Twenty Seven Years

  Chapter 348 Future itinerary

   "Is there a specific plan? I am very interested in alliances and cooperation, but I also hope to have a deeper understanding first." Jeffrey was the first to clearly express his intention to cooperate.

"Of course, I have already prepared seven proposals for alliance and cooperation." Winston distributed the proposals he brought to the seven factory owners. "We will give everyone enough time to think about it. We welcome your comments at any time.”

  The seven factory owners flipped through the pages.

  Villac, Winston, and Andre waited patiently.

   After a while, Rodney, the owner of the Rodney Weaving Factory, asked tentatively, "Can I reply in a few days?"

"Yes, we will give you a week to consider and discuss improvement plans with us. After one week, at 11:59pm on June 5th, we will close the applications for alliance and cooperation ’ said Winston.

   "That is to say, if you don't choose to join the alliance for cooperation within these seven days, can you not join again?" Someone asked.

"At least I won't be able to join for quite a while." Winston didn't say too much, "Because matters such as alliances and cooperation need to be carefully formulated, every time a new member joins, the original plan will be more or less disrupted. , we can’t always be on the road of adjustment.”

   Actually Winston's explanation is only one of the reasons for doing so.

   What really determines their reason for giving a one-week time limit is human frailty.

If you can join the alliance for cooperation at any time, there is a great possibility that some of the seven factory owners will be delayed and wait for half a month, a month, or even longer to see if the others are doing well. will come in.

  Winston didn't want to wait for them, or if someone didn't come in immediately, it would also cause trouble for the promotion.

   So they decided to give a time limit and let it pass. Only in this way will those vacillating factory owners get rid of their bad habits. As long as one factory takes the lead, everyone will fight for the second.

   "It's getting late today, can we go back first?" Wilfred planned to have a private discussion with several factory owners before making a final decision.

   "Yes, we have prepared seven cars in front of the factory gate. You can take the car back to the mansion safely at any time. You are welcome to continue to communicate and understand the situation." Andre kept smiling.

  During this meeting, the representatives of Nak Weaving Factory behaved calmly from the beginning to the end, as if they just said what they wanted to say, and they didn't force anything.

  This feeling of giving everyone freedom made everyone more interested and aroused their cooperation intentions.

"Then I'll go back first. Today's incident was too sudden. I'm worried that my family members will be worried. Regarding the alliance and cooperation, I will make a special trip tomorrow to have a good discussion with Mr. Andre and Mr. Winston of the Nak Weaving Factory." Let's discuss it." A factory owner who was arrested before he could say hello to his family was worried about what might happen to his family, so he decided to go first.

   "It's a bit late today, and I'll come over tomorrow and have a good chat with you guys." Jeffrey, who made it clear that he is interested in alliances and cooperation, also decided to have a good talk tomorrow.

  With these two at the beginning, the other five people either wanted to chat with each other in private, or they were afraid that their family members would worry, so they also got up and left.

  Andre and Winston warmly and politely sent the seven people to the gate of the factory, and watched the seven cars leave one after another.

   "How many of them do you think are willing to form an alliance with us?" Andre stood at the door with his hands in his pockets, blowing the wind.

   "I thought you were going to ask them if anyone would form an alliance with us." Winston laughed.

   "I'm very optimistic." Andre really didn't worry too much about Verac and Winston's work. This group of people is more reliable than the other. If they can't do it, then no one can do it.

  Sometimes Andre would be very emotional, what would happen if all the people in the government were replaced by comrades like the Equality Council?

   Fortunately, don't worry about this, they are working hard to achieve it.

   "They will all cooperate with us." Winston said with certainty.

   "Why are you so sure?"

   "It depends on the interests." Winston's eyes were sharp. "I minimized the risk of their participation. A failure has no cost, and success can make more money. No one can refuse."

   "Benefits... always feel boring to listen to." Andre exhaled, with mixed feelings.

