[Infrastructure] Rose kissed Barcelona

"Miss Fernandez, do you confirm that you have not been under any coercion and voluntarily signed the contract to take over Montjuic, a hill with an altitude of 184.8 meters and a surface area of ​​15 square kilometers?" the notary asked in a businesslike manner.

"I confirm." Joey said calmly.

In fact, she was impatient.Signing a contract is so ink-stained, repeatedly confirming whether she has really made up her mind, just because she is a woman.

Because of the twists and turns when applying for a patent before, Joey later specifically consulted the relevant laws of the General Court of Catalonia.

The note reads: "Given that women are relatively fragile mentally and physically, when signing relevant documents with significant legal effect, married women must have their husbands to sign, and unmarried women must have their guardians to sign - that is, their father, brother or Other male relatives. If there are no relatives involved, at least one male guarantor signature is required."

Fortunately, she has a loyal butler Pascal, and this era does not have a particularly accurate and efficient way to confirm a person's identity.So, Mr. Pascal acted as her guarantor most of the time.

"Okay. Please sign here." The notary put the contract in triplicate in front of Joey.

After Joey finished signing, the notary asked, "Your guardian? Please sign here."

"My brother." Joey gestured to Alfonso who was obediently standing behind him.

Fifteen-year-old Alfonso sat down to sign his sister's guardian—almost writing his real name, writing the l instead of an f.He quickly paused the nib of the pen to pretend that the ink was leaking from the pen, to make sure that he still wrote "Alonso".

After the donor, recipient and notary have all signed the contract, the contract becomes official.

"Miss Fernandez, thank you so much!" Moreno, whose hair was half white, burst into tears, took off his hat and bowed deeply to Joey: "From now on, you will have the eternal loyalty of the Moreno family .”

"You don't have to be so polite." Joey replied with a smile.She's not doing charity either, she's just interested in the commercial value of this piece of land.

However, even if the Moreno family is seriously injured at this time and wants to retreat to the countryside in despair, having the support of this long-established family is something worth celebrating.

After sending off the thankful Moreno, Alfonso frowned and said, "Sister, you are right, this kind of regulation is really unscientific."

"Women may be inferior to men in physical strength, but many people, such as you, are no less than men in mind. I also experienced this when I was studying in the UK and Austria. The meaning of law should be to establish order to facilitate people's lives , instead of putting up barriers for people. If I do become king, I will push Parliament to change the legislation."

Joey smiled and touched Alfonso's head.The intensive implantation education I had during this time was really useful.

"Alfonso, you have grown up. You will make a good king, I believe in you."

The little prince obediently let her touch his head, pleading with dark eyes: "So, you really don't plan to go to Madrid with me? After all, Catalonia is an autonomous region, and the king can't control their legislation. And Carlos is still entrenched in the The north side is too close to you. When I return to Madrid to stabilize the situation, I don’t know how long it will take, and it will take even longer to send troops there—I don’t trust you here alone.”

"No." Joy smiled, thinking of her own calculations.How can you grab the master's wool after you leave?And her big investment waiting to pay off.

"I like Barcelona. Madrid is too hot and there is no sea. Besides, I'm not alone here. I have friends all over the world."

In Madrid, she was the notorious playboy princess.In Barcelona, ​​she is the patron of the city government, Miss Fernandez favored by Lady Luck.

She patted her brother on the shoulder: "And you also said that Carlos is still in the north. If I go to Madrid with you, it will be like missing an eye here. The situation in Madrid is not as easy as you think, undercurrents Move, there are some things you need to worry about - I will help you guard here, at least it can save you from worrying about the future."

Alfonso bowed his head a little moved and a little guilty.

His sister always did.Others say that she is arrogant and unreasonable, but she is actually proud, firm and gentle.She would kick him out of bed angrily because he took the little green snake to her bed, but she would still remember to press a goodnight kiss on his forehead before going to bed.

Due to some secret psychology, he has never been able to face those people who pointed at his life behind his back.But as long as Princess Rose hears about it, those people will be transferred from the Royal Palace of Madrid for various reasons such as "offending the royal family" the next day.

Also like growing up, he can never change her mind.

Alfonso took his sister's hand and kissed the back of her hand: "Sister, don't worry, I will work hard."

