Chapter 43 Angry

Think about it, if I no longer serve as the captain of the Gilas, then the most likely person to be the captain should be the first mate de la Torre. Based on my relationship with de la Torre, if he is the captain, in fact It doesn't have much influence, and it's a good thing that if you get promoted, your subordinates will follow you.

  So Fang Lang tried his best to calm down and said:

   "It's a pity that you guys overestimated my ability too much. I don't know if De La Torre is the captain of the Gilas."

  Obviously, the Brazilian army does not look at ability now, and the background is much more important than ability.

   "As far as I know, Mr. de la Torre is not capable enough to be the captain."

  Fang Lang still did not give up and asked:

   "That's another captain from the navy, right?"

  Considering, Fang Lang took the Gilas from the Americans after all. Moreover, General Morais also said that the captain of the transport ship Gilas should respect Fang Lang's opinion.

   It's a pity that Graham doesn't think that Fang Lang's opinion needs to be sought for this kind of thing. As a soldier, he will spend some time with you in order to let you go to the Americans to get a warship over.

  But taking away the Brazilian Navy's own transport ship by yourself will not ask for the opinion of a captain. Just express your attitude clearly in the form of an order.

"Okay! I don't think there is any need to hide this matter from you, and you will know soon! The new captain of the Gilas will be Mr. Roberto Fendis, the second officer, Mr. de la Torre Will continue to serve as first mate, assisting Mr. Fendis."

  Hearing Lieutenant Colonel Graham's words, Fang Lang was immediately laughed angrily. It turns out that the clown has always been me. Fang Lang, who thought he and Lieutenant Colonel Graham were friends, saw through Graham's face and ugly eating at this moment.

  From the first time Fang Lang organized all the crew members of the Gilas to introduce themselves, Fang Lang already knew that Fendis, the person who was transferred from the logistics department to be the second officer, was obviously Lieutenant Colonel Graham. Fang Lang only thought that the other party was here to monitor him, but he didn't expect that it was someone who was waiting to pick peaches.

  Now that he has seen it through, Fang Lang doesn't want to continue to entangle Graham too much, so he directly opens his mouth to see off the guests.

   "Then I understand! Mr. Graham Lieutenant Colonel, I will seriously consider your suggestion. It is very late today, so I will go back to rest first! Good night!"

   Seeing that he did not achieve his goal, and might have turned against Fang Lang, Lieutenant Colonel Graham was a little annoyed. I want to continue chatting with Fang Lang. An English question came from beside him, interrupting Graham's thoughts.

   "Which one is Fang Lang, Lieutenant Fang!"

   This made Lieutenant Colonel Graham even more annoyed, couldn't he see that he was communicating with Fang Lang! It was so impolite that he was about to turn around and scold him, but when he saw that it was a major of the US military, he quickly suppressed his unhappiness, pointed at Fang Lang and said:

   "Mr. Major, hello! This is Fang Lang, but he is no longer a lieutenant, he is now a captain."

  The American major shrugged and looked at Fang Lang and said, "I'm sorry, please don't mind. I am Jack from the US Navy Logistics Department, and I was ordered to take you to see Commodore Jackson."

   This was a timely rain for Fang Lang, who wanted to stay away from the entanglement of Lieutenant Colonel Graham. Fang Lang said quickly:

   "Hello, I'm Fang Lang, and I'll go with you now."

   After finishing speaking, he did not say goodbye to Lieutenant Colonel Graham beside him, and left directly with the major of the US military. It made Graham feel bad for a while, and he was still thinking about it, and said that he was not familiar with the Americans, and the relationship was not close enough, so what's going on now, someone came to pick you up just after you came back. Isn't this going to the grave and burning the newspaper - a fool!

   Speechless all the way, Fang Lang was sent directly to a heavily guarded residential area by the Willis jeep of the US military major. It seems that this time it was a relatively private meeting, and Fang Lang felt more relaxed when we no longer met in the office.

After pushing the door and entering, I saw Brigadier General Jackson in pajamas, sitting on the sofa by the fireplace, holding a cigar in his hand, puffing, and seeing Fang Lang coming in, he didn't get up, but directly Pointing to the sofa next to him, he said:

   "Come on, come and sit here!"

   This kind of environment where the distance between two people can be easily shortened, of course Fang Lang would not foolishly come to the army. He also casually looked at the environment of the house and said:

   "Uncle, your house is really nice. It belongs to you, or to the army!"

