Leaving JFK International Airport, the group did not return to Manhattan, but rushed to Greenwich, Connecticut, which is close to New York.

Greenwich City, located 30 kilometers northeast of Manhattan, has nothing to do with Greenwich Village in midtown Manhattan. If you have to care about it, it can only be attributed to the lack of Westerners' talent for naming.

Compared with Greenwich Village, where artists gather, Greenwich City is a wealthy area on par with Manhattan's Upper East Side and East Hampton on Long Island. Many rich people tend to have properties in the Upper East Side and the surrounding Greenwich and East Hamptons. They usually live in the Upper East Side on weekdays and return to suburban mansions on weekends.

Janet has been privately helping Simon buy properties. While living in New York a few days ago, I bought a manor in Greenwich again.

Not only that, Janet is still looking for real estate in cities such as Las Vegas, Chicago, Boston, Washington, Miami and other cities on the east and west coasts of the United States. Simon's current wealth is enough to support his original vision of real estate all over the world.

Sophia Fisher had also bought a property in Greenwich before coming to the United States, where she planned to send her children to school. As a well-known wealthy area, Greenwich undoubtedly has the best educational resources on the East Coast.

It just so happened that the party Simon was going to attend tonight was also in the Hearst family's mansion near Greenwich.

Several luxury cars entered the Greenwich, Connecticut area in less than an hour on the East Coast's well-developed highway network. The property Sophia bought for the children is in the center of Greenwich, and Simon's manor is in the northern suburbs. They have made an appointment for an invitation to lunch with the executive women at noon tomorrow, and everyone will be separated.

Simon and his party drove about five kilometers north along the forest asphalt road to a manor on the outskirts of Greenwich.

The periphery of the manor is a symbolic stone low wall, but the terrain is obviously higher than the asphalt road next to it, and it is difficult for pedestrians and vehicles to peep in directly.

Within the low walls, dense bushes and tall trees further camouflage the interior of the manor, all of which were left unmaintained, similar to what Simon saw last time he went to East Hampton for a party at Steve Ross's house. completely different.

The mansions in the East Hampton area have manicured hedgerows and lawns, and on the Greenwich side, the vegetation along the way is kept in its natural state.

Simon has always been more inclined to a sense of order in his bones, but he has no intention of changing the pattern of the manor here.

Maintaining a natural state is actually an order.

The manor covers an area of ​​more than 30 acres, equivalent to 12 hectares. It is an irregular quadrilateral as a whole, with a north-south length of nearly 500 meters. The length of the east-west boundary varies. The narrowest part of the northern boundary is less than 100 meters. The border is next to an east-west asphalt road that is over 400 meters long.

The car of Simon and his party entered the manor from the west entrance. Most of the interior of the manor was covered with vegetation of different heights. Driving inward along the curved asphalt corridor for about 200 meters, a European-style villa with a blue roof and white walls appeared. In front of him, there is an annex building seven or eight meters apart on the east side of the main villa, which is obviously the residence of the servants.

The three cars stopped in front of the main villa, and a group of girls in uniform black suits greeted them.

Janet got out of the car following Simon, took the man's arm and gestured to the seven girls who came forward with a smile, and said, "This is the housekeeping team for our real estate in North America in the future. I picked it myself, isn't it beautiful? Europe? Sophia is still in charge of that."

Simon nodded, looked at the seven tall and fair-skinned girls who came to him, and subconsciously said, "It seems to be too young."

Janet pinched Simon's arm in dissatisfaction: "That's it, if you are not satisfied, you can choose it yourself, I don't care."

The two whispered small words, and a short-haired girl with a delicate face and a slightly cold face in the front had reached out to Simon and said, "Hello, Mr. Westeros, I'm Alice Ferguson."

Simon and the girl shook hands and said, "Nice to meet you, Alice."

After greeting, Alice Ferguson turned slightly and took the initiative to help Simon introduce the other six beautiful girls behind her who were obviously eager to try, and said, "Mr. Westeros, they are Mila, Emilia, Naomi, Doris, Isabelle, Zoe."

After quickly introducing them one by one, the new housekeeper turned to face Simon again, and said, "Mr. Westeros, let me show you this villa."

