After about an hour's drive, the convoy arrived at the Rothschild family's estate in Bavaria.
"Letting guests stay in a hotel is not our way of hospitality. This manor is our family's property. No reporters or media will disturb us here. I hope you like it." After getting off the car, Carmen said to Jiang politely. Chen said.
He was worthy of being a veteran nobleman from the Napoleonic era. To be able to buy such a magnificent manor in Germany, where land was expensive, money alone was probably not enough. From the classical decoration and the historical stone walls, you can get a glimpse of the historical heritage of this mansion.
It's like this is not a manor, but a museum with hundreds of years of history.
The butler named Thaddeus took four bodyguards to the annex of the manor, where the servants lived. Of course, the so-called place where servants live is only in a cultural sense, and the accommodation conditions there are not inferior to those of star hotels.
Originally, Aisha should also live there, but the old housekeeper keenly saw that her relationship with Jiang Chen was not as simple as it seemed, so he thoughtfully arranged for the two of them to stay in the same building as the main building. In a room.
There is a refreshing woody fragrance in the room with redwood floors, German aristocratic beds, and decorative fireplaces on the walls. The entire bedroom looks elegant yet warm.
As expected of a long-established aristocrat, he even enjoys himself so well.
After seeing this room, Jiang Chen secretly thought that he would have to build a similar bedroom in his villa when he returned. As a nouveau riche, he has never been particular about taste and style.
The maid of the manor had already cleaned the room before the two arrived. After briefly explaining the location of the toilet and bathroom to Jiang Chen, she led them to the dining room.
The color of the dinner was not as elegant as expected, but the taste and nutrition were impeccable. The red wine on the table is the red wine produced by Chateau Lafite, a subsidiary of Rothschild. Although the year is unknown, it is not difficult to smell its high value just from the mellow aroma of the wine.
Speaking of which, the most impressive thing about the Rothschild family is probably red wine and banks. No one knows how rich they are, because they have written it into their family motto to never disclose their wealth and have implemented it to this day. Even if you give up the opportunity to make money by going public.
Turning a deaf ear to the world's comments questioning its decline, and dismissing exaggerated claims such as "Currency War", perhaps this is the calmness of the old aristocracy.
At the dinner table, Carmen and Jiang Chen chatted happily. But they didn't talk about business matters at all. Ayesha was as silent as ever, saying nothing at the dinner table, concentrating on the mutton chops on the plate.
After the meal, it was already getting late, so Carmen just politely wished Jiang Chen a good time. Then after reminding him not to miss the banquet tomorrow night, he left in the car. This manor seems to be only used by the Rothschild family to receive distinguished guests. As a member of the family, he does not live here.
After taking a bath in the marble bathroom, Jiang Chen returned to the bedroom.
Ayesha had already returned before him and was sitting on the bed playing with a small black pen-like electronic device. Of course Jiang Chen would recognize this thing, an anti-monitoring detection device, a gadget sold in most weapon shops in the 6th neighborhood.
Jiang Chen wiped the water stains on his temples with the scarf on his shoulder and asked Ayesha with a smile.
"did you find it?"
Aisha shook her head.
"No."
"It seems that the Rothschild family is quite sincere to us." Jiang Chen nodded with satisfaction.
What he didn't know was that Carmen wasn't trying to spy on him. When they first started working together, the USB flash drive he gave Jiang Chen contained a micro locator. But because it was thrown into the storage space. That thing didn't work at all.
After discovering that the signal from the locator was mysteriously missing, Carmen learned her lesson and stopped making these little tricks that simply "couldn't escape" other people's eyes.
Sitting next to Aisha and smelling the jasmine fragrance, Jiang Chen knew that she had already taken a bath.
Putting his hands on her slender waist, Jiang Chen asked softly in her ear.
"Do you have your itinerary with you?"
Her ears were itchy from the hot air, and her cheeks were flushed as if she had just gotten out of the bath. Ayesha nodded shyly.
"Yeah, it's in the bag."
With that said, she was about to get up and help Jiang Chen get the briefcase on the table. However, the big hand on her waist showed no intention of letting go.
Looking back, Ayesha met that evil look.
"You can watch it tomorrow, why don't you go to bed early today." Jiang Chen said with a wicked smile and a very dishonest right hand.
A night of silence.
Early next morning. Because he had rested early, Jiang Chen got up early.
After waking up Ayesha, who was sleeping as fast as a cat, and after a simple wash, the two of them went to the dining room to enjoy breakfast.
Afterwards, Aisha brought Jiang Chen's itinerary.
On the first day, we arrived in Germany. No special arrangements.
The second day was free during the day, and in the evening attended a banquet hosted by Carmen Rothschild at his Bavarian estate.
Attended the Munich Motor Show on the third day.
Free day on the fourth day.
Return to the new country on the fifth day.
The total five-day itinerary was not fully booked. It was a rare opportunity to come here, so Jiang Chen would not miss visiting this strange and charming country. I heard that Bavaria has a famous attraction - Neuschwanstein Castle, which is the prototype of Disney Castle. If there is a rare opportunity, Jiang Chen plans to take Ayesha to have a look.
No one can tell whether these wonders belonging to human civilization will be seen again one day in the future...
But before leaving the manor, Jiang Chen planned to take Ayesha to visit the scenic spots in front of him.
This is located in the Rothschild estate in Bavaria.
Holding that soft little hand, Jiang Chen walked on the road paved with marble tiles, feeling the cool morning breeze blowing in his face, squinting his eyes and looking at the lush green pine forest. Behind the pine forest is a wide lake.
On the shore of the lake not far away, Jiang Chen accidentally caught a glimpse of a small wooden house leaning against the woods, and a sailboat standing in front of the small wooden house. The sailboat didn't look very fine in workmanship, but from the symmetrical proportions and flat arcs on both sides, Jiang Chen could still tell
An old man wearing a leather jacket was holding a saw and concentrating on a piece of wood.
shipbuilding
Out of curiosity, Jiang Chen looked at him a few more times.
As if noticing Jiang Chen's gaze, the old man raised his hand to say hello to the two of them in a friendly manner, then stopped talking to them and continued to concentrate on the matter at hand.
Jiang Chen retracted the hand he raised to say hello and muttered something in a low voice.
"A Rothschild servant?"
Shaking his head, he no longer took the old man to heart, holding Ayesha's hand and continuing to walk forward along the marble road.
What Jiang Chen didn't know was that before he disappeared from the old man's sight, the old man's eyes were staring at his back.
The slightly frowning brow seemed to be thinking about something. (.)
