Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

Chapter 2909 The usual method

Derrickford is not stupid, he also knows that the current situation is not very good for them. Right now, how many people are waiting to see them make a fool of themselves, and their opponents are all staring at them. A bad word They will be mobbed immediately, and resigning at that time is the best result. Of course, it also means that they can only go home to retire.

"Then what do you say now?"

Derrickford, who had calmed down, looked at Stephen Jol and asked.

Stephen Jol thought for a while, and then he gave the safest way for English officials to solve the problem.

"As always, drag on and tell neither the truth nor the lie."

Derrickford's eyes lit up immediately.

"what do you mean……"

"It's important to keep ourselves. Let's just procrastinate on this matter. It's still under discussion. As for when it will be implemented, I'm afraid it will take a while. As for the final result of the negotiation, it can only be negotiated." I found out later, and don’t make this bill too obvious, you can bring in several other bills to divert everyone’s attention, so that they won’t just focus on this issue.”

Stephen Joll has been in the House of Lords for so many years. He naturally has many solutions to the problem. At the beginning, he was just too nervous and flustered for a while before he could calm down and think carefully, so he seemed a little flustered.

But after calming down, Stephen Jol immediately thought of the best way to deal with this matter, and that was to procrastinate.

As for the matter that he promised Fang Yihua before, it is not something that Stephen Joel needs to consider. After all, he is the most important thing. Other people and things are far less important to him than himself. This time, he was so impulsive that he was angry with Lin Daoqiu It's just that, if it were normal, there wouldn't be so many things happening.

"Miss Fang..."

Unlike Stephen Joll, Derekford is still a little worried. After all, Fang Yihua has "subsidized" a lot of money for him. If he does nothing in this matter, in case Fang Yihua rushes out If the matter is revealed, it will be a big scandal by then.

"Go and explain to her, explain the current situation to her clearly, and tell her that although there is no way to speed up the progress for the time being, but as long as there is a chance in the future, this bill will definitely be dealt with, and the slowest will not exceed a year. The most important thing right now is to protect ourselves."

Derrickford nodded as he listened. Stephen Jol was right. Protecting oneself is the most important thing. After all, they are not people with ideals and beliefs.

After leaving Stephen Joll's office, Derekford immediately made a phone call to ask Fang Yihua out. He began to think about how to persuade Fang Yihua in the car to go back to Xiangjiang and not stay in London. Once the media discovers her existence, it may be impossible for her not to attract the attention of others.

An hour later, in a coffee shop in London, Derekford met Fang Yat-hua who had come to the appointment.

"Hello, Miss Fang."

"Good day, Sir Derek, I'm not late, am I?"

Fang Yihua did not expect Derekford to arrive one step earlier than her, which surprised her, because during this period of time, she was dealing with these upper-level figures in England, and they basically belonged to the kind who made her wait. I have never met anyone who took the initiative to arrive early, so Derrickford's behavior today is really abnormal.

However, Fang Yihua didn't think too much about it. After all, the bill is progressing very smoothly. As long as the steps are followed, the bill restricting Lin Daoqiu will come into effect in a short time. By then, Lin Daoqiu's status in Xiangjiang will no longer be I am the only one.

"Of course not, it's just that I'm here early, please sit down."

After Derickford and Fang Yihua shook hands, the two sat down.

"I wonder if Miss Fang has read the newspapers and news these days?"

Fang Yihua was immediately confused by Derekford's question, because she didn't read these things at all, and she was too busy to watch TV and newspapers, so after being asked by Derekford Fang Yihua could only shake his head.

Seeing Fang Yihua shaking his head, Derickford's brows began to frown, but when he thought of the other party's identity, Derickford couldn't blame her too much.

"That's right, the promotion of the bill is going smoothly now, and I believe it won't take a year for this bill to be passed and then legislated."

"Thank you, Sir Derek, uh... it won't take a year?"

Just after thanking the other party on the front foot, Fang Yihua heard something wrong on the back foot, because before she thought that the things that could be done within three months, now Derekford suddenly seemed to stretch the time to one year Don't look at him saying that it won't take a year, but these English people are very strict about the concept of time. He said that there is a high probability that it will exceed half a year, and it is the kind of time that is very close to a year.

"Could it be faster? After all, the situation in Xiangjiang is very unfavorable to us. If..."

"I'm sorry Miss Fang, legislation is no child's play. It is already a great thing to be able to do this. In order to help you, now that the media outside are starting to bombard me and the people in the House of Lords, we did not pass this bill Revocation is already a great thing for you, what more can you ask for?"

Fang Yihua didn't expect Derekford to get angry all of a sudden, she stared blankly at him for a moment, but recovered quickly.

"I'm so sorry Sir Derek, I was reckless, and I apologize to you."

Fang Yihua was immediately persuaded. After all, the other party was the deputy speaker of the English House of Lords, who belonged to the top of the upper class. Derrickford's help but that's beside the point.

"What you have to do in England has been done, so I don't think there is any need for you to stay in England. If I'm not wrong, those media will find you soon, and you will Surrounded by a large group of media, so I suggest you leave England as soon as possible and go back to Xiangjiang."

Derickford asked Fang Yihua to go back to Xiangjiang, which was tantamount to dealing with the biggest threat to him. As long as Fang Yihua was not in England, the indiscriminate bombing outside would not pose any real threat to Derickford.

"I... I see, I will leave England as soon as possible, and I am really sorry for the inconvenience caused to you."