Simon watched with interest the other girls who were not even introduced by Alice Ferguson, who were obviously daring to speak, nodded with a smile, and said, "Okay."

Janet kept smiling, listening to Alice Ferguson say so, let go of Simon and said, "You guys go in first, I'll arrange for them to pack up."

Simon didn't refuse either, and walked towards the villa first.

Alice Ferguson followed Simon step by step.

The two walked into the villa, and Simon looked around. The scale of this villa was comparable to his villa on the hillside of Palisades in Los Angeles. The high-rise two-storey villa was higher than some ordinary three-storey buildings. The hall has only one floor space, and the ornate crystal chandelier hangs directly on the dome.

The interior of the villa presents a pure white decoration style as a whole, and the home decoration has obviously been changed, all of which belong to the simple style that Simon likes.

Simply looking left and right, Simon walked to the second floor along the spiral staircase on the west side.

Alice Fergusonyi

Jiu followed behind Simon, without any intention of introducing.

On the second floor, Simon smiled and stood in front of the corridor wall, looking at a painting that Janet herself drew, and said first, "How old are you this year?"

"27 years old."

"Which university did you graduate from?"

"Princeton."

Simon retracted his gaze and continued to walk to the side of the corridor, with more dissatisfaction in his tone: "Then what?"

Alice Ferguson finally said something more and said, "I studied economics and got my doctorate two years ago."

"Getting a PhD in economics at 27 is amazing."

Alice Ferguson paused and corrected: "25 years old."

"In the future, when people ask, they will say that he is 27 years old."

"why?"

"I said it was 27 and it was 27."

"……it is good."

Simon pushed open a door, and in front of him was a bedroom. I saw the floor-to-ceiling windows leading to the terrace and went in.

Coming to the terrace, Simon stood by the railing and looked at the busy people in front of the villa, and asked, "What is the title of your doctoral dissertation?"

Alice Ferguson: "The U.S. foreign trade imbalance caused by Reagan's economic reforms."

"Are you interested in politics?"

"Considered, but gave up."

"why?"

"It's hard for women to make a difference in politics."

"Not necessarily, maybe in ten years, there will be a female president in the federation."

"The odds are close to zero."

"Well, then why do you want to come and work for me?"

"The salary is high enough, and there will be better opportunities in the future."

"Um?"

"The four core businesses of the Westeros Company are all headed by women."

Simon asked with a smile: "Which four, and how many companies I invested in, I can't even remember."

"Daenerys, Melisandre, Igret, Cersei."

"Okay, then tell me, which of these four companies has the greatest development potential?"

Alice Ferguson hesitated and said, "Daenerys, or Igret."

"I only let you name one family."

"Igret."

A few surprises flashed in Simon's eyes, he turned his back against the railing, looked at the girl in front of him again, and said, "In this case, help me as a housekeeper for five years, you can go to Igret. Of course, the premise is You still have to prove your ability, and if I think you're more suitable to be a cleaner in Yggrete, then you can only go and sweep the floor."

Alice Ferguson pursed her thin lips and said, "I need permission to understand Igret's permission."

"No problem. Besides, since you are so smart, you can get a doctorate at the age of 27, so let's study computer technology in the next few years."

Alice Ferguson: "I also have a master's degree in computer science from Princeton University."

Simon glanced at the girl's fair neck and said, "Are there any other degrees, let's talk about it together?"

"there is none left."

"Then continue to study, and also get a doctorate. Anyway, you just help me manage the real estate, and you have a lot of free time," Simon said, without waiting for the girl to respond, and asked: "By the way, do you have a boyfriend? ?"

"No."

"real?"

"I've had several girlfriends."

"..."

Simon was speechless, no wonder it always felt strange.

Seeing Simon's choked appearance, Alice Ferguson paused before adding, "However, I don't reject the opposite sex."

Simon nodded, deliberately adding a bit of aggression in his eyes, looking at the lace edge that was captured alive in front of him, and said, "I understand, this is a hint."

Alice Ferguson shook her head: "No, this is express."

Simon was timid, raised his hand and said, "Go and lock the bedroom door, I want you now."

Alice Ferguson shook her head: "Not now, today is my dangerous period, and there are no contraceptives in this bedroom. If I get pregnant unexpectedly, I will ask you for all the rights this child should have."

