I earn really hard money

Chapter 277

"Mr. He, that guy took his men back to the police station after closing the team yesterday. He didn't investigate any burglary and murder at all..."

On the Knight Fifteenth, who was galloping from Cambridgeshire to London, Gourav sat in the co-pilot position of Eliza and was reporting the situation to He Xia. He said that "that guy" was the police officer who troubled He Xia under the Newton apple tree yesterday. .

"After get off work, that guy first went to the bar for a drink. At ten past eight o'clock, he rode his bicycle home and left the car in the bar. His wife divorced him, and he lived with his mother, with a teenage boy. Little girl, except for the time when I went back to the police station, I stared at him the whole time, and I didn't see anyone meet him..."

After Gourav finished talking about the situation, he saw that Boss He was leaning on his chin in silence, and said, "Mr. He, do you need me and Greg to invite him to have a chat?"

He Xia shook his head slightly, and said: "There is no need to talk, I can probably guess who is behind this incident, he is just a pawn or bait in someone else's hands, don't touch him, but I don't quite understand his purpose of doing this ..."

What's the point of fabricating a particularly idiotic-sounding reason to set the blame, entrusting a police officer with a few police officers to perform an almost impossible mission?
Is this the level of aristocrats?

I can't!

really can't...

Right at this moment, He Xia's phone rang, and he took it out to have a look. Serena, who was sent to investigate the Lunstroma family, called!

"Ha, what a coincidence..."

He Xia answered the phone and said, "Dear Serena, do you know that I have been troubled by the Lunstroma family? I hope you can provide me with some useful information!"

"What?" Serena was slightly startled, and hurriedly asked, "Xia, are you okay?"

"You listen to me with confidence, of course there is no problem, but I'm in a bad mood!" He Xia said.

"Sorry, Xia, I do have some news, but...it probably has nothing to do with your bad experience."

Serena said in a low tone.

"It's always good to have news, let's hear it!"

"Five days later, the Ark Foundation of the Lensterma family will hold a charity auction dinner in Geneva, Switzerland. I wonder if you are interested in participating, and by the way, learn about the Duke's family!"

"Charity auction dinner?"

"Yes, a good sister told me the news. This is the practice of the Ark Foundation. Every year in this season, an autumn auction is organized. The famous paintings and jewelry handed down by the family are taken out for charity auctions, and the funds raised are All for foundation operations."

"Not only the Lunsterma family's own auction items, but also the guests who participated in the charity auction will also provide some items. The sisters who participated in the charity auction told me that the atmosphere is very good."

He Xia thought about it. If it was a special auction held by Sotheby's or Christie's, such as watches and famous paintings, he would be interested in participating in it. The auction held by the Kronsterma family would be...

"Selina, this auction doesn't seem to mean much to me. On what occasion, do I really have the opportunity to learn more about the noble family of Lunstrom?"

"Well, of course, most members of the Lunstermar family will attend the charity dinner, including the Duke of Lunstermar, as well as the Duke's eldest son and eldest grandson. Also, since last year, the auction price at the charity auction The provider of the highest item, if you are interested, you can serve as the honorary president of the charity foundation!"

"I don't know if this reward is attractive to you!"

Charity is a very popular activity among the upper class.

After absorbing a lot of wealth from the society, whether it is for their own reputation or to avoid taxes, they will naturally choose to do charity. It doesn’t matter whether they are sincere or not. The important thing is to do it or not to do it!
One of the best ways to increase public awareness is to do charity. Being able to become the honorary president of a large-scale charitable foundation has a very positive impact and will be of great help to enhance the corporate image!

Especially those groups whose products target the general public need to do their utmost to enhance the positive image of their company in the hearts of the public!
This is also a way that the Lensterma family came up with to stimulate everyone to come up with good auctions.

For the Ark Foundation, the annual autumn auction is a very important source of income!

"Honorary President!"

He Xia raised her eyebrows slightly, and a look of interest suddenly appeared on her face.

He could even imagine the surprised expression on the Duke of Lenstermar's or his eldest son Boraton's face when they found out that an enemy they had never met before became the Honorary President.

Breaking into the enemy's interior is undoubtedly the best way to understand, and maybe I can still play a few big holes for the charity foundation...

Things get interesting!
"I will think about it, if not, you can go by yourself, but even if I participate, you can't be with me!"

He Xia gave an ambiguous answer.

As if this decision was expected by Serena, she smiled and said: "Of course, we have to act separately, which is more conducive to the performance at the charity dinner. We don't know each other. Because of Tuke Byers, you put me Kicked!"

Serena even thought of the reason.

He Xia was very satisfied, and said: "I will give you a number later, he is my dress consultant, and I will give you a set of evening dress you like!"

"Xia, thank you so much, I love you, muma!"

A set of expensive evening dresses usually cost tens of thousands of euros, and it was difficult for Serena to afford them. She could only rent them, and she couldn't rent the best ones. With He Xia's promise, her vanity was greatly satisfied.

