The title of Microsoft's top management is effective. That night, Neil brought the contract to Feng Yu's hotel.
When the door opened, 6 tall bodyguards walked out, and Neil's legs turned to jelly. Is Mr. Feng going to do something to him?
Feng Yu will not do anything to Neil. After Wilson reviewed the contract, Feng Yu signed it and wrote a 1 million USD cheque to Neil. He told Neil that the extra 10,000 USD is his tip and hopes that the paperwork can be settled as soon as possible.
Neil nodded. No wonder Feng Yu is one of Microsoft's top executives. Feng Yu is so generous. 10,000 USD as a tip!
The bodyguards looked at Neil enviously. This little thing earned him 10,000 USD in tips. The employer was too generous!
Feng Yu was also observing the bodyguards secretly. Luckily, they were only looking at him with envy and not jealousy. He is satisfied with these bodyguards.
Feng Yu did not move into that apartment immediately. He still needs to buy some new things. He can keep the furniture, but he needs to get new appliances.
If he can use Wind and rain, he will use Wind and rain. If he can't use Wind and rain, he will use Philips. He will not consider other brands for the time being. Also, he will give away all the useless books in his study. Feng Yu is not interested in using those useless books to decorate his bookshelf. He will buy a few Wuxia novels by Gu Long, Jin Yong, and other famous Wuxia novels.
Of course, Feng Yu must also buy economic magazines. For example, < Forbes >, < Fortune >, < Bloomberg Businessweek >, < The Economist >. These are the top 4 financial magazines. Feng Yu must buy them.
But Feng Yu is not interested in buying economic books. In Feng Yu's previous life, which one of those who read Carnegie's books on success copied Carnegie? Those books are just chicken soup for the soul. Everyone knows about the principles, but because of Carnegie's name, everyone believes in those books.
To Feng Yu, those books are bullsh * t! Feng Yu might as well get someone to write < Suboptimal Health >. < Suboptimal Health > contains information that many people do not know.
As for that "cursed" house, Feng Yu asked Wilson to get the paperwork. He wants to demolish it and build a new one. He will use a courtyard to surround the two villas.
Feng Yu can keep dogs in the courtyard, and it can be isolated from the outside world. Maybe he can even build a helipad in the courtyard.
China's air traffic regulations are still in place, and private individuals are not allowed to buy helicopters. But in the US, it was much more relaxed, and the air traffic control was very lax. You just had to pay a lot more taxes.
Furthermore, where was this? This was Seattle, where the Boeing headquarters was located. Boeing did not only manufacture large planes and transport helicopters. They also had civilian helicopters, but they were not very famous. As long as one bought a helicopter from Boeing, one would not have to worry about the paperwork.
Feng Yu could feel the inconveniences of living in the US. To build a house, one must get the consent of the neighbors. The house cannot be too high or too many floors. It cannot block other people's sunlight. The style of the house cannot be different from other people's houses.
I can't do this, I can't do that. Damn it, there's a whole bunch of crap to deal with!
Luckily Wilson and Ralph are around. If not, Feng Yu will be bored to death if he had to do all these himself. Feng Yu must inform the neighbors when he changes the flooring. If not, the police will be called!
As the house is getting bigger, Feng Yu needs to hire some housekeepers. For example, cleaning staff, Chinese cooks, gardeners, etc.
Although these can be done by temporary workers, Feng Yu felt it is better to hire regular people. He does not want to meet strangers every time. Who knows if there are bad people among them?
… …
One house is renovated, and the other house is being renovated by a construction company. Today, there will be a few housekeepers coming for an interview, and Feng Yu wants to make the decision himself.
"Boss, this is a couple. They used to be housekeepers for a Chinese engineer at Boeing. But that engineer was transferred to another state, and they are temporarily unemployed. They used to run a Chinese restaurant, and I heard their dishes are good. But I do not know much about Chinese food, and I can't judge them. "Ralph explained to Feng Yu.
"Are they from the US?"
"No. They are from Hua Xia. They are here on work visas. This month, if they can't find a job, they will be deported. Their son is studying at the University of Washington, and they are here to earn money for their son's tuition fees. Their son will be graduating next year. "
Feng Yu nodded. Studying in the US can be done on their own. In Feng Yu's previous life, Feng Yu had been working part-time in his university. Maybe this student's parents think it is easy to earn money in the US. After all, in recent years, many people think that money is everywhere in the US.
Of course, if one is willing to work hard in the US, he will be able to earn more than in China.
"Nice to meet you, Mr Feng." Two middle-aged couple dressed in plain clothes walked in. They look restrained and even bowed to Feng Yu. The man said this in English.
"I am from Hua Xia. You can speak Chinese."
Both of them relaxed. The man bowed and said. "Mr Feng, I am a gardener in China. My skills are very good. Also, I know how to clean swimming pools, electrician, and can repair many things. I can do a lot of things. If you can keep me, I can ask for a lower salary. My wife knows how to cook, and she used to run a small restaurant in China. She can also do housekeeping, and my salary is not high. "
"Salary is not a problem. I am curious. Do you know English? How did you get your work visas in the US? "
These two men's sons know that engineer from Boeing. That engineer is also Chinese, and he felt pity for them. So, he used an intermediary company to help them get work visas. This way, they can come to the US to earn money.
But the engineer was only doing them a favor. Now that he is being transferred to another state, he will not be bringing them along. So, these two men lost their jobs.
The man had studied in high school and knows some simple English. It is hard for him to communicate with others, but it is not a problem for him to buy groceries. The woman does not know any English, but she looks clean.
"Take care of the lawn and flowerbed. I have asked my men to buy some vegetables in the kitchen. Make four dishes. If I am satisfied, we will talk about the salary. If not, don't tell me you are all from Hua Xia. " Feng Yu will not be kidnapped by favors. Furthermore, he does not know them. Sending them back to China should not be a problem.
"Thank you, Mr Feng. I will make sure you are satisfied." The two men bowed and stepped back. The woman went to the kitchen, and the man immediately went to the garage to look for tools. Both of them are trying their best to impress Feng Yu.
"There are other people. Call them in and continue the interview."
