Restarting the myth.

Chapter 160: Mustache: Son of the Beach
May 10, London Airport.

A group of people dressed as business elites walked into the terminal hall, fifteen of them, both men and women.

The team leader Nicholas wore gold-rimmed glasses, had an elegant temperament, and his suit and leather shoes were meticulously done.

They are the assistants arranged by Auston for Wayne. They do not hold high positions in the company and are generally around 30 years old. They have potential but have not made it.

According to Auston, Wayne can regard these people as the initial team, and if he has other ideas, he can also organize a team himself.

After waiting for half an hour, the group finally met the central figure of the trip.

Wayne walked into the waiting hall with his personal secretary Mona, and met Nicholas and his party in front of the VIP exclusive channel.

"Mr. Wayne, I'm Nicholas, your assistant to Luzerburg, and this is your team." Nicholas extended his hand respectfully, taking Wayne very seriously.

Good news, according to the grapevine, this trip might be doomed to fail, but the central figure is suspected to be the big boss's illegitimate son, and it is his first time going abroad to discuss business, so it is of great significance.

Seeing with my own eyes Wayne Nicholas dispelled his doubts. Rumors were too unreliable. What did he mean by suspected illegitimate child? It was clearly one.

The eyebrows, the eyes, and the thick black hair show that they are definitely his biological child.

Here's my chance to get ahead!

Nicholas felt a little shaky under his feet, and he straightened his back quickly. Now was not the time to be proud. He had to prove to his new boss that he had the ability to complete the task and the ability to manage a team.

"Hello, Mr. Nicholas, I know nothing about business, so I'm sorry to trouble you and everyone on this trip." Wayne held Nicholas' hand and smiled slightly, neither distant nor intimate.

The standard Auston smile, which he learned at a business party.

"You're joking. If even you know nothing about business, what's the difference between us who claim to be elites and illiterate people?" Nicholas shook his head repeatedly. Wayne was not only good at business, but also an expert at it. The family he chose when he was born was the best proof of this.

He was the one who really didn't know how to do business. Because of one wrong choice, he wasted thirty-five years.

Wayne smiled dumbly: "Too modest, Nicholas, you are a top student who graduated from Jianhe University."

"That's the school's recognition. I haven't been recognized by the society yet. I still have a lot to learn from you."

The two of them praised each other for their business. Wayne looked down on them and admired them, while Nicholas belittled himself and praised his boss. They got along very well.

Afterwards, under the introduction of Nicholas, Wayne shook hands and got to know the other members of the team one by one.

"This is Ms. Mona, my personal secretary. If you can't contact me, you can report everything to her." Wayne introduced Mona to everyone.

Because of the contract, Wayne trusts Mona very much, and the latter will not betray him, ranking second only to the butler and the dog.

Nicholas was particularly envious when he noticed Wayne's trust in Mona. It was great to have a promotion tool, as one could get promoted without doing anything.

If he had, he would have been able to come and go freely in the boss's office.

It is not too late now. He also has business talent and believes that he can impress the new boss with his talent and eat his meal while standing.

"Nicholas, tell me about your proposal. Sit next to me on the plane. I want to see how your report is prepared."

"Mr. Wayne, our partner company in Frank is..."

Nicholas was well prepared and not afraid of surprise tests. He logically and meticulously analyzed his own strengths and weaknesses, which were not limited to the business world, but also the border environment where Luzern was sandwiched between the two superpowers of Frank and Prussia.

As he was speaking, several men in black dressed as bodyguards came over.

Nicholas thought he was Wayne's bodyguard, and Wayne thought he was the bodyguard arranged by Auston for the team, and neither of them took it seriously.

It was not until the few people got closer and closer without slowing down that Mona stepped forward and stood in front of Wayne with a cold face.

Nicholas looked at her in surprise. It turned out that Miss Mona had many functions and was more than just a secretary.

Several men in black stopped, one of them with a mustache glared at Wayne fiercely, then walked away with a very arrogant step.

Wayne: (_)
It's you again?
After the failure of trains and cruise ships, this time they are changing to airplanes, right?
You know what, he is quite ambitious!
"Boss, do you know him?"

Mona asked in a low voice. It was obvious that the little mustache boy was full of malice towards his master. It was not an accidental encounter, but he was coming for him on purpose.

"A fateful relationship..."

Wayne shook his head. After talking with Lily on the cruise ship, he roughly guessed the identity of the man with a mustache.

The contact person is here!
As a Frankish spy, Wayne's activities were limited to London. If he left, he had to report and state the reason. If he left without reason, he would be warned, so the man with a mustache came forward.

If you take a train, stop the train; if you take a cruise ship, stop the cruise ship; if you take a plane, stop the plane...

The mustache isn't easy either.

