Chapter 225: High Society

Since mining is mainly carried out in the waters of the third island, the headquarters of Yuanying Mining is located on the third island.

After separating from Xu Yuan last time, Zheng Weijie began to prepare for this matter, and after more than half a month of busy work, the framework of this company was finally set up.

After disembarking from the harbor, a special car sent by the Star Trading Company from its station on the island was already waiting on the side of the road.

Sitting in the car, Xu Yuan briefly explained the destination, and the driver started the car very skillfully.

In the security business of Wishing Star Trading Company, it is divided into military and civilian, the employees of the military department are all placed on Tidal Island, and the employees of the civil department serve as the bodyguards of the most important people, and the temporary driver who drove Xu Yuan is the bodyguard of the civil department.

Rolling down the window, Xu Yuan put his arm on the window and admired the back garden that belonged to him.

It's only been a little over a month since he last visited, but in just over a month, the town has changed dramatically.

The streets are lined with newly built apartment buildings, bungalows and commercial streets that are being renovated, giving it a bit of an urban flavor.

Affected by the infrastructure construction and tourism resource development project led by Yuanying International Group, many foreign businessmen have also smelled business opportunities and tried to catch such a high-speed train to share the dividends of the great development of the Qatar country.

While passing by the city center, Xu Yuan was even surprised to find a supermarket that was being renovated.

He vaguely remembered that the supermarket called AUCMA seemed to be the brand of a supermarket chain in Australia, and its main business scope was local retail.

It was clear that the current lack of retail in Qatar had made them smell an opportunity, so they took the bold step of making it their first port of call for overseas expansion.

Because of the frenzied purchase of land by overseas businessmen, they naturally made a lot of money, and they immediately invested the money from the sale of land into public facilities renovation projects, such as expanding roads, building new schools, etc.

The construction of public facilities not only provides people's quality of life, but also provides a large number of jobs.

Not only has the previously high unemployment rate been greatly alleviated, but even many overseas immigrants have been attracted due to labor shortages, and this originally lifeless town seems to have been injected with a shot of strength and rejuvenated its due vitality.

The sea-view cottage that Xu Yuan gave to Zheng Weijie as a staff dormitory was on the edge of the island, with nothing but a bare road and rows of tall verdant palm trees in front of the door.

The car stopped on the side of the road and told the driver to wait for him in the car, Xu Yuan walked to the sea-view cottage and pressed the doorbell on the wooden door.

Footsteps were heard, and the door was quickly opened.

When he saw his old friend Xu Yuan, Zheng Weijie welcomed him into the house very warmly.

"How? Life here. Looking around at the decoration in the living room, Xu Yuan sat on the sofa with a smile.

"Okay, it's hard to imagine that I couldn't even pay my rent when I was in Australia." Zheng Weijie sighed and looked at Xu Yuan seriously, "Although it's a bit hypocritical, I still want to say." Thank you. ”

"Old friend, thank you." Xu Yuan waved his hand.

If it weren't for the recession in the industry, with Zheng Weijie's resume, life in Australia would not necessarily be worse than here, after all, on this island, it is inconvenient to do anything except cheap houses.

"Have you eaten it? Why don't you have lunch here? ”

"That's what I'm here for, don't bother?" Xu Yuan said jokingly.

"Haha, that's the matter of adding a pair of chopsticks, what's the trouble to talk about." Zheng Weijie also smiled.

"Here comes the wine." Zhou Huimin took out two bottles of red wine from the refrigerator, put them in front of the two with a smile, and then unscrewed the caps for the two.

Perhaps because she knew that she had no hope, this time Zhou Huimin didn't bring Xu Yuan that frivolous feeling anymore.

"Thank you." Taking the full wine glass, Xu Yuan smiled kindly at Zhou Huimin.

"You're welcome." Zhou Huimin smiled. Then he poured wine for his boyfriend, "You talk first, I'll go cook." ”

Looking at the back of such a virtuous girlfriend, Zheng Weijie's face showed a happy expression.

"Lost your soul?" Xu Yuan teased.

"Hey, hey." Zheng Weijie wiped his nose shyly. Reaching out and holding the wine glass, "Pull, drink." ”

"I didn't see it, my sister-in-law can actually cook." Xu Yuan was really surprised by this, no matter how you look at it, Zhou Huimin doesn't look like a virtuous person.

"Your sister-in-law is virtuous. I just bought a tuna from the fisherman in the town yesterday, and you'll be in for a treat. Taking a sip of wine, Zheng Weijie said.

For this infatuated friend, Xu Yuan sincerely hopes that he can get together with his beloved.

Although this Zhou Huimin gives him a feeling that he doesn't feel like a good girl, he will never do such a thing as making irresponsible remarks about other people's feelings.

The two chatted and talked about work from life, Zheng Weijie's work ability is really strong, and when it comes to work, his motivation is comparable to that of Nie Shuying's workaholic.

"The education rate in Qatar is very low, and I hire technical talents from Australia, due to the downturn in the mining industry, I know many very capable seniors who are now receiving the subsistence allowance, I have consulted them, and the wages they ask for are not high, but the requirement is to provide housing in accordance with Australia's labor security agreement."

"Neither the holidays nor the house are a problem, I just ask how capable I am." Xu Yuan said.

Zheng Weijie smiled confidently and replied affirmatively, "They are all very capable, and they basically have rich work experience." ”

"How many people are there?"

