"Scott, have you heard?"


    "What did you hear?"


    "Before tea, the president took the initiative to see Mr. Drake."


    "Well."


    "Well, is your reaction calm?"


    "Plain?"


    "This is a meeting on a whim! As Mr. President, if it were not on board, this could not have happened."


    "Well... What''s the result? What''s the result of the meeting?"


    "Screwed up."


    "Huh... Huh? Screwed up?"


    "Screwed up."


    "Which side?"


    "Probably... I don''t know. Mr. Hamilton said both sides screwed up."


    "So you want to tell me that the order is out?"


    "How is it possible... As long as there is no second shipyard in the United States that can produce war patrol, the order will not change and the conditions will not change."


    "Well."


    "Again? Your dullness doesn''t match your appearance at all. It''s as boring as casting pearls before swine!"


    "Thank you for your compliment."


    "That''s not at all... Forget it, where''s the budget I want?"


    "Wait a minute..."


    Karen stood up, walked from the neat workbench to the messy desk, searched through a pile of documents, and soon found the project budget, which was operated by Sharon and faraming and approved by Carmen, and handed it to miss Solomon.


    "If you have any questions, we''ll communicate directly here." he scratched his head depressed. "To be honest, I can understand the captain''s mood. The topic can only make progress when Lieutenant Smith is on board these days. Once he goes to command the escort fleet... In my opinion, the remaining two generals are only good at wasting time."


    "Mr. President and the two generals just hope to deepen the fetters between you and the United States as much as possible..." Miss Solomon said humbly. "They bear the burden and can only pursue a more reliable guarantee than trust. This is the instinct of politicians and are responsible for this country."


    "Political issues are beyond my disposal, not to mention their way is too clumsy“


    Karen scanned his workshop and suddenly found that the cabin was so chaotic that she couldn''t find a place for the lady to stay temporarily.


    "HMM... why don''t you go to Carmen''s? Or the cabin?"


    "The inner cabin is ready." Miss Solomon did not hesitate to choose Karen''s bedroom on the ship. "Their way may be poor, but that''s also because the United States can''t find something enough to hold Drake''s chamber of Commerce, and they don''t have many choices..."


    "In that case, please don''t blindly imitate the political means of a powerful country and learn to believe in the glory of human nature like a real weak country." Karen muttered, pushed open the cabin door and pointed to the clean inner room. "Please use the bed and coffee table freely, and I''ll send someone to drink at once. Also, that was the captain''s original words, which was said after the defense that day."


    "So early..." Miss Solomon was surprised. "If you could tell me earlier, I would try to dissuade the president."


    "That''s in vain."


    "Is it futile? I won''t know until I try! Scott, I''m going to report to the president when I go back."


    Karen didn''t respond in a hurry. She just stared at her and looked very tired.


    "Miss Solomon doesn''t seem to like thinking very much."


    "Sorry?"


    "Of course, I''m not questioning your intelligence. I mean, in addition to the economic problems of your job, you seem to prefer to do things on impulse."


    Miss Solomon felt offended: "Scott, I always thought you were a reliable gentleman..."


    Karen waved: "if you don''t agree... Why didn''t you object to this low-quality contact before?"


    Miss Solomon concluded in an instant.


    "Because... Because think tanks think this way is feasible. After all, Mr. Drake needs to rely on the United States for profit, and should not be dissatisfied with Frank Party A..."


    "Now, why do you insist on making suggestions to your president?"


    "That''s..." Solomon''s voice dropped several octaves. "Of course, it''s because the judgment of the think tank is obviously wrong. If it goes on like this, it may hurt our future cooperative relationship..."


    "Go with the flow, listen and believe..." Karen''s words were not finished. They reached Miss Solomon''s ears, and her brain immediately completed, "look, you really don''t like to use your brain".


    That sentence only existed in Miss Solomon''s fantasy, which made her tremble with anger: "do... I want to keep silent knowing that my employer is wrong!"


