Football giants

Chapter 329

If this blond-haired young man hadn't been mentioned, Yang Huan would have really forgotten about him.

The only male of the seventh generation of the Grosvenor family, the first heir to the Duke of Westminster, the Earl of Grosvenor.

This great reputation is not built on!
Hugh Grosvenor is still studying at Oxford University, but for a person who has never even thought about what he will do in the future, studying is of no use at all. Coupled with his background, Oxford University can't control him.

Therefore, this guy skipped classes every three days.

As soon as he heard that Yang Huan was going to London to supervise the battle, he immediately rushed back to London from Oxford.

Now, when he hears that the chairman is going to buy a house in London, he is even more obliged to do so.

Real estate, this is their Grosvenor Group's old business.

In the UK, when it comes to real estate, Grosvenor Group ranks second. Who dares to say that they are number one?

"Master Huan, if you want to buy a house in London, you must be in the Hyde Park area of ​​the West End. If you want to buy a house in this area, you can find me!"

Yang Huan looked at what this guy said, and smiled, "Are you so magical?"

Hugh Grosvenor nodded complacently, "You'll know if you try it?"

"Okay!" Yang Huan nodded, "I'll try it with you!"

Hugh Grosvenor seemed very happy for Yang Huan's trust, he laughed.

"Master Huan, then you have to tell me first, what kind of house do you plan to buy? What specific requirements do you have?"

Yang Huan thought for a while, "I don't like trouble. Old buildings have to be maintained every year. For me, it's too much trouble. I like new buildings!"

Yang Huan heard Kesh Harris mention that many foreign investors come to London to buy houses. They often choose some old houses, such as townhouses facing the street, or some single-family villas. What’s more, they will consider some old manors in the north.

To put it bluntly, those people bought these houses for one purpose, pretending to be B!

I heard that living in this kind of old building where the nobles used to live, you can find the footsteps of the nobles and transform yourself into a nobleman.

Yang Huan didn't like this very much.

Nobility is too unreliable, especially after witnessing those down-and-out nobles.

Moreover, many old buildings are on the list of cultural relics protected by the British government. If you don’t pay a sum of money every year to maintain them, the government will not take them back. The annual maintenance cost of some old buildings is even higher than the selling price of the house.

is it necessary?

"The house I want must first have a good location, a quiet environment, good public security, enough supporting facilities, and a bigger house. We live in a total of four people and need three rooms. Other guests are not excluded. It is best to separate the upstairs and downstairs."

Zhuang Ziqing couldn't help but nodded, Long Wu and Feng Jiu must live together.

Hugh Grosvenor nodded after listening, "Okay, I see, let me make a call first!"

With that said, he ran to the side to make a phone call.

Yang Huan and Zhuang Ziqing were sitting in the stands, waiting for the crowd to disperse, while discussing about buying a house.

In Southampton, Yang Huan has his own house, but Southampton is a bit far from London.

They are middle class and cannot afford a house in the city center, so they are forced to live in the suburbs, or go to Southampton.

But our Young Master Huan doesn't have the trouble of money, so we can't let our wife go back and forth every day, right?
Considering that Zhuang Ziqing will definitely continue to work in London in the future, and the house in London is at its lowest point, it must be a good deal to buy, so Yang Huan plans to buy a house in the West End.

Yang Huan used his spare money to buy a lot of real estate in London before, but most of them were office buildings or shops.

For example, on Bond Street, Yang Huan bought back the building in Asprey, and also bought several other shops, making a huge profit.

But these properties are definitely uninhabitable.

The dealer announced that he would give Zhuang Ziqing a house in the capital as a dowry, and Yang Huan's father also said that he would give a house in London and let the couple pick it out by themselves, and then he would pay for it.

So, if you don't buy this house, what a disadvantage, right?

Not long after, Hugh Grosvenor came back.

"Master Huan, it's all right, let's go first, he will be here soon."

Yang Huan has been in the UK for more than a year. Although he is not very familiar with London, he is very familiar with Knightsbridge Road.

The reason is simple. Harrods, the most famous luxury shopping mall in London, is nearby, and a little further on is Piccadilly Street. The branch of Wangjiang Pavilion is located in Harrods.

Yang Huan and his party got off in front of a high-end luxury residential area.

This is a diamond-shaped building with a uniquely designed exterior wall made of glass and steel.

Along the way, there are a total of four buildings connected together to form an independent living quarter.

"One Hyde Park?" Zhuang Ziqing had been in London for a long time, and she immediately recognized where she was.

"Yes, Miss Zhuang, One Hyde Park!"

Yang Huan smiled after hearing this, "Well, this place is not bad!"

Just kidding, can the world's leading building king be worse?

To the north of the complex is the beautiful Hyde Park, and to the south is the shopping paradise of Knightsbridge. The location is very good, the transportation is quite convenient, and the exterior design is also very outstanding.

Not bad, indeed not bad!

As soon as a group of people got out of the car, there was a British man in his thirties who was carrying a briefcase and wearing a pair of gentle eyes. He came up to him.

"Hello, Master Grosvenor!" He first greeted Hugh Grosvenor respectfully.

"Well, Miles, you're here!" Hugh Grosvenor, rather aristocratic, extended his hand to introduce Yang Huan.

"This Mr. Yang Huan is a distinguished guest of our family and the boss of our Saints fan club. Do you know what to do?"

Miles didn't understand, so he nodded immediately, "Understood, Master Grosvenor!"

"Several, please follow me!"

With that said, he walked towards the gate of the community first.