"Considering that the company is not in the mining business yet, I have only hired 10 people to be in the management."

"I'm afraid it's not enough, I have an offshore mining project on hand right away." Xu Yuan shook his head.

Zheng Weijie looked at Xu Yuan in surprise and exclaimed, "So fast? ”

"The president and I have some personal friendships." Xu Yuan said vaguely.

Hearing this, Zheng Weijie smiled hesitantly, "No wonder the mining license came down so quickly, in many countries it may not be possible to take down the license for half a year, then you tell me about the minerals, I should prepare first, if there is a project to start immediately, these 10 people will definitely not be enough." ”

"Tin Ink Ore."

"Tin ink ore? Have you identified a mine? Zheng Weijie frowned slightly.

Xu Yuan nodded, and took out a geological map obtained from deep-sea exploration from his pocket.

Looking at the red circle on the map, Zheng Weijie's brows furrowed deeper and deeper.

"Did you know that the average depth of this deposit is 7,000 meters?" Zheng Weijie glanced at Xu Yuan strangely and asked.

"What's wrong? Is there a problem? Xu Yuan was puzzled.

"It can't be mined with the current technology." Zheng Weijie said very firmly, "Or have you been fooled?" ”

7,000 meters of deep-sea mining, which is beyond the reach of any country now, Zheng Weijie is wondering if the president is lying.

However, Xu Yuan did not show disappointment or even anger as he expected, but only showed a strange expression, Lin Xiujie dared to play me? Are you kidding!

Xu Yuan pondered for a moment and said, "I can solve the matter of seabed mining. ”

"That's 7,000 meters." Lin Xiujie couldn't help but remind.

"7,000 meters only." Xu Yuan smiled confidently and said in an unquestioning tone.

Lin Xiujie was stunned, although he wanted to use his rich experience in the industry to tell Jiang Chen that this was not realistic. But the confidence on Xu Yuan's face made him a little unpredictable.

"I'll take care of the seabed mining part, and your current task is to build an offshore platform directly above the target deposit for transshipment resources, and then buy a transport ship to build a tin-ink refinery on the island, as well as a steel mill and an aluminium mine to process the iron ore shipped from Australia." Xu Yuan said.

"It's going to cost a lot of money." Lin Xiujie couldn't help but remind.

"What I have is money."

Lin Xiujie stopped talking, his friend's wealth was beyond his imagination.

At the dinner table, the two were also chatting happily, wine is easy to open the chatterbox, the two used to chat more compatible, and at this time, they chatted more familiarly.

"By the way, when are you going to get married?" Holding the wine glass, Xu Yuan asked casually.

"Get married, look at Huihui's opinion, I'm willing to do it at any time." Lin Xiujie's face was also a little drunk, he held Zhou Huimin's little hand and confessed affectionately.

Hearing this, Zhou Huimin's cheeks were also slightly red: "Wait a little longer, it's not very urgent anyway." ”

"Haha, it's true, not in a hurry." Lin Xiujie waved his hand.

Although he graduated from graduate school, Zhou Huimin has just graduated from his undergraduate degree and is 22 years old.

"Don't invite me when you get married, I'll wait to drink your wedding wine." Xu Yuan laughed.

"How so." Lin Xiujie waved his hand, his nose sprayed with wine, "When the time comes, set up ten tables on the beach to get married, let's have a good time." ”

After a few bottles of red wine in a row, Xu Yuan was also a little drunk, and then looked at Lin Xiujie's guy, the amount of alcohol was not good and he was fat, and he snorted until the end.

I don't know if it was intentional or undoubted, Zhou Huimin, who was sitting next to her drunken boyfriend, changed her sitting posture and crossed her legs.

This sitting position is nothing, but if there is a person sitting opposite, it is a little inappropriate.

And that skillful action, to say that she was an unintentional move, Xu Yuan really didn't believe it.

Sighing secretly, Xu Yuan only felt a little sorry for his old friend, but he wouldn't say anything.

Some things have nothing to do with right or wrong, but once you say it, you are not human inside or out.

"Brother Yuan actually drinks so well, I'll give you a glass instead of Xiujie." Zhou Huimin raised her glass with a smile and toasted Xu Yuan.

Xu Yuan smiled, raised his wine glass and touched her.

"It's not early, Xiu Jie is drunk like this, I'd better go first."

"Don't you sit a little longer?" Seeing Xu Yuan get up, Zhou Huimin said.

I saw that Lin Xiujie was already lying on the sofa and falling asleep at the moment, looking at Zhou Huimin's smile, Xu Yuan still didn't understand her thoughts.

"No need, I still have something to do, so I won't bother you." Xu Yuan declined with a smile.

Seeing that Xu Yuan had already said this, Zhou Huimin was naturally embarrassed to keep it.

Enthusiastically sent Xu Yuan to the door, and Zhou Huimin watched him walk to the side of the road.

When she watched the bodyguard get out of the car and respectfully pull the car door for him, a trace of envy clearly flashed on her face, and what she envied was not the car, but the respect on the bodyguard's face.

That's what it's like to be in high society.

She liked the feeling of high society, and the kind of respectful and adoring gaze that made her very envious.

After meeting Xu Yuan, Zhou Huimin fantasized more than once that if she could stand by his side and attend a high-end business party with him.

And then listening to others call themselves Mrs. Xu, this feeling is absolutely amazing!

After closing the door and glancing back at her boyfriend lying on the sofa, Zhou Huimin suddenly sighed.
