Chapter 5136: Conflict of Interests
"Oh, invite me to be your guest! Haha, Ma Long, it seems you won't be far home this time!" Lin Feng said with a smile.
Regarding Adams V, Lin Feng has always guessed that he should love Ma Long very much. That's why Lin Feng asked Ma Long to go home to regain what originally belonged to him. Now it seems that it is indeed the case. Then the certainty is greater.
As for Lin Feng's support for Ma Long to regain his position in the Adams family, does he have any selfish motives? This, at least for now, does not exist. He was just standing up for his younger brother. As for what will happen in the future, let’s talk about it later.
Although as the old saying goes, people who have no long-term worries must have immediate worries. People need to think longer term. But sometimes, if you think too far, you will inevitably become snobbish. Sometimes, taking a step and taking a look is not a bad thing. At least for such people, it is easier to be satisfied, happier and sweeter.
"By the way, boss, Muse said he lent the rat bronze head for appreciation. There is an appreciation meeting tonight, and he said he would return it to you tomorrow!" Ma Long replied.
Will you come back tomorrow? Lin Feng frowned. This is a bit strange. Lin Feng originally thought that he was trying to make use of the topic. I never thought that it would be so easy to change it back. What is this muse doing? Are you giving in? Lin Feng shook his head. Impossible. People like Muse cannot give in easily.
It seems that something might happen tomorrow. However, Lin Feng was not afraid either. If a guy like Muse also wants to do bad things, then I will kill him directly. Whatever tricks he dares to use tomorrow, as long as he doesn't catch him, if he catches him, he will take the opportunity to deal with him. Build momentum for Malone to take over.
"Li Rui, go to Mouse and Cathy and see if there is any evidence!" Lin Feng ordered.
Perfect! The word was born to represent imperfection. this world. There are no perfect things or perfect people. The so-called perfection always has flaws. Like the perfect crime, there is never a perfect crime in this world. The so-called perfections are those flaws. The flaws are so small that ordinary people can't catch them at all. Lin Feng didn't believe it either. These false accusations will be seamless. There will always be flaws.
There always is!
night. deep.
The Adams family estate occupies a huge area. And in order to distinguish the core members and non-core members of the family, the building clusters are divided into several places. The entire family estate covers a total area of 18 square kilometers. The core, the middle one is naturally the residence of the head of the family. The surrounding area is distributed according to the location of the family. Beyond. The status in the family is naturally more peripheral. At this moment, in a small villa slightly remote from the central community, a man and a woman laughed lustfully.
"Little slut, hurry up, use a little more force, damn, you are really a bitch! A born bitch!" Muse was naked at the moment, standing on the bed, drinking wine. Laughed loudly.
At this moment, under his crotch was a woman with disheveled hair. The head kept moving, making embarrassing sucking sounds from time to time. This woman is naturally Cathy. But the two of them didn't hear it. The door downstairs opened quietly, and a figure walked in and walked upstairs. A conduit stuck out from the crack in the bedroom door and looked around. After staying there for about a few minutes, the catheter quietly retreated. Then, the black shadow left quietly again.
The next morning, Lin Feng got the video of Muse and Casey*. High-definition video, the shot is very clear, the front face is very clear.
"They are still hooking up, these two bastards! Aren't they afraid of tarnishing the reputation of the Adams family?" Malone clenched his fists.
Although Muse is not married yet,
But Cathy married the son of a wealthy family in New York City. Of course, that wealthy family cannot be compared with the Adams family. The gap between the two sides is huge. Therefore, Kathy has always had a great say in the family, and her husband has no control over her at all. But you are married after all. If you do something as bad as a pig or a dog, once your husband finds out about it and is exposed, the Adams family will be completely disgraced.
"Boss, I want to show this video to grandpa!" Ma Long said through gritted teeth. He didn't want his grandfather to do anything to Muse, but at least he wanted to prevent it from happening. This is so embarrassing.
Lin Feng shook his head.
"Ma Long, your grandfather is not an ordinary person. He has been able to hold the position of head of the family for so many years, so he is definitely not an ordinary person. I believe he must know this. But for the sake of his direct bloodline, he will not expose it. After all, you still have There is no restoration of identity. Malone, don't forget that if you and Muse are exposed to have an affair, your family will be completely abandoned by the family, and your grandfather will not agree to it. !" Lin Feng said.
Ma Long thought about it and agreed with Lin Feng's words. Indeed, it is impossible for grandpa to make any decisions for the sake of inheritance. And he didn't want the family power to fall to the wayside. Back then, he did not choose to fight with Muse because of this consideration.
But if things are revealed, it will be a big earthquake.
"So, I'm going to be a guest of the Adams family today. Come on, come with me!" Lin Feng smiled slightly, "If you rise to power and prove that you were falsely accused, then your grandfather can attack Muse. Otherwise, No matter how outrageous Muse does, he can only endure it!”
