Before buying this manor, Yang Jing already knew that because there was a vineyard in this manor, there was a small winery and a wine cellar in the manor, but Yang Jing didn't expect anything except for that. In addition to the wineries and cellars where wine is made and stored in the vineyards, there is actually such a wine cellar that stores many precious and famous wines.

　　 This also made Yang Jing suddenly realize that he seems to have forgotten another problem, that is, at this time, he can buy one of the eight largest French wineries.

　　Actually, in 1988, strictly speaking, there were only five French national treasure-class wineries, and the eight major wineries of later generations were not available at this time. Lafite, Latour, Margaux, Mouton and Obiang, these five wineries are the top national treasure wineries in France. As for the three wineries of European lawsuit, Baima and Patus at this time, It can't be compared with the five wineries in front.

　　 But even if it is only the five national treasure-level wineries, if you buy one of them for collection, it is also a very good thing.

At this time, the value of the five major wineries is not high, only 50 or 60 million US dollars, and because of the stock market crash, the capital behind the five major wineries is in a state of chaos, and several of them are even seeking to sell. Cash out the shares of the winery.

　　 Although the current five major wineries also have investment value, they are far less precious than later generations. Therefore, at the end of the 1980s, the owners of these five major wineries almost changed one by one.

　　 Since someone else bought these five wineries, why can’t you buy one?

In later generations, being able to become the owner of the five major wineries is quite a matter of face and status. Countless tycoons in Europe and the United States want shares in these five major wineries, but there are only a few top wineries in the world. , How can those who own the winery sell the winery in their hands?

　　In the future generations, no matter how rich you are, unless you throw money hard and desperately, the five major wineries will not be able to buy it at all.

　　 Yang Jing, who thought of these things in the wine cellar, didn't feel in the mood to stop here any more. He quickly walked out of the wine cellar, grabbed the phone and called Tomnitz.

Although mobile phones have begun to appear in the United States in 1988, the holdings are not very large. High phone charges are the main factor restricting the rapid expansion of this first-generation cellular mobile phone. Now even in the United States, it is only a few of the rich. Or important government officials can hold mobile phones. Real estate agents like Tomnitz, who were still pure hanging silk a few days ago, can wear a pager.

　　 Tomnitz answered the call soon.

　　 "Boss, I am now at the Boston airport preparing to fly to Europe, what do you want?" The background noise on the phone was very loud, and Yang Jing could hear Tomnitz in a place with a lot of people.

　　 "Donald, after arriving in Europe, inquire about the top five wineries in France. If you can, any one of the top five wineries can be bought directly. Well, the authorized price I gave you is less than 80 million US dollars."

　　"80 million US dollars? Oh, Maiga, boss, is this price too high? Lafite, the most valuable of the five major wineries, is now only more than 60 million and less than 70 million US dollars."

　　 Yang Jing interrupted this guy, "Donald, just do what I want. Remember, as long as you can buy a winery as soon as possible, you will make a contribution."

　　 "Well, boss, I promise to complete the task."

　　 Putting down the phone, Yang Jing's mind became somewhat settled. Although Tomnitz is not showing up, but the ability of this guy is absolutely beyond doubt, otherwise he would not have such a high achievement in future generations. With his ability and his own funds, he should be able to buy a winery.

The idea of ​​buying a winery somewhat disturbed Yang Jing's thoughts about visiting the manor carefully, but he has become the new owner of the manor after all, so he still thought about it for a while and continued to visit the manor. .

　　In fact, the manor is the same thing. It covers a large area and is not walled like a castle, nor is it highly defensive like a European castle.

　　 But after all, this is a manor that covers an area of ​​more than one square kilometer. Walking here still gives Yang Jing a feeling of visiting the park.

To the north of the main building of the manor is the farm, the vineyard is on the south of the main building, to the west is the Niagara River, and to the east is a small farm with several cows and dozens of sheep, some poultry, and several quarter horses. .

　　 Today’s weather is not so good, Yang Jing did not try to ride a horse, but wandered to the auxiliary building.

　　 Two of the four auxiliary buildings are connected to the main building, and the other two are about 30 meters away from the main building, with a corridor connecting with the main building in the middle.

