At five o'clock in the evening, it was already dark outside. Zhang Jing waited for two hours for Liu Xiaolu.
As expected.
If she were in Xiangjiang and Wangting, she would most likely be wearing a short leather skirt and a corseted short-sleeved T-shirt.
The weather in London is cold and rainy.
Her dressing style remains the same, including leather trousers, a thin slim coat, high-top leather boots, and a light beige sweater.
Wearing a high ponytail and light-colored sunglasses, overall she is still so cool.
It’s hard to imagine that she is an engineer and researcher in the battery industry.
Zhang Jing opened his arms in advance, and Liu Xiaolu, who was dragging a black suitcase in his hand, quickly stepped forward to hug and kiss his boyfriend.
Taking the suitcase from Liu Xiaolu, Zhang Jing hugged her slim waist and left the airport.
When they arrived at the boarding point, Di Long was already waiting and opened the rear door for Zhang Jing and Liu Xiaolu.
It runs through the city of London from east to west, and the total journey is about 35 kilometers to Creville Manor.
Because of the low and cold temperature, the 500-acre Creville Manor seemed deserted compared to the last time Zhang Jing visited.
There are almost no camping or leisure tourists.
Arriving at the luxury hotel located deep in the manor, Ti Long had prepared a warm room in advance, and Zhang Jing and Liu Xiaolu moved in directly.
Room on the third floor, family-style suite with living room.
Outside the front window is a small forest, and outside the back window is a golf course.
It should have been very beautiful, but because it was a rainy day and the time was in the evening, the scenery lost its beauty a lot.
No matter, Zhang Jing closed the curtains and carried Liu Xiaolu to the bed.
Began to eat!
After all, we were here to do something, so we only ate half the night, rested the rest of the night, and went to the restaurant for breakfast as usual the next morning.
Because it is a medieval-style hotel, the restaurant is also in the same style. Most people eating here wear suits and ties, which makes it feel quite serious.
There were not many guests, so Zhang Jing and Liu Xiaolu sat alone.
Holding the knife and fork in his hand, Liu Xiaolu asked the question on his mind, "Hubby, did you bring me out to play specifically?"
"I don't have much time to spend with you," Zhang Jing lied without blushing, "that's why we have this private date."
Liu Xiaolu looked at Zhang Jing and immediately smiled, without exposing anyone's lies.
Zhang Jing then remembered that Liu Xiaolu was not only a battery research engineer, but also understood micro-expressions.
However, what he was about to do was too terrible to tell Liu Xiaolu.
Zhang Jing didn't say anything, and Liu Xiaolu didn't intend to ask. He was very happy to be alone with his boyfriend, enjoying breakfast quietly.
It should be noted that, like Kelly, Liu Xiaolu does not need marriage.
She was all about developing flexible batteries, which was her pursuit.
But this is something that costs money, and she also needs a boyfriend, and Zhang Jing is the perfect candidate.
Thinking of happiness, half way through breakfast, Liu Xiaolu acted coquettishly and asked for a kiss across the dining table.
Zhang Jing stood up, stood across the small dining table, bent down, and touched her lips lightly.
It felt very sweet. Liu Xiaolu asked in a soft voice, "Husband, how did you buy this place?"
"Robbed."
Looking at her boyfriend's eyes and expression, Liu Xiaolu took three seconds to realize that Zhang Jing was telling the truth.
Unbelievable.
Although the Dilian family still exists and is inherited by collateral lines, all the core members have died.
Just when Liu Xiaolu was distracted, a man and a woman came to the dining table to say hello, "Mr. Zhang, long time no see."
"Mr. Kane Qiao, Miss Faye White," Zhang Jing had a good memory and called out their names directly, "Good morning."
Kane Joe works for the British Museum in Dayin and also works for the Yamen. He is about forty years old and looks like a gentleman.
The last time we met was when Katie was playing in London and was maliciously embarrassed by the black referee and maliciously disturbed by the poor quality of the audience.
Zhang Jing sent away the family of the female referee and the family of the spectator who was happiest in causing havoc.
