Chapter 312 Reconciliation? Dreaming!

   "Josie, long time no see, it's rare to go back to the United States without notifying me?" Howard Stark greeted Josie with a faint smile on his face.

Just like what Josie said, he will not stay in the United States for a long time this time. After attending the meeting of the board of directors, and including Ross, Osborne, and a group of subordinates and partners of the Chicago consortium After the meeting, we are ready to go back to Europe.

   As a result, just the day before returning to Europe, an uninvited guest was ushered in. It was the then Director of S.H.I.E.L.D., Howard Stark.

   "Haha, I didn't expect you to be well informed, and it's not that I didn't inform you, but you are a busy person now, and I don't want to bother you because of a little thing!" Josie said casually.

  Although the two parties have cooperated many times in the past, the relationship is actually just a relatively good "ordinary friend" because of the fact that the two parties have hidden camp issues.

   "Oh, what I'm talking about, if it's you, it's no small thing to appear anywhere!" Howard said with a smile.

   "What? Listen to this, our Chief Stark is here to investigate me?" Josie said amusedly.

   "Hahaha, don't dare, I'm afraid I really have to investigate, and tomorrow I should retire like that Chief Hoover!" Howard laughed.

   "Heh, I have been the director for several years, so you are good at hurting people?" Josie was also happy to hear Howard talk about Hoover, which meant that Howard had no credit for Hoover's resignation.

  When Hoover stepped down, although Josie led the operation, there were quite a few people involved, and the newly established S.H.I.E.L.D. was also involved.

  No way, although Hoover was strong enough when he was in office, it is an undeniable fact that he offended too many people.

  So when things have become a foregone conclusion, it is normal for everyone to push the wall down.

   "Just kidding, just kidding!" Howard waved his hand, then sighed, "Actually, I came here this time to be a middleman!"

   "Middleman? Hey! Who is so powerful that they can invite you to be a middleman?" Josie couldn't help being a little surprised.

   "It's Kennedy..." Howard said.

"...Howard, I regard you as a friend, and I don't want you to embarrass me!" Hearing this surname, although Josie said that Howard was embarrassing himself, the expression on his face remained unchanged. Still said with a smile.

But it's not surprising. Compared with the current Josie, although the Kennedy family has a lot of influence in the military and political circles of the United States, it is completely different. If Josie is angry for such a small role, It will only drop.

   "I really don't mean that... To be honest, apart from Joseph, you don't actually have a big feud, right? And Joseph has been dead for more than ten years!" Howard also said helplessly.

  To be honest, he really didn't want to be this lobbyist.

  Although the conflict between Josie and the boss of the Kennedy family in the UK was covered up by the outside world.

  But for the top US officials, the conflict between the two sides is not a big secret.

And this kind of contradiction once extended to the military, political circles, and business circles. In the respective spheres of influence of the two parties, it was also during that period that Howard Stark, who was Josie's biggest "rival" on the surface, also got the support of the Kennedy family. There is a lot of support from them, so the relationship between the two parties is actually quite close.

  In the early days, the two sides could still maintain a certain balance of power.

  But as Josie's strength continues to expand, the influence of the Kennedy family has become a joke.

   Even if Josie didn't deliberately suppress the other party, the Kennedy family couldn't bear it.

   That's why I had to ask Howard to be the lobbyist, trying to clear up the "misunderstanding" with Josie.

As Howard said, in the eyes of the Kennedy family, there is indeed no endless conflict between the two sides. Joseph, who really had a direct conflict with Josie, died in an accident during World War II. Later, the conflict between the two sides It's more of a conflict of interest.

  There is absolutely no need for the Kennedy family to bear the pressure of Josie's forces because of this little conflict.

  Especially Eisenhower is now in his second term, and his term will end in two years. John Kennedy is already preparing to run for the next president.

  For him now, Josie's attitude is crucial to whether he can become president.

