Chapter 652 [Sea of Roses]

Although it is a remnant of the Alps, but the mountain is not high, the vegetation on the mountain is particularly lush, you can not underestimate these mountains, in the coastal area can be quite useful, although the French town of Cannes is charming, but it is a seaside city after all.

The humidity on the seashore is heavy, which is not the best environment for the elderly and small children to live in. Fortunately, Cannes is close to the Mediterranean Sea, there is no heat in summer, no cold in winter, and these mountains block the humidity of the sea, living in the mountains is comfortable and cool, which is much better than living by the sea.

So as soon as he entered the mountain poplar mind, he couldn't help but give Douglas a thumbs up, this old boy was indeed a problem, and he lived up to his intention of transferring him from New York, and within two days, he actually found such a good valley castle worthy of reward.

After more than 20 minutes of running over the mountains, the car entered a small mountain village, which lives at the entrance of a valley, through this small village of more than 100 households, and goes straight to the entrance of the valley, at the entrance you will see a stone wall no more than three meters high.

This stone city wall is actually crawling with all kinds of green plants, and all kinds of moss growing, and the age of this stone city wall is not short, and there is a city gate at the opening of the city wall.

Although the east gate is a wooden structure and looks unusually bulky, it does not have a small corner door like workers entering and exiting, but opens from the middle, and there is a very modern doorbell on the side of the door, which can not only make calls, but also video.

Douglas was the first to get out of the car and rang the doorbell to enter the valley, and after a while, the owner of the valley saw that it was Douglas through the video link, and quickly turned on the switch of his door. The two heavy wooden doors were opened by electric opening and opened the valley on both sides, which made Yang Nianzhong, who was sitting in the co-pilot's seat, shine in his eyes.

Entering the valley is a tree-lined path, the most peculiar is the tree-lined path, the two sides are planted not with anything else but plane trees, and it is also a more distinctive French plane tree, look at the diameter of the trunk is more than 80 cm, to say less it has to be more than 100 years old.

The tree-lined path formed by the plane trees is not very wide, only 5 meters wide in diameter, but it is paved with white gravel rock, and it is possible that the white gravel laid on the ground is often crushed by the cleaning car wheels without forming a puff of dust.

After the business car drove in from the door, Yang's eyes at the end of the year were a little insufficient, and the entrance to the valley was very gentle, but the terrain was getting higher and higher, and you could see a large area of farmland at the entrance of the valley, as well as mountain meadows.

After turning over a mountain beam, what appeared in front of Yang Nianzhong was the innermost part of the valley, the height of this mountain beam was very high and in the shape of a step, after turning over, you could see a stone castle standing on the highest hill in the valley.

However, Yang Nianzhong's attention now is not on the small castle on this hill, but on the vast area of roses around the castle, attracting the attention of these roses are densely planted with red roses, yellow roses, purple roses, and blue roses.

These dense rose bushes occupy 1/3 of the valley area, with a total area of an astonishing 50 acres, and the area of the mountain valley is 200 acres, and the other 150 acres is actually a total of 250 acres of mountain land on both sides.

These rose bushes cover more than 50 acres, and who would give 50 acres of precious mountain valley land to grow roses, the owner of the valley loves roses.

It is surprising that such a large piece of land can be allocated for the cultivation of roses, and there are so many varieties planted, and the flowers are still so bright and lush.

But you can't deny that the 50 acres of roses are so beautiful, all kinds of colors compete with each other, you can find all kinds of colors in these roses.

The roses planted on both sides of the road closer and closer to the stone castle began to change, not those ordinary red roses, nor the more precious blue roses, but a black rose, which bloomed very small, but so black and beautiful.

The black rose Yang Nianzhong saw for the first time, Yang Nianzhong grew so big, he had never seen a black rose, and he didn't know that there were black roses in this world, seeing Yang Nianzhong's stunned appearance, Douglas on the side smiled and explained.

"Boss, are you surprised to see those black roses? I didn't expect that there were people in the world who specially cultivated black roses. ”

Yang Nianzhong nodded helplessly, and looked back at Douglas sitting in the middle of the business car from the co-pilot seat with a smile. "You're really right, I've never seen black roses when I'm so big, I didn't even know there were black roses in this world."

Douglas smiled and said, "At first, I also felt very strange, I specifically asked the owner of this valley, because the owner of this valley is a baron, and the coat of arms of the noble family is a black rose. ”

"And these black roses planted on both sides of the road are not pure black roses, they should really be purple-red, but the black of purple becomes black roses."

"If you look closely at these black roses, and if you look at them from a distance, they don't have the same degree of preciousness in terms of color, so there are very few black roses."

It turns out that this is the case, no wonder the black rose is only planted on the edge of the rose sea, like a landscape tree in two rows, you don't care whether it is a purple black rose or a pure black rose, as long as it is a black rose, its value must be much higher than other roses.

But even so, Yang Nianzhong also felt that the 50 acres of roses were too precious, and the valley was so dreamy, which woman could resist the romantic plot of the roses. No wonder Douglas didn't let himself reveal to his mother and Anne that there was such a big surprise when he came to the mountain to see the house, waiting for the two ladies in the house.

In front of the sea of roses is a small castle built on a hill, and the area of the castle is not large, and it is full of creepers, roses, and other beautiful plants in the cracks of these plants. You can see that the castle is all made of long strips of bluestone that have been carefully carved and polished, and the height of the castle is 4 floors, but the 4th floor is actually a tower and a platform.

The three floors below are the places for people to live, the castle is actually sitting in the direction of the north and facing the south, the lighting is particularly good, the size of the doors and windows is also particularly large, although it is a boxy castle, there is no peculiar design, but the architectural style of the castle looks particularly symmetrical.

At the entrance to the castle there is a fountain with a diameter of more than 5 meters, and the stone carving in the middle of the fountain is not an ordinary angel or a human figure, but a blooming black rose. The tiny streams of water erupted from the rose petals.

As soon as the car came around the rose-shaped fountain and stopped at the door, the gate of the castle was opened from the inside, and a middle-aged couple wearing suits and dresses held hands, smiling at the door of the castle, waving to Yang Nianzhong, the buyer of the castle.
