C2290 Luminous Orphan (1/2)

Benjamin would never sell out the colonies in the British Empire, as this was the reverse scale of the colonialist at this depth.

However, it was clear that Xiao Letian was very confident, and did not follow Benjamin's tempo at all. The two of them were like two gears with broken teeth, they rotated together and shattered the steel dregs on the ground.

If they still couldn't agree, then there was no need to talk anymore. Xiao Letian stood up and grabbed his windbreaker as he bade farewell, Benjamin clenched his teeth as he stood up to send him off, while the butler at the door was already frightened of the battle. This was a battle between two prime ministers that could affect the entire world, and the words he had said all determined the life and death of thousands of people.

This kind of high intensity pressure was not something an ordinary commoner could withstand. At the moment, the butler did not dare to look at Xiao Letian lightly, and bowed his head as he led the way respectfully.

Just as he walked out of the study, Benjamin suddenly opened his mouth and said, ”Xiao Letian … You didn't want to talk to me in the first place, did you? You think that I will lose? ”

”Yes, that's the only explanation. You want to wait for Gladstone to reorganize the cabinet. You want to sign an agreement with him, don't you?”

”I don't know where your self-confidence came from, but I remind you that the Liberal Party is too weak. A single Gladstone can't support such a situation, even if the British government were to be sent to the Whig Party, it would not be given to Gladstone!”

”You miscalculated!”

Xiao Letian's body trembled. He did not turn his head and only said quietly, ”What plan did I come up with, you can't guess! Because you are the head of Golden Age, and you have the backing of an empire that shines like the noon sun! ”

”You can't understand the suffering of our decaying race, and you don't know what price we have to pay for our rise to the top. If you ask me, I can only tell you one thing …”

Xiao Letian put on his hat and coldly said, ”We only have one plan... That is to be alive, to be alive in this cruel and cold world.

”Farewell!” The door of the residence was opened. The early autumn wind blew in, and the reporters who had received the news outside the door quickly recorded this sorrowful scene.

Xiao Letian, who had a serious expression on his face, held onto his hat with one hand. The wind blew at the hem of his clothes, filling the entire scene with a sense of sadness and vicissitudes.

The rushing crowd of reporters surrounded Xiao Letian, and loyal guards blocked the crowd, isolating these crazy reporters. They did not manage to get any answers to their questions, but this attitude was in itself a kind of answer.

Sitting on the carriage, Xiao Letian's expression was extremely serious, and the last few words that Benjamin said reminded him, the one who replaced Benjamin in history was precisely Gladstone, but since he had already traveled to this parallel universe, couldn't history have changed?

Gladstone was indeed very strong, but there were also many established politicians in Britain, and the Liberal Party itself was created by a group of people split out from the Whig Party.

In this era, the Whig Party's power was already weaker, but being weak did not mean that he had no influence. If Benjamin was forced into a corner and used all of his resources to support a senior Whig Party politician, then what would happen if he stepped down from the stage?

Would Gladstone really be able to get on stage smoothly? If a politician who had never been in contact with the Chinese came on stage, how would the Chinese strategy be adjusted?

”Dammit, I have to bring Gladstone onto the stage. The Liberal Party being in power is the most important part of all my bets! Absolutely do not make any mistakes! ”

In fact, there were people in the CIA who had reacted to this worry, but Xiao Letian stubbornly insisted on betting on the Liberal Party.

He had his own considerations, and such considerations were inconsequential.
