  To be honest, it took more than half an hour from the moment of landing to the edge of the lake in the garden in front of the castle. Due to the hot weather, everyone was out of breath and sweating on their heads. At this time, the Greek staff pointed to the artificial lake in front of the castle and introduced Yang Yong with a smile.

   "Mr. Yang, you see that this small lake covering an area of ​​more than ten acres was dug by hand, and the water in the lake is also collected from the rainwater from the sky."

   "The animals and plants in the lake are very rich. I remember that when I came here two months ago, I saw the existence of wild ducks in the reeds of the lake. I don't know if there are any now."

   At this time, Yang Yong took the iced mineral water sent by Smith and drank half of the bottle. Then he breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile. "There are still so many birds. Is the ecosystem in this lake so complete? The owner of this safe island is really whimsical. It's very good feng shui to be backed by the mountains and facing the water, but he has a heart."

   At this time, the Greek staff brought everyone to the shore of the small lake to sit on the stones to rest, pointing to the castle not far away and said with a smile. "This stone castle with two floors above ground and two floors underground, the stones above are by-products of the small lakes on the outside, because it is protected by a sunken cave behind it. After more than 200 years of history, the castle is still standing there without any trace of damage. "

"Even if it lasts a few hundred years, it will not be a problem, but the castle has been around for hundreds of years and no one lives there. The decoration is also very dilapidated in the style of 200 years ago. If you can buy the island, it will be a hassle to decorate the castle. thing."

   No, the natural conditions of the castle are so good, why has no one lived there for hundreds of years? Could it be another famous haunted house? Out of his professional habit, Yang Yong turned his eyes and asked the Greek staff what he said. "Mr. Ska, I am very satisfied with the natural environment of this island, but there is one thing I don't understand. Why has this island been so good for hundreds of years without being inhabited? Is there something wrong with this island?"

At this time, Mr. Ska shook his head with a smile, sighed and said, "Mr. Yang, you misunderstood, the reason why this Penn Island has been uninhabited for more than 100 years is not that this island is not good. It is not that this small island is not good. The castle is haunted, it's man-made."

"Anyone who has studied Greek history knows that Greece became independent after it got rid of the Ottoman Turkish Empire, and it didn't last long. At that time, the British Empire was the world's hegemony, and took this small island to his own Earl Payne. "

   "Because Earl Payne had no heirs in the end, the island was taken back by the British as a trustee. During the Crimean War, the island was taken back by the Greek government, but the two sides have been litigating."

"After so many years of competition, this island has finally returned to the embrace of Greece. Because the island is too small and only 8,100 acres. Although the natural conditions are excellent, even if it is redeveloped, it is still a small farm. It is better to sell it to those rich people as a farm. What about increased taxes on holiday islands?"

   It turns out that this Payne Island is no longer haunted, and there is nothing strange, which makes Yang Yong feel quite disappointed. After resting for a while, everyone stood up and walked through the dilapidated garden, bypassed the damaged fountain, and came to the gate of the castle. The gate of the castle was already rusted, and the iron art on it was the same as it was hundreds of years ago. The gate made of a mixture of iron and wood has begun to deform with the wind and rain over the years. It seems that this gate with a history of hundreds of years can no longer be preserved.

  The staff took out a very old key, inserted it into the keyhole and put it lightly, only to hear the wooden door opening from the middle with two clicks. What is surprising is that although this house has been closed for hundreds of years, there is no smell of corruption, and it feels very cool and a breeze blows.

   It’s just that the hall is rather dim, and seeing the colorful sunlight shining on the walls, you only know when you come in and look back. It turns out that the windows above the hall are all kinds of patterns made of stained glass. There are characters, religions, angels, and all kinds of animals. The seaside wind is very beautiful, but the patterns assembled by such ancient stained glass are beautiful. nice.

   But it is not suitable for light transmission. Shanghai was like this a few years ago, and the decoration was very fashionable, but it is not like this now. The dark room is not suitable for human living. It seems that the windows of this small castle need to be changed. Walking into the hall is a solid wood floor. Although the floor is covered with dust and crunching when stepped on, these wooden floors are not corrupted or deformed by moisture.

   It seems that the castle is still very dry, the hall is not big, only hundreds of square meters, and all kinds of portraits are painted on the surrounding walls. Needless to say, I also know that this is the portrait of the ancestors of Earl Payne. In the end, Earl En has no descendants to inherit the title. This island has been taken back by the British government, and no one lives in it until the Greek government.

   No one lives and no one destroys it, so the painted ancestor portraits on the surrounding walls are still very well preserved. No matter how good these portraits are, they will be eradicated when Yang Yong buys the island. Yang Yong will not tolerate the fact that it always feels weird to paint portraits of other people's ancestors in his room, as if he is being watched by the original owner of the house. This feeling is very bad, so these well-preserved oil paintings can only be artificially disappeared.

  The left side of the hall is the dining room and kitchen, the right side is the entrance to the storage room and the basement, and the opposite side of the living room is two marble-paved stairs. Going all the way to the second floor, following the stairs to the second floor, what you see is a small living room surrounded by wooden doors of the room. There is a master room, a study room, a baby room and two guest rooms, a total of five rooms. The area of ​​each room will not exceed hundreds of square meters, so the castle is very small, but it is very suitable for a family of more than ten people.

   There is also an attic. The entrance to the attic is in the study. The roof of this castle is made of piles of stones. A ceiling is separated from the attic. Although the attic is very small, it is still very good for a ten-year-old child to live in. The most important thing is that the area is large enough.

  It makes people feel very novel. All rooms can see sunlight, that is, there are windows on the left and right sides of the front. Only the back side facing the cave has no windows, and the lighting is very good. Of course, because of the quality of the glass, the room is very dark but not damp.

  The upstairs is the end of the visit, all the rooms are empty, and they have been closed for all these years and there is no mildew or deterioration to the downstairs. After visiting the kitchen, Yang Yong felt very interesting. The kitchen was in English style, and the stove in the kitchen was a combination stove in the Victorian period. The coal-fired and wood-fired fires are very well preserved. The most amazing thing is that there is a small oven in the middle of this combined stove.

  It can bake bread or roast chicken. The kitchen area reaches 50 square meters. It is an independent underground storage room. The temperature of this underground storage room is only 5 degrees above zero, and it is a natural insulation refrigerator.
