British writer

Saatchi is the editor-in-chief of The Daily Telegraph.

His departure is equivalent to dismantling the game, and there is really no need for the club to continue.

People said goodbye to Buckle one after another.

Naturally, Lu Shi, Cooper, and Scott would not stay for long. They casually chatted with others before leaving the headquarters of The Times.

Out of the gate, Sachs was standing in the corner smoking a pipe and waiting,

He waved to the three,

"Want to have a cup of afternoon tea?"

Cooper knew that what happened next had nothing to do with him, so he said goodbye with a smile.

The rest found a nearby coffee shop.

Saatchi sat down and said at the same time: "It is undoubtedly a trick to discuss tea in front of Chinese people. However, I still recommend Mr. Lu to try Earl Gray tea. The tea is based on Chinese tea and mixed with bergamot. It has a special aroma."

This "special" is compared with Chinese tea,

Chinese people pay attention to the original taste and don't add so many seasonings.

Lu Shi said: "I really want to try it, after all, English afternoon tea is a symbol of British culture."

Sage smiled.

"The concept of British culture is too big, so it is a bit of an exaggeration."

Lu Shi waved his hand,

"No, it's not exaggerating at all. The two most prominent features of British culture are trade and power. The average Londoner can use exquisite tea sets and drink tea with a delicate taste. Why?"

In fact, the answer is very simple, just two words:

robbery!

In China and India, the big tea-producing countries, it is difficult for ordinary people to drink tea, so why should the British?

As for the porcelain and tea sets, they came from the "trading" ships of the East India Company.

Thatch and Scott were silent.

Recently, it has been reported that the commander of the Eight-Power Allied Forces, Vadsey, invaded Beijing and set up his headquarters in the Forbidden City. It is needless to say what role the United Kingdom played.

They didn't want to quarrel with Lu Shi over this matter.

But Lu Shi was able to see the power of the United Kingdom from the afternoon tea, and his ability to see the big from the small and see the big from the small made Sage believe in his previous judgment even more.

Saatchi was silent for a while, and said, "Mr. Lu is willing to write for the Daily Telegraph?"

When talking about business, Lu Shi sat up straight.

He didn't rush to answer, but asked the other party: "If I remember correctly, the "Daily Telegraph" and "The Times" have a close relationship and often have linkages. Isn't Mr. Saatchi worried about creating a rift with Mr. Buckle?" ?”

Close relationship is a superficial statement,

To be precise, it should be the same political orientation.

Thatch stirred the Earl Gray tea with a stirring spoon and said something seemingly unrelated: "I don't work with fools."

didn't say anything,

But said nothing.

I don't know how Buckle will feel when he hears Saatchi's evaluation.

Scott on the side pouted,

"Aren't you afraid that Buckle will turn against you?"

The corners of Saatchi's mouth curled up, and he said, "What? Mr. Scott wants to pass on a small story? Then you can go ahead and say it, anyway, I am upright and sit well."

What a "walking upright, sitting upright"!

Scott smiled knowingly,

The three of you talk in a coffee shop, and you can talk to each other, and you can talk to me, so you can be open and honest, without looking forward and backward.

Saatchi said: "Of course, the position of the "Daily Telegraph" will not change, and there will be no less linkage with the "Times."

The implication of this sentence is very clear.

Lu Shi took over the conversation: "Thank you Mr. Saatchi for your kindness. My editorial will not have any position. As for what you and Mr. Scott are going to do... Hehe... Anyway, I don't care, and I can't control it."

No matter how badly the Manchester Guardian and the Daily Telegraph get beat up, it's none of his business.

He only cares about two things:

1. Name;

Two, profit.

Let's get a firm foothold in England first,

At least, Lu Shi must have the capital to serve.

Scott said to Saatchi: "The "Daily Telegraph" mostly has small articles. If you want to write a column for Mr. Lu, I'm afraid it will only be once a week?"

Sage took out his pipe, knocked the ash on the table, and slowly filled the pipe with shredded tobacco.

After a while, he lit the fire, took a deep breath,

"Go out and talk?"

Scott nodded.

"please."

The two gestured to Lu Shi respectively, and then left the table.

It's kind of mysterious...

Lu Shi was also happy to be at leisure, and drank tea leisurely by himself. At the same time, he complained in his heart that the British like to put sugar and milk in tea, which tastes weird.

At this time, a white girl came to the table,

"Excuse me, is this Mr. Lu Shi?"

Lu Shi didn't pick up,

He didn't know the foreign girl in front of him, so naturally he didn't bother to talk to her.

Unexpectedly, the other party took the initiative and said: "Mr. Lu, don't be nervous. It's just a simple acquaintance and chatting. It will not violate morality, whether it is British morality or Chinese morality. By the way, you can call me Margarita."

Lu Shi is full of black lines, ￣□￣｜｜

Apparently, the other party was so enthusiastic because he misunderstood that he had the introvertedness (self-esteem) of East Asians, and he didn't dare to take the initiative to contact British ladies.

He sighed, "Who are you?"

Babes are confused,

"I just introduced myself."

It's okay to not hear Lu Shi's sarcasm.

Lu Shi became more and more helpless, carefully looking at the other party's clothes,

Margarita's skirt was tailored very well, it was obviously not a ready-made garment, and judging from the excellent workmanship, it was probably made by a family tailor, and the pearl necklace on her chest looked not cheap, it looked like The dress of a rich girl.

And, the margaritas are gorgeous,

She doesn't have large pores and many freckles like ordinary foreign women. Instead, she has delicate skin. She seems to be of partial Asian descent. Her eyes are piercing, and when she stares at Lu, she flickers with curiosity.

Lu Shi has one head and two big ones,

He knows how difficult this kind of little princess is,

"Ms. Margarita, you..."

Before the words fell, Margarita corrected: "Miss."

Lu Shi was dumbfounded, and continued: "Okay, miss. Miss Margarita, could it be that you want to pay for my afternoon tea?"

This sentence is almost equivalent to driving people away.

did not expect……

"OK."

Margarita actually took a seat opposite Lu Shi, and took out a £1 note and put it under Saatchi's plate.

Lu Shi was subdued, so he had no choice but to ask the other party: "Miss Margarita, I don't know why you want me?"

Margarita giggled,

"Mr. Lu, I heard that you support women's right to vote and to be voted?"

okay~

Feminists.

The rich lady has nothing to do when she has nothing to do, she likes to think about things.

Lu Shi flatly denied it: "No."

Margarita said in surprise: "But I just heard that you said a lot in the salon..."

Before the words fell, Lu Shi immediately interrupted the other party: "Who are you!? Why didn't I see you at the salon!? Could it be that you eavesdropped at the door of Editor-in-Chief Bakker!?"

There were three questions in a row, all in a harsh tone.

Margarita was stunned by the question and didn't know what to say.

Lu Shi muttered, "I didn't expect the law and order in London to reach this point. I have to contact Scotland Yard."

On hearing Scotland Yard, Margarita got up hastily,

She escaped secretly. If she was imprisoned for no reason, it would be a big deal, and it might cause international problems.

She gave Lu Shi a hard look, and slipped away with her skirt in hand.

Lu Shi couldn't help but let out a long breath: "Huh~ Finally..."

Meanwhile, Thatch and Scott are back,

Scott joked: "Mr. Lu is really charming. We only went out for a few minutes, and you took away the soul of a lady."

Lu Shi begged for mercy: "Don't make fun of me. We're talking about business, and business matters."