    The woman was in a hurry, and Karen was in a panic.


    He cherished the honest, considerate and responsible nature of animals. For so many years, he devoted himself to sailing. His experience with women was generally limited to the family affection of his family and the pure friendship of Carmen.


    What''s more, he is a serious Nordic. He was taught to keep a distance and reduce contact since childhood.


    Every Nordic has a well-known side of social fear. For Karen, this side is a woman who "has the possibility of development and the relationship has not been clarified".


    Delusion, speculation, vigilance, and necessary communication. He is very bad at dealing with this complex contact, and has never had the experience of comforting women.


    But today... It seems that I can''t escape


    He hardened his head and organized his words: "Miss Solomon... What, I don''t mean to blame you, nor do I have a blame position..."


    "But you do think my idea of advising the president is wrong!"


    "It''s not a question of right or wrong, but it''s unnecessary."


    "Why is it unnecessary? If we let the estrangement deepen..."


    "The limited communication is over, and nothing will deepen. In the next few days, even if the president and the captain talk again, I don''t think the conversation will be deeper than the weather."


    "How could..."


    Karen pulled his hair in embarrassment: "I don''t know much about political issues. In fact, as a technician, I''m not very proficient in commercial issues. You''re the expert in this field. But I know the captain."


    "Your understanding of him probably stays at a very high level. You think he knows both military, government, business and people, has means, patience, courage, and is vicious and selfish enough."


    "But in fact, he is probably the most impatient man on the varkiri. He has enough talent to see the problem, then choose the shortcut and compete for as many interests as possible in the shortest process."


    "In other words, his decision-making method has always been trade-offs, not perfection."


    "You said he broke up with the president, which shows that in his opinion, breaking up is the best result for the moment."


    "As you said, we see the benefits that Sino US Lijian can bring us, whether it''s the ship''s order or the revolving door plan behind it."


    "But on the other hand, the United States also needs us. Maritime group is the only shipyard that can build top-level war patrol. The hundred business association is the most financially powerful business group in America. We have a great influence on this force."


    "This is a question of who is more important to whom."


    "The reason why your country is constantly asking for more intuitive control is that your brain trust judges that you are more important to us. But if so, based on my understanding of the captain, he will simply meet your wishes and will not let the situation develop into a stalemate even at some cost."


    "Because of this, I believe that the current situation is that we are more important to you."


    "My ability can''t give you the process of reasoning to this conclusion, but since the captain and Carmen think so, this conclusion must be reliable."


    "The captain broke up unhappily with your president on this premise. Under this premise, he took the initiative through this conflict. Your country has no reason to give up our country, and we have no reason to give up your country."


    "If my guess is right, the atmosphere on the ship will be better until Boston, so that the well water of both sides will not invade the river. We look forward to taking time to dilute this unpleasant memory."


    "Well... Miss Solomon, do you understand what I mean?"


    Miss Solomon nodded stupidly.


    "Now that I understand... Please hurry up to complete the review of the budget." Karen smashed his lips depressed. "I have a task, and I''m the only unlucky guy who can''t make water with you next. But if I can avoid it, I still hope to communicate with you more and rarely see the boring faces of the two generals."


    Karen breathed a sigh of relief after saying so much at once.


    Miss Solomon''s mood has stabilized. Now that it has stabilized, he doesn''t have to continue to occupy valuable working time.


    After all, thanks to the sloppy defense meeting, they have a lot of preface to do before signing the contract, which is inefficient and time is tight.


    Performing their respective duties, non-interference and diligent communication are the best choice to complete the work.


    "Time is pressing." Karen thought of it with emotion. "I look forward to your valuable advice. See you later."


    "See you later..."


    The hatch closed slowly.


    Miss Solomon''s face was burning red as she strangled the budget book in her arms.


    "Lord! Mr. Scott... Is he so cool?"
