I Am a Nobleman in England

Chapter 19 So I'm Really Tall, Rich and Handsome!

Aristocrats don't necessarily want to eat extravagantly, but pay more attention to the natural ingredients, the creativity and delicacy of the dishes, and more importantly: they must eat elegantly enough!

As an ordinary person, how can he get used to such troublesome red tape? Arthur's so-called elegance is just pretending, eating slowly and pretending. However, Arthur also knows that he is far from the nobles who have accepted since childhood The etiquette is not a little bit bad, and I don't take it too seriously. After a long time, I believe he will gradually get used to it.

At the end of the afternoon tea, the waiter packed up and pushed the dining car away, leaving only a satisfied Arthur and He who were trimming the cigars with cigar scissors and burning the cigars with a match.

"count--"

"thanks."

Arthur's eyes lit up slightly, he took the cigar, lit it and took a few puffs, and exhaled several puffs of smoke in a row, smelling the most primitive tobacco smell in the air, smoking cigars does not enter the lungs, let alone smoking on an empty stomach, isn't there a sentence In other words, cigars enter the stomach and cigarettes enter the lungs.

In his previous life, his living conditions could not support him to enjoy such high-end cigars. Of course, this does not prevent Arthur from understanding various theoretical knowledge of cigars. After all, as an online codewriter, all kinds of knowledge are involved , So, when he smoked the cigar, he also had a good appearance and was quite skillful. He took a small sip, then spit it out, aftertaste.

Why smoke cigars?

Many people may say to show off, pretend to be 13, or hunt for novelty and follow the crowd.

In fact, to put it bluntly, it is a manifestation of the pursuit of a better life. Cigars are a way of life, but not a necessity, but a pursuit on top of basic life. Cigar smoking can also be seen as a reward for yourself. Cigars are not smoked because cigars are necessary, no one can live without drinking Latour, and the same is true of cigars.

Of course, it is not pretending to be 13. The reason why some people think it is pretending to be 13 can only be said that people who think so have really not reached that height and level, which is the same as the emperor's golden pole.

However, in the Boleyn family, cigars have a different meaning. According to what the old Earl Francis said when he gave Arthur his first cigar when he was 16 years old, cigars will make people mature!

To some extent, it will promote a thinking, and a boy who thinks will become a mature man. For mature men, cigars are a complex and an indispensable subtle influence. Cigars can make a boy grow into a mature man. man.

Thinking of these memories in his mind, Arthur twisted the cigar slightly with his fingers, and then put it on his mouth. After taking a puff, he exhaled lightly, watching the smoke wind and slowly drift away in front of him.

"Paul, tell me, if I mortgage the manor to the bank, how much money can I get?"

Arthur's abrupt question caused the smiling butler Paul to fall into a momentary stupor, but he quickly reacted, his face became solemn, and the eyes he looked at Arthur became disappointed and sad.

"Forty million pounds . . . "

Hearing this number, Arthur's hand holding the cigar couldn't help but tremble, and then looked up in astonishment at the butler Paul who was looking at him with a serious face and complicated eyes, and said in a trembling voice: "Are you sure?" ?”

"Yes, Earl, I'm sure, you should be clear that the Boleyn Manor has been divided into two, the 2,600 acres of land belong to the offshore Boleyn Land Management Company, and the 400 acres of Boleyn Castle and the surrounding land belong to the family fund , It is also this part that makes you have to pay inheritance tax. Before he passed away, the 28th Earl of Boleyn, that is, your father, also considered that Boleyn Manor might be sold one day, so he once asked an asset appraisal company to conduct Estimated, the final figure given is 40 million pounds..."

"Ahem..."

Arthur coughed lightly, his face turned reddish, he didn't know if it was due to the cough, or because he was too excited, his hands were trembling,

Suppressing his cough, Arthur took several puffs of his cigar, the smoke covering his face.

At this time, Arthur was completely excited and ignored the changes in the expression and eyes of the housekeeper Paul. While excited and ecstatic, he unexpectedly remembered a joke he saw on the Internet in his previous life for no reason.

"I've been waiting for my dad to tell me a secret. In fact, our family is very rich, pretending to be poor is just to train you. It's a pity that my dad said, I'm also waiting..."

"Life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what kind of surprise you will get." Arthur blew away the smoke in front of him, suppressed the ecstasy in his heart, and muttered tremblingly.

I thought he was a black iron at first, but I didn't expect it, I never expected that he would become a king in the blink of an eye, and he would definitely reach the pinnacle of his life!

Go to the other place to sell tickets for tourism, go to the other place to convert it into a hotel, all to the other place. . . . . .

At first, I was worried about repaying the loan, and I was still breathless under the pressure of debt. I thought the castle was a burden, but now I’m fine. All I think about during this time is making small troubles. I have to say that my vision is still too narrow up.

When all kinds of thoughts exploded in his mind, Arthur looked up at the butler Paul, and just about to ask something, he was speechless by the helplessness and disappointment in his eyes.

"Hehe, Paul, don't get me wrong. I don't have any intention of selling the family assets. It's just that I didn't expect that Boleyn Manor would be so valuable."

When Paul heard that the young Earl did not intend to sell the manor, he was slightly relieved, and a smile appeared on his face, and he still respectfully said: "You are the 29th Earl of Boleyn, this is your manor, you are completely You can control your property according to your own ideas, but it is not easy for the Boleyn family to retain the ownership of the castle after 28 generations, so you, the Earl of Boleyn, who have been in the 29th generation, are one of the few people in England who can A man who can be called a true nobleman!"

Hearing this, Arthur couldn't help but twitched, and the expression on his face became a little unnatural. Although the words were so euphemistic that people couldn't hear the slightest accusation or lesson, the meaning in the words was undoubtedly very clear,' You kid, do you really want to be a prodigal son and ruin the hard work of 28 generations? "

Good guy, this is trying to suppress him with righteousness!

Although Arthur was a little upset in his heart, after all, he was not a serious Earl Boleyn. Even if he really wanted to sell Boleyn Manor, no one would be able to stop him. However, he did not plan to sell Boleyn. The manor, because he likes this place very much, and he doesn't want to exhaust the water and die after enjoying it.

Making money is to make more money, not lose money.

So Arthur had a dumbfounding expression on his face, stood up and said to the butler Paul very solemnly: "I do have some ideas, but I have never thought about selling Boleyn Manor, and I can assure God of this... "

Arthur reached out to stop Paul, who looked a little embarrassed and wanted to explain something, then walked to the computer on the desk, bent down and shook the mouse, found the manuscript of "Downton Abbey" that had just written five chapters, and said to Paul: "Paul, you can take a look. After reading it, you will understand."