After the two parties hung up the phone, He Xia couldn't help thinking about what happened under the Newton apple tree yesterday afternoon. He felt it was ridiculous, so he shook his head and stopped thinking about it. He was about to arrive in London and signed a contract with Pilias at noon. Series of contracts, not a distraction.

Returning to London from Cambridgeshire is like coming from a town to the city. The towering buildings, the dense flow of people, and the breathless depression are completely different from the relaxed and bookish atmosphere of Cambridgeshire.

In the impression of many people, Britain lacks food, but London is the city with the highest density of Michelin restaurants in the world, not one of them...

Facts have proved that as long as the economy is sufficiently developed, the vacancies in other areas will always be filled slowly. If one's own country can't do it, then let the talents of the whole world fill it.

He Xiagenpilias made an appointment to meet at Gordon Ramsay Restaurant, which is an extremely famous three-star Michelin restaurant in London, and the chef is the famous "Hell Chef" Gordon Ramsay.

Chef Hell has eight restaurants under his personal name, and this one in London is the one he often resides in, and it is for this reason that he has received a three-star rating.

To be precise, the location of the restaurant is not in the bustling city of London, but in a small town not far from the suburbs, adjacent to a tributary of the Thames River. The dining environment is very beautiful!

Under normal circumstances, reservations for Ramsay Restaurant can be scheduled for two weeks later, and ordinary tourists want to make reservations at least one month in advance!

It's just that this kind of thing is not a problem for either He Xia or Pilias. The restaurant chosen by the two at the same time is between the wealth and personal social status under the names of both parties, and the payment is irresistible. All the excellent seats belonged to He Xia and Pilias.

The terrace next to the small river used to accommodate four tables of diners, but today only two tables were opened, and the dining area was separated from the interior of the restaurant with a screen to create a visual barrier.

He Xia, Pilias and the legal advisers of both sides sat at the same table, and the rest sat at the same table.

The dining table was not cutlery, and it was not yet time to serve, but it was full of documents.

"laboratory!"

There was a hint of confusion on Pilias' face. He just found out that He Xia bought the island to build a laboratory. This is so new...

"Xia, I think I'm involved in an incredible project, please tell me, right?"

Pilias asked excitedly.

He Xia had to tell Pilias, because the construction of Ania Island was about to start today, and Ferolio, as the main company in charge of infrastructure construction, must have received a lot of relevant news from Pilias, so it didn't hurt to say it in advance.

He Xia smiled and said: "At present, there is nothing special about it. It is just a laboratory for biotechnology. It mainly studies the genes and base pairs of the human body. I don't know much about them. It is mainly aimed at leading experiments. My professor once won the Nobel Prize, so I took it over, hahaha.”

He Xia said it easily, and Pilias listened seriously. His mind turned and he thought of something. He said in surprise: "Some time ago, a professor in a biology laboratory at Trinity College, Cambridge College published scientific research results, but was criticized by many people. It is said that Cambridge College was pressured to cut off funding to the professor's lab..."

"Xia, you just said you came from Cambridge, could it be..."

He Xia was not surprised that Pillas knew about this matter. His status has reached a certain height and there are many sources of information. As the largest and richest construction group in Spain, the Farorio Group can completely see a more real world.

"The old professor worked hard on genetic engineering research all his life, and overcame one difficulty after another. As a result, he was suppressed by his peers and politicians, and the funding broke and he couldn't continue!"

"No matter what the future holds, I hope that the old professor can continue to carry out the experiment. Even if there is no result, it doesn't cost much anyway. Just treat it as if I bought a few more Patek Philippes."

He Xia said lightly.

"Oh ho ho ho... How could Patek Philippe's little money support the operation of the laboratory, Xia, I heard about the laboratory of Trinity College..."

Having said that, Pilias leaned closer in front of He Xia, lowered his voice slightly and said, "I agree with that old professor's academic vision. If there is such a day, don't forget the friendship between us." friendship."

Pilias had learned about the academic exchange meeting, and he had a longing attitude towards Professor Smith's vision, which was the state of "wow, if only this could be done".

It doesn't matter if you don't know the follow-up development. Now you know that the person who took over the project and invested in rebuilding the laboratory is your business partner. It is of course not wrong to say hello in advance and make good friends.

He Xia smiled and waved his hands: "Others say that I'm crazy for investing in this experiment, and I can't see any prospects at all. Don't hold out hope. It's more practical to take good care of your body, haha!"

"Don't worry, don't look at me who is more than ten years older than you. Look at my skin. I usually pay attention to maintenance. It will be fine in another three or 40 years. By the way, look at it this way, you told me before that you would go to England to see me. A female doctor, it should be, hahaha..."

"No, no, that female doctor is another matter, haha!" He Xia looked sloppy, it's hard to say whether this kind of thing is true or not.

While talking and laughing, the two parties went over the contract. The most important ones were the two projects in Greece, and they reached a consensus on various details. As for other projects such as island reconstruction and castle renovation, they were all small projects, and the bigger ones belonged to The cruise terminal behind Xia Tian Manor.

