MTL - Treasure Hunt America-Chapter 1205 shameless politician

?Fortunately, these two bronze Buddhas were originally gifts prepared by Kate to explore the way. Since Ashley has already bit the hook, then two hundred yuan is two hundred yuan. As long as she swallows this fast fat, then Next, don't be afraid that she won't accept her manipulation.

As the saying goes, the mouth for eating people is short, and the hands for holding people are short. As long as she accepts her own gift, the next thing will unfold much easier.

"Well, since you have to insist, then I'm welcome."

Kate said to Ashley with a smile, and when she heard Kate agree, Ashley immediately took out her wallet, took out two hundred dollars in cash, and patted it in Kate's hand, for fear that she would regret it.

"Okay, now the things are yours, then I'll take you home. You didn't come by car, it's not so easy to go home with two bronze Buddhas, and it's not so good to call a taxi here. called."

Kate smiled and put the two hundred dollars into her purse, and then said to Ashley, and Ashley pretended again, and finally nodded in agreement with Kate to send her home.

Ashley's home lives in the Bay Area of ​​San Francisco. This is the most famous wealthy area in San Francisco. It is backed by the Rocky Mountains and faces the Pacific Ocean. The scenery is very good. There is such a set of sea view villas on the mountain here.

Ashley's home is located in the middle of the mountain, deep in the jungle. It covers a very large area. It is a three-storey villa with a large swimming pool in front of it and a basketball court.

However, it is obviously impossible for this old lady to play basketball. This basketball court is for her beloved son, but when her son grows up, he moves out of the villa and does not go home often.

And her husband, the senior director of Pan American Airlines, also flies around all year round because of his work, and is not often at home, so such a large mansion is usually only the old lady and the She lives with a golden retriever.

Kate drove the car directly into the parking lot in front of the villa, and then the two of them together removed the two heavy bronze Buddhas from the car and moved them directly into the living room of the villa, and were in a hurry. Under the command of Ashley, it was placed in the living room, and then it stopped.

"What would you like to drink? Kate, I have soda here, and whiskey, and beer. What do you like?"

After setting up the two bronze Buddhas, Ashley felt very satisfied. Looking at Kate, she became more and more satisfied. This woman has been close to her for many days, but she has never given her any good looks.

And always kept a certain distance from her deliberately, but today she did a beautiful job, Ashley decided to give him a chance.

Let's see what she wants from her. Anyway, she is taking advantage of others, and she should help others.

"Then have a glass of whiskey with ice, haha, is it a little early to drink at this time?"

Kate said to Ashley with a smile, and Ashley smiled slightly: "It's not early, dear, it's not early at all, the time is just right."

After speaking, she turned and went to the kitchen, and after a while she took out a bottle of pure Scottish malt whisky, and then took out an ice bucket, poured a glass for Kate and herself, and added two ice cubes.

Kate took the whisky, took a sip, and raised her glass like Ashley: "You're a real treat, Ashley."

"Haha, of course, I have been drinking this wine for many years. Although it is not famous, it has always tasted good."

"Yeah, I've had a lot of whisky in the past, but the smoky ones can do so well, you really have to say they're Scottish."

Kate complimented Ashley, and at this time Ashley put down the wine glass in his hand and stared at Kate for a while, until Kate felt a little hairy from her, then she laughed. .

"Haha, okay, Kate, let's not go around in circles. If you have anything to say, just say it. I know who you sent and what you want, so you can clearly express your boss's thoughts."

Ashley suddenly went straight to the point at this time, showing her means as a seasoned politician. Fortunately, Kate, as a police detective, has also experienced many big scenes, and she calmed down quickly at this time. Others, it is very likely that the old fox's surprise attack will be messed up.

