Chapter 5 The Fortune of Chairman Victor
Although Chairman Victor hoped that the little Jew and his grandmother could live in the Victor Manor, Huang Shuxian said that she wanted to catch up with Mrs. Mahler and still returned to the Mahler Villa next door.
"No wonder Victor Manor has more than 100 rooms, it turns out that their family can fill half of the house with a meeting when they come back, and in another 20 years, their family may not have any vacant rooms. Jia Lei stood at the intersection and said.
"Jia Lei, what are you doing standing here?" asked the little Jew puzzled.
"I'm watching an auto show!" Jia Lei said, pointing to the cars driving out on the road.
After the family reunion, the people of the Victor family dispersed, and when Jia Lei went out for a walk this morning, he was surprised to find that the luxury cars driving by the roadside were the latest or limited editions of major brands.
This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for a man, so Jia Lei just stood here and didn't move.
"Jia Lei, you are so rich, why don't you buy a car yourself, what are you doing standing here watching other people's cars?" asked the little Jew, tugging at the tie around his neck.
"I don't have a driver's license and I buy a car for the driver, I have already bought two cars, and any more is a waste! Besides, don't look at the fact that they drive luxury cars, the difference is big, just take a closer look. It's so greasy here!" Jia Lei said, pointing to a passing car, and then he handed the folder in his hand to Ke Xiao Jew.
"What is this?" asked the little Jew.
"The profile of the members of the Victor family, this is what I specially asked Pete to make for you overnight, you take this and take a closer look at the car on the road. Jia Lei said.
"Jia Lei, thank you so much, with this thing, at least I won't recognize the wrong person. Little Jew said happily.
"Now it's Hermes Victor, the son of your fourth uncle, Levi Victor, who is only 20 years old this year. But he actually drove a Ferrari F40, and the price of this car has soared since it was announced that it would stop production last year, and it has been fired to $1.6 million, which is equivalent to more than 8 million yuan!" Jia Lei casually pointed to a sports car that had just driven over.
"Cool!huh," said the little Jew, looking at the fiery red sports car that drove past, and couldn't help but whistle.
"Be serious, listen to me!" Jia Lei said angrily.
"Oh, you say!" the little Jew immediately stood in place.
"Your fourth uncle's mother, Mrs. Keller, was originally the secretary of the former chairman, and she married your grandfather half a year after the death of the former chairman. According to the information, Mrs. Keller's family is poor and has no additional financial resources, but after she passed away for so many years, your fourth uncle Levid Victor's living standard has always been very high, and there is more than one car in their family with such an expensive car? Where do you say their money comes from?" Jia Lei asked with squinted eyes.
"It must have been given to me by my grandfather!" replied the little Jew without hesitation.
"Huh...... Do you think it's possible? Tens of millions of dollars a year is not a small amount of money, your grandfather has never given so much money to any child, you must know that he has 12 children, and 10 million yuan a year is more than 10 million yuan a year! Chairman Victor would not do such a stupid thing. Jia Lei said.
"You mean to say that my fourth uncle is a cat?" the little Jew immediately reacted.
"Your fourth uncle has always been in charge of shipping, and there aren't too many ways to make money! It's just that I don't know if these ways are legal......," Jia Lei said.
"Let's find out if it's legal!" said the little Jew at once.
"After you go to work, remember to listen more, watch more, talk less, and find out what others are doing first, otherwise you will suffer alone in the Victor Group." Jia Lei said.
"Am I alone? Jia Lei, can't you really go with me?" asked the little Jew.
"No, the company is not a school, why should I go there? If you take me there, people will laugh at me?" Jia Lei shook his head and said.
"Since you're not going to the Victor Group, what do you want to do?" asked the little Jew.
"I've got a lot to do! I'm going to see my uncle to-day, and then I'm going to visit my partner, Count Sbeckdy, to discuss with him what our company plans are for this year, and ......," Jia Lei began to introduce himself to the little Jew.
He also has a lot of companies and industries in country Y, and he is busy!
"James is running out of time, it's time for us to go to the company. Charles Victor drove over and said, and the little Jew had no choice but to sit down with the expression of going to the execution ground.
"Bye-bye, I wish you all the best in your entry! You remember not to stain your clothes with coffee or lose your documents and financial statements today! By the way, you must remember that no matter who asks you today, don't sign randomly, and don't easily help the female staff who have lost the documents or made mistakes, and beware of people accusing you of indecent ......" Jia Lei stood on the side of the road and waved to the little Jew.
