Chapter 10: Treasure Land
However, compared to the bedroom on the second floor, these houses below are indeed where the servants reside
"Who is it?" Jiang Hai, who was admiring himself at that moment, was startled by the knocking on the door and immediately asked.
His fundamental basis for existence lies in this great serpent. Now, regardless of the circumstances, it likes this place, so he must definitely purchase it. Seeing Jiang Hai finally relent, Will Anthony and Robbins Garcia both breathed a sigh of relief
There is also a separate small study, a kitchen that is not small, two living rooms, one being the entrance living room, and the other a separate room-style living room, two small bedrooms, as well as a dozen rooms of similar size, and a master bedroom that is nearly 80 square meters. I wonder if it is because this bed is simply too large that it was left behind by the previous owner.
However, for Jiang Hai, this arrangement is quite meaningful. The people of Ice City are naturally fond of drinking from large bowls and eating meat in big bites. They are fundamentally unaccustomed to the frugal eating habits of Jiangnan. Upon seeing the food before him, and being stimulated by the aroma, Jiang Hai felt his appetite awaken. Without further ado, the two exchanged pleasantries and took their seats at the table. Jiang Hai directly picked up a fork and speared a piece of steak to eat. As soon as the steak entered his mouth, there was no need for words; it was delicious!
Approximately eight hours for one scale, that's fantastic. At this rate, there will be three scales in a day. This snake has a total of one thousand and eighty scales, and currently, one hundred and thirty-seven scales have grown. In less than a year, it should be able to evolve! Touching his perfect eight-pack abs, uh, the tattoo on top made Jiang Hai chuckle softly, and he began to feel a vague sense of anticipation.
It is inevitable that the estate owner provides food and accommodation for these hired individuals at hetushucom, and the previous estate owner was clearly not short of money
In the domestic realm, it takes five days in Ice City for a scale to grow, while in the Imperial Capital, it takes eight days for a scale to develop. In the United States, it is somewhat better; in California, it requires three days, while Oregon and Washington need two and a half days. He remembers that when he left Portland yesterday, the scales had only grown two-thirds. Even if the feng shui in Boston is good, it should still take until the evening or the next day for them to grow. However, upon arriving here, within just a few hours, that one-third of the scale had already fully developed. At that moment, he had already decided to purchase this place.
In recent days, he often experiences this feeling; as long as the scales grow, it will happen. However, if he uses blood to activate something, he will feel a kind of palpitations, which is quite uncomfortable.
Upon entering Robbins' room, one could see several pots placed on the table in his room
Thus, there is only one cold storage for vegetables here, along with some warehouse-like structures. At the end of the corridor, there are many rooms, which, according to Robbins, are meant for the servants. Upon hearing this, Jiang Hai couldn't help but smile.
In addition, this room is equipped with a small kitchen and an external balcony, which offers a perfect view of the distant beach and sea
Next to the kitchen is a vast bathroom, which even features a soaking area in the middle. The entire bathroom occupies approximately 300 square meters. Adjacent to the bathroom is a large storage room, and thus there is nothing left on the left side.
The main reason is for this long worm on his chest; he wants to see if it can truly accelerate his evolution process here. If it cannot, then he can always back out at any time before signing the contract tomorrow
Oh? Sure! Upon hearing Robbins' words, Jiang Hai smiled. Northeasterners are generally straightforward in character, and as long as safety is ensured, he would naturally not stand on ceremony when invited to dinner.
In addition to fish and meat, there are also two large bowls of salad here, one bowl of fruit and one bowl of vegetables, along with a basket of bread, and butter placed beside it. Such a presentation would be unappetizing to those traditional wealthy individuals at first glance
"It is already quite late, is Robbins busy?" Jiang Hai asked with some confusion, looking at the somewhat hesitant Robbins
Bang bang bang! Just as Jiang Hai was admiring the scales of the snake on his body, a series of knocks sounded from outside the door
It is heartbreaking, a guest room requires one hundred and fifty-six square meters, is there any room left for people to live?
Jiang Hai could see that there was a plate of roasted beef, which had been cut into steaks approximately ten centimeters thick. The beef was charred on the outside and tender on the inside, sprinkled with black pepper and other seasonings. As soon as he walked in, the aroma wafted through the air, causing Jiang Hai to feel his stomach involuntarily tighten.
