Chapter 1404: Dismantling the Blind Box(2/2)

Although he is a billionaire, he thought that he might be able to build a few buildings of his own in first-tier cities in China, or even buy a few buildings overseas, but he never thought that he could own such a large area of ​​land.

Moreover, it owns such a large winery with famous French grape fields.

In particular, he has some knowledge of French wine, and he knows that Burgundy is a place that produces Conti, which is not much worse than Bordeaux that produces Lafite.

So Henri Lacamier's second gift was simply delivered to his heart and made him feel extremely comfortable.

He couldn't help but imagine the happy scene when he would take Qingzi on vacation in the future, and the two of them would stroll in the vineyard during the day and taste fine wine in the wine cellar at night.

Even though he had tried his best to restrain himself, he couldn't help but feel happy, and his favorable impression of this "old money man" whom he didn't really like very much increased by 10,000.

To be honest, he never thought that when he came to France this time, in addition to making money, he would also get such a large share of the industry for nothing.

And you don’t have to worry too much, you can just sit back and enjoy the benefits, and live a leisurely life like “old money”.

This gift was beyond imagination. To him, not only was it no worse than the first gift, but it was probably worth twice as much.

Let's just say that land prices in French countryside are cheap, but a winery that can produce fine wine costs tens of millions of francs. Adding in the Champs Elysées apartment, the two real estate properties can cost hundreds of millions.

Judging from the financial accounts, he has actually made no losses.

Henri Lacamier compensated for his financial losses quite generously and effectively, and he was quite good at doing what others wanted.

The gifts I gave him were very much in line with his wishes and made him very happy.

I have to say that this "old money" has a good style, and what he received as a gift were all high-quality assets.

But that's not the end yet, don't forget, there is a third document in the box.

Henri Lacamier took a sip of wine to moisten his throat, and finally did not forget about this item. He picked it up and handed it to Ning Weimin for inspection.

"And this, my friend. If a country house is not enough for a person who truly loves life, how can he not have a seaside villa? Especially when I heard Pierre say that you have taken a fancy to Saint-Tropez and want to do it there.

Are you looking for a vacation property? Are you buying real estate? Coincidentally, I also have several real estate properties in San Tropez. This document is the ownership of a 19th-century castle manor, which was built by Napoleon III.

, on the hill facing the Gulf of Pampelona, ​​has a large garden and pine forest. The total area is about ten hectares. The main building of this castle has as many as ninety rooms, which should be used to open a hotel.

It’s more appropriate…”

"What... an ancient castle? It's the French emperor's castle. Do you want to give it to me too? How can you be so embarrassed? Such real estate, and it's in Saint-Tropez, must be an important asset of your family, right?"

This time Ning Weimin really couldn't help but interrupt.

He felt that he was already a man who had seen the world, but he still did not expect that Henri Lacamier would give him a 19th-century castle.

To him, being a landowner was magical enough, but how could he have imagined that in the blink of an eye, he would become a lord again!

Oh, my God! These "old money" are all so dazzling!

Today he has learned what the real "Versailles" is!

This is called family heritage!

Unexpectedly, Henri Lacamier said without any concern, "Of course it was like this a long time ago. Not every Frenchman has such a rich historical heritage to inherit. But I have to say, entering

In modern society, the burden of such wealth has gradually become larger and more unbearable. Now I have no interest in keeping it in my own hands anymore. Because whether it is the taxes and fees for inheriting it or the daily maintenance fees,

It's a huge expense. Because of its age, this castle has never been put to any practical use in my hands, but I spend nearly a million francs on it every year, and it can only be used for appearance.

As for the maintenance of the castle, you can't see the inside of the castle. If you take it from me, you are actually doing me a favor. But if you want to actually use it, I'm afraid you will have to pay a lot of maintenance costs.

A lot of furniture and equipment would have to be added. It would cost at least tens of millions of francs to restore it to its former glory. So there is no comparison between this property and those two, not to mention that Saint-Tropez only lasts four months a year.

The peak season. Whether it is necessary or not, I suggest you think carefully. It is best to find a time to go to Saint-Tropez to have a look before making a decision. You may even want to find a professional to evaluate..."

These words are so true and completely pertinent.

Ning Weimin agreed with his mouth, but already made a decision in his heart.

He really needed to take a good look at such a thing, but no matter what the specific result was, he would decide whether to buy the castle or not.

He must appreciate Henri Lacamier's kindness and must express his solemn thanks.

Because now he has really discovered that the real strength of "Old Money" is not just having more money.

The wealth of resources we have is beyond the imagination of ordinary people, nor can it be bought with money.

So his biggest gain today was not the contents of these boxes, but being treated as a true friend by Henri Lacamier.
