Reborn as a small European country

Chapter 215
Earl of Aberdeen sells big stake - Scottish daily
The Earl of Aberdeen bought a farming village next to Edinburgh for £350m, which includes a cricket ground, a three-storey manor house, and a [-]th-century chapel. — Edinburgh Evening News
30 acres of land changed owners overnight, including [-] houses and farmhouses, shops——an entertainment tabloid in Edinburgh

"How did things get so big?"

Looking at the several newspapers in his hand, Joseph was a little dissatisfied, after all, this would give merchants a chance to raise prices.

"Don't worry, Lord Earl. The agricultural economy in Scotland is currently in a downturn. They are willing to sell the land in their hands. This will allow us to acquire it faster, and there is room for negotiation on the price."

If this is the case, then things are understandable. The land near Aberdeen is fixed, but the funds in the hands of the Earl of Aberdeen are even more fixed. Those who sell quickly can be sold, and those who are slow... Sorry, you can only Continue to lose money slowly.

"What kind of countryside is this..."

"Holt Village."

"Yes, how come Holt Village only cost £350 million?"

Alan didn't answer right away, but took out a map, pointed to the uneven terrain on it and said, "It's not suitable for planting here, so it's cheaper. Don't you often say that money buys horses..."

Joseph couldn't help smiling wryly. He didn't expect that Alan was still such a talented person, and he could turn the story of buying a horse with a lot of money to this point. But maybe Alan himself didn't know that the place he bought was not without economics. value.

The construction system can only be used domestically, which is a pity. Although Aberdeen and the surrounding land belong to Joseph, this is the UK after all, so the construction system cannot be used here.But not only the construction system can change the economy here, but also fruit trees.

The uneven terrain is not suitable for growing food and vegetables, but there is no big problem in growing melons and fruits. Scotland is more ecological. As long as good seeds are selected, most of the good products are grown here.

In addition, this place is suitable for building hunting grounds. The hunting grounds in Aberdeen were relatively flat. Even if they had been bred for many years, there were not many ferocious beasts. But this forest is different.

"How much money do you have now?"

"Most of the stocks were sold for 300 million pounds, plus some previous savings and some of your personal assets, about 2000 million pounds, and now it only costs 350 million pounds."

"Let's build an Aberdeen town! A real Aberdeen town, a town integrating finance and commerce, is 3000 million pounds enough?"

Although Nord is not very financially rich at this time, there is no problem with 3000 million pounds. 3000 million pounds to build a town and 2000 million to buy land. It can be said that Joseph will lay down a real territory for the future Earl of Aberdeen.

It is not a big problem to exchange 2000 million pounds for [-] acres of land, and the annual rent of the town must be quite a lot. As long as the future Earl of Aberdeen is not too bad, then the stable development is enough to guarantee Aberdeen's lineage Worry-free for generations.

"What is Joseph trying to do?"

John was very surprised to see some notices of recruiting craftsmen appearing on the street. The rich second generation and the big head next to him were also a little puzzled, but they didn't say anything, but they were going to go back and ask Joseph.

"I think it should be to build an independent territory!"

"territory?"

Li Chaojun shrugged and explained: "Although there is no such thing as private land in Britain, if this area is purchased by Joseph, then what is the difference between rent and tenants compared to before the war?"

"The British government..."

"This is Scotland, my John."

John scratched his head, and suddenly an idea came to his mind, his background was not very good, at least he was incomparable with the rich second generation and the big head, and in this case, this might be his way out.

an hour later, the castle
"John, what did you say?"

"I have a minor in economic management, how about I become the future mayor?"

He said he was the mayor, but in fact John was thinking of the title of Prime Minister of the Aberdeen Dominion. The town was under his control from planning to development, and he felt excited thinking about it.

"you……"

Although he didn't know what John was thinking in his heart, Joseph couldn't help being a little shocked. What and what was all this, John should have a better future.

"How about Joseph, you have to believe in my ability."

"I believe, I believe in your ability, but..."

"No but, then I think you have agreed to this matter, the Prime Minister of the Aberdeen Dominion, the Prime Minister of the Aberdeen Dominion hehe..."

Ok!It was only at this time that Joseph understood why John was so excited, but... forget it, he would naturally shrink back when he got tired of it.

What Joseph didn't know was what kind of genius he was looking for for his future Aberdeen heir. It should be his credit that the Aberdeen Group can occupy the forefront of Europe's top [-] in the future.

Huaxia Qingmei County

Li Xiaoxi, who woke up from the lunch break, walked out of the room with eyes wide open, and saw that there was only one guard left. She looked at him with some doubts and asked, "Uncle Hei, why isn't Uncle Bai here?"

