Chapter 265  Old Friend

But at the same time, he was also very clear that in front of great benefits, there were bound to be great risks.

"Mr. Retlin, let\'s be frank with each other. The conditions you proposed are indeed very tempting, but for you to sacrifice so much and give up the benefits that belong to the Shwell family so easily, I\'m afraid I have to pay a high price."

The market share in the military was limited, and there was no chance for them to come out. So since Retlin said he could help him, the Shwell family had to give up their share.

Edwin threw the pen in his hand on the table. "I just said that I\'m just an ordinary businessman."

"You\'re too humble, Mr. Anderson." Retlin grinned.

If he was really just an ordinary businessman, why would he look for him to discuss cooperation?

"I completely believe that you have the ability to eat this big cake."

Edwin did not let his words go to his head. "What are the conditions?"

Retlin secretly heaved a sigh of relief. Since Edwin was willing to ask for conditions, it meant that there was still room for negotiation. "My request is that you help me protect Jeffrey\'s safety."

The military was a relatively closed circle, but the political and business circles were very close.

Although the Anderson family only engaged in business, for a family to be able to stand for a hundred years and prosper until now, their family\'s power had probably already formed a huge chain of interests with the infiltration of a hundred years.

Among them, the current head of the Anderson family was one of the best. Whether it was his leadership ability or his courage, he was far superior to ordinary people. As long as he did not have any major accidents, it would not be difficult for the Anderson family to maintain its prosperity for another 20 to 30 years.

Therefore, even if the Anderson family did not have much influence in the military, just based on his influence in the political and business worlds, he was still someone worth wooing.

If this cooperation could be strengthened, it would at least give the Shwell family another way out.

Of course, Retlin did not mention these plans.

When the Anderson family really accepted the military supplies they gave up, the two families would naturally be bound together. At that time, even if the Anderson family wanted to withdraw, it would not be so easy.

Thus, he wasn\'t in a hurry. He only suggested that the Anderson family protect Jeffrey.

This request wasn\'t difficult, and it was also a way to show weakness to Edwin to a certain extent. It meant that the Shwell family was in trouble, so they would give up such a large interest to ask for protection, so as to dispel Edwin\'s doubts.

The conversation between the two lasted for about half an hour. The initial discussion did not yield any substantial results.

The reason Edwin gave was that the risk was too great, and he needed to think twice before giving an answer.

Retlin expressed his understanding. Before hanging up the phone, he seemed to have mentioned it unintentionally. "By the way, how\'s your little fiancée doing recently?"

Edwin\'s eyes narrowed quickly to hide the shock in his voice, but his voice did not show anything unusual. "Oh, why are you suddenly asking about her? As a student, she has to work hard in class every day."

"She is much younger than you. It\'s quite a coincidence." Retlin chuckled. "She looks quite similar to an old friend I know."

Edwin thought for a moment and said, "Are you talking about Caroline\'s grandmother, Old Madam Lambert? The two of them indeed look 60-70% alike. I\'ve heard Caroline mention that Old Madam Lambert studied at Nister School for two years when she was in middle school. She should be two years younger than you. I thought you didn\'t know her, but I didn\'t expect you to remember her."

The old friend that Retlin had mentioned was naturally not Old Madam Lambert.

Luo Ling was the female God of War in the army. Although her appearance was not revealed to the public, there were still many people in the army who had seen her before and knew what she looked like.

The selfie that Caroline had uploaded before seemed calm, but it had actually caused a lot of undercurrents.

As an old man in his early seventies, Retlin was very unfamiliar with the online world, so he didn\'t know about the things that were causing a stir on the internet, nor did he know Caroline.
