<h4>Chapter 141 Time of Changes 3</h4>


    Jake took this cue to talk to Jenny about it, he realized she looked a little ufortable, but as Jake had told Joseph before he thought it was good that he met her parents as soon as possible.


    As for introducing Jenny to her mother, Jake was sure Eva would ept her as Jake had already agreed after all Eva trusted Jake and knew that her son was mature to choose a girlfriend.


    "Taking advantage of the fact that Joseph touched on this subject I think that after I return from traveling on these holidays it might be a good time for me to meet your parents, do not you think Jenny?"


    After Jake said that, Joseph continued to smile because he thought it was a good idea, but Jake noticed that Liza and Jenny looked a little panicked after Jake said that, they probably did not expect Jake to talk about it in front of friends.


    But Jake did not think so, after all, Joseph was his friend and Liza was Jenny’s friend, they were practically family in Jake’s eyes, he looked at Jenny who seemed to be struggling to think.


    "If it’s about your brother you do not have to worry about it Jenny if you want we can have dinner at a restaurant and just invite your parents."


    As Jenny realized that Jake was looking for an answer now she knew she could not get away from it.


    "Let me think a little bit more about it and so I take it to talk to my mother when youe back from your vacation we talk about it again."


    Jake thought it was a good idea for her to talk to her mom first as Liza did and then it would be easier to talk to them and she thought it was okay when Jake agreed he realized that Liza and Jenny looked relieved and found some weird.


    So Jake returned home and now had to prepare for the trip that would be in a few days, so he told his mother that maybe after they returned from travel he would bring Jenny to meet her, Eva was very happy about it.


    After a few more days Jake warned everyone that he would travel for a month and so went to Brazil with Eva, Jake’s first stop was Bahia, a ce that may well represent a part of the country’s culture.


    They arrived at the time of the summer so they felt a great heat when they arrived, they went to Salvador that would be where they would make the first stop.


    From there they went to visit the Chapada Diamantina which is one of the most beautiful ces in this state.


    Later in the time they stayed in the city they ate the Brazilian foods like Acarajé, Vatapá, Tapioca, cocada, brigadeiro, and then they went to the beach to finish the trip in the city.


    As the distances between the cities were very great Jake decided to rent a helicopter to go from state to state, from Bahia they went to Rio de Janeiro.


    Taking advantage of the fact that they were by helicopter, they made a circle in the city sky and saw the redeeming Christ, sugar loaf and the Corcovado, then they returned to the hotel.


    From there they went from Helicopter to the state of Sao Paulo, they went to know a little the state that is wonderful, there they ate feijoada, a?aí, barbecue, and cheese bread.


    From there they went to Paraná to visit Foz do Igua?u which is a ce that has to be seen on a trip to Brazil, Jake spent his birthday in a hotel near there.


    After that, they returned home, this would be another very hectic year for Jake after they came back it was still a little more than a month before school started.


    As soon as he arrived Matthew asked Jake toe to his house because he would have some things to talk about, Jake epted and went there as he did not have much to do these days before the beginning of sses.


    Matthew’s house was muchrger than the house that Oliver and Joseph now lived, Oliver decided to leave this house when they decided that they would put Joseph in a public school for a while.


    But after so many years even after Joseph went back to school at a private school, Oliver decided not to go back to this house and live where they were definitely, Joseph also got used to a simpler life and agreed with his father.


    So Matthew was the only one who lived in this house thesest few years, when Jake got there the maid took him to where Matthew was, after walking for a while Jake realized he was going to the living room.


    It seemed that Matthew was different from Oliver who used to stay at the office all the time, after taking Jake into the living room the maid left and Jake went in there by himself.


    "Hi Jake, thank you foring here so suddenly."


    "It’s okay, I have plenty of free time before the sses eat, but what did you need that called me here?"


    "As you’ve helped me so much thesest few months I know you’ve been studying a lot about economics and business management in thest few years, so I’ve prepared a document with mypany’s current situation after making some changes as you suggested."


    So Jake looked at the table and saw that he had some documents, as Matthew had given permission he felt in an empty chair and picked up the documents to begin to see.


    As Jake looked at the documents Matthew looked at him, these documents could only be understood by those who worked withpanies for a long time, even Oliver who apanied Matthew for many years did not understand everything about these documents, but Matthew knew that Jake read many books I wanted to see how much he understood.


    Of course, he did not want toplicate things for Jake and was just curious to see how much he learned if Jake did not understand something Matthew would exin about everything.


    But even if he had not read any of the books he read, as Jake worked for many years in apany that ran the ounting records of manypanies, he had an obligation to read such a document.


    Reading this document Jake can see that Matthew had invested arge amount of money to create a new department in hispany to research new technologies and another department only for the digital technology that was the most important for thepany now.


    Matthew was reallypetent at what he was doing, as well as looking at whether it was true thatpetingpanies were researching digital cameras, Matthew had already met some people who started working on it and brought them to hispany.


    It seemed that Matthew’spany was now one of the first to sell digital cameras on the market, of course, this quick action from Matthew was only possible because he had more than 70 percent of thepany’s control, which means that if Matthew decided anything he could do without having to consult other shareholders.


    Jake can also see in the documents that the growth of thepany had stagnated before that, that is to say, that the market was weak in the present times for the cameras, then it could be good for thesepanies that new technology was developed.


    Then Jake took advantage of having all the information about Matthew’spany in his hands and used his active second job skill at Business Vision and saw that the light was green which meant that thepany would seed in the next three years at least.


    Then Jake put the papers back on the table and smiled, Matthew, who was waiting for Jake to ask something, found it a bit strange what Jake had done.


    "It looks like everything is fine with Matthew now, even if you’ve made huge investments these past few months, with these new departments you’ve set up your business is ready for when digital technology is established."


    "But you have to prepare to invest even more money into it in the future, and when you are sure about the technology I would rmend that you try to quickly sell the machines yourpany needed to make the old photo machines, so you would have more money to buy the new ones."


    Matthew was a bit surprised after Jake started talking, but he still paid close attention to everything, what Jake said was exactly the same as some people who worked with him said when they heard about the possible change of technology.


    "Did you understand everything in the Jake document?"


    "Had not he been prepared for me to see?"


    "Yes, you’re right, I just thought I might have some things you did not understand."


    "I understood everything, it was like I said to you, now we’ll have to wait to see the development of the market and the new technologies before we begin to manufacture digital cameras and start selling."


    "I would also rmend that you could talk to somepanies that create new digital file storage technology, thesepanies now work more withputerpanies, but you can see if they can create something for yourpany as well."


    Jake was thinking, of course, on the memory card that anyone with a cell phone or digital camera would know about it in the future, but he did not know if thepanies had started to create that at the time, but if they had, Matthew could be one of the first customers of thesepanies now.


    When the inte bubble burst in a few years, manypanies will be scared to see a sudden drop in the value of theirpany in the market, this could be a good opportunity for Matthew’spany to make new partnerships and grow more in the market.


    Matthew had realized that Jake had not only understood the report he had prepared but also had already thought of what to do after that if Matthew did not know that Jake had his ownpany and had not finished school yet he would still call him to work in hispany now.
