Chapter 1520 Goldberg

Li Mu didn't expect that the world's richest man like Bill Gates would come to London to attend such a party, but then he thought, aren't he here too?

Now I am only one step away from the world's richest man. Once I take this step, my real value may be twice as high as Bill Gates.

Maybe Bill Gates would be surprised if he knew he would come.

After quickly passing the customs, Li Mu and his team's convoy drove out of the airport in a mighty manner.

As soon as the convoy left the airport, several police cars and police motorcycles immediately merged into the formation, escorting the way forward and backward, and sailing towards south London.

Li Mu doesn't like the weather in London very much. Although it is cool, it is gloomy and the air is full of wet smell, and it looks like it has just rained. Teve Johnson introduced Li Mu: "It rains often in London, which is very different from the weather in Yanjing. There are fewer sunny days than in Yanjing, and the air humidity is higher than that in Yanjing."

Li Mu asked him curiously: "Have you lived in Yanjing?"

"I spent a while in Yanjing a long time ago," steve johnson smiled and said, "Many people don't like the wet weather like London, which is frequent rainy, but then again, the royal family in the Middle East loves the weather like London, which is often rainy. If you have contact with them, you will find that they like the two seasons of rain and snow. When it rains, the royal family is basically from the Middle East."

Li Mu nodded and chuckled: "The more you lack, the more you love what you love. It's like the northernmost people in China like to spend the winter in the southernmost part of China and even buy homes."

"Yes!" steve johnson said with a smile: "I have lived in London for a long time and I really liked dry cities. Yanjing is one of them, but the air quality is a bit poor."

The two chatted all the way, and it started drizzling outside the car window again.

The convoy drove on the closed highway at a speed of about 90 kilometers per hour. At this time, the city had disappeared on both sides of the road. Instead, there were large areas of green space, forests, small hills and castles hidden in dense forests. Teve Johnson told Li Mu: "This area is actually Oxfordshire. Nearby, there are dozens or hundreds of castles and manors with hundreds of history, the small ones cover only tens of thousands of square meters, and the large ones have an area of ​​thousands of acres, including the castle and manors."

Li Mu had heard of the ancient castles in Britain and asked with a smile: "I heard that buying an ancient castle in the UK must be maintained and repaired regularly in accordance with national regulations?" teve johnson nodded and said: "It is true, so many of the original owners of the castles have sold their castles in recent decades. Most of the people who inherited the castles and manors from their ancestors are basically difficult to afford the huge expenses of the castles in contemporary times, so many castles have been bought by some new overseas wealthy people."

Speaking of this, steve johnson said: "There are three rich people in the world who like the UK the most, namely the Middle East, India and Russia. The top rich people in these countries basically live in the UK, so many of the nearby castles and manors are in their hands. If you are interested, you can also buy a suitable manor here."

Li Mu shook his head and smiled and said, "I'd better forget it. It's hard for people like me to adapt to this old-money lifestyle."

...

The convoy drove out of the highway and drove on an extremely flat asphalt road in the countryside. When the car was driving on such a road, it almost didn't feel any vibrations in the suspension. The quiet and comfortable, the curves and the undulations of the road were designed in very exquisite design. When the car was driving at high speed, it could ensure that people would feel uncomfortable when sitting in the car, which surprised Li Mu very much.

Moreover, the two lanes of this asphalt road are not wide in both directions, but fortunately, there are no vehicles along the way, and the scenery on both sides of the road is also very good. Even the trees on the green side of the road are very unified, with symmetrical left and right sides and uniform spacing, and even pruning symmetrical left and right.

According to Steve Johnson, the road is about three miles long, almost five kilometers long, and is the private road of Goldberg Manor. In other words, if you drive on this road, there is only one destination, and that is Goldberg Manor.

What made Li Mu even more unbelievable was that the land on both sides of the road was owned by the Goldberg family, but most of these areas were not counted within the area of ​​the goldberg manor area, but the goldberg family owned it in the form of other farmlands, grasslands, woodlands, horse farms, and golf courses.

Li Mu couldn't help but sigh that he used to think that the life of the rich in China was already very luxurious, but unexpectedly, the rich in Britain lived even more luxuriously, not only had their own private manors, but also their own private roads.

A few minutes later, the convoy began to slow down, and Steve Johnson told Li Mu: "We're almost here."

Li Mu shifted his gaze from one side of the road to the front of the car. From a distance, he could see a huge castle complex directly in front of the road.

As the car gets closer, the appearance of the building complex becomes clearer and clearer. This castle complex has an inverted "concave" shape and is very large in scale. The main color of the complex is rose gold, and the color combination is atmospheric and exquisite. From the color point of view, it does not look like an ancient building with a century-old history at all, but as new as a new one.