Not long after the meeting, Malone accompanied Muse to Adams Manor.
The manor, which covers an area of 18 square kilometers, is extremely imposing. There are rockeries, artificial lakes, and a small golf course. It can be said that it has everything. Of course, Lin Feng's "Heavenly Palace" is no worse than this.
This is just occupying land and building a manor. But Lin Feng's "Heavenly Palace" is building mountains in the Shanghai plain, which is even crazier. And it occupies a huge area. Moreover, there is more than a month before the "Heavenly Palace" will be officially completed! By then, the Heavenly Palace will serve as Lin Feng's residence!
"Salute!"
When Lin Feng arrived at the gate of the manor, the Adams family fired salutes, and Adams V led the main members of the Adams family to the gate to welcome Lin Feng.
"Mr. Lin. Welcome to the Adams family! Welcome!" Adams V stepped forward and shook Lin Feng's hand heavily.
"Master Adams, it's too grand! It seems. I have to bother you here for a few days, otherwise it's hard to refuse the kindness! "Lin Feng laughed.
"That's a must!" Adams V laughed.
The two of them understood each other and entered the manor hand in hand.
The moment he entered the manor, Lin Feng felt the rich history of the Adams family.
The Adams family has an inseparable secret connection with American history and the establishment of the American democratic system: Samuel Adams personally participated in the initiation and organization of the American Revolution; John Adams, one of the four drafters of the Declaration of Independence, served as the first vice president. The second president; and John Adams' son John Quincy Adams, served as ambassador to Prussia, the Netherlands and Russia after the independence of the United States. Member of the House of Representatives, Secretary of State, and later became the sixth president of the United States. Some people jokingly call the Adams family the "first royal family" of the United States, which is not an exaggeration. Because you can be with them The only ones who can be compared to them are the three founders of the United States, namely Washington, Franklin and Jefferson, but none of them have legal male heirs.
Once upon a time, the Adams family was known as the "first royal family" in the United States. Like Hamilton, Taft, Harrison, Roosevelt, Kennedy, Bush, Rockefeller and other surnames, this family has accompanied the history of the United States for more than 200 years, and it is also the first family in the United States to produce father and son presidents. From Samuel Adams, who personally participated in the initiation and organization of the American Revolution, to John Adams, one of the four drafters of the Declaration of Independence, to the big entrepreneurs, writers and other celebrities who appeared in the family later, the Adams family is worthy of being the "first royal family" in American history.
Among the ancestors of the Adams family, there was no first person to come to the colonies. The first person to do so was Henry Adams, John Adams' great-great-grandfather. He was a farmer and maltster. In 1640, he left Somerset, England, with his wife Edith Squire Adams and their nine children, and settled in Braintree, Massachusetts. He was one of the eight sons of Joseph Adams. This branch of the Adams family would later make the Adams family famous - Joseph had 12 children. The grandfather of Samuel Adams, the signer of the Declaration of Independence, and the grandfather of John Adams, the second president of the United States, were two of Joseph's 12 children. In addition, John Adams' great-uncle Zabdir Bolston introduced the technology of vaccination to the United States. In 1721, smallpox broke out in Boston. Encouraged by Cotton Mather, Dr. Bolston gave about 2 40 smallpox patients. Including his own children, they were vaccinated. As a result, only a few people died of smallpox.
Of course, the original ancestral home of the Adams family was in Quincy, a southern suburb of Boston, a famous American cultural city. Quincy is a small town with a population of only 100,000. From the perspective of urban layout, house construction, and street design, it is only equivalent to the size of a prefecture-level city in China. However, this inconspicuous town is honored by Americans as the "President City". The two Presidents Adams were born here and buried here after their death. Their experiences have left many memories for the people here that are not very old but extremely precious.
Old Adams was born on October 30, 1735 in a house on the north side, which has become the oldest existing presidential residence in the United States. Because the first vice president and the second president of the United States were born in this house, Americans call it the "cradle of American independence", and the furnishings in the house are still exactly the same as they were back then. In 1784, Old Adams served as ambassador to Britain on behalf of the United States before independence, and returned home four years later when his term expired. During this period, he bought a mansion at 135 Adams Street in Quincy, and named it "Peace Field". This mansion has more than 20 rooms, surrounded by large green spaces and typical 18th-century style gardens. Four generations of the Adams family lived here. In 1846, Adams' descendants donated the house to the country, and since then, it has become part of the "Adams National Historical Park" to commemorate the contributions of Adams and his son to the country.
It can be said that the Adams family should surpass the Rockefeller, Morgan, Kennedy, Roosevelt families, become the largest family in the United States, and should be the leader of the 'g23. Unfortunately, the Adams family made a wrong step back then. That is, in the Civil War, they chose to stand on the side of the southern slave owners because of their own interests. After all, the Adams family was the largest slave owner in the United States at that time.
