Legend of Xiangjiang Tycoon
Chapter 66: Home ownership
"Boss, I got the things back, you see how to deal with it." Cao Wenyu said.
This is already the third batch of antiques brought back by Cao Wenyu. The first two batches are relatively small. This batch looks a bit too much. I think the British Museum staff has tasted the sweetness.
Since Li Zhiwen and others left the British Museum, Cao Wenyu contacted the staff through a homeless man named Mohan Watkins.
At this time, Thatcherf had just become the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom. British state-owned enterprises have not yet begun to privatize on a large scale. State-owned enterprises still have many drawbacks. Excessive unemployment is one of the drawbacks of state-owned enterprises. This situation will not be until privatization starts. Gradually reduce, so there is no shortage of homeless people in Britain now.
And the staff member Cao Wenyu also figured it out. His name is Orson Perez. He is a gambler who owes a lot of loan sharks. He was forced to start thinking about museum exhibits in desperation.
Orson Perez had the idea of making a museum exhibit more than once, but there is no market for the Chinese cultural relics he is responsible for, and there are few people visiting, so he has not found a buyer, so he is very distressed.
In Orson Perez’s view, there are fewer Chinese cultural relics and the British Museum will not notice it. Just like Oson Perez said, many Chinese cultural relics in the warehouse are moldy. To exchange for some money, so he didn't feel any guilt at all.
When Mohan Watkins found Orson Perez seeking to buy cultural relics, he had no doubts at all, and there was no doubt about Li Zhiwen. After all, Li Zhiwen had already rejected him sternly at the time.
At first he wanted to sell it to Mohan Watkins for a price of 1,000 pounds, but Mohan Watkins refused. In his opinion, these artifacts are not worth that much money, if someone didn't ask for this batch of antiques. , Usually he doesn't even have the desire to take a look.
Afterwards, the two of you negotiated for a long time, and finally sold at a price of 100 pounds a pound.
What a ridiculous, priceless cultural relics, turned out to be sold by the catty.
But this is better for Li Zhiwen, after all, some small cultural relics are more valuable than large ones.
"Thanks, don't you have a tail." Li Zhiwen asked.
"No, I went around several times before I came to the hotel, but the boss is no way to get down like this. The antiques of Osen Perez are getting bigger and bigger, and more and more. If they are still in the hotel, they will be discovered sooner or later. Yes, we have to prepare early," Cao Wenyu said.
"I have considered what you said. I am planning to buy a property in London. After all, we will often come to the UK in the future. It is not very good every time we stay in a hotel. In addition, cultural relics also need a storage place. We will think about it before we leave. Ways to transport the cultural relics, otherwise it will always be a hidden danger in the UK." Li Zhiwen said.
"Boss, you have to think about it. As for the transportation of cultural relics out of the UK, it is best to transport them out of London first and then take the normal sea transportation. After all, not many people know these cultural relics." Cao Wenyu said.
"I see, what do you think is the best way to deal with the tramp Mohan Watkins?" Li Zhiwen asked.
"Boss, how about killing him?" Cao Wenyu said.
Li Zhiwen thought for a while and said: "No, this will arouse Osen Perez's vigilance. After all, the UK is not our own territory. I think we should arrange for him to travel abroad. Isn't Hong Kong a good tourist destination? If he doesn't cooperate, let him go." Li Zhiwen said.
Cao Wenyu nodded. This is the best way. If you rush to kill Mohan Watkins and be discovered by the London police, you will be in trouble.
Li Zhiwen bought a villa in Bexley on the outskirts of London from a real estate agent for £1 million. In addition, he bought two more cars, a sedan and a truck. After all, the cultural relics need to be transported. car.
Buying a truck will not look obtrusive, and it can be said that it is renovating the house.
Li Zhiwen bought not only the villa, but also the nearby lawn manor. The whole place occupies a very large area. Don't doubt the purchasing power of money in this era. It doesn't cost a lot of money to go out casually like later generations.
