077 Manor

For Mr. Huang Zhizhong, a super-rich man in Nanyang, it is very important to have a good relationship with Liang En, even if it is worth paying a certain price.

That's why he didn't choose to pretend to be deaf and dumb after the end of this cultural relics donation activity, but specifically asked Liang En to prepare to give Liang En the value of the cultural relics themselves as gifts. Bring two people closer through this means.

In order to avoid misunderstandings in some aspects due to the different perceptions of the two sides, he simply prepared a large gift list and put all the things he prepared into it for Liang En to choose.

"Thank you then." After some excuses, Liang En took the list and looked at it, and after seeing the list that Liang En accepted, Mr. Huang breathed a sigh of relief.

Liang En is now a real master in his eyes, and at the same time, he also owes Liang En a lot of favors, in this case, if Liang En refuses to accept the gift, then he doesn't know how to get along in the future.

This is also the reason why Liang En began to choose gifts after resigning according to tradition, after all, the more people owe him, the better, and if it reaches a certain level, the situation will deteriorate rapidly, and even the two sides will turn against each other.

Therefore, Liang En also gave Huang Zhizhong a chance to repay the favor this time, although if this favor is repaid with money, the money required is an astronomical amount for ordinary people, but for Huang Zhizhong, a rich man, it is naturally the best choice to use money to repay favors.

There is a huge variety of things in the list, and every item has a euro price tag behind it, and all Liang has to do is pick out something worth 8.5 million euros from it - Mr. Huang knows Liang En's character, so there is no obvious premium.

That's right, the artifacts that Liang picked out of the loot and returned last time are now conservatively valued at around 8.5 million euros, which is not impossible if they are really auctioned.

On the one hand, it can be sold at such a sky-high price because from ancient times to the present, gold, silver and other precious metal items are used by the upper class of society, especially gold products, so they themselves are exquisitely made, the historical and artistic value is not low, and the price will naturally not be low.

On the other hand, unlike porcelain, wood, etc., precious metals such as gold and silver are known to everyone, and at the same time, they are still valuable after being damaged, especially after melting, so there are not many ancient precious metal products preserved to this day, and all of them are scarce.

For these reasons, the number of precious metal products preserved in the private sector is far less than that of porcelain or wood, so ordinary people rarely hear about auctions in this regard, and they are naturally not sensitive to prices.

As a professional, Liang En knew about this situation, so after reading the price, he nodded with satisfaction, and then began to read it seriously along the list.

The first column on the list naturally says pay directly in cash, and the back of it is like a grocery store with a whole bunch of things, from precious metal casts, sports cars, yachts, antiques, and all kinds of luxury goods.

"Hey, are there still so many fixed assets?"

At the end of the booklet, several real estate properties come into view, ranging from luxury homes scattered throughout the country to large areas of agricultural and even industrial land.

Excluding the three or four hundred square meters of mansions in London, Paris, or New York and the surrounding upscale neighborhoods at the turn of the century, Liang focused his attention on a few manor ranches.

Because he remembered that many of the creatures unique to the ancient world were likely to have some economic value, although some of these creatures were related to spiritual power, and the modern world could not survive, but others could still be cultivated or raised.

At the same time, as a Huaxia native, he has a love for the land in his bones, and his status as a cultivator also makes him yearn to have a slightly more secluded land as a residence in this side of the modern world.

After careful consideration, the first thing that was denied was a bunch of Australian farms, although the price could even buy a large farm of 280 square kilometers at most, but considering that Australian farms are very dead to water sources, it is not conducive to future development.

At the same time, Liang En's next plan had a lot to deal with with different people, and in this case, acquiring properties in the middle of nowhere was clearly contrary to his goal, so a large number of farms in the United States and Canada were also excluded.

"This one is too far away - don't, this one is too small - don't, this climate can't be good - and you can't ......" After quickly rejecting one option after another, Liang En suddenly saw a location that attracted him.

It is a 570-hectare estate in the eastern part of the Italian region of Molise, which includes 300 hectares of forest and 270 hectares of arable land, and a river flows through the estate.

The entire estate is mainly cultivated with wheat, vegetables and grapes, with 220 hectares of wheat, 15 hectares of grapes and 35 hectares of vegetables, as well as complete supporting facilities for wheat storage, vegetable packaging and wine production.

It's just that Liang En's eyebrows are twisted together after checking the financial statements, because the estate's annual net profit has been hovering between 4-70,000 euros, which is obviously low considering that the average annual income of Italy is around 21,000 euros.

This has something to do with the economic weakness of the Molise region, where the wheat, vegetables and wine produced by the estates are not very well-known, but not very high.

But even so, the crops planted, the official subsidies, the mushrooms of the forest and the occasional hunting income add up to more than 300,000 euros a year, but such a high income cannot stand up to a gold-eating beast in the territory.

It is an old castle on the top of a hill, built in the 11th century as a fortress built for himself by a nobleman, but was remodeled twice in the 17th and 19th centuries of the Renaissance.

So now the castle has become a standard castle-like residence, and from the outside it is still an old castle, but the huge windows in the main tower of the castle, the marble sculptures in the doorway and the exquisite decoration in the rooms all show that the castle is now a luxurious residence.

Therefore, the maintenance cost of such a castle is also extremely expensive, although it is not as expensive as those of the really large castles that cost millions of euros a year, but when you are unlucky, you still need more than 200,000 euros.

Therefore, after paying the maintenance fee every year, the owner of the manor can get the money, and naturally there is only a fraction left, and even in some years, because of the need for major repairs, the owner has to post the money.

In this way, the whole estate naturally seems to be quite weak, so it will now be put up for sale at a much cheaper price under normal circumstances.

But for Liang En, the manor was a different story, at least it met his requirement to stay away from most of the population and not from the densely populated areas.

"It's the manor." Liang En, the manor marked as a lemon manor on this document, said, "I think this lemon manor is quite suitable for my eyes. ”

"Lemon Manor? This is indeed a nice estate. After looking at the information and thinking for a few seconds, Mr. Huang nodded. It's just that the castle is a little too expensive to maintain - of course, it shouldn't be a problem for you. ”

"Yes, it's because I have my own set of maintenance methods that I'm willing to choose this manor." Liang En replied with a smile, "When can I go and see?" ”

"I'll let my lawyer handle the formalities for you, Mr. Leung. You'll be able to see your estate in about three days. ”
