Chapter 1708: Chapter 1706: Young Master of the Blackbird Family

After seeing the situation inside the factory, the leaders from the county were nothing but shocked. They had not anticipated finding such an incredibly powerful company hidden within this village.

The county’s number one figure tightly clutched Peter Brown’s hand and said, "Seeing your development, I see the hope for Elegant Nation’s rise. Ten thousand acres of land is hardly sufficient for you to expand, you should further enlarge the factory facilities. How about it? How much more land do you need? The surrounding land can all be requisitioned for you."

Peter Brown also had a good impression of this arrival from the county number one, and merely nodded slightly, saying, "Indeed, we do need a large amount of land here. If possible, another several ten thousand acres of surrounding land can be requisitioned."

"That’s great," came the response.

With such a large company settling here, the county leaders naturally felt elated.

After seeing off these county leaders, Peter Brown began considering the issue of hiring some workers. Having everything done by robots was after all not quite fitting. Thinking about the several ten thousand acres of land that would be requisitioned, Peter Brown had an idea. Now, with this place as the core area inhabited by his own family, having robots for protection was entirely feasible. The newly acquired land could serve as the working and living area for general personnel, where humans could work, thereby solving some employment issues.

Peter Brown had already thought it through, with so many products launched, many people would lose jobs. He must provide them with new employment opportunities; otherwise, far from earning merits, he would be engaging in demerit actions.

Peter Brown made a call directly to Reid Nelson.

Upon receiving Peter Brown’s call, Reid Nelson said with a wry smile, "Peter, it’s really driving me crazy. Now, I have to handle too many calls every day. What should I do!"

Peter Brown shared his ideas briefly and said to Reid Nelson, "Move your company here. In the next step, core parts will be produced by robots to avoid leaks, while general components will be produced by humans. You and Ivy Cooper will fully oversee the work here."

With the Flying Car, it didn’t matter anymore whether people thought about urban or rural work.

Reid Nelson laughed and said, "I was just about to discuss this with you. Now too many people, many of whom are elite talents, want to join our company. I was wondering what to do about it."

"That’s great then. Just select the needed personnel to recruit. You can hire people from any field. I will delve into various aspects next. We are not short of money now, the second batch of a thousand people’s Flying Cars will be launched soon, and I believe it will quickly generate a large amount of money."

"So soon? If robots can produce, why do we still need so many jobs?" Reid Nelson was also somewhat surprised.

"I will be making some adjustments to my next steps. Robots will have other things to do, so wherever production can be carried out by people, let’s use humans. We are looking for talents in technical jobs and research fields."

Now Reid Nelson really had changed from her former self. Since the product launch event, she naturally became the center of attention. Wherever she went, she was received with high standards. Since everyone could not find the actual holder, Peter Brown, Reid Nelson became the first person people wanted to appease. Ivy Cooper’s status also rose drastically, entirely different from before.

Now, people from those former branch companies would occasionally call Ivy Cooper to network.

After ending the call, Reid Nelson said to Ivy Cooper, "The boss said to requisition another several ten thousand acres of land, and he wants us to go back to oversee it."

Ivy Cooper smiled and said, "The boss is really going big!"

Although slightly envious that Reid Nelson owned 1% of the shares while she owned none, Ivy Cooper knew full well she couldn’t compare to Reid Nelson, a woman who had closely followed Peter Brown from the very beginning.

Sometimes, thinking about it, Ivy Cooper sighed to herself. Had she known how powerful Peter Brown was, she would have used any means to become his wife. It was a pity.

However, thinking about her current situation, Ivy Cooper felt content. Even without shares, making several million dollars a year was far beyond her expectations.

Peter Brown had just hung up the phone when another group of people arrived.

Initially, Peter Brown didn’t want to deal with these newcomers, but realized that several of the county leaders who had just left were trailing behind them, indicating that a significant figure had arrived.

After welcoming these people inside, the leader, a middle-aged man, looked around before turning to Peter Brown and saying, "I am Shepard Wilson, the General Manager of Global International."

Before Peter Brown could speak, a beautiful female robot beside him had already spat out a printout.

Peter Brown took it, glanced over it, and his expression hardened. The AI immediately produced information about this company.

"A state-controlled company!"

"It seems your information here is truly formidable," he noted.

Seeing that Peter Brown had read the content on the material and commented on the company’s situation, the middle-aged man smiled and nodded.

"The second largest shareholder is the Blackbird Family? This company might as well be said to be controlled by the Blackbird Family," Peter Brown scrutinized further and discovered a new situation.

With a laugh, Shepard Wilson said, "It’s state-owned, that’s for certain. My purpose for coming here is to discuss your company’s affairs with CEO_Wang."

Without needing to guess, Peter Brown already knew the other party’s intentions, but he wanted to hear exactly what he wanted to say.

The robot had also prepared tea and served it to everyone present.

Shepard Wilson’s gaze lingered on the robot, his eyes revealing a longing look.

Peter Brown wasn’t in a hurry, such matters always needed resolving, and more and more people like this would come. Peter Brown considered whether he should assert his authority again, having already established his dominance over the Collins Clan and the Jones Family in the City, with the Collins Clan capitulating and the Jones Family collapsing. Now that people from Kingston had come, it seemed he needed to assert his authority once more.

Unaware of what Peter Brown was thinking, Shepard Wilson was already very calm internally. With the tremendous power of the Blackbird Family behind him, he believed he could definitely suppress Peter Brown.

At that moment, a young man looked at Peter Brown and said, "CEO_Wang, I guess you are not very aware of the Blackbird Family’s situation. Let me introduce them to you. This is Shepard Wilson, the young master of the Blackbird Family. The Blackbird Family is not an ordinary family and has considerable influence throughout Elegant Nation. It’s fair to say that if the Blackbird Family stomps its foot, the entire Elegant Nation feels a tremor. If your company receives the protection and support of the Blackbird Family, I believe it will develop even more rapidly."
