After an hour's drive, the fleet arrived at the Rothschild family's manor in Bava.
"Letting guests stay in a hotel is not how we treat our guests. This manor is the property of our family. There won't be any reporters here. I hope you like it, "Carmen said to Jiang Chen politely after they got off the car.
No wonder they were an old noble from the Napoleonic era. To be able to buy such a magnificent manor in the expensive Frankberg, money alone was not enough. From the classical decorations and the stone walls that were permeated with the atmosphere of history, one could faintly see the history of this mansion.
It was not a manor, but a museum with hundreds of years of history.
The butler named Ccides took four bodyguards to the guesthouse of the manor, where the servants lived. Of course, the so-called servants lived only in a cultural sense. The living conditions there were no worse than a star-rated hotel.
Ayesha was supposed to live there as well, but the old butler keenly noticed that her relationship with Jiang Chen was not as simple as it appeared on the surface, so he considerately arranged for the two to stay in the same room in the main building.
The room with red wood flooring exuded a refreshing scent of wood. The Germanic aristocratic bed and the decorative fireplace on the wall made the entire bedroom look elegant and warm.
No wonder they were an old noble, even their enjoyment was so pretentious.
When Jiang Chen saw this room, he secretly thought that when he went back, he must make a similar bedroom in his mansion. As a nouveau riche, he didn't pay much attention to taste and pretentiousness.
The maid of the manor had already cleaned up the room before the two arrived. After she briefly explained the location of the bathroom and bathroom, she took the two to the dining room.
The dinner was not as elegant as imagined, but the taste and nutrition were impeccable. The red wine on the table was produced by Rothschild's Lafite Winery. Although the year was unknown, it was not difficult to smell its high value from the rich wine aroma.
Speaking of which, the most memorable thing about the Rothschild family was probably their red wine and bank. No one knew how rich they were, because they had written never revealing their wealth into their family motto, even if they gave up the opportunity to go public.
Perhaps this was the calmness of the old nobles. They turned a deaf ear to the people who questioned their decline and ignored the exaggerations in novels such as "Currency War".
At the dinner table, Carmen and Jiang Chen chatted happily, but they didn't talk about business at all. Ayesha, on the other hand, was silent as usual. She didn't say a word as she focused on the lamb chops on the plate.
After dinner, it was getting late. Carmen politely wished Jiang Chen a good time and reminded him not to miss the banquet tomorrow before he left. This manor seemed to only be used by the Rothschild family to receive their guests. As a member of the family, he didn't live here.
He took a shower in the marble bathroom before returning to the bedroom.
Ayesha was one step ahead of him. She was sitting on the bed and fiddling with a small black pen-like electronic device. Of course, Jiang Chen recognized the device. It was an anti-surveillance device that most of the weapon stores on the Sixth Street sold.
He used the scarf on his shoulder to wipe the water stains on his temples and asked Ayesha with a smile.
"Did you find it?"
Ayesha shook her head.
"No."
"Looks like the Rothschild family is quite sincere." Jiang Chen nodded, pleased.
What he didn't know was that Carmen did try to monitor him. When they first started working together, the USB he gave Jiang Chen contained a miniature locator. However, because it was thrown into the storage space, it didn't work at all.
When Carmen realized that the locator's signal mysteriously disappeared, he learned his lesson and didn't try any tricks that "couldn't escape" the eyes of others.
Sitting next to Ayesha, Jiang Chen smelled the scent of jasmine and knew she already showered.
He put his hand on her slender waist and whispered in her ear.
"Did you bring the schedule?"
Her ear was a bit ticklish from the hot air and her face was flushed from the shower. Ayesha nodded shyly.
"Mhmm, in the bag."
She was about to get up to help Jiang Chen take the briefcase from the table, but the hand on her waist didn't seem to want to let go.
Turning around, Ayesha's eyes met the naughty look.
"We can look tomorrow. Why don't we rest early today?" Jiang Chen smirked as his right hand said naughtily.
It was a quiet night.
The next morning, because they rested early, Jiang Chen woke up early.
He woke up Ayesha, who was sleeping like a cat. After a simple wash, the two went to the dining room to enjoy breakfast.
Then, Ayesha brought the schedule for Jiang Chen.
First day, arrive in Frankberg. No special arrangements.
Second day, free time during the day, attend a banquet hosted by Carmen Rothschild at the Bavarian estate.
Third day, attend the Ber Auto Show.
Fourth day, free time.
Fifth day, return to Xin.
A total of five days was not a full schedule. It was a rare opportunity to come here, so Jiang Chen didn't want to miss this strange but charming country. He heard that Bavaria had a famous attraction – Neuschwanstein Castle, which was the prototype of Disney Castle. Since it was a rare opportunity, Jiang Chen planned to take Ayesha there.
No one could say for sure whether these wonders of human civilization would be seen again someday in the future …
But before leaving the estate, Jiang Chen planned to take Ayesha on a tour of the attractions in front of him.
It was the Rothschild estate in Bavaria.
Holding her soft little hand, he walked on the marble paved road and felt the cool morning breeze. Jiang Chen narrowed his eyes and looked at the lush pine forest. Behind the pine forest was a wide lake.
Not far from the shore of the lake, Jiang Chen happened to catch a glimpse of a small wooden house next to the woods, as well as a sailboat in front of the wooden house. The sailboat didn't look exquisite, but from the symmetrical proportions on both sides and the smooth curved surface, Jiang Chen could still see an old man in a leather jacket holding a saw and concentrating on a piece of wood.
Building a boat?
Because of curiosity, Jiang Chen looked at him a few more times.
The old man seemed to have noticed Jiang Chen's gaze as he waved at them in a friendly manner. Then he ignored the two and continued to focus on the task at hand.
Jiang Chen took back his hand and muttered in a low voice.
"A servant of the Rothschild family?"
He shook his head and didn't care about the old man anymore. He held Ayesha's hand and continued to walk along the marble road.
What Jiang Chen didn't know was that before he disappeared from the old man's sight, the old man's eyes were staring at his back.
The slightly furrowed eyebrows seemed to be thinking about something.
