Chapter 1461

The new year is coming.

Rockefeller central square is also covered with flowers.

People are jubilant walking on the street, shopping for new year's supplies.

It's just that Li Zitao's family is no longer in the apartment. They decide to spend the winter in the warmer south.

It was also before the beginning of the journey that Li Zitao realized that Laomei also had a cellar.

Most southerners have cellars in their homes, but they prefer to call them underground storage rooms.

"Ah ~"

looking at the tall and powerful oak trees on both sides of the road, like a tall, burly, eternal guard giant, Mary gave a happy cry.

She hasn't felt so comfortable for a long time, and this decision is undoubtedly the right one.

This time, they went to New Orleans for a holiday. In addition to the weather and environmental factors, they also came to see the new manor.

Oak manor, located 17 kilometers away from New Orleans, is the site of the popular "gone with the wind" in the United States.

Oak manor has a glorious history, which has been passed down for four generations.

From the owner of the first sugarcane plantation to taking over the land from his brother-in-law, he built this solemn and unique luxury manor.

Later, he died early because of illness, and his wife was not good at management, so the manor was heavily in debt.

It was not easy to wait for a capable and ambitious airport man, but the civil war began.

The young heir was forced to go to war, and when the war was over, he lost everything, except the manor, which was almost robbed by runaway slaves.

Knowing that his mother and sister had both died at the hands of slaves and suffered humiliation before their death, he could no longer bear the blow and was never recovered.

The family died miserably, the greatest wealth, slaves and plantations ran, destroyed and destroyed, their own pain and suffering.

Helpless, can only take out the manor auction.

Twenty five years later, a couple took over the estate and built it as a landscape.

The huge renovation, the introduction of modern kitchen and water pumping system, seems to be the same as before, the manor actually had a major operation.

Originally, it was very difficult for Li Zitao to buy this manor again.

Unfortunately, the couple had no children.

They had planned to set up a non-profit foundation and leave the estate to the foundation.

During this period, the two met Mary, and she was very interested in the manor in gone with the wind.

Finally, the two sides reached an agreement on the purchase of the manor by Mary.

And they can spend their comfortable old age with the money and do whatever they want.

If they still want to set up a foundation and devote themselves to charity, Mary will be happy to help them.

"These oaks are so beautiful. They have been around for more than two centuries."

Standing under the huge old oak tree, Mary looked up and said, "I can't imagine how surprised the owner who planted them would have seen it!"

"More than 200 years, not long." "If you like, we can plant some more," Li said quietly

"In the next century, people will sigh for it."

Speaking of this, Li Zitao suddenly remembered a joke. Burying an Ultraman in the soil will become a century problem for archaeologists all over the world.

"These old oaks are rare. Don't destroy them." Mary said angrily.

"All right." Since she said so, Li Zitao was no longer reluctant.

Along the concrete road in the middle, hidden among the oak trees and shrubs, the slave house, the prison room and the punishment room full of torture tools are looming.

These wooden buildings in the shadow of the trees flicker, giving a gloomy sense of darkness.

Li Zitao pointed to the rooms and said, "take them all down, and clean up and trim the grass and shrubs."

"In addition, the former horse Si carries on the repair transformation, will use in the future." Living in the South with rich rural flavor, it would be boring without galloping.

Soon, the manor house appeared at the end of the road.

It is a three story building with European style. It is surrounded by more than 20 Greek style pillars, elegant and solemn.

Open the door and walk into the room. The layout is luxurious and elegant. You can see the clean grass through the rear window, at least a thousand hectares.

It's about 30000 square meters. Whatever you want to do here is enough.

At the end is a thick forest, beyond the forest is the enclosure of the manor.

Over the fence is the road, on the other side is the dam, standing on the top of the Mississippi River can see the numerous shipyards and docks.

In the room, Li Zitao and his family have visited all the rooms in the whole house.

The pictures of the family members who built the manor in the corridor have been collected by the servants.Under Dan's command, they are getting familiar with the environment here in order to get into their own jobs as soon as possible.

Since arriving at the manor, pearl has been running with excitement.

Eden followed her, running around the yard with her.

For pearl, who has rarely left the reinforced concrete city since his memory, everything here is full of fun.

At this time, she was staring at the ant nest on the ground without blinking.

She had been in this position for half an hour, and there was no sense of boredom.

It was not until the servants were familiar with the environment and prepared dinner that she was called away by her mother. She was reluctant to part with her step by step. It was very interesting.

"Will we all live here in the future?" During the meal, pearl looked up at Eden with big, crystal eyes full of anticipation.

Eden, who had no resistance to her sister's lovely appearance, could only throw the problem to others.

"You should ask your father about that." When Eden said that, pearl turned to him.

Aidan, who successfully tossed the pot, was relieved and gloated at Li Zitao, waiting for his answer.

"We'll stay here for a while, and you'll have enough time to get to know it."

"I don't want to go back at all." In just half a day, pearl has fallen in love with this relaxed and leisure country life.

In fact, it is also the case that leisure and quiet rural life can always make people forget to go back.

In particular, all the basic necessities of life are taken care of by a specially assigned person, so there is no need to worry about life.

The progress of the transformation of the manor was very fast, but it was pushed to a few wooden houses, and the messy things inside were counted and discarded.

Ma Si in the back got the carpenter from the town and mounted it again according to the style Mary wanted.

After a whole afternoon, the transformation of the manor was temporarily ended.

As for other aspects of the renovation, it will not start until they leave after their vacation.

Li Zitao wants to replace all the floors here, so he uses the calfskin floor in his study in New York apartment.

Sound insulation, vibration reduction, soft and comfortable, lying in

Cough, it's very comfortable to walk on it.
