Chapter 114: The White Castle
An Yifei took the lead in holding her daughter Angel in front, Aunt Hong held her son Ah Huan, Ah Zhi with a slight bulge in her lower abdomen led Ah Jie, and Ah Lian held Ah Zhi's youngest son Ah Guang. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info Xiaoling and Tao Huiming muttered to each other, and boarded the Gulfstream business plane one after another.
It took more than a year to order the Boeing large plane, so the family had to take the slightly crowded Gulfstream to Stardust Island for a vacation.
After getting on the plane, An Yifei put down the back of the aviation chair, squinted his eyes, and lay there to recuperate. In my ears were the chirping of a few children, and the whispers of women.
It's hard to think so much without changing the environment, and now that he's going to Stardust Island, he's thinking about his plan to build a resource chain in the South Pacific.
"The investigation report from Wendy's side shows that if you want to win the main Australian iron ore mines and ports, you need to prepare at least 3 billion US dollars, as well as the later construction and investment? If you don't have a foundation of 10 billion US dollars, you will have to wait for the Plaza Accord to make a profit, and you can't wait for the Plaza Accord to make a profit.
Feeling that the plane was quiet, he turned his head and saw that his family, big and small, could only lie on the chair and sleep, and couldn't help but sigh: "It's really vain to claim that I am still a local tyrant, it looks really wronged, but fortunately, the large Boeing aircraft is in production."
ā¦ā¦
Walking down the gangway, everyone was attracted by the white jade-like and palace-like castle in the distance.
The castle is the work of an English designer, with a strong medieval character, half built on a hill on the seafront, and the other half down to the seaside plain. Against the backdrop of turquoise waters and sky, it's like a city in the clouds.
Coral and several men from the island had already driven to the airport and waited at the airport to greet the Governor's family, the vehicles were also ordered from the United Kingdom, Rolls-Royce, shining, and there were two small flags representing Stardust Island fluttering in the wind in front of the car.
Sitting in the back seat of the luxurious Rolls-Royce, An Yifei was very satisfied with the construction team in the mainland, which was originally like a wild place, and now there is a beautiful asphalt road, on which a beautiful guide line is depicted with white paint, which looks like a passing time.
The jelly-like waters along the highway are blue and clear, and when you look back, there is a verdant plain, and the islanders proudly and consciously maintain the nature here, and do not destroy it just because of the fresh water.
Even An Yifei, who had been here, felt that the renovated Stardust Island had become particularly beautiful, not to mention the women and children, who felt as if they had come to a fairy tale world.
The area of the island is not small, and the white castle that can be seen from the airport gradually becomes larger in the field of vision. Even An Yifei, who had seen the design drawings, was a little excited, in order to build this castle made entirely of Greek and white marble, he threw down tens of millions of dollars.
When the convoy arrived at the gate below the castle, the people from Hong Kong secretly thought, "Is this going to fight the pirates?" Because the castle actually has all the antique defensive elements, the city walls are more than six meters high, and there are structures such as bastions, like a royal palace in a fairy tale.
As the group drove through the gate, the view changed again, and in addition to the five-storey main building, the castle gardens were filled with flowers from many parts of the world. Tulips, calla lilies, and flowers ......, and the main building of the castle extends outwards like all aristocratic manors, and there is a beautiful fountain in the middle of the road, and in the middle of the fountain is ......, which is strangely carved with the totem of China: the phoenix.
A carefully selected lady became the housekeeper here, enjoying the high salary of An Yifei while directing a group of maids to keep the castle neat and clean. Today, the woman, whose ancestors were the nobles of England, wore a medieval gown and waited with her men at the foot of the steps of the main building.
This housekeeper named Adelina reminded An Yifei of the British butler in many movies, thin, rigid, and meticulous about etiquette.
After the assistant Li Hanfeng opened the car door, An Yifei also showed an almost natural aristocratic demeanor, holding his wife Honggu's hand and helping her out of the car, and then the two shook hands with the housekeeper and servants one by one with a smile.
"What would you like to eat tonight, sir?" , Adrina is indeed a qualified housekeeper, and An Yifei is very satisfied with the person picked out by Coral .
The three islands now have their own transport ships and helicopters, which An Yifei bought, of course, paid for. The ingredients became more abundant with the ease of transportation, and of course there were some unruly tourists on the island, but the fierce islanders and guards always made the guys understand that this was a private island.
"Do we have a French chef? Good french food"
"Of course, we have all of that. Sir, there is not only a white chef who is proficient in all kinds of Western cuisine, but also a Chinese chef who has just immigrated."
