Gu Chen really made the front page of the newspaper again, although the public has long been accustomed to such a situation, but this time Gu Chen was canonized as a hereditary nobleman by the British royal family, and was given an archipelago as a territory, there is still considerable enthusiasm.
Compared with ordinary commoners, the European aristocracy was undoubtedly a noble existence in the Middle Ages, and to this day, in the context of Western culture and values occupying the mainstream position in the world, European aristocracy, especially the aristocracy of the old capitalist power Britain, is still admired by many people.
In the eyes of most people, it is a great honor to be canonized as a nobleman, even if it is just a lifelong nobleman who has no hereditary rights, and at the same time, 'mysterious' is also the label of nobles, their lives are far away from the general public, and few people can witness how they live. What's more, Gu Chen also has his own territory.
The Pardocia archipelago is undoubtedly a very foreign place name, it is difficult to find it even on the world map, and it is estimated that few people have heard of it even if they are experts in geography, but in one day it has become a place that many people know......
Gu Chen has never paid too much attention to his newspaper headlines, he has become accustomed to his life of being concerned about his words and deeds, as long as the paparazzi don't bother him too much, in fact, the paparazzi who will chase him for interviews are almost extinct.
It's not because there is no news with Gu Chen, on the contrary, even if Gu Chen wears now, where he usually goes to eat is something that Hong Kong people are extremely interested in. It's just that Gu Chen basically doesn't answer the paparazzi's questions, and it's really intimidating to have so many tall horse bodyguards, so the paparazzi generally follow the candid photos from a distance. Even so, there are still some paparazzi who are often confiscated from film.
At about 1o o'clock in the morning, Gu Chen and He Chaoqiong came to the manor located on the seaside of Deep Water Bay, and after the car drove into the manor, it drove forward along the main road in a straight line, and a row of tall autumn maples were planted on both sides of the avenue, forming a boulevard, and at the end of the avenue was a four-story building. Covering an area of 7ooo square meters, the style of the villa is a combination of Chinese and Western, with both the charm of Chinese classical architecture and the atmosphere of Western modern architecture. It gives people the feeling of luxury but not extravagance, elegant but not popular.
In the middle of the square in front of the villa was a large fountain, around which several cars were parked, but apart from a few bodyguards. Didn't see anyone. I guess I've already gone inside, or I've visited it elsewhere. When He Chaoqiong got out of the car, he couldn't help but exclaim: "I don't feel anything when I look at the design drawings, I didn't expect it to be so big after it was built, you are really extravagant." ”
Hearing this, Gu Chen couldn't help but smile dumbly: "If people don't know how to enjoy life, what's the use of making so much money, is it necessary to wait for death and bring it into the coffin, not to mention that I don't live here alone." If you really want to talk about luxury, you have a share. ”
"Hmph, that's what you say." He Chaoqiong glanced at Gu Chen happily. walked towards the villa, Gu Chen smiled and followed......
After the completion of the manor and the original design drawings are roughly the same, only in some individual details of the difference, in a total area of 138,000 square meters of land distributed a total of 9 main buildings, the first is naturally the main building in the center of the manor, in this four-storey, covers an area of 7ooo square meters of large villa ** has 99 rooms, including a large living room on the first floor, three small living rooms, a large banquet hall, a small banquet hall and a kitchen with the ability to operate a 5oo banquet; On the second floor, there is a Buddhist hall, a small library, a meeting room, and a large gymnasium with a full range of types.
The third and fourth floors are divided into a number of areas without clear boundaries, each area has a bedroom, living room, study, kitchen and dining room, the purpose of this is mainly to let He Chaoqiong and each of them have an independent living space, saying that so many women, if they come together every day face to face, it is strange that there will be no contradictions, usually they stay in their own place, if they want to cook by themselves, they can go to the kitchen by themselves, if they don't want to do it, they can directly order the big kitchen below to do it, and then send it up. There is also a kind of family eating together in the small banquet hall on the first floor, but this situation should be relatively rare, after all, all the women have their own jobs, and it is inevitable that there will be differences in work and rest time, that is, holidays or special days will get together to eat.
