Ye Fan arrived at Aurus Airport in Norway, and Annie and Naya came to take advantage of the opportunity.
Anne's face was not pretty, and her smile was forced.
Na Ya had a happy face and smiled when she saw Ye Fan, as if she was seeing a relative.
"Mr. Ye, how are you enjoying yourself these days?" Naya smiled and helped Ye Fan carry the luggage and stuff it into the trunk of the commercial vehicle.
"Grandpa and other uncles and elders have been waiting at home for a long time."
"Really? That's really embarrassing." Ye Fan smiled and got into the car with Annie.
Seeing that Anne looked very poor, he asked with a faint smile: "Miss Anne, why do you look so haggard? Is it because you haven't had a good rest these days?"
"Yes." Annie nodded and asked in a low voice: "Ye, where is Miss Wu?"
"She is in Paris and didn't come with me." Ye Fan stretched out and leaned back comfortably on the back chair.
Annie smiled bitterly and said nothing.
Naya started the car and drove toward the outskirts of the city.
Aurus is the capital of Norway, a port city, and the most prosperous city in Norway, but its total population is less than one million.
Gulton's manor in Aurus is nearly 100 kilometers away from the city, and it takes an hour to drive.
It was already getting late at this time, and there were almost no cars on the highway.
Ye Fan looked at the seaside outside the window and exclaimed: "The ocean here is very clear, much better than the seaside."
"Mr. Ye doesn't know that Norway is now vigorously rectifying the marine environment and it has been greatly improved. Now the entire Aurus is covered with golden beaches, but the weather is too cold and it is not suitable to go to the sea for entertainment."
Naya said: "My father once said that when he moved here with his grandfather, the beach was polluted by waste oil, and seabirds and fish died in pieces, which made people's scalp numb.
How wonderful it is now, the sea water is clear and the temperature is pleasant, it is simply paradise on earth!”
"Well, it's indeed very good." Ye Fan smiled and said, "Coming here for retirement in the future is a good choice."
"It's more than good!" Naya suddenly became energetic and said quickly: "If Mr. Ye is willing, leave the green card matter to us.
The pace of life here is very slow, the national welfare is good, you can go out on a boat to go fishing, and there is a football league to watch, which is very lively..."
That's what Ye Fan said, which made Na Ya extremely excited.
Especially when it comes to football, he talks endlessly.
But come to think of it, Europeans are so obsessed with football that they even forget to eat and sleep.
Alas, this is the benefit of the welfare state. Only when people have money and no worries can they enrich their spiritual lives.
If it were left to China, where car and house loans would be overwhelming, where would there be money, time and energy to do such a thing?
“There’s a long way to go!”
Ye Fan's thoughts suddenly rose to the level of the country, and his expression gradually became serious.
Naya felt the change in Mark's mood and thought he was impatient, so he quickly changed the topic.
"Mr. Ye, you helped our family solve a serious problem this time. Grandpa has said several times that I must thank you very much."
"You're welcome, Count Gulton. After I took your money, I should get things done. We Chinese people keep our promises and we will do what we say!"
Ye Fan waved his hand and said with a smile: "By the way, how are the preparations for the spiritual pool going? Can it be used on time tomorrow?"
Banner made an appointment with him for five days. Tomorrow is the sixth day. There should be no surprises, right?
Naya smiled coquettishly, with a hint of bitterness on his face: "Well...Mr. Ye, we are friends, I won't hide it from you.
There are many people in the family who object to your use of the spirit pool."
"Huh?" Ye Fan frowned slightly: "Didn't we agree at the beginning? Is it possible that your family wants to regret it?"
"No, no, no, that's not what I meant." Naya held the steering wheel and shook his head repeatedly.
"Mr. Ye, my grandfather, Earl Gulton, gave birth to a total of four sons and three daughters.
My father is my grandfather's eldest son, Duke's father is the second son, but you passed away very early, and there are also third uncle, fourth aunt, fifth aunt, sixth aunt and seventh uncle.
Most of the family's industries, except for the military industry founded by my second uncle during his lifetime, which is under the name of Duke, the rest are controlled by the elders of this generation of our family.
My uncles and aunts don't know you very well, so they were a little bit critical when you proposed using the family spirit pool."
Naya spoke in great detail, but Mark's brows furrowed deeper and deeper.
"Criticisms? Naya, what is the attitude of Earl Gulton and your father?"
"My father is naturally on Mr. Ye's side." Naya finished expressing his position, and then said with a wry smile.
"Grandpa was also willing to let Mr. Ye use a spiritual pond from the beginning.
But in the past two days, Duke teamed up with several other uncles and aunts to talk to Grandpa privately, taking turns to persuade him.
As for that, grandpa is a little hesitant now."
"Haha, hesitation?" Ye Fan laughed, "If you regret it, just regret it. Why do you need to say it so beautifully?"
"Mr. Ye, don't worry." Naya then said: "My father has repeatedly explained the pros and cons to grandpa, otherwise grandpa would not hesitate.