  Winston's ability to adapt, and what he can see are much stronger than Andre: "Do you think that interests are not what we are after, and it is a bit awkward to use interests to unite everyone?"

"It can't be said that interests are not what we are after. Interests are too broad, but I do feel a little awkward, I can't put it into words." It is difficult for Andre to describe his inner feelings. He knows that these actions are right, but he do not like.

   "It's normal." Winston opened his mouth repeatedly, but he didn't know what to say or what to say, "...Let's go back, Verak and the others are probably still waiting for us."

   "Yes." Andre looked up at the stars in the night sky.

  When the two returned to the factory building, Verac and Benedict were dismantling the temporary rooms and instruments of torture with the comrades at the substation.

   "Everyone is sent away?" Verak packed up the bluffing instruments.

   "Yes." Winston stepped forward to help, "I have several appointments for an interview tomorrow."

   "They probably want to talk to each other in private tonight." Verak guessed the plan of the factory owners.

Winston also thought of this, but he was not worried: "You can talk about it as you want. This will not stop them, and I am also looking forward to what new things they can talk about. What can they give us? The more troubles we have, the better we can polish this model at the very beginning and reduce the obstacles we encounter in future promotion.”

  "This is a good attitude. We are not afraid of any challenge. What cannot defeat us will only make us stronger." Verac admired Winston for this.

  Winston was never afraid of trouble, never afraid of facing difficulties, he could see the other side of these things.

   "This can be regarded as solving a lot of problems together." Andre also helped to dismantle the small room.

"Yeah..." Verak breathed a sigh of relief, his body tensed all day was washed away by waves of exhaustion, "At the same time, the scale of the experiment has also been expanded. How high the cloth factory can go depends on how well the promotion is done."

   "I have a strong hunch that what we have done in the past two months will be recorded in history." Winston half-jokingly said.

  Verak deliberately widened his eyes and said with a surprised smile: "Wouldn't it be that we will be remembered by many people?"

   "Do you want to be remembered?" Winston asked with a grin.

   "Anyway, I want to be remembered!" Benedict said first.

   "I..." This is another question that Verak has never thought about before, "I really don't know whether it is better to be remembered or not."

   "What? After doing so much, you'd rather be forgotten?" Benedict couldn't understand Verac's entanglement.

"I'm not going for this. In contrast, I hope that those who died will be remembered. Someone will always remember them and what they have done. They seem to be there forever." Verak thought It is those who died.

   Benedict felt that there was no need to be so horny: "It's the new world we created together, so everyone can remember it."

"also."

   "Why are you so reluctant..."

   "It's all right, the more you talk, the more vigorous you are, who knows what will happen in the future?" Andre reluctantly terminated their fantasy discussion.

   "Yes, things went well today, thanks to everyone, hurry up and pack up and go back to rest." Verak sped up a lot.

   "Shouldn't we have a meeting later?" Winston felt that they needed a brief meeting.

Verak had been worrying for a whole day today, and he was under a lot of psychological pressure. Now that the heavy burden was taken away, he suddenly couldn't hold on anymore: "Not for now, please call and report to Mr. Keating and Boyin for the specific situation. We'll talk about the rest tomorrow."

   This was the first time Winston saw Veraker rejecting his work arrangement. In the past, no matter how late or tired he was, whenever he said that he needed to have a meeting or deal with work, Veraker would always nod and stand side by side with him.

  He realized that Veraker was really tired. If he wasn't extremely tired, he wouldn't have said something like this: "Okay, I'll just go and talk to them later."

"Um."

   Half an hour later, the room was dismantled and cleaned, and the instruments of torture were put away.

  Verak didn't stay long, didn't say goodbye to everyone, and went back to the room with strength and fell on the bed.

   "What's wrong with him? Tired?" Benedict was a little puzzled, "It seems that he didn't do much heavy work today, could he be sick..."