There was no problem with the contract. After He Xia swiped a pen, more than 5 million euros (the down payment for some engineering projects) flowed into the account of the Ferolio Group!
boom!
To celebrate the cooperation between the two parties, Pilias opened a bottle of champagne and poured half a glass for He Xia himself.

"Xia, Dom Pérignon P3 Rosé [-] is hard to find, cheers for us, cheers for your laboratory!"

The market price of an ordinary Dom Pérignon P3 is not high, only [-] Euros.

The first rosé was from 3. Due to its unique color, it was loved by the rich and famous. The rosé of an ordinary year will be more expensive than the ordinary P[-], about [-] Euros.

According to Pilias, 3 was a very exciting year for Dom Pérignon P[-] Rosé, which is a collector's item in the circle and sought after by many high-ranking people.

He bought it by accident at an auction. The six bottles of champagne totaled [-] euros, and a single bottle was [-] euros!
That's a pretty high price for a bottle of Champagne.

The last time I opened this champagne was to win half of the airport project, which was more profitable than this time, but I didn’t make friends. Compared with earning tens of millions of euros, Pilias cared more about He Xia’s relationship!
He Xia has heard a little about Dom Pérignon and doesn’t know much about the wonderful stories, but the charm of P3 rosé lies in its unique and charming color, even ordinary people who don’t understand champagne will fall in love with it. One of the places of people.

"Thank you for your kind words, Pilias, and cheers!"

The two toasted and drank it down.

"Xia, there is something quite private, but I can't help being curious and want to ask. Please forgive me if I offend you."

Putting down his wine glass, Pilias pushed aside the stack of documents on the table. After talking about business, it was time to exchange feelings.

He Xia spread out her hands, meaning that it's okay.

"Hungerford Castle Manor was very hot at the end of the last century and the beginning of this century, that is, a few years after the movie was released, but unfortunately no one could find a seller. I can ask, how did you get that Neverland Manor into your income? Is it under your name?"

Pilias was quite curious about this matter, and he had troubled many European celebrities, and even rich people from the other side of the Atlantic participated in it, but in the end they all got nothing.

Later, as the Titanic film gradually cooled down, the castle manor also slowly cooled down. In the past ten years or so, no one has paid attention to it, and the Hungerford manor has been left to grow wildly, and it is already in dilapidated condition.

"That was a long, long time ago..."

He Xia [actor] has a high level of skill, her eyes are deep into the distance, and her whole body is immersed in the years.

It's not entirely acting, because He Xia is indeed recalling the thrilling night.

After experiencing a series of world missions, the Titanic world seems the most normal and ordinary, without martial arts, zombies, gangsters, or drag racing, but it is such a world that has the greatest impact on people.

Pilias looked at He Xia intently, and the entire terrace of the restaurant fell into silence, only the sound of the river flowing beside him.

After a long while, He Xia came out of the "memory" and said: "This matter involves a long-standing relationship in my family. A hundred years has passed in a hurry, and the ancestors have passed away. Let's not mention it."

I have to say that the [actor] skills are very good, and He Xia's acting skills shocked everyone present, and everyone couldn't help but imagine the relevant plot in their minds.

Pilias had a deep expression on his face, and after a long time, he made a sorry expression: "Xia, I shouldn't have asked about this matter. In order to express my apology, please inform your housekeeper that the fee for the helipad will not be paid."

He Xia thought to himself, Hungerford Castle has shocked everyone so much, what kind of sensation will it cause when the Heart of the Ocean comes out?
"Pilias, how about we change the subject?"

Pilias nodded quickly, wishing for nothing in his heart, and hurriedly asked: "Tuk Byers acted like a lunatic that night, which troubled me very much, Xia, hasn't he bothered you recently?"

He Xia first asked Lucy to order the kitchen to serve, and then said to Pilias: "The Tukto sent an apologetic gift to my manor on the second day of the reception. Behaving so poorly."

"It's a pity that he has less normal time and more time to go crazy. I will try to avoid dealing with Byers Group in the future!"

Pilias was full of disgust. He knew that Tuke was using madness as a mask, but it was really disgusting!

"By the way, speaking of the reception, I suddenly remembered that there will be a charity auction in Geneva a few days ago, do you know?"

He Xia talked about it as if nothing had happened.

Pilias nodded indifferently and said: "Since more than ten years ago, the Ferolio Group has participated in the charity auction of the Ark Foundation every year."

"Looking at your expression, it seems that you are reluctant?" He Xia asked tentatively.

"Many rich people, including me, have to show their enthusiasm for charity, so every year there are not fifty but thirty auctions, receptions, and appreciation parties held in the name of charity in Europe... ...you're young, you're not bored enough, and you'll understand in a few years."

Pilias pinched his forehead, he seemed to be very troubled by these entertainments, and he had to participate in them, and even organized the party himself, just for the sake of fame!

　Almost cured, only a slight sore throat and runny nose, Ness!

　　Thank you for your greetings from all book friends, and I wish you all good health, strong men, mighty and majestic!