However, it seems that this place did not give him a chance to regret, for at night, another scale of the snake grew on his chest
The foundation area of the large house must be at least half an acre, approximately 2,000 square meters. Upon entering the first floor, one is greeted by a vast living room. Although this space has already been emptied and contains nothing, it is evident that the layout is quite impressive. The square hall is about 200 square meters. To the left of the square hall is a public restroom, approximately 50 square meters, which was likely used to accommodate guests during meetings or parties in the past. Adjacent to the restroom is a kitchen of about 100 square meters. The kitchen appliances have also been removed, leaving only empty spaces, but it can be anticipated that there will be no concerns about storage when purchasing new kitchenware in the future.
By the time they visited the master bedroom, Jiang Hai had become even more composed, as the master bedroom was larger, featuring a walk-in closet of at least 30 square meters, filled with numerous wardrobes, as well as a larger bathroom and shower room. It was unclear who this shameless fellow had been bathing with all day long, but the bathtub that had not been removed could comfortably accommodate four people sitting down.
On the other side is a large guest room, approximately 40 square meters in size, accompanied by a small bathroom
The reason for the warmth in my chest this noon is precisely because of it
"I didn't expect it to be so fast!" Looking at the tattoo on his chest, Jiang Hai couldn't help but mutter softly.
The residential area here is quite well constructed, with individual two-story houses for ordinary cowboys, fishermen, and winemakers, each featuring an additional half-story attic for storage. Each small building contains four rooms, a spacious living room, a basement, a bathroom, a kitchen, and all necessary amenities. A total of fifteen such small buildings have been constructed, suggesting that this place once employed fifteen individuals or housed fifteen families. As for the large house where the owner resides, it is indeed somewhat intimidating.
Servants? The room for the servant must have independent air conditioning, underfloor heating, and the bathroom and shower must be separate. The bathroom should have a spacious shower and a bathtub, along with its own walk-in closet. Looking at the network cables and cable TV sockets on the floor, there should be both a television and a computer. It should include a large bedroom and a large living room. According to Jiang Hai's perspective, the servant's room should be at least 60 square meters.
When Jiang Hai lived in Ice City with his father and mother, that house was only over 40 square meters, which illustrates the disparity
Subsequently, they returned to the residential area here, believing that to operate such a large place, which serves as a ranch, a fishery, and a vineyard, at least ten people or more would be required for its normal functioning
However, thinking about it, these rooms would all belong to him in the future, which slightly calmed Jiang Hai's heart.
Although everything has been moved out, the rooms on the second floor are almost like hotel suites, each one being a suite. There are a total of twelve rooms on the second floor, aside from a gym, a study which is also referred to as a small meeting room, a game room, and a room that can be used for karaoke and watching movies, there are also eight bedrooms. Among them, one is a master bedroom, while the other seven bedrooms are for guests, and they are basically identical in appearance. Upon entering, there is a living room of approximately fifty square meters, next to which is a large bathroom. Beside the bathroom is a small room, which, although referred to as small, is still about fifteen or sixteen square meters, and can accommodate various furnishings.
"Mr. Jiang, I would like to invite you to dinner. I know that people from Huaxia have this custom of discussing matters at the dining table. While you were out buying a quilt this afternoon, I went fishing and caught a few fish, along with some beef. Please allow me to showcase my culinary skills to you." Robbins said to Jiang Hai after hesitating for a moment.
Oh, wait a moment. Immediately putting on his clothes, Jiang Hai walked to the door, opened it, and saw Robbins standing at the entrance.
He has become accustomed to the sensation of these long scales, but what surprised him somewhat was the passage of time
After tidying up, Jiang Hai followed Robbins to his room
"It is I, Mr. Jiang." Upon hearing the question from inside, Robbins' voice from outside also came through.
On the right side, there are many things, such as a laundry area, a dedicated cold storage for vegetables, and naturally, there is another cold storage outside for meat. After all, it is necessary to raise fish and cattle; having these items in the house would be quite odorous
The bed measures a full 4 meters by 6 meters, and I truly do not know whether it is meant for sleeping or for wrestling
In addition to the steak, there are also two bowls; one of the bowls contains a fish, a type of fish that even Jiang Hai does not recognize. It appears to be a sea fish, but all that can be seen are the fish head and fish bones, with only the golden-brown fish meat piled up beside them
However, if one thinks about going to sleep, it would be quite comfortable! After touring these rooms, Jiang Hai finally found some solace regarding the money he spent. After viewing these items, he did not say much and directly agreed with Will Anthony on the price of 280 million. He decided to take the house and did not return to Boston; instead, he purchased some daily necessities in a nearby county and moved in here. He did not forget the reason he spent this 280 million.
His room is the only one still occupied among the fifteen small buildings at present. Walking past it unexpectedly can indeed be somewhat unsettling. In fact, Jiang Hai's room is even more unsettling, but neither of these two pays any attention to that.