"Okay, you can arrange accommodation for your wife and children. Coral let's go to the garden and talk."
The women were all infected by this atmosphere, and unconsciously brought a princess-like temperament, and the children became very regular, and under the guidance of the servants, they went to rest and relieve the fatigue of the journey. Li Hanfeng, who knew that the castle was very safe here, was not hypocritical, and after a little observation, he also went to rest under the guidance of the servants.
Only the energetic An Yifei and Coral and a few other stewards of the island came to the other side of the castle, facing a long stretch of white sand in the garden. The same slightly textured white staircase connects the coast with a garden of flowers.
"Coral Korral, last time you called, you said that the island needs to be guarded, right?"
"Yes, sir, as the environment on Tana Island gradually improves, the large number of tourists and stowaways makes our defenses look thin"
"Well, I'll ask the security company over there to recruit some security personnel to come, and you can use them as guards then. Considering the ethnicity of the island, I would have them send only white security guards."
"Yes, sir. In fact, we only need to add about 50 more guards to maintain land security, and a few days ago, we focused our main protection on dealing with smuggling."
"In this way, the five combat boats I bought from the United States are quite good, maybe in the future, when the population increases, I will recruit some local guards", did not expect them to answer this question, touched his chin and thought for a while, An Yifei shifted the topic to the island's economy, "Those who come to set up offshore companies must be strictly scrutinized to avoid low-quality companies from being confused"
Coral understands what An Yifei means by "low quality", which is also the work they have been doing these days, carefully judging the qualifications of registered offshore companies, in fact, in the final analysis, the funds in the account must be real to a certain amount of data.
"Sir, there are now more than 50 legal persons who have registered offshore companies with us, and the annual management fee is very considerable. In accordance with your instructions, we will adopt a universal welfare system in the future, and we will allow some immigrants for teachers, doctors, cooks, and other professionals because schools and hospitals have already been built and implemented."
"Yes, there is no waste of professional talents, even if the island is not used, you can still go to Hong Kong or the United States with our passports, I have industries in those places, and it is allowed to relax the immigration conditions in this area slightly."
An Yifei's identity is both a lord and a permanent hereditary governor, except for ostensibly going to the UK for the record, participating in activities such as the queen's birthday, and sending some gifts, the others can be handled completely independently, and the power is very great.
Before dinner, An Yifei went to visit his castle alone, and put many European cultural relics from the secret room of the South Vietnamese Gang into the exhibition room, and many oil paintings of some years were arranged to be decorated by housekeepers and maids around the castle, so that the interior instantly added a lot of literary and artistic atmosphere.
Hong Gu and A Zhi, who know some painting, found several famous paintings known as peerless in the subsequent visit, which are definitely priceless if they are taken out for auction, but they are displayed by An Yifei as ordinary works of art, and the essence of the local tyrant is fully displayed.
"This chef's skills are very good, no worse than the famous chefs in Paris", Zhong Chuhong ate French food during the filming of the movie, and liked it, and began to comment on the chef in his home.
"Of course, he immigrated to Stardust Island with his whole family, and he also took the salary I gave, of course he has to do things well"
The dining table is a European-style long strip, and of course An Yifei is the main seat, but the order of the women is a little delicate. The first place on the left hand side is Honggu, and below is An Yifei's children. The first place on the right hand side is Xiaoling, which shows how much An Yifei attaches importance to her, and in order is A Zhi, A Lian, and finally Tao Huiming.
Covering up his thoughts by dealing with a delicious French snail, An Yifei secretly thought: "This is the basic prototype of the An family, in the future, it will not be the best beauty with outstanding appearance and character, don't think about sitting at this table"
French Western food is like their paintings, with a strong romantic and artistic charm, and the color, flavor and flavor are not much worse than Chinese food.
The chef used his full energy to cook expensive foie gras, snails, tuna, and more. The dinner in the evening cost more than $300,000 for the ingredients alone, but for An Yifei today, it is a drop in the bucket.
Although it is summer in the Southern Hemisphere, the nights on Stardust Island are very cool, perhaps because it is far from the mainland, and there are not even mosquitoes here.
By the beach, families of all sizes walked in the moonlight, feeling the warmth of the Christmas holiday. The so-called environment and life have changed temperament, everything luxurious in the castle, and the fact that An Yifei's identity has risen from a merchant to a lord and a nobleman, also made women and children personally recognize the changes in the family, and even Anqi, who likes to be naughty, has become like a real little princess.