   "I'm just tired, but more mentally tired." Winston could feel the pressure of Veraker to some extent, "Do you know what will happen if there is a little unexpected situation today?"

   "This..." Benedict thought of something related to his mission. If something happened when he caught the factory owner, it would lead to a series of problems, "It will be very troublesome..."

   "So, as the person in charge, he has been worrying about this all the time. How can he not be tired after stretching all day." Winston pinched the bridge of his nose, "Go and rest, too."

"And you?"

   "Comrade Andre and I will summarize the situation and report the situation to Chairman Boyne, Comrade Keating, and Comrade Mellen."

   "Okay, then I'll go to rest first, call me if you need anything."

   "Hmm." Winston watched Benedict leave.

  Andrei yawned, lit a cigarette to refresh himself: "Would you like one?"

   "No, let's go."

  —

  May 30th, early morning

  Verak woke up.

   This time he slept for eight or nine hours in a row, which was the longest he had slept in recently.

   "Hmm..." Stretched and moaned, Verac dressed and washed and went out, went to the cafeteria to get a pie and ate it as he walked.

  In the office, Winston and Andre, who worked until the early morning, had already started a new day of work.

   "Good morning, where's Andre?" When he arrived at the office, Verac just finished eating the pie, went in and poured a glass of water and drank it down.

   "He's in the building. How are you resting?"

"It's good, I think you are all too, don't be so tired every day, treat yourself from time to time, get more sleep, you will be more energetic and easier to work." Verac sat on the sofa beside him, "Yesterday and Bo Because, Mr. Keating, have they reported it?"

   "I've said it all. Comrade Keating didn't say anything, but President Boyne praised you a lot." Winston shared the file, took off his glasses and wiped them while chatting with Veraker.

  Verak became humble again: "We discussed this together, and it's not my fault alone."

   "One more thing." Winston chuckled lightly, not taking these trivial matters to heart. "President Boyne said that he would send two people over so that you can get in touch with them more."

   "Send someone? Do you want me to contact them more?" Verak didn't understand what this was for, and it didn't sound like it was assisting work anyway.

"It's the revolutionaries from Bash. They came here to ask for help at first, but after the contact, President Boin and the others decided to absorb all these revolutionaries into the Bash sub-station, unite their forces, and take advantage of Bash to start a war." strengthen development."

   "The revolutionaries in Bash...then why did they send me to get in touch more?" Verak's doubts deepened.

Winston put the glasses back on after cleaning: "President Boyne told you that once the Equality Council is done with the next big thing, I will arrange for you to go outside to be responsible for awakening the people of other countries and leading revolutions around the world." to fight?"

   "Did you say that it has something to do with this matter?"

"Bash is a very good opportunity. This group of revolutionaries will be merged with the sub-station, and the strength will be greatly enhanced. And Bash will soon go to war with Wellland, and his attention will be diverted. Besides, it is far away from us, and we need to There are powerful forces continuing to influence..."

"In short, I plan to arrange for me to go to Bash to take charge of the work there. Now I am sending two Bash revolutionaries here to let me know the situation there in advance, and then I will learn Bash language and so on. .” At this point, Verak had already understood Boyin’s intentions.

  "...Basically, you need to open up the situation in Bash first, and then connect revolutionaries from all over the world." Winston nodded.

  Verak didn't speak again.

   "You... don't want to?" Winston noticed that Veraker was not looking forward to it.

   "No." Verak answered very simply, and then added after a period of silence, "...Maybe I'm a little bit reluctant, I will go out this trip for at least several years."

   "Reluctance for what? Us?"

"Hmm... It feels like I'm back to the days when I was fighting alone. Of course, it's not. There are so many revolutionaries working together. Anyway... It's nothing. I will do what Boyin arranges. I am my recognition." Verak wanted to squeeze out a smile, and wanted to make himself look forward to the next trip, but after working hard for a long time, he just shook his head helplessly.