In addition to the main building in the center, there is also a side building on each side of the main building, one is for guests, with 3o five-star hotel standard rooms, and the other is for bodyguards and servants; There is also a screening hall for 5o people, an indoor swimming pool, an outdoor swimming pool, and finally three small villas, said to be small villas, in fact, only relative to the main building, each with an area of four or five hundred square meters, one is located on the hillside in the northeast corner of the manor, one is located in the garden in the southwest of the manor, there is an elegant and exquisite pavilion in the garden, one is located in the southeast of the artificial lake, the three villas have different views.
In addition to the building, there is a small golf course and a tennis court, all located in the northwest of the estate.
Entering the villa, Gu Chen and He Chaoqiong first visited the first floor, then took the elevator up to the second floor, and then went up to the third floor, and finally saw Liu Huiyun and Wang Guxian and others in a bedroom on the third floor.
According to Gu Chen's requirements, the design style of each master bedroom on the third and fourth floors is slightly different, some are European classical style, some are modern style, some are Chinese classical style, and some are a fusion of the two styles. Judging from the appearance of this master bedroom, it should be based on the classical Chinese style, with modern style in some details to meet the aesthetics of young people.
After a general visit, everyone walked along the corridor for a while, and then turned into another bedroom, the style of this bedroom is very different from the one just now, it is based on the European classical style, Gu Chen opened the floor-to-ceiling glass door and walked to the balcony, a little visual inspection showed that this balcony is smaller than the balcony of the bedroom just now, standing on the balcony and looking at the surrounding scenery, he walked into the bathroom again, but the current bathroom is larger than the bedroom just now, it should be more than 3o square meters, At the very back of the bathroom is a large bathtub that can bathe three or four people at the same time, and the inside of the bathtub should have been a wall, but it has now been replaced by floor-to-ceiling glass.
Walking out of the bathroom, he bypassed the large bed in the middle and walked into the cloakroom, which was about the same size, but the decoration style was different...... After visiting the main building, the group went to the artificial lake located in the southeast of the manor, only to see that the artificial lake has nearly 1,000 square meters, the water quality is clear, you can clearly see some fish swimming in the water, with the lush grass and trees by the lake, it suddenly gives people a quiet and elegant feeling.
There is no doubt that this is definitely the most beautiful place in the whole manor, but in order to create this beautiful construction company is really not a lot of effort, as we all know, to build a beautiful artificial lake is the most important is to create a living water source, otherwise the artificial lake is built is also a pool of stagnant water, how beautiful at all, but here is close to the sea, there is almost no groundwater near the surface, as a last resort, the construction company has dug in the center of the artificial lake and drilled a deep well one meter wide, up to more than 20 meters, which is the groundwater.
Everyone walked around the lake for most of the time and walked into the villa on the south shore of the lake...... By the time the whole estate was toured, it was already lunchtime.
Liu Huiyun went to Tan Jia Xuan Restaurant for dinner, so a group of more than a dozen people came to Tan Jia Xuan Restaurant in Central.
As soon as she sat down, Liu Huiyun smiled and said: "The house is now built, I like it very much, it's just a little bigger, if you don't have anything to do these days, help me decorate it together, and also choose a room you like, I can say, you all have to live in the manor, so it's more lively." ”
Gu Chenxun ordered some dishes, returned the menu to the waiter, and then said: "Tomorrow, the clearance work of the construction team will be over, if you want to pick up the furniture yourself, you can go to the furniture city to pick it today, if you don't want to, I can directly ask the decoration company to arrange it." In addition, I have already talked to the housekeeping company that there will be 1 housekeeper and 4o servants in the estate the day after tomorrow. ”
"Butler? Is it British? He Chaoqiong asked curiously, in the world, if you want to find the most professional housekeeper, you must go to the UK. In ancient times, in order to meet the needs of the aristocracy, the profession of housekeeper appeared in England, in order to become a qualified housekeeper, in addition to having a noble personal moral quality and proficient in various etiquette, economics, geography, history, language and even music and other professional knowledge should be involved, so as to give birth to a school specializing in the training of housekeepers. To this day, there are still such butler schools in England, but their main service audience has shifted from the aristocracy to some of the world's wealthy and high-ranking people.
"Well, in the past, the housekeeper of a nobleman in the United Kingdom, the nobleman went bankrupt during the economic crisis last year, and he is in his fifties this year, and it is said that he has been a housekeeper since he was 25 years old, and he has not been married, let alone children, and his interpersonal relationship is simple, and he is relieved to use."