"Jia Lei, what kind of nonsense are you talking about?" the little Jew said speechlessly.
"Huh...... You'll know when the time comes, Grandma Huang and I have prepared a bag for you to put with Mr. Charles, if something really happens, you must remember to go and see it. Jia Lei shouted loudly, and the little Jew wanted to continue listening, but the car had gone far and couldn't hear it.
"Cut! Jia Lei is always a god and a Shinto, he should really change his career to fortune telling. The little Jew said speechlessly.
*****
After Jia Lei waited for the little Jew to go to work, he immediately cleaned up and took the car to the house of Uttars.
"Uncle, how is your health lately? I have prescribed a prescription for you from the old Chinese medicine doctor to replenish your body, drink some when you are fine." Jia Lei said.
Then he handed the tonic medicine that Tuo Wang Lao brought from the holy hand of the national doctor to the housekeeper, although these medicines could not cure cancer, they could make people rest better and replenish their vitality.
"Tatarstan is about to become completely independent, and I am in a very good mood now! When I am in a good mood, my body will naturally improve, and I feel that I can live another 10 years, and I don't need to take tonic medicine at all. Utars said happily.
It may be that people are in good spirits on happy occasions, and Jia Lei also thinks that his face is much better now than last year.
"If you're in good health, then I'll be relieved! I may have to stay in London for a long time this time, if I come to your place every day, don't you bother me?" Jia Lei said with a smile.
"Why am I annoyed with you, you can just live here! I live here alone and lack someone to keep you company, which hotel do you live in now? I'll let the butler pack your bags and stay here." Utarth asked with a smile.
"I came with a friend this time so I didn't stay in the hotel, I stayed at Victor Manor for the time being. Jia Lei replied.
"Why are you living there, the Victors are in a mess, don't follow them and learn badly!, you're going to move me out right now!" said Uttars, frowning and displeased, as the whole of London treated the Victors as a joke.
"I also know that Chairman Victor's house is very messy, so I don't live there! I live in Mr. Charles's house in Victor's manor, he is a relative of my friend, he is a good person, and his family style is very good, you can rest assured. Jia Lei hurriedly explained.
"Do you live in Charles Victor's house? That's fine! Mahler's Villa is a famous fairytale castle in London, and because Madame Mahler is not in good health, many people don't have a chance to see it. You don't see all the mess of the Victor family if you live there, it's pretty much the same. Utarth nodded.
"What? Is the Victor family famous in London?" asked Jia Lei curiously.
You must know that London Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, with the identity and financial resources of the Victor family, is not ranked at all, Jia Lei did not expect that Wu Tatars would know the Victor family so well.
"Have you forgotten what I do? I've been dealing with news all my life, and Ikri Victor is a regular in gossip magazines, and I know him well. Utars said disdainfully.
Because he has more sources, he knows more secrets that are not in the newspapers, and Chairman Victor is not as cheerful and kind as he seems.
"Since you know a lot of secrets, tell me about them! I don't have a place to inquire about them. Jia Lei hurriedly said.
"Why do you listen to these things as a child? Those are all peachy news and intrigues, and you will only dirty your ears when you listen to them. Utars said with a frown.
"You don't know, that good friend of mine is the young master of the Victor family! I came to London this time to help him fight for the family property, and of course the more details I know about the Victor family, the better. Jia Lei explained.
Do you know how many people have died in the Victor family over the past few decades for this huge family property? Your small size is not enough for them to stuff their teeth, so you should move to me quickly! Don't get involved in those things. Utars said with a frown.
My friend's grandmother said that as long as I help them over this family property, they will give me 20 percent, and the shares involved in their inheritance dispute this time are worth 30 billion US dollars? 20 percent is 6 billion US dollars!" Jia Lei hurriedly said, how long will it take him to earn so much money.
"Ahem...... How much do you say?" asked Utars, startled.
"$6 billion!" Jia Lei hurriedly repeated.
"Hey, is this true??'s friend's family can't be lying to you??, how could they possibly give you so much money for a child?" asked Utars, who was not a small amount.