Yang Huan led Zhuang Ziqing, Hugh Grosvenor and others also walked over.

I kept observing these houses along the way, and it was not difficult to see from the outside that this neighborhood was extremely luxurious and high-end.

"No wonder he is known as the world's building king!" Yang Huan laughed and praised.

"By the way, Hugh, which one did Renato Akhmetov buy?"

"The farthest and shortest one!" Hugh Grosvenor said with a smile.

Zhuang Ziqing on the side was very surprised.

The front and back of the four buildings are relatively short, and the middle two are relatively tall. One has ten floors and the other has thirteen floors.

From the location point of view, the view of the two buildings in the middle is undoubtedly the best. Whether it is Hyde Park behind you or Knightsbridge in the south, you can have a panoramic view. It can be said that you can see the bustling night view of London.

It was previously reported by the media that Ukrainian billionaire Renato Akhmetov bought a mansion at One Hyde Park and spent 600 million pounds, setting a world record.

If the shortest one is worth the price, how much are the two middle ones worth?
How outrageous is the property price of One Hyde Park as a whole?

Yang Huan held Zhuang Ziqing's hand all the time, noticed her expression, and smiled slightly, "Money is not a problem, just buy it if you are satisfied!"

Zhuang Ziqing had no choice but to follow him in.

"One Hyde Park is the most luxurious real estate in the world. It is not unreasonable. There are 86 luxury houses here, and the owners of each luxury house are the richest and most influential people in the world, so there is no need for a sales hall at all."

Yang Huan listened to the introduction of the real estate agent Miles Wood, and nodded with a smile.

If such a high-end mansion is equipped with a sales hall, it will be downgraded.

Between every two buildings, there are two elevators, one of which is dedicated to the landlord of the mansion on the top floor, while the other elevator is used by the landlords on the remaining floors.

"Master Huan, I don't know which floor you want to see?" Miles Wood asked.

"Have all the duplex mansions on the top floor been sold out?" Yang Huan asked.

Miles Wood glanced at Hugh Grosvenor, who nodded before he replied: "The ten-storey building, the penthouse mansion has been bought by the Prime Minister of Qatar, Mr. Hamad, worth [-] million pounds."

The Prime Minister of Qatar bought it?
I bought [-] million pounds at the beginning, maybe it’s not worth it now, right?
Zhuang Ziqing was a little surprised, this is simply ridiculously expensive!
"And the outermost building, which is shorter, has already been sold. The buyer is a Russian oil oligarch. The [-]th-floor top floor in the middle was originally intended to be kept by the developers Candy Brothers for their own use, but..."

Yang Huan waved his hand with a smile, "All right, all right, just tell the truth!"

Miles Wood immediately looked to Hugh Grosvenor for help.

The latter laughed, "Master Huan, to tell you the truth, on the surface this real estate project was developed by the Kandy brothers, but in fact there are other financial support behind it. Otherwise, relying on these two brothers from Greece, no matter how rich they are, how could they possibly win this project?"

For this kind of golden real estate located in the core commercial area of ​​London, the world's financial center, it is impossible to do it with money alone.

The Candy brothers are just a shield to be pushed in front of everyone!

"I can't say too much, but what I can tell you is that the Qatar Investment Authority is one of them, so Hamad bought the top floor of the tenth-floor building for his son to live in when he was studying in the UK."

"And the price is about one-third of the rumored price!"

Yang Huan was taken aback for a moment, and then laughed.

"High, it is high!"

A set was sold for 3000 million pounds, but as soon as the media reported it, it became more than 1 million pounds. The housing prices here immediately rose, and then some other big guys from Ukraine, Russia and the Middle East were tricked into being slaughtered.

Just look at the people who live in One Hyde Park.

Vladimir Kim, chairman of the Kazakhstan Copper Corporation, is worth £23 billion.

Mohammed Sultan Al Qasmi, Minister of Finance of Sharjah, the third largest emirate of the United Arab Emirates.

Russia's oil oligarchs, Ukraine's mining giants, and some of the richest people in the Middle East.

They have come to London to invest in real estate over the years, but all of them have been tricked and slaughtered!
Maybe, now one or two are living in these few houses, happily helping them count the money.

In the future, if anyone says that British real estate is not profitable, Yang Huan will definitely spit on him!

The Qatar Investment Authority is equivalent to a state-owned enterprise in Qatar, and Hamad is the prime minister of Qatar. Naturally, there is no need to explain the relationship here.

What impressed Yang Huan was that in May 15, the Qatar Investment Authority under his control bought the Harrods shopping mall, a landmark building in London, from the Egyptian rich man Mohamed Fayed, who is also the owner of the Premier League team Fulham, at a price of [-] billion pounds.

So, there are not so many rich people in this world!
And from this point also indirectly quoted another thing.

There are people in the DPRK who do things well!
no one?

Then you can only be taken advantage of!
"Now I suddenly realize that your hype methods are much better than mine!" Yang Huan laughed.

Hugh Grosvenor also smiled, "No, Master Huan, my father has praised you more than once, thinking that you are more capable!"

"Really?" Yang Huan didn't argue.

Now that everything has been said clearly, there is no need to say more.

Hugh Grosvenor said this to himself, and he must have communicated with the Duke of Westminster long ago and got permission.

In this case, why buy a house by yourself, it can’t be more expensive than Hamad in Qatar, can it?

Thinking of this, Yang Huan felt that if he didn't buy a house here, he would be a fool!
"Honey, let's go, I'll take you to pick a house!"
