According to the provisions of the contract, employees use the company's technology, and the research and development results belong to the company, and they enjoy a certain percentage of the share, depending on the degree of difficulty and the market. Although he will share a little benefit, at least he doesn't have to worry about it.

He continued to build a full set of rich and handsome toys, from exoskeletons to holographic masks, to plasma lightsabers and electromagnetic guns, and kept several sets in a row, even if the United States completely banned guns, it would not affect him, because electromagnetic guns use electricity, and bullets are just a piece of metal.

A few days later, An Feng received a call from the construction party.

This construction party, of course, is the construction party located in the Santa Barbara mansion, and it has been almost three years since the construction, and it has passed in the blink of an eye, and he has seen it a few times on the way, and the appearance is very beautiful, but the places that cannot be seen, such as the interior of the building, are very time-consuming.

Now the construction company told him that the overall progress was 85%, but there was a problem for him to decide.

After An Feng understood the situation, he contacted the chief designer.

Teresa studied architecture in Europe, and the style of English gardens and Baroque architecture won Joanna's favor and brought her a lot of income, and she is currently in charge of the overall style, but because the total area is too large, there are more than a dozen designers with different details.

Teresa and An Feng talked about the road to the beach, and hoped that An Feng would take a look at the scene and make a decision.

After hanging up, Joanna asked, "What's wrong?" ”

An Feng said simply: "It was the construction on the sea side, and it was originally to build a small road down, but the designer wanted to use the beach below, and they tested that the sea water on the coast is very shallow, and the coastline of more than a kilometer does not want to be wasted, so they plan to widen the road." Able to drive down. ”

"I've thought about it too." Joanna said, "It's just that the height difference is more than 30 meters, and the construction is not easy, right?" ”

"They have a solution, ask your opinion now, or will we go see tomorrow?"

"I'll see it tomorrow." Joanna looked forward to it, "Now is the time to consider getting the housekeeper and maid in the house to familiarize themselves with the environment." Let the housekeeper arrange the details and plan the use of each place. If you wait until the official delivery to get used to it, it will definitely be in a hurry. ”

"That's just as well." An Feng said that Joanna has experience in this point.

……

The next morning, all the servants and bodyguards set out, and in addition to the male and female butlers, seven servants were hired, five of whom were from South America, and were paid well. Excellent service demanded as a top housekeeper. The conditions are harsh, but the pay is much higher than in other places.

An Feng didn't choose a plane, he drove the convertible phantom out, and always felt that at this age, driving this kind of car was very suitable for the theme.

"What do you think?" An Feng asked.

"No impetuousness." Joanna was sorting out his collar, "I like men like that. ”

"Okay." An Feng smiled.

The handling of this large car is average, but it is very imposing to drive, and the excellent suspension performance allows it to walk through obstacles as if it were on the ground. The occupants do not feel the bumps and lean back on the wide seats. Even after a few hours of travel, you can comfortably stretch your limbs and relieve fatigue.

Blown by the Pacific Ocean breezes, California's coastal areas are cool, and only the Midwest is hot, making it a livable location. When traveling in this weather today, open the canopy to welcome the sun and the ocean, drive on the mountain road, and experience the sea and sky scenery on both sides, which is wonderful.

It has been almost three years since the construction of their mansion began. According to the original estimate, the latest five years to deliver, fast four years can be completed, now 85% of the content is done, followed by the art processing link, pay attention to slow work out of fine work, the pursuit of speed is not good.

When An Feng arrived by car, the appearance had been completely renewed.

It used to be a deserted park, bare and lifeless, but now the road is lined with lawns and green trees, and when you open a private road, you will see a row of blue and white painted fences, which spread long and long on both sides, one stone carving at each distance, which is very artistic.

The gate was closed, and when the convoy approached, the staff came to open the door.

Passing through the gate is a meadow of manicured grass, two hundred meters long and one hundred meters wide, surrounded by no trees to block the view, so that visitors can see the main building at a glance, a row of imposing baroque buildings stands proudly in front of everyone, gold and ivory white shine in the sun, and in the center is a wide brick pavement with flowerpots and low logs.

The carriageway is located on the left and right hand sides and presents two arcs.

According to driving habits, there is the entrance on the right-hand side, and after driving along the way, I went around for half a circle to the front of the building, where a fountain had been built and the sculpture was standing, but there was no water. Parking in front of the main entrance, a brown-haired lady in professional attire stands by the steps, she is the designer.

After the apparition stopped, Teresa pulled the car door for Joanna. An Feng got out of the car and stepped forward to shake her hand: "I brought a bit more people this time." ”

Teresa smiled, "I'll arrange for someone else to be in charge of the guide." ”

An Feng said: "They are here to familiarize themselves with the environment, and they don't need to prepare anything, the housekeeper will arrange it." ”

Teresa looked at the old butler who got out of the car and the housekeeper and the team of servants and bodyguards in charge. The formation is not small, but it is also in line with An Feng's identity, as a person who is willing to spend a lot of money to build a palace-style manor mansion, it is unreasonable to say that there is no façade.

Brandon, the housekeeper, was very satisfied with the environment and began to go sightseeing and familiarize himself with the environment.

An Feng and Joanna stepped into the building.

Teresa introduced them as she led them inside to appreciate the unfinished luxury.

