"Go pick it up!" On the top of the No. 4 air defense tower (there are seven air defense towers, the two in Hamburg are No. 4 and No. 5), when Josie threw a baseball, the four big dogs around him also followed.
It was the four St. Bernards that Josie bought from Uncle Randolph when he was in Austria.
There are four dogs, three males and one female. Josie is a bad namer, so she gave them names from Monday to Thursday.
During the two months when Josie was away, the four dogs were raised by Ophelia in Austria, so when Ophelia came to Germany, she also brought the four dogs with her.
Although the four dogs are only four months old now, as super-large dog breeds, these four are already bigger than adult golden retrievers, and their daily activities are astonishing.
For this reason, not only did Qiao Xi have to arrange for someone to take four little ones...no, four big ones downstairs for a walk every day, but he also deliberately repaired the top floor and rooftop of the No. 4 turret he bought as his own residence.
In order to prevent the four guys from feeling depressed due to the small space.
The seven air defense towers built by Germany are called towers, but they are actually square buildings with a length of 70 meters and a width of 70 meters. After the bunkers on the roof are demolished and leveled, and then guardrails are enclosed, it becomes a huge playground with a total area of
It is also smaller than the football fields stipulated by FIFA in later generations.
If replaced by basketball courts, it would be equivalent to 11.
So Josie and her four dogs were playing baseball on the roof of the building. As long as Josie didn't throw them around, there would be no problem at all.
"Boss, the telegram from the fleet is that they are expected to enter the port in one hour!" Just as Qiao Xi and the four furry children were running happily, sweating profusely, Ophelia went upstairs.
Top, reporting on Qiao Xihui.
"We're finally here. You go and notify Vito and the others. I'm going to take a shower!" Josie nodded after hearing this, comforted the four big furry kids, handed them over to the servants standing by, and got off.
Upstairs.
Half an hour later, a convoy set off and rushed to the port.
When they arrived at the port, only ten minutes later, they saw a mighty fleet appearing at the mouth of the Elbe River in the distance.
However, although the fleet of hundreds of transport ships and cruise ships is spectacular, it is really not a problem for the Port of Hamburg, which ranks first in Germany and second in Europe. The largest port is Rotterdam, which was only taken over by the two Belgian ports in 2022.
Home merged port beyond.
Although it was also bombed, after being occupied by the US military, it became the first target of repair by the US military logistics department, using hundreds of thousands of prisoners of war as labor force. Although it has not been restored to the level before the destruction, normal use is
No problem at all.
Coupled with military control, except for American ships, the port does not allow ships from other countries to enter, so there is no need to worry about reception capacity and order issues.
However, the terminal where Qiao Xi was located was not a cargo terminal but a passenger terminal, so he did not need to worry about cargo issues.
What he is waiting for here is Huw Jones, the president of Roxon Group.
As the current second-ranked person on the board of directors and the person who controls the Roxon Group, the second largest conglomerate in the United States, Josie, who can only be considered a newcomer to the board of directors, still needs to give the other party some face.
And in the long run, there is no direct conflict of interest between Josie and the Roxon Group, nor is there any personal grudge like with Calvin. It is not a bad thing to have more contact with each other.
Soon, as a luxury cruise ship docked, Huw Jones took the lead in walking down the VIP aisle with a young girl in his arms.
"Welcome to Germany, my friend, how are you? Did you have a comfortable journey?" Josie walked up to greet Ophelia.
"Overall it's not bad, but the scope of action is a little small. Although the Atlantic Ocean is beautiful, you will get tired of it if you see it too much!" Huw Jones smiled and shook Josie's hand.
"That's just right. Although Hamburg is still being rebuilt, as long as you don't look at the ruins, the overall scenery is still good. By the way, this is Ophelia Sarkistan, one of my assistants in Europe. Excuse me.
If you need anything, you can send someone to tell her!" Josie introduced to Huw Jones.
"It turns out to be Ms. Sarkistan, very happy to meet you!" After hearing Josie's introduction, Huw Jones glanced at Ophelia's chest subconsciously - although Ophelia's figure was very explosive,
However, his attention was not on this, but on an inconspicuous-looking brooch on the other person's chest.
This is the mark of the middle-level cadres of Hydra. Behind such a brooch, there will be a Hydra mark that is almost imperceptible to the naked eye.
So when Huw Jones saw the pin, he knew that the other person was one of his own, and he shook hands with the other person enthusiastically.
