I Am a Nobleman in England

Chapter 16 You can only live once!

"Count, if you really want to grow grass, you might as well increase the planting area and plant grass on the periphery of the main garden area of ​​the entire manor. If the planting amount reaches 100 acres, we can apply for subsidies from the UK and the EU at the same time.

In this way, the cost of 100 to 200 pounds per acre can be offset. In fact, when the government introduced the policy of subsidizing pasture planting, your father also considered it at the time, but he did not expect to be diagnosed with cancer soon after. The matter was dropped.

If you really decide to plant grass, then I will arrange to go ahead and fill out an application for subsidies from the government. "

Hearing Arthur's proposal, Paul the housekeeper directly came up with a more mature plan, and it was still the one that made a lot of money.

"Is there such a good thing?" Arthur raised his eyebrows and asked back after being slightly taken aback. Without waiting for Paul's response, he made up his mind and said, "Since there is a subsidy, then it is expanding, as long as it does not affect the landscape within the main area of ​​the manor castle. It can be planted in other places, anyway, it looks green from a distance.”

"Okay, in fact, we have already measured that we can only plant 200 acres of grass at most, because the remaining areas are not connected in a large area, and are separated by two small lakes and rivers. When the time comes, it will be a bit troublesome to harvest. .”

"Then according to the original plan, 200 acres. As for other areas, you can see if you can plant other economic plants. In terms of scenery, the main garden area of ​​the manor is enough to appreciate." Arthur said without hesitation. So he made a decision, the subsidy of more than 100,000 pounds per year, this kind of money can not be earned.

Although planting landscape lawns will make the scenery of the manor more beautiful, but compared with the pound, it is good-looking!

"Understood, please rest assured, Earl, I will take care of everything." Paul nodded slightly and said respectfully.

"Please, Paul." Arthur said with a smile. In fact, he also had complicated emotions in his heart. Sometimes it might not be a good thing because his subordinates are too capable, because it would make him look like a novice who doesn't understand anything.

Well, although he was originally a novice who didn't understand anything.

"It's okay. I'm going out first. Lunch will be ready in a while, and I'll come to invite you to eat." Paul smiled and said to Arthur, then turned and walked out with a slight bow.

Arthur stood up and watched Paul leave. When he reached the door, Arthur was about to sit down. Paul, who was opening the door, looked back at Arthur and said with a kind expression on his face, "Mr. It's great to have you back!"

Arthur was taken aback for a moment, then the smile on his face became bright, he nodded slightly and said, "This is my home."

Hearing this, the smile on Paul's face became even happier. He turned around and gave Arthur a gentleman's salute again. He turned around, straightened his back, raised his chin slightly, walked out of the study, and closed the door behind him.

"Hehe, I didn't expect that I would become the backbone of a group of people. I'm really flattered..."

In fact, this is very understandable, and it is also a very realistic thing. If he does not come back to take charge of the manor, the most likely thing is to sell it. At that time, all the maids, cooks and gardeners in the manor, including the housekeeper Paul, will lose their jobs. .

However, Arthur was leaning lazily on the boss chair at this time, shaking his head and laughing. To be honest, he did not expect to add new discovery items to the manor. It was not as simple as he imagined. I really racked my brains and came up with all kinds of tricks, and even came up with the idea of ​​developing a wild animal park.

"Fame! To make Boleyn Manor popular, the key is fame..."

Arthur, who was talking to himself, turned the boss chair, facing the computer that was already turned on, reached out and shook the mouse, found Word and opened it, tapped the keyboard quickly on the phone, and entered the title of the book - Downton Abbey.

Before the manager of the newspaper and publishing house arrives tomorrow, he must write a few chapters to make this story appear in the newspaper as soon as possible. This is also his first step in packaging and hyping Boleyn Manor.

After that, he will introduce the life of this historic castle manor to people all over the world on the Internet. As long as the publicity is in place, Boleyn Castle will also become a famous tourist attraction.

Although, in Arthur's view, it is not shameful to support his family by selling manor tickets, but he can't just think about making these small money, he still needs to get a sum of money as soon as possible, and make high-cost investments. His biggest advantage is either time travel Back to 10 years ago?

Although he is not a financial genius, an investment tycoon, or a technological elite, but as a web coder who has checked all kinds of information, the information in his memory is enough for him to dominate the world!

You only live once!

You only live once!

Even if he has a brand new life now and can live another ten years, he can't change the reality that he can only live once. He is very lucky to have the opportunity to start again, so naturally he has to live a wonderful life!

"Boom——"

The door of the study room was knocked and it was pushed open. The butler Paul walked in and said to Arthur, who was contemplating typing, "Count, lunch is ready, you can eat now."

"Thank you." Arthur stretched his brows, clicked Save with the mouse, then stood up, moved his body, and smiled.

"Let's go, dinner is ready." While walking outside, he shouted to the three black Labradors who were lying on the sofa and the carpet. The three dogs stood up quickly and followed him step by step. behind.

"By the way, Paul, help me change the chair. The current chair is a bit small for me."

"Okay, I'll arrange someone to change it for you right away." Paul nodded slightly in response, and after closing the door, he quickly walked to the front to lead the way.

Walk along the oak stairs to the hall on the first floor. On the side of the stairs, there is a bracket with a gong fixed on it. The butler Paul walked aside, bent down to pick up a drumstick, and handed it to Arthur respectfully.

Arthur was not stunned or overwhelmed. When he accepted the memory, he saw the scene of the old earl beating the gong. This is a traditional practice to inform everyone to eat. He reached out to take the drumsticks and said to Paul with a smile: "Thank you .”

As he spoke, he struck the gong three times with the drumstick, put down the drumstick, and walked to the restaurant led by the smiling butler Paul.

It is still a large restaurant that can only be described as magnificent. The four walls are covered with exquisite oil paintings. In the middle is a dining table that can accommodate 30 people. Dining chairs are placed on both sides. The center of the dining table is to set off the atmosphere. Silver candlesticks decorated with pink and white roses, the most popular Edwardian style.

Arthur walked to the main seat, and Paul, the housekeeper, helped him pull out the chair. Arthur sat down and thanked him for its maintenance.

Looking at the full tableware on the table in front of me, seeing these, I have to sigh that the conservative tradition adhered to by the Bolling family is really amazing. The castle is always maintained in the best state of order and refinement. Under the strict requirements of high standards, Boleyn Castle has retained the complete dining etiquette of nobles. Of course, all of these are inseparable from the strict management and clear etiquette of the butler.