Whether it's the floor, the walls, or the ceiling overhead, the use of color and decoration is very appropriate, and some details, such as the sculpture of the staircase handrail and the stone carving by the backyard door, are also very painstakingly designed, and some of them have been suggested by the architect to purchase the existing ones.

Teresa explains: "We go down to every detail, use precious materials, and build with care. ”

Teresa poured her heart and soul into the building, and it can be seen from her introduction to every aspect and detail, some of which are still easy to ignore, while others are just the right amount of embellishment, even if the construction site is a little chaotic and not cleaned, but the effect has made An Feng very satisfied.

The viewing effect on the first floor is very good. It's just that I raise my head frequently, and my neck is a little sore.

Because the sculptures and ceiling paintings are high, the first floor is at least six or seven meters high, and you need to look up frequently.

"It's the foyer, and it's used for cocktail parties, dances, or other group events." Teresa introduces a spacious living room.

"It's very on-topic." Joanna was satisfied.

There is also a restaurant and study room in the surrounding area, as well as a reception area. They are all in the style of tall, spacious and resplendent gold, from one side of the building to the other, more than 100 meters long, what you can appreciate will be the owner's strong financial resources and the pursuit of the ultimate enjoyment of the mentality, which is sinking.

After viewing the first floor, return to the center of the living room, and go up to the second floor from the stairs here, the staircase is also similar to the style of the main entrance, curved. It can be taken up from both sides, like a pair of brackets, and in the middle is the door to the back garden, which is currently under construction and cannot be passed through for the time being.

The second floor is a little lower than the first floor, and the feeling of atmosphere, emptiness has been slowed down, but the extravagant splendor remains, and it is designed with eight rooms. Each has its own character and renovation and is currently being renovated. It's even more messy than the first floor, with all kinds of materials and packaging everywhere.

After a few cursory glances, I went downstairs to the back garden.

The neatly manicured meadows, spliced into various patterns, are exemplary English gardens, and have spectacular artificial lakes. The Chinese-style pavilions and pavilions on the lake are a fusion of various regional styles, classicism, romanticism...... Exotic sublimates the theme once again.

An Feng feels that it can only be described as "perfect".

Walk on the green lawns, in addition to the open green spaces and lakes. Surrounded by transplanted trees, they grow neatly and straightly, and the lush branches and foliage block the prying eyes of the outside world, protecting the entire perfect living area, which is very in line with the privacy protection of the rich.

After walking for more than ten minutes, I came to the edge of the coast.

"We were going to dig a path down from here, build two stone steps next to it, put handrails around it, plant some evergreen plants, and spread all the way down to the beach, and then fill in part of the beach by hand to expand it," Teresa explains. ”

An Feng looked at the coastline, the blue sea and blue sky, and the waves were chasing, and he also felt that this beautiful scenery should not be wasted, and after discussing a few words with Joanna, he was happy to start work in their way. Teresa also said that it would fit perfectly with the theme of the estate and be unique.

An Feng said: "It seems that the lady is more enthusiastic about designing it than we are. ”

Joanna smiled: "We didn't think of so many details either. ”

Teresa said: "Designers think everything they have designed is the brainchild of their hearts, and I want it to be recognized by Mr. and Mrs. and more people than anyone else, which is an honor for me." The estate is clearly going to be here for many years to come. ”

"You're going to be famous for it." An Feng said.

"Thank you, sir." She said.

……

The design of the manor makes An Feng very satisfied, that is, after the original main building has been reduced, the actual feeling is still huge, the main building is more than 100 meters long, more than 10 meters high, but only two floors, coupled with the interior of the splendid design, after appreciating the luxury, it is very appropriate to describe it as a replica of the palace.

I have seen many classic manors and personally tended to be the butler Brandon, it is indeed the perfect play of Western architectural style in modern times, coupled with exotic embellishments, the unexpected effect is that the area is too large, three hundred acres, seven people are not enough.

"I estimate that it would take five people to manage the garden and the daily cleaning, and double the number of people who are responsible for the diet and daily living," Brandon said. ”

"You can look for as many as you can, as long as it's suitable." An Feng said to him.

Brandon said, "Also, I hope to be able to come here to familiarize myself and set up the environment when my husband and wife are not at home, what do you think?" ”

"Of course, that's up to you." An Feng nodded, it would be good to have a thoughtful housekeeper, and he didn't have to think about anything else at all.

According to the construction schedule, it should be delivered within a year.

Anfeng and Joanna wandered around the manor, and finally came to sit on a bench by the artificial lake, the lake was quiet, surrounded by flowers and grass, full of life, Brandon had people bring a well-prepared meal from the winery, and then took out the red wine from the low-temperature wine cabinet in the back seat of Rolls-Royce.

On the grass, a maid lays out the cushions, sets the food, and pours red wine. Joanna said: "In eighteenth- and nineteenth-century Europe, a picnic was also a very elegant royal social event, and the courtyard where the meal was eaten, the occasion and the servants who served it were very particular, and it was usually the manor that had the atmosphere. ”

An Feng raised his wine glass and touched her: "It's just that there aren't enough people." ”

"When it's done, we can invite our family and friends over for a picnic." She smiled.

"Makes sense." An Feng said, "Looking forward to that day." (To be continued......)
