Pioneer of the Rebirth Era

The Spencer family is located in the center of London, a certain distance from Buckingham Palace, the Queen's residence next to St. James's Park.

Unlike today's rich people who like to build large manors in the suburbs, the old residences of British aristocrats are basically in the center of London.

It can be said that the city of London actually expanded outward around the residences of the former nobles, just like the royal palace in ancient China was surrounded by the residences of civil and military ministers and the people living in the capital.

Therefore, the old residences of famous and inherited aristocrats in the UK are all located in the city center. This is also one of the differences between new aristocrats and inherited aristocrats.

Of course, there are also many newly minted nobles who buy and live in the old houses of declining nobles to increase their seemingly weak foundation.

It was no use that Del sent someone to pick up his Rolls-Royce, and several large cars arrived in front of the Spencer family's old house. There were actually guards standing in front of the Spencer family's old house, which had always been very low-key in front of the public. This shows that this family

What kind of background and strength lies beneath the low-key appearance.

The iron gate creaked open, which did not make people feel backward. Instead, it was like an unrolled ink painting. When cars filed in, a historical atmosphere spread over the place.

Compared with ancient Chinese wooden buildings, Western castles are basically made of stone. However, the Spencer family did not live in an ancient castle like the European Middle Ages. Although the entire mansion exudes a historical atmosphere, the entire manor does not have the ancient charm.

The castle seemed so heavy.

After several repairs and renovations, it looks a bit splendid. It seems to be a confirmation of the current strength of the Spencer family.

Dale opened the car door and stood to greet her. She also had a noodle haircut but was dressed very formally, unlike the usual decadent playboy-like Auston.

"Welcome to the Spencer family." Alston stretched out his hand and shook Yang Dongxu's hand.

"Thank you for coming out to greet me." Yang Dongxu greeted Auston politely.

Then Yang Dongxu stretched out his hand to greet Dai'er politely, but Dai'er suddenly stepped forward and gave him a kiss. This made the expression at the corner of his mouth stiffen for a moment.

"Stop talking for a while." Dai'er said in Yang Dongxu's ear.

This made the expression on his face pause for a moment.

The housekeeper led the way and the three of them wanted to go inside. Compared to the various European furniture placed in the rich man's house on one side, this old house contained more antiques.

For example, oil paintings on the walls, some sculptures and porcelain on the shelves, etc.

Instead of going to the living room, he walked through the corridor and went directly to the dining room. When he arrived at the restaurant, Yang Dongxu couldn't help but turn his head and glance at Dai'er. When he was at the door, he was still a little confused about Dai'er asking him to talk less.

When I came to the restaurant, I saw not only Dale's father, Wolf, but also a tall, somewhat cold-looking man. As well as a very attractive-looking beauty, the two of them looked at Dai'er and Oskar, who was following behind.

There was a slight resemblance between them, and he instantly guessed their identities.

After all, when cooperating with the Spencer family, he had done some research on the family. Dale's father, Wolf Spencer, was a playboy when he was young.

I have had two wives in total, but before I got married, I already had a son with my girlfriend when I was still in school. And the son with a somewhat stern face in front of me is undoubtedly Dai'er's brother, Di, the eldest son of the Spencer family.

Well, Spencer. And the other one is naturally Dale’s sister, Glen Spencer.

"Hello, I'm Dean Spencer, Auston and Dai'er's brother." Seeing Yang Dongxu come in, Dean stood up politely.

The one who stood up with him was Grant, while Wolf nodded to Yang Dongxu as a greeting.

"Hello, Yang Dongxu, Dai'er's partner." Yang Dongxu smiled and stretched out his hand to shake Dean's hand.

This made Grant, who was standing next to him, smile a little brighter for some reason, and then he also stretched out his hand. "Glen Spencer, Del's sister."

"Yang Dongxu, Dai'er's partner." I don't know if it was an illusion, but Grant only said that she was Dai'er's sister, instead of Auston's seemingly normal words. But Auston next to him

A trace of anger flashed across his face.

"Take a seat. It's a bit rude to invite you all of a sudden, but I have to see you because of what happened before. After all, your cooperation with Dai'er is about to be signed, so as a father, I hope you can understand my concern for his daughter.

"Wolf Spencer said while sitting in the main seat.

"I can understand, after all, what happened before was indeed not that pleasant." Yang Dongxu smiled and nodded to Wolf, indicating that he understood.

Several people began to sit down, Dean and Grant sat on Wolf's left, then Auston and Dai sat on Wolf's right, and Yang Dongxu sat next to Dai.

It seemed like it was just an ordinary family dinner. A father who cared about his daughter wanted to see who his daughter would be working with, so he didn't care about the ranking.

"I heard that Mr. Yang also runs two sports teams?" After sitting down, it was obvious that there was no rule of eating and sleeping at the dinner table. So Ge Lan said to Yang Dongxu with a smile.

