"Mr. Jawaharlal, you've come just in time. Myth Brother is eager to learn more about your kingdom. He's interested in many things."
"Of course, that's what I should do."
Jawaharlal smiled widely and began to take Lei Zhen on a deeper exploration of his island.
