Rebirth of England

Chapter 92 The background of the nobles

When Barron returned to the hotel room after meeting Cameron, he saw that Chris had gotten up and was sitting in front of the makeup mirror combing her hair.

"Do you need my help, ma'am?"

Barron walked over with a smile and said in a deliberately flirtatious tone.

But what greeted him was an elegant...eye roll from the Viscountess.

"I told you not to be so rough every time, Barron!"

Seemingly still a little angry, Chris opened the hand that Barron extended:

"My clothes are torn. If this keeps happening, I won't see you again."

"Don't be angry, honey, I'll ask someone to buy you some later..."

Barron looked at the pieces of cloth in the trash can that had been thrown into it by the Viscountess...especially the pieces of stockings and the small purple hollow piece of cloth...

Such a scene was captured by Barron, and his eyes couldn't help but fall on the Viscountess - so to speak, she doesn't have...

"Hurry up, I'm going to go back and clean up. Ian will be back tomorrow."

Viscount Bute went back to his family in Scotland for business in the past two days, but Chris was not with him, which gave Barron the opportunity to deepen his "friendship" with her.

Now hearing what the Viscountess said, Barron had a smile on his face:

"If that's the case, then let's cherish our time today..."

"You, why do you still have to...don't tear it apart!"

Amidst the Viscountess's exclamation, she only heard a "hiss" in the room, and then...

At this time, less than a hundred meters away from the Devonshire luxury hotel, there was a store facing the street that was being renovated.

The building of this store also has the style of the Vilorian period, and its signboard - DuchySelected Market - has been hung on the bright glass door at the entrance.

This Duke's Selection supermarket will be the first high-end supermarket owned by Devonshire Ecological Agriculture.

DuchySelected Market (DSM) specializes in natural and organic foods. The most important products are pure products produced from the ecological farms of Devonshire Ecological Agriculture Company and its affiliated factories. Natural organic food.

In addition, some other brands of products will be screened based on extremely strict standards to meet more customer needs.

DSM's positioning is to serve high-end customers, so the first store was chosen in the wealthy area of ​​Chelsea. Next, it will open new stores throughout London, including wealthy areas such as Kensington and Mayfair. storefront.

The person in charge of DSM is Corian Hawke, who they specially hired from Waitrose Company, who has many years of experience in high-end supermarket operations - this supermarket chain is a well-known high-end brand in England and has been supplying to the royal family before.

According to the latest survey data, the United States has the largest and most mature organic product market in the world.

The United States accounts for 40% of the global organic market, Germany accounts for 14%, France accounts for 8%, and the United Kingdom only accounts for 4%, which is about the same as Switzerland...

In the future, people in developed countries around the world, especially high-end customers with higher spending power, will pay more and more attention to natural and organic food. This will also be a market with great development potential.

Therefore, with Devonshire Ecological Agriculture Company, Barron decided to enter the field of high-end food supermarkets and at the same time provide sales terminals for his ecological and organic farms to obtain higher profits.

"Duke's Selection" is DSM's own brand, which will pursue the highest quality and ensure a high-end image.

At the same time, in terms of DSM’s shareholding, Devonshire Ecological Agriculture Company holds 60% of the shares and is responsible for the daily operations of the supermarket and the supply of products; DS Asset Management invested 15 million pounds and holds 40% of its shares.

These funds will be used to open new DSM stores and build a constant-temperature logistics warehouse in London to provide warehousing and distribution for DSM stores in London.

It is also worth mentioning that DSM is a membership-based high-end supermarket. The current first store in Chelsea will provide home delivery services to member customers with just a phone call.

Of course, it is mainly delivered to Chelsea. If you are in other areas, it is not impossible, but the cost of delivery is very high - often this is not a big deal for those rich people. question.

"In up to two weeks, our Devonshire Hotel will be open for business. At that time, the Cavendish Hotel in Soho will be vacant. According to your arrangements, it will be demolished and a 35-meter-high hotel will be built on the site. The construction period of the 6-story Cavendish Tower is expected to be 6-7 months. After completion, we will use 15 of the floors to open the new four-star Cavendish Hotel."

Cavendish Hotel Group general manager Rob Pike briefed Barron on the hotel group's plans.

The land on which the Cavendish Hotel in Soho is located has been purchased by DS Asset Management, and a new building will be built on the original site after the hotel building is demolished.

In addition to the Devonshire luxury hotel, two new Cavendish hotels will open in Soho and King's Cross over the next two years.

But apart from that, Cavendish Hotel Group will continue to make other moves...

"After the opening of the Devonshire Hotel, our most important task is to renovate Callan Castle in the Scottish Highlands and build it into a castle hotel that will be open to tourists."

In addition to Chatsworth, the Devonshire family also owns two other castles and manors, located in Scotland and Ireland.

The ancient castle in Scotland is Callan Castle. It is located on the edge of a cliff in the Scottish Highlands. The scenery is very magnificent.

It's just that because the Devonshire family didn't pay much attention to it before, Callan Castle has only been maintained as a residence for the family to visit Scotland occasionally.

Now Barron is preparing to develop the place. Callan Castle has a completely different scenery from Chatsworth Manor. The most important thing is that Callan Castle is very close to the city. From the castle, you can overlook the surrounding countryside. The city of Karan is therefore very suitable for tourism and hotel industry.

It is precisely because of this that the Cavendish Hotel Group is preparing to use the funds obtained from selling the real estate in Soho to DS Capital to rent part of Callan Castle from the Chatsworth Charitable Trust and develop the overall It was restored and developed into a stylish hotel - Devonshire Castle Hotel.

What can be said to be the most valuable thing about a noble family, especially a ducal family?

It is not their industries and properties, but the historical heritage owned by this aristocratic family - with these, it will naturally become an extremely high-end brand. These centuries-long aristocratic history itself is the favorite story of those customers. !

Of course, the premise is that you need to have enough funds to promote it so that everyone will accept your stories and pay for them.
