Chapter Thirty-Seven The Insignificant Wave(1/2)
The footsteps stopped outside the door.
The door was knocked lightly from outside.
"Is there a problem?"
"Father, it's me, can I come in?"
The fat man breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the familiar voice.
He rubbed his face vigorously: "My daughter, you can come in."
The young and beautiful Minister of the Interior, Miss Hera, came in.
She looked at her father's slightly stooped back, with an imperceptible smile on her lips.
Miss Hera closed the door and walked to the fat man.
"Father, Prime Minister Rockefeller and all cabinet members are waiting to welcome you."
"How can I meet them when I'm like this?"
As people age, they will gradually become weaker from the inside out.
Hera looked at her father's bloodless face.
She raised her hand, put a finger to her mouth, and bit it gently.
When the finger was taken out, there were blood beads oozing out from the fingertip.
She wiped the blood from her finger on the fat man's face.
After applying it evenly, the fat man's face looked much better.
It's very strange, just this change.
His slightly bent waist also straightened up.
All the malaise in his body suddenly disappeared.
Every pore in his body is filled with the aura of a superior person.
The fat man looked at himself in the mirror and nodded with satisfaction.
He turned around: "Let's go meet those vampires now"
The father and daughter walked to the door of the octagonal office.
Two MI6 agents immediately opened the door for them.
The father and daughter walked into the octagonal office one after another.
The room immediately burst into applause.
The fat man was warmly welcomed by all the cabinet members.
Rockefeller took the lead and stood up to applaud the fat man.
Other members of the cabinet stood up and applauded along with Rockefeller.
"Mr. McKinsey, everyone has been worried about you. We have heard about your adventures along the way. You are really an amazing person."
"Everyone, please sit down. In my colorful life, what I experienced in that hour just now was just an insignificant little wave."
Fatty McKenzie said in a calm tone.
The experience at McKinsey was truly wonderful.
Before the age of fifteen, his life was a mystery.
No one knows what he experienced before the age of fifteen.
It can also be said that no one knows what he went through before he was fifteen.
Some people say he is a little gangster who wanders the streets.
It refers to the street children that are common on the streets of Moxu.
The wanderers who managed to survive the winter were all sheltered by some big gangster.
Make a living by pickpocketing in the territory of the big gangsters.
The big gangsters were very generous, and the street kids were allowed to keep a tenth of their pickpocketing proceeds.
Others say that he is a prodigal son of a run-down noble family who has lost all his family property.
Another theory is that he is simply the illegitimate son of a businessman.
Anyway, this has always been a mystery.
At the age of fifteen, McKinsey was recruited as a sailor on a merchant ship.
He needs to keep scrubbing the deck every day, from sunrise to sunset.
People looked at McKinsey in the cabin and thought he was like a snail on the deck.
But this snail seized every opportunity.
Step by step, sailors climb tenaciously from the bottom to the top.
Soon his outstanding performance in the merchant ship attracted the attention of the ship owner.
At the age of eighteen, McKenzie became the youngest boatswain in the entire Demon Ruins.
When he was nineteen, he married the ship owner's twenty-eight-year-old daughter.
He became the captain of that merchant ship that year.
At this time the slave trade had just begun.
The nobles of the Demon Ruins can obtain large amounts of wealth from their territories and colonies.
At the same time, because of their so-called honor, they disdain to participate in such a bloody business.
Those shameless nobles seem to be very different from the slaves in their territories.
Most businessmen who are not nobles are also hesitant about this business.
McKinsey saw the opportunity and immediately jumped into the slave trade.
He even mortgaged his father-in-law's entire property and purchased three new ships.
His risk-averse father-in-law even suffered a stroke.
There is also a theory that his father-in-law suffered a stroke first, and McKinsey got the opportunity to mortgage his family property.
Anyway, McKinsey’s father-in-law did have a stroke.
And he died in the hospital bed two years later, never seeing the day when McKinsey became famous.
McKinsey made a fortune from the slave trade.
He only used a few boxes of glass beads and lace knitwear in exchange for boatloads of strong slaves.
McKenzie transported the slaves to the New World, exchanged them for cotton or gold, and returned to the Demon Market.
He only paid back the interest, and the fleet added two new ships, carrying glass beads and knitted goods and sailing to the Black Continent.
For nearly three decades, McKinsey has been able to get into the most promising deals.
He soon became the richest businessman in the Demonic Market.
In the end, he became the biggest financial backer behind the Constitutionalists.
Without McKinsey's support, Rockefeller would not be where he is today.
McKinsey had several regrets in his life.
It is said that the woman on the cigarette box is one of them.
McKenzie mentioned to people more than once that if the Queen agreed to certain conditions he would immediately give up his support for the constitutionalists.
Most people thought it was just a joke.
As we all know, constitutionalists like to make all kinds of jokes that humiliate the royal family.
To be more realistic, although he has a daughter who is recognized as an outstanding daughter, he does not have a good son.
Although daughter Hera is better than most men.
But no matter what, she will get married sooner or later.
McKinsey is unwilling to leave all the wealth he has worked hard to acquire to outsiders.
So he raised many women outside and wanted to have a good son.
But those women are so disappointing.
In fact, thirteen years ago, a woman gave birth to a son for him.
He was very dissatisfied with that son and kept trying to give birth to another son.
But it never worked again.
McKinsey was chatting with the guys in the room who he had used countless amounts of money to put into power.