Uncle Hei and Uncle Bai are naturally based on their skin colors. Not only her, but the rest of the Li family also have different names for the two guards. Foreign names are too difficult to remember, so they simply call them Da. Black and big white... There is no disrespect meant, it's just a simple name.

"He has other things to do, he will be back in a while, what's wrong with Miss Xi?"

"No, it's okay, where's my mother?"

"Mrs. Li? Mrs. Li has gone to work, and so has Mr. Li."

"Oh!"

Turning her eyes, Li Xiaoxi began to have some thoughts.

At the same time, the Li family and his wife were very popular and surrounded by the workers. Naturally, the topic was about the two cars in front of the door and the foreign devils.

"Old Li (Mother Li), is the big black one your uncle or the big white one your uncle?"

"Go, go, go, that's the bodyguard arranged by my uncle. It is said that it is a retired special force. It kills people without blinking an eye. It is very powerful."

It is a fact that the special forces retired, but killing people without blinking is completely imaginary. Of course, it is true. If you let them kill without blinking, there is no problem.

"The two small cars should be big cadres!"

"It's the car of the municipal party committee. It seems to be Xiaohan who my uncle asked them to pick up."

"Your uncle is a big cadre of the municipal party committee? My God, how big a cadre would be to be able to use foreign devils as bodyguards!"

"What big cadre, my uncle is a half-breed of England and ours, what kind of earl in England is, anyway, it means aristocrat."

"Earl? The earl of Duke, Marquis, Bo, Zi, and male?"

"That's right, that's the earl, but it's not from our country, it's from England."

"Of course it's not from our country. It's been many years since liberation, and it's still worthwhile to have an earl."

"Then your uncle is a foreign devil."

"Didn't I say everything, he is of mixed race, his father is a British aristocrat, and his mother is a Han Chinese."

Jijizaza was full of quarrels, and on the other side, Mr. Li's old man was also surrounded by a group of people, but they were talking about another topic.

"This time you are well-developed, immigrate soon!"

"Immigrants, it's best to stay in the country honestly, it's so chaotic outside, and Xiaoxi still has to go to school."

"I heard that foreign education is better, and I didn't keep talking about immigrating to Nord a while ago. Nord has a good education and makes a lot of money. Britain is a big country, so it should be better than Nord!"

"Then don't go, it's better for us at home."

"I said, Lao Li, why are you so stubborn."

"What are you doing? If you don't work hard, and you, Zhang Degui, what's so good abroad, aren't you afraid that the police will arrest you?"

"Director, why are you arresting me? I haven't done anything illegal."

"It's not good to say that foreign countries are good, why do you dare to talk back?"

"Okay, I can't afford to offend you, let me avoid the assembly!"

"This guy."

The director shook his head and ignored him, but went directly to Li's father and offered to hand him a cigarette.When did Li's father see this side of the director?He hurriedly took the cigarette, and was about to thank him when he saw the secretary coughing not far away, which scared Li's father to hide the cigarette in a hurry.

"Old Li, I'm not here to trouble you, smoke if you want! I smoke one when I can't help it, it's nothing!"

As if afraid that the Li family's father would not believe his words, the secretary took the initiative to ask for one from the embarrassing workshop director, then put it in his mouth and smoked it, only to see that there were only two people left who breathed a sigh of relief.

"Secretary Zhang of the County Party Committee is going to visit your house tonight, so prepare a little bit!"

The Li family's father can no longer be treated as he was a few years ago. The deputy secretary-general of the municipal party committee spoke respectfully. He is just a small secretary, how dare he speak recklessly?Speaking of the county official's visit, it was also in a negotiating tone. If you don't want to, then find another time directly. This is what the county official said.

Of course, officially, it can't affect people's rest. In fact, how did he think about other people at other times?He is a high-ranking county official, so he can visit whenever he wants, so why won't he let him in?
"Secretary Zhang of the county party committee? That's..."

"Yes, it's our parent officer. He is very grateful to you for helping Qingmei County to cultivate such an excellent girl. It's normal to visit."

really normal?The father of the Li family is not a fool either, he understands that this is all for my son-in-law's sake, otherwise what kind of deputy secretary-general of the municipal party committee and senior county officials would he be able to get in touch with as an ordinary person?

What he didn't know was that Deputy Secretary-General Wang was also on his way to Qingmei at the same time. At the same time, the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee and the Secretary-General of the Municipal Party Committee were also here.The Earl of Aberdeen, he is quite a rich guy, if he can invest some money in the West Sea, then...
