After the dinner, they stayed at the manor and planned to leave at noon the next day and have some time to visit in the morning. According to the butler, the manor was large in area, more than one thousand acres, but it is said that the land of the manor was larger in the past, and now most of the aristocratic territory has become public.

After the democratization of society, the word "manor" has gradually narrowed its scope from being unique to the landlords and has gradually become a mansion with rich people with mountains and rivers. That is, Anfeng, which later emerged. It no longer involves agricultural work, removes public areas, and becomes a complete private territory.

Since it was a tour, the butler drove the electric car and walked around the nearby.

The manor is a bit of a Gothic renaissance style. Unlike the Gothic style that is widely used in religious buildings, it combines many elements and is also applicable to residential houses. The gardens are very unique, and romanticism embezzles all the references in the world, and some Chinese garden styles are also included.

After a tour, An Feng gave a very good review, but to be honest, he felt that his own was better. The color of the manor building here was a bit monotonous. The appearance could only feel the vicissitudes of history it experienced. Although the interior was luxurious and colorful, it still had a classical dullness.

On the contrary, the colors of the exterior of his luxury house in California are very eye-catching, the blue and white style is like a clear holiday sky, lively and playful, and the interior decoration is even more integrated into the jewelry tradition, combining some modern style. In one word, it is "retro", but not real ancient.

After the morning tour, I said goodbye to the owner and returned to London.

The next day, I went to Liverpool to watch another home game of the Reds. Although Joanna attended the event frequently, she finally showed her face. This time the Reds won the game again, and the boss's wife vaguely became the god of luck. The Reds performed very well after she appeared several times.

After taking the lucky Joanna to several events, the short journey to England ended.

When he went back to work on the company, he received news from Khalid in March. He planned to visit Anfeng in the United States and bring friends and a big business. The Green Earth plan has taken root and sprouted around Los Angeles. As Anfeng expected, it was green and the effect was amazing.

Plants that specifically match the environment can adapt tenaciously to the environment. Just like no matter how hot the desert is, there will always be people who can live. No matter how cold the Arctic is, aren’t the Inuit people still excited? The reason is the same, and the genetic technology is even more amazing. Sprinkle water a few times a year to ensure greenness.

Khalid was also interested in An Feng's expectations. The California government and local governments were negotiating with the company to focus on greening in some big cities. If they even allowed, they would rather replace the originally troublesome and water-consuming plants and use this high-tech plant.

The most concerned about technology is the areas with water shortage and desertification. Nevada, the United States, cares very much, and the casino hopes that it can green and realize a real desert oasis. Khalid's visit is equivalent to the attitude of the Qatar government. In addition, he also brings friends, which is definitely a business opportunity.

An Feng has to consider the reception method.

The Qatar royal family is a business partner of the consortium. An Feng and Khalid have a good relationship. Logically speaking, the highest standard is to invite them to their homes. Khalid also treated them like this last time. However, the atmosphere of the winery is not suitable for Arabs, and the wine and Islamic attributes are in conflict.

Finally, she told Joanna about the matter, and she recommended using their manor.

"Isn't some of them not yet ready?" An Feng asked.

Joanna is more familiar with him: "It's just a few details, I asked Mr. Brandon. It's okay to check in now, unless it's very harsh on the details."

"I don't have much demands on details," said An Feng, "Let's go and feel it tomorrow."

...

Anfeng’s manor has entered the final stage.

From construction to now, it took three years and eight months. The construction team has been completed and evacuated, and there are still several designers left to be responsible for the details of the overall effect. That is, considering how to place the vase, whether to change the sculptures, and how security equipment does not affect the installation of aesthetics.

Strictly speaking, it is already 99% complete, with only the final adjustment left. There are some details on how to put a painting. At present, some designers have changed the oil painting to three positions. In order to understand whether it can receive guests, An Feng brought a familiar butler to set off with him.

This time, I didn’t take the bus slowly, so the helicopter went there quickly.

From the aerial view, the manor has been completely built, whether it is the vestibule or the backyard, or the majestic main building in the sun, it looks impeccable, the meticulousness of the flat grass in the British garden, the freshness and softness of the romantic lakes and pavilions...there are intoxicating melodies everywhere.

It is worthy of being the specifications of the royal garden, and it has no problem with the appearance.

An Feng focused on inspecting the main building. Accompanied by the butler who was familiar with the details of life, the designer Theresa led them to tour with ease and introduced: "The main building is 102 meters long, 12 meters high, and 15 meters wide. The two-story design is actually two and a half floors, and the underground floor occupies part of the upper space."

As an acceptance tour, Teresa's explanation was very detailed, and they also started the tour from the lowest level. Unlike the basement that An Feng remembers, it is very spacious and bright. When you look up, you can see the glass windows that greet the outside sunlight, which highlights the ground forty or fifty centimeters. No wonder it is two and a half floors.

As part of the building, it also has a rigorous structure, with floors laid on the ground, and on the right is a storage area that stores daily necessities and grain. Under the retro style decoration, it also has a large refrigerator room, divided into different areas, which can keep different types of food fresh, but not what the kitchen will be about to use.

On the left is the living area, in the middle is a corridor with tiled tiles, on both sides are rooms, a total of twelve rooms and two main rooms. An Feng took a look and continued the overall luxurious style, such as a wardrobe, dressing table and bathroom, as well as a desk, computer and internal telephone.

