Chapter 161: Leaving Paris

In the main castle hall of the Viscount Castle, there are 77 employees working in the Viscount Castle gathered at this moment. Some of these people have been working here since their birth.

However, at this time, they were nervous. They only got the news today that the Viscount Castle where they worked had actually changed the owner.

A local tyrant from the United States purchased the entire Viscount Castle, and at this moment, his fate is entirely in the hands of this local tyrant. If he loses his job, he does not know what to do.

Some employees who have worked for the castle since birth looked at the gate nervously, waiting for their sentence to be pronounced. If they lose their livelihood jobs, then they may ask the French government for help.

You won't even have a place to live.

At this time, the gate of the castle was opened, and Lu Ning and his party walked in under the eager eyes of all the employees.

"Mr. Lu, all the staff in the castle have arrived." Claude Louis stepped forward to report to Lu Ning.

At this moment, the eyes of the 77 employees were all fixed on Lu Ning. Unexpectedly, the local tyrant who bought the Viscount Castle was actually this handsome young man in front of him.

Lu Ning nodded towards Claude Louis and walked slowly to the staff of the ancient castle.

"Who is the butler?"

Hearing Lu Ning's question, among the staff, a middle-aged man in his 50s with meticulous hair care came out.

"Dear Mr. Lu, hello, I'm the butler of Viscount Castle, and my name is Louis Sale." The butler was very respectful.

"Butler Louis, how long have you been working for Chateau Vicomte?"

"It's been 30 years since I returned to Mr. Lu." Louis Saler can be said to have inherited his father's business, and took over the housekeeping job from his father. He has been working until now. Louis Saler can be said to be conscientious in his post. .

"Very good, Butler Louis, I hope you will continue to work for Viscount Castle." Lu Ning nodded, feeling good about this old-fashioned butler.

"This is my honor, master." Butler Louis breathed a sigh of relief and bowed respectfully to Lu Ning.

Of course, France has abolished the domestic slave system, but generally in nobles and castles, such a title has been retained, which is like a historical and cultural heritage.

Both the master and the servant have always acquiesced in such inheritance, and they feel it is right.

"Everyone, I'm Lu Ning, the new owner of Viscount Castle. I know that you are a little nervous now, but please rest assured that I will not dismiss any staff."

Lu Ning's assurance instantly relaxed the dignified atmosphere of the scene, and all the employees couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the new owner did not fire them, but was able to continue working for Viscount Castle.

"On the contrary, I will give you a 10% salary increase." Lu Ning's second sentence made everyone present cheer up. Not only did he not lose his job, but he also raised his salary.

"Thank you, master." More than 70 employees were chatting, thanking Lu Ning for his generosity.

Madeleine nodded again and again. Lu Ning is amazing. With the least investment, he won the favor and support of these employees.

"Butler Louis, let me introduce to you, this is Ms. Lauren. Usually, when I am away, Ms. Lauren will take charge of the daily operation and management of Fort Viscount Fortress for me."

Lu Ning introduced Lauren to Butler Louis. From now on, these two will be Lu Ning's right-hand man at Fort Viscount.

"Others, go back to their respective positions, Steward Louis, please show us around to familiarize yourself with the situation here."

"It is my honor to serve you, master." Butler Louis bowed and saluted, instructing all the employees to return to their posts, and then personally brought Lu Ning to familiarize himself with the environment of the Viscount Castle.

As for Claude Lewis, he has completed all the work that needs to be done,

At this time, He Lu Ning submitted his resignation.

Lu Ning shook hands with each other with a smile, and expressed his thanks, and asked Claude Louis and others to go out.

. . .

. . .

At this time, Lu Ning, Alice, Madeleine, and Lauren visited the Viscount Castle under the leadership of Butler Louis.

"Master, the castle of Vicomte de Versailles adopts the French open palace design, with high and steep roofs and towering chimneys. The entire castle of Vicomtesville adopts Gothic towers and small domes. There is a pavilion directly above the pavilion. lantern-like decoration and skylights on the roof."

Butler Louis accompanied Lu Ning and others to visit, while introducing the characteristics of Viscount Castle.

"Master, it is no exaggeration to say that there would be no Versailles Palace without Viscount Castle." Louis' housekeeper looked extremely proud.

Chateau de Vicomte is the originator of all French castles.

The rooms and corridors inside the castle are very spacious, and the furniture and decoration inside are extremely magnificent.

It turned out that the hostess's room was furnished with a lot of mirrors, which is probably the predecessor of the famous Hall of Mirrors in the Palace of Versailles.

The master bedroom is very spacious, with hidden electronic equipment, and retains the original style of more than 400 years ago.

Symmetrical and open buildings, broad and harmonious gardens, and infinitely extending Baroque axes, Fort Vicomte is definitely a model of French architecture and gardens.

The more Lu Ning looked, the more satisfied he became. All afternoon, everyone spent the whole afternoon on the tour.

"Lauren, it's time to equip some electric tour buses. It's too big and it's too tiring to walk."

A tired group of people sat in the pavilion in the garden, enjoying the French afternoon tea, the afternoon tea designed according to the taste of the nobles, and eating crispy and delicious French biscuits.

"Okay, BOSS." Lauren took the small notebook and recorded Lu Ning's request.

It's a pity that he doesn't have much money now, and there are many places. Lu Ning wants to re-plan according to his own design. Only after the movie is released, can his wallet be bulged out.

During the period, Lu Ning made a phone call to Fu Bo and asked Fu Bo to make a sum of money to Lauren's account first, which was considered as an expense during this period.

After Viscount Castle can become self-sufficient and even profitable, then slowly make adjustments.

Alice absolutely fell in love with this place. Being in Chateau de Vicomte was like walking into the promenade of time, returning to France 400 years ago, leaving the hustle and bustle of the city. Here, you can even go hunting in private territory.

Looking at the ancient castle in the sunset, it looks so solemn and grand.

After everything was arranged, everyone returned to the center of Paris. Today is the last day of Lu Ning and Alice in Paris. Tomorrow, they will go to Germany to continue their journey.

After dinner, Lu Ning, Alice and Madeleine said goodbye and agreed to meet in New York after Columbia University started.

Anyway, Lu Ning and Madeleine belonged to the neighbors upstairs and downstairs, and there was nothing to regret about the brief separation.

Madeleine was a little gloomy, and it seemed that her long-term meal ticket had left her for a while.