"Miss Fernandez, Mr. Speaker can see you now." The secretary of the city council knocked on the door.

A crescent-shaped ebony desk sits next to a spotless leather sofa in the atmospheric speaker's office.Speaker Manolo, who was wearing the most formal gown, was covered in taut clothes, looking like a balloon that was about to blow up.

"So, as I said yesterday," Joey said with a smile, "I donate this land to the Barcelona City Council free of charge, on the condition that the transaction tax is exempted. How is the Council considering it?"

Manolo's small eyes were squeezed between the fat, and he looked at her questioningly for a long time, "Miss Fernandez, have you really thought it through? I need to reiterate that even if the transaction tax is exempted, you still need to make up for it. The land tax and other taxes that have been in arrears for a long time on this piece of land total about 1000 million.”

"The city council doesn't count on the money - not even the regional government of Catalonia. After all, there is still a big part that goes to Madrid."

Although the city government took advantage of this matter no matter what, the respectable Mr. Speaker has to confirm that this lady is really insane.

In case she regrets later, although the legal procedures are complete, it will always be a troublesome matter.And when the news spreads, the majestic city of Barcelona actually took advantage of a helpless and weak woman, and it will definitely become the laughing stock of other cities.

"I've thought it through," Joey said firmly.

"Also, you may think that cooperating with our government to hold an exhibition will be a great source of profit. But I have to remind you that, although it is embarrassing, we just failed to host the World Expo in Barcelona - which means that the next The success rate will not be high."

"What's more, the reputation of Montjuic Mountain is really not very good. If the public thinks this is an ominous forbidden place and is unwilling to come here to do business, then the exhibition hall may not choose a location here."

"—And this, I'm afraid it's beyond the control of our city council."

"That's all your reminders, isn't it?"

"Yes." Manolo curled his lips, and the lady didn't seem to take his advice seriously.It's ridiculous!There is nothing wrong with the City Council in accepting the gift.He just didn't want to bully ignorant young girls.

"Okay, I understand everything." Joey smiled, there seemed to be magic in his purple eyes, and even his voice seemed to be charmed by a demon.

"—Then, sign a contract with me."

"Already signed?!" Joseph screamed, attracting many eyes in the ballroom.

"Joy, what on earth are you thinking? Is money so hot?"

The blond boy yelled bitterly, "You are so rich, lend me some! Just during this time, my dad thought I spent too much and deducted my living expenses. It's not much, 1000 million is fine! It's you Money spent on Montjuic."

"I'm sorry," Joey shook the sherry in his hand leisurely, "I just ran out of money after paying this huge sum of money. ——If you don't believe me, ask my architect, I pay his design fee on credit of."

She poked the architect beside her with her fan, who was still meditating on the blueprints.

Antonio raised his head and said calmly: "Yes. I can testify."

More than credit.She hadn't even planned to pay.

"It's really nothing." Joey said with a smile. "I had a dream a few days ago. I dreamed that an angel landed beside me and told me to buy this mountain and give it to Barcelona. Good people will be rewarded."

She blinked slyly: "It happened to be the last sum of money left, so I bought it."

Joseph's astonished mouth could almost stuff an egg.

He had thought that both the man and the woman were rare geniuses.Now it seems that there is something wrong with the brain.

Miss Fernandez bought Montjuïc and gave the city government a penny!

This anecdote of the Arabian Nights soon spread to everyone at the ball in Earl's Court.

my God!Miss Fernandez, who is the best at making money, commits a stupidity, which is also extremely earth-shattering.

Angels reporting in dreams?

Hmm... Everyone made a sign of the cross in their hearts.Darwin's "Origin of Species" was published 14 years ago.Mr Monkey salutes you.

May God bless his stupidest believers.

etc!As we all know, Montjuic is haunted and is the domain of Satan.

...I can only say that some things are better believed than not believed.

You see, Mr. Moreno inherited Montjuic, and then the fleet sank in the ocean.

The smart and lucky Miss Fernandez bought Montjuic, and her IQ dropped directly to negative.

So maybe God and the Devil really exist?

The news of embellishment and vinegar took on wings, and soon even the earl himself was alarmed.

However, because of Joey's previous investment experience, when Guell came to care, he asked very tactfully.

