Rolls-Royce was behind, Benjamin's car was in front, and the two cars were heading towards the city hall, and at this time, there were already a lot of media at the press conference in the city hall, after all, it was a big news from the city government.
After getting out of the car, everyone walked forward together, "Ben, change the car, don't consider it if it's less than 100,000, count it on me, you must know that you are my full-time lawyer, driving this kind of car will make people feel that I am abusing employees" Guo Yongren said with a smile, and Benjamin also smiled.
"Boss, since you came to London this time, I've been waiting for this sentence, I'll pick up the car in the afternoon, I've already seen it" Benjamin said with a smile, Guo Yongren also smiled, raised his fist, and punched Benjamin, Arthurina looked inexplicable, things between men, women are difficult to understand.
Guo Yongren and they took a special passage, and after coming in, they met Burton, and Burton was also amazed by today's Guo Yongren and Arthurina, Arthurina is naturally without makeup, and she becomes charming when she cleans up a little, coupled with the duke halo on her head, it simply kills the hearts of all kinds of men.
"Mr. Burton, this is my girlfriend, Duke Atherina"
"Arthurina, this is my friend Congressman Burton" Guo Yongren made an introduction to the two, Burton was taken aback when he heard Arthurina's title, knowing that Guo Yongren would not be joking, he shook hands with Arthurina amicably, and secretly gave Guo Yongren a thumbs up, and both of them laughed.
In order to have a good effect today, Guo Yongren specially found a more famous charity, the Labor Mutual Aid Charity Fund, the person in charge of Alvin, also came, today Guo Yongren will donate one million pounds to the foundation to improve the effect, Burton of course will not object, knowing that Guo Yongren will mention himself at that time, which is beneficial to himself.
When the time came, the reporters asked, and the press officer of the city government also appeared, "Everyone, welcome to everyone, today we will hold a signing ceremony here, the umbrella group and the city government have purchased a piece of land, invest 200 million pounds, to build a global landmark building, the next is to invite the representative of the city government, Burton Councillor, the chairman of the umbrella group, Mr. Guo Yongren is in place" After the spokesman finished speaking, he sat behind and made a gesture of please.
Burton in front, Guo Yongren in the back, Arthurina held Guo Yongren's arm, and the three of them went on stage, and the reporters in the audience began to take pictures, especially to Arthurina, and they kept taking pictures.
Guo Yongren and Burton both made a sign, and the spokesman pushed it back at this time, knowing in his heart that today is the day of Burton and the umbrella group, and it is better not to take the lead.
The reporters in the audience began to raise their arms to ask questions, but Burton took the microphone, "Everyone, I will tell you a few things, and I will set aside special time for you to ask questions" Burton said, and the reporters below were quiet.
Burton began to speak, which was very infectious, introducing the before and after of this signing, and at the same time, he also told his campaign philosophy, without the slightest sense of disobedience, and he still had two brushes.
Burton finished speaking, it was Guo Yongren's turn, "Everyone, thank you for coming today, I am very honored, the umbrella group will make a large-scale investment in the UK, therefore, a modern office building is very needed, my need has been helped by Burton Councillor, coordinated with the city government, umbrella will build a global landmark building on this land, today, I take your help here to think that the global designer to send an invitation call is ........." Guo Yongren announced the first thing, and many people made notes.
"The second thing I want to announce is related to the Burton Councillor, who is very concerned with the lives of the workers, and knows the difficulties of the workers' lives, I am very touched, and his love for the workers touches me, and I will donate a million pounds to the Husband's Mutual Aid Charity Fund to help those in need," said Kwok with deep affection.
The following remembered the warm applause, people who are willing to do charity are still very respected by people these years, the head of the Labor Mutual Aid Charity Fund on the stage, Alvin, Guo Yongren took out a check for one million pounds from his arms and handed it to Alvin himself, Alvin can be said to be a celebrity, basically these reporters know.
Alvin also delivered a speech, thanking Burton and Guo Yongren of the Umbrella Group, thanking them for their concern for the plight of laborers, and stepping down after thanking them, and now it is time to ask questions freely.
"Excuse me, who is this beautiful young lady" A young reporter asked, Guo Yongren and Burton both smiled bitterly, they were really afraid of something, Arthurina was so eye-catching, it was really a wrong choice to bring her over today.
Guo Yongren thought about it, let's tell the truth, anyway, these reporters have great powers, and they can find out if they don't say it, so it's better to tell the truth yourself.
