Chapter 955: The Family's Choice

"Yes, I went to China." After Ellen Ron helped Jane sit down, he walked aside and made her a cup of coffee. Then he took the sugar cube jar, stopped his hand in mid-air, and asked,

"Or three dollars?"

"No, it's changed. Michelle said that the elderly should not eat too much sweet food." Jane said.

"Oh, Michelle is always very reasonable." Alan Ron put down the can and came back with the coffee, "When did Terry come here?"

Jane was holding the coffee and recalling in a daze: "I have a bad memory. It was probably three days ago. Why did you ask about him? Didn't that kid also commit something?"

"That's not true." Alan Ron shrugged, "I saw him at the airport today."

"I asked him to go." Jane said.

"You asked him to go?" Allen was a little surprised. He sat down and said calmly, "Don't you always care about these things about us?"

"Yes." Jane gently took a sip of coffee and said calmly, "Alan, you know, the reason why your father and I divorced is because I don't want to watch him fight for power and gain all day long, wearing a mask every day.

Live your life with me."

"So you don't want to live with us three brothers." Alan Ron nodded, "Yes, I have always known that, but as a man of the Ron family, this is also a matter of responsibility."

"I can understand, so if I can't participate, I won't participate." Jane moved her body so that she could sit more comfortably, then paused, took a sip of coffee, and then continued calmly: "I saw

You don't seem to be interested in these things, so I'm very pleased, but it seems that you have also changed."

Allen smiled self-deprecatingly: "People always change, especially when they are forced."

Jane closed her eyes again, like an old man dozing off in the warm winter sunshine, and said slowly, "Terry has already told me about you."

"Oh?" Allen stood up, poured himself a bottle of water, and asked, "What did Terry say?"

"This matter is all Dodge's fault anyway." Jane hesitated for a moment and then continued, "Dodge also came to see me the day before yesterday."

"Oh, that's really a miracle. If I remember the last time he came, it should have been five years ago."

"Alan, I know you and Dodge don't have a very good relationship, but"

"However, with his eloquence, he must have said that my responsibility is not small this time, right?" Alan Ron interrupted Jane and said after taking a sip of water.

"Then you are wrong, Dodge did not defend himself this time." Jane said.

"Really?" Alan Ron asked curiously, "What did he say?"

"He said that all the plans this time were designed by him alone, and he did think that you might die because of this, but he felt that if you could save the glory and status of the Ron family because of your sacrifice alone,

.He has no regrets."

Alan Ron was stunned, but in the end he did not get angry, he just smiled and said lightly: "It's good that he doesn't regret it. If he is the one who dies, will he not regret it later?"

Jane did not comment, but continued: "He also said that once the plan fails, you will definitely be fine. And you will probably cooperate with the 32 Group because of this, and you will definitely come back to seek revenge from him. By then,

He will lose everything. He will even lose his life."

"It seems that he is self-aware." Alan Ron commented.

"For him, this plan is the biggest gamble in his life. If he wins, the Ron family can keep its glory with your sacrifice. If he loses, it will be a disaster for him, but for the Ron family

It’s not necessarily a bad thing, at least you can come back alive now, so your cooperation with the other party must be quite smooth, right?”

Allen Ron frowned when he heard this, and then said: "Is this what he said?"

"Yes!" Jane nodded, took a sip of coffee, put down the cup and looked at Allen quietly, "Seeing you coming, I guess what he said has come true, right?"

Alan Ron nodded: "He expected it to be pretty much the same. His damn perverted plan suffered an unprecedented fiasco. He really has nothing now."

"Alan, I know you hate him." Jane said after a moment of silence, "But you have won now, haven't you?"

"Do you think Dodge is a person who will admit defeat?" Alan Rowan also asked after being silent for a while.

Jane frowned slightly: "You mean, Dodge still wants to have something up his sleeve?"

Allen smiled faintly: "I just said that casually."

Jane breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Alan, I know that Dodge is good at planning, so you should be vigilant, but now that he is notorious and has been dismissed from all positions, it may be difficult to turn around again.

"

Alan Ron nodded: "Indeed."

"So, what are you going to do next?" Jane asked, "About the 32 Group?"

"Don't you want to take care of these things?" Alan Ron said strangely.

"I don't care, but I am ready to hand over all the shares in my hand to you." Jane said with a smile, "As long as you add the shares in my hand plus the 11% that Dodge gave me, you will have 19%.

I will give you 27%, and I will also ask Terry to give you 5%. By then, your equity will be 51%, and no one will be able to shake your position."

"He handed over all his shares to you?" Alan Ron said in surprise.

Jane nodded: "Yes, so now you believe that he won't bother with anything anymore, right?"

Allen was silent for a long time, then he curved his mouth slightly and said with a smile: "It's really not like his style."

"Alan, I'm old, and so are you. This country is suffering. We can't be sure when those horrible monsters will run into our back gardens again. You should all put aside your hatred of each other and face the future together.

Difficulties."

Alan Ron smiled: "Jane, actually when I come here this time, I also want to talk to you about this matter, about those monsters."

"Those monsters?"

"Yes. I know that Montpage was almost broken in by a ghostclaw monster last time, but now I know an absolutely safe place." Alan Ron said.

"Alan, your tone seems like you want me to move?"

"Yes!" Alan Rowan said, "It's too dangerous here. As far as I know, even now, there may still be hundreds of Spectral Claw monsters wandering in the mainland of the United States."

