Chapter 58: Flying to Spain
On Thursday, when grandparents and second uncle Ivers, who were far away in Los Angeles, returned to Switzerland, it meant that all the members of the immediate family gathered together. In Lucerne's aunt's family, third uncle Young's family in Zurich, and Jonas's family were all gathered on the farm. In addition, cousin Hank's family and godfather Kane's family.
Of course, this kind of occasion is indispensable. Colston, a guy who likes to join in the fun. He came to Gelsau from Munich two days in advance. He also brought a college classmate to Jonas, who was specially brought to Jonas for enjoyment. Unfortunately, Jonas had an Ellieni around him. So before his father arrived, he had already sent him back to Munich.
Alini did not quit her job, but was transferred to the same department as Jonas. Of course, she was still in her work relationship and didn't have to go to work anymore. Jonas was not doing anything now, and after she came, she mainly helped him contact the guests from the United Arab Emirates.
These guests were invited by Mohammed, who loved to be proud of his face, but Jonas had to give him this face, and everyone invited him separately. There was only one person who was invited by Jonas, namely Faram, the prince of Oman, who he did not know. Although he was a prince without the right to inherit the throne, he was also a prince. Faram happily ended the invitation and would come with the nouveau riche in the UAE.
The reason why they are nouveau riche is that they only have a dozen people, but they have to fly three planes to Spain, which makes Jonas really not know how to evaluate them. Nouveau riche is the best interpretation.
However, the Yonas family has also become a famous nouveau riche in Switzerland because he also owns a private plane. This is not a small helicopter worth hundreds of thousands, but a 45 million Gulfstream 550. The plane was sent to Buoks Airport by Gulfstream on Tuesday, and the Gulfstream company also held a handover ceremony. Although the orderer was not him, the determined owner is him, a 23-year-old young man. This caused a lot of controversy in Switzerland. The reporters found out about the Jonas family's wealth in Chile. The newspapers have been reporting this news these days.
Janik started from scratch and relied on his relationship to gain the support of big investors. He explored a large copper mine with a reserve of 2 billion tons in Chile, and suddenly owned billions of assets. This is completely like a myth and is the most sought after by ordinary people.
All the agreements were dug out by reporters. According to the initial copper mine evaluation, Yannik owned 40% of the shares, and then sold only half of the shares, obtained 1.5 billion US dollars in cash and 15% of the shares of the copper mine. According to the forecast, the assets of the Yonas family suddenly reached more than 3 billion US dollars, and immediately entered the top ten Swiss rich people. Therefore, the name of nouveau riche fell on their family.
However, the people in the town are simple and do not have much jealousy and hatred. When they meet them, they still say a normal blessing. If this were in the Heavenly Kingdom, they would have been circled behind others.
The one who was hit the most was Colston. The two of them grew up together. Jonas was half a year older than him and took good care of him since childhood. He was the youngest child. He claimed to be smart and always thought he could do everything. The families of the two families were similar, but now they felt that they were pulled a lot away all of a sudden. Jonas owned a Ferrari, and he could still envy him and wanted to come and play, but a plane was a big thing that he couldn't play with. With his financial conditions, he couldn't afford to fly.
Seeing everyone treating Jonas as an adult, but still treating himself as a child, Colston was even more hit. He couldn't figure out why Uncle Yanick didn't have a private secretary yet, why Jonas had it, and why the famous Markridge attached so much importance to Jonas and even recognized him as a godson. These things have been shocking Colston's heart. He has been thinking about whether he should change his image, learn Jonas, and focus more on future planning.
At night, the snow stopped, but the clouds did not dissipate, but instead drizzled. In winter, rain felt more cold than snow. However, in the house, the heating supply was sufficient and it did not feel cold at all. A piece of thermal underwear was enough to keep the cold.
In the large living room on the first floor, women and children were chatting there. Jonas' American brother played with a few children and laughed fiercely from time to time. Hannah looked at the lively scene of the family, and was so happy that she couldn't stop talking.
In the small living room, the topic of chatting between men is focused on Yonas' proposal to build a new house. Since the bodyguards moved in, Yonas had this idea. Although this 100-year-old castle is big enough, many rooms are not suitable for people, and there is not even a window. Now four bodyguards have settled in, including one following Yonas and two left-behind farms. In the future, Yanik and Sesia will definitely be equipped with bodyguards, and the family is not enough to live in. Moreover, it is not convenient for the bodyguards to live with the owner.
When marrying Latini, Mohamed had already said that he would arrange a few female workers to help the maids, cooks, handymen, and nannies. These people also had to arrange accommodation, so it seemed inevitable to build a new house. Yankr also voted for the proposal after hearing Yonas' analysis. Yank had no objection and agreed to apply to the government when he came back from Spain.
