From cannon fodder to sweeping across thousands of stars.

Chapter 682 Amber Lobbying

To be fair, Jacques Cole really liked and was pleased with Amber's very straightforward "opening method".

As one of the busiest people in the entire Star Dragon Empire, the Chancellor of Finance hated it when people who came to see him talked about a lot of irrelevant topics before getting down to business. So Amber's way of getting to the point in the third sentence of a meeting won him over.

However, as a "foreign force", it was still a bit outrageous for them to ask the Imperial Finance Minister about his opinion on the successor to the empire.

It was at this moment that Jacques Cole realized that his future 'nephew-in-law' was not an easy person to deal with.

After calmly taking out a silk scarf from his bosom and wiping his mouth, Jacques Cole was about to speak when he heard Amber on the other side say, "Uncle, why don't you give me one too? I blew it all over my face."

"."

Jacques Cole felt that he could no longer remain calm. It could be said that every word Amber said from the moment she entered the room till now was beyond his expectations. However, he was the Finance Minister of the Empire after all, and his psychological quality was far superior to that of ordinary people. So in this situation, he still controlled his emotions and pulled out a brand new silk scarf from his desk to hold it over.

"Thank you, uncle~"

"Wait, can you please stop calling me uncle?" Jacques Cole said unhappily, "You and Isabel haven't gotten married yet, is it appropriate for you to call me 'uncle' all day long?"

"What's inappropriate about this? Can't you see the relationship between Isa and I?"

Amber wiped her face with a silk scarf, put on a simple and honest smile, and continued:
"It's only a matter of time~"

"." Jacques Cole took a deep breath and looked at Amber seriously, "What kind of answer do you want to hear about the question you asked?"

Amber: "Any answer is fine. I just want to hear your thoughts first."

"I respect all your majesty's wishes. No matter who finally ascends the throne, I will continue to assist him with all my heart and soul."

Jacques Cole paused, as if considering his words, and then continued:
"I am loyal not only to His Majesty, but also to this empire."

"If this is what you really think, that's great. If this is not what you really think and it's just the 'official statement', that's okay too. You can listen to my thoughts." Amber said with a smile.

Jacques Cole didn't say anything after hearing this. He just stared at Amber quietly, and the latter understood what he meant in an instant - 'You talk, I'm listening.'

Amber sat up straight, and just as she was about to start a long speech, she suddenly said, "Do you want to set up some encryption like 'black box mode' first, so that the conversation in this room cannot be heard by a third person?"

"Tsk, you want to say something outrageous? I remind you, don't think that I won't do anything to you just because you have a close relationship with Isa."

Jacques Cole, whose appetite was whetted, said unhappily, but he still touched under the desk with his right hand, and the entire office was quickly isolated from the outside world and all signals were blocked.

Amber smiled secretly in her heart. Although this 'uncle' spoke a little harshly, his actions were quite honest. Seeing that the office was sealed off, he also spoke:
"If you are still loyal to this empire and want to make it a better place, I hope you can consider supporting Her Highness Agnes. After all, she will be the 'legitimate empress' of this empire when she ascends the throne. You will also have to swear allegiance under the Star Dragon flag and offer your loyalty, right?"

"Why are you helping Her Royal Highness?"

"Because if nothing unexpected happens, she will become the next close partner of our Atlas Group~" Amber said without hesitation, "From the current situation, she is the legitimate heir to this empire, and is willing to support the Atlas Group to conduct in-depth business in the empire. She is a very high-quality 'ally' choice." "Then why are you looking for me? Since you are the legitimate heir, can't you just wait for the coronation ceremony to end?"

"Uncle, do you still have to say something so 'official' to me?"

Amber's tone suddenly became quite resentful, and coupled with the effect of psychic amplification, Jacques Cole inexplicably felt a little guilty, as if he shouldn't have said such things.

On the other side, Amber continued to speak:

"I just want to get more help so that your highness can be enthroned and implemented thoroughly without any major problems, so that I can invest with confidence. I can't just reach a cooperation agreement with Her Highness Agnes and the next day the next heir to the Star Dragon Empire changes, right?"

"Don't say this outside," Jacques Cole said with some helplessness in his tone.

Amber waved her hand: "I'm not a fool, don't worry, I will only say this to you, uncle, after all, we are about to become a family~"

By this time, Jacques Cole had seen how wicked Amber was, and immediately gave up the idea of ​​beating around the bush with this guy. He sighed and asked, "Why me?"

"You are my uncle, shouldn't I think of you first for such a good thing?"

"Seriously."

Amber immediately put on a 'serious face': "Your connections, relationships, and influence in the upper echelons of the empire are obvious to all, and you control the financial power of the empire. If you can support Her Highness Agnes, then the situation will instantly change."

"It seems that you are very worried about His Highness's ascension to the throne. Are you worried about the Regent?" Jacques Cole did not hide his words and spoke directly.

"Yes, a series of problems recently have made me worry."

There was some distress in Amber's tone, or rather, whenever the 'Prince Regent' was mentioned recently, he would fall into a state of 'not understanding, not being able to figure it out'.

"Then what good can I get from 'taking sides' so obviously?"

"You have such outstanding abilities. Why don't you become the prime minister of the empire? I believe that with the help of 'Follow the Dragon's Merit', it will not be difficult to do so."

Jacques Cole sneered: "Humph, I'm exhausted now. You want me to be the chancellor of the empire? Do you want me to die of exhaustion in the chancellor's office?"

As if Amber was waiting for Jacques Cole to say this, she immediately took out a portable storage device and handed it to Jacques Cole. After Woking confirmed that there was no problem with the device, the latter connected it to his desk.

Soon, a series of 'product display' information was projected, and Amber's voice sounded.

"Before you make a decision, would you like to learn about our Atlas Group's 'Intelligent Integrated Management System 2.0'? A support system that truly liberates managers?"
