"Three hundred years ago, this place was a suburb of London, the estate of the Earl of Nottingham, an English nobleman."

"Later, King William III bought it for 20,000 pounds, and the estate gradually became a residence."

"William III liked it because it was outside of London, the air was clean, and he had been suffering from asthma and bronchitis and was not suitable for spending much time in other humid places, so from 1690 onwards the new Kensington Palace replaced Whitehall as the King's official and private residence."

"Not only that, but later George I and George II liked it very much, and spent money and manpower to beautify and decorate it, and every ceiling was beautifully painted."

"In October 1760, at the age of seventy-six, George II died of a heart attack, and Kensington Palace ended its royal history, but Queen Victoria moved in."

"It is here that the queen witnesses the birth of the empire on which the sun never sets."

"After her death, it became the home of other minor members of the royal family."

"Now, it's inhabited by Prince William, but ...... He has been studying and has rarely come back recently. ”

Early the next morning, Roland and Kate came to Kensington Palace Garden Street, and found the middle (official) agent (Fang) here by brushing their faces, because Kate had been here a few times, so when they explained that they were still coming to see the house today, they were wearing tuxedos, and they were almost seventy years old in the property (management) industry (home), so they took them to the vacant house for sale.

Maybe it's because of the lack of companionship in old age and the likes to talk to people, but it may also be that telling outsiders about the prosperity of the dynasty can make you feel more proud, so when the old man is guiding, he also tells the story of history.

And when they came to the mansion next to the Italian garden near Lancaster Gate that Kate said last night, the four-story building standing in front of them was eye-catching, the small European-style palace made of white bricks and stones, showing the atmosphere of the British Regency era vividly, and in the center of the pond, the sculpture of Queen Victoria holding a scepter is a careful portrayal of the history of the empire on which the sun never sets, focusing on the exaggerated green, which is the most precious thing-

Because when you look around, you will find that more than 80% of the greenery in the city of London seems to be all here.

Lush forests, green grass, well-trimmed landscapes, and potted plants with different images......

If you pass by drunk one day, you may mistakenly think that you have received a hint from a friend.

Only...... It's pretty bald.

Not only that, in addition to the traditional English castle villas, it is also home to embassies from various countries, such as France, Finland, Russia, India, Saudi Arabia, and the embassies of these countries in the UK are all on this street.

Standing on the roof of the building and looking around, the flags that can be seen with the naked eye make people feel emotional.

At the same time, Roland also trembled, "I can't imagine that one day, I can be protected by the French National Gendarmerie Special Service, the German KSK Special Forces, the Polish Mobile Reaction Combat Force, and the British Special Air Service Regiment?" ”

"It's probably the safest place in the whole of Britain, isn't it?"

"No, No, No......" And after listening to his words, the elderly butler quickly shook his head and denied with a smile: "This is only the second safest place in the UK, and the first safe place is Buckingham Palace." ”

"Ahh Yes, yes, where the queen lives! Roland, who reacted, nodded again and again.

However, the butler continued to deny: "No, no, no, it's because on this street, there is also the Russian Embassy in the UK, their Alpha troops, which are the most unstable factor in the whole block." ”

Such words made Roland stunned on the spot, and when he saw the old butler winking at him with a smile on his face, he instantly realized that he immediately burst out laughing, "Oh! I didn't expect you to make such a joke? ”

"Mr. Allen, although I am sixty-nine, staying in this place, age will only make my experience continue to expand."

The old butler stretched out his arms and made a stretching motion with his white-gloved hands, not only that, but he also said, "If you don't believe me, you can ask your wife, I think she should be impressed by my previous introductions." ”

"Yes, Uncle Riley is a man of great humor." Kate, who had been holding Roland's arm from the beginning, replied with a smile: "The last time I came to see the property, he also asked me not to buy a villa near the French embassy because it was ......"

"Because in the event of a sudden problem, they may surrender before we do, right?" Roland scrambled to speak.

“Bingo！” The old man applauded.

This situation made Roland and Kate laugh even more.

In fact, marriage is something that Roland has long thought about.

From the time of accepting Berkshire Hathaway's investment, it was something that had been thought about.

To an outsider, he may be twenty years old and twenty-one years old.

Returning to the family at this age is a waste of life.

But for himself, the psychological age of more than forty years in two lives has made him look down on all this.

He didn't believe in love before, and he still doesn't believe in love now, but this doesn't conflict with wanting to get married!

It took so much time and earned so much money, and it would be a great loss if it was not passed on!

