303 Philip returning to the castle
Charles and Andrew, who had no one asked for their opinions, could only sigh helplessly in their hearts after looking at each other.
While looking at Li Changheng and Annie with envy, the two brothers looked at Li Changheng with some fear.
If there was no mask, they might have a chance to try to combine the invention he made in the past two months.
But since you have gained the benefits, and then mention the invention, it is the most disgusting greed and ignorance of advancing and retreating.
He just doesn't treat Li Changheng's friends and family, but treats him as a fool.
When Charles thought of his father saying something related to Li Changheng, he thought that if he was targeted by him, he felt a little scared.
Andrew's heart was already scared just when he thought of Li Changheng's expression as he squinted his eyes and stared at him.
There are also those photos and negatives, after Li Changheng returned to London two months ago and mentioned them to him once.
Afterwards, Li Changheng seemed to have forgotten and never talked about the photos.
Andrew, who didn't dare to let Philip know that he was smoking special tobacco, was photographed by someone, could only be regarded as an ostrich and was burned.
Or if you have the opportunity to help him in the future, take the opportunity to mention this matter.
Then the two brothers put aside the thoughts in their hearts and listened enviously to Anne's talk about the manor in Long Island, New York.
As he was talking, Philip suddenly asked Li Changheng with a smile.
"Henry, you and Anne are in England, and there is no country estate for summer or hunting, right?"
Li Changheng smiled and nodded, knowing in his heart that Philip probably wanted to use the manor, as a gift for business such as masks, road bicycles and electric drills.
To avoid making people feel that their family is too greedy.
Sure enough, Philip thought for a while and said, "Anne likes Balmoral Castle very much."
“no,no,no.”
Before Philip could finish his words, Li Changheng frowned and refused directly.
To be honest, he really didn't expect that Philip would actually want to send Balmoral Castle to himself.
"I don't want to be scolded, and I don't want Annie to be publicly criticized."
"Okay, thank you for your understanding."
Not only Philip was relieved, but Anne herself was relieved.
Balmora Castle is Philip and Mary, the favorite Scottish resort estate to visit in summer.
It has a full 50,000 acres of hills, mountains, forests, large areas of grassland and numerous herds of deer, wild boars, foxes, quails, pheasants and rabbits.
Although it is very large, according to the price of the land, it is about 5 to 10 million pounds.
The biggest reason why Li Changheng refused was that in addition to the Philips family, he would spend the summer in Balmoral Castle every summer.
There is also the first item for everyone to come to visit in the second week of July every year.
And it seems that except for the first item of the woman who has been in power for 11 years, all the other first items are very positive and satisfied with being invited to visit the Castle of Balmola.
There have even been people who are stubborn and have to leave until there is too much backlog and if they don’t go back to London, there will be problems.
After eating barbecue with the royal family, he was assigned to wash dishes and dishes first.
The only one with a transcendent status is probably Fatty Qiu.
So once the castle is given to him and Anne, transaction taxes and other taxes are trivial.
But the English nobles and guests kept guessing why Philip gave him this favorite castle to Anne and him.
When it comes to Zhengzhi, Li Changheng doesn't want to be regarded as a Downing Street. This is a test by the royal family and he is trapped into the whirlpool of struggle.
Even if you are inevitably going to contact each first item in the future, the best way is to help them solve some troubles at that time.
Then they are regarded by various factions in England as smart people with gentle personalities, knowing what to do and what not to do, and the bridge that can maintain the relationship between Downing Street and the royal family.
It is no threat to anyone. Although it will be looked down upon by others, it is better than making enemies.
Moreover, no one will offend someone who can say a few words to anyone, or even have a strong relationship but has a wide range of social and influence.
Wait, Li Changheng suddenly realized that Philip had never thought of sending out Balmoral Castle.
My eyes rolled, "I heard that Howard Manor has been uninhabited for many years, and the fire twenty years ago has left the castle unrepaired, right?"
Philip immediately understood and then looked at Li Changheng with a frown.
This bastard boy wants to give him the Howard Manor for free?
After opening the castle more than two months ago, Hoddle Howard rejected Li Changheng's proposal.
It was probably at that time that Hoddle and Howard Manor were targeted by Henry.
Philip was silent for Hodel in his heart for a few seconds, but he chose to stand on Li Changheng's side without any hesitation.
And anyway, the Howard family at this time has long since fallen to the point where they cannot even maintain and repair the Howard Manor.
Give them a reasonable price and then get rid of the maintenance fee calculated at 100,000 pounds a year, Hoddle should not refuse.
"Well, I'll talk to the Howards."
Li Changheng smiled with satisfaction.
Although Philip did not say it clearly, he and Li Changheng knew in his heart that the castle must be given away, not bought on behalf of others or introduced by the middleman.
"Henry, I don't think Howard Manor is a good choice."
Seeing that Philip and Li Changheng had agreed, Charles couldn't help but reveal, "Howard Manor is not a good choice at this time.
I heard that the annual maintenance fee for the manor is more than 100,000 pounds, and the repair fee is more than one million pounds.
If there are male servants, maids, gardeners, employees who specialize in taking care of hunting dogs and keeping horses, they will train them.
The salary of more than 40 people plus horses, hunting dogs and other expenses can be paid 100,000 pounds a year, right?”
"Okay, Charles, the only thing Henry doesn't need to worry about is money."
Philip said with a laugh, "He has money than me, and even his assets are just a little less than Ralder Grosvenor."
"What?"
Princess Margaret was surprised and even looked at Li Changheng and Anne incredible.
"Didn't that say Henry is worth more than £100 million?"
Now even Anne covered her mouth incredibly, "Dear, is Aunt Margaret's true?"
Li Changheng smiled blankly, then shifted his target to hold Annie's hand.
"Now you are not worried that the one million pounds of household expenses you have will put too much pressure on me?"
"God, I can't stay anymore, you guys are so stingy."
Andrew joked to Mary, "Mommy, why am I not a princess when I was born, otherwise I would definitely be as carefree as Anne."