Civil War. To liberate slaves naturally conflicted with the interests of the Adams family. Initially, the southern slave owners, with the support of the Adams family. Although they did not have an advantage in numbers, they relied on adequate military preparations, advanced equipment and well-trained troops, especially on the eve of the Civil War, President Buchanan (the agent of the slave owners) tried to transport a large amount of weapons and money to the South. The southern slave owners initially won victory after victory, and the Northern Alliance was defeated again and again.
Moreover, President Lincoln initially hoped for the unification of the North and the South. He did not announce the liberation of slaves. But later, as the war situation developed unfavorably, he was defeated by Robert Lee of the Southern Army. He fought all the way to Washington. And in the subsequent Battle of Antietam and the Battle of Fredericksburg, he was defeated by Robert Lee. At the same time, the Adams family also actively contacted the British government, hoping that the British government would come to support.
It can be said that the war was extremely unfavorable to the Northern Army for a time. But on September 22, 1862, Lincoln issued a preliminary emancipation declaration. Announcement: If the southern rebels did not lay down their arms before January 1, 1863, the slaves in the rebellious states would be free from that day. After the news reached the South, thousands of slaves fled to the North. And because of President Lincoln's slave emancipation proclamation, the British working class also launched a movement to support the North, forcing the British government to abandon its original intervention plan.
At this point, the war was considered to have taken a turn. After that, President Lincoln implemented a policy of arming blacks. On New Year's Day in 1863, Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation to emancipate black slaves. Blacks were allowed to join the Northern Army, and then the "Homestead Act" was promulgated, allowing all Americans to obtain land in the West. In the end. The Northern Army won a great victory, defeated the Southern Army, unified the American continent, and completely liberated black slaves.
This war also directly led to the downfall of the Adams family. Of course, this war is not so much a victory for President Lincoln. It is better to say that it is a victory for the Rockefeller, Morgan and other families behind it. They have been eager to make a move for the title of the first family in the United States. This time, the Adams family was finally overthrown!
Of course, after the Civil War, the Adams family was still the largest family. It must be that the Adams family has made great contributions to the United States, and there are shadows of Adams in all walks of life. It is undoubtedly a delusion to completely eradicate Adams. However, the Adams family made a huge mistake again at this time. Of course, perhaps the people of the Adams family were unwilling to accept the failure of the war, so they made a plan to assassinate Lincoln that shocked the world. A core member of the Adams family funded this assassination. As a result, Lincoln was assassinated and died, causing a national shock.
After this stupid assassination, the Adams family was suppressed by various forces, and eventually fell from the first family to a second-rate family. Even when the blow was the most severe, the Adams family fell to a third-rate family.
After so many years of development, the Adams family has finally returned to the ranks of first-class families. Unfortunately, compared with the previous right to speak, the gap is too big. But to be precise, the assassination that year was also problematic.
Because the core member of the Adams family was instigated by someone behind the scenes. And the instigator behind the scenes is said to come from families such as Rockefeller and Morgan. It can be said that the Civil War was more of a struggle for interests, a struggle for interests of these families. Lincoln was just a victim. The most beloved president in American history, his rise came from the struggle for family interests, and his demise also came from the struggle for family interests. It can be said that he rose from the family and fell from the family.
Lin Feng and Adams V walked side by side, followed by Malone and Muse. Malone's return to the family naturally caused huge criticism. Malone's arrival yesterday was deliberately concealed by Muse, and many people were not aware of it. Seeing Malone return to the family at this moment was quite shocking to the members of the Adams family.
"Isn't that Malone! How come he is back! He still has the face to come back!"
"Yes, that traitor, how can he still have the face to come back to the family!"
"Such a scum, actually has the courage to come back! Bah!"
...
The discussion among the members of the Adams family was very loud. What happened in the past few years was a humiliation for all the members of the Adams family. Having sex with his own sister, plus embezzling family property, these are all serious crimes. If this Malone was put before the Civil War, he would definitely be beaten to death. This kind of family scum can only be washed away with blood to wash away the shame he brought to the family!
Muse brought a faint smile to the corner of his mouth. He deliberately concealed this news yesterday, that is to surprise these family members and let their anger burst out today. Let Adams V know how unbearable his most beloved grandson is among the family members. Humph, old man, you want to praise him, can you praise him!
Malone heard these curses, his whole body was like a knife cutting his flesh piece by piece. He was in pain. If it was normal, he would definitely turn around and leave. But today, following Lin Feng, he must stand up for Lin Feng. He can be looked down upon, but he must never be looked down upon by others!
Lin Feng naturally heard these curses and smiled faintly.
"Master Adams, these are not the way to treat guests!" Lin Feng said faintly.
"Shut up! How can we treat such a distinguished guest like this?" Adams V shouted angrily.