Wayne's impression of Frank's intelligence agency changed drastically, admitting that the other party's intelligence capabilities were very strong, and their spies were all over Lundan. Not to mention driving himself, every time he left Lundan in a vehicle that required registration, the other party would show up at the first time.

If nothing unexpected happens, Frank's intelligence agency has infiltrated London's transportation network.

But there is one thing Wayne still hasn't figured out. Cruise ships and planes require advance registration, so it's understandable that they were caught, but train tickets are too outrageous.

He left Lundan on a whim that night, and Veronica paid for the train ticket on the spot. He was still blocked by the mustache guy...

Why are you surrendering? With your intelligence capabilities and execution efficiency, you can kill Sandezi.

Just to create a meme and make everyone laugh?

"Boss, do you want to teach him a lesson? The way he looks at you really annoys me." Mona was very unhappy.

She didn't know what the grudge was between Wayne and Little Moustache, she only knew that Wayne could not be wrong, and the one who was wrong could only be Little Moustache.

"Don't bother with him... Well, that's good."

Wayne was planning to just go over there, but after thinking for a while, he said with a sense of malice, "Mona, go find the airport police. I know that group of people. The leader, a guy with a mustache, is a robber and a felon who escaped from prison twice. If the police check, they will definitely find his wanted warrant."

Mona nodded and walked quickly towards the airport police room.

"Nicholas, keep talking. I'm listening."

Ten minutes later, Mona returned. Twenty minutes later, there was a commotion in the corner of the waiting hall, and several men in black were escorted away by police officers.

Mouth is fragrant.

Wayne didn't hear it clearly, he just heard the other party shouting "Son of the Beach", which should be praising freedom.

The beach represents freedom, and the son of the beach is the son of freedom. To praise someone for having a free soul, we can call him the son of the beach. There is nothing wrong with that.

……

The group boarded the private plane through the VIP channel.

These days, the concept of private jets is not yet popular, mainly because airlines do not produce high-end private jets, and without comparison, they cannot arouse the consumption desire of the wealthy.

Several companies controlled by the Landau Group do have private jets for business use. By mentioning Austin's name, you can apply for a flight route on the same day.

However, the environment on passenger planes is very average. Limited by the current industrial level, it is not only bumpy, but also noisy and smelly. There is no comfort at all.

Wayne suspected that the reason why Lao Deng didn't want to go abroad was ninety-nine percent related to the poor flight attendant environment.

On the plane, Nicholas sat opposite Wayne as requested and talked about some difficulties of the trip.

First of all, in terms of quotation, Landau Group's partner Murphy Mining Company does not have an advantage.

If we can negotiate an order, we can then seek cooperation with other mining companies with this large order, lower the price to purchase, and make a profit from the difference, which can be reduced a lot in the later stage. The key is the quotation in the early stage, which cannot be reduced.

In contrast, the Boswell family’s partners had no such concerns, kept the price very low, and easily passed the first two rounds.

But the Boswell family could not succeed either. Several Prussian mining companies had geographical advantages and could save a lot of costs in transportation alone. They would definitely advance to the final round of bidding.

Luxembourg's geographical location is terrible. It is sandwiched between two major military powers. It is insufficient in size and has poor military strength.

With scarce natural resources, a small market and a high degree of external economic dependence, it dared not offend Frank, let alone Prussia.

At the four-nation summit in September, even a fool could see that the Prussian soldiers were strong, had money and guns, and only they could walk sideways, and everyone else had to give way.

"This bidding not only needs to impress Albert Steel Company, but also convince the Luzern authorities and even the current Grand Duke Charlotte."

Nicholas analyzed: "But this is not enough. Convincing the authorities can only prevent Luzerbourg from wavering. The final result will depend on the offer."

Wayne listened with a frown. He had already gone through the general documents and was at a loss as to what to do. So he specifically asked Auston if he had any good way to break the deadlock.

That day, Auston had gauze wrapped around his head. Wayne knew that he was trying to gain sympathy by playing the victim, so he didn't ask about his injuries.

Auston also didn't mention that he saw Wayne from a high vantage point while flying. He flew farther, and in the end he was the only one who lost face by mocking Wayne.

Back to the point, Auston had no way to break the impasse. The Landau family had limited political influence in Luzerburg and could not control the bidding. Failure was inevitable. He just wanted Wayne to taste the bitterness of failure.

It's hard to say whether there is any personal grudge involved, but according to Austin, this is necessary training.

Wayne knew that there was actually a way out. If the Landau family and the Boswell family joined forces, they could all make money together. With the Luzerburg authorities pretending to be dead, there was a 50% chance that they would win the order by relying on their price advantage.

Steelmaking requires coal, and cheap and high-quality coal can reduce costs. Merchants are profit-driven. With this reason, Luzern made it difficult for Prussian mining companies to get angry even if they failed.

"Boswell family..."