   Whether Kennedy can become president is also very important to Howard.

"Hahahaha, look at your expression, it's just a trivial matter, I still want to give you this bit of face, and to be honest, if you didn't come to me today to mention this matter, I wouldn't even think of it What's the matter!" Seeing Howard's constipated expression, Josie couldn't help laughing out loud.

That's right, if Howard hadn't mentioned it, Josie would really have left this Melody behind. After all, unless this really ascended to the presidency as in the original history, the two sides would not be alike at all. layered.

   Just reconciliation? hehe!

"That's great, how about it, you set a time, I'll ask John out, you guys talk, I believe you will have a lot of common topics!" Hearing Josie's words, Howard mistook this matter There is a play, and immediately said with some excitement.

   "Haha, I don't need an appointment. I'm going back to Europe tomorrow. It's not a big deal, and we are both members of the National Party, so we must support each other!" Josie declined.

  Hearing what Josie said, Howard thought, yes, Josie is a Democrat just like John Kennedy—because the president who had the closest relationship with Josie, Truman, was a Democrat.

  And some previous events also showed that Josie and the Republican Party headed by Eisenhower, who is now in power, are not very harmonious with regard to some ruling policies.

   "Going back to Europe tomorrow? In such a hurry?" Just hearing that Josie was leaving tomorrow, Howard couldn't help feeling a little regretful.

   "Hehe, there's no way, you know the situation in Europe, you can't really let my daughter face it alone, can you?" Josie said plausibly.

   "Alright then! I'll pass it on to John!" Hearing what Josie said, Howard could only nod.

   The two sides chatted for a while, and Howard said goodbye and left.

  Just as soon as Howard left, a slight smile appeared on Josie's face.

   Are they all Democrats? Don't be funny, at their level, does the Democratic Party and the Republican Party make sense?

   Immediately Josie picked up the phone and called Linus Lebile first!

  John Lebiler has chosen to retire a few years ago, and now the Chicago consortium is in charge of the "big brother-in-law" Linus.

   "Josie? Is there something important at this late hour?" Seeing that it was Josie calling, Linus was very surprised.

  As Margot's half-natal family, the relationship between the Kahn family and the Lebiler family is still very close, they only had dinner together a few days ago, and Linus was a little surprised to make a phone call so late today.

   "It's not an important thing, but I'm planning to go back to Austria tomorrow, isn't it? I suddenly remembered something, and I'm going to ask you!" Josie said with a light smile.

   "Hey, what are we talking about between us? Please say it or not, just say it!" Linus couldn't help saying after hearing the words

   "Vice President Richard Millhouse Nixon, you know?" Josie asked.

   "Of course I know, why? Did he offend you?" Linus asked, how could he not know about such an important person as the Vice President.

   "No, just let you find a time to represent me, ask him out for a sit-down, and tell him that I am going to fully support him in running for the next president!" Josie explained.

   "Support him? Josie, he's not one of us!" Linus said in surprise when Josie said he would support Nixon.

   "Linus, it doesn't matter whether he belongs to us or not, the key is whether he can become our person, isn't it?" Josie said leisurely.

   "You are right to say so, yes, I will do it!" Hearing what Josie said, Linus thought about it too, now with their influence, what's wrong with people who are not them? Just make him your own.

After finishing the phone call with Linus, Josie called several members of the board of directors and informed him of his decision—the phone he used was a secret line under Pangu surveillance, and there was no possibility of being monitored and recorded .

   Melody wants to be president? Go dreaming!

   Originally, Josie forgot about the family and forgot about it, but now she still jumps out to add trouble to him, so don't blame him.

Of course, the most direct way is to kill Melody, which is also very easy for Josie. Sending any mage at will can make this Melody die very rhythmically, and it is guaranteed that no one will be left behind. any trace.

   But it's boring to play like this.

  Shrimp must go with pig heart, right?

   You must give the other party a little hope, and then at the critical moment, let him fall to the bottom!

