Chapter 906: Brother Huanxi has another year-old friend

This is the first time our brother Huanxi has been alone with Stephen.

This old man is in good spirits and in good health. Although the hair is gray, it is meticulously combed. Although the clothes on the body are not new, the cutting, the handiwork, there is nothing to say.

Especially the old man's pure Chinese, his conversation is funny and humorous, and the comparison with him and Gomez is simply two worlds, and it is not boring at all.

Brother Huanxi wondered, why did Stephen and Gomez both speak Chinese and speak so well?

Could it be that this family has been speaking Chinese since birth?

Especially Stephen's face, you say he's European, yes, but you want to say he's Oriental, it looks like it.

Brother Huanxi has never encountered such a strange thing.

"Your Excellency, Mr. Ray, please have tea. ”

At this time, Gomez brought tea.

"Lao Si, are you really a baron?" Brother Huanxi remembered that when he was in Miami, some people called Stephen a baron.

The name "Old Si" made Stephen stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "How can I say it? My grandfather was a baron, my father was a baron, and I later became a baron, but I don't know how this baron came about." ”

"Wait, wait. Brother Huanxi was confused when he heard it: "You don't know either?"

Isn't that nonsense?

It is true that there are still many aristocrats in Europe, such as England. Their titles of nobility were either inherited or bought with money.

Of course, not everyone with a title of nobility is so honorable.

In the United Kingdom, for example, many heirs to titles of nobility are also part-time workers.

Well, that's pretty much it, with the title of Lord Viscount, I did something wrong when I went to work. Your boss doesn't care who you are, and he just reprimands you. If you can't just roll up and leave, it doesn't matter what kind of aristocrat you are?

And that's not even the saddest.

Sadly, the descendants of the nobility, the heirs of such and such an ancient castle estate, they inherited these ancient castle estates without paying taxes, but they needed to maintain them.

It is a mandatory rule of the government that the castle manor must be kept in its original appearance. This is tantamount to handing over the task of protecting monuments to private individuals.

The maintenance fee is often huge, so what should these heirs do? First, open part of the castle manor for tourists to take pictures or visit for a fee.

Isn't the cost enough?

All the money I earned from my part-time job was thrown into it.

Although these people are doing quite badly, at least they know where they inherited their titles of nobility, but this Stephen doesn't know where the title of baron came from?

Is this a joke with your family Brother Huanxi?

"Really. Stephen said very seriously: "My family is an old family, but it has no history. ”

Brother Huanxi just took a sip of tea and almost squirted out when he heard this.

My family is an old family, but there is no history?

An ancient family with no history?

To whom will anyone believe it?

"No one knows when my family appeared, and no one knows the origin of this family. Stephen smiled wryly and said:

"We have hired the most famous historians in Europe to examine the family. But the research of ten historians has ten completely different answers. Some people say that our family is less than a hundred years old, and some people say that our family has actually existed since ancient Roman times. My little friend, who would you believe in such a situation?"

Brother Huanxi doesn't believe anyone's words!

This is so special to make your family happy brother believe in whom!

"But our family, like me. Stephen didn't hide it at all: "Every baron has inherited a lot of things since birth, such as great wealth and power, and God knows where these hellish things come from." ”

Brother Huanxi swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

Could you please give me a little bit of the "" stuff you said?

These "hell" things are what countless people are eager to see.

"So you ask me where my barony came from, I don't know. Where my wealth came from, I don't know. Even where did this hotel come from? I don't know. ”

Brother Huanxi's eyes widened: "This tourist, this hotel is also yours?"

"It's mine. Stephen nodded: "Anyway, my family owns all of its indisputable deeds, and the South African government has recognized it as private property." It is also included in the category of protection that cannot be destroyed without permission. ”

Brother Huanxi touched his head: "Lao Si, such an old hotel, forget it, how good is it to build a new one?"

"Old, demolished?" Stephen pointed around him, "Do you know how many years this inn has existed? It has been around since the British merged the Cape, Transvaal, Natal and Orange Free State into the Union of South Africa in 1910 as a British Dominion. It has witnessed the development of Cape Town. It bears witness to a piece of history. ”

Okay, okay, it's not interesting to talk about this, your brother Huanxi doesn't understand these histories.

"That's right, old Si. What kind of baron are you?" Brother Huanxi suddenly thought of this question: "Isn't every nobleman a title?"

Stephen didn't answer the question, but stood up and walked to the window: "You see, from here, you can see the sea, so I come here every year to stay for a while, calm my mind." ”

Brother Huanxi also came to the window to see, he can indeed see the sea, but what is there to see once a year?

"By the way, what did you just call me?"

"Old Si. ”

"No one has ever called me that, funny, really funny. And what should I call you? Mr. Lei? Ray Huanxi? orβ€”"

Speaking of this, Stephen himself couldn't help laughing: "Call you Brother Huanxi like everyone else?"

Huh? That sounds good.

A dignified baron actually called himself Brother Huanxi?

"Lao Si, you can call it whatever you want. Brother Huanxi grinned: "Isn't a name just a title." They said I had an old friend in the Blue Scarf Project, but I didn't expect it to be you. Lao Si, you also participated in the Blue Silk Scarf Project?"

"Yes, it was the people at the Blue Scarf Base Camp who invited me to participate. Stephen shrugged: "Originally, I didn't want to come, but I heard that you came, so I agreed." Brother Huanxi. ”

Brother Huanxi smiled with a cry of Brother Huanxi.

But Gomez, who re-entered, happened to hear this name, and couldn't help frowning, His Excellency the Baron was so out of shape, how could he call a young child like that?

And this kid actually agreed to come down so aggressively!(To be continued.) )
