Chapter 280 Night Cruise on the Thames(2/3)
However, it is not enough to correct the factions. If it goes too far, it will easily be pointed out as a weakness during the election campaign.
This makes the political elites in the United States, even if they are very wealthy, not dare to spend blatantly extravagantly.
There is still some impact that needs to be considered.
Especially the shrub family takes this aspect very seriously.
Before little Laura met Abel, her life was almost the same as that of a better middle-class person.
After meeting Abel, she was the daughter destined to get married.
The bush gradually relaxed her control. Anyway, her surname will be Smith from now on.
No matter how extravagant and wasteful it is, it has nothing to do with shrubs.
In other words, before establishing a relationship with Abel.
In addition to vision and experience, there are also aspects of family education and personal safety.
In other places, little Laura’s daily necessities are actually similar to those at Anne Hathaway’s house.
It is a kind of enjoyment for the upper middle class and not yet rich.
Hearing what she said, Abel smiled and said, "Then I will take you for a walk today!"
Little Laura said gently: "Okay!"
It's not good to squeeze in a dozen bodyguards at once.
Someone has already gone in first, the four King Kongs plus two other Secret Service staff.
Accompanying the two Abels, they entered the Fortnum and Mason shopping mall.
In the mall.
Soon, Abel discovered that little Laura also had a talent skill common to women - Shopping.
In addition, like Abel's other women, she was also keen on buying clothes for him.
Inside the mall.
Little Laura didn't even buy a few pieces of clothing for herself, but had already bought several sets of completely different styles for Abel.
Fortunately, he is a natural dresser, he is young, and he has the temperament of someone who has been in power for a long time, so he can control any style.
There are a lot of things to buy.
Fortunately, there were many bodyguards, but soon, the two bodyguards who were specialized in carrying things had seven or eight bags hung on them.
Seeing the two bodyguards looking a little embarrassed, little Laura smiled sheepishly and stopped buying clothes like crazy.
Instead she picked out the various teas on the first floor.
After more than an hour of shopping, little Laura was in a great mood.
She had realized at this moment that Abel was deliberately accompanying her.
It's very deliberate, but she likes it very much.
Because I can have such a legendary man accompany me like this.
As a child of a large family, what else is she dissatisfied with?
Sisters at home, friends in the same social circle, even if they want to be treated like this!
Little Laura suddenly took the initiative to hold Abel's hand and said affectionately: "Dear~ I love you!!!"
Her delicate and elongated voice made her whole body soft.
Abel was more direct, hugging her directly, lowering his head, and kissing her.
After the shopping trip at Fortnum and Mason Mall, the two planned to go to the Thames River and take a night cruise to London.
This is little Laura's suggestion.
She and her parents had played like this when they came to London before.
Abel naturally agreed. When you go out to play, you should have a tourist mentality, have fun, and enjoy the scenery and food.
Compared to a night tour of the Hudson and East Rivers on both sides of Manhattan, a night tour of London does have a slightly different charm.
Compared to London on both sides of the Thames, Manhattan and New York look too young.
Departing from Tower Bridge Pier, take a boat trip along the Thames, the mother river of the British, and enjoy the scenery on both sides of the river.
Along the way, you will see all of London's famous buildings: the London Eye, Tower of London, Tate Modern, Shakespeare's Globe Theatre, Tower of London and Tower Bridge, etc.
Under London's gorgeous night, the dazzling scenery is as wide as your eyes.
Abel and little Laura were enjoying the cool night breeze on the deck when they suddenly received some uninvited guests.
But from a long way away, they were blocked by the rock security staff.
"Mr. Smith, Mr. Smith? It's really you, haha, I thought I saw the wrong person."
A fat young man tried to come over.
This Englishman is fat and slightly bald, and he is of authentic British descent.
At this moment, the bald, fat white man had a smile on his face and spoke standard Cambridge English, which is the so-called upper-class language that is more respected in London.
Behind the fat man, there were two bodyguard-looking figures and two beautiful foreign girls with good figures. They were all looking at Abel curiously.
Abel frowned slightly, and a consultant next to David Jones came over. He leaned over to Abel's ear, "BOSS, this seems to be William Butt. He is the eldest son of the Butt family."
"The Bute family?"
"A marquess family in the UK is particularly good at business and is known as "the nobleman who is most like a businessman, the businessman who is most like a nobleman". This family is the largest shareholder of the British Coal Company and is also one of the major shareholders of the British Petroleum Company. It can be regarded as
One of the most influential families among the British aristocracy."
The person who softly explained to Abel was an Englishman on the advisory team.
Abel came to London this time, except for a few regular core members of the advisory group.
The advisory group assigned him the camp that is most familiar with Europe.
Shure, for example, previously worked for Roland Berger International Management Consulting in Germany, one of the world's largest consulting firms.
Shure is very familiar with many things in old Europe. He is also a British man, so he naturally understands the things and things in this land.
"Then why did he come to me?" Abel was not a British aristocrat.
If this were a hundred years ago.
Rich American business owners would be eager to please a British aristocrat.
But this is no longer a hundred years ago.
Nowadays, the ordinary British aristocrats have one more nice name than the ordinary middle class.
Most of the former aristocrats are now in ruins.
That is to say, those great nobles whose ancestors left a lot of land can still maintain some dignity today.
When other Americans meet British aristocrats, even wealthy people, they will be somewhat curious and respectful.
Strictly speaking, the United States was once a gathering place for English bumpkins.
But Abel didn't catch a cold.
They are just a group of rotten old mummies who have already stepped into the coffin with two feet and the coffin boards are about to be closed.
Even their lord, Her Majesty the Queen, can only rely on her past reputation to support the royal family.
Not to mention a mere marquis?
Schur whispered: "William Butt's father has an investment company in the United States. Smith Capital's seventh private placement, the investment company of the Butt family, subscribed for US$300 million. That time it was William Butt who signed the contract.
,he has seen you”
Oh, they are still customers.
But Abel had no memory.
But since you are a customer, you can't be too unreasonable.
Abel thought for a while and said softly: "Then let him come over. He is alone."
Tonight, the name of the cruise ship Abel is on is the Victoria.
It is the largest cruise ship on the Thames River, with a total of four cabins, including all kinds of food, drinks and entertainment.
The fourth floor is the observation deck, and the third floor cabin is the VIP room.
Abel and others were on the viewing platform.
In the VIP room on the third floor, there were several young people at the window paying attention to what was going on above.
Someone asked: "Who did Fat William meet and get so excited?"
"Looks like a gay guy? From the United States?"
Someone recognized him and whispered, "That's Gay Young! Abe Smith!"