   But Melody is not in a hurry to kill him, but his younger brother and the old man can still do it first.

   Isn’t it rumored that the Kennedy family is cursed? Then let the curse come true.

   Exactly two years before the general election, JFK Jr. and JFK Sr. die a year, and then wait until the final year when the election is critical, and it happens to be Melody's turn!

   How perfect?

  Let’s go to old Kennedy first... What constructive way can we arrange for him to die?

  A few days later, the news that the old Kennedy drowned in a river while drunk driving made headlines in Massachusetts.

  After investigation by the police, it was finally determined that this was just an accident!

  The people of the Kennedy family did not find anything wrong and could only accept this fact.

   And this also gave John F. Kennedy, who was preparing for the election, a heavy hammer.

   After all, all the political influence of the Kennedy family is basically derived from the old Kennedy. His death instantly made John Kennedy fall into a great passivity.

   But it was also at this time that Howard Stark brought him good news, because Josie "promised" that the Continental Group would fully help him campaign.

  The news made John F. Kennedy sweep away the haze of his father's death, and instantly cheered up. He even made a special overseas call to Josie who had returned to Europe to express his gratitude.

   And promised that after the election is successful, it will give the Continental Group various benefits and so on!

"Look, this is being sold, and you have to count the money. In the future, when you encounter such a situation, you should be more careful!" Inside the Neuschwanstein Castle, Josie hung up the phone and said to the people who had afternoon tea with him. The eldest son Mike said with a smile.

"You should talk to Ben about this. This kid has been completely fascinated by that Sif, and his mind is full of wanting to become Xeon. He has almost become a fighting lunatic!" Facing his father's preaching, Mike He rolled his eyes and said.

Hearing Mike's words, Josie also twitched. When the Asgard mission came, his youngest son was fascinated by Sif. This was something he never expected. What's more, it's too simple, too easy to get on top of.

   Fortunately, this did not happen to his eldest son and eldest daughter.

   This makes Josie feel a little relieved!

Especially the eldest daughter Carol, after becoming the queen, relying on the manpower and power left to her by Josie, she has already seized the real power of the United Kingdom of Austria in the past year, from an empty queen to a real queen. meaningful ruler.

   Regarding this, Karl Renner, the former President of Austria and now the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom of Austria, was slightly disappointed, but more pleased.

  Although he is still young, Carol has indeed shown the good qualities of an excellent ruler!

However…

"Your Majesty, this is called the Life Card. It is a legendary civilization, a treasure of the royal family of Atlantis. It can evolve the life structure of the wearer and thus possess infinite wisdom and power...Of course, as a divine heir, this Things can't bring you much help, but as a decoration, it's still good!" Schönbrunn Palace, in Kyrol's private reception room, Loki respectfully handed an emerald green crystal plaque to carol.

"Thank you, Rocky! I like this gift very much, but I have said it many times, don't call me Her Royal Highness, it's too natural, just call me Carol, we are friends, aren't we?" Kyroll happily took the life card and said.

   "Okay, Carol, but I think I have to leave, after all, I can't leave Asgard for too much time!" Loki hesitated slightly, nodded, and then said.

   "Hey, don't think I don't know. It's not like you can't leave Asgard for too long. You're afraid of my father, aren't you?" Kyrol said very dissatisfied when he heard what Loki said.

  Locky could only twitch the corners of his mouth helplessly at what Kyroll said, can he not be afraid? If Josie found out that he had been in contact with Carol in private, he would probably be directly criticized.

  At this time, he couldn't help regretting that he shouldn't have left his own magic communication device for Kyroll in the first place.

  His original intention was to please the Queen, so that she could speak well for him in front of Josie when necessary in the future.

   In the end, I don’t know what happened. The queen chatted with him every day, and she wanted to see him every now and then.

   Loki still dare not not come, if the queen can't think about it and complains to Josie, he will be finished.