"Really?" Jane smiled slightly and said, "Alan, thank you for your concern, but I am used to living here, and the security measures here are very good. I don't want to move, but of course, I am very interested. Do you want to

Where do you want me to move?”

"Whatever, as long as it's far away from the west coast. Any coast will do." Alan Ron paused and said hesitantly, "I remember you said that you have Chinese ancestry, right?"

"Yes, my grandmother is a Chinese, from the Guangdong region of China. I have already told you."

"Very good, so what if you go to settle in China?" Alan Ron said.

Jane was stunned for a moment, then smiled. She shook her head and waved her hands: "Alan, are you serious?"

"I'm quite serious. You know, the world situation has changed tremendously. America has become no longer so safe and powerful. We need to find a safer and more suitable place for our development, and China There is no doubt that it is a good choice. I have even taken a fancy to a place over there, the place of your ancestors. How about Guangdong Region?"

"Alan." Jane looked at Alan Ron and shook her head again, "Alan, do you know how old I am?"

"eighty two"

"Eighty-three years and nine months, Allen, I was born here. I deeply love this land. Now that I am old, I don't want to go to a strange place again, so I appreciate your kindness. , but I won’t leave here.”

"I'm just, I'm just worried that those monsters will continue to climb up." Alan Rowan hesitated for a moment, and then said in a low voice, "The top-secret information I obtained shows that the next wave of monsters is likely to come soon."

"The next beast wave? Allen, I know how powerful those monsters are, but I have a safe bunker here, so there won't be any problems."

Allen Ron sighed: "I know, but the next beast wave may not be that simple."

"Alan, your tone seems very pessimistic. Could it be worse than this time?"

Alan Ron nodded: "I don't want to lie to you. In fact, this time is probably just a precursor. Our satellites in our previous territory in the Pacific Ocean and some satellite pictures taken on the Hawaiian Islands show that the Pacific Islands have basically Totally occupied by those monsters."

"Some zoologists and some senior experts on ghostclaws predict that the second wave of beasts will probably come in less than five months, and then the cycle is likely to continue to shorten until we have to face them every day."

Jian was silent after hearing this, and after a while asked: "Does anyone else know?"

"Only a handful of reliable people know about this situation. The U.S. government will not admit it, because this will inevitably cause great panic, and even turmoil and riots around the world. By then, we may not even have a chance to escape. Already."

Jane was silent. After a while, she shook her head and said, "I heard from Terry that it can last for at least more than ten years."

"That was the judgment made a month ago, and now the situation has changed." Alan Rowan said, "The number of ghostclaw monsters in the sea has increased explosively. During this period, zoologists predict that some large fish in the sea will almost They are all extinct. With so many Spectral Claw monsters, once the food they need is exhausted, there is only one way to go, and that is to land."

"And once we land and taste the benefits, it's only a matter of time before we can fully land."

“Is America going to die?”

Ellen Ron was silent for a while.

Jane understood immediately that death seemed inevitable.

"How long?" Jane asked again.

"It depends on the situation. The government lasts for two or three years. As for the people on this continent, maybe five years, maybe ten years, or maybe even longer, until one day there is nothing to eat.

."

Hearing this, Jian smiled bitterly: "If that's the case, does it make any difference where we move?"

"Of course there are differences. Humanity's last hope is in China. They have begun to build a new Great Wall, and the progress is extremely fast. Once the new Great Wall is built, those Spectral Claw Monsters will be completely isolated. To put it in perspective,

, even if it takes another ten years, the new Great Wall will not be able to stop those monsters, and we have another even bigger project to organize the human elite to retreat to the interior of the Huaxia Plateau. Research shows that those monsters may not be able to adapt to that kind of

Altitude, and we will build some huge fortresses to stop those monsters."

"That's why you asked me to go to China?"

"Not bad!" Alan Ron nodded, "With the strength of our Ron family, we can thrive wherever we go, not to mention that I have now reached an agreement with the 32 Group."

"Dodge has done so many things to them. When we go there, aren't we just letting others slaughter us? Aren't you worried about this?"

Alan Ron nodded: "Of course, so we will not put all the eggs in one basket. There are also many big families in China, and our ultimate goal is to go to East Slavia or the Kingdom of Oran, far away there

It will not be a problem to support the coastline for thirty to fifty years. We use China as a springboard. This is our goal."

"Do you think they are fools? Will they be willing to be your springboard?"

Allen Rowan shook his head and said: "Of course not, so we must pay a certain price."

"I heard that you have sold some of the group's core industries to the 32 Group at a low price."

"This is a necessary price, but of course I kept a hand. The core technology was given to them, but some things and parts that may not seem important, but in fact only we can make, they must ask us for, once they start the industry

, will have a certain dependence on us, and both parties will eventually complement each other, and this is the way for us to protect ourselves."

"Of course, these are things in the future. Right now, I have a more important agreement to fulfill with the most powerful person in the 32 Group. My value to them is not just these technologies or economic interests. Or maybe we

The truth about these monsters can be found, as well as solutions."

"Alan, it seems that I misjudged you before." Jane said.

"Huh?" Alan Ron looked puzzled.

"I used to think that you can't do anything big, and you can only live your whole life in confusion. But now I have to admit that you are completely different. You are a responsible man. Maybe the Ron Consortium will be handed over to you.

If so, it is correct.” (To be continued)