"Well, I won't go around in circles, Ashley, we all know that at the end of this month, there will be a McKinsey member in the California Legislature who will put forward a proposal to build a high-speed rail from San Francisco to Los Angeles, and this proposal is promoted by the governor and in the state legislature. There is an 80 to 90 percent chance that it will pass, and what I want to make sure now is that when this bill is passed in the state legislature, there will be no obstacles on the Department of Environmental Protection's side."

Kate looked at Ashley and said seriously, and at this time Ashley was staring at Kate's eyes very seriously. After a while, she laughed again.

"That's of course. Why should I oppose this proposal? It's a good thing for California. Of course, I will promote the implementation of this project in California. This is a good thing for California's employment growth rate."

Kate was stunned when she heard Ashley say this. Ashley agreed to her proposal so happily, she was really surprised.

Because in her impression, and the intelligence they collected, this Ashley was a staunch opponent of the high-speed rail project, and this guy was a very difficult person to deal with.

Once she decides to oppose this project, even if the governor puts pressure on her, it may not make her bow her head, and now she has agreed to her proposal so simply, there must be something tricky in it.

At this time, Ashley also saw Kate's surprise, and then laughed again: "Honey, do you think I will oppose this proposal?"

"That's right, before we came here, we had a certain understanding of you. As far as we know, you used to be a special opponent of this high-speed rail construction plan in California. Before this high-speed rail construction proposal, in fact, California also has There was a similar proposal to build a railroad project from San Francisco to Los Angeles, and that project also passed the resolution of the state legislature, but it ended up in the hands of your Department of Environmental Protection, so we felt at the beginning. , you will be the main blocker of this issue."

As a seasoned police detective, Kate knows there's no need to go round with an old fritter politician like Ashley, if she treats you as a friend, don't waste your time, she'll be able to tell what she can say Let me tell you, if she decides to keep something secret, even if you are her best friend, she won't tell you.

So at this time and this Ashley, don't go around in circles. If you have any questions, she will tell you what she is willing to tell you, and she will definitely say it.

"Haha, the world is changing, everything will change, including me. I really hated this kind of railway project before, because this kind of railway project is completely useless to the United States and California. , The most important thing is that such a railway project will affect the operation of my husband's airline. But now it is different..."

Ashley paused when he said this, and then laughed very playfully.

"Oh? So now, are you no longer afraid that this high-speed rail project will affect the normal operation of your husband's airline?"

Kate was very surprised by Ashley's confession. She didn't expect that she would tell herself so bluntly that she had rejected the project because she was afraid that it would affect his husband's income.

What about now? Why would she agree to it again?

"Haha, the reason is also very simple, because recently my son just happened to be friends with a guy named Chris Furrell. They plan to jointly set up a company and plan to introduce the technology of high-speed railway locomotives from abroad in the future, and then apply it to On this high-speed rail line in California..."

Ashley's frankness has already stunned Kate. These politicians are so shameless.

Kate used to know that ~www.novelbuddy.com~ these politicians don't have many good things, but now that she has really come into contact with these politicians, she only realizes that these politicians can blatantly play with interests and transfer them to such places. From this moment on, her confidence in the American system has begun to waver.

"You're surprised, aren't you? I know you must be shocked at this time. Why am I being so frank with you? Then I'll just talk to you. In fact, the reason why I'm telling you this is because, I know Who are you representing, you are in the same group with those guys, and the Furrell brothers are in the same group as you. I think when you go back, tell them especially which Furrell, I can pass your Proposal, agree to start the construction of the first high-speed rail in the United States in California, but the premise is that you must ensure that the technology introduction project of the locomotive must cooperate with my son, and this joint venture company must be settled in the future. In California, San Francisco, Los Angeles, or Sacramento will do. Anyway, this company must be established in California, and must not be built in other states. If you don't agree to this condition, hehe, you know, I have 10,000 ways to make your high-speed rail fail."

The old lady told Kate so much in one breath, and Kate was dumbfounded at this time. It seems that when the American people occupied Wall Street, they could only say that their vision was too narrow. Nothing more noble than the parasites on Wall Street. (To be continued.)
