Chapter 78

Trinity College, Cambridge University.

The luxurious carriage stopped slowly in front of the great university that cultivated great figures such as Newton and bacon.

Lorraine and Jero got off the bus left and right in their most ceremonious dresses, stopped together, raised their elbows, and met their female companions from the car.

Jero's girlfriend is his unmarried niece Freya, a standard, lively and somewhat broken mouth English expensive girl.

Lorraine's girlfriend is Carmen.

Today, she has long hair. She is wearing a cream waist dress, a silk scarf and lace gloves. Even the wide brimmed hat on her head is dotted with elegant lace and ribbon. She is not decorated with gold and silver. The only valuable thing is the tricolor corset saved with pearls in front of her chest.

Conservative, pure, but smiling, still beautiful and moving.

Lorraine never expected to see such a temperament from Carmen. She couldn't help praising him and said, "today you'll make all the ladies jealous. I see that miss Mindel has pouted up."

Carmen nodded, holding Lorraine's arm, jumped out of the carriage and pulled it up.

"Miss jezra told me that seafarers are the private property of the captain. I can't show off without your advice. She said it's the rule of pirate ships."

"How can you make me sound old-fashioned..."

"It's respect."

"Is there a difference?"

Seeing Lorraine's depressed appearance, Carmen closed his mouth and trembled with laughter.

Eight days after the reorganization of the chamber of Commerce, the great repair of the butterfly flower came to an end, and rare ancient gold ware successively landed in auction houses everywhere.

This batch of gold ware caused an uproar in the collection market. More than 30000 pounds of cash flowed into Lorraine's pocket, which was converted into sailors' bonus, viscount Alfonso's share capital and the brand-new ship outfit of lucky grass.

All three things cost Lorraine twenty thousand pounds.

After all the work was done, the General Chamber of commerce still had a balance of ￡ 14000 on its book, while the sub chamber of Commerce had ￡ 4000, with abundant funds.

Ramos also had a good first meeting with the famous count of bidia in the Basque region under the recommendation of Carmen.

If nothing happens next, the bidia family will make up for the loss of reputation caused by the dismissal of the Alfonso family and become a new partner of Drake chamber of Commerce in the kingdom of Spain and the Basque region.

Everything has made progress, and the butterfly is still some time away from the water.

Lorraine took time out and led pierce to pay a high-profile visit to Jero, President of Mindell chamber of Commerce.

Before that, Jero always thought Lorraine had died at sea

In the more than 20 days since Lorraine lost contact, the situation in Cantabrian has become worse and worse.

The reindeer was invincible, and the first fleet of the Desai family swept the four fields with the blessing of this powerful warship and made a huge profit.

Driven by huge interests, the French Kalmar chamber of Commerce, the Dutch Yodel chamber of Commerce and the Spanish erera chamber of Commerce have sent their strongest fleets to the hunting ground.

The whole route was full of elite privateer ships, and English businessmen had become unable to walk.

Jero was worried. On the one hand, he lamented the early death of the young people he favored, and on the other hand, he also lamented the loss of the chamber of Commerce.

In the current situation, he had to cut off the lucrative Spanish route, causing the chamber of Commerce's revenue to fall to a cliff.

Just then, Lorraine returned to the world like an angel.

Single handedly, with small and broad, bravely fight the giant whale and sail back safely

Lorraine, who stood in front of Jero again, jumped from a young man full of potential to the hope of victory in the battle of breaking diplomatic relations in Jero's eyes.

He restarted the membership of Drake chamber of commerce with the greatest enthusiasm, and achieved everything he needed in a few days.

Drake chamber of Commerce officially joined the offshore Association, and this grand afternoon tea party held at Trinity College is the official welcome meeting prepared by the Association for Lorraine.

Lorraine and Carmen were laughing quietly beside the carriage. Jero came over with his niece and took the initiative to play the role of host.

"Brave little Drake, have you ever been to Trinity College before?"

Lorraine shook her head with a bitter smile: "the closest time I was to Cambridge was the day when I was expelled by my family. At that time, a letter of acceptance from the law school was placed in front of me. As long as I accepted it, I could become a student of Cambridge."

Yello laughed: "Trinity College is Trinity College and Cambridge University is Cambridge University. You should be careful not to confuse the two."

He pointed to a corner of the gate. Behind a row of big trees, the apple tree planted alone under the window said, "that's the gravity tree. It discovered gravity with Isaac Newton. Now Mr. Newton lives in the hall of fame, and it enjoys the secluded courtyard outside the gate."

"Mr. minder seems to be familiar with Trinity College."

"My brother and I are both graduates of Trinity College. In fact, the three chambers of commerce created by the offshore Association have their roots in Trinity College. The initial motion was planned by three young people near the hot spring of Juting."

"Trinity College still supports students to do business?" Lorraine was surprised.

"Freedom, challenge, humor, we are different."

Yello smiled proudly and led Lorraine to the magnificent Gothic gate.

"In 1546, the great King Henry VIII merged the king's school and Michael's school into Trinity College. In order to let us remember his grace, he convened the outstanding sculptors in Britain at that time, selected the most dignified one from thousands of schemes, and erected his statue on the gate of the college."

Following Jero's guidance, Lorraine saw the sculpture above the huge arched porch of the gate.

Henry VIII stood solemnly on the porch, holding the golden holy ball cross in his left hand and a strange stick in his right hand.

"On his hand..."

"A chair leg is still lame."

"Chair legs?"

The color of complacency on Jero's face grew stronger and stronger.

"At the beginning of the completion of the statue, his majesty Henry VIII held a golden scepter that was originally a symbol of the throne and majesty. He was high and asked every Trinity student to bow down to his majesty from the day of admission."

"This caused the dissatisfaction of the old students. Less than a month after the statue was completed, a senior student named Tony Clayton secretly climbed up the statue, took off his scepter and threw it into the smelly ditch."

Lorraine and Carmen were stunned. "Throw the scepter into the smelly ditch?"

"It's really a smelly ditch." yello shrugged. "This caused an uproar in Britain that year. His majesty ordered the college to investigate, but the teachers and students of the college firmly kept the secret of senior Clayton, even in the face of God. The college's investigation was fruitless, so they had to redo a scepter and put it back in the hands of the statue."

Lorraine couldn't laugh or cry. "Did Mr. Clayton throw it into the ditch again?"

"There is no evidence that senior Clayton is directly related to the last two Scepter thefts."

"The last two times? Hell, this Scepter has been stolen three times?"

Jero pointed to the broken leg of the chair on the right hand of the scepter and said, "just the third time, the man who stole the scepter stuffed the broken leg of the chair in."

"And then?"

"The senior management of the college thought it was very good. They ended the event with a public statement. The original text of the statement was: Although the students were naughty, they did not lose their loveliness, and heartily expressed the independent spirit of the college against authority. The college thought this was an appropriate change, and it also believed that this should be the last change of the statue event."

"1546..." Lorraine was amazed. "That is to say, his majesty Henry VIII has been standing at the gate of the college with his chair legs raised for more than 200 years?"

"He will always stand, because Trinity will last forever. He wants to destroy her unless God is tired of human beings."
