Leaving Kennedy International Airport, the group did not return to Manhattan, but rushed to Greenwich, Connecticut, next to New York.

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

Compared with Greenwich Village, where artists gather, Greenwich city is as famous as the upper east side of Manhattan and East Hampton of Long Island. Many rich people often have properties in the upper east side and the surrounding Greenwich and East Hampton. They usually live in the upper east side on weekdays and return to the suburban mansion on rest days.

In private, Janet has been helping Simon buy property. While living in New York a few days ago, he bought a manor in Greenwich again.

Not only that, Janet continues to look for real estate in cities such as Las Vegas, Chicago, Boston, Washington, and Miami on the East and west coasts of the United States. Simon's current wealth is enough to support his original idea that real estate would spread all over the world.

Before she came to the United States, Sophia Fischer had already bought a property in Greenwich to let her children go to school there. As a well-known rich area, Greenwich undoubtedly has the best education resources on the east coast.

It happens that the party Simon is going to attend tonight is also in the house of the Hurst family near Greenwich.

Several luxury cars shuttled through the East Coast's well-developed highway network and entered Greenwich, Connecticut, in less than an hour. Sofia's house for the children is in the center of Greenwich, while Simon's manor is in the northern suburbs. After the lunch invitation of housekeeper Gao at noon tomorrow, everyone will separate.

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

Outside the manor is a symbolic stone parapet, but the terrain is obviously higher than the asphalt road nearby, so it is difficult for pedestrians and vehicles to directly peep inside.

Inside the low wall, dense shrubs and tall trees further set off the interior scene of the manor. These vegetation have not been taken care of, which is completely different from what Simon saw when he went to East Hampton to attend Steve Roth's party last time.

Mansions in the East Hampton area have well trimmed hedgerows and lawns, and the vegetation along the way in Greenwich is natural.

Simon always tends to have a sense of order, but he doesn't mean to change the pattern of the manor here.

Keeping nature is actually an order.

The manor covers an area of more than 30 acres, equivalent to 12 hectares. The overall shape is irregular quadrilateral. The North-South length is close to 500 meters, and the East-West boundary is different in length. The narrowest part of the north boundary is less than 100 meters, which is close to a lake, and the South boundary is close to an east-west asphalt road, with a length of more than 400 meters.

Simon and his party drove into the manor from the west entrance. Most of the manor was covered with vegetation of different heights. They drove along the curved asphalt corridor for about 200 meters. A European villa with blue roof and white wall appeared in front of them. There was an annex building on the east side of the main villa, which was obviously the residence of servants and servants.

Three cars stopped in front of the main villa, and a group of women in uniform black suits met them.

Janet immediately followed Simon out of the car, took the man's arm and motioned to the seven women who came forward with a smile, saying: "this is our housekeeping team in North America in the future. I picked it myself. Isn't it beautiful? Sofia is still in charge of Europe. "

Simon nodded and looked at the seven tall, fair skinned women who came to him. Subconsciously, he said, "it seems that they are too young."

Janet pinched Simon's arm discontentedly. "That's it. If you're not satisfied, you can choose for yourself. I don't care."

They whispered, and a short haired girl with delicate face and a little chilly temperament at the front of them reached out to Simon and said, "Hello, Mr. westrow, I'm Alice Ferguson."

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

After saying hello, Alice Ferguson leaned slightly and offered to introduce Simon to the other six pretty girls who were obviously eager to try. She said, "Mr. westrow, they are Mira, Amelia, Naomi, Doris, Isabel and Zoe."

After a quick introduction, the new housekeeper turned to Simon again and said, "Mr. westrow, let me show you around the villa."

Simon was very interested to see that several other girls who had not even been introduced were blocked by Alice Ferguson. They were obviously angry and defiant. He nodded with a smile and said, "good."

Janet kept smiling, listening to what Alice Ferguson said and letting Simon go, she said, "you go in. I'll arrange for them to pack."

Simon didn't refuse, and took the lead to the villa.

Alice Ferguson followed Simon step by step.

When they enter the villa, Simon looks around. The size of the villa is similar to that of his villa on the hillside of palisade in Los Angeles. The double storey villa is higher than some ordinary three storey buildings. The hall of the villa has only one floor, and the gorgeous crystal chandeliers are directly hung on the dome.Villa interior overall presents pure white decoration style, home decoration has obviously been changed, all belong to Simon like simple style.

With a few simple glances from left to right, Simon walked up the western spiral staircase to the second floor.

Alice Ferguson is still following Simon, and doesn't mean to introduce.

On the second floor, Simon stood in front of the corridor wall with a smile, looked at one of Janet's own paintings, and took the lead in saying, "how old are you this year?"

"27."

"Which university did you graduate from?"

"Princeton."

Simon drew back his eyes and continued to walk to the side of the corridor, with more dissatisfaction in his voice: "and then?"

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

"I got a Ph.D. in economics at the age of 27. It's amazing."

Alice Ferguson paused and corrected, "25."

"When people ask later, they say they are 27 years old."

"Why?"

"I say 27, if it's 27."

“…… Good

Simon opened a door and saw a bedroom. Seeing the French window leading to the terrace, I went in.

When he came to the terrace, Simon stood by the railing, looked at the busy people in front of the villa, and asked, "what's the title of your doctoral dissertation?"

"The U.S. foreign trade imbalance caused by Reagan's economic reform," said Alice Ferguson

"Are you interested in politics?"

"Thought about it, but gave up."

"Why?"

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

"Not necessarily. Maybe within ten years, there will be a woman president in the Federation."

"This possibility is close to zero."

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

"The pay is high enough to get better opportunities in the future."

"Well?"

"The directors of the four core businesses of westero are all women."

Simon asked with a smile, "I can hardly remember which four companies I invested in."

