Chapter 23: Cold and cold beauty

"Huh?" A doubt flashed across Lei Xiaotian's face. Shen Zhenxin laughed and told the story of the morning lightning repairing Powell. After hearing this, Lei Xiaotian didn't say anything for a long time. Seeing his shocked expression, Shen Zhenxin laughed even happier. "How is it, you never dreamed that Powell would have such a day, right? You didn't see it. His nose was almost pissed today, hahaha..." "Happy!" Lei Xiaotian suddenly came to his senses, slapped the table suddenly, then tilted his head and poured a cup of spicy whiskey, and shouted loudly.

"Haha...yes, I was still worried about Lightning at that time, for fear that he would provoke Powell and cause him great trouble. Now I realize that people are simply fearless and don't take Powell seriously at all. Alas, even the US president has to give in to Powell three points, and it's not a big deal in front of Lightning. Lao Lei, this is the domineering spirit of our Chinese! I remembered that I tolerated Powell again and again and again, and even ignored the dignity of our Chinese, which really makes me ashamed!" Shen Zhenxin was also thinking about what Lei Xiaotian thought, and nodded with some resonance.

"But, after all, Powell is also a powerful American. I don't know how he will fight back after suffering such a great humiliation? It seems that we need to remind Mr. Lightning. What do you think?" Lei Xiaotian said. "I have already reminded him, but Lightning does not seem to have reminded me. But it is, in his eyes, Powell is just a loach and cannot cause much storm. Lao Lei, look, if Powell honestly admits defeat, it will be him who will suffer in the end. If he dares to do anything, he will suffer in the end. Let me wait and see~!" Shen Zhenxin said quietly with a sneer on the corner of his mouth.

Everyone was having a chat while eating, and the atmosphere was extremely harmonious and comfortable. Shen Zhen had already drunk a lot with Du Ziji at noon, and had another drink here. He was really drunk. He stood up shakingly, patted Lei Xiaotian on the shoulder, and said, "...Old Lei, Longquan wine matter... You should also take it to heart. Use your domestic relationship more often. If... we can have a relationship with Longquan Group, that person... must be you!" Lei Xiaotian

After burping, he stood up, hugged Shen Zhenxin's shoulder, and said with a smile, "Don't worry! Not to mention making money, I will work hard for the sake of your and my brothers' future happiness. Well, Du Ziji suddenly gave me such a big gift, I have to go back and take care of it, so I will go first... One step, bye." Lei Xiaotian raised his hand and turned around and walked out of the hotel. Not long after he left, Shen Zhenxin also withdrew with the staff of the embassy.

Just when Shen Zhenxin and Lei Xiaotian were drinking happily and eating happily, Powell sat in the office with a pale face, and the anger between his eyebrows was about to burn out. The staff of the US Embassy were all worried when they saw Powell's face, fearing that they would burn. What happened in the morning kept flashing in Powell's mind, and every time they flashed, Powell's anger became more intense. After so many years of rampant Saudi Arabia, Powell had never encountered such humiliation. Just when Powell was about to be unable to control the anger in his heart and was about to explode, the news Sec and him brought were like a fuse, which detonated all Powell's anger.

Like Chinese businessmen, American businessmen also have chambers of commerce, and Saike is the president of this chamber of commerce. Saike is just in his early forties this year, which is the golden stage of a man's life. At this time, Saike is full of confidence and charm. As a mature man, he exudes a strong charm to the women around him. He is suave, tall and handsome, with deep eyes sometimes shining like the sun, and sometimes affectionate like the bright moon. He is smart and has a successful career that is enviable. He is humorous and has a humor that makes women crazy. How many women can resist his charm when facing such a middle-aged man? There are only a few.

Every time Syke comes, she will tease Powell's handsome and coquettish female secretary Anna first, say a few American humor, making her laugh and alarm Powell. But Syke is not in this mood today, her brows are tightly frowned into a big bump, and her eyes are full of deep worries and anxiety. Facing the charming female secretary Anna, Syke is not even feeling to take a look. "Anna, hurry up, tell Ambassador Powell, just say I want to see him, right away!" Syke said to Anna anxiously.

Anna looked at him quietly, and did not inform him immediately, but said softly, "If I were you, I wouldn't have brought bad news to Ambassador Powell at this time." Syke was stunned and asked, "Mr. Ambassador is in a bad mood?" Anna nodded with a wry smile and said, "It should be quite bad!" Syke has been dealing with Powell for many years. She knows Powell's temper and can even scold people when she is in a good mood. If she is in a bad mood, no one can predict whether he will shoot and kill someone! Syke is a little hesitant, not sure if he should listen to Anna.

"What are you holding?" Just as Sake was hesitating, Anna suddenly pointed to the wrinkled document in his hand that was about to be pinched by him and asked curiously. Sake lowered his head and saw the document in his hand. He couldn't help but tighten his heart. Instead, he said firmly, "Even if the sky falls, I want to see the ambassador. Anna, go and inform me." Anna has a good impression of Sake. Which woman can't have a good impression of a successful man like Sake? Hearing Sake insisting on going in, he was a little worried for him and couldn't help but want to persuade him. However, Sake's anxious eyes were as flames, which made Anna finally sigh, and said nothing, turned around and walked into Powell's office.

"No! I don't see anyone now, let him go back wherever he comes from! Get out!" About half a minute later, a heart-wrenching roar sounded in Powell's office, which made Sake's scalp numb. Before Powell's roar landed, Anna stumbled and was pushed out with a look of panic and aggrieved look. Then the door of Powell's office was closed heavily. Sake stepped forward a few steps forward, hugged the shaking Anna, and said with guilt, "I'm sorry, my dear, I've made you wronged!" Sake didn't say it, but this made Anna feel even more aggrieved, her eyes suddenly turned red, and tears rolled in her eyes, which looked very distressing.