Money is no longer a problem now, but approval is a problem. Now if you want to build a house at the foot of Mount Rigi, you not only need approval from the state and town governments, but also from the Rigi Management Office. However, with the construction of hot springs, the government departments will probably not be too demanding.
The next morning, Richie, who lived on the shore of Sizhou Lake in the evening, arranged a bodyguard to come and invited some people to set off on his plane.
.After a while, the Latini family will set off with Jonas and the others on the same plane. There are too many people and there is not enough plane to take a seat.
In addition to the Muhammad family, he also invited two fellow villagers in Europe to join him. Jonas knew that Arabs like to be so flirted with. Something worth talking about is something that I wish I could promote the world and be very proud. Muhammad wanted everyone to know that he could be related to Markridge, and anyone wanted to bring him.
However, one of them caught the attention of Yonas. The oil merchant named Said owns the largest private oil well in Abu Dhabi, with the production of three oil wells reaching 20,000 barrels per day. And his oil wells are not like the oil wells in Abu Dhabi, most of which are in the sea, but in their north of tribes near Qatar. The cost of mining on land is even lower. At the price of forty dollars per barrel, these three oil wells bring him nearly 300 million US dollars in revenue every year, which is not a small amount.
Even if the investment and taxes are removed, at least half of it is net income. When the oil price rises in the future, most of it is net income, which is exactly like picking up money. Since he does not have oil refining technology, he can only sell crude oil to refining companies controlled by the Abu Dhabi consortium, because according to the UAE regulations, he does not have the right to export crude oil.
The price of selling crude oil to the Abu Dhabi consortium and directly to foreign companies is completely different. Said thought of going to Europe to contact small refining equipment and preparing to set up a refinery by himself. However, after calculating the cost and output of refining equipment, he had a conflict because it took him 20 years to recover the cost. Whether these equipment can be used for 20 years is a problem. The investment is obviously lower than the output.
Seeing that Yonas and Said were having fun chatting, Mohamed was secretly anxious and waited on the plane, squeezed beside Yonas and said, "Don't think about helping him contact any old equipment, and don't affect the layout of the Abu Dhabi company."
Yonas smiled and said, "Would I be so stupid? You UAE, the backyard of Abu Dhabi, can't be inserted into anyone. I may not know how powerful it is."
The first time I boarded my own plane, Jonas couldn't help but look at the layout of the inner warehouse. Ritchie is a man who cares about demeanor and class, and he likes to pursue trends. Therefore, the inner warehouse design of the aircraft is not only not nostalgic, but also looks very trendy.
The cabin’s color is mainly white, with only the official desk and the coffee table being black. Although there are no beds arranged in the cabin, there are two sofas, and it is a big bed. The cabin is specially separated into two sections, which can have a certain degree of privacy. Looking at Alini, who is helping the flight attendant Stephanie arrange everyone to sit, Yonas thought to himself that there will be a lot of opportunities to enjoy the fun of high altitudes in the future.
Latini snuggled over gently, holding his arm, and asked happily: "Jonas, will this plane be yours in the future?"
Jonas shaved her nose and smiled, "You should say, this is ours." Latini immediately smiled happily, full of satisfaction.
Her two brothers came over and Abdullah laughed and said, "Jonas, can we borrow your plane from now on when we return to the UAE?"
"Of course, what's wrong with this? We will be a family in the future." As soon as this said, even Mohammed's eyes lit up. Abdullah was so happy.
Ricci's plane was arranged to take off first, and the plane had to wait for a while. Jonas took Latini to continue to inspect. The cabin was equipped with a wifi system and there were two computers. At this time, the computer was not used. The display screen showed the global positioning of GPS, which made it easier for the cabin to know their location at any time.
When he arrived at the cockpit, Colston listened to the two pilots' seats explaining the uses of electronic equipment in various places. It was also the first time that Jonas approached the cockpit of the aircraft. Four display screens were embedded side by side in front of him, and the electronic equipment was dazzling.
When the two pilots saw the boss coming, they greeted him quickly. Jonas smiled and said, "I just take a look at it casually, without any politeness. My life will be placed in your palms in the future. Hewisen, when will it take off?"
Both pilots were formerly old subordinates of Ricky, loyal and had no worries about them. Hewisson was the main pilot, and Ravavsky was the deputy pilot. They had both used to drive fighter jets and had rich flying experience. They were familiar with flying such small aircraft.
Hewisen looked at the time and said, "Sir, you can take off in five minutes."
Yonas nodded and said, "Okay, let's go back to the seat." When he walked to the door of the cabin, he turned around and said, "Haiwisen, just call me Yonas in the future. I'm not old enough to need respect."
Haywisen laughed and said, "Yes, Jonas."
