Chapter 494: Hell's Kitchen Headquarters

Xiao Ping had long known that although Douglas was a rancher, his other identity was that of a director of a large company. Douglas bought the ranch purely for pleasure. Because he likes horses, he bought a ranch to raise horses.

So it's only natural for a wealthy man like Douglas to have a private jet. While other travelers are waiting for their flights, they can travel comfortably between cities on their own private jet.

Since there is a free plane to take and he can get to New York a few hours earlier, Xiao Ping will certainly not refuse. He thanked Douglas and then went to the tarmac with his simple luggage.

Although Xiao Ping was not surprised that Douglas had a private jet, he was still a little surprised when he followed Douglas and his son to the tarmac and saw the private jet.

This is a Gulfstream G550 aircraft. It's not the latest model in the Gulfstream range, but it's also a high-performance and ultra-luxurious model that will catch the eye even on the tarmac where private jets are plethous.

When Xiao Ping and his party came to the plane, a flight attendant stood by the gangway to greet the passengers. The two pilots were in the cockpit preparing for takeoff, and everything seemed so well organized.

After Xiao Ping and the others sat down in the luxurious cabin, the plane slowly taxied onto the runway, and then increased its thrust to taxi and take off, and soon disappeared into the blue sky.

When the seatbelt light went out, the flight attendant served drinks to the trio. Xiao Ping drank the finest champagne, looked at the white clouds floating under the wings, and enjoyed the convenience brought by private jets, and couldn't help but have the idea of buying a private jet.

At present, Xiao Ping's career is getting bigger and bigger. I often have to travel back and forth to major cities, and I have to go abroad from time to time. Remembering those painful experiences at airports everywhere. He couldn't help but secretly said in his heart: "With a private jet, it will be much more convenient to fly around in the future." Set a time and go. You don't have to stay in the airport anymore. ”

Of course, Xiao Ping only has a preliminary idea, and it is not so easy to realize. A good private jet is worth tens of millions of dollars, and you have to hire pilots, flight attendants, etc., which are all money. What's more, the aircraft also has the cost of use, fuel, usual maintenance, and the cost of using the airport, etc., which add up to a lot of expenses. Even with Xiao Ping's current strength, it still needs to be considered in the long run if he wants to raise an aircraft.

Thinking about these questions, Xiao Ping couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "It's all money." Looks like you'll have to work hard to make money!"

While Xiao Ping was thinking about buying a private jet, Douglas was concerned about something else. Seeing Xiao Ping staring blankly out of the window, he coughed lightly and said, "Xiao, what we said last time, is there any news about the purchase of the Black Devil's offspring?"

Douglas's words brought Xiao Ping back to reality, and he couldn't help but be secretly happy: "Hey, just said that I want to make money, and the opportunity to make money has come!"

In fact, the "wives" of the Black Devil have already given birth to several foals. In the privileged environment of the Demon Refining Pot, the foals grow fast and well. Although these foals were born around the Spring Festival. But they've all been weaned. The two largest have grown taller than their mothers and are very close to the size of adult males.

According to the horse's habits, it's time for these ponies to leave the pack. Now Douglas asked, but it was exactly what Xiao Ping wanted.

"You're kind of asking. Mr. Douglas. Xiao Ping picked up the wine glass and took a sip, and said with a smile: "The black devil and its two offspring will be transported to the ranch in the near future, how about time...... I guess it was after I came back from New York. If you're interested. I'll let you know when the time comes. ”

Hearing that the offspring of two black devils would be transported to the ranch, Douglas immediately came to his senses. He quickly put down his glass and asked with interest, "How are the two ponies, how old are they? If they are too young, they will not be good or bad." ”

Xiao Ping is very confident in the foal born and raised in the demon refining pot. Confidently leaning back in his chair, he said, "No matter how much I say, it is not as convincing as the facts." When the pony arrives, won't you see for yourself what the way is?I'll just emphasize one thing, I won't let you down!"

Although Xiao Ping didn't say anything, his attitude made Douglas, who loves horses, itch and scratch, and asked Xiao Ping about the pony along the way. However, Xiao Ping was determined to keep the mystery to the end, and only told Douglas that the two were little stallions, and the rest of the news was not revealed at all, which made the American rich man so anxious that he scratched his ears and cheeks, but there was nothing he could do.

The plane landed in New York without incident. Xiao Ping thanked Douglas and planned to go to Hell's Kitchen magazine to meet Chef Jessica and Ramsey. Douglas repeatedly reminded Xiao Ping that he must inform him when the pony arrived, and then said goodbye to Xiao Ping.

Xiao Ping first found a five-star hotel in the city to stay, and then called a taxi and went straight to Jessica's place of work, the headquarters of Hell's Kitchen magazine.