"Daenerys, melisandra, igrit, cersei."

"Well, which of the four companies has the greatest potential?"

Alice Ferguson hesitated and said, "Denise, or igritte."

"I only want you to say one."

"Igrit."

Simon flashed some accidents in his eyes, turned his back on the railing, looked at the girl in front of him again, and said, "in this case, help me to be a housekeeper for five years, and you can go to igritte. Of course, the premise is that you have to prove your ability. If I think you are more suitable to be a cleaner in igritte, then you have to sweep the floor. "

Alice Ferguson sipped her thin lips and said, "I need access. I need access to igritte."

"No problem. Besides, since you are so smart that you can get a doctorate at the age of 27, you should study computer technology again in recent years."

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

Simon glanced at the girl's white neck and said, "is there any other degree, let's talk about it?"

"No more."

"Keep learning, and get another doctor. Anyway, you're just helping me with my real estate. I have a lot of free time," Simon said. Without waiting for the girl's response, he asked, "by the way, do you have a boyfriend?"

"No

"Really?"

"I had a few girlfriends."

“……”

Simon is speechless. No wonder he always feels strange.

Seeing Simon choking, Alice Ferguson added, "but I don't refuse the opposite sex."

Simon nodded, his eyes deliberately added a bit of aggression to look at the lace in front of him and said, "I understand. It's a hint."

Alice Ferguson shook her head. "No, it's explicit."

Simon evil to Dan biansheng, raised his hand to signal: "go to lock the bedroom, I want you now."

Alice Ferguson shook her head: "not now. Today is my critical time. There are no contraceptives in this bedroom. If I get pregnant by accident, I will ask you for all the rights that this child should have. "

Simon is bully to insist: "don't worry, I know a lot of women will not get pregnant intimate way."

"I don't accept alternative sexual behavior."

Simon clenched his fist with a slight crackle of his knuckles and said, "I'll make you accept it."

Alice Ferguson still looked at Simon and said seriously, "I'll bite you."Well, it's brutal.

Simon noticed that Alice Ferguson occasionally showed her beautiful white teeth when she spoke, but she only felt a chill in her back. He retreated and said, "I'll give you 10 seconds to disappear from my eyes."

Alice Ferguson turned her head and looked in the direction of the door. She seemed to be calculating whether she could get out of the bedroom in 10 seconds. Then she nodded to Simon, turned around and walked out on the little black heels. Leave the bedroom, gently with the door, the new housekeeper stood at the door, slowly breathed a breath, slightly raised the corner of the mouth, the original cold face showed a faint smile.

There was a noise coming from the stairway. Alice Ferguson quickly picked up her mood and walked over.

The two girls, each carrying a suitcase, went upstairs. When they saw Alice, they stopped. Their eyes were obviously on guard.

Alice went up to the girls, gave them a light look, and said, "Alison Norris, Becky hope, a and B, you'll be in my charge later."

Alison retorted, "we're only with the boss. We won't listen to you."

Alice said, "that's what Madame means. If you're not satisfied, you can talk to her."

What else did Alison want to say? Becky pulled her and said, "madam, let's move these two boxes into the master bedroom."

Alice nodded, went to the other side of the corridor and said, "come with me."

The Hurst party was at seven in the evening, and it was five in the afternoon when Simon and his party arrived in Greenwich. After a bit of busyness and settling down in the villa, Simon and Janet soon set out for the Hurst family house.

"You must know that the Spanish American war was a century ago, but after nearly 100 years of accumulation, the potential influence of the Hurst family is actually more powerful." On the bus to Hurst mansion, Janet and Simon talked about it: "speaking of it, the Murdoch family's influence in Australia is similar to that of the Hurst family in North America. In the 1960s, Murdoch wanted to enter the UK. At that time, Australia still had very strict capital control, and large sums of money were not allowed to go overseas at will. Do you know what he did?"

"Well?"

"It was 1968. It happened to be an election year. Murdoch mobilized the strength of the whole News Corporation to help one candidate he supported to become prime minister. For this reason, he even slandered another, I don't remember his name, in short, another competitor as a Japanese spy. Later, the candidate he supported was elected and soon signed a charter to approve News Corporation's investment in the UK. "

Simon didn't expect that the Murdoch family had been so strong in Australia since the 1960s. However, he quickly asked, "in this case, why didn't Murdoch stop the introduction of the media Restriction Act and have to sell the seventh television network?"

Johnston holdings is taking over Australia's seventh television network from qintex group, which was originally owned by the Murdoch family.

In order to avoid media platforms controlling public opinion, Australia introduced a media Restriction Act in the 1970s, which did not allow paper media groups to own public television networks. In fact, the same is true in the United States. The paper media giants like the Hurst family can only set foot in cable TV networks like ESPN now, which is the result of deregulation with the government in the 1980s.

Janet said: "Murdoch is too mercenary, who is good for him, he will support who, and will not hesitate to abandon those who have lost their use value, so he has been lack of firm allies. In the 1970s, it happened that a prime minister who had been run by News Corporation for a long time came to power, and then he had bad luck. My grandfather said that Murdoch is a businessman who has no position and can cooperate, but that's all

Simon's memory of the eavesdropping scandal came to mind. That incident, to sum up, was also a collective rebound in British politics after being suppressed by News Corporation for a long time.

With that in mind, Simon asked, "is Murdoch involved in the abolition of estate tax in Australia?"

"My grandfather was in charge of liaison and coordination at that time, and the Murdochs, the Fairfax, the pecks and many other forces were involved." Janet didn't seem willing to say more about it. She quickly changed the topic and said, "in addition, it's a coincidence that the hursts have always been supporters of the Democratic Party, which is also conducive to the establishment of more cooperative relations between us."