Before setting off, my father told me that I must make Mr. Ye firm in his decision to leave.
The preparations at Lingchi have been completed and can be used directly by Mr. Ye.
As long as Mr. Ye is resolute and is not moved by the conditions offered by those uncles and aunts, Grandpa can't say anything."
"That's it!" Ye Fan nodded and smiled: "Yes, Mr. Banner is very particular! Naya, thank you very much."
"No, these are what we should do." Na Ya said with a smile: "Mr. Ye made a huge promise, so of course we must keep our promise.
Maybe I can continue to cooperate with Mr. Ye in the future!"
"Well, you can have this." Ye Fan smiled, held his head with both hands, and leaned gently on the back chair.
He has no shortage of money in his life and has no interest in those yellow and white things.
The Gurton family's spiritual pool is a good thing, and he will never give it up easily.
It would be fine if Naya's uncles and aunts were easier to talk to. If they dare to make things difficult again, Mark would not mind teaching them a lesson and letting them know their position!
The road to Gulton Villa Manor is smooth, and the car will arrive at the manor in less than an hour.
This is a large villa estate covering hundreds of acres.
The front yard garden alone is the size of a football field.
There are more than a dozen villas scattered in the depths of the garden, and the whole manor can't be seen at a glance.
Naya drove a commercial vehicle to the door of the first large villa. The servant at the door immediately came to greet them and helped them open the door.
"Mr. Ye, we're here!" Na Ya got out of the car and took Ye Fan into the villa.
This villa is very luxuriously decorated and full of the atmosphere of European medieval aristocracy.
In the hall, more than a dozen people were looking forward to it.
Most of them are quite old, most of them are old men in their fifties or sixties.
The leader was an old man carrying a cane. He was short and a little fat, his hair had turned gray, he didn't look particularly good, and he stood a little shaky.
Beside the old man, there was a young man supporting him on each side, one of whom was Duke.
"Grandpa, he is Ye Fan." Duke whispered in the old man's ear.
"Haha, you are young and have a lot of potential!"
The old man nodded with a smile and walked towards Ye Fan, "Mr. Ye, I have admired you for a long time!"
Ye Fan hurriedly greeted him, holding the fist-holding salute of a Chinese warrior, "I've seen the earl."
"You are welcome."
The old man looked pleasant, shook hands with Ye Fan, and then introduced him to the clan members behind him.
Ye Fan was greeted one by one, perfectly showing the polite and courteous warrior style of the East.
Both sides spoke very calmly, especially Banner, who gave Ye Fan a lot of high praise, making Ye Fan a little embarrassed.
In fact, Ye Fan didn't expect that the other party would actually value him so much.
Logically speaking, even if the Gulton family does not have the glory it once had, it is still a powerful force in Europe relying on its foundation.
Let alone a warrior who is nine times the limit, even a warrior who is ten times the limit will give them face.
But Earl Gulton actually welcomed him with his whole family, and the mere meeting was so grand!
Earl Gulton invited Ye Fan to take a seat in the study, and the elderly elders also followed him in.
Annie, Naya and other young people all went back to their rooms. They were still young and not qualified to participate in the following conversation.
Of course, out of Duke!
Ye Fan was sitting alone on the guest sofa in the study room. Opposite him were a group of important figures from the Gulton family. He suddenly felt like a grand banquet.
The eyes of these people were not as respectful as they had seen me before, but instead showed a hint of pride.
I guess I was too humble just now, which made them feel that I was easy to bully.
"Ahem!"
Ye Fan was too lazy to ponder their thoughts, coughed twice, smiled at Count Gulton and asked: "Your Majesty, I wonder when you can help me arrange the spiritual pool matter tomorrow.
I have been in Europe for a week, and there are still some things that need to be dealt with in China, so I am embarrassed to bother you for a long time.
Therefore, let’s complete our commitment as soon as possible!”
"No rush, no rush." Earl Gulton waved his hand with a smile.
"I have long heard that Mr. Ye has reached the limit of nine times at a young age. He has always wanted to make friends. Now that we have finally met, I must show my friendship as a landlord and express my admiration."
Although Count Gulton spoke in Italian, it had an ancient Chinese context. Not only did Ye Fan not feel strange when he heard it, but he felt a little warm.
"Lord Earl, I don't dare disturb you to rest your body and mind. I understand your kindness!" Ye Fan immediately replied.
"Grandpa, Mr. Ye doesn't seem to give you face!" Duke on the side suddenly smiled and said to Ye Fan.
"Mr. Ye, it's rare for you to come to Europe and help our Gulton family solve such a big trouble. If I don't thank you properly, others will say that our Gulton family lacks etiquette and is ungrateful!"
"That's not the case." Ye Fan shook his head and said calmly: "It's better to help me arrange the matter of the spiritual pool as soon as possible! Otherwise, if it is delayed for a long time, the saying that your Gulton family does not keep its promise will be spread."
