^^Library].74]uy].In late 1990, on Christmas Eve, Joseph quietly traveled to the Scottish Territory. This is by. l/>

The title of Aberdeen's territory has just been given recently, and the main reason is that the Earl of Aberdeen's family owns tens of thousands of acres of land, and the tenant farmers include more than 1,000 people, which some Scottish nobles jokingly called.

Although the town under construction is owned by the Scottish government, the influence of the Aberdeen family in the town can be imagined because the entire town belongs to the Aberdeen family.

In the earl's absence, it is naturally Li Xiaohan who affects the position of the mayor, and if there is no consent from him, it is estimated that some local committees will not dare to appoint and elect the mayor at will.

Not to mention the rest, Li Xiaohan only needs to raise the price of local grain and rent, and those angry farmers will smash the door of these committee members' homes.

The town had not yet been built, but John had already appointed the mayor of the town, who stood on the construction site every day and directed the workers to work, build houses and even prepare to build a branch iron to be used to transport some grain and specialties from the Earldom of Aberdeen in the future.

Before the town of Aberdeen was erected, some orders and investments had already come to the door. Naturally, they are not for nothing, these are the credit and connections of Joseph play a key role.

Joseph didn't want the Earldom of Aberdeen to have more traces of Nord, and the rare friends of the Nord King reached out one after another, among which Huaxia was the most concerned.

The purpose is very simple, they hope that Li Xiaohan can become a nobleman with extraordinary influence in Scotland and even England in the future, and can say something for China at certain times and places.

Although the earl is Joseph, everyone understands that the real controller here is Li Xiaohan, a Chinese from the East, yes. Li Xiaohan is already a British citizen at this time, in fact, it is not only her but also Li Xiaoxi.

Li's mother just came here because Li Xiaohan was pregnant and gave birth, and the Li family's father also held the position of deputy director of the Industrial and Commercial Bureau, so he didn't want to throw away the "official position" that he had finally gotten and came to eat and drink with his daughter.

The position of deputy director of the Industrial and Commercial Bureau was also obtained because of his daughter? But that is completely different from following his daughter directly, all in all, the father of the Li family does not want to be a person who eats and drinks with his daughter, and he also takes care of the face of the head of the family.

Li Xiaoxi's British nationality is mainly convenient in the UK, although I don't want to admit it, but staying abroad during this period is quite a remarkable thing, not to mention that most of them are in the UK.

Immigration Applications? Is this still a difficult task? The real situation is that the officials of the Immigration Bureau came to the castle in person to go through the procedures, and even Li Xiaohan and Li Xiaoxi did not show up during the process.

Because of the arrival of Joseph. The castle was clearly different, and the servants all had the most joyful smiles on their faces, especially Alan. One of his old faces was almost bursting with laughter.

The black Rolls-Royce had already made his way to the airport, and now all they had to do was wait, and the only important person who made it to the airport was probably John, who was the most anxious one, eager to show off his achievements to Joseph.

……

Glasgow Airport

Joseph, who was dressed in a black suit, stepped off the plane very low-key, and couldn't help but smile when he looked at the black Rolls-Royce not far away. Of course, the smile is not because of Rolls-Royce, but because of John in front of more than a dozen black-clad bodyguards.

"Long time no see. My friend. ”

"Long time no see."

A slight hug, even if he understands that Joseph is King Nord. But John still couldn't keep his distance, which was naturally something Joseph wanted to see.

"Why didn't you go to my wedding?". Joseph also invited his Cambridge friends, and everyone else gladly went, but John refused, much to Joseph's percussion.

"Don't forget who I am. Mayor Aberdeen, it's not fitting for me to come to Nord for your wedding, unless I don't want to serve my little princess in the future. ”

The little princess is naturally not referring to Li Xiaohan, but Joseph and her daughter, the only heir Alice or Li Muqing.

"And my Mr. Mayor of Aberdeen, when is it going to go?"

"Now, of course, Lord Count."

Bending down to make a gentleman's salute, Joseph was not polite and sat directly in the car.

"Where did you get these things?"

"Butler Allen, I think it's very elegant, so I use it."

"It's better to do less, that's the etiquette of a servant when facing a nobleman."

Hearing this, John opened his mouth to say something, but he still kept his mouth shut when he thought about it, he knew that Joseph must not like to hear it, even if he was eating with the Aberdeen family now.

About half an hour after leaving Glasgow Airport, the convoy began to drive towards a narrower road, and suddenly Joseph saw a sign - the private property of the Aberdeen family in front of him.

"Here, too?"