The overall style of jewelry makes the servants benefit from it. The room is similar to the hotel's luxurious standard room, with an area of ​​about 35 square meters and a spacious space. It is divided into two parts: open bedroom and vestibule, which can be decorated according to your preferences. There are not many servants, and twelve rooms are basically enough.

To be honest, this luxury house, which is specially built with the theme of luxury, has the standard of a star-rated hotel even in the living area of ​​a servant. After all, it is now a new century. The old set was long gone. High-end housekeepers are equivalent to star-rated hotel waiters, and they don’t want to do it without high-paying people.

Leaving the basement and going up, the first floor of the building is an activity area.

The first layer reflects the owner's face and is also the most focused area, which costs the most.

The most luxurious one is the main banquet hall, with high-end wooden floors under its feet and the surrounding decoration is magnificent. It is said that the doors, windows and metal jewelry are all gilded, and hundreds of kilograms of gold were used to decorate the main banquet hall, in order to truly immerse the dinner in the radiant and extreme luxury.

I don’t know what others thought. Anyway, An Feng was in it and felt the ubiquitous rich gold. Even the wooden floor was dark brown, shining by the light yellow light of the crystal lamp on the surrounding walls. Whether under your feet or above your head, golden light was reflected.

The huge ceiling painting above the head is more than thirty meters long and fifteen meters wide. The background depicts Western mythology, including mortals, angels, warriors and heaven, making the banquet hall magnificent. The ceiling painting took more than two years and cost more than six million US dollars to hire four European artists to create it.

There is also a study room, reception living room, living room and commonly used family restaurant on the first floor. Because the main banquet hall is 500 square meters, family dinner is definitely not available, so the family restaurant is relatively small, but it is not reduced in luxury. It is also shining with gold and ivory white, and the five-star restaurant is pale in comparison.

Other kitchens and private living rooms are also on the first floor. Walking in the corridor decorated with crystal chandeliers and gilded sculptures, and admiring each area, your eyes have long been blinded by various "rich gold", but it also conforms to the baroque style - exaggerated and dynamic show-off.

To put it bluntly, Baroque style is built with exquisiteness and luxury.

This style, including the later evolution of Rococo, is mainly gorgeous, exquisite and delicate, and showing off wealth is the core element. Without this golden and dazzling effect, it is not Baroque. Even without intention, the architectural style will bring invisible ostentation.

Walk up the stairs paved with brown wool carpets and come to the second floor.

Most of the bedrooms are bedrooms. The U-shaped corridor connects two long corridors on the left and right hands. There are many sculptures on the road. The huge retro glass windows around it allow the outdoor light to shine in. Looking through a corridor, there are all kinds of rooms, a total of eight rooms. The master bedroom is on the right side of the corridor.

The height of the second floor is about four meters, which is more than six meters shorter than the first floor, and the rich gold is relatively less. After all, it is a living area and needs to be properly adjusted, embellished with some noble ivory white or the blue of the lake, so that people can feel good every day.

The door of the master bedroom is ivory white, the two doors are in open shapes, the gilded figures on it are symmetrical, and the door handles are also golden and made of gold. When you push the door open, it is filled with a faint fragrance. Unlike the majestic atmosphere on the first floor, the bedroom is not big and divided into two parts.

In front is a sofa and a coffee table. A graphene screen disguised as a wall. Bypassing the screen, there is a large bed, which continues the style and is still a retro design. It uses a lot of exquisite satin to create a piece of gold and white, which looks smooth and delicate, and is very soft when sitting on it.

The bedroom lighting caters to the theme, and it is also a soft white tone, with a yellowish tone. When you pull up the curtains to make the room darker, then turn on the lights, the entire bedroom is shrouded in luxury. The strongest feeling An Feng felt is that from the beginning of coming in, closing his eyes to opening his eyes, there will be luxury everywhere.

There is only the color of the floor and carpet, which can dilute the strong contrast between the wall and the head.

The luxury of Baroque is reflected in every corner, and even the top hotels will have an unmatched feeling. In order to create a jewel-like atmosphere, Anfeng spent 550 million US dollars. The decoration alone used more than 300 kilograms of gold, and the large amount of gold plating made the current brilliance.

After a tour, An Feng felt that the palace was nothing more than that.

It was not until they left the house and came to the outdoors and saw the green, the feeling of being covered by gold and white just now disappeared. The eyes looked at the world and returned to normal color. The most common thing they saw in the house was gold, and the furniture also reflected golden light under the light.

"I think it's enough to entertain guests." An Feng was very confident.

"It's like the Palace of Versailles I've visited, but the color is more lively, removing the empty space of the palace and very suitable for living." Joanna's opinion was the same. To be honest, I really felt like entering the palace to visit and was impressed by luxury.

Brandon said at the right time: "Mrs. If you decide, we have to hurry up and prepare if you have five days before the visit of the guests."

"You go and prepare, we decided to entertain guests here." An Feng nodded and said that the house was almost built. As for those sculptures that were more suitable for the discussion, we will talk about it later. Anyway, the guests will not focus on this, but the service must be prepared quickly.

Brandon has recruited ten servants, just in line with his ideal number of people to take care of the estate. He will prepare the kitchen ingredients, the jobs of chefs and assistants, the allocation of servant positions, the specifications of hospitality and the customs of guests within five days.
