Go back in time and be a chaebol

Chapter 94 Don’t worship me (first update, please collect)
  Once again in Washington.

When he walked out of the airport, he saw Lautrey standing on the side of the road. Because he arrived in a hurry, there was no bodyguard or anyone to pick him up, so he temporarily hired a strong woman to be the driver.

"Hello, Mr. Li, where are we going? To a hotel, or?"

In fact, Lautrey was very surprised when he received Li Yi'an's call. Although he had a lot of business dealings with him as the liaison between the defense supply company and him, the two of them rarely contacted each other directly, and most of the time they communicated through their secretary. connect.

But it seems different this time.

Well, but since you are a driver, you must always be a competent driver.

"Um,"

After thinking for a moment, Li Yian looked at the girl in front of him and asked.

"Do you have any plans for the evening?"

"what?"

The girl couldn't help but panic, and even looked at the man nervously. Just when she was about to say something, she heard him say something again.

"I'm going to a friend's house for dinner in the evening. It's not convenient for me to go there alone. If you don't have any arrangements, just go with me."

Afterwards, Li Yian closed his eyes and thought about this sudden invitation.

The reason why I rushed to Washington was because I received an invitation.

The person who invited him was none other than Truman.

What was the reason that made Truman so eager to invite himself to Washington?
  The answer is very simple - Roosevelt is anxious!

After Dewey's constant stabbing, American public opinion was full of accusations against Roosevelt.

Although Roosevelt was trying every possible means to make amends, but... the Americans were very angry. After all, many Americans were bleeding in the Pacific. As a result, the fucking White House didn't care about the Japanese!

The co-authors all care about Europe!

This aroused the painful memory of the betrayal of the United States in the last war!
  Therefore, all walks of life are now criticizing Roosevelt, and the situation is getting worse, even beyond Li Yi'an's imagination.

Roosevelt's "Europe First" policy fell into a situation that was criticized by many people. Even many people in his own party came out to criticize him.

Dewey's stabbing was so fatal that Roosevelt became anxious!

Roosevelt was anxious, so Truman found himself!
  Just like planned!
  Two months ago, Roosevelt announced his vice presidential candidate, Senator Truman. This decision surprised everyone. After all, there were too many people more suitable than him.

As the person involved, Truman was already mentally prepared, but he was even more eager to meet Li Yi'an.

Waiting and waiting, Truman just waited for a congratulatory call from Li Yian.

That's it.

In fact, this is just a means, no need to be too enthusiastic, just congratulations.

Of course the person involved, Truman, didn't know that all this was just the spiritual master's method.

"If possible, I would like to entertain you at home tonight, my friend."

Recalling Truman's phone call, Li Yian's mouth lit up.

Invite him to Washington.

Be a guest!

This means that in Truman's eyes, Li Yi'an has been promoted from sponsor to friend, and what does he need?
  It is the support of friends.

But does the support of friends need to be so urgent?
  ……

"Li, maybe you don't know yet. Now, in Washington, almost everyone is waiting to get to know you, a rich Eastern tycoon. After all, no one will refuse to be friends with a rich man. If they know that you, a big man If the rich man comes to my place right after he gets off the plane, he will probably be jealous of me." When Truman finished speaking, there was a burst of laughter in the restaurant, and Mrs. Truman laughed.

"Harry, let them be jealous. The friendship between friends is something they cannot be jealous of."

Then Mrs. Truman turned her eyes to Laurette and said.

"My dear, Harry and Lee are very good friends. They have known each other for a long time."

Laurette nodded with a confused look. No matter what, she never thought that when Li Yi'an said "dining at a friend's house", he would be with the vice presidential candidate, and in his home.

Is there anything so scary?
  I'm just a driver!

Laurette couldn't help but said in her heart that she was just the driver. Because Li Yi'an came to Washington by plane, he arranged for her to pick him up at the airport. He said he wanted to eat with a friend and asked her if it was convenient for him to come together, because here Taking a taxi is inconvenient.

Who would have thought that the friend he called a friend was actually the Vice President!

my Lord!
  And now Mrs. Truman looked at her as if...she was his girlfriend.

God knows, I am just an ordinary employee, and I work part-time, and I still need to study!
  Who wants such a playboy as a boyfriend?
  She was on pins and needles after eating this meal. For a teenage girl, if you bring her to the Vice President's house for dinner, isn't this a blow to you?
  Is this kind of dinner party something a young girl should participate in?
  Sensing Laurette's uneasiness, Mrs. Truman said.

"Laurette, let's go to the living room and listen to music. Leave this place to the gentlemen."

Truman smiled.

"Elizabeth, take care of Miss Lautrey, and Li and I will go smoke a cigarette in the study."

Everything seems to be natural. After laughing and chatting at the dinner table, we always have to return to the topic. After entering the study, Truman took out a cigar from the cigarette case on the desk, handed it to Li Yian, and said.

"Churchill sent this to me after the president declared me a candidate for president."

This simple sentence revealed too much information. The core information was that Churchill only gave him cigars after he became the vice presidential candidate. Such a friend, of course...is no longer a friend.

"Harry, I believe this is just the beginning."

As he rotated the cigar and lit the end of the cigar with a lighter, Li Yian said,

"I said, one day, you will be president, my friend, and I believe it!"

"plum"

Truman took a puff of his cigar and said.

"In my opinion, you are like a magician. Perhaps many people in China feel the same way. With hundreds of millions of dollars in arms, no one has ever been so generous, even to their own country."

"Harry, I picked up those arms."

As soon as Truman put the cigar in his mouth, he was instantly stunned. He held the cigar blankly and looked at the other party with a confused expression.

"Did you really pick it up?"

Truman's tone was filled with suspicion. How could he not be suspicious?

If you tell me this, absolutely no one will believe it.

"I went to Italy..."

After blowing out a smoke ring, Li Yian told the story of how he picked up the munitions in as calm a tone as possible, but Truman was dumbfounded and couldn't believe his ears, so that he couldn't speak for a long time in the end.

Seeing this, Li Yian shrugged his shoulders and said.

"Don't worship me, it's just a legend."
