After settling Ashley's affairs, John returned to his study and did not go to the dining room until noon, when the Grand Elder suddenly arrived.

"You're here?"

Old Morgan was a little surprised to see Henry Sturgis Morgan, the parliament building was only a few hundred meters away from the main building, but the Grand Elder rarely came to the main building.

"I'll have someone prepare lunch for you. Mrs. Morgan beckoned to the servant.

"No, I've eaten. Henry Sturgis Morgan waved his hand to stop it, then looked at old Morgan and Mrs. Morgan and said, "I came to look for you for something, you eat first, and then you are talking." ”

"We're all pretty much finished, let's go to the living room together. "Old Morgan knew that everyone hadn't eaten well, but it was impossible to let his uncle wait on the side at this time, so he simply didn't eat, and when he was done, he just had to make up for afternoon tea.

After the maid brought snacks and coffee and left, Henry Sturgis Morgan looked at old Morgan and smiled, and said, "I heard that John is going to build an art maintenance center over there in the staff housing area?"

It is impossible to hide this kind of thing from the Great Elder, in fact, since John gave the order and Dani conveyed the order to the council building, the staff of the entire manor were talking about it, so the Great Elder naturally knew about it.

"Yes, what's wrong?" John thought for a moment and realized that he didn't seem to be breaking family law.

"What's going on?" said Mrs. Morgan, looking at Henry Sturgis Morgan with concern.

"No, you misunderstood, nothing happened. The Great Elder waved his hand and explained: "That's the case, everyone heard that John is going to build a maintenance center, so they asked me to ask if I can build an art building in the manor to display some family artworks, so that the people of the manor can increase some artistic accomplishments, but also show the heritage of our Morgan family, and everyone can have one more leisure time." ”

"Oh, I see. Old Morgan nodded: "Since it is everyone's opinion, then build one, and enrich everyone's life after work, but the construction of art buildings in the core area must be cautious, and the overall style of the area cannot be damaged." ”

"It's a must. Henry Sturgis Morgan nodded solemnly: " And I think that since the manor is going to build an art building, then simply take this opportunity to add a reception building, usually the guests in the manor live in the main building, I don't think it's good, especially when it comes to a big party, there are hundreds of people staying overnight, so many people live in the main building at once for your safety There is a big hidden danger, and there are too many family secrets in the main building, we can't guarantee that everyone who enters the manor is loyal, so simply build a reception building, and all the guests who need to stay overnight will live in the reception building, so as to eliminate security loopholes, and avoid disturbing your rest and office。 ”

"Okay, just do as you say, and the government affairs will be specifically responsible for this matter, and the Council of Elders will be responsible for overseeing it. Morgan Sr. nodded and agreed to Henry Sturgis Morgan's proposal. He actually had this idea a long time ago, but he forgot about it as soon as there were many things, and since Henry Sturgis Morgan mentioned it today, let's solve it together.

The Morgan family is building a new building!

Not long after Henry Sturgis Morgan returned to the parliament building, the whole manor knew about the manor's building to be repaired, and everyone was happily discussing.

"We haven't built a building on our estate for more than 80 years, and it's really a celebration to build two of them at once. ”

"Yes, yes, I heard that the last building built in the manor was the Grand Theater, and when the third generation of Mrs. Morgan married into our Morgan family, the patriarch at that time knew that she liked to watch plays, so he specially repaired it. ”

"Yes, but I don't like drama too much, I haven't been there a few times, I still prefer to look at art in my spare time, I heard that the art in the manor's vault is piled up as high as a mountain, all collected by successive patriarchs from all over the world. ”

"It's as tall as a mountain, it's only four or five meters high, but it's the size of five football fields. ”

"You know that?"

"Huh...... My next-door neighbor was the underground vault guard, and he was talking to me over a drink. ”

"Oh....... Let's get off work in the evening and ask your neighbor to have a drink with him, and then let him talk about the vault. ”

"Go together, go together. ”

Just as the staff of the manor and the members of the family gathered in groups of five to gossip, in the large conference room on the fifth floor on the right side of the council building, Henry Sturgis Morgan and the presbyterian council held a meeting on the construction of the building.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the patriarch has agreed to build an art building and a reception building, the specific matters are led by the Government Council, and the Council of Elders is responsible for supervising it. "The Great Elder, as the moderator of the meeting, sat on the chair and closed his eyes to recuperate, he was too old to participate in the discussion all the time, so he started and let everyone discuss, discuss the results, and finally make a decision.

The construction of the Morgan Manor building is not as simple as ordinary people building houses, this kind of meeting will take at least a month to achieve results, from geographical location, security, to procurement, audit, this large and small links must be discussed one by one to come up with a plan.

For example, the safety issue, the buildings built by the Morgan family are all classical style, and the construction of a classical style house requires a lot of manpower to slowly and meticulously craft, in the past, it took at least tens of thousands of people to build such a classical style building, and now the science and technology are developed, which can save a lot of manpower and time costs, but at least three or four thousand people are needed, and it takes seven or eight thousand people to build two buildings at the same time, so many people of all kinds come to the manor, not to mention eating, drinking, Lazar and sleeping, safety alone is a big challenge, and if you are not careful, it is very likely that disasters will occur。

So the security issue alone is enough for these people to discuss it for a week.

And when all the problems are discussed, it is not over, in fact, this is just the beginning, the problem is discussed and then the architectural designer is invited to produce drawings, Morgan family will not invite an architectural designer, then the best designers in the world will receive an invitation, everyone comes up with a design plan, and then everyone discusses the most suitable one from the many design schemes, anyway, it is impossible to complete this step without a year and a half.

It will take at least a year and a half to really break ground.

That's why Deni says it's hard to build a house on the estate.
