Chapter 1266: like father, like daughter

Back home in the evening, Annie and the housekeeper went to prepare dinner, and Li Changheng took Angela to the swimming pool, intending to teach the little one to swim.

As soon as the two of them got into the water, Annie came over with a smile on her face, holding a satellite phone.

"Henry, it's Charle's call."

Li Changheng suddenly misunderstood and asked, "Is he planning to get married, or is he causing trouble again?"

"No, no," Annie shook her head hurriedly, "Charle said he just received the news that you and Angela have an eye for the title."

As soon as Li Changheng heard it, he complained in his heart. To be honest, the matter of the title has been delayed for several years, and his patience has long since run out.

Moreover, I just signed a cooperation agreement with the United States during the day, and I found it at night, so I don’t have to guess that it must be related to oil and England’s economy.

However, England is not short of oil this time, and even because of the discovery of new oil fields in the North Sea in 1980, the crude oil reserves held by North Sea Petroleum suddenly increased from 5.7 billion barrels to more than 20 billion barrels.

If this number is correct, it is almost the same as the national crude oil reserves announced by the United States.

And the daily oil production has also soared from the previous 1.4 million barrels to 2 million barrels.

It suddenly changed from an importing country to a crude oil exporting country. During the second oil crisis, it was considered to have made a lot of money.

It must be people from Downing Street and Beihai Oilfield who came to the door now. Hearing the cooperation plan announced by the United States, they felt that the development of the new oilfield would affect their money.

And England should have guessed that they would definitely not give up on oil field development, so Charle called, not Philip.

Li Changheng, who wanted to understand this, didn't want to answer the phone, but after all, Char is also an uncle.

He picked up Angela who was fetching water from the water, and let her hug his neck and lie on his back.

Li Changheng swam his hands and kicked his feet, and took Angela to swim from the middle of the pool to the edge of the pool in just two or three strokes.

Suddenly Angela yelled, and when Li Changheng was lying on the edge of the pool, the little guy hugged him tightly and said, "Daddy, you are so good, teach me quickly, I want to swim far away in just one swipe!" .”

Li Changheng agreed with his mouth, but took the satellite phone in his hand.

As soon as he said 'Hello', Charle's laughter came from the phone, "Henry, what did Baby Angela want you to teach her?"

"Swimming", Li Changheng, who had no interest in chatting at first, and was not even interested in Char's so-called news, saw Char talking about Angela, and his mood was different.

As the first child of the family, Angela is also the only child who has been born so far except for the little one in Anne's womb. Not only is she extremely doted on by Philip and Mary.

Char and Andrew were really nice to Angela too.

It's a pity that the little guy probably eavesdropped on Li Changheng complaining about Char to Annie, so that Angela's attitude towards Char was obviously not close to Andrew.

After chatting for more than ten minutes, Li Changheng finally found out that after Meifu announced the cooperation plan with him as planned, the one-year crude oil futures contract plummeted from $39 per barrel to $35 in one afternoon.

Not to mention, Meifu secretly spread a gossip because he was sure that the company's stock price would usher in a period of skyrocketing.

Said they were exploring the possibility of merging with Gulf Oil.

Since Li Changheng can find new oil fields in the Gulf of Mexico, Americans take it for granted that the actual value of Gulf oil, which holds a large number of exploration rights in sea areas, is seriously underestimated.

Once this merger is realized, the new oil company will not only become the largest oil company in the world, but as long as oil is drilled from the oil field belonging to Angela, the United States will soon solve most of the crude oil gap.

As soon as the news came out, not only England’s North Sea oil panicked, but also some desert tyrants who advocated paying the price as they went and raising the price of crude oil during the oil crisis also panicked.

Following the first oil crisis in 1974, Li Changheng made a one-time profit of 1.8 billion US dollars.

The major oil giants and oil-producing countries are no longer pure oil companies, not only producing oil, but also calling the shots in the futures market.

Now the one-year futures contract has plummeted by $4, which is tantamount to cutting flesh on them.

Hearing that Charles invited his family back to London to participate in the Royal Horse Racing Festival in mid-June, Li Changheng couldn't help curling his lips, but seeing Annie's expectant expression, he could only reluctantly agree.

Anyway, after I went, the conditions offered by England could not impress me, so I just refused.

After hanging up the phone, Angela clamored to learn how to swim. Li Changheng held Angela's arm and taught him for half an hour. The little guy actually learned how to tread water.

Seeing that she would not sink, Angela suddenly became more courageous.

Let Li Changheng let go of himself, stepped on the water in the pool for ten minutes to get used to it, took a deep breath, held his breath, and swam over to the edge of the pool with hands and feet.

Annie almost cried out in fright, but of course Li Changheng would follow. After Angela's hands and feet were obviously messed up, he put his hand on her stomach and hugged her into his arms.

Angela seemed to know that her father would definitely protect her, so although she choked on water, she didn't cry or show fear after hugging Li Changheng's neck for breath.

Instead, he reached out to wipe off the water on his face, and asked with a smile, "Daddy, am I very good?"

Li Changheng laughed, and kissed Angela on the face, "Of course, my little one is the best."

With the compliment, Angela is more motivated to learn to swim.

According to Li Changheng's teaching, he was able to swim in the water after only a few tries.

It's just that the posture is not so much swimming as dog crawling.

But this also made Li Changheng sure that his daughter's learning ability is much better than ordinary children.

The longer I swam, the more standard my movements became, and I learned backstroke without a teacher.

And once you discover the backstroke, you don't have to worry about choking on the water~lightnovelpub.net~ Angela kicked the water with both feet, floating on the water and turning around Li Changheng.

This also made Li Changheng discover that the little guy's physical strength and resilience are excellent.

After swimming back and forth for four or five minutes, she stopped and hugged Li Changheng's neck, who had been following him all the time, and rested on his back.

Then within a few minutes, the little guy was led by Li Changheng to swim twice, and even made a few torpedo dives, and suddenly wanted to dive by himself again.

Standing up with both legs on Li Changheng's back, he jumped into the water with a yell.

Hold your breath and swim underwater.

So much so that Annie could see that Angela was a little unusual, because the time the little guy held his breath was really unexpected.

Fortunately, with Li Changheng's perverted father around, Annie wasn't too nervous or worried.

Instead, during dinner, he asked in a low voice, "Honey, is Angela the same as you?"