Although he does envy Howard Hughes, the prototype of Iron Man.

envy of the other party's ability to inherit his parents' inheritance at the age of eighteen; at the age of nineteen, he bought 125 cinemas; filmed "Hell's Angel" at the age of twenty-four; at the age of twenty-eight to design the aircraft by himself; At the age of 30, he broke the world record with H1 designed by himself; At the age of thirty-two, he made history by flying an aircraft of his own design across the continental United States; Around the world at the age of thirty-three; At the age of forty, he funded the construction of a medical school to explore the origin of life.

I envy each other even more that he can have a dewy relationship with a bunch of Hollywood actresses such as Billie Dove, Katharine Hepburn, Betty Davis, Olivia Haverland, Ingrid Bergman, Ava Gardner, Lana Turner, Hedy Lamarr and so on, but-

Roland couldn't accept the fact that Howard Hughes had lived a dashing life, but turned out to have no heirs.

It is even more unacceptable that after the death of Howard Hughes, all the property was inherited by his own Howard Hughes Medical Institute.

Although the Howard Hughes Medical Institute has been benefiting mankind, he is controlled by others after all, and more than 20 billion funds are handed over to people like this, which is indeed a good thing for human beings, but for individuals, why?

Just like a certain rich second generation said, 'The efforts of several generations, why should you lose to study hard for ten years'.

Isn't it just to seek a good life after studying hard for ten years!

At many points, that is, I hope that my juniors will not work as hard as myself.

And other people's ancestors have been messing with for decades, how many lifetimes, isn't this just what they want?

Isn't it because 'Why don't I have a good father?' ’

So Roland will never see that he has fun for half his life, and finally ends up alone.

Not to mention, after tasting the power brought by capital, he didn't want to let go.

Playing the world like Howard Hughes?

Don't look at the jokes.

Isn't it cooler to laugh at the wind and clouds?

In his previous life, he couldn't turn over by Di Mouse's hammer, and in this life, he wanted to determine their life and death.

Not to mention, he and Kate are still a community of interests......

The greater the interest, the more the marriage is stronger, because when two people are united, it is equivalent to a public company merger, and when two people are separated, it is equivalent to a public company split.

The former is all happy, and the latter......

Microsoft, Apple, Google, Facebook, Amazon, who wants to accept it?

Since no one is willing to accept it, won't the marriage be more stable?

"Uncle Riley told me before that this land belongs to the royal family, and the lease is renewed every one hundred and twenty years."

"In addition, even if we buy a house, we can't renovate it without permission."

"The façade of the house cannot be modified, the perimeter fence is not allowed to be replaced, and the surrounding courtyard must be regularly rested and consistent."

"Of course, these things can be left to Uncle Riley, and we just need to pay the property fee."

"Oh yes, he also said that if the interior is to be renovated, you need to take into account the noise nuisance."

"Because the guys who live around can only be royalty, industry oligarchs and ambassadors of various countries, so ......"

"We can't decorate on statutory holidays, during daily breaks."

"Not only that, but if we were to dig deeper and carve out a basement or underground recreational space, we would have to ask for the consent of the other occupants, and if we did it without their consent, the ambassadors could use the Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties to ask us to sell the property and move out of the ......."

While looking at the house, Kate was still half-hanging on Roland, breaking her fingers and talking to her man about the precautions after buying a house, and the restrictions of the bunch of rules and regulations made Roland's scalp tingle, which made him complain in his heart-

'Is this special code to buy a house or invite ancestors!' ’

'This doesn't work, that doesn't work, what a thing! ’

But while Roland was complaining, Roland, who was holding Kate's waist, was still smiling and listening carefully, and when the happy stupid woman stopped thinking about what else had not been explained, Roland saw the stitches again and exposed the topic.

"Okay, I know what you said." (Don't say it, I can't remember it at all.) ）

"Actually, you don't have to worry about these things, you just need to tell me if you like it or not." (Anyway, there are a lot of tools, and they solve it, and you beep so much useless, don't you just want to show your satisfaction?) ）

"If you like it, we'll buy it." (I think you're really enjoying it now!) ）

"If you still want to see it, then let's go." (I don't want to hear the introduction of the second one anymore!) ）

"I don't need to worry about anything else, I can take care of everything!" (Please, let me pay!) It's tiring to see the house! ）

Such intimate words made Kate smile, but even so, she still turned her head, like a little girl, and used the index fingers of both hands to compare a hook in front of Roland.

"But the price of this household is 39 million pounds, plus 11.875 taxes, and it will cost 45 million in the end."

The careful narration made Kate look cute, and Roland raised his hand and flicked it on her head.

