Less than an hour after William entered the arcade, the news about him appeared on TV, and the on-site reporters of several TV stations not only broadcast the news that William bought the arcade mall in order to accompany Lina shopping,

I don't know if it was intentional or unintentional, but I spent a lot of time introducing the history and present of Burlington Arcade Street for more than 200 years, and I also counted who was the richest in the past, and in the end it was undoubtedly William.

The show ridiculed that the former owner of Arcade Street was probably the most unhappy person in the world, because when interviewing the former owner, he shouted that it was cheap, and if he knew that the buyer was William, he would ask for 100 million pounds.

At 11:30 p.m., Beep C TV specially added a talk show, the content of which was to discuss William's lightning-like purchase of Burlington Arcade Street, whether it was for the main purpose of investment, or simply to accompany his mother to go shopping.

"I think William's main purpose is definitely a commercial one," said Professor Tucci, who was on the floor.

"Anyone who lives in London has probably heard of Burlington Arcade, the oldest and oldest shopping mall in England, nestled between Piccadilly Street and Burlington Gardens.

Although the 112-meter-old street has been in decline over the years, its 200-year-old tradition of selling only luxury goods has made the brand image deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

When old Londoners think of luxury streets, arcades always come to mind at first glance, and at least for people in my 50s, the first thing that comes to mind is arcades.

Even among young people, arcade streets can be ranked in the top three luxury streets, as long as you spend money on redecoration, on the premise of retaining the original sense of history, it is not difficult to modernize the interior and revitalize it.

For William Devon Hill, spending tens of millions of pounds is just an idea, but as long as the renovation is completed, the street will be worth more than 100 million pounds, to say the least.

And there's one issue that you've probably been overlooking."

"What", the moderator asked curiously.

"Arcade covers more than 9,400 square meters, a quarter the size of a football field, and it's only three floors.

How much would it cost a £200 million to rebuild two adjoining high-rises, and don't forget that the mall is located next to Burlington Park, which is less than a two-minute walk away."

"Whoa", the host and the audience were frightened by Tucci's words, "God, that's a good idea, I remember that the current house price in Burlington's west side community is 3,600 pounds per foot, and if it is converted into meters, isn't it 11,000 pounds per square meter?"

"Pretty much, as long as the building is built and worth more than £400 million," Tucci affirmed.

"Can you do that?", Lena and Abigail, who were resting in the mall and waiting for lunch, looked at William sitting next to them in surprise, "Do you really think so?" Lena asked happily.

"No, Mom," William rolled his eyes, "I don't know anything about real estate, the one named Tucci is grandstanding, don't forget that this is a 200-year-old place, and the City of London will let me demolish it.

And I don't lack that money, spend a few years to earn one or two hundred million, it is better to focus on the familiar industry, and the real estate industry is too troublesome.

The first is to give you a safe place to shop in the future, and the second is that this mall is famous and now has a low value, so it is indeed a good investment, and it will definitely be worth more than £400 million in 10 years without doing anything."

"Okay, just don't buy a loss", Lena is very happy that her son is so smart and sensible, "It seems that you are not carried away by a series of successes, which makes my mother happy".

By 3 o'clock in the afternoon, not only did she buy dozens of clothes, five or six pieces of jewelry, and three watches, but Abigail also bought almost half of her things, but surprisingly did not express her dissatisfaction.

At 4 p.m., after five or six hours of shopping, Lena and Abigail walked out of the mall with William in a happy mood.

As soon as they came out, the reporters who had been waiting for almost a day all rushed to William's side like crazy, but Anthony, who had been prepared for a long time, hired more than 40 bodyguards to come and gather in a circle.

couldn't squeeze in, the reporter hurriedly shouted William on the periphery, but unexpectedly found Abigail, who had been following William and Lena, and now his desire to interview William was even stronger, and he asked loudly who Abigail was and if it was his new girlfriend.

William and Lena ignored the reporters, and Abigail, who was next to them, unexpectedly did not make any superfluous moves, neither holding William's hand nor smiling at the reporters, and stayed honestly behind the two.

This made William and Lena, who returned to the manor to see the TV, both happy with Abigail.

During dinner, Lena not only laughed and talked to Abigail, but also surprisingly helped her add some dessert after the meal.

But when she was the only one with William, Lena hesitated and said to William, "Are you sure Abigail and your New York girlfriend won't get into trouble, she is doing very well today, but it also shows that she is too smart, poor my Tina, that little girl must be very sad now."

"God, Mom, can you not mention Tina?" William said, rolling his eyes, "that chick is the most scheming, and I have no plans to get married, who knows what will happen in the future, maybe Abigail and Ambrosio themselves are tired of being with me and leave me."

"Haha, baby, do you believe that yourself?" Lena looked at William with disdain, "You think about these things yourself, good night, child."

"Good night, Mom".

Seeing Lena off, William went into the reception room with a bag, a bottle of Latour red wine, and two glasses, and went downstairs, walked out of the main building, wandered around the garden, and walked to the botanical maze of the manor.

Sitting on a bench in the plant labyrinth, within a minute, a white ghost appeared behind him like a ghost.

"Don't pretend to be a ghost, your ninja stuff is no longer effective in the face of high technology", took out the red wine and wine glass, and poured half a glass, "You have reported your whereabouts to me since you entered the manor on Sunday."

"How do you know if you don't try", the white ghost came out of the shadows, sat next to William and took the wine glass, and took a sip beautifully, "To be honest, I do feel that I am a little outdated recently, and all kinds of technologies that can detect human characteristics are emerging in an endless stream, and no matter how strong the skills are, they really can't compare with the progress of science and technology."

"Don't worry, I'm prepared in this regard, and after talking in a while, I'll give you a combat suit that can shield all existing detection equipment."

"Thank you", the white ghost said a rare thanks, "someone did follow you today."