The entrance to the entire manor is a huge and solemn stone arch. The black door with golden sculptures opens on both sides. The width inside the arch is enough for most vehicles to enter loosely.

The convoy did not stop and quickly passed through the arch. As soon as he entered the arch, the scenery inside the manor suddenly became clear. The castle complex was right in front of it, about a thousand meters away. At this time, both sides of the road were all neatly arranged like a football field, with green lawns with different depths, and a huge sculptural fountain in the center of the arch and the castle.

Looking into the distance, the lawn is almost impossible to see at first glance. The lawn on the left is relatively flat, and several groups of horses of different colors are running on the lawn in the distance. You can see that each horse has a man in a black equestrian suit and a black helmet.

On the right side, several rolling hills extend out to the distance. From a distance, you can find the sparse white caravans moving around, which looks like a golf course.

After the convoy bypassed the fountain, the convoy headed straight for the entire castle complex with an inverted "concave" shape. In the center of the inverted "concave", there was a large square with a large surface. The middle of the square was completely empty. In addition to the driving lanes on both sides, there were also multi-layered plants on the roadside. Various plants were designed together in an orderly manner, exquisite and atmospheric.

In addition, there are various sculptures around the plants, which look very artistic.

The convoy drove into the left side, after a ninety-degree turn, stopped in front of the main castle, and looked closer at the main castle. Just the entrance to the main gate, you need to tilt your neck to see the whole thing. Eight huge round stone pillars are towering, supporting the top of the entire gate, and it is estimated that it is at least twenty meters high.

After the convoy stopped, more than a dozen men wearing black suits and white gloves on both sides were neatly opened the doors on the left and right sides for the eight cars.

The car Li Mu was riding was parked at the front, and the door was opened directly opposite the entrance. A British gentleman in his thirties opened the door for him, holding the door with one hand and blocking the top of the door with the other.

As soon as Li Mu got out of the car, more than ten European-faced men and women walked out of the gate opposite. If it weren't for the Rolls-Royce behind him, just looking at the dress of these people, Li Mu would have thought he had traveled to the end of the 19th century.

The more than a dozen people who came here were men and women, and the men were dressed very formally. Not only were they a complete suit, shirt and tie, but also had a delicate vest inside, a black top hat on the head, and a white square scarf on the outer pocket of the suit on the left side was neatly stuffed with a square gold. There were also exquisite men's corsages above the square gold.

As for the ladies of these people, they are even more particular about their dresses. Those who are older wear small suits and mid-skirt suits, from various jewelry to corsages to various hats and headdresses, they are all so exquisite that they are almost cumbersome. Younger women are just a little simpler. They do not wear suits and skirts, but they wear a whole set of dresses, but other jewelry and headdresses are not negligent at all.

In contrast, Li Mu's dress seemed much more casual. He just wore formal clothes according to normal social etiquette, that is, a suit, shirt, tie and leather shoes, and other things, he didn't even have a watch.

At this time, steve johnson had already got off the car from the other side and quickly walked around Li Mu. The dozen people happened to be approaching.

Walking in the front was an old man who looked about sixty years old.

When the old man was two or three meters away from Li Mu, he stretched out his hands and came to Li Mu and said enthusiastically: "Mr. Li, welcome you to the goldberg manor. I am the current manager of the goldberg family, davison goldberg (Davison Gao Bo)."

Li Mu shook hands with him politely and said politely: "I am very honored to be a guest at your manor."

Davidson Gaobai smiled and said, "Mr. Li, please allow me to introduce my family to you."

Li Mu nodded, and Davidson Gao Bo first introduced a silver-haired woman standing beside him and said, "This is my wife, Jenny Gao Bo."

According to British etiquette, when meeting women, you should hug them gently and give them a vest gift, so Li Mu bent down slightly and gently touched the silver-haired woman on her cheeks.

Davidson Gober then introduced him to other members of the Gaobo family, including Davidson Gober's eldest son William Gober, his nephew Andrew Gober, his eldest grandson John Gober and his granddaughter Wendy Gober.

When introducing Wendy Gaobo, Davidson introduced: "Mr. Li, Wendy is 22 years old and has graduated from Cambridge University. She is very interested in Chinese culture and has always said that she wants to study for a graduate degree in China and specializes in Chinese language and culture. You are all young people, so you can get familiar with it more."

Wendy Gaobai's appearance made Li Mu feel particularly familiar. She looked at least eighty-point similar to the famous Hollywood actress Scarlett Johnson, but she was not as wild as she looked. On the contrary, Wendy Gaobai looked quite intellectual and beautiful. After all, she was a top university student, and her temperament was indeed very different from that of an actor.