Syke smiled, gently wiped away the tears from Anna's eyes, and said softly, "On the way I came, I saw a new jewelry store open. Why don't I take you to see it tomorrow?" Syke has always been generous to women, especially beautiful women. When Anna heard this, she burst into tears and temporarily forgot the grievances she had just now. "Syke, you saw it too. Powell is almost crazy now, you still..." Anna carefully leaned into Syke's ear and said. Syke took a long breath, shook her head heavily, and said in a deep voice, "Even if he is crazy, I want to see him too!" After that, she pushed Anna out of her arms, tidied up her suit, tightened her tie, and walked towards Powell's office with big strides. When Anna wanted to call him, Syke had already pushed open the door.

Powell was like an angry lion king, breathing heavily, and was restlessly paced back and forth in the spacious office. Seeing Seke breaking in, Powell's anger found the outlet of catharsis, staring at Seke with scarlet eyes, and roared at him with all his strength, "Seke, are you deaf? I don't want to see anyone, get out immediately!" Seke didn't say anything, but just looked at Powell quietly, and calmed down when he shouted that he was tired. Seke really knew Powell too much. Sure enough, Powell shouted for a while, a little weak, and stopped coughing loudly.

"Mr. Ambassador, I don't know why you are so angry, but the person who should be angry now is me, all of our American businessmen in Saudi Arabia!" Saike said as he handed the documents in front of Powell and said in a deep voice, "Look, this is a joint notice from the Saudi Business Headquarters and the Tax Headquarters. From today on, the tax rate of all our American businessmen will increase by 20%. Not only that, the Saudi government has also restricted and even canceled preferential policies for us on many negative sides. Since the announcement was issued, we American businessmen have no longer been aristocrats in Saudi Arabia. All the privileges we bought with a large handful of dollars have been wiped out!"

Although Powell's character is arrogant and his temper is very irritable, he is still very concerned about work. As the US ambassador to Saudi Arabia, one of Powell's jobs is to protect all the interests of American businessmen in Saudi Arabia. After hearing Saike's words, Powell hurriedly took the documents in Saike and read them carefully. "It's outrageous!" After reading it, Powell tore the notice to pieces on the spot and shouted angrily, "Are the Saudis crazy? They actually put their hands into our pockets! Bastard!" "The Ambassador

Sir, it’s not only that. While we received this joint notice, the Chinese also received a copy. I don’t think you would have dreamed that the content of that announcement is completely opposite to the one in our hands. In other words, the Saudi government deprived us of all our privileges and then handed it over to the Chinese. In the past, we American businessmen occupied an irresistible dominance in Saudi Arabia, but with these two announcements, our era is about to end, and next, it will be the era for Chinese businessmen to rule the Saudi economy!”

"Nonsense! In Saudi Arabia, whether it is politics or economy, our United States is the only master. Our era will never end. I want the Chinese to rush back to my hometown! Anna, take my suit!" Powell shouted outside the door. Anna hurriedly walked in with an ironed suit and put it in for Powell. "Mr. Ambassador, where are you going?" Seke asked urgently. Powell snorted coldly and gritted his teeth and said, "I want to point at Duziki's nose to ask him if he had taken the wrong medicine! Let him understand who is the person he should respect!" "I will go too!" Seke hurriedly followed Powell.

Du Ziji was quite satisfied with the lunch he had with Shen Zhenxin. Of course, what he was satisfied with was not the delicious Chinese food, but the result was the result. Not only did he establish a good relationship with Shen Zhenxin, he made up for his past indifference to Shen Zhenxin, paving the way for him to formally send a delegation to China to negotiate, but what made him even more excited was his encounter with Longquan wine. Until this time, the long, congested and undispersed wine fragrance echoed in his mouth. This charming fragrance not only had a strong attraction to men, but seemed to be no exception to women, because when he kissed his lover, his sexy lover suddenly looked like a little female cat in heat, showing unprecedented passion. Drunk and sex made Du Ziji really tired, and he lay on the big bed specially designed for him in the office, and never thought about getting up.

As the head of a country, Du Ziji could not say that he had a lot of things to do, but he was still busy. From time to time, all kinds of people came to his office, and they were blocked by his lover and secretary. However, some people could block it, while others might not be able to stop it. Powell was one of the people who could not stop it. If it were normal, Powell might have waited for a while, but at this time Powell was almost completely swallowed by anger, and he couldn't wait and didn't want to wait. So, Du Ziji's lover had to wake up Du Ziji who was sleeping like a child.

It is human nature to not like being forced to wake up from sleep, and Duziki, the president is no exception, so when he saw Powell and Sake, his face looked ugly, comparable to Duziki. Powell was used to Duziki's smiling face, and was a little uncomfortable with Duziki's cold face at this time, and coughed heavily. Duziki glanced at him casually, tidied up his somewhat messy clothes, pointed to the sofa opposite his desk, and said lightly, "Please sit, two!" Duziki frowned, snorted, and turned to sit on the sofa.

"Mr. Powell, you came here again for the misunderstanding between you and Ambassador Shen Zhenxin?" Du Ziji said helplessly, "I have told you that Chinese people are our friends like Americans. You are very embarrassed by this! It is better for everyone to turn big things into small things and small things into small things, just pretend that they have not happened before? It can be considered that Mr. Powell sold me a face."
