Seeing her son's surprised look, Lina said with a smile: "You are not at home for so long, I can only find hobbies by myself, and you give me so much money, I don't know how to spend it, so I bought it after thinking about it." horses, and expanded the stables several times. Now there are twelve stables in the front, which can raise more than 20 horses.
The other three sides are reserved for later use. If there are more descendants of horses in the future, those three sides can be expanded, and I built a racecourse behind the stables.
Speaking of this, my mother is very happy. Do you know how much a small farm of more than 300 acres next to us costs?Haha, it cost less than £80 to buy."
"80 pounds?" William was surprised by the price, and asked happily, "It's so cheap. Doesn't that mean that the land around here has fallen by more than half?"
Lina smiled and said, "That's right, son, you don't know that many farmers around us are going bankrupt. As long as they buy it with cash, the nearby farmers will definitely be willing to sell their farms and live in other places. Didn't you say, William, that you want to buy all the nearby land? I think now is a good opportunity."
William has always had the idea of buying land. After thinking about it, the current price is already very low. Although it will fall after a while, the decline has not been large, and taking advantage of the bearish market, most farmers are struggling to support it. He is good at buying in large quantities, and such opportunities don't come along all the time.
"Well, Mom, I will notify the Swiss bank to deal with this matter, and it is best to buy all the land around here."
Lina said in surprise: "No, if you buy them all, there are 3000 acres around our castle. If you add the area near the small river opposite, it will be tens of thousands of acres. Would it be too big? A farm is not a ranch, and how many people we had to hire to work at that time, the city of Oxford might not agree to this deal."
Thinking about the general situation of the land near the castle, William thought about it silently, and said with a sigh: "Well, tens of thousands of acres seems too big, so you can buy as much as you can!
However, I will definitely buy the 3000 acres around the castle. I hope that all around us will become the private domain of our Devonshire family, which is good for our security and privacy."
The son cared about her safety, which made Lina very happy, and said happily: "It's just that the 3000 acres in the old castle will be fine. If you want to buy it, you can sign the contract tomorrow. The owner of the farm lost a lot of money investing in the stock market." Money, he came to me a few days ago and asked when you will come back, he looks like he urgently needs a sum of money to pay back to the bank, maybe he can buy it for 500 million pounds.”
"So cheap? I remember that Anthony told me a while ago that it seemed to be 1000 million or 800 million pounds"
"Of course, I don't even look at who else will buy land here besides you. Those who want to buy land don't have the strength now, and those who have the strength don't like Oxford as a country place. Hmph, that guy wanted to buy land last month. The price, baby, we will bid 500 million pounds, whether to sell it or not, now he is begging us."
William calculated in his mind, 500 million to buy 3000 acres, doesn't that mean that an acre is only less than 1700 pounds, God, this is really cheap, there is no problem at all if it increases several times in ten years.
Thinking of William nodding without hesitation, buy it, buy it for sure, buy as much as you can, think of Margaret Mitchell's famous book "Gone with the Wind", the heroine Scarlett's father looks at the dusk shrouded in the distance Tara Manor in the Tara Manor, said a classic quote to Scarlett.
"Land is the only thing in the world worth working for, fighting for, and dying for, because it's the only thing that lasts forever."
The wealth in the stock market is all fictitious, the money you get is real, and the land is a real thing. It is the most valuable wealth, and it is also the source of wealth creation. In England, land is permanent ownership.
The more land you own, the more power you have. It affects votes, affects public environmental resources, and is more related to the livelihood of countless people.
Thinking of these, William immediately made a decision, he would buy as much as he could, even if the price was higher than the current price, he would accept it, "I will call Anthony and ask their law firm to cooperate with the Swiss National Bank to settle the land matter." , Mom, take me to see your new pet."
"Well, if we buy this 3000 acres of land, we will be worthy of the ancestors of the Devonhill family. This land belonged to our family before your great-grandfather, William, mother is proud of you, you are the best".
Lena happily talked to William, and pulled him down and patted his head, "God, William, you are so tall now, mom didn't expect you to grow up so quickly, hey, you are still cute when you were young, Come on, I'll show you that Arabian horse."
William looked at his mother furiously for no reason. Did that offend her?Seeing his mother leaving him and walking away, he shook his head and followed into the stables. Not to mention that the new stables were completely different from the previous ones. After walking happily, he saw a completely black horse. The Arabian horse, William was amazed by the horse at first sight, it is so beautiful.
chapter 223 two hundred twenty three
Arabian horses are one of the oldest horse breeds in the world and the first to establish a blood registration system. Their lightness and compactness endow them with strength, speed and extraordinary stamina.
The special demeanor structure allows Arabian horses to be competent in various equestrian events, especially in long-distance endurance races, and they are the kings who do their part.Adept in Olympic sports like dressage and showjumping. Arabian horses are also excellent family companion animals due to their high intelligence and loving nature.
