Seeing that William was a little confused, Lena patted William's arm speechlessly and greeted the chefs with a smile. William reacted and said with a smile, "Good morning, gentlemen. Welcome to Castle Devonshire. I'm William Devonshire."
The head chef smiled and said, "Good morning, Mr. Devonshire. I'm Gordon Ramsay, the head chef this time. I run a Michelin three-star restaurant in Chelsea, London. If you have time, you can try my restaurant."
"Chelsea?" William smiled and looked at his mother. "No problem, Mr. Ramsey. I'll definitely try it if I have the chance. If my mother is satisfied with today's dishes and taste, she'll definitely frequent your restaurant in the future." William smiled and looked at his mother.
"Ah, thank you." Gordon Ramsay looked at William with some confusion, not knowing what William meant.
"Haha, I'm sorry, Mr. Ramsay. You'll know later. My mother will definitely often go to Fulham, which is not far from your restaurant."
This made everyone even more confused, but a chef in his team in his fifties suddenly exclaimed, "God, my God, this can't be true, Mr. Devonshire. Is that person you?"
William nodded with a smile. "If we thought of the same thing and you don't object to me being the owner, then it should be me."
"God, of course I don't object. Only an idiot would object to you, a native of Chelsea. God, this must be the best news I've heard this year. You can rest assured that I won't tell."
At this time, some of the eleven people began to react. After all, they were all people who worked in Chelsea restaurants. Although Stamford Stadium was not in Chelsea but in Fulham, most of the people in Chelsea were fans of the Chelsea team.
Therefore, everyone was very concerned about the recent rumors that someone was secretly buying the Chelsea team. Now that they knew that it was William who was buying, the Chelsea fans in the chef's team were very happy.
William grew up in Chelsea and was definitely one of their own. Now that he had become a super-rich man, once he bought the team, Chelsea would not keep selling their star players because of debt in the future.
William, who was rich and one of their own, was definitely the most suitable and best owner among the Chelsea fans.
"Haha, although the shares have almost been bought, there are still a few shareholders who are hesitating. So, although this matter is a foregone conclusion, please keep it a secret for a while because I plan to expand Stamford Stadium and invest no less than 100 million pounds a year to buy players.
I still need time to deal with Chelsea's debt. I don't want Chelsea to still be in debt when I take it over because this is my birthday gift to my mother. "
"God." Everyone's heart.. Hundreds of millions of pounds to buy Chelsea just as a birthday gift? William's level of nouveau riche stunned the 11 chefs. The rich man really did not care about money. A birthday gift of hundreds of millions of pounds could be the most expensive birthday gift in the world. If the media knew about it, mothers all over the world would go crazy with jealousy.
William did not care to say it today, not because he was an idiot who liked to show off, but because he wanted to spread the word through these people that he wanted to pay off the debt, expand the stadium, and invest 100 million pounds a year.
85% of Chelsea's shares had been sold by Old Smith of Caesar's Palace. William's private lawyer had sorted out the legal documents and was waiting for William to sign so that the shares could be immediately transferred to William.
But there were still several funds that were very optimistic about England's Premier League teams and refused to sell to Old Smith of Caesar's Palace. So, he wanted to let outsiders know that he was the one who bought Chelsea, and the reason he bought Chelsea was just to give it to his mother as a birthday gift.
Not only would he not pay attention to Chelsea in the future, but he would also put Chelsea's shares in the Devonshire Family Charity Foundation that was being set up.
The controller of the foundation was his mother, and the beneficiaries were Lena, William, and his children.
As for his wife, William had not decided whether to get married or not, but even if he did, he would sign a prenuptial agreement. How much pocket money would be given every year after marriage, how much would be given as a reward for having children, and how much alimony would be given every year if they divorced.
,,,,,,.
The 23rd of this month was Lena's birthday. William said it today not only to test the pressure of the funds that refused to let go of Chelsea's shares, but also to prepare his mother mentally. She was happy, but she would not be too excited and hurt her body if she was mentally prepared.
Sure enough, Lena was very excited when she heard the news from William. But because Chelsea had not officially been in her hands, Lena was very excited, but she was not so excited that she could not control herself. She happily hugged William and kissed him a few times on the forehead before laughing.
Now that his goal was achieved, William arranged for the servants to take the chefs to the kitchen to prepare lunch.
At noon, Gallis arrived at the castle on time. William stood at the gate of the castle and hugged Gallis, who got out of the car. After greeting each other politely for a moment, William said with a smile, "Welcome to the castle as a guest. There's no need for formalities between us. Let's go. I'll show you around the castle, and you can eat on time in half an hour."
He took Gallis into the castle and said as he walked, "I don't know what you like to eat, so I went directly to the private account manager of the Swiss National Bank to help me book a three-star Michelin restaurant. I didn't expect them to find a team of 11 three-star Michelin chefs to serve us.
No matter what country's cuisine you want to eat, they can make it for you. The head chef seems to be called Gordon Ramsay. I don't know if his cooking skills are really at the level of a three-star Michelin chef. "
Gallis suddenly stopped after hearing William's complaint. He looked at William angrily and said, "Are you showing off, or do you really not know the name of Gordon Ramsay?"
"Well," William understood when he saw Gallis's unique gloomy eyes. He said, "It seems that Gordon Ramsay is really famous in the food industry. Otherwise, you, the head of the secret service, would not pay special attention to him.
But, Gallis, do you think I need to know him? No matter how famous he is, he still obediently rushed from London to the castle to serve us in less than an hour and a half with a reward of 100,000 US dollars for a meal. "
"F * ck, 100,000 US dollars for a meal?" Gallis looked at William in surprise. "God, William, you really make people want to rob you. The discount is really annoying. My monthly salary is only 10,000 pounds.
God, I have never heard of a team of chefs who can get 100,000 US dollars for a meal. No wonder Gordon Ramsay, that sharp-tongued person, came personally to be the head chef. Thank you, William. I didn't expect you to treat me so grandly. The only thing that troubles me is that I don't know how to repay you when you come to my house in the future. "
"Haha, whatever. It doesn't matter if it's expensive or not, as long as it's special. The reason why it's so grand this time is because it's your first time coming to my house and the castle's first official guest, so of course it has to be grand. It won't be so formal if you come a few more times."
"That's the best. If I spend so much money every time, I'll be embarrassed to come to your house again. Even the dukes are not as extravagant as you. Only you would be willing to spend 100,000 US dollars for a meal. This price is enough to hire a team of three Michelin three-star chefs for a month."
"Haha, let's not talk about this. A problem that can be solved with money is not a problem. Shouldn't we have a good talk after lunch and hunting?"
"Yes, we should have a good talk," Gallis replied as he looked at William with a smile.
"Very well, it seems that we have reached an agreement on some things. I think today will be a good day."