John understood what Joseph was asking, and nodded proudly, "All the way to the castle, this thousands of acres of land belong to the Aberdeen family, and there is even a small mountain range and a hot spring in the mountain. ”

"If nothing else, the mark just now is your handiwork!"

If the Aberdeen family's private territory is arrogant, this is definitely not something that Li Xiaohan or Allen can do.

"This time you guessed wrong, this is the handiwork of Butler Allen, he said that this is to prevent outsiders from accidentally entering the special placement, but I think this is a show off."

It is indeed a show-off, there are still many nobles in Britain, but there are few who own so much land, not to mention that Scotland is the entire United Kingdom, and the Aberdeen family is estimated to be one of the largest landowners.

Ten million pounds, tens of millions of pounds to buy such a remote and barren piece of land, if it were not for the better seed from Nord, this land would only bring losses to the Aberdeen family for many years.

It is indeed the largest in terms of area, but in terms of quality, it may be equivalent to 4,000 acres of land in England, which is in the middle and upper class, but it is by no means the largest landowner as advertised in the newspapers.

It's winter, and the north of Scotland itself is cold, not to mention that the land on both sides of the road has been covered with snow, and there are scattered elk and other animals running in search of food.

"This is Xi's pet, and she owns the largest herd of elk in the Earldom of Aberdeen."

Joseph imagined Li Xiaohan's description of her eccentric sister in his mind, and it was hard to imagine that such a little loli could raise such a group of elk.

"Won't they run out of the territory?"

"No, they are very obedient and intelligent, they are generally in the vicinity, and the last time someone tried to hunt them, it scared them enough."

John laughed and talked about the elk, and couldn't help but want to laugh every time he thought of Li Xiaoxi's angry face and the picture of the male servant of the castle chasing the hunter with a shotgun. Of course, holding a shotgun is not ready to kill the other party, just to scare.

What a naughty little guy!

Joseph had a slight headache, not knowing if his gift would satisfy her.

The gifts had been delivered by car, all in the hands of the guards, and had just been sent to the back of the specially prepared wagon with Joseph's boarding.

"How is Old Madam Li?"

What do you think? After being stunned for a moment, John realized what Joseph was asking, and couldn't help but smile and said, "Very merciful old man, I believe you will get along very well." ”

Joseph didn't have the nervousness and apprehension of his mother-in-law when he first saw him, after all, he was the king of Nord, and it was the old lady of the Li family who should really be worried, even if his identity was now an earl.

The castle soon appeared in front of you, and there were already more than a dozen owners of the castle and high-ranking servants standing at the gate, including Earl Al, the butler of Allen's butler, and so on.

Blonde hair and black eyes, very handsome in appearance, relatively tall figure, very energetic under the backdrop of a suit, the most important thing is that smile, giving people a good impression out of thin air.

This is the first impression that the old lady of the Li family has seen Joseph, she is worthy of Xiao Muqing's father, and her beauty is really not only the credit of her daughter.

Looking at Li Xiaohan's mother, who looked like a middle-aged mother of ordinary Chinese descent in her forties, Joseph smiled slightly and took the initiative to bend down and salute: "Mrs. Li, it's a pleasure to meet you." ”

Li Xiaohan has said before that there is no habit of calling mother-in-law and mother in the West, so although she is very reluctant, Li's mother is still happy to accept Joseph's greetings.

"I'm glad to meet you, Joseph, too."

The Li family's mother was a little nervous and didn't know how to respond to Joseph's salute, but fortunately, Joseph quickly turned his attention to Li Xiaoxi, who was in the first place.

Bright eyebrows and pink skin, such a cute and beautiful little Lori, you can vaguely see a trace of Li Xiaohan's shadow, worthy of being a sister.

"You must be Li Xiaoxi! William! ”

"Your Majesty...... Lord Earl. ”

William, the head of the Security Bureau, directed the guards to remove a large box from the wagon, and as the box opened, a four-month-old lioness cub appeared in front of everyone.

"I once had a pet, and this is his daughter, and now I give it to you, Xi."

"Thank you, brother-in-law."

The sweet smile and crisp voice made Joseph very happy, as long as he was happy, then everything was easy to say.

Patting Li Xiaoxi's head, Joseph looked at Allen on the other side, and didn't notice the difference in Li Xiaohan's eyes, his sister knows best, but it's very difficult to serve, especially when others touch her head, but he didn't expect to make a face to Joseph or open his hand.

"Alan, the castle and here are very good."

It's just a simple sentence, but what could be more appreciative than that?

"Hard work, Han."

Turning around, there is only one word for Li Xiaohan, but compared to other words, this word is obviously the most suitable for here, Li Xiaohan smiled slightly and did not answer, everything was silent. (To be continued.) (lw0。 ))
