1826 [Secretary Li]
After staying in New York for two days, Xia Tian and Wang Shixian returned to Hong Kong by plane.
Jennifer Connery took United Airlines flight and returned on the same day as them.
After returning to Hong Kong, Xia Tian first settled Jennifer Connery at the Berhau Hotel.
It was his hotel, and it was settled there and guaranteed that there would be no problems.
The next day, he helped Li Huatong get the job in the process and officially changed from a flight suit to his female assistant.
"You are by my side in the future and just help me handle these official duties. If you don't know anything, please ask Sandy for advice." Xia Tian ordered Li Huatong.
"Okay, Mr. Xia." Li Huatong nodded.
When the secretary Sandy saw that there was a woman with a beautiful face suddenly appeared beside the boss, she guessed that her identity must be extraordinary. She probably had an affair with the boss. She didn't dare to show off her airs as a senior and taught her carefully.
Li Huatong is also talented and learns things very quickly. She has already started to learn more in less than a week.
"Sandy, you and I have been with me for four years. We have been by my side to help me and have made a lot of contributions. Go back and you can go to Tianxia Media to be a vice president." Xia Tian ordered, "Ms. Li will take over your position."
"Boss, don't drive me away. I can't bear to leave you." Sandy said quickly when she heard this.
"Okay, just agree quickly and don't refuse anymore. Otherwise, I will really leave you behind." Xia Tian smiled when he saw this.
When Sandy heard this, she nodded quickly, "Okay, boss, I will do it well and live up to your expectations."
"Yeah, go." Xia Tian waved his hand.
"Yes." Sandy agreed and left Xia Tian's office.
After she went out, she couldn't help laughing happily. It's good to be the boss's secretary, but how can she be the boss of a person be more successful than her own? Although she is just the vice president this time, she is much more promising than the young secretary. I'm so happy.
Xia Tian also smiled, and then told Li Huatong, "Miss Li, you will be my secretary in the future. This position is very important. Do it well and don't let me down."
"Yes, Mr. Xia." Li Huatong nodded.
As a secretary in summer, she has a high salary and a good position, and she has no reason to refuse.
"Well, you go down first." Xia Tian waved his hand and said, "By the way, help me make a cup of coffee."
Li Huatong nodded, and after a moment, she brought a cup of coffee to Xiatian.
"Well, the taste is good. Miss Li, you are really good at making coffee." Xia Tian took a sip and praised with a smile.
"Thank you Mr. Xia for your praise." Li Huatong said happily. When she was a flight attendant, she had learned the skills of making coffee in order to better serve customers. So now she is praised and feels that her hard work is not in vain, so she is naturally happy.
"Okay, go." Xia Tian said with a smile while tasting her coffee.
It’s really beautiful to drink coffee made by beautiful Li Daren. Now it’s making coffee, and in the future it’s going to be a vegetarian soup.
...
"Mr. Xia, Mr. Zhao Shikang wants to see you." The phone suddenly rang. Xia Tian pressed the answer button and heard Li Huatong's soft voice.
"Okay, please come in." Xia Tian nodded.
A moment later, Zhao Shikang walked in, "Mr. Xia~"
"Mr. Zhao, please sit down." Xia Tian nodded and said.
"Mr. Xia, I have followed your instructions and conducted detailed investigations in many places in Kuwait and Iraq. This is the investigation report." Zhao Shikang handed over a thick stack of information to Xia Tiandao.
"Well, it's done in detail." Xia Tian opened it and nodded with satisfaction, "Mr. Zhao, thank you for your hard work."
This data has made quite detailed records of Iraq and Kuwait's oil and gas resources distribution, output, transportation, prices, etc. Although the data is numerous, it is not messy, but in an orderly manner. At first glance, it is done with care.
"Thank you Mr. Xia for your praise." Zhao Shikang said with a smile.
"Well, it seems that the oil wells in Kuwait and Iraq are really valuable for investment." Xia Tian smiled again.
Judging from the price alone, oil wells with the same output, Iraq, and Kuwait are more than twice as cheaper than Canada, so they are of great investment value.
However, given that the Middle East has always been a little peaceful and is a globally recognized powder keg, wars may break out at any time. Investment there faces great risks, unlike Canada, so it is worthwhile to be cheap in oil wells.
"Yes, if it weren't for the war, Iraq was one of the richest places in the world." Zhao Shikang sighed.
Before the Iraq-Iraq War, Iraq was one of the richest countries in the world. Because it is rich in oil, it earns tens of billions of dollars in exports every year, making the people's living standards quite high. Free medical care, free education, free housing, free elderly care, and every household has foreign buildings and cars.
However, the Iraq-Iraq War caused a sharp recession in Iraq, with direct economic losses of up to 350 billion US dollars. Originally, there were US$40 billion in foreign exchange reserves in the treasury, but after the war, they owed 80 billion US dollars foreign debts, of which US$14 billion owed to Kuwait.
This is also the reason why it invaded Kuwait. On the one hand, it was to plunder Kuwait's wealth, and on the other hand, it also hoped that after annexing it, it could exempt more than one billion yuan of debts.
"Well, that's it. Let's buy it according to the selected oil well." Xia Tian nodded, "By the way, Xiao Bushi, the son of the US president, also wants to participate. Go back and contact him and help him guarantee a loan of 100 million US dollars."
"One hundred million US dollars?! Mr. Xia, this is too much." Zhao Shikang said in surprise when he heard this.
Although 100 million US dollars is just a guaranteed loan, it is also a lot. If Xiao Bushi does not pay it back, the debt will be borne in the summer.
"Oh, I can't bear to leave my children and can't get a wolf. Only with giving up can I gain something. Xiao Bushi is the son of the US president. With this golden sign, when you go to Iraq and Kuwait to invest, you are still worried that you won't be able to achieve success." Xia Tian smiled.
The golden sign of Xiao Bushi is very useful. With his escort, his investment in Iraq will be guaranteed. After all, no matter how cruel Sada Thumb is, he will have to save face to the US president and will not harm their investment in Kuwait.
Take a step back and say that even if Sada Tho was confused for a moment, the oil well they bought would be in trouble. When Lao Bushi attacked Iraq in the future, the account can be calculated clearly.
At that time, no matter how much damage Sada Thumb causes, he will repay the principal and profit several times. So he will not suffer any loss.
"Mr. Xia is indeed far-sighted, I understand." Zhao Shikang nodded and said.
"Then go and do it. Remember, keep it confidential so that others will not find out." Xia Tian reminded again.
Chapter completed!
