Chapter 435 Negotiations
"What is our destination, the fort on the top of the mountain?"

"You are asking knowingly. If your memory is really good enough to remember those one or two girls, then you should also remember the place I mentioned before."

"Splendid Hotel?"

"Look, I still remember."

"Just wanted to make sure."

"I don't like saying the same thing twice. My father told me that if someone doesn't listen to you, you don't have to take it seriously."

"I may be deaf, I really didn't hear."

"The person Angers likes will not have too many shortcomings. Even if he has, it is impossible for him to be deaf."

"It seems that your tenderness can only be released by those who are older than you." After thinking about it, Lin Nian made a decision, pushed his chess piece, and then reached out to the edge of the chessboard.

But at the next moment, his outstretched hand paused, then slowly retracted and put it on his knee. He was about to press the timer, but found that there was no timer at hand.

When he plays chess with another person, he will always use the international standard rules as the line, and the method of judging the outcome is also very rigorous, so he will press the timer after every move. Sometimes the action becomes a habit and it is difficult to correct it. After thinking about the chess game, I can't help but reach out and do the same.

Elizabeth raised her hand and landed on the chessboard. After a moment of silence, she withdrew her hand again. She raised her head and glanced at Lin Nian who was staring at the chessboard with a blank expression. She stretched out her hand again and put it on her "Emperor". , I got a sentence from the boy opposite:

"'Sometimes you have to give up and you have to give up, so that you can end up with what is left.' This sentence was told to me by a friend of mine. The exact words are different, but the meaning is roughly the same."

"There are only a few things left, the last dignity?" Elizabeth pushed the emperor down on the chessboard and admitted defeat, "You played well, who taught you chess?"

"My friend said she learned it in Hawaii and taught me in school." Lin Nian said.

"A teacher who can teach students who win international championships must have been international champions." Elizabeth obviously did not believe Lin Nian's words.

"No wonder there is a chess board in this car." Lin Nian was not surprised that Elizabeth had an international champion as a teacher, and the identity of the other party was more than enough to host an international competition in person.

"Who taught you chess?" Elizabeth reset the pieces on her side, "Anatole or Kasparov?"

Lin Nian glanced at Elizabeth, he could hear a little discomfort from the other party's tone, even though it was very faint and deeply suppressed, but he still noticed it, because the other party repeated a sentence twice without even paying attention to himself.

It seems that she is an unexpectedly strong female school manager under the surface of her young age, but this is also reasonable. For a girl who is about to inherit the head of the family at this age, the daily study intensity and educational environment should be They are all the top in the world. This kind of person is born to despise everything. When he is suddenly defeated, he will feel extremely uncomfortable even in a game like chess.

"As I said, a friend taught me at school." Lin Nian said, "She taught me how to play chess for half a year."

"Kramnik, Anand, Bobby Fisher?" Elizabeth guessed two more names.

"There's no need to guess, her name didn't appear on the list of champions in international competitions." Lin Nian also reset his chess pieces, "If she really chooses to take the path of chess instead of Kassel Academy, then She should still be in the Globe race by now."

"It's really the students of Kassel College who teach you chess." Elizabeth looked up.

"As I said, if she participates in the competition, from the day she entered the chess circle, until today the champion will be her name until she dies." Lin Nian said lightly, "But now she has no chance gone."

Elizabeth remained silent, because Lin Nian's words contained many possibilities. As a school manager, she knew what kind of place Kassel College was, and what kind of missions did those young people who seemed to be students have in it. Finding ways to hold on to something you love again is a rare and common thing.

"A person can't be the best at everything, just like the person who taught me that I can never win at chess." Lin Nian pushed the chess piece again, and Elizabeth also followed the chess quickly. Their time was running out , so this game will be fast.

"I thought the person Ange recommended would be a young lion who was prouder than himself." Elizabeth moved the pawn, "I was ready to hate you before I met you, because young people are always arrogant .”

"You are young too."

"So I am also arrogant. If I don't, I will suffer a lot at the school board."

"If you are not proud, you will be provoked and despised?"

"It's far more than that. Showing weakness in the jungle means being culled, and you will be swallowed to the bone."

"Can you disclose what the topic of this school board meeting is?"

"Most of it is about you, your present and your future."

"my future?"