"Don't forget, I also want to buy the highest peak in Los Angeles and build a house."

"Not to mention, you are still my wife, who will I spend my money on if I earn money?"

With these words, Kate raised her pink fist and hammered it on Roland's chest, and when she remembered that the old man of the property who accompanied her to see the house was beside her, she turned around and buried her head in Roland's arms.

This action made Riley, who was watching at the scene, smile.

And when he and Roland looked at each other, this old guy made a grimace.

In fact, when Roland told Kate last night that he wanted to arrange the wedding on October 5 this year, that is, on her birthday, this guy had already gone crazy, and after repeatedly confirming with him incoherently, he wanted to surprise Kate, and then Roland, who teased her well, was directly handled by Kate on the recliner.

Before, Roland didn't know what a tigress was.

But last night was over......

He finally understood what it meant to be like a wolf.

Especially when Roland told her that from now until the end of the wedding, all the arrangements were up to her, whether it was to shoot the wedding dress, travel before the wedding, or even stay at home without going anywhere......

That's really not enough for two kidneys!

"So...... We just bought it? ”

Roland glanced down at Kate, but what he saw was the back of his head.

In response to him, there was a dull 'um'.

"Alright then, we can sign the contract now."

Roland looked at Riley, the butler, and saw a lightning speed.

Invite the two of them downstairs and ask the assistant who was waiting outside to bring the proposed purchase contract.

The whole process didn't even take more than three minutes.

The mansions at the top of the UK housing pyramid are never sold on the open market, and if you don't have enough connections, you don't even know which mansions are being put up for sale, so signing on the spot is simply normal for them, because there is no one who can't afford to pay for it.

And before the contract is delivered to Roland, as long as you sign the name in the buyer's column, and then pay the money and taxes on time, these caring royal butlers will complete all the handover procedures for them-

Roland, who was holding a pen, still holding his Kate after the pestle.

"What are you doing?" The sound of the urn came from Roland's arms.

"You sign it." Roland shook his leg and motioned for Kai to play dead again.

"What?" With such words, Kate jerked her head up.

The unbelievable gaze fell on Roland, like a steel fork, trying to poke Roland through.

"Don't look at me like that......"

This situation made Roland cry and laugh, "I gave you a pre-wedding gift......

"I've been with you for five years, and I haven't given you any serious gifts, I wanted to surprise you at the wedding, but considering that there may be a lot of guests at that time, so I saved them from coaxing, so I did this thing first......

"Well, it has something to do with the fact that I can't think of surprises......

"I've always felt that I'm a boring person, and the sacred moment of a wedding for girls may not have any new tricks, so I can only use the excuse of sending things in advance to move you......"

"I hope you can be nicer to me in the future?" Roland's head tilted slightly and shrugged his shoulders.

"What if...... It would be better to have a boy and a girl? ”

The reason for the rotten home made Kate giggle, straddled Roland's lap, she held the man's shoulders with both hands, and hit Roland's chest with her head, and when she got up, her cheeks rubbed all the way, and also left her own joy in Roland's ears, "If it is to create a surprise on the basis of the previous proposal, it is really difficult for you......"

"But don't you think it's a once-in-a-lifetime surprise?"

"So...... You might be getting a question wrong......"

"From that day on, I didn't need to be surprised......"

"All I want is you."

Before the words fell, Kate had already turned around and signed her name on the contract.

And when Roland saw that this guy had written 'Kate Allen', he shook his head helplessly with a sudden surprise.

But when he wanted to raise his big hand and slap Kate's ass hard to make her serious, the butler named Riley directly picked up the contract and nodded with a smile, "Okay, Mr. Allen, Mrs. Allen, the contract is finished." ”

Such a ridiculous behavior made Roland look confused, "No...... She didn't sign her own name......"

"Isn't that her name?" The butler asked rhetorically.

“What？” Roland was stunned on the spot, he thought that the housekeeper had misunderstood.

"It's not! She's still called Kate Winslet, and we're not married yet! ”

"But it doesn't matter." The butler replied even more reasonably, "Don't worry, we may not be able to interfere in other transactions, but here, the queen says, even if the two of you are not officially married, it is still your joint property, and the corresponding documents will be handed over to you after you get married, and no one will raise any objections to them......"

'Hold the grass! ’

Roland, who reacted, hurriedly looked at Kate, and what caught his eye was a face full of tsundere.

"Roland, don't think I don't know you're giving me pre-marital property."

"But I don't need this kind of premarital property."

"Because your whole being is mine."

"It used to be! Now it is! The future is too! ”
