Chapter 505: Rothschild's Manor
About an hour's drive, the convoy arrived at the Rothschild family's estate in Bavaria.
"Letting guests stay in hostels is not our way of hospitality. This estate is our family property, and we hope you enjoy it without any journalists. After getting out of the car, Carmen said to Jiang Chen very politely.
As an old aristocrat of the Napoleonic era, it is not enough to buy such a magnificent estate in Germany, where land is expensive. From the classical decoration and the stone walls with a historical atmosphere, you can get a glimpse of the historical heritage of this mansion.
It's as if this isn't a manor, but a centuries-old museum.
A butler named Thaddeus took four bodyguards to the manor's annex, where the servants lived. Of course, the place where the so-called servants live is only in the cultural sense, and the accommodation conditions there are not inferior to those of star-rated hotels.
Originally, Aisha should have lived there, but the old housekeeper was keenly aware that the relationship between her and Jiang Chen was not as simple as it seemed, so he thoughtfully arranged the place where the two of them stayed in the same room in the main building.
The room with a red shirt and wooden floors has a refreshing woody scent, a Germanic aristocratic bed, and a decorative fireplace on the wall, making the whole bedroom look elegant and warm.
is worthy of being a veteran aristocrat, and even enjoying it is so compelling.
After seeing this room, Jiang Chen secretly thought that when he went back, he would definitely have to make a similar bedroom in his villa. As a nouveau riche, he has always been not particular about taste and force.
The maid of the manor had cleaned up the room before the two arrived. After briefly explaining the location of the toilet and bathroom to Jiang Chen, he took the two to the dining room.
The colors of the dinner were not as graceful as expected, but the taste and nutrition were impeccable. The red wine on the table is the red wine produced by Château Lafite, a Rothschild's industry. Although I don't know the vintage, it is not difficult to smell the value of the wine from the mellow aroma alone.
Speaking of which, the most impressive thing about the Rothschilds in the world is probably the wine and the bank. No one knows how rich they really are, because they have written the family motto of never disclosing their wealth and carry it out to this day, even if they give up the opportunity to go public and make money.
Turning a deaf ear to the world's rhetoric questioning its decline, and dismissing the exaggerations of novels such as "Currency Wars." Perhaps this is the calmness of the old aristocracy.
At the dinner table, Carmen and Jiang Chen had a good conversation, but they didn't talk about business at all. Aisha was as silent as ever. At the dinner table, he didn't say a word, concentrating on the lamb chops on the plate.
After the meal, it was not early, and Carmen just politely wished Jiang Chen a good time. Then remind him not to miss tomorrow night's banquet afterward. I left in the car. The estate seemed to be just a Rothschild's reception for distinguished guests, and he didn't live here as a member of the family.
After taking a shower in the marble bathroom, Jiang Chen returned to the bedroom.
Aisha had already returned before him, sitting on the bed fiddling with a small black pen-shaped electronic device. Jiang Chen naturally wouldn't fail to recognize this thing, anti-listening detection device, most weapon stores in the sixth block have gadgets for sale.
Wiping the water stains on his sideburns with the scarf on his shoulder, Jiang Chen asked Aisha with a smile.
"Did you find it?"
Aisha shook her head.
"Nope. ”
"It seems that the Rothschilds are still sincere with us. Jiang Chen nodded with satisfaction.
What he didn't know was that Carmen didn't try to listen to him. When we first started working together. The USB flash drive he gave Jiang Chen had a miniature locator in it. But because it was thrown into storage, it didn't work at all.
When it was discovered that the signal of the locator was mysteriously missing. Carmen learned to be obedient, and didn't make these small actions that "can't escape" people's eyes at all.
Sitting next to Aisha, smelling the jasmine-scented fragrance, Jiang Chen knew that she had already taken a bath.
Putting his hand on her slender waist, Jiang Chen asked softly in her ear.
"Do you have the itinerary with you?"
The roots of her ears were a little tickled by the hot air, and her cheeks were flushed from the bath, and Aisha nodded slightly shyly.
"Well, in the bag. ”
As she spoke, she was about to get up and help Jiang Chen retrieve the briefcase that was resting on the table, but the big hand on her waist did not mean to let go at all.
Turning around, Aisha met the evil look.
"It's okay to watch tomorrow, or you can rest early today. Jiang Chen smiled evilly, and said very dishonestly with his right hand.
Nothing was said all night.
Early the next morning, because of the early rest, Jiang Chen got up early.
After waking up Aisha, who was sleeping like a cat, and after a brief wash, the two went to the dining room to enjoy breakfast together.
After that, Aisha took the itinerary for Jiang Chen.
On the first day, I arrived in Germany with no special arrangements.
The second day is free during the day and in the evening attends a banquet hosted by Carmen Rothschild at the Bavarian estate.
On the third day, he attended the Munich Motor Show.
Free and easy on the fourth day.
On the fifth day, he returned to the new country.
The five-day itinerary is not full. It is a rare opportunity to come here, Jiang Chen naturally will not miss visiting this strange and charming country. I heard that Bavaria has a famous attraction - Neuschwanstein Castle, which is the prototype of Disney Castle. Rare opportunity, Jiang Chen planned to take Aisha to have a look.
No one can say whether these wonders of human civilization will be seen again one day in the future......
However, before leaving the manor, Jiang Chen planned to take Aisha to visit the attractions in front of him.
This is located in the Rothschild estate in Bavaria.
Holding the soft little hand, walking on the pavement paved with marble bricks, feeling the cool morning breeze blowing in his face, Jiang Chen squinted at the verdant pine forest. Behind the pine forest is a wide lake.
On the shore of the lake not far away, Jiang Chen stumbled upon a small wooden house leaning against the edge of the woods, and a sailboat standing in front of the wooden house. The workmanship of this sailboat does not seem to be very fine, but from the symmetrical proportions and flat arcs on both sides, Jiang Chen can still see it
An old man in a leather jacket was carrying a saw, intently pondering a piece of wood.
Shipbuilding?
Because of curiosity, Jiang Chen looked at him a few more times.
As if noticing Jiang Chen's gaze, the old man raised his hand to the two of them in a friendly manner, and then stopped paying attention to the two of them and continued to concentrate on the matter at hand.
Retracting the hand that raised to say hello, Jiang Chen muttered in a low voice.
"A servant of the Rothschilds?"
Shaking his head, he didn't take the old man to heart anymore, took Aisha's hand and continued to walk along the marble brick path.
It's just that what Jiang Chen didn't know was that before he disappeared from the old man's field of vision, the old man's eyes had been staring at his back.
The slightly furrowed brow seemed to be thinking about something. (To be continued.) )
