Chapter 181 The Pastoral Dream of the Duchess

It was raining heavily in Manchester, and Zhuo Yang and Kou Kou were sitting in the Radisson Hotel. They seemed a little bored, so they played a lot of small games to pass the time.

The Radisson Blu Edwardian Hotel in Manchester is located in the city centre, 3 kilometers east of the Manchester City Training Center and just over a kilometer south of the Royal Northern College of Music. It has been almost a month since they arrived in Manchester. The couple has been living here and has saved the entire

Suite on the top floor.

According to their habits, they don't like to stay in hotels for a long time, so they initially planned to find a house in Cheshire, but unexpectedly they encountered some trouble and the matter was delayed.

In the British administrative division, a county is almost equivalent to a prefecture-level city in China, but in terms of jurisdiction area, it is actually a county.

Cheshire was also called Chestershire in the past. It is located immediately to the south of Greater Manchester and Merseyside. Merseyside is Liverpool. Compared with the two urban counties above our heads, Cheshire is not so busy.

It is developed, so it has more leisure and primitive natural scenery.

Especially located in the Cheshire Golden Triangle of Alderley Head, Winslow and Prestbury, just south of Manchester City, the beautiful pastoral scenery has attracted many nearby rich and famous people to call this place their home, from Cantona to

David Beckham and boxing champion Tyson all lived here.

Professional players are all wealthy people. Stars from Manchester City and Manchester United all like to rent or buy in this area. When Ronaldo and Ronaldo played for Manchester United, they also lived in Alderley Corner, Cheshire, only two meters away from the center of Manchester City.

It's very convenient to just put your foot on the accelerator for about ten kilometers.

Even many Liverpool players like to live in the Golden Triangle of Cheshire. There is a high-speed connection 50 kilometers away, so it is not a problem.

In 2014, Zhuoyang was preparing to move to Manchester United in a high-profile manner. At that time, he had already found a house in Cheshire in advance and even paid a deposit. However, things went wrong in the end. The transfer fell through and part of the deposit was lost.

After joining Manchester City, Zhuo Yang's first choice was naturally there, but the house he was interested in two years ago is now occupied by Manchester United's Argentinian defender Rojo. So, Kou Kou made the decision, and the two of them fell in love with Soo, who was also nearby.

House in Erskja.

After Manchester United's Norwegian star Ole Gunnar Solskjaer retired in August 2007, he immediately joined Ferguson's coaching staff and later served as the Manchester United reserve team at the Red Devils' Carrington base, where he was the U21 coach at the time.

In 2010, Solskjaer led the Manchester United reserve team to win the Premier League reserve league championship. Then he received an invitation from his old club before moving to Manchester United more than ten years ago and his hometown team Molde.

Officially started the journey of coaching the first team.

The house at Alderley Point in Cheshire was bought by Ole Gunnar Solskjaer more than ten years ago. After returning to Norway to coach, it has been vacant for many years. Solskjaer is an old house, built before World War II, to put it mildly.

It's called antique, but it's actually old and dilapidated, and it occupies a huge area.

The facilities were old and the functional layout of the entire yard was unreasonable, so it was never rented out until Kou Kou fell in love with it.

Pastoral life is very attractive, but it refers to urban pastoral, not real solitary living with two cows on an acre of land. Kou Kou did not take a fancy to Suo Zhai's house, but took a fancy to its location and surrounding environment.

Mrs. Zhuo plans to buy the Suo House and then tear it down and rebuild it. Not even a tile will be left in the old house. The new house will become a Victorian-style building with a retro appearance but a modern and fully functional interior.

It’s okay for my wife to want the stars in the sky, let alone build a house, Zhuo Yang supports it with both hands.

Zhuoyang asked for a call from Sir Alex Ferguson and contacted Solskjaer directly in Norway. To be honest, Solskjaer was a bit reluctant to sell the Cheshire house. He likes old houses that match the steam cap era.

I feel like staying there is just a thought even if I can’t live there anymore.