Although Ophelia is obviously Josie's person, as a local snake in Europe, it does not prevent Huw Jones from establishing a good relationship with the other party to facilitate his actions.
"Okay, this is not the place to talk. I have prepared a place for you to stay. Trust me, you will definitely like it!" After the greetings, Josie warmly invited Hugh Jones to get in the car. As for the others, naturally
It's up to Ophelia to make arrangements.
The residence that Josie prepared for Hugh Jones was another air defense tower in Building 5, and the treatment was the same as Josie's. The entire top floor had been cleaned up and repaired for the use of Hugh Jones and his entourage.
As for the expenses... they are all deducted from the council's funds anyway.
As one of the top bosses on the council, no one can argue against spending more money on Huw Jones.
"Oh, this kind of residence is beyond my expectation. It's great. Thank you Josie!" After Josie took Huw Jones to visit, Huw Jones immediately fell in love with this residence.
.
After all, as long as you are a man, no one will dislike this kind of war fortress-like building. Moreover, after the renovation, the comfort here is no worse than those of luxury houses.
What's more important is the sense of security.
"Haha, you're welcome, we are partners!" Qiao Xi smiled slightly, as long as the other party is satisfied.
Hugh Jones came to Europe, to put it bluntly, to be a supervisor.
What Qiao Xi fears most is that the other party will cause trouble for him.
But now it seems that the other party does not have this intention, which is a good thing for Qiao Xi.
In the following period, Huw Jones did exactly what Josie expected. In addition to making normal inquiries about the Council's various investment progress in Europe, he also just traveled around and flirted with girls.
After seeing this, Qiao Xi also engaged in various business constructions with peace of mind, using the funds and channels of the council to contribute to his own business.
But in the end, Josie kept things simple.
It is true that Huw Jones did not interfere with Josie's industrial arrangement, but this does not mean that he is not interested in other things.
"Boss, something happened!" That night, Josie and Daenerys were completing a deal, and they were really chatting, when they heard Ophelia knocking on the study door.
"What's going on, you're in such a panic?" Josie apologized to Daenerys, closed the trading system, opened the door to the study, and said with some displeasure.
"I'm sorry, Master, but the matter is urgent. Something happened to Huw Jones!" Ophelia whispered. When there were only two of them together, she would directly call Josie her master. Gradually, Josie got used to it.
kind of title.
"Hugh Jones? What's wrong with him?" Josie frowned upon hearing this.
"He, a group of his subordinates and a company of soldiers have disappeared collectively. According to the information given by the military, it is probably related to vampires!" Ophelia said helplessly.
"Vampire? Hasn't the military been investigating this matter? How did Huw Jones get involved with those things?" Hearing Ophelia's words, Josie's head suddenly jumped.
Nimahu Jones's status on the council is too high. If something happens to him in Europe, Josh, the half-landowner, will definitely bear the main responsibility.
Maybe the other old men on the council will put this responsibility on Qiao Xi, or even kick him out of the council directly.
Although Qiao Xi was not afraid, he did not want to directly stand on the opposite side of the council because of this trivial matter.
But the most urgent task now is to figure out what happened!
"I can't help this matter. After all, Huw Jones has his own connections in the military. According to the information I got, he heard rumors about vampires from his friends in the military, and then he became interested.
, and even relied on his own connections to personally participate in the military's investigation operations - this time, he and his people followed a battalion of soldiers to investigate an abandoned town near the Rhine Camp Women's Camp.
She disappeared at that time." Ophelia said this matter with a look of helplessness on her face.
In terms of status, Ophelia is just Josie's subordinate and has no control over Hugh Jones, the smuggler who is Josie's equal.
In terms of connections, as the top capitalist in the United States, Hugh Jones's connections in the military are no worse than Josh's. At least in the American-occupied Germany, his right to speak is much higher than Ophelia's.
Therefore, Ophelia had no way of asking what Huw Jones wanted to do. The most she could do was arrange for an eyeliner to keep an eye on him, and she even had to be careful not to let the other party discover him.
Hearing what Ophelia said, Josie could only nod her head. She really couldn't be blamed for this. She was able to get the news about Huw Jones's accident as soon as possible. It could be said that she had done her duty.
"I understand. Notify Vito and the action team that everyone should be given the bestiality medicine, and also bring the equipment from the underground warehouse with them. We will set off immediately!" After thinking for a moment, Josie gave the order.
Order.
No matter what, Huw Jones and Josie must be saved. Even if the other party is really dead, the body must be found and an explanation must be given to the council.