  Brigadier General Jackson looked at it, and Fang Lang's attitude also smiled slightly.

   "Of course it belongs to the army. Why should I buy a house in Italy! Why do you want to buy a house to hide your beauty in a golden house!"

  Fang Lang really likes the location and structure of this house very much, and he must own his own property in Italy in the future.

   "Hey. Uncle Jackson still understands me! I really have this idea. The war will end. It's good to buy a property in such a beautiful place and come here for a vacation!"

   Regarding Fang Lang's idea of ​​buying real estate, Brigadier General Jackson also understood what was going on, and couldn't help but joked:

   "Your vacation is fake, but it's true to arrange a little girl. Don't tell me, you took down the most beautiful little nurse in our naval hospital!"

This relaxed atmosphere made Fang Lang very relaxed. After thinking about it, since Brigadier General Jackson lives here, it means that he also likes it very much. Why don't you give him a property yourself? Wouldn't it be better for the two of them to be neighbors to bring them closer together? relationship!

"Hehe. That is, with my handsome and unrestrained appearance, I must win the most beautiful flowers! I wonder if the house here can be purchased now? I will buy two houses and leave one for my uncle when the war is over. Uncle can bring Auntie over to see what Uncle has done for her!"

   Unexpectedly, Fang Lang would be so bold as to want to buy a property for himself. Although he does not lack these things, his intentions are still very satisfying. It is not in vain to recommend him.

   "It seems that you kid has made a lot of money recently!"

   Hearing that Brigadier General Jackson did not explicitly refuse, Fang Lang understood what he should do. He was never afraid of losing money for himself, he was afraid when he was afraid, and when he gave something to others, no one else wanted it.

   "This is all under your care, uncle, I don't have the ability to rely on myself!"

   Seeing that Fang Lang was smart enough not to continue entangled in the real estate issue, Brigadier General Jackson smiled slightly and said:

   "You have to transfer your ability to do business to the military. Otherwise, wouldn't such a smart mind be wasted?"

   Commodore Jackson's words made Fang Lang's heart move. It seems that Jackson's initiative to see himself today has something to do with the idea of ​​the Brazilian Navy! Taking advantage of the opportunity, he told the news of his promotion.

   "Oh! Uncle, don't underestimate me! I am now a captain! And there is news that tomorrow the expeditionary force headquarters will award me the rank of major again!"

   Originally, Jackson was still considering that Fang Lang's military rank was not enough, and it was not easy to support him. Unexpectedly, he suddenly told himself that he would soon be a major! Is it so easy to get promoted in the Brazilian army?

   "What's going on, weren't you just a lieutenant before you returned to Brazil? Why are you going to be promoted two ranks so soon!"

  Fang Lang didn't hide anything, and gave a general explanation of what happened to Brigadier General Jackson.

"Hi! This is also thanks to my uncle. I accidentally caught two Japanese spies when I returned to Brazil. I heard that this was the first espionage case solved after the country joined the war! Therefore, the country attaches great importance to it, and specially sent a telegram to reward it. Raise my rank to major!"

   Brigadier General Jackson was very surprised to hear that Fang Lang had caught a Japanese spy.

   "Do you still have the ability to catch spies?"

  Looking at Brigadier General Jackson's shocked expression, Fang Lang was a little embarrassed. He seemed to be acting too forcefully, and quickly explained:

   "I was lucky. I saw two wanted spies' warrants, and I happened to bump into one of them, and I recognized it at a glance! Such a good thing that came to my door! I am also very helpless!"

   Fang Lang's words made Brigadier General Jackson a little dumbfounded, and you are still helpless. Fang Lang nodded with a finger holding a cigar and said:

   "You kid, this is a good deal for you!"

  As soon as he heard that Brigadier General Jackson said that he had gotten a good deal, he immediately vomited out the grievance he had just suffered at Graham.

"Uncle, you are wrong. This is really not a cheap thing. The military rank has been promoted, but then there is a job change! The transport ship you assigned to me will be snatched away by these dog days ! I'm so angry!"

  The expression of a child after being wronged made Jackson laugh out loud:

   "Haha. You boy, I didn't give you this transport ship. It was allocated by the US Navy to the Brazilian Navy. It has nothing to do with me."
