    First, his eyes widened in surprise, and then Ladi showed a accustomed expression and said: "You mean, the sand with the fountain over there belongs to you, brother.

    Oh, it's not surprising. Now even if you suddenly tell me that President Rand plans to appoint you as the Vice President of the Federation and hand over the responsibility of leading America to you after resigning, I won't be surprised.  What could possibly happen?  "

    "I take your words as a compliment to Ladi, so thank you, brother." Zhang Lisheng smiled sideways at the second son of the Raven family and shrugged. As soon as he finished speaking, Ruili behind him looked into the distance and blurted out:  "Li Sheng, after seeing these fountains, I think Anchor Julie would like to invite you for another exclusive interview."

    "When the farm is built, Ruili, I promise to accept an exclusive interview with your NBC (all-meter media company), but it's a holiday now, so don't talk about work, okay." The young man was stunned and said with a frown.

    "Oh, don't get me wrong, I don't want to force you to accept NBC's interview" Ruili hurriedly explained, but when she saw Zhang Lisheng turned his head with a smile and made a silencing gesture with his fingers on his lips, he choked up and became more than ten years old.  After a few seconds, he continued in a low voice: "Okay, Li Sheng, we won't talk about work during the Christmas holiday.

    ¡°I¡¯ve been to ¡®New New York C¡¯ once. It¡¯s a great city. It has the largest man-made ski resort in the world, and the winter landscape created there is exactly the same as that of the earth"

    In the girl's eloquent narration, which was gradually filled with longing, the speeding car drove into a huge city built on an oasis.

    The oasis city in Noah¡¯s world lacks historical accumulation, and the Federation has adhered to the principle of pragmatism since it first opened up the ¡®different world¡¯.  So much so that they are uniformly composed of modern "steel jungles" without any features, so that even the smallest feature can attract people's attention.

    Looking out the car window at the skyscraper-lined street, Ruili excitedly stood up in the back seat, pointed forward and shouted: "Li Sheng, the 'New New York C' is here.

    Looking forward, have you seen the snow peak? It is the artificial snow mountain of the "Winter Dream Ski Resort" that I just mentioned, which is unique in the entire "Noah". It is also a landmark building of this city.  "

    The young man looked absentmindedly in the direction of the girl's finger, and sure enough, a snow-white mountain towering into the clouds burst into view.

    But unlike Ruili, who has been trapped in the city for a long time, Zhang Lisheng will not be moved by the small artificial snow peak.  He shrugged and said in confusion: "It seems that the name of this 'Winter Dream Ski Resort' is indeed a bit creative.

    But that¡¯s all.  Is it worth your excitement, Ruili?  "

    "This is a snow-capped mountain in the desert, Li Sheng, isn't it amazing enough? It's not worth being excited about" The eldest daughter of the Raven family was stunned.  Then he remembered the special identity of the black-haired young man in front of him.  Changing the topic, he smiled and said: "Oh, of course, although the Winter Dream Ski Resort in 'New New York C' is very good, it is much worse than the landmark building Neptune Building in our New Washington City A.

    But since I can only see it a few times a year at most, I find it very novel.  "

    Hearing this, Zhang Lisheng was stunned for a moment, opened his mouth and turned to look at the girl and said dumbfounded: "What are you going to say, Ruili, do you think I am such a stingy person"

    Conversations between young people are always boring and superficial. God Wu Li, who has long been accustomed to this kind of 'chameleon' life, just chatted with the brothers and sisters of the Lavin family, surrounding the city along the ring road from south to north.  After half a circle, the car arrived in front of a courtyard surrounded by an iron fence with exquisitely carved patterns.

    Seeing the lead car driven by his mother parked in front of the fence gate, he stepped out of the car and pressed the video camera on the iron gate covered with shiny copper. Zhang Lisheng showed a stunned expression, "This is my grandpa's house. Isn't he a judge?"  Why does the residence look even more exaggerated than the private residence of the Federal President!"

    "It seems that you really don't know anything about the judiciary, my brother," Lardy finally seized the opportunity to preach to the young people and said exaggeratedly: "The salary of a federal prosecutor is almost the same as that of a senior manager of a multinational company.  of.

    ¡°Besides, many government officials were very successful and famous lawyers before taking public office. They have already earned enough money to enjoy their lives. It is a matter of course that they are richer than the president of the United States.

    Grandpa Carmen Li is said to have been one of the senior partners of one of the top ten law firms in New York State. In addition, when he came to Noah's world, it was still a time of peace, and the land prices in the oasis city were not as outrageous as they are now. Building a building with a courtyard  What's so surprising about his mansion?  "

    While the second son of the Raven family was speaking, Lily seemed to have made contact with the people in the courtyard and walked back to the car, while the iron door slowly opened.

    "Listening to your explanation, this is indeed a normal thing."?.  "The car drove into the courtyard. Zhang Lisheng looked through the car window at the emerald green hidden in the steel forest. He nodded, straightened his body and straightened his collar, getting ready to see the father who seemed to be so cruel because of his abnormality.  Preparations for his rather prejudiced grandfather.