Simon insisted bully: "Don't worry, I know a lot of intimacy that won't get a woman pregnant."

"I don't accept alternative ways of having sex."

Simon clenched his fist, and the knuckles made a slight snapping sound, and said, "I will let you accept it."

Alice Ferguson still looked at Simon and said seriously, "I will bite you."

Well, this is brutal.

Simon noticed that Alice Ferguson occasionally showed very beautiful white teeth when she spoke, but she only felt a chill down her spine, and retreated: "Give you 10 seconds to disappear from my eyes."

Alice Ferguson turned her head to look in the direction of the door, and seemed to be calculating whether she could get out of the bedroom in 10 seconds, then nodded at Simon, turned around and walked out on small black high heels. Leaving the bedroom and gently closing the door, the new housekeeper stood at the door and exhaled slowly, the corners of her mouth twitched slightly, and a faint smile appeared on her originally cold face.

There was a sound from the direction of the stairs, and Alice Ferguson quickly picked up her mood and walked over with her feet raised.

The two girls walked upstairs with a suitcase each, and when they saw Alice, they stopped, with obvious expressions in their eyes.

A bit on guard.

Alice walked to the two women, looked at them lightly, and said, "Alison Norris, Betsy Hope, a and b, you will also be under my control in the future."

Alison retorted: "We only follow the boss and won't listen to you."

Alice said: "This is what Madam means. If you are not satisfied, you can talk to Madam."

Alison wanted to say something else, but Becky pulled her and said, "Madam, let's move these two boxes into the master bedroom."

Alice nodded, walked to the other side of the corridor, and said, "Come with me."

The party time at Hearst's house was seven o'clock in the evening, and it was past five o'clock in the afternoon when Simon and his party arrived in Greenwich. After getting busy and settling in the villa, Simon and Janet quickly set off for the Hearst family's mansion.

"You must know about the Spanish-American War. Although it was all a century ago, after almost a hundred years of accumulation, the potential influence of the Hearst family is actually stronger." In the car, Janet and Simon chatted about this matter: "Speaking of which, the influence of the Murdoch family in Australia is similar to that of the Hearst family in North America. In the 1960s, Murdoch wanted to enter the UK, when Australia was still There are very strict capital controls, and large sums of money are not allowed to go overseas at will, do you know how he does it?"

"Um?"

"That was 1968, it happened to be an election year, and Murdoch mobilized the strength of the entire News Corporation to help a candidate he supported to ascend to the throne of prime minister, and even for this reason another, um, name I don't Remember, it was another competitor who was slandered as a Japanese spy. Later, the candidate he supported was elected and soon signed a charter approving News Corporation's investment in the UK."

Simon didn't expect the Murdoch family to be so powerful in Australia in the 1960s, but he quickly asked: "In this case, why did Murdoch fail to prevent the introduction of the media restriction bill and could only sell the seventh TV network?"

Australia's Seventh Television Network, which Johnston Holdings is taking over from the Qintex Group, was originally owned by the Murdoch family.

In order to prevent media platforms from controlling public opinion, Australia introduced a media restriction act in the 1970s, which did not allow print media groups to own public television networks. The same is true here in the United States. Print media giants like the Hearst family can only get involved in cable TV networks like espn. This is the result of deregulation with the government in the 1980s.

Janet said: "Murdoch is too mercenary. He will support whoever is beneficial to him, and he will not hesitate to abandon those who have lost their value, so there has been a lack of firm allies. In the 1970s, it happened that A prime minister who's been running on News Corp for a long time comes to power and then he's out of luck. My grandfather said Murdoch is a businessman without a position and can cooperate, but that's all."

Simon's memory of the wiretapping scandal came to his mind. That incident was also attributed to a collective backlash after the British political circles were suppressed by News Corp for a long time.

Thinking of this, Simon asked again: "Murdoch should also be involved in the abolition of inheritance tax in Australia?"

"My grandfather was in charge of liaison and coordination at the time, and the Murdoch family, the Fairfax family, the Pike family, and many other forces were involved." Janet seemed reluctant to talk about this matter, and quickly changed the subject. Dao: "In addition, it is a coincidence that the Hearst family has always been a supporter of the Democratic Party, which also helps us to establish more cooperative relations."
