v3 Chapter 1081: Good things come in pairs

Xia Yu and Elena did not fly directly to London, but to Norfolk in northeastern England.

The destination is self-evident, of course the Howard family castle.

Elena wanted to go back home to fetch some things, and Xia Yu also had to drive away his convoy that had stayed in Castle Howard.

When Xia Yu and Elena arrived, it was almost noon, and Duke Carter Howard happened to be home.

Because he had already contacted by phone beforehand, Duke Carter Howard had already prepared for lunch and prepared the dishes his daughter loves to eat.

During the rest time after lunch, Duke Carter Howard actively asked about Xia Yu's gains.

"Mr. Xia, have you bought the castle?"

Xia Yu smiled and nodded, not only answering questions, but also taking the initiative to introduce.

"Yes, I bought Block Castle in Glasgow. I heard that it originally belonged to the Earl of Block Family. The area of ​​this castle is much smaller than Castle Howard. It is only 1.35 acres. Six hundred and twenty acres of forests, meadows and lakes."

"I actually watched six castles, but I still liked this one better, and it ended up costing £4.5 million."

Carter Howard showed a clear look and said with a smile: "I know which castle you are talking about. Brock Castle is considered a superior castle even in Scotland, which is known as the'castle kingdom'. Although the land of Scotland is more Cheap, but with 620 acres of land, you only spent 4.5 million pounds, not too expensive, Sir Ian Campbell is very kind."

"Moreover, it is located in Glasgow, and the transportation is very convenient. Whether it is for life or work, the conditions are very good."

Duke Carter Howard raised his doubts: "However, don't you spend most of your time in England? You bought a castle in Scotland and didn't use it for long after a year?"

Of course, Xia Yu couldn’t say that it was mainly for his daughter Elena. He explained: “I rarely go to Scotland now, but I will always go there in the future. I just talked about the castle the day before yesterday, and realized that he did not live in Scotland. Place, so I just bought a castle, anyway, the price is not expensive."

"If there is a suitable castle in England, I will buy it too."

Xia Yu said this sentence casually, never thinking about Carter Howard but taking it seriously.

He put down the cup and contemplated.

Xia Yu and Elena looked at each other, and doubts flashed in their eyes.

After a while, Duke Carter Howard said to Xia Yu: "Mr. Xia, if you want to buy a castle in England, I have a good recommendation."

Xia Yu came to be interested, and he asked in surprise: "Sir Carter, which castle can you think is good?"

Duke Carter Howard said with a faint smile: "It's Warwick Castle."

"Warwick Castle?"

Xia Yu frowned slightly, he felt familiar, but he couldn't remember the specific impression.

Seeing Xia Yu's troubles, Duke Carter Howard gave Xia Yu an intimate introduction.

"You know from the name that Warwick Castle is in Warwickshire. This castle was built in the 11th century and is one of the oldest castles in England. It is even comparable to Windsor Castle in history. Of course, Warwick Rick Castle is much smaller than Windsor Castle."

"Warwick Castle has a very glorious history. A total of forty-two earls lived there. This castle has changed many owners, and it has fallen to the Beaumont family, the Beauchamp family, the Neville family, In the hands of the Gorse family, the Dudley family and the Greville family, they have belonged to the Greville family for more than two centuries."

"However, because the Greville family fell, the castle was sold to the Cavendish family in 1978, and now it is in the hands of the Cavendish family’s Pearson Group’s Tussauds Group. Tussauds Group plans to sell Warwick The castle has been transformed into a tourist attraction. It is still being renovated and has not yet opened. If you want to buy it, you must contact Duke Porter Philip Cavendish as soon as possible."

After hearing Duke Carter Howard’s detailed explanation, Xia Yu finally remembered.

The Warwick Castle he was talking about, also known as Warwick Castle in later generations, was indeed run by the Tussauds Group, which was the company that operated Madame Tussauds.

This castle is indeed a top-notch castle, much more advanced than the Block Castle he bought in Scotland.

Not only in England, even if enlarged to the entire Great Britain, they are considered top castles, not inferior to Howard Castle of the Howard family.

"Mr. Xia, what do you think of this castle?"

Xia Yu smiled humorously: "It's a pity to take this castle for sightseeing."

Duke Carter Howard was taken aback, then laughed: "Do you need my help?"

Xia Yu did not refuse. Although he had just played golf with Duke Porter Philip Cavendish a week ago, he is still inferior to Duke Carter Howard in terms of intimacy.

Since Duke Carter Howard is so enthusiastic, he has no reason to refuse, and it doesn't matter if he owes him more favors.

Anyway, the future is a family, so it is not very trivial to distinguish what to do.

He said gratefully, "Sir Carter, if you can, I'll trouble you."

Duke Carter Howard didn't know what Xia Yu was thinking. If he knew it, he would never give Xia Yu a face.

Of course, he was destined to not know what Xia Yu was thinking.

Duke Carter Howard said nonchalantly: "No trouble, he should give me the face, but I will tell him that it is for you to buy it, and it would be better for you to talk to him after the acquisition."

Xia Yu smiled and nodded, "Okay! I will thank him then!"

After chatting for a while, Xia Yu said goodbye when seeing that it was too early.

Duke Carter Howard did not stay and watched Xia Yu's motorcade drive away from Castle Howard.

...

Running all the way, Xia Yu's physique is considered to be able to withstand, but Elena, a weak girl, feels physically and mentally exhausted.

After returning home to rest for a good night, Xia Yu drove to the Guangming Fund headquarters in the City of London the next morning.

He had just come to the office to sit down, and Elton Colin, who was arranged by him to buy Chelsea, knocked on the door of his office.

On the way to the company, Xia Yu has already learned the general situation through the newspaperThe news of the change of Chelsea Football Club and Stamford Bridge Stadium has spread all over the United Kingdom. Readers know that the buyer is the Bright Fund. But the Bright Fund did not stand up to explain, so there is no specific insider newspaper.

"Elton, I already know the general situation, thanks for your hard work!"

"Your work efficiency is very high!"

It took exactly half a month from receiving the task on November 6 to the successful completion of the task on November 21 yesterday. This efficiency is indeed worthy of Xia Yu’s praise.

"Boss, no hard work! This is what I should do!" Elton Colin was delighted in his heart, but said very modestly on the surface.

"This is a detailed acquisition, including the equity documents of Chelsea Football Club and Stamford Bridge Assets. At the bottom is a list of all British players and coaches collected, and a simple analysis report."

While talking, Elton Colin put the thick stack of documents in his hand on Xia Yu's desk and gently pushed it in front of Xia Yu.

Xia Yu raised his brows and looked at Elton Colin in surprise and asked: "In such a short time, the situation of the players and the coach has been investigated?"

Elton Colin nodded and explained: "Yes, the reason why it is so fast is mainly because the "Sports Life" newspaper under the Mirror Group has a very detailed database for the football field. I have mobilized the "Sports Life" newspaper. Life" newspaper resources."

Xia Yu understood, the accident in his heart was gone, he smiled and admired: "A good way."

After speaking, he looked down and read it.