    The stone path in the forest seemed deep, but it was actually more than 100 meters away. After passing a fountain with a sculpture of a fat child playing in the water, the car stopped at a Western-style classical building made of cement blocks to imitate stones.  In front of the square house.

    It¡¯s almost noon, and the sun is rising high in the center of the sky, which is the hottest time of the day.

    There were not many people welcoming the Raven family under the scorching sun. There was only an old white woman with loose wrinkles, wearing the typical federal maid uniform of black skirt and white hat, waiting in the shadow of the eaves.

    Seeing the maid from a distance, Lily got out of the parked car, ran to her, hugged the maid and asked enthusiastically: "Angela, I'm back Angela, are your parents okay?"

    "Welcome back, dear Lily, the judge and his wife are in very good health. Yesterday they played doubles tennis with Master Joey and his wife and won three games in a row." The maid stroked Lily's hair and said softly,  Then he nodded towards LaVine, "Good afternoon, Mr. LaVine."

    "Oh, good afternoon, Miss Angela." The police officer waved his hand politely and unnaturally. Zhang Lisheng, who had also got off the car beside him, heard this conversation and thought of the time when he used to go in and out of the wealthy business families in Manhattan.  The etiquette of the servants made me laugh dumbly.

    While the young man was laughing, Lily said in surprise: "Angela, did Joey arrive before us? That's great. I haven't seen him for more than a year. Did he also come with the whole family?"

    After hearing this question, the maid's eyes unconsciously glanced at Zhang Lisheng, who had black hair and black pupils, with a complicated expression among the variegated youths of the Raven family, who had high noses and blue or light blue eyes.  Without saying much, he quietly took a deep breath and said to Lily: "Lily, your Honor and Madam are meeting with Judge Rebeck and Judge Pound

    Prosecutor Lippi, Prosecutor DocDirector Steveare playing cards in the study. They have already given orders. You can go directly there to meet them when you arrive.  "

    "Are Uncle Rebeck and Uncle Pound here too? Oh, what a coincidence. So what are we waiting for? Angela, go to the study room." Lily cheered and said, she seemed to be freed from her worries when she returned to her parents' house.  The housewife of Raven's family has become like a happy girl again.

    Seeing such a mother, Zhang Lisheng felt strange and awkward, but under such circumstances, he could only follow Lili into the mansion.

    Unlike the exterior, which cleverly uses architectural illusion art to create an extraordinary impression, once you enter it, you will find that the space inside the house is not very spacious. Of course, it is still much larger than ordinary people's homes.

    Because the cement blocks used to build the house are particularly thick, the hot sunlight cannot penetrate, so the interior of the mansion naturally looks cool and comfortable.

    Everyone walked through the living room along the brown-red solid wood floor with a crisp "dah" sound, followed the stairs up to the second floor, and came to a room covered by a simple old-fashioned heavy wooden door. The maid knocked on the door.  He gently opened the door of the room and said in a moderate voice: "Your Honor, Madam, Miss Lili and her family have arrived."

    It now covers an area of ??about one hundred square meters, with dark gold wallpaper on the walls. There is a long mahogany table in the middle of the room with rows of comfortable sofas and chairs. There are eight or nine people who look to be of different ages, including men and women.  The female New York State legal elites were sitting around chatting and playing cards with great interest.

    From the fact that most of the chips on the gambling table have a face value of one or two meters, and there are very few chips above ten yuan, it can be seen that the stakes in the card game are not large, but for a New York 'lawyer', being able to join such a  In the gambling game, it means a kind of coveted and alternative success. On the surface, there may not be any gains, but the actual hidden benefits are countless.

    For example, if it is ambiguous, you can still issue a search warrant. If there are certain reasons for not issuing one, you can always successfully get a search warrant issued by a judge;

    When there is a fierce confrontation between the prosecution and the defense in court, the rhythm of one's own speech is smoother, but the other party's statement is always interrupted, etc. No matter how rigorous the legal procedure is, it is impossible to cover everything.

    What's more important is that the exchange of information in the game can sometimes bring unexpected huge gains. Therefore, after hearing the servant's words, the owner who seemed to have caught a good hand didn't even have the intention to give up this round. He looked up.  Seeing her daughter walking in, she smiled slightly and said, "Lily, you are here, my dear sweetheart.

    Raven, welcome to the 'New New York C', boy, how many games do you want to play??  "

    "No, Mr. Carmen, you know I'm not very good at playing cards." Raven said cautiously.

    "We are playing a very simple game of 'Texas Poker'. If you are interested, I can teach you, but of course you have to pay the 'tuition' yourself." Carmen didn't even pause when her eyes glanced at Zhang Lisheng, and said with an inappropriate smile.  (To be continued)

    ps: There has been no update for two days. Zhuzhu originally planned to pay off the debt for one chapter before the second update today, but ended up having to play with the kids for a day on Father's Day. Kawen kept writing until this night before typing out a chapter. It was really crazy.  .

    No more debts, and I would rather not watch the World Cup!  !  !  !  !  !  !  !

    Of course, except for the finals~00~
