Otherwise, it's too rude not to say,

Maybe it will also cause dissatisfaction with old nobles like Mrs. Lena, thinking that the Stark family is really an upstart."

'Damn', Stark suddenly felt that Pepper was slapping him in the face, and he was poisoned by the English nobles.

Before he could complain, Little Pepper walked back and forth and muttered, "God, what kind of gift should I prepare for you so that it doesn't look shabby but also tasteful?"

Stark rolled his eyes violently, but after hearing what Little Pepper said, he had to really think about William's mother again.

After all, the whole world knows that Lina paid no less than those single mothers in order to raise William and send him to college.

After William became rich, it was not considered to be obedient to his mother, but Lena had a fund of billions of pounds, not to mention,

For Lena's hobby, she directly bought the team and invested hundreds of millions of pounds to build a new stadium.

What's more, in order for the team to win the championship, he would rather keep the treatment equipment that can sell at least one billion US dollars a year and speed up the recovery of trauma, and keep it secret for two full years, only for the players of his own team to use.

It wasn't open to the outside world until the team really won the championship.

And to be honest, Americans are actually quite envious of England.

Stark used to despise the nobles, that is, he felt that he was richer than the top ten nobles in England combined, so why should he envy you?

But now facing an obvious asset, the Devonhill family, which is richer than the Stark Group, he is not so confident.

After all, what Westerners talk about is money.

Standing on the virtual imaging platform, after thinking for a while, he suddenly said, "Jarvis, help me show the history of the Devonhill family."

Immediately, a large series of materials and photos, or oil paintings are displayed in the virtual image.

After Stark saw that Lena's father and grandfather's generation sold off a lot of antiques,

Stark smiled and said to Pepper, "It's no secret that William likes antiques from the Celestial Dynasty, and her mother should also care about those family antiques that have been left behind."

Little Pepper immediately nodded with a smile, "Understood, I'll go to the antique middleman and ask."

But it is not a big problem for them to buy antiques from the Celestial Dynasty, but it is not so easy to buy antiques related to the Devonhill family.

For Lena, there is a son who likes antiques from the Chinese dynasty, who often brings antiques to his home and museums to remind her,

She would never think of recycling, even the antiques related to the Devonhill family were impossible.

In addition, Abigail, the family's chief steward, was the head of the museum at the beginning, and her double doctorates are also related to cultural relics.

During the first two years with William, in order to please Lena, she spent a lot of thought and recovered many items related to William's grandfather and Henry Devonhill.

When Lina could find everything from his father's and grandfather's generation, he would have collected almost all of them.

She turned her attention to the objects of the Devonhill family, which were even older.

Over the years, basically as long as an antique middleman came to her, and the price did not exceed the bottom line that she and Abigail negotiated, she would buy it directly.

Even some things related to her mother, even if they were twice as expensive, Lina would not hesitate.

Therefore, there is a super bully, and everyone keeps the antiques related to the Devonhill family in their hands tightly covered.

Just waiting for Lina to buy an antique again at a price higher than the estimated price, the value of the objects in their hands will rise accordingly.

Fortunately, Lina herself is not stupid, and there is Abigail as a staff member by her side. Otherwise, if she let go of the purchase, it would not be double or triple, but ten times possible.

Therefore, Stark originally thought that he would be willing to bid, and it would be very simple to buy an antique with high value and important to the Devonhill family.

But when he and Xiaojiao looked at the virtual image, a pair of oil paintings of Lena's great-grandmother, only 92-73 centimeters,

Stark scolded extremely displeasedly, "Are these people crazy? It's just an oil painting painted by a famous painter in England, and it's only a hundred years old.

How dare you ask for nine million dollars? "

Little Pepper also said with a look of disbelief, "I, I have asked someone, and the real value of this painting may not even be worth [-] million U.S. dollars.

But who, who made this painting belong to Mrs. Lena's great-grandmother, and she is also the most famous painter among the painters who helped them paint in the Devonhill family."

"Then why is this painting still on the market?" After Stark finished speaking, he immediately understood, "It's William's mother who thinks the price is too outrageous?"

"No, that's right," Little Pepper nodded helplessly, "When this painting first appeared six years ago, Mrs. Lina paid a price of three million dollars.

But the owner of the oil painting, at that time, asked for five million, and the two sides remained in a stalemate.

Six years later, the price kept rising to nine million.

And if the other party says we don’t buy [-] million dollars, maybe we’ll have to wait another ten years, and as Mrs. Lina’s grades get older, the owner of the painting even dares to ask for [-] million dollars.”

"God," Stark said, shaking his head helplessly while covering his head, "These bastards are really determined to get nostalgic as people get older.

It made me feel that the price of [-] million US dollars is really not impossible."

Little Pepper hesitated, "Then, should I buy it or not?"

"Is there no other choice?" Stark said angrily, "I'd rather spend [-] million dollars to buy something worth [-] million than be laughed at."

"Sorry, no," Little Pepper shook his head, "The Devonhill family is not famous in history, except for the rumor that there were Templars in the first few generations,

The Earl of Oxford behind, it is not wrong to say that they are unknown.

And the really expensive ones, except for some things that represent the history of the Devonhill family,

Everything else has to do with Lena's parents and grandparents."