"With one Angers, there is a future Angers, the trustees don't want to repeat the same mistakes, they want a future they can control, they will oppress you, they will terrorize you, and then they will promise you Something to dream about."

"Dream stuff?"

"No one will be tempted by a particularly generous promise. As for what it is, it is not appropriate to talk about it now. You will see it at the meeting, and that is one of the most important topics."

"Do you think I will be tempted by this?"

"It's hard to say. Under that promise, no mixed race will be unmoved. Although I am willing to believe in Angers' vision, I still find it hard to believe you. It is reasonable for the Laurent family to go through a tedious process to choose a future partner. The selection and test, who you really are, what purpose you have, only Angers knows, and you know, we know nothing about you, it is difficult to build trust."

The number of chess pieces on the table decreased one by one, and the two played very quickly, making a judgment on the situation with almost no need to think.

They should have been like this a long time ago, starting when they got in the car, they should have said what they should have said.

"Then if you turn your face before the school board gives the promise."

"You are not Angers, you will not turn your back on you, you have your own ties, and every school manager knows what your ties are, including me."

"They will eat me?"

"Not necessarily, if they don't have to, they won't touch your bottom line, above which you still have enough room to maneuver freely."

"The convener of this meeting is the school manager of the Gattuso family. How much do you know about Frost Gattuso?"

"The spokesperson of the Gattuso family, one of the temporary school managers, has a lot of power even in the presbytery."

"Temporary school manager?"

"The real school manager is Pompeii Gattuso. Frost is just Pompeii's younger brother, the acting head of the Gattuso family. Because Pompeii Gattuso is wandering all day long, he acts as the agent for Gattuso all the year round. everything about the house.”

"Does he have a lot of voice in the school board?"

"The Gattuso family is the first to donate funds to the Kassel Academy every year, and the Laurent family is the second."

"I heard that you control the largest syndicate group in Europe, and you have no reason."

Elisabeth interrupted: "I have never said that the wealth of the Laurent family is inferior to that of the Gattuso family."

"I understand. Will you stand by my side at the next school board meeting?" Lin Nian nodded.

"I will stand on the side of Angers. This is an inseparable relationship of interests. I will always stand on the opposite side of the Gattuso family. But you also need your own position. No one will take sides clearly, so don't expect I would say too much for you."

"If there is a ranking list with the right to speak in the school board, where is the Laurent family?"

"No less than fourth, no more than second."

"The upper-middle level has a great voice."

"You are the person that Angers likes. Sooner or later, you will stand on stage on behalf of Angers, but I personally suggest that before you have the capital to stand in front of the stage and the trust you can hand over to me, I hope you don't It is too extravagant to expect too much in advance from the Laurent family."

"This is a matter of principle in the transaction, and I understand the truth. But before that, I have to know the weight of the allies and the limit of the help you can provide."

"for example?"

"I heard that the Laurent family is the real leader of the entire European mining industry, so if you are asked to support a mining company across the ocean."

"You know it's not help at all, and that's not what you really want."

"Then I heard that the Laurent family has a large controlling stake in the Chernobyl prison."

"Ange told you."

"Yes."

"It turns out that the person who taught you chess was Mandy Gonzalez, a traitor purged by party rules." Elizabeth said suddenly.

Then the next moment her king is eaten and the game is lost.

Lin Nian looked up at her, and slowly put the chess piece in his hand beside the chessboard.

"She will also be one of the topics of this meeting." Elizabeth withdrew her hand and put it on her knee.

"What else does the school board want from her?" Lin Nian asked.

"What do you think?" Elizabeth asked calmly, looking at Lin Nian in front of her.

At this time, the car door opened from the outside behind her, revealing the marble snow. The driver stood outside the door and lightly held the door frame with his hand, waiting for her to get out of the car.

"This is the first time you have met the powerful people of the Secret Party." Elizabeth looked directly at Lin Nian and said, "Your performance means that the Laurent family will invest in you in the future."

"." It was Lin Nian who answered the girl without saying a word. He watched the girl walk out of the car door quietly, and the car door opened from the outside behind him.

Angers stood by the car and looked at him who bent over and walked out of the car and said with a smile, "How was the chat?"

Lin Nian looked at Ange and nodded slightly, without saying anything, the other side also nodded and pressed the switch to automatically close the door, reached out to support his back, left the parking lot and walked towards the building standing in the snow in the distance.
