Chapter 67 Children
"What? You're going to Europe? Are you crazy? That's a battlefield! A battlefield!" During dinner, as soon as Josie mentioned this matter, Margot strongly objected.

"Margo, I'm just using the condolence team to do some small business, and I'm not going to the front line to fight. There is no danger!" Seeing Margot's reaction so intensely, Josie persuaded with some helplessness.

"The current situation in Europe is in ruins. What money is there to make? Or is it that our family is short of money?" Margot said that she couldn't understand Josie's thoughts.

Not everyone has a keen eye and can see the countless business opportunities buried under the ruins of the European battlefield.

In Margot's opinion, according to the reports in the newspapers in the past about the devastation of life in Europe, where people are not clothed and food is not enough, what money can there be?Even if there is money, it is all in the hands of the nobles and the royal family. Even their government's money is probably almost earned by the Federation.

"Margot, to a certain extent, we are indeed short of that little money! Because it is not really only "a little" money, but a lot of money." Josie was not in a hurry, but explained very patiently : "As the source of modern civilization, in the past few hundred years, Europe has plundered almost a huge amount of wealth from all over the world. , My trip to Europe is enough to double our assets by more than ten times!"

Assets more than tenfold?
Margot couldn't help but startled when he heard this.

How much assets do she and Josie have on the surface?Among other things, only Josie's sugar factory, in the case of continuous orders from the military, in the past year, its assets have reached nearly tens of millions.

In addition to the bonds bought by Josie, himself, and the assets they just bought in Florida, Chicago, and Los Angeles, there are tens of millions.

So even without counting what she knew but never asked about Josie's private business, the assets of the two of them were more than 2000 million.

ten times?Isn't that more than 2 million?
What is that concept?
Before World War II, billionaires in the United States were still very rare. They were basically gathered in the eight major conglomerates such as Morgan and Rockefeller, and the number was very small.

That is to say, all kinds of billionaires have sprung up like bamboo shoots after rain, relying on the dividends of World War II.

So [-] million US dollars is indeed a very shocking value in this era.

Even Margot, who has lived a good life since she was a child and has no worries about food and clothing, has to be moved by it.

As for whether Josie has the ability to make money, Margot is not too worried. After all, at this time last year, their assets were only 700 million, and now they have tripled in just one year, which is enough to prove this. The strength of the little man.

So she hesitated, wondering if she should continue to stop Josie.

"Margot, I will go this time, at most half a year, for our future, it's worth it, isn't it?" Josie said softly, embracing Margot from behind.

"Okay, but you have to promise me that you can't go to places that are too dangerous, and take more people there. You can make more money if you run out of money, but people must come back safely." Margot turned and hugged Josie , said in a low voice.

"Of course, I will bring Vito and Brook with them. They are quite familiar with Europe, and there will be no danger. I am not going to fight, and I will not go to those dangerous places." Josie also hugged The woman in her arms whispered comfortingly.

But what Margot said next shocked him to the core.

"Josie, I'm pregnant!" After a long hug, Margot suddenly said faintly.

"What? When did it happen?" Josie held Margot's shoulders and asked, looking at her in surprise.

"Before we came to Los Angeles, I felt sick one day, so I made an appointment with the doctor. The doctor said I might be pregnant, and then I did the AZ test. I got a call from the doctor at home this morning to confirm... What? You are not happy ?” Margot blushed slightly, looked at Josie and asked.

The real modern pregnancy test only appeared after the 60s.

The pregnancy test method used in the 30s was a biological assay called the AZ-test. Although this test method was reliable, it was time-consuming, complicated and expensive.

So it's really normal to be notified after coming to Los Angeles for almost a week.

"No, no, no, how could I be unhappy, it's just... too unexpected, too surprising!" Josie was at a loss.

It is true that I am at a loss. Although I had a good life in my previous life, it is true that I have not married in my 30s.

So being a father for the first time in two lifetimes, the mood is naturally very complicated. Of course, the main thing is surprise.

However, Josie was not unprepared for Margot's pregnancy.

Although modern hard hats have been around since the 20s and popular in the 30s, Josie and Margot have never used them.

There is no family planning in the United States, and others use it because they are afraid that they will not be able to afford it.Josie and Margot's family did not have such worries.

Moreover, the two have been together for a year, and Margot is only pregnant now, which is actually too late.

Seeing Josie's expression of being helpless like a child, Margot couldn't help laughing, and then her face turned redder.

Because she suddenly remembered that it seemed that Josie was not yet 17 years old.

This guy was born in August 1928, now is April 8.

So in a way, this guy is really still a kid.

As a result, he is now going to be a father.

Of course, this kind of thing is really not a big deal in this day and age.

Even in the 21st century, the age of majority in many European countries is still 16.

Moreover, in the United Kingdom and the United States, 16 years old is equivalent to adulthood when there is independent income.

"Look at you, the doctor said, now it's only two months at most, when you come back from Europe, you can see the baby born." Margot said, stroking Josie's cheek.

"Why are you going to Europe? I can't stay at home with you and the child!" Josie said immediately. At this time, he couldn't care about any business. Now his mind is full of being a father.

"Okay, there is no need for that. Didn't you say that going to Europe is for our future. I also hope that when our child is born, there will be a billionaire father. As for the family, Francesca They're here, there won't be any problem!" Margot smiled slightly when she heard Josie's hotheaded words, and persuaded her instead.

"You're right, I have to earn a big fortune for our child, and prepare a big gift for him when he's born." Josie frowned when she heard this, and nodded after a while At the same time, he rolled his eyes and said, "Tell me, how about I buy Neuschwanstein Castle as a birthday present for our children?"

Although it's not the same world, the time when the war ends probably won't be much different.

At any other time, it is almost impossible to get the dream castle of Neuschwanstein Castle.

But if it was just after the end of World War II, coupled with Josie's Austrian identity, it would be very feasible to get this castle... This castle is on the border between the two countries, only a few kilometers away from Austria.

Although the area belonged to the French-occupied area at the end of World War II, it was actually the Americans who had the final say.

As long as Josie has a lot of PY with the military in the next time, as a victim of the war, he will seize land from Bavaria, what's the matter?

It's just that it must be late at that time, and it can't catch up with the birth of the child and the full moon, but it is completely acceptable as a first-year gift.

When the time comes, a boy will be a little prince, and a daughter will be a little princess, the kind with a castle.

Thinking about it makes me feel happy.

Not to mention the children, even Margot has been completely attracted by Josie's picture.

Disney has been established in the 20s. Although the period was a little bumpy, it is still a big company.Therefore, the name of Neuschwanstein Castle has also begun to spread in the United States with the rise of Disney.

Naturally, Margot also knew about this castle.

then……

"No, I want Neuschwanstein Castle, you have to find another way for the child's first birthday gift!" Margot ran back to the room after saying this, leaving behind a dumbfounded Josie.

Why does this woman even want to rob the unborn child?