Hell's Kitchen Magazine is well-known in the world's food circles, and its headquarters is located in a high-rise building next to Times Square, which is very close to the headquarters of the famous "Time" magazine.

New York's Times Square is known as the "crossroads of the world", and there are famous places like Broadway nearby, which is also a must-see attraction for many tourists visiting New York.

However, Xiao Ping didn't have the heart to appreciate the style of Times Square, thinking that he would meet Jessica earlier, he got out of the taxi and hurried to the headquarters of Hell's Kitchen magazine, and he didn't forget to bring a bouquet of flowers, intending to surprise the American chick.

As a world-class magazine, Hell's Kitchen headquarters is very large, at least seven or eight times the size of Xiao Ping's corporate headquarters in Sioux City, and occupies two floors of the building.

At the entrance of the magazine's headquarters, there is a huge Hell's Kitchen magazine logo, and there is a circle of flames burning around it, which makes it feel like a preemptive sound at a glance.

The reception at the front desk is two beautiful blondes, and from Xiao Ping's point of view, they are more than enough to be graphic models, but there is still a certain gap compared with Jessica.

Xiao Ping didn't have an appointment when he came here, so he could only tell the front desk reception and come to the magazine reporter Jessica Taylor himself.

When the two receptionists saw the flowers Xiao Ping was holding, they also showed a clear expression on their pretty faces, and immediately called him to ask. Unfortunately, Jessica isn't in the office. I heard from a colleague of the American chick that she had an interview and left the company in the morning.

"It's a pity, Mr. Shaw. The front desk of a large company is a profession, and the girl who helped Xiao Ping on the phone did not forget to comfort him: "You can come back in the afternoon, maybe Miss Taylor will be back then." ”

Of course, Xiao Ping would not wait until the afternoon stupidly, since Jessica was not in him, he could find someone else, so he immediately smiled and said: "It's okay, may I ask Chef Ramsey is there? I can also find him, you can help me call and ask Ramsey if he is free." ”

Hearing Xiao Ping mention the name of the boss, the front desk that was still smiling at him just now immediately became nervous, and the smile turned into a forced smile, and he stammered a little: "I'm sorry...... Sir, an appointment is required to see Mr. Ramsey, and ...... No one was allowed to disturb him while he was working and we were strictly forbidden to call him!"

Looking at the nervous appearance of the front desk lady, Xiao Ping couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Ramsey's temper is really worthy of his name, and the mere mention of his name can scare his company's employees like this, and the name of "angry chef" is really not covered.

Since the front desk didn't dare to disturb Ramsey, Xiao Ping had to call him personally. However, before Xiao Ping could take out the phone, he heard Ramsey's trademark growl from the company.

"No, the exchange activities of the exhibitors must end on time the day after tomorrow! They want to postpone it if they think the results are good!" Ramsey should be on the phone, and he can be heard angry: "The judging process will start on time in two days, and if anyone is not convinced, tell him to bring the exhibits and get out of the house immediately! This is my expo, I have the final say!"

Ramsey said as he came out of the office, not knowing where he wanted to go. Seeing that the person he was looking for was right in front of him, Xiao Ping naturally didn't call again, but greeted him and said loudly: "Yo, chef, who made you angry again?"

Seeing that Xiao Ping actually spoke with angry Ramsey in such a tone, the two front desk ladies were secretly worried. They know the boss's temper very well, and Xiao Ping provoked him at this time, which was simply self-defeating. Now the two of them just hope that this matter will not affect themselves, and the boss will not pour out his anger on himself.

Ramsey's response, however, was much more than the two front desks had expected. He just glanced at Xiao Ping with some surprise, not only did he not continue to lose his temper rarely, but he also squeezed out a smile and said, "You actually came in person, it seems that you attach great importance to this expo." ”

Xiao Ping said with a smile: "This is an expo hosted by Hell's Kitchen, I believe in your vision, those who are qualified to go to the expo are all good things, of course you have to come here in person to open your eyes!"

Xiao Ping's words made Ramsey very useful, and he smiled a little proudly: "Of course, not everyone is qualified to participate in my expo. By the way, I'm going to the exhibition site now, do you want to go along?"

Anyway, Jessica went to the interview and didn't say when she would be back. Xiao Ping also didn't want to call her, so as not to affect the American chick work. Jessica takes this job very seriously, and Xiao Ping doesn't want to hold her back.

So Xiao Ping only hesitated for a moment, and immediately nodded and said, "Okay, let's go together!"

Ramsey is also a cheerful person, seeing that Xiao Ping didn't say much when he agreed, he turned around and walked outside the company. However, before the two of them took a few steps, Ramsey suddenly turned around, snatched the flowers from Xiao Ping's hand and threw them directly into the trash. (To be continued.) )