"Of course it's true, I saved the lives of my friend and his father! If I didn't have my son and grandson, even if Grandma Huang really got so much inheritance, it would be useless! That's why my friend's grandmother gave me so much money, and half of this money was specially used by her to thank me for saving my life. How could she lie to me, a benefactor!" Jia Lei said proudly.
"If you are only given a 10% benefit fee, this is reliable! But I am quite curious how the Victor family could suddenly have a woman inherit such a large amount of shares? As far as I know, the old chairman of Victor only has two sons and no daughters in his life. How had I never heard of him having an illegitimate daughter?" asked Utars.
"You're wrong! My friend's grandmother is Ikli Victor, huh...... Although the two of them are not divorced, they have been separated for decades, and they are both married. Jia Lei thought about it and said.
"Since both of them are married again, how can your friend's grandmother fight over the family property?" asked Utars, puzzled.
"Before his death, the old chairman Victor left a will, leaving a 30% stake in the Victor Group to my friend's grandmother and father. The money was left by the old chairman and it had nothing to do with Director Victor, even if they were divorced. Jia Lei said.
"30% of the shares of Victor Group!!This money is more than 30 billion, Chairman Victor should not easily give so much money to your friend's grandmother, right?"
But the attitude of Chairman Victor made me scratch my head, he actually agreed to return the shares to my friend's grandmother, and he took my friend to work in the Victor Group today. I don't know much about Chairman Victor's personality, that's why I came to you to ask?" Jia Lei said.
"Huh...... It seems that Chairman Victor really doesn't plan to give this money! According to his previous character, if he fights a lawsuit with you over property, it means that he will give his ex-wife a little bit in the end! This time when it comes to 30 billion shares, he actually has no opinion at all, so how is it possible? Your friend is probably in danger this time!"
"This can't be possible, right? Tiger poison doesn't eat children, my friend is the grandson of Chairman Victor, he won't even kill his son and grandson for money, right?" Jia Lei asked.
"That's not necessarily, if you knew the experience of Chairman Victor over the years, you wouldn't say that!" said Uttars, and then he told Jia Lei about Chairman Victor's experience over the past few decades......
*****
In 1948, Chairman Ikli Victor drove his own ship with his father and brother to country M to pan for gold, and they were lucky enough to catch the golden age of country M's post-war development.
The year was the peak period of the sustained economic development of country M, and it is also known as the golden age of country M's development in the world, when the presidents of country M were Truman and Eisenhower, Kennedy and Johnson respectively.
The Victor family didn't know where they got all the gold and silver, so they bought a few ships to continue to expand their family's shipping business, and they were engaged in oil transportation and shipping at the same time. They knew a lot of Chinese merchants in Southeast Asia, and they could ship cheap tea cloth to Western countries to sell at high prices, and then ship modern goods from other countries to sell them for profit, and they made tens of millions of dollars in a few years. Then they followed the Sassoon family to invest in real estate and finance, but the old chairman Victor was fond of investing in docks and hotels, and the land price at that time was cheap, and the family really hoarded a lot of land. That's how the Victor Group got its fortune!" said Uttars.
"Huh...... I know where the gold came from! The money was a dowry from my friend's grandmother, who gave the Victor family 10,000 ounces of gold. Otherwise, how could the old chairman of Victor leave so many shares to my friend's grandmother for no reason, it is because the capital of the Victor family was given by my friend's grandmother!" Jia Lei complained.
*****
Some people say that they stole the gold from a small island overseas, and some people say that the gold was brought by the fleeing Jews and swallowed by the Victors, and there were indeed rumors at that time that it was the money that the Victor family had sold their sons in Huaxia. However, no one in country Y has ever seen the legendary rich Mrs. Huaxia of Chairman Victor, and everyone thinks it is a rumor. Later, the news of Huaxia's change of government in China has never come out again, and no one talks about this speculation anymore. Chairman Victor took the opportunity to marry the widowed daughter of Count Onassi as his wife, and then broke into high society. It seems that he tasted the sweetness of marrying a rich wife, and he did it again! Baroness Onassi was a full ten years older than Ikli Wick, and her dowry was very rich. Utars said.
Because Count Onas was a nobleman of country Y, the Victor family used his power to buy land in the colonies of country Y to build docks, hotels, foreign firms and office buildings, and became a new wealthy person in the Western upper class.
In other words, the main property of the Victor family is real estate, so the assets of the Victor family are far more than Jia Lei and their estimates!
