Chapter 116: Visit You Ying Manor

When I returned to the hotel, I saw Tang Wei talking on the phone.

Listening to their conversation, Locke knew that it was Janie calling.

"I didn't expect your relationship with Jenny to be even better than I thought." When Tang Wei hung up the phone, Locke smiled and said, "To be honest, I'm very surprised that you can become friends." ”

"Who knows why she looks at me differently, obviously my interests and hobbies are very different from hers, and sometimes I feel that it is better to have a cat than to be friends with her."

Tang Wei sighed: "She said that she would spend Christmas in Los Angeles this year, and she called me on the plane."

Just now, he mocked the flight attendant's Texas accent with me, and even said on the phone that he would ask the flight attendant to clean up the blackhead to avoid making her look uncomfortable.

I had the feeling that the stewardess was probably going to spit into her champagne.

Thanks to Jenny, she managed to destroy all my beautiful illusions about the children of rich families. ”

After getting along for a long time, Tang Wei has become accustomed to her being completely two faces in formal occasions and in private.

It was hard for her to believe that an elegant, knowledgeable, and caring woman who behaved at a cocktail party or the like would be such a face in front of the service staff.

Now Tang Wei has learned the way to get along with Jenny, only listening to topics of interest, as for those complaints, ridicule, contempt, etc., just take them as a deaf ear.

While chatting, the front desk of the hotel called and said that a little girl had come to visit.

Knowing it was Peggy, Locke asked the waiter to bring her up.

Because the parents were separating and both were determined to start a new life, there was little attention paid to Peggy's daughter, and within two days Peggy was unwilling to stay at home.

It can be seen that the little girl is not as indifferent as she said, and chats with Peggy for a while, just as Deborah calls to say that there is a party at the family estate.

The prestige of the You Ying family in Texas is very high, after all, it was here that it started, and Texas is the base camp of the You Ying family.

When Peggy heard about Deborah's identity, she said she wanted to see it too.

Locke knew that Peggy was probably not really interested in the You Ying family's party, but he didn't want to stay at home longer, but he nodded and agreed.

In order to show her importance to Locke, Deborah personally came to the hotel to pick up Locke and the others.

The three of them sat on the extended Lincoln, the car started, Deborah opened a bottle of red wine from the car wine cabinet, poured it for Locke and Tang Wei, poured another drink for Peggy, and said unhurriedly:

"This is my father's collection, he loves red wine, he has his own wineries in France and Spain, and last year he photographed a barrel of 80-year-old red wine, but unfortunately he couldn't drink it at all."

"I don't have much of a taste for red wine, and I can't accept the bitterness." Locke smiled and said, "I heard that the You Ying family's manor is very large, and I thought that if I had the opportunity, I might be able to hunt on horseback." ”

"Of course, if you are interested, you can stay for a few more days, and I will let the housekeeper arrange it." Deborah said: "My grandfather was very fond of hunting, and I learned a lot from a young age, but there are fewer prey this season. ”

Peggy grinned as she watched the two of them chat, and if you were familiar with her, you could tell that she was watching a play.

Deborah didn't say that it was actually her first time throwing a party in person, and Locke was one of her most valued guests.

In high society, everyone relies on party parties to make connections, and the number and weight of guests can reflect the ability of the party host.

The You Ying family's estate consists of 75 buildings, 72 private roads, a small airport, a sculpture garden specially designed by top artists, and an art gallery with a large collection.

There are also dedicated playgrounds, golf courses, and more, as well as exclusive farms, large wild forest parks, and several lakes.

In order to maintain such a large estate, there will be special personal guards, gardeners, convoys, and servants to serve the members of the You Ying family who live here.

Listening to Deborah's introduction, Locke felt that this place was like a self-sufficient independent territory.

In comparison, his own farm is about the same size as You Ying Manor, but the grade is not half a bit.

Deborah's introduction gave Locke more ideas about how to redesign the farm, and maybe talk to a designer when he returns at Christmas.

Of course, Locke did not intend to completely imitate the manor of the You Ying family, such as sculpture gardens and playgrounds, so there was no need to build them.

You can build a house you like, a private jet park, two private jets in the future, and a research lab of your own.

There were a lot of luxury cars seen along the way, and when the car stopped at the manor, everyone got out of the car, and Locke looked at it and said, "Nice house, it looks like the queen's palace?!" ”

Glancing at Locke, I could see that he was just saying pretty things, and Deborah didn't say anything.

This house is indeed good, but if you want to talk about the palace, it can't be compared, and the United States is still a lot worse than Europe in terms of artistic heritage.

However, the collection of antiques inside opened Locke's eyes, and it can be seen everywhere in this house alone.

In this way, the artwork in the treasure that Locke obtained under the Holy Trinity Church may be worth a little more than the entire You Ying family, but it is also of the same magnitude.

After a brief tour, the group sat on the sofa and drank black tea to rest, and Locke said to Deborah: "I see that there are a lot of guests here today, you don't have to take care of us so much." ”

"It's okay, everyone else except you is my old friend, and they don't have the same investment ability as you.

My great-grandfather gave me ten million dollars in funding, and I needed a successful investment to prove my abilities. ”

After a few temptations, Deborah had already guessed that Locke had seen her purpose, so she simply stopped hiding it, which made it even more atmospheric.

Locke smiled, Deborah's strategy of getting along with him would not make him feel offended, before coming, Locke had already considered today's meeting.

So he smiled and said: "I have a little trouble, if you can help me solve it, I can promise to help you invest, 10 million US dollars, but ask the investment direction, in a year, the income will be at least doubled." ”

"But when it comes to the direction of investment, which investor do you think would be willing to accept such conditions?"

Locke relented, but Deborah didn't agree, because his terms were not very good.

However, when asked about the direction of investment, it means that she can't know where the money she invests is going, which is the same as giving the money to Locke for nothing.

"There is a big opportunity within a year, and I have been staring at it for a long time, so it is naturally impossible to let the news circulate, so as not to have an accident."

Locke said: "Of course, in order to give you peace of mind, we can sign a contract, and if the income does not double what I said, then I am willing to make up for it." ”
