Chapter Three Hundred and Ninety-Four Fame and Fortune and Kensington Garden Street Manor
More updates for teng1861’s big rewards, thank you.
Wilson turned to look at William and Abigail like gods, and murmured in a low voice, "This is the Akhal Tekina horse. It has never broken the event record at this racecourse or the St. Regis Stakes."
Hartey Golden Horse".
And seeing how relaxed Red Rabbit was when he crossed the finish line, it was no surprise to win the Breeders' Cup in the 2,000-meter race. "God, it seems I really should go to William's racecourse."
Thinking of this, Wilson walked up to William and said, "William, you are God. I am going to your horse farm to pick a mare, and it must be a mare that is pregnant with Red Rabbit's child. If you don't agree to it, I will
Just stay in the castle and don’t leave.”
The sound of applause began to ring out in the private room hall.
"Congratulations, Mr. Devonshire. The Devonshire family is now a member of England's champion horse family. God, today is really great. This is a real spurt of work and success."
.
"That's right, that's right, Lao Li, what you said is so right." Several guests from Tianchao praised the good words as if they were free of charge.
William was in a good mood after hearing this, "Hahaha, thank you, thank you all, it seems that today is indeed a good day, right?"
Everyone understood and said, "Yes, today is indeed a good day."
Next, William reached a verbal agreement with Tianchao's guests. From now on, the new stadium and supporting ancillary facilities will be contracted to a company registered in London of a Tianchao group for a price of 300 million pounds. The specific contract will be handed over to the lawyer.
After negotiating the contract, everyone was in a very good mood. Wilson and the leading manager exchanged glances from time to time. It seemed that they had an agreement, but William did not care about this. During the project, there would be three quality supervision and appraisal agencies supervising the work at the same time.
, guaranteed to be no problem.
.......
Half an hour later, under the guidance of the private room manager, William took Abigail and Wilson, who was watching the excitement, and the Chinese guests arrived at the podium.
As soon as Red Rabbit saw William, he neighed and ran to William, nuzzled William with his horse's head and said, "Good boy, good boy", which made William hold Red Rabbit's horse head and laugh.
After receiving the trophy and taking photos, William ignored the reporter's questions and gave all the opportunities to Wilson. He said to Old Neil, the excited racecourse training director, "Well done, Old Neil. It seems I was the first choice."
You made the right choice to be the training director.”
After saying that, he took out the 700,000 pound bonus check he had just received and handed it to Old Neil, "Double your bonus and take the rest back to the racecourse."
"Thank you, thank you boss," Old Neil took the check and said with excitement, "There will be many first-level events in the next two months. Can Red Rabbit participate?"
William thought for a while and said, "It's up to you. As long as it doesn't affect Red Rabbit's participation in the American Triple Crown next year, forget it if it's too far away."
Once the race starts, it is indispensable to continue competing. On the one hand, the horse and rider accumulate experience and tacit understanding. On the other hand, most of the income of the rider and horse trainer depends on bonuses. If you don’t let the horses race, you will not be able to retain good riders and trainers.
Horseman's.
Moreover, Red Rabbit has already won a Triple Crown title, so William will never let go of the American Breeders' Cup Triple Crown next year. The owner and the horse of the Triple Crown can be written into the history of horse racing together.
After the race, the TV news and the English newspapers early the next morning were full of news that Red Rabbit won the championship by 18 lengths in a record-breaking time of 2 minutes, 59 seconds and 43 seconds.
As the horse owner, William became famous again this time. It was spread throughout England that William was the illegitimate son of God, and all good things happened to him.
Not only that, when the news broke that William had built his own racecourse at Devonhill Castle in Oxford, and that except for one of Lena's Arabian horses, the other 200 or so horses in the racecourse were all high-quality sweat horses.
The price of the sweat horse in the market immediately soared, rising by more than 40%. It really fulfilled the saying that fame and fortune will come together.
After seeing off the Chinese guests and bidding farewell to Wilson, William drove Abigail to Kensington Garden Street, "Boss, this manor covers an area of 19 acres, about the size of a football field and a half. It is Garden Street."
The largest estate outside Kensington Palace,
The main building has 27 rooms, 6 living rooms, 2 studies, a large kitchen and 4 small kitchens, 31 bathrooms, a two-story basement, 16 outdoor parking spaces and 8 indoor parking spaces, a lawn tennis court, and an indoor
It is a general-purpose outdoor swimming pool, but I recommend that this swimming pool be overhauled or rebuilt.”
William nodded and said, "Well, ask the designer to take a look at this. If it can be overhauled, do it. Rebuilding is not only time-consuming but also troublesome."
"This," Abigail hesitated, "Boss, do you really leave this matter to me? Don't you want to report it to Mrs. Lina?"
"Haha", William twisted Abigail's nose, "It's up to you."
"Asshole", Abigail patted William's arm, "You know that Mrs. Lina is not fake about me, you are making it clear that you will make me suffer."
"This is an opportunity for you to please my mother," William said with a smile.
"I don't want to do this. Anyway, I haven't thought about getting married. There is no need to please Mrs. Lina all the time." Abigail rolled her eyes at William.
"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. What does my mother think of the manor?" William changed the subject.
"its not bad, right".
"Then buy it. Even if you don't live in it in the future, it's not a bad investment."
After William and Abigail drove to the manor, they saw the owner of the manor and Anthony who came over. After shaking hands and saying hello, William directly asked, "How much discount can I get by paying in cash in one lump sum?"
"Mr. Devonshire, 160 million US dollars is already the lowest price. You may not know it,,,".
"Stop," William interrupted the real estate manager, pointing to the bench in the manor and said, "You can go to rest now, or ask your company to find someone else."
"Understood, sir." The real estate manager immediately shut up. The deal was concluded, and with his commission, he could buy a house of more than 100 square meters in London. "Call me if you need anything."
William smiled and said to the owner of the manor, "Pete, there are not many people who can pay more than 100 million US dollars in cash at once. Am I right?"
Peter thought for a long time and said helplessly, "Okay, you are right, 150 million will be paid in one lump sum, and today this manor is yours."
"Okay, deal, Bank of England or Swiss National Bank?" William asked, reaching out his hand to shake Peter's hand.
The conclusion of the business deal made Peter feel very good. He joked, "If I could, of course I would choose the Swiss National Bank. In this period, I can pay less tax if I can."
"OK", it took a few minutes for William to call Felix, the private account manager of Swiss National Bank, and transfer 150 million US dollars to a specific account. As soon as the name of the owner of the manor is changed, the money will be transferred to Peter.
in the account.
After receiving the call from the bank, Peter happily extended his hand and said, "It's a pleasure to work with you, Mr. Devonshire."
