Chapter 522: 【Michelle Manor】

   A golf tram was parked not far in front of the gate, and a few people boarded the tram and drove slowly. The real estate agent sat beside Yang Yong, and the smiling Yang Yong introduced various plants in the manor. Due to the age, century-old trees can be seen everywhere. What's special is that the central axis is paved with cobblestones up to ten meters wide.

   On both sides of the cobblestone road, plane trees are planted, and these plane trees are more than one meter thick and have a history of more than a hundred years. It can be compared with the famous Linden Street. The cobblestone central axis road is more than 2,000 meters long. A hundred-year-old plane tree is planted every ten meters, and the plane tree is very dense and becomes a natural umbrella cover. No one can get sunburnt from the scorching Los Angeles sun anywhere on the cobblestone road in the center.

   The one-kilometer-long road leads to the main building of Michelle Manor at one end, and rushes to the main gate of the manor at the other end. The road is straight and straight, and in the center of the manor is a small garden. Although the garden is not large, the shapes of various plants are very beautiful.

   There is also a musical fountain pool with a diameter of 20 meters in the middle. The musical fountain will automatically sound every hour on the hour, and the music at each hour is a different symphony.

  After bypassing the fountain, there are four red brick buildings, which should have been under the climbing plants such as creeper ivy. The door of the building is made of wood, and then it is two meters wide. Walking into the house gives people a very refreshing feeling. After all, the sun in Los Angeles is hot and the temperature outside is very high, but this old building is very cool. Although there is no furniture in the house, it looks very neat, and the floor is covered with black and white marble floor tiles.

  The golden decoration of the white walls, especially around the hall, whether on the ceiling or on the walls, will be painted with various scenes from heaven. The most popular character is the angel. It seems that the owner of this house, General Michelle, is a very loyal Catholic.

  The area of ​​the central hall is not small, reaching 250 square meters, which can hold more than 200 people at the same time. The square hall is surrounded by stairs on the left and right sides of the front, winding up to the second floor.

  The left side of the hall is the kitchen, the right side is the living room, and there is a very spacious corridor after going up to the second floor. There are rooms on both sides of the corridor, and each of these rooms is very small, only more than 20 square meters. The living facilities inside are also very simple. There is only one bathroom and one bedroom. At a glance, you can tell that it is the room where servants live.

  The third floor is the guest room, and the fourth floor is the study and master bedroom. The structure of the house is square, and the number of rooms has reached 120. The area of ​​each floor has also reached 1000 square meters, after all the rooms on the second and third floors have been transformed. The exhibition hall of the museum can be formed, which remains intact for the fourth floor of the house, where the museum director and all staff rest and work.

  The four-story above-ground building and the two-story underground building are basically the same as the general century-old buildings. In addition to the wine cellar, it is the storage room, which can become the warehouse of the museum after a little transformation. This makes Yang Yong satisfied that behind the building is the back garden, and there is actually a small lake of more than 0.5 acres.

   Surrounded by greenery, the entire estate except for the central building covering an area of ​​1.5 acres. All the public green spaces are all photocopied in the sea of ​​green plants, which is very rare in the hot city of Los Angeles. It is very suitable for adults and children to come to the shade of these green plants to play and eat lunch. If some docile wild animals are raised among these green plants, it is a very good idea and a selling point that is very attractive to children.

   Of course, due to occupational diseases, Yang Yong will carefully observe any old buildings with perspective. It is a pity that the century-old building with the upper and lower six floors has any organs, let alone the existence of underground vaults.

   But Yang Yong likes this red brick building surrounded by green plants very much, plus it is located in the city center and close to the sea. Three kilometers away is the Maritime Museum of Los Angeles, which is very strategically located, only ten minutes from the port to the building. It is very convenient to transfer materials, so although the asking price of this building has reached 350 million US dollars, Yang Yong also decided to buy it.

   As the saying goes, it is impossible to pay as much as the real estate agent asks. Buying and selling needs to be negotiated to decide. As the real estate industry boss of the Yang family, real estate negotiation has always been within the scope of Charlie's responsibility. And Charlie is so cunning and arrogant that even the most perfect building can pick out a single fault for you. And it also leaves you speechless, the most important focus is that this building is a protected building, and it is not allowed to change any aspect of the building's external characteristics.

   In other words, the surface of the house cannot be altered in any way. Since it is a protected building, it is more stringent to buy it as a private property. The focus of the formal negotiation After more than ten hours of marathon negotiations, the other party finally let go, and Yang Yong finally bought the five-acre seaside building in downtown Los Angeles for $250 million.

  The contract was signed after the house was bought, and the building will always be the private property of the Yang family. Of course, it is still the same sentence. Since the building is a protected building with a history of more than 100 years, no changes are allowed to the appearance of bricks and tiles. Even repairs require finding a qualified antique restoration company to restore and replace any building components.

   After buying the house, Yang Yong hurriedly called people to start the renovation work. The most important thing was to renovate the building with more than two floors and the two-story basement. The only thing that remains unchanged is the lobby and conference room kitchen on the first floor, which makes it a little confusing. It is okay to keep the conference room and lobby, so why keep the kitchen.

  Because Yang Yong has a whimsical way of playing, that is the private gold pirate museum of the Yang family. Among these green plants and close to the seaside, there are trees and small lakes, it is very suitable for the whole family to come here with children to play. The money for children and women is the best to earn, and the purpose of keeping the kitchen is to open a Chinese restaurant with a unique flavor and make some Chinese delicacies, which will also increase an income.

   and the decoration company Mickey Souvenirs have an old relationship. The two sides cooperated very happily, so the contract was signed the next day. Three companies, including Penn Security Design Company, moved into the manor and started the renovation of the Golden Pirate Museum.

  The only constant is the exterior view of the main building, and the interior is completely remodeled and renovated. The entire Gold Pirates Museum cost a staggering $30 million to renovate, and another $20 million to make memorabilia. There is also a close cooperation with the Los Angeles Zoo to purchase some more docile animals.

  For example, peacocks, sika deer, squirrels, swans and other small animals are kept in the manor for children to visit. In addition, some remaining funds are to transform the green plants of the entire manor, such as pruning and fertilizing.