"Miss Fernandez, actually I want to say that you are not alone. You have many loyal friends among us - like me. If you get into any trouble, say, in case, I mean in case, the City Council Someone has caught your hand, and you don't have to be at their mercy. We won't stand by and watch you, a single girl, be treated unfairly."

Joey was about to laugh in his heart, and he still had to put on a sincere touch on his face: "Thank you, Mr. Earl. Don't worry, I'm really fine. After all, it's donated to the city government—I'm lucky If it is so good, maybe it can also reverse the luck of Montjuic. In that way, Montjuic will develop well, which is a good thing for everyone.”

"That's true," Guell smiled resignedly, "but I want you to know that you don't have to be so desperate all the time. We'll have your back."

Joey smiled and toasted him: "Thank you, Mr. Earl." If you knew my real identity, you might not think so.

If they had known that she was the Princess of Madrid, they would either have swarmed like flies around carrion for the royal money, or they would have distanced themselves from her entirely because of Catalonia's hostility to the South.

Joey sighed inwardly, this identity is like a timed/timed/bomb/bomb.

Fortunately, however, it is too early to consider these.After all, even Alfonso has not yet returned to Madrid to take the throne.

Now she still has time to make money and build her influence here.Montjuïc is also part of the money-making agenda.

"Hindsight" is such a good thing.

Why else can she stand on the shoulders of giants? As a student who has not accumulated any social experience in her previous life, she can get precious enlightenment just because she has read some famous ideas of successful people——

There was once an organization that wanted to buy a piece of land in a big city where land was very expensive, but the organization was too poor to afford it; all members were also very poor, and fundraising was unreasonable.

Then a family consortium decided to invest a huge sum of money to buy a piece of land and donate it to this institution.For this reason, they like to mention the unanimous ridicule of the major consortiums - people say that the rich can't be more than three generations, we say it is determined by the genes of the brain.

On the other hand, the organization that accepted the donation is of course very grateful.

Take soft hands, when the surrounding land is developed, you have to support it, right?

When people come to do business, can they be accommodated within the scope of the rules?

As for the growing influence of this institution, various global organizations wanted to set up offices near its headquarters, and dignitaries from all over the world came and went to this area every day, and expensive hotels, restaurants and other supporting facilities accompanied the land. It developed rapidly together, which is the story that everyone knows later.

That family, surnamed Rockefeller.

And that institution is called the United Nations.

Joey ignored the sympathetic or eccentric eyes and words of everyone at the ball.She has something to do today, so she has to leave early.

As soon as the time came, she pulled Antonio: "Let's go, let's go to work."

Today, they made an appointment with a local guide to go to Montjuic Mountain for investigation.

After biding farewell to everyone at the ball, the carriage quickly left the earl's house and drove through the narrow bluestone road and alley.The overall environment in this area is good. Joey opened the curtain comfortably and looked out the window at the houses with their own characteristics.

It seems that, influenced by the style of the Earl House, the architects of Barcelona have begun to develop eccentric creativity.

The carriage passed a chic bookstore.

Joey's eyes widened suddenly: "Sir, please stop the car!"

This is a bookstore.

"Does this lady want to buy books?" A woman poked her head out from the pile of books, her narrow bright green eyes sparkled, "Welcome to Olanpu's bookstore. I am Olanpu, the boss. "

This lady, who doesn't look thirty, has red hair simply wrapped in a headscarf, without any other headgear, and looks neat and generous.Her rosy cheeks, with many hazel freckles, paired with a pair of jewel-like green eyes and delicate thin lips, make her look a bit like a ghostly witch.

Joy jumped out of the carriage with his skirt in his hands, and couldn't wait to get close to him, and saw the book in the most prominent position——

"Jane Eyre".

The author has something to say: A cutie figured out the answer to the mystery of the United Nations headquarters!applaud!

Changed the name of the fat and irascible Mr. Speaker... Indeed, after reading the comments, I realized that the concentration of "Ba" in yesterday's chapter was too high!Westerners' names are really easy to remember orz

PS Let me tell you a joke: When the architects Abbas and his son first appeared, I wrote "Abano", but after revising the text, I found out that I made a mistake and wrote "Abbas", but no one found out hahahahaha hiccup

Thank you little angels for your concern!The author has had a daytime sleep today, and feels full of blood and revived!The Dragon Boat Festival will work harder~