The auxiliary building that Yang Jing came to was the one located on the north side of the main building. According to the butler from Sheyton, this auxiliary building was used by Alfred to research some technologies. It can be roughly equivalent to a private laboratory. .

　　 Alfred of the three DuPont ZTE brothers is not only a great family leader, he is actually an outstanding scientist. In this regard, Alfred is a bit like his great-grandfather Irene Dupont. You must know that after Pierre Dupont was expelled to the American continent by Napoleon, it was developed by Irene Dupont's gunpowder making technology.

　　As the great-grandson of Irene DuPont, Alfred inherited the character and scientific talent of his great-grandfather. During his time in charge of the DuPont family, he developed many high-end technologies for the DuPont family at the time.

Butler Sheyton said that when he was a child he often saw Alfred doing experiments in that annex building, and he heard some very strange "abnormal noises" from time to time. When he was a child, Butler Sheyton was very curious about the annex building, but Old Xie Dun, the father of Xie Dun butler, didn't let him go to the auxiliary building at all.

　　 It wasn't until after he was old that Xie Dun knew what the auxiliary building was for.

　　 Now, that auxiliary building has rarely been opened, and no one lives there except for the servants to clean it every day.

　　 Yang Jing walked into the auxiliary building along the corridor. This auxiliary building is not high, only two and a half stories high, but the floor area is not small. The auxiliary building was empty, and the room that was full of experimental equipment in the past can no longer see those experimental equipment, leaving only one empty house.

　　 A few rooms on the second floor still have some furniture, but Yang Jing has no interest in these furniture. As for the attic on the top floor, it was also empty and nothing.

　　 After a round upstairs, Yang Jing came to the basement of this auxiliary building.

　　 Compared to the empty space above, the basement which is also not small in size is undoubtedly a lot more crowded. The moisture-proof and ventilation of the basement are well done, at least Yang Jing didn't feel any dampness and coldness here. Probably because of this reason, there are a lot of things accumulated in this basement that have not been used for many years.

　　 Yang Jing flipped through these things and found that most of them were from the 1950s and 1960s. Of course, there are also some from the 30s and 40s.

　　 This reminds Yang Jing of the kind of work he did with fat guys when he was studying abroad to clean up **** for the rich.

　　 The things in this basement may be **** to the DuPont family, but if they are placed thirty years later, these things will be enough for those **** disposers to be able to see even the posterior molars.

For example, in this set of National Geographic magazines from 1890 to 1842, although the magazines of 1888 and 1889 are missing, the National Geographic magazine for 52 years is quite a lot. .

　　 If this set of magazines is placed thirty years later, let alone a flea market, it will be eligible even if it is sold directly, and it can definitely be sold at a very high price.

　　 There are also some books and magazines published in the early twentieth century. If they are placed thirty years later, they are equally valuable.

　　 There are many miscellaneous things in the basement. Some of them were obviously put in by servants later, but some were obviously put in the basement by the owner of the manor back then.

　　 For example, in a corner in the southwest of the basement, there are piles of damaged experimental equipment, some tables and chairs, and some sundries. Although these things are very shabby~lightnovelpub.net~, they are still placed in order. Obviously, these things should be some of the damaged things that Alfred did in the laboratory, and then he directed the servants to move them down. of.

　　 Among these things, Yang Jing also found some good things. For example, the two test benches, the writing desk and some chairs were all made of good teak.

　　 Teak is a high-end wood for high-end furniture. Although it is not as valuable as sea yellow and red sandalwood, it is definitely a precious wood. In the past, many royal families in Europe used teak to make their furniture.

　　 These few pieces of teak furniture that look very shabby are actually nothing wrong at all. The shabby is just a superficial appearance, and it can be rejuvenated with a little bit of attention. Especially since these pieces of furniture were used by Alfred, it is even more extraordinary.

　　 It's just that Yang Jing can't figure out why the DuPont family left these things here.

　　 Now, with the purchase of this manor, all these things belong to me.

This kind of buying a house and picking it up is Yang Jing’s favorite thing, although whether it is those old magazines and books or these teak furniture and those real antiques, the value is still quite different, but some former owners don’t want it. This kind of process is the most exciting to find valuable things in the trash.

　　 Especially when Yang Jing found a piggy bank in the drawer of the desk and found two golden coins from the piggy bank, Yang Jing’s excitement almost reached its climax.