When Grant spoke, except for Dean, whether it was Wolf, Auston, or Dai'er who was sitting next to Yang Dongxu, the expressions on their faces did not seem so happy. Even if the expression was not obvious, he still caught it.

.

"Well, we bought two teams before, Renren and Barcelona of La Liga." Yang Dongxu nodded.

"These are two top teams. The 76ers are very likely to win the championship this year. And if your team members do not change much, the chances of achieving continuity in the next few years are also very high. And Barcelona not only swept La Liga and the Champions League, but also

The stars are shining brightly." Grant praised.

"Maybe I'm lucky. Of course, besides luck, I also have a lot of money. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to sell so many stars." Yang Dongxu made a modest joke.

"Indeed, in addition to luck, you also need money. Otherwise, you won't be able to buy so many stars, and even if you buy them, you won't be able to keep them."

"Are you also interested in the team?" Yang Dongxu felt that Grant seemed to be too enthusiastic about him, so he followed her words and asked.

"I'm not interested in the team, but in the stars. I own a luxury brand, Malibu. When I first did an endorsement survey a few days ago, I was very optimistic about the commercial value of the stars in your team, so I gave

I have some suggestions." Grant said.

"That's really a coincidence. I hope there will be a chance to cooperate with you in the future." The smile on Yang Dongxu's face was a little wider, and he seemed to be very interested in cooperating with Ge Lan.

However, the extra smile that just appeared paused for a moment.

"What's wrong?" His attention was always on Yang Dongxu's face, and they were sitting face to face. So Grant captured the subtle changes in the expression on Yang Dongxu's face.

"It's nothing, I just suddenly remembered that when I had dinner with Mr. Roman before, he said he wanted to buy the stars in my hands at any price I wanted." Yang Dongxu prevaricated.

"Mr. Roman is indeed generous in selling stars." Gulen nodded.

"Actually, whether it's the NBA or football, there is a lot of room for improvement in the market. At this time, as long as the performance of the team is not very poor, it should be able to do well." It was Dean who spoke.

Yang Dongxu glanced at Dai'er from the corner of his eye. The stagnant expression on his face just now was because Dai'er stepped on him under the table.

"Indeed, both the NBA and football have developed rapidly in the past two years. For example, the NBA has opened up the Chinese market, and advertising fees and broadcast rights have been increasing rapidly in the past two years.

Serie A is still the world's top football league, and La Liga and the Premier League, which were previously behind Serie A, have quickly caught up in the past two years, which also proves that this industry is booming," Yang Dongxu said.

"The team is indeed a good investment." Wolf, who had been silent, nodded.

Then a few people had some brief talks about the team market, and the dinner was over before they knew it.

After a chat over tea, Wolf politely invited him to stay overnight. Yang Dongxu declined, then got into his car and left.

But as soon as he left the Spencer family's manor, a text message came on his phone. Yang Dongxu motioned to the driver to drive into the side road and stop.

After a while, Dai'er drove her car into the small road, then got out of the car and got into Yang Dongxu's car.

"Is something wrong?" Yang Dongxu looked sideways at Dai'er.

Dai'er said nothing and signaled Yang Dongxu to look at the intersection.

A car passed by the intersection.

"Dean's car." Dale said.

Yang Dongxu didn't wait to continue asking.

Behind Dean was another red sports car.

"Glen's car."

Then there was another silver-gray sports car. Needless to say, this was definitely the car of Del's brother Auston.

"Do you feel anything?" Dai'er looked at him.

Yang Dongxu frowned and said, "The relationship between your family members does not seem to be very friendly."

He felt that Dai'er's family was a bit weird at the dinner table before. When he was talking to Grant, Dai'er stepped on him with her foot.

And he had just left the Spencer Manor, and as a result, the family behaved quite harmoniously at the dinner table, but as soon as the dinner was over, everyone left their home as if they were escaping.

"It doesn't seem like it, but it's really unfriendly." Dai'er said somewhat faintly.

Yang Dongxu couldn't help but glance at her in surprise. It seemed that there was no need to talk to him, an outsider, about such family matters.

"Cooperating with you is very important to me, and I don't want anything to go wrong. Or maybe you change partners in the middle." Dai'er spoke as straightforwardly as ever.

"Change a partner, your sister?" Yang Dongxu couldn't help but ask.

"Or maybe it's my father."

Dai'er's answer made a surprised look appear on Yang Dongxu's face again. He originally thought that Dai'er's family was just a matter of family affection. But as soon as Dai'er said this, it was obvious that it was not just a matter of family affection.

"Although my father is the head of the family, my grandfather just passed away less than two years ago. When my grandfather was alive, his favorite was my eldest brother Dean.

So now most of the Spencer family's property is managed by my eldest brother Dean, not my father." Dai'er revealed another family secret that Yang Dongxu didn't know.
