Chapter 639 The History of the Ancient Castle
Regarding the upcoming domestic epidemic, Yang Xing asked himself that he did his best. Then, his nature of fear of death prevailed again. This virus was extremely fierce. "sars" homophonic to "kill". It does not recognize whether you are rich or poor, and they will kill them all.
Now his family has a great career. Since he is incapable of immunizing his wife, children, relatives and friends, he can only secretly take care of them from danger. Otherwise, he will be really sorry if he really hits it. So not long after the South Korean and Japanese World Cup ended, Yang Xing informed Zhang Shengli and others, warning them that the country will be in danger from the end of the year to the first half of next year, so try to find a way to stay abroad for more days.
Most of his family members received notices early and were received abroad. In order to avoid unnecessary panic caused by rumors, he used the banner that his older children were over one year old and would have a few more births at the end of the year. They could not always stay in the middle of the well and watch the sky. They wanted the babies to travel around the world this time to increase their knowledge and broaden their horizons, and they just invited their parents and relatives to travel together.
As for the changes in international situations that a child who is only one year old can see, it is not within the scope of consideration. Someone pays the bill to let him travel around the world, and of course no one will refuse such a great thing. Since Yang and Liu families became prosperous, they have achieved enlightenment and become rich together with the help of funds from various families. This is commonplace.
After Yang Xing spent a lot of money to hold a grand engagement banquet for the "fiancee" and also guided their parents and family's ways of making money from time to time. Although many of the female family members still find it difficult to calm their daughters' daughters' mistresses, and they may have to be angry after "five, six, seven, and eight women", Yang Xing paid for free to invite everyone around the world for free, which at least eliminated the resentment of many of the female family's family's hearts, making everyone's impression of him much better.
Since Yang Xing has taken care of his relatives and friends, of course, his wife and children should be taken care of more deliberately. The crying children are thrown to their grandparents or grandparents who dote on them, just so that He Guizhi's nerves were tense due to food storms in the previous stage. The mother and expectant mothers followed Yang Xing to a new gift specially prepared for their "multi-person world" to fully enjoy their childhood princess dream come true in an ancient castle in Switzerland.
Since Yang Xing wanted to hide out during the sacrificial period, he was cautious about the "sustainment place". He remembered that the main transmission area of ** was in Southeast Asia and the country. If Hong Kong became a severely affected area and the streets were sparsely populated, it would be difficult to deal with it. However, Canada is probably the only one in Europe and the United States that has been affected. It just so happened that Yang Xing had a lot of European and American businesses, so he just wanted to go there for vacation.
Not long ago, he handed over the shift to Jack Welch. The specific business activities of the company have been handed over to Welch. He has been planning for several years for the sake of the ** matter. He still acted on his own initiative and started a food storm that shouted "The Wolf is Coming", which greatly increased the vigilance of the Chinese people towards the public health field, but it has also become the target of public criticism. Now what he should do most is to hide in a low-key manner and wait for the storm to gradually subside.
It is undoubtedly a good idea to spend a romantic holiday in a European castle with a group of beauties. After all, every girl has a dream in her heart. That is, one day, a prince will ride a white horse to greet her, kneel down on one knee in front of a dreamlike castle, give herself a big diamond ring, and said affectionately, "Will you marry me?"
Now this dream has come true. The prince not only rode a white horse, but also landed in front of a picturesque lake in Switzerland in a white private plane. A quaint castle stands beside the lake. He put on himself not only a diamond ring, but a full set of jewelry made of various gems, jade and pearls. The only regret is that the "Prince" proposed more than one person. He heard a group of female voices answering "I do!" Those who didn't know thought it was a choir singing.
Although I want to share it with other women, being able to wander in the castle that reflects the snow-capped mountains and blue sky in the distance, with a simple and solemn shape, like the real version of the Disneyland logo, has made most women excited. What's more, Yang Xing also announced that he bought more than one such castle, but other similar ones are also in France, Germany, Italy, Britain and other countries. If they like this during this period, they can even change to a castle every month until they want to vomit!
The girls despise Yang Xing's nouveau riche's thinking. It's such a romantic thing to spend a lifetime in a century-old castle between the blue sky and clear water. If they could still open the windows of exotic castles with different historical styles and enjoy the scenery of spring and autumn, it would be a joy that even gods would never change. How could they live until they vomit?