Wayne's eyelids twitched, and he suspected that Lao Deng did it on purpose.

First tell him that the Boswell family wants to steal the meat from his bowl, and then assign him a task that is bound to fail. If he doesn't want to fail, he must learn to be patient and cooperate with the Boswell family.

"Then I would rather fail. As long as I can hurt others without hurting myself, there's nothing wrong with that."

Wayne muttered softly, unable to stand the bad smell in the air, and asked Mona, the body fragrance bag, to come closer.

"Mr. Wayne, are you planning to cooperate with Boswell Mining Company?" Nicholas's gold-rimmed glasses lit up. This was indeed a good idea.

"Let's talk about it later. They are business competitors. We can't change our overall strategy just for a small profit." Wayne shook his head slightly. Aston overestimated him. He was so magnanimous that he would rather not make any profit than let the Boswell family lose money.

Airport, Luzern, Grand Duchy of Luxembourg.

The group left the airport with their luggage and boarded the long-awaited special car. Thankfully, God was very kind to them and they were not delayed at the airport for three days.

Luxembourg is a small country with a rich population and a suitable climate. In addition to being a pocket-sized kingdom, it is also known as the Country of a Thousand Castles because of the many ancient castles in its territory.

The capital city of Luzerne is divided into two by the Grand Canyon. It has magnificent scenery and many tourist attractions worth visiting.

The army also likes to check in here. Every time there is a war, this place will be occupied by the enemy at the speed of light.

The question is, they are weak and cannot resist. Simply raising hands and surrendering can guarantee the safety of the people.

By the way, the flag of Luxembourg is very similar to the one next door. Both are tricolor flags, cut along the dotted line, and the middle is white.

The special car stopped at the Capital Hotel, and Wayne met Frank's partner, who booked a floor to accommodate the team and also specially prepared a presidential suite of this era.

It is said to be a partner, but in fact it is a company invested overseas by the Landau family. The original purpose was to plunder the resources of other countries. As time went by, the Franks became immoral and the nature of the company gradually deviated from the original intention.

Austin recovered his costs and didn't care about it. Every chess piece was useful, and even if it was disobedient, he could still mobilize the opponent with benefits.

For example, this time, both Frank and Prussia wanted to make money from Luxembourg. If they made money, the other party would not, which was equivalent to winning twice in one business deal.

In the current environment, capitalists must have national boundaries, otherwise if they are attacked from the other side, they will not be able to protect their own factories.

Back to the topic, Wayne met with his partners, who tried their best to bring together several friendly businesses. They represented the interests of Frank and would not make any money as long as they could drive Prussia away.

Wayne felt a headache when he heard that the list of friendly competitors included the Boswell family.

"Let's talk about it tomorrow. I just got off the plane and my head is still a little dizzy."

Wayne did not agree on the spot. He said goodbye to his partner and returned to the presidential suite alone. Before he closed the door, he saw Mona walking in with her luggage.

"What are you doing here?"

"Boss, this suite has more than one bedroom, and I'll live here too." Mona looked aggrieved. This was the arrangement, and what could she do? She couldn't just sleep in the corridor.

If you hadn't been laughing, I would have believed it.

"Pick your own room, don't harass me at night, and don't fight with me for the shower."

Wayne tightened his collar and weighed the military strength. If the opponent launched a blitzkrieg, his country was strong and had the ability to drag it into a protracted war.

When winter came and the enemy's morale was greatly reduced, he launched a counterattack, and the charge horn could be blown all the way to the enemy's capital.

It became difficult to fight after that.

As we all know, the street fighting around the capital has always been tough.

When the enemy is fighting a desperate battle with no way to retreat, they will often fight to the death and only seek to die together with their enemies.

"Mona, has the Pope's emissary been contacted?"

Wayne simply packed his luggage, checked the time, and went downstairs to taste the local specialties.

It is said that the food in Luxembourg is good, it is Franconian cuisine!
"The code has been released and we will meet tomorrow night." Mona followed Wayne and whispered the code.

The other side has made all the preparations and is just waiting to give the angel a surprise when we meet tomorrow night.

When the two entered the restaurant, they saw a team heading towards them. It was a very strange team, with more than 20 men and women of all ages.

Wayne ignored the man opposite him. He was from Windsor, and if he paid attention to the man, he would be misunderstood by the other party.

All I saw was the team leader, who was graceful and elegant, with a black veil covering half of her face below her nose. Her eyes were as clear as water, and she was absolutely beautiful even with only half of her face showing.

After the group of people passed by, Wayne stopped and looked back.

The view is blocked.

"Mona, what are you doing?"

"Boss, I'm hungry."

"If you're hungry, go find something to eat. Why are you looking for me..."

Wayne rolled his eyes and raised his chin at the departing group: "Is that them?"

“No, they are not staying at this hotel.”