Moreover, Solskjaer has always dreamed of returning to Manchester United to coach one day. Ferguson also favored him the most among his many disciples, not Ryan Giggs, so Solskjaer actually never thought about selling his house.

But he couldn't stand Zhuo Yang's deception. After a phone call, Suo Sheng felt that once he returned to Manchester United to coach, it would be most reasonable to live in the city. Alderley Corner in Cheshire was useless. So, the open-minded Suo Sheng responded with a

The old house was transferred to Zhuo Yang at a reasonable price.

Suo Sheng is indeed a good man. He reminded Zhuoyang before the settlement: If the renovation is to be carried out, it must be approved by the Alderley Town Council, otherwise there will be no way. And it is basically difficult to get approval. The more famous you are, the harder it is.

.

Is there such a thing? Zhuo Yang closed his wallet and hurried to inquire carefully. The budget for the entire acquisition and renovation was at least 4.5 million pounds. Even if the Zhuo couple were rich, they could not spend money inexplicably.

I have to blame Ronaldo for this.

After Ronaldo transferred from Portugal to Manchester United in the summer of 2003, he soon found a house to rent in Cheshire. However, the villas here were generally old, and the layout and infrastructure were somewhat unreasonable. Professional players need a lot of functional equipment.

Space, such as a large gym and a large swimming pool, etc., can only be used in old houses.

In the past few years, Ronaldo moved back and forth in Cheshire and changed several places. It was not until 2008 that he bought a favorite villa and completely renovated it, spending 4 million pounds.

After Ronaldo went to Real Madrid, the mansion was rented by Nani. The current tenant is Luke Shaw, and the rent is 7,000 pounds per month.

When Ronaldo was carrying out construction projects in Alderley Point, it aroused dissatisfaction among local residents. They believed that the noise and construction destroyed the natural environment here.

This area is full of villas. Except for the rich and famous, the natives living here are all current dignitaries whose ancestors were rich. Whether it is out of jealousy or disdain for the nouveau riche players, anyway, the reasons for 'environmental protection' are greater than anything in the world.

.

Cristiano Ronaldo also said all the good things back then, and the villa design plan was changed several times before he finally built his red brick three-story house. During this period, due to the obstruction of local old-school celebrities, the construction was stopped several times. Otherwise, how could it have happened?

It was only repaired in 2008.

Cristiano Ronaldo was the first to try something new. He opened an old villa in Cheshire and pushed it to the forefront of reconstruction. I am afraid that someone will take the lead in these things.

Rooney immediately demolished his own house. Xiaopang is a gangster and is from Merseyside next door, so he is not as particular as Cristiano Ronaldo. He doesn't bother to say hello and just gets on the bulldozers and excavators.

Rumbling and billowing smoke.

Rooney's unscrupulousness angered the old gentlemen, but he was so scared that Xiaopang didn't care about you. The gentlemen blocked the road and refused to let the construction materials enter the site, so Xiaopang called the brothers on the road to the master, and the gentlemen filed a lawsuit in court.

Xiaopang just spends money to hire the best lawyer.

If you want to go, the project can't be stopped anyway.

In this way, Lu Xiaopang relied on bravery and brute force to quickly complete the reconstruction of the Cheshire villa.

Cristiano Ronaldo made a good start, but Rooney followed closely but blocked the way. The gentlemen of Cheshire deeply felt that a talent meets a soldier. In order to prevent other stars from following suit, they gave full play to their greatest advantage - Parliament.

The "Residential Protection of Natural Environment Act" was quickly passed by the local town council.

If something rises to the legal level, it is enough to be endorsed. According to this local act, anyone who wants to change the topography, appearance, roads, and all related building facilities of the residence must obtain the approval of the town council, not your territory.

You decide.

It’s not that you are not allowed to build it, but it must be approved by the masters first. As for how to get approval and how long it will take to get approval, guess what?

Once this bill was passed, Aguero, Kompany, Valencia, Lingard and other people who had planned to follow up all backed down. Now Mrs. Zhuo’s pastoral dream has also been encouraged.
