Chapter 777
Bangbang..., a few knocks sounded, and the thick office door was opened. Rachel, wearing luxurious fur, walked in. Behind her was the guard who had no time to stop and inform, and was panicked.
There was no female assistant in the office who was not wearing clothes and had no stool to sit on Boss. David Lawrence, who was busy handling official business, looked at his wife who was walking in in surprise, "Dear, it's great to see you in the early morning."
"Yes, since I broke in and disturbed you and other women the last time, I didn't want to step into your office." Rachel looked at the office window. It was just dawning.
David Lawrence must have worked all night, and from the perspective of diligence, he is an energetic qualified ruler. This man can stand out from many ambitious families in the end of the world, and his ability and will are the best choices.
"Do you want a cup of coffee? The best coffee beans from Jamaica are luxury goods that have been out of stock for half a year. I have to say that the Aurora Legion has sent a lot of good goods." David Lawrence stood up and personally made a pot of coffee for his wife.
The hot coffee has a spirit-inspiring aroma. Westerners often have coffee addiction. Without coffee, it can even make people feel depressed. Rachel took off her fur coat and hung it up. When she reached out to take the coffee, she saw that her husband actually turned into a pot of fresh milk.
"Where did you get the milk?"
"I am one of the giants of the Brotherhood of Steel. What others can't get doesn't mean I can't get either. Being able to drink milk now is a symbol of identity and status."
Seeing her husband proudly pouring half a cup of fresh milk into her coffee, Rachel, who was already surprised, seemed to know each other for the first time. She couldn't help but compare David Lawrence with Victor Hugo.
The former has completely become a superior, and his life and affairs have completely separated from the lower class; while the latter, Rachel has seen Victor Hugo wear a shabby and clean leather jacket and eat with others in the public canteen of the Legion.
In terms of temperament, both of them are outstandingly charming, bold, tenacious, and decisive. They never retreat in the face of difficulties, attracting a large number of heroes and talents around them.
David Lawrence has a strong grasp of strength. He likes to plan a lot in his work, is good at integrating the forces of the enemy and us with many contradictions, and even does not hesitate to make simple things complicated and profit from them.
Victor Hugo's trump card was significantly smaller, so he had to improve his administrative efficiency, cut the mess quickly, and promote his will by highly strengthening the authority in his hands.
Two completely different men, completely different styles of behavior, but they are both rare and great commanders. Rachel suddenly had an idea in her heart if these two people collided, who would win?
Seeing his wife staring at him in a daze, David Lawrence was happy. Even if he could have ten beautiful girls with a few fingers, he still felt that his wife was the most beautiful woman in the world. "Dear, how about coffee?"
"Oh..." Rachel came back from her trance, picked up the cup and took a sip, and said, "I heard that you have terminated the deal with the 'Aurora Legion'?"
"No, no, no..." David Lawrence quickly denied, "I didn't want to terminate the transaction. I just felt that some specific details still need to be discussed. We and the Aurora Legion also need to know each other well."
"To be clear, don't fool me like others." Rachel's tone became cold.
David Lawrence smiled awkwardly. He took out a report from his office and selected the key points and said: "Victor Hugo is a talent, and the 'Aurora Legion' is also a very important force in the entire North American region.
In addition to the Brotherhood of Steel and the "Incredible", the only third force in North America, the Caribbean and South America that can be discussed as powerful is the "Aurora Legion". They even formed a certain hegemony in the Caribbean, forcing others to obey their orders.
But this kind of hegemony is quite fragile. Based on the various information sent by the intelligence personnel stationed in Havana, I can say with certainty that the boy Victor Hugo has very limited strength.
First of all, Cuba's industry is too bad, and the infrastructure is completely impossible to compare with us. Neither the port nor the road can match Victor's ambitions. Their refinery's production capacity is extremely ridiculous, because their lack of fuel cannot even drive the tanks that they finally got.
Secondly, the ‘Aurora Legion’ lacks a high-quality population. I know that Victor just launched a rectification campaign, but this, in addition to improving his prestige and command ability again, cannot change the situation where his subordinates are full of waste.
In the end, the entire Caribbean and even South America were a mess, and Victor could not find any place to greatly improve his strength. He had no other way out except to join us, which was also the reason why they actively exported goods to us.
As for me, there are four large oil refineries in my hands, and one is even intact. I have also controlled more than ten nuclear power plants, six of which withstood the nuclear bomb attack, and two have begun to regenerate power.
I just need to renovate the oil pipeline and power grid, and the residents' social living standards will be greatly improved immediately. I also have a large area of farmland with complete facilities, and I also have steel plants, shipyards, chemical plants, and fertilizer plants.
I am rebuilding the logistics system and financial system, and I have hundreds of thousands of professional talents. As long as I give me another half a year, I can firmly control all the forces within 500 kilometers of New York in half a year. Who can compete with me at that time?"
David Lawrence pulled open a map of the United States on the wall of the office. He pointed to many circled places around New York, and said with great ambition: "The manufacturing industry in these places is a reflection of my strength, and I will be able to complete the integration of the overall situation soon."
"So you think that cooperation with the Aurora Legion is not important?" After listening to her husband's long speech, Rachel already understood what David Lawrence meant. "Aren't you worried that they would ask others to cooperate?"
"No, the 'Aurora Legion' is still very important. There are still many people within the Brotherhood who threaten my status. I still long for those 30,000 mutants. But I can't tolerate Victor. Hugo stretched his hand too long.
I have the confidence to cut off Victor Hugo's connection with other northern forces, and I want him to know that I am the king of the north and that he can't do anything in North America without me.
The ‘Aurora Legion’ should start some planting industries in the Caribbean islands and South America, transport some vegetables and fruits to sell them to us, or make some cheap and practical low-end industrial products. They should provide us with agricultural and industrial raw materials, or produce some clothes and shoes.
And I should sell some gasoline, diesel, cars, computers, airplanes, etc. to Victor. As long as he makes me feel good, I won’t make things difficult for him. Because I have any doubts about him or even crushing advantages."
