American Fortune Life

It seems to be very simple to buy Highclere Castle, but the follow-up work is also very troublesome. To be honest, even the Earl of Carnarvon's family can't understand everything in the castle as w...lā

What Andy wants is the whole, so it must be detailed that the Earl's family can take away those things that belong to the Carnarvon family. However, this will destroy the original flavor of Highclere Castle.

Therefore, the transaction negotiation is not as simple as imagined, and Andy does not have so much time to waste waiting.

However, for the transaction of this castle, Andy will use the name of an offshore company to achieve the purpose of tax avoidance. With his authorized real estate team, he can complete the transaction independently.

At around three o'clock in the afternoon, the light rain finally stopped, but the gray sky still gave people a depressing feeling.

Andy took Amal into the car under the watchful eyes of the Earl and his real estate team, left the castle and returned to London.

"Now, there are about a thousand hereditary aristocrats in Britain. Until the 1870s, the aristocracy was the wealthiest, most powerful, and most attractive class in Britain, and they thought they were appointed by God.

But over the next hundred years, their wealth withered, their power lost, their charm faded, and even their collective identity was gradually and brutally curtailed.

In today's Britain, they try to hide themselves from the general public and become part of the middle class. "

Alma watched Highclere Castle slowly disappearing from sight, and after experiencing a traditional standard aristocratic etiquette lunch, he felt the unwillingness to decline and the pathetic powerlessness of persistence, and he couldn't help sighing.

"Hehe, I don't think the countess is trying to turn herself into a middle class. She has always been like a swan, reminding us all the time of their aristocratic superiority." Andy mocked a little.

"Hey, because you are Americans, maybe in her opinion, Americans generally think that the grass on the other side is greener. After all, there is no royal family and nobility in the United States, and the media of the two countries are always comparing each other, and many people are full of peace towards Britain. Actually different imagination.

Although this is a bit ridiculous, but you allow a bit of pride in a British woman who is busy making ends meet and racking her brains to keep the family assets, although it is a bit snobbish. "

Hearing Amar's obviously biased defense, Andy couldn't help shaking his head and laughing. Sure enough, people in any country are like this, that is, they can complain about their own country at will, but they can't tolerate half a word of bad things from outsiders!

"Amar, you have studied and lived in the United States. You should know that Americans never care about the outside world, and the British think too much." Andy raised his eyebrows and complained, which made Amal laugh coquettishly.

"Yeah, the United States is number one in the world. Everyone yearns for the United States and wants to go to the United States..." Amar laughed in a somewhat ironic tone.

Andy and Amar bickered and discussed all the way, chatting wildly, and could hear Amal's happy and charming laughter from time to time, the car was filled with joy, and the sense of distance and strangeness slowly dissipated in the laughter .

"No, thank you Andy, I have dinner with my parents."

After the team returned to London, Andy sent Amal a dinner invitation, but Amal tactfully declined with his big eyes and an elegant smile.

"Well, I can only invite you next time." Andy said with some regret after standing on the side of the road and hugging Amal close to each other.

"Thank you, goodbye." Amar is still a little uncomfortable with Andy holding her waist, and the veneer on her face. The British don't like veneering, especially women, and sometimes feel offended , but Amar did not refuse Andy's face-to-face gift, after all, she had studied and lived in the United States.

Seeing the tall Amal carrying a briefcase and stepping on high heels, he walked briskly up the steps. Before entering the apartment, he turned his head and smiled at Andy. After waving his hand, he walked quickly into the apartment hall middle.

Andy, who got back in the car,

Looking at the door of the apartment with narrowed eyes, he couldn't help shaking his head and laughing. The difficulty of this Legally Blonde strategy is definitely hell.

Buzz——

On the way back to Kensington, Andy took out his buzzing mobile phone, checked it and picked it up.

The call was from his little Versailles housekeeper George Jr. The wildfires in Santa Barbara have been burning for several days, and the hurricane-like winds have made the fire show no signs of abating. What's worse, it is still in Los Angeles County Another fire started.

The fire has burned more than 800 houses so far, and more than 30,000 people have been evacuated. The fire covered an area of ​​67 square kilometers and caused serious air pollution.

As the wildfires continued to burn, thick smoke almost covered the sky in the disaster area. The local air pollution level in Los Angeles has reached "extremely serious" levels, which is harmful to everyone.

The only good news is that the small Palace of Versailles is not in the area where the fire may spread, and the Shanhai Manor where the emperor lived is far away from Los Angeles County. In one day, Emperor Saiyan took little Laura to move to a mansion in San Francisco, so there was nothing to worry about.

However, the villas of Kate Beckinsale and Avril Lavigne were engulfed in flames, and the houses of many Hollywood stars were burned down. The entire disaster area was like a sea of ​​flames.

After telling Little George and the others to be safe, Andy hung up the phone and rubbed his chin for a while, then made a new call to the Dodgers management to inquire. After all, Dodgers Stadium is in the middle of a possible fire. on the route.

After learning that the management of the Dodgers team has set up a firebreak in the surrounding vegetation area and promised to keep an eye on the spread of the fire to deal with it, Andy is also relieved. After all, the construction of the economic circle around Dodger Stadium has begun. If it is really affected by this fire, it will really be a big loss.

Truth be told, the area around Los Angeles seems to be under a wildfire spell that falls every few years. In particular, the Angelis National Forest Park, which is known as the back garden of Los Angeles, is just like the 'flaming mountain'. Once it encounters extreme high temperatures, a wildfire will erupt properly.

Faced with this kind of irresistible disaster, Andy was also very helpless. After sending a greeting text message to some Hollywood stars affected by the disaster, he picked up the phone and called me Avril Lavigne, inviting her to have dinner in his mansion, and then Give her some comfort.

Of course, Andy will not forget Cheryl, whom he made an appointment with earlier. Avril would be very happy to have another playmate. People become good friends, so Cheryl can be regarded as having a good girlfriend in the United States.