And because of the need to transfer antiques, he specially selected the large manor, which is deceptive.
This is a typical 18th century Italian-style country castle. According to the real estate agent, it was originally a hunting lodge. Later, the people who lived here gradually prospered, and after many renovations and hiring of famous architects, it became what it is now.
If there is prosperity, there will be decline. By the beginning of the 20th century, the family fell. The family sold the manor. After that, many people were transferred to Li Zhiwen.
The entire castle building is like the castle seen in the movie by later generations. There are three floors in total, and the residential area occupies more than 1,000 square meters.
The castle has round towers, narrow windows, semi-circular arches, and low domes. A large number of columns and vaults of various shapes are used to achieve a solid, heavy and powerful aesthetic effect. The narrow windows and the large internal space form a strong response, making the interior of the castle dim and giving people a mysterious and dark atmosphere. feel.
And the castle is surrounded by large lawns and trees dotted between them. The paths are paved with pebbles, and the flower beds on both sides of the paths are planted with various flowers, and the birds are chirping on the trees. , Giving people a sense of tranquility.
Li Zhiwen everyone walked on the small road, smelling the scent of flowers that floated, and the whole person felt a kind of relaxed and happy feeling.
"Brother Wen, this manor is really big and the house is really luxurious. If it is placed in Hong Kong, only Mid-Levels villas can compare with this. In the UK, this is just an ordinary manor, which is incredible." Zhong Chuhong said.
Although she was born as a small family, she has also seen luxury houses in Hong Kong. In her eyes, Hong Kong's luxury houses cannot be compared with here.
At the same time, Li Zhiwen’s worth was once again refreshed. The person who can randomly spend 1 million pounds to buy a house is completely beyond her imagination. If this is changed to Hong Kong dollars but more than 8 million, will he like herself? ? Zhong Chuhong was a little unconfident.
"Ah Hong, you can't compare like that. There is no comparability. Hong Kong has a population of more than 5 million. It's a good idea to say that an inch of land is not enough. The entire population of Bexley is less than 200,000, while the entire United Kingdom is only 50 million. There are too many wealthy people in the UK, and there are also many luxury houses, so it is reasonable to not highlight this house~www.readwn.com~ Li Zhiwen doesn't know Zhong Chuhong's thoughts, he just speaks truthfully.
I strolled for a while and saw that it was late. Li Zhiwen said, "It’s late, let’s cook together. It will take a long time for us to do it ourselves. Let you try my craft today."
"Yeah, boss, you can cook too. I'll help you." Cao Wenyu said. After so long together, Cao Wenyu also knows that Li Zhiwen is not a person with a high profile, so he dare to open Li Zhiwen when he is not talking about work. joke.
"No problem, just look okay." Li Zhiwen said. The only bodyguards who came to the manor with Li Zhiwen this time were Zhong Chuhong and Cao Wenyu. As for Zhao Hezhuo and others, they didn't bring them. After all, they have other tasks, and Zhu Yaofei. Monitor them in the hotel to prevent unnecessary trouble.
However, Li Zhiwen feels that it’s not safe to stay in the hotel. People come and go. Zhao Hezhuo’s and Zhu Yaofei’s total 30 people, and they are all Chinese, so they must be suspected. So when buying a house, I rented a villa in the City of London, just around the City of London, for seed fund operations.
When buying a house, the agent also asked him if he needed a chef and a housekeeper. Li Zhiwen thought for a while and refused his help.
After all, they can’t hire chefs and butlers in their current situation. Now the most important secret is that Cao Wenyu and others have withstood the test, while Zhong Chuhong and Li Zhiwen have long regarded her as his own woman and don’t need to hide it from her.
Everyone has been busy for more than an hour, and finally finished the meal. Naturally, the main force is Li Zhiwen and Zhong Chuhong, and the others are responsible for the fight.
Everyone had lunch beautifully, and Li Zhiwen lay on the sofa in the living room and squinted up. Recently, he was so tired and stressed that he fell asleep soon.
