Chapter 314: Manor
The group got into the car and went back to the Ye family's big manor here.
Ye Haoqian has work to talk about, and Ye Zhao accompanies him.
Grandma Ye took her children and grandchildren to sit in the back car.
After that, there is Shang Ruyi's house.
From the airport to the Ye family's manor, there is a more than an hour's drive.
It was a hilltop mansion perched on the edge of the city.
When she was on the plane, Yu Shufen told Su Wan that the old man had a good vision back then, and he bought the barren mountain when the harbor city was not developed, and originally just wanted to make a vineyard for winemaking, but never thought that he would discover ore in the process of development.
Yu Shufen didn't know what kind of ore it was, it was very rare anyway.
The old man did not mine this windfall alone, but handed it over.
I have to praise the old man's original pattern, in fact, the Ye family at the beginning was just starting, far from the current influence, even if he didn't hand it over, he couldn't keep it, so he simply made a favor.
After that, the above handed over the shipping privileges here to the Ye family.
At that time, this was actually a small port city, and it would not be too exaggerated to think about how to develop, who would have thought that the world was changing so fast, and the Ye family's shipping company would sit on the top spot here in a few years.
Under the leadership of Ye Haoqian, the Ye family took advantage of the wind of shipping to do trade, opened factories, sold goods to all over the world, and brought things from all over the world to this side, making a lot of money.
In the past few decades, Ye Haoqian's vision has been very accurate, and he rarely fails in business, investing in what he earns.
He was willing to pave the way for himself and knew how to spend money, so he slowly gained a firm foothold outside.
Due to the drive of the Ye family, the city soon became prosperous, coupled with the investment and construction of railways and airports, attracting many people to come to open factories and invest, and the population increased greatly, and the place became a famous bay city from a small seaport.
The Ye family's prestige here is extremely high.
Yu Shufen was very proud when she talked about these things, but she was a little disappointed when she mentioned that the family business had moved abroad.
In fact, not only Yu Shufen, Ye Haoqian wants to return to China, but there are still people in the clan who do not support it.
Some people were born outside, grew up outside, have forgotten the family and country feelings left by their ancestors, in their eyes, this is open and prosperous, and has a solid foundation, and everything can be done with ease, and in today's country, it is very inconvenient to even make a phone call.
However, Ye Haoqian is the controller of the family, and the things he decides do not need the consent of others, especially an idler like Yu Shufen, who does not even have the right to question.
Back then, after this mountain forest was mined, it was returned to the Ye family.
Ye Haoqian felt that this was a blessed land, so he spent money to build a manor for the family to live in.
After years of expansion and repair, today's Ye family manor has become a private mansion that can be ranked among the best in the world.
Due to the mining that year, half of the hill was bulldozed, so the mountain is not too high, and it takes more than 20 minutes from the bottom to the top to reach the gate of the manor at the top of the mountain.
Grandma Ye and Su Wan were both first-time visitors, but neither of them was in the mood to appreciate the magnificence and beauty of the place.
The car entered the large iron gate, slowly ascended, and finally parked under the steps of the main house.
The butlers and servants who remained here stood on both sides to greet them, they were of different colors, but they all spoke Chinese.
The exterior of the manor is British, but the design inside incorporates some oriental elements, and many of the objects are also from there.
There are half-height blue and white porcelain vases, quaint tea houses, and ink and blue hanging on the wall, all of which show the homesickness of the owner.
As soon as Ye Haoqian returned, he called his three sons to the conference room with Hailar, who was waiting in the manor.
The others, led by the butler and the servant, went to the room that had been arranged long ago.
The room where Grandma Ye lived was the master room in the manor, where Ye Haoqian lived when he was there.
Several people accompanied Grandma Ye to the room, and when she sat down on the sofa outside, the maid respectfully asked how to clean up the things.
Do you want to drink something, change your clothes, etc.
Grandma Ye didn't really have the heart to do this now, but when she saw that everyone was looking at her, she cheered up and made arrangements.
"Xiaowan, you guys should also go back to the house to rest first, and see if there is any new news later."
Su Wan nodded, "Grandma, you can take a rest."
"Okay."
Except for the master room, the other rooms of the manor are on the left and right sides of the back.
Marble-columned corridors connect every part of the main building, and each suite is equipped with a small hall, study, and balcony for sightseeing.
Of course, because of the different places, some rooms are larger and have better directions.
After Ye Zhiyuan returned, he would return here with his wife and children almost every year, and here, their family had a special room.
Ye Hao and Su Wan's room was arranged next door to them.
Along the way, there were maids with them to help carry the luggage.
Yu Shufen saw that Su Wan was silent, so she persuaded her, "Don't worry, it'll be fine." The old man is back, and nothing will happen to Ah Hao."
Although Yu Shufen often complained in her heart that the old couple was eccentric towards Ye Hao and Su Wan, if something really happened, she would still be on their side.
After all, they are the real family.
Ye Hao's existence made her very jealous, but she had to admit that because of this son, they also began to be valued by the old man, and they have increased their investment in the business of Hong Kong City in the past six months.
These are real benefits.
Su Wan glanced sideways at Yu Shufen, thought for a while and said, "I see that the weather has been bad recently, so I don't walk around outside and am optimistic about Xiaolin."
I don't know if Yu Shufen can understand, she has done what she should do, and it's up to her to do anything else.
Yu Shufen definitely didn't understand, she looked outside, the weather was very good!
Vera's room here is smaller than the master bedroom in the middle, but it is well located, and the balcony has a view of the harbor.
The one who brought Su Wan over was a black aunt in her forties, named Deya, who was supposed to be the main attendant of Ye Hao before, and when she entered the room and asked, "When will the eldest young master come back, it's been almost a week since he left."
Su Wan smiled and said, "Just these days."
Daiya helped sort out the suitcase and brought Su Wan a cup of black tea before leaving.
"Young grandma, if you need anything, you can just ring the bell."
Su Wan nodded, and when Daia went out, she gently locked the door.
After entering the bathroom, Su Wan deliberately turned on the faucet, then took off her shoes and entered the cloakroom and found the gift Ye Hao said.
This is a two-palm-sized wooden jewelry box with a paddle clasp design.
Su Wan gently opened the box and saw a sapphire necklace.
The necklace is very beautiful and looks very valuable.
However, Su Wan didn't care about this, Ye Hao specially told her to take good care of it, thinking that this thing was very important.