Because of this incident, he was designated as a suspect and wore an anklet.
Kane Qiao appeared at that time. He was a very sensible person and was not hostile to Zhang Jing.
Faye White is a scheming woman whom Zhang Jing met at the riverside castle he bought for 280,000 pounds.
It was raining heavily and she was riding a motorcycle. She said she was riding along the island and asked to take shelter in the castle.
Thoughts flashed through his mind, and Zhang Jing asked interestingly, "What is your relationship?"
"Faye is my cousin," Kane Qiao, who kept his image intact, said in a relaxed tone, "She must come here and want to meet you."
Zhang Jing smiled and looked at Faye White, who was in her thirties but a little shy, "Miss Faye, long time no see."
"Long time no see," Faye White said a little excitedly, "How are you doing lately?"
"I am fine, and you?"
"I am fine too."
"Mr. Kane," Zhang Jing did not introduce Liu Xiaolu and looked back at Kane Qiao, whose image was impeccable. "What is it that requires you to make a special trip?"
"Can I talk to you alone?"
Zhang Jing nodded and left his chair, walking towards the corner of the restaurant.
Kane.Jo follows.
There was no one else in the corner, so Kane Joe went straight to the point, "Crivier Manor, someone wants to buy it, double the price."
"Not for sale," Zhang Jing shook his head, "It's not about the price, it's not for sale, my favorite."
"In addition to the double price," Kane Joe continued to add, "you will get the title of baronet and a hundred acres of hereditary fiefdom."
Zhang Jing Haha, for some older people, being knighted is very attractive.
In fact, it is just a piece of paper with no practical use.
"Thank you," Zhang Jing refused with a clear attitude, "I love London and I love Creville Manor. I won't mention this matter in the future."
"Mr. Zhang, anything can be priced."
"OK," Zhang Jing decided to be fair, "there are big bosses in District D who also want to buy Crevel Manor;
The quotation I gave him is a small target of 200 meters. If you are willing to buy it, it will be at this price. "
Kane Qiao took a breath of air, Zhang Jing really dared to ask for an exorbitant price.
"I don't want to sell, and I'm not short of money," Zhang Jing defended himself, "If you want to buy it, this is the price."
Kane Qiao nodded, "I'm just the middleman. I will give your asking price back to the buyer."
"Thank you," Zhang Jing said in a good mood, "If the deal is concluded, I will give you and Miss Faye each a Tiger bulletproof car."
Kane Qiao, whose image was impeccable, smiled and felt that Zhang Jing was difficult to deal with.
soon.
The boss behind the scenes was aware of Zhang Jing's sky-high asking price, and at the same time felt Zhang Jing's determination not to sell, so he quoted a price in a direction that could not be negotiated.
but!
The boss behind the scenes wants to say that Zhang Jing is still too young. Is it an accident that the Amu royal family and wealth have been passed down to this day?
NO!
The Amu royal family and the royal family's wealth have been passed down to this day by suffering losses.
The 5,000-acre Windsor Park is estimated at US$20.5 billion, the Platinum Palace at US$4.9 billion, the 54,500-hectare Principality of Cornwall at US$1.3 billion, the 18,433-hectare Principality of Lancaster at US$748 million, Kensington Palace at US$630 million, and the Scottish Royal Manor. $592 million and more.
There are no less than 30 high-quality large-scale manors, castles, and farms.
There are more than 7,000 square kilometers of private land and more than one million pieces of various cultural relics and artworks.
All these things were accumulated from 1,000 years ago.
The point is, over the long years, most of these high-quality assets were bought at several times or ten times the price at that time.
Looking back thirty, sixty, one hundred, or three hundred years later, the price purchased at that time was very cost-effective.
Also take into account currency over-issuance and devaluation.
For example, 1,200 meters in 1936 is equivalent to 350 million meters today.
Zhang Jing thought he had a very bad conscience when he reported a small target of 200 meters.
When time is extended long enough, money is just paper, and land is eternal.
