Chapter 1740 The Evil Capitalist
"Evil capitalist." Portia saw the villa that was already taking shape by the Mirror Lake.
After Felwood Cisco learned about Portia's purpose, he immediately invited her into the temporary office area.
Whatever documents Portia needed, Felwood Cisco would get them as soon as she asked.
Even if some documents are not at the construction site, Felwood Cisco will have them delivered as soon as possible.
Portia has worked as a personal assistant in the past, and she has also conducted construction site inspections.
At that time, the engineering contractor had various shady connections.
Her request was refuted in every possible way, causing her review to be very unsatisfactory.
Before coming to Mirror Lake this time, she was mentally prepared.
As a result, Felwood Cisco was more cooperative than she expected.
Felwood Cisco did not make things difficult or evasive.
How did she know that Felwood Cisco didn't dare to make any small moves in Chen Zhao's project.
Even though he knew that some small actions were unspoken rules.
But Felwood and Cisco didn't dare to do it.
For example, replace the steel with a next-level one.
This is almost impossible to detect during project quality inspection.
Even sub-grade steel meets engineering needs and quality requirements.
The only loophole is that the material bill needs to be falsified to avoid customer inspection.
Of course, there are still traces to follow, such as transfer records and the like.
It's not like Felwood Cisco has never done this kind of thing in the past.
But that was before meeting Chen Zhao.
Later, Chen Zhao gave him one project after another.
And it gets bigger every time. Felwood and Cisco have identified Chen Zhao.
As long as you hold Chen Zhao's thigh tightly, your engineering company can definitely develop and grow.
For example, the Mingyue Villa project has become a well-known attraction in Los Angeles.
It is also a star project of Felwood Cisco.
Therefore, many wealthy people hire Felwood Cisco's company to design and build their own villas.
In Los Angeles, there has never been a shortage of wealthy people.
Of course, there are not many projects that he can personally supervise.
Most of the time, he still stays in his office and blows on the air conditioner.
His engineering contracting company has developed quite well in the past two years.
Especially the completion of Mingyue Villa gave his company a certain reputation in the industry.
His current company cannot be said to be comparable to the top engineering companies.
At least supporting yourself will definitely not be a problem.
Only projects commissioned by Chen Zhao would require him to stay at the construction site for at least four hours a day.
Of course, the workers in Felwood Cisco's company like to take on Chen Zhao's projects the most.
After all, Chen Zhao was the most generous customer they had ever seen.
During the holidays, they were almost never left out.
Because the account books are clear and clean, there are almost no errors.
So Portia liquidated quickly.
"Mr. Felwood, thank you for your cooperation."
"No, this is what I should do."
"Can I walk around?" Portia asked.
"Of course, but if you want to enter the construction site, you need to put on a safety helmet first."
Portia saw that there was a pasture one kilometer away next to Mirror Lake, where hundreds of cows were eating green grass.
Because of the wind direction, the smell of the pasture will not drift here at all.
Portia couldn't help but wonder, is Chen Zhao engaged in animal husbandry?
No, although there are several animal husbandry bosses in California, there should be no Chen Zhao among them.
And a few hundred cows is not a large-scale operation.
Not even in the top 1,000.
Just then, a woman dressed as a cowboy came over on horseback.
This woman is Murphy's girlfriend Rebecca.
Ever since her affair ended.
She was controlled by Chen Zhao in Los Angeles.
She was also warned by Chen Zhao.
If she dared to leave Los Angeles silently.
Then Chen Zhao will fill the sea with her.
But the current state is pretty good.
At least she no longer has to run away like she used to.
Murphy was also nice to her.
And she helps look after the cattle.
I can’t say it’s hard work, nor do I need to work many hours.
The salary Chen Zhao paid her was also good.
So the days are not bad.
"Hello, who are you?"
"Hello, I'm Portia, Mr. Chen's personal assistant."
"Oh, I'm Rebecca. I also work for him. I'm responsible for taking care of these cows." Rebecca said, "Are you one of us?"
"What?" Portia looked at Rebecca in confusion.
"No, it's nothing." From Portia's reaction, Rebecca could tell that Portia was an ordinary person and had no idea about Chen Zhao and her identity.
"What do you mean when you say we are the same kind of people?"
"Nothing." Rebecca smiled and shook her head.
Portia felt confused for a while.
“Do these cattle and this pasture belong to the boss?”
"Yes."
"Does the boss only have this pasture?" Portia asked tentatively.
“These cattle are for the boss’s own consumption, not for sale,” Rebecca said.
"What? Eat it by yourself?" There was a black line on Portia's forehead.
Is this too much?
Raise so many cows and eat them yourself?
Their whole family would probably not be able to eat more than a few cows in their lifetime.
“I send ten slaughtered cattle over every week,” Rebecca said.
Portia suddenly remembered that Chen Zhao did have a lot of beef at home.
Moreover, he has not only their family, but also many pets, including Haili.
I remember that last time she helped Fali feed the sharks with beef.
This makes Portia feel the difference between rich and poor again.
Rich people are like this. They raise so many cows and most of them are used to feed pets.
And she couldn't even afford a cow.
"Rebecca, can you see so many cows by yourself?"
"Of course." Rebecca said disapprovingly: "By the way, my boyfriend also works for Mr. Chen. I will introduce Murphy to you another day."
"Come on, I'll take you around here."
"Is this all the boss's land?"
"Yes, with Mirror Lake as the center and a radius of sixteen square kilometers, it is all the boss's private land."
Portia lamented that the area of the pasture was at least five square kilometers. It was still a waste of resources to only raise a few hundred cows in such a large area.
With such a large area and such good quality of forage, it is more than enough to raise several thousand cattle.
"Hey, there's a factory over there."
"That's the brewery and the boss's property," Rebecca said.
Portia remembered that Gaia once told her that Chen Zhao seemed to be a wine seller.
It turns out this is the brewery she was talking about.
But looking at the brewery, it's obviously not very big.
It may not be Chen Zhao's main industry.