"This is Duke Aserina, my friend" Guo Yongren introduced Aserina to everyone, as soon as they heard the identity of Aserina, these reporters were as excited as chicken blood one by one, and found eye-catching news, you know, Arthurina just held Guo Yongren to the stage.
"May I ask what is the relationship between Mr. Guo and our Duke," a reporter immediately asked, Guo Yongren's head was big for a while.
"This is a secret" Guo Yongren said with a smile, the reporters don't care about Guo Yongren's answer, as long as you are together, then the secret is not a secret at all, we will make up a love story for you.
Guo Yongren smiled bitterly, turned his head to look at Burton, the two of them saw each other's regrets, but there was no way, it was already like this, they could only go on, the best way was to end it early.
"Thank you all for coming" Guo Yongren said, and left directly with Acerina, Burton looked at the reporters below, I don't know how many of their words they remember, I hope they can remember a little more, it's a bit noisy today.
Guo Yongren and Benjamin came to the car all the way, breathed a sigh of relief, turned their heads to look at Arthurina, and felt a little apologetic in their hearts, "Arthurina, I ..... just now" Guo Yongren just said this, Arthurina kissed him directly, not letting Guo Yongren continue.
"I understand" Aserina said very considerately, Guo Yongren felt Aserina's love and hugged Aserina hard, Guo Yongren still underestimated the strength of the London reporters, just now the two kissed and hugged The picture was taken by the reporters, and it was not alone, and there was a headache for Guo Yongren later.
After saying hello to Benjamin, the two got in the car, and instead of returning to Victory Manor, they went directly to Arthurina's house, which was still in ruins, and it was time to tidy it up.
The two got off the car in the manor, and did not go to the villa, but walked around, a dilapidated, many places are full of barren grass, the trees are uneven, the original racecourse and so on have been dilapidated, and the maid's building is also a very old-fashioned one, it can be said that it is the same as Guo Yongren who just took over the Victory Manor, basically needs to be repaired.
Back in the living room, Guo Yongren called Ryan over, "Ryan, the manor needs to be repaired, especially the workers' building needs to be pushed to rebuild, do you know what to do?" Guo Yongren asked.
"Yes, gentlemen" Ryan replied respectfully, he had already learned Guo Yongren's methods that day, and he also knew that the reason why this manor existed was because Guo Yongren returned the bank's arrears for Arthurina, otherwise, it would have ceased to exist a long time ago.
"How much money is needed," Guo Yongren asked directly.
"Sir, it will take at least three million pounds to repair the workers' building, the garden and the road," Ryan said cautiously, Guo Yongren nodded, knowing in his heart that this amount was not enough.
took out the checkbook from his arms, wrote a check and handed it to Ryan, "This is five million pounds, let's start construction tomorrow, I will send you a few security personnel to come over, and the workers can temporarily live in the guest rooms on the second floor, but they are not allowed to enter above the second floor, you have to explain this to them, or directly seal the stairs leading to the third floor for me, and then unseal it when I turn around, where will Arthurina live for the time being" Guo Yongren said directly.
"Yes sir, I'll arrange it at once," Ryan said happily, the Duke's Palace was about to be renewed, and it was a thing to be happy about.
"Aserina, you go up and tidy up your clothes, where do you live with me temporarily" Guo Yongren said, Aserina nodded, and went upstairs to prepare.
Guo Yongren went to call and find Buck from the security company, although the people from the security company are not available for the time being, but it is still possible to temporarily dispatch a few over, and the phone will be connected quickly, "Hello, I'm Buck" Buck's voice came.
"Buck, do you write down the address,.......... Send five security personnel here, temporarily take charge of the security here, and wait for the housekeeper here's orders" Guo Yongren said directly, his voice Buck should be able to hear it.
"Okay boss, no problem, tomorrow they will be at the designated location" Buck said directly, Guo Yongren nodded, said a few words to Buck and hung up the phone.
It didn't take long for Arthurina to go downstairs with a bag, and Ryan also came over, there were only three servants in the house, and they were all young, Guo Yongren looked at it and shook his head.
"Ryan, they are not young anymore, those who should retire can retire early, don't treat them badly, after all, they grew up watching Arthurina, in addition, tomorrow, the security personnel will come over and ask them to help you seal the passage from the second floor to the third floor, you arrange their work and rest time, and the repair of the manor will be handed over to you" Guo Yongren said to Ryan, Ryan nodded, and wrote it down.