William fell in love with the three-year-old colt at first sight. This colt, which his mother Lena jokingly called Devonhill II, has a strong body and strong stride, and he likes it very much He is close to human beings, and when he sees his mother coming, he keeps shaking his head and tail at his mother, bumping against the guardrail lightly from time to time, neighing and trying to get out of the stable.
The mother was so amused that she laughed and opened the guardrail. As soon as the pony came out, it wagged its tail even more happily. She walked to the mother's side a few steps, and pushed Lina with her horse's face from time to time, wanting to go out for fun. Wenhir II said with a smile: "William, do you want to try riding it?"
Forget it, the thought of the name of this horse made William feel weird, he shook his head and said, "No, mom, let it be your exclusive mount. Although the Arabian horse is very beautiful, it is not suitable for a person of my height. It's still a little small.
I like the Akhate gold horse, the sweat-blood horse in the legend of the oriental people. I heard that there are only less than 3000 horses in the world. Most of them are in Turkmenistan now, and they seem to be inexpensive. Some sources say that England’s thoroughbred horses are Sweathorse is mixed with several other horses. "
Thinking about the legends I knew in the Great Heavenly Dynasty in my previous life, my deep love for blood-sweat horses, and the soaring price of blood-sweat horses in the next few years, raising sweat-blood horses can be both a hobby and money. The more William thinks, the more he feels It's a good idea to sweat blood,
Looking forward to the scene when I raised a large group of bloody horses in the future, and in the future when the bloody horses are mentioned in the report, I have to mention him as the owner of the horse farm. Other rich people only buy one or two horses, but myself There are dozens of hundreds of horses of sweat and blood, and the thought of William makes the blood boil.
After making up his mind, William told his mother that he would look up the phone number immediately, contact a professional brokerage company, let them select horses for him, and buy good horses in large batches while the market price is not expensive.
But before William took a few steps, he heard his mother's voice, "Okay, you don't need to look for the number, I have a professional dealer's phone number, their company is the largest horse trading company in England, Devonhill II I bought it from them.
If you want to buy a horse, tell them what you want, and they will send someone to deliver a picture album to your door for you to choose. If you choose a horse, it will be delivered to your home and wait for your confirmation before trading. It is a one-stop service, and you don’t need to go out to find it yourself. "
Overjoyed, William took out his mobile phone and called the phone number given by his mother. After a few beeps, he heard, "Hello, this is Dali Horse Industry, what can I do for you."
The voice was quite pleasant, and William said: "Hi, I'm William Devonhill, and I want to buy some sweat horses. Does your company have sweat horses in England?"
"Devonhill, Devonhill of Oxford?" exclaimed the operator. "Excuse me, sir. Are you Mr. William Devonhill?"
"Haha, that's right, if there is no other William Devonhill in Oxford, it would be me." William was secretly delighted at the fuss of the girl on the other side of the phone.
"Sorry, Mr. Devinhill, I was too surprised to receive your call. I'm sorry, I was rude. Of course, our company has ahate gold horses, which are hard-blooded horses. Are you sure about the horse you want to buy?" Do you have any requirements? We will select for you according to your requirements, and after the selection, we will make albums and videos and send specialists to serve you.”
"Very well, all I want is a horse that has just grown or is about to grow. It should be strong and beautiful, and it should be red. You can figure out the rest. You know who I am. I only want a good horse, and as long as sweat and blood ".
"No problem, I've made a note, sir, we will sort out the materials and videos immediately, and we will arrive at Devonhill Castle in Oxford to meet you in 2 hours, is that all right?" the receiver said carefully.
"OK, I'm at home today, don't let me down, I look forward to your arrival, goodbye" William said.
"I promise our company will satisfy you, see you in 2 hours, bye, sir,"
Hanging up the phone, William stood by the guardrail, watching his mother riding Devonhill II running at a constant speed on the racecourse in the stables. The Arabian horse is still very beautiful, but it is a little smaller, and the tallest About 1.52 meters, most of them are about 1.46, which is indeed a bit short for William, who is already 1.9 meters tall.
However, it seems that the sweat horse is not tall, only five or six centimeters taller than Alabama, but who makes William, who was from the Celestial Dynasty in his previous life, like it?It's hard to buy a heart with money, plus the price after sweat and blood, if you don't buy it, you can buy it.
Standing by the fence with her mother for an hour, Lena handed it over to a professional horse trainer after Devonhill II was sweating all over.
It seems that mother really likes horses. On the way back to the castle, Lena kept talking about horses. She wanted to have a horse of her own when she was a child. How did she choose Devonhill II a few days ago? How to communicate with it.
William happily listened to his mother's words, and returned to the castle without knowing it. When she got home, Lena ignored William's care of the horse and went to wash up on her own.
William, who had just returned home and had nothing to do, told his servant that if anyone came looking for him, he would take them to the living room and wait. After the order, William walked to the back garden and sat on a round chair drinking coffee and reading today's newspaper.
Half an hour later, William received a message from his servant that the people from the horse industry company had arrived.