As a result, when they saw Yang Xing laughing, they only realized that the world was indeed a difference between reality and dreams. Yang Xing told them that the original intention of the establishment of the European castle was not related to the trend, flowers, snow and moon, and its original function was only for one purpose-that was war.
In the Middle Ages, Europe implemented a feudal lord system, and there were many lords in a small area. They not only had to swear allegiance to the king, send people to fight foreign countries, but also had to beware of the mutual covetous territory between neighbors. This led to the frequency of small-scale wars in medieval Europe. This long-term situation of war allowed the feudal lords to build many castles to ensure their own interests.
These castles can accommodate a certain number of people, with outstanding defenses in the tall walls, and have certain water and food reserves inside, which can support long-term battles. For wars between feudal lords, which generally do not exceed a thousand people, solid castles are difficult to break through and besiege. Therefore, everyone rushed to repair the special castles, and as the scale of the castles expanded, some famous castles were also given responsibilities such as cultural and political centers other than military intentions.
The towering towers of the castle that the women admired were used for observation and signaling at that time; the thick and tall walls made of stone were used to resist enemy climbing and siege machinery; the narrow windows were used to fire arrows and monitor enemy dynamics; so the lighting inside the castle has always been not good. The romantic feelings of the women were actually placed on a blood-dyeed military fortress. No wonder many ghost movies in Europe and the United States like to use the castle as the background, and the gloomy and dark style inside is indeed scary!
After Yang Xing said this, all the girls felt that the hairs on their necks were standing up. He was not willing to give up and continued to add fuel to the fire. Nowadays, the castles in many places in Europe are not popular, but hot potatoes that the successors are eager to take. Due to the protection of historical monuments by European countries, many castle owners are very troubled by the high cost of repairing and maintaining castles.
An ancient castle covers a vast area and has many internal rooms. Due to historical reasons, it is also very dilapidated. To redecorate, it is necessary to face the cumbersome cultural relics protection laws of various European countries. It is said that even nails must be reported to the competent authorities. Some people have estimated that the annual maintenance cost of a medium-sized castle is no less than 100,000 US dollars, which is difficult for others except for some super rich people.
Therefore, in addition to some of the most famous castles in Europe being taken back by the government and maintained as tourist attractions, some of the castles were converted into hotels, some were used as movies, TV theaters, and some were repeatedly resold. Most of the remaining castles were ignored and buried in the long river of history. It is said that in order to preserve historical relics, Germany, France and other countries once launched a one-yuan purchase of castles. Buyers only need to ensure that they can maintain the castles well, but the result is few. Therefore, Yang Xing easily bought many castles in Europe, and the cost was much lower than that of the women.
After hearing what he said, the girls felt that their beautiful dreams were shattered like soap bubbles, and they refused to give in and punished him. Yang Xing had to beg for forgiveness and explained that the castle had completely evolved into a part of the manor in modern times. The girls remembered that a magnificent castle in the deep shade of the tree was more of a residence in the British and French manors, and its decoration significance was far greater than practical. The Palace of Versailles in France was a representative of it.
The manor Yang Xing bought in the UK and France this time is much more practical than the medieval castle in front of him. The winery of France is a well-known brand of red wine, and the family heritage of a certain outdated duke. Not to mention the area of the manor attached, the original owner's family was also very obsessed with equestrianism. The horse house and horse track of the manor are both at the World Championship level. There is a daily leisure activity in the best European society.
When he talked about this, all the girls came to their senses. Yang Xing never spent money to do useless work. He must have a lot of intention to buy these ancient castles. On the surface, the property rights of these ancient castles will be placed in their names and their children. It seems to be for leisure and vacation, but in fact, it is probably a letter of fame. The ancient castle is an invitation to join the upper class of Europe and the United States?
Yang Xing nodded in agreement with their guess, "Now people want clothes, Buddhas and gold clothes. Last time I joined hands with many European families to touch American cakes, and everyone was happy to cooperate. These partners invited me to join their circle. You also know that these European nobles are often immersed in the glory of their families, and inviting them to negotiate in such a historic castle, which is not only a sign of respect for them, but also a sign of my strength."
"What's more, the rich people in China have always been very yearning for the luxury life of European aristocrats. Our company is developing its own luxury goods business. At that time, we invite them to come here to experience life. We can not only charge classes, but also sell company products at the same time. Wouldn't we kill two birds with one stone?"
