Chapter 4 A Beautiful Small Town
Guo Xiaoxiang's car is a Volkswagen Golf that is definitely over fifteen years old.
Needless to say, this car is naturally a used car that Guo Xiaoxiang bought after coming to the UK. According to Fatty himself, this car cost him £600...
Although top luxury cars such as Rolls-Royce, Bentley, Aston Martin, Jaguar were all born in the UK, ordinary people in the UK rarely drive local brands of cars. On the contrary, British people prefer to drive American cars, German cars or even RB cars.
Just like the Ford Fiesta and Ford Focus are the two cars with the largest number of licenses in the UK, and Volkswagen Golf has a lot of licenses in the UK. Therefore, there are still many used cars for these models in the UK, and the prices are quite cheap.
In some aspects, Yang Jing still admires Guo Xiaoxiang, a fat man, for example, in terms of independence and autonomy.
If Guo Xiaoxiang is in China, he will be a second-generation member. Not to mention his real estate company, even if he looks at the provinces where their hometown is, he will be a well-known number one real estate company.
As the only son of the Guo family, Guo Xiaoxiang will never miss money. But after he came to the UK, he almost never received any funding from his family. He eats, drinks, defecations, and sleeps here, and almost all the money he earns himself.
A Chinese study in the UK, the tuition fee is nearly 10,000 pounds a year. Including the cost of eating, drinking, defecation, sleeping, and sleeping, it is definitely 20,000 pounds a year.
However, Guo Xiaoxiang has been in London for almost six years. Except for the expensive sponsorships from his family when he first came, he basically didn't spend any money from his family in the other few years. Even the start-up capital, he only spent a small part, and Datou's guy saved it.
This super-old golf was well maintained by the fat man, and at least it could run at 80 miles on the M4 expressway.
After leaving London, Guo Xiaoxiang and Yang Jing walked along the M4 Expressway, which is the closest road from London to Fishgard. If it weren't for the rush, Guo Xiaoxiang wouldn't have taken this road.
Although the M4 expressway is short, some sections of this expressway are charged. For example, just passing through the Severn Bridge, the longest river in the UK, the Severn River, is 6.6 pounds. Therefore, including other toll sections, it takes tens of pounds tolls to be carried out for the 260-mile journey...
In fact, it is also possible to take the M40 and A40 highways, which is the so-called North Line. There is no charge for taking this route, but this route is 310 miles, and the road conditions are not as good as the M4 expressway.
If you are in China, it will be equivalent to the difference between taking provincial roads and taking highways.
In order to hurry up, Guo Xiaoxiang gritted her teeth and drove the golf onto the M4 expressway.
Fortunately, the toll of 35 pounds was still paid as much as possible. The two of them drove in turns on the road and took five hours to arrive at Fishgard, a small town on the east coast of St. George's Strait.
Fishgard is a typical small port town in England. The small town is not large in area, only about one kilometer, with a population of about 3,000.
However, the scenery in the small town is very good. The main film "Under the Milk Tree" starring Elizabeth Taylor in 1971 was in this small seaside town.
Fishgard in September is much more beautiful than London. Because it is closer to the North Atlantic warm current, although the temperature here is higher than London, it does not make people feel hot. The warm sea breeze keeps blowing, leaving only indescribable comfort.
"If possible, I would rather stay here than go back to London!" Yang Jing, who was sitting in the passenger seat, stretched his waist, rolled down the window glass, and greedily breathed the slightly fishy air outside.
Guo Xiaoxiang nodded and said, "Who said no? Unfortunately, we all know that it is impossible."
Yang Jing smiled, looked at the picturesque scenery outside the window, and suddenly asked, "Fatty, isn't the Vardy Castle you mentioned??"
Guo Xiaoxiang looked in the direction of Yang Jing's finger and found that on a small hill near the port next to the city, under the cover of trees, a gray-white building appeared and disappeared.
Guo Xiaoxiang shook his head and said, "Wait a while, I will pull over and stop the car and call to ask. But if it is probably good, it should be our destination."
After a call, the fat man started the car quickly and walked towards the building he had just seen.
The small town is not big. After turning seven or eight along a not-wide road, a small hill about fifty or sixty meters high appeared in front of the two. Although the hills are not high, they have dense forests. In this dense forest, the building I just saw looks even taller and more spectacular.
"It's here." Guo Xiaoxiang stopped the car and said to Yang Jing beside him, "Let's wait a moment, and someone will come to take us over later. If no one leads this kind of private castle, we will not be able to get in at all."
After waiting for about five minutes, a white man in his forties drove to the place where the two were parked.
This white man Yang Jing also knew this guy. The guy was named Teddy Butler, who was a specialized labor agency. Many of the work they did before were taken from Butler.
"Hey, Guo, Yang, you two are a little late. The others have arrived, and you two are just missing."
Yang Jing smiled and said, "Sorry, man, you know it takes time to come from London."
Butler took out a box of cigarettes, leaned on Guo Xiaoxiang's golf cart and lit a cigarette, then said: "This time my life is a little different from the one before. This is a real castle, and Baron Vardy has a bad temper, so you two must pay more attention and never cause any trouble."
Guo Xiaoxiang smiled and said, "We all know this, and we can understand Baron Vardy's suffering. After all, the castle that has lived in for more than 400 years and has been lost from him for a long time. Of course, his temper is not much better. Don't worry, man, it's not the first time we have done such a job, we have a proper sense."
"Well, you know the best. Guo, this time you and Yang are mainly cleaning up the things in the loft on the top floor of the main fort. You don't have to worry about other places. There are other guys in charge in those places. You two just need to clean up the loft completely. Do you understand?"
Guo Xiaoxiang nodded, and Yang Jing said, "Then let's go over and take a look first?"
