The price of 40,000 pounds made Roque feel distressed, and the price of 20,000 pounds felt much better.

Although this price is still a bit expensive, it is still very suitable for Ade.

Roque also picked one for himself, also located on King's Road in the Chelsea district, not far from the house to be given to Ade, and Roque was going to be a neighbor with Ade in London for a while.

Compared with the house to be given to Ade, Roque's house is much smaller, it is also a three-story structure, and there are only eighteen rooms, which is suitable for Roque's family of three.

It sounds a bit extravagant, right, but it's not excessive, Phyllis's clothes and shoes can fill several rooms, and the extravagance of the nobility is no joke.

Phyllis is also very happy with the new house, and it seems that she really wants to experience the life of ordinary people.

"Then drive Don and them all away, leaving only Zach and Bella." Roque still has reservations, it is necessary to leave Zach behind, ushering in a carriage or something, and Roque can't be allowed to do it himself.

Of course, it is also important to leave Bella, if no one helps, Gavin alone can toss Phyllis to death, Phyllis's cooking skills are also very touching, there is a high probability that she doesn't know that sugar is also a condiment, Bella has excelled in this aspect, and she has the true inheritance of Anna.

"Don't think that's all you have to say, I'll settle accounts with you when I get back—" Phyllis put her mouth into Roque's ear, seemingly affectionately.

Roque turned his head unceremoniously, and then Phyllis blushed.

It's all old husbands and wives, why are you shy-

Fortunately, it was in the carriage back, otherwise Phyllis would have been angry, and she still had to pay attention to the impact in public.

Phyllis didn't want to see Ada, so Roque picked a house, and Phyllis immediately pulled Roque up and left, not giving Roque and Ada a chance to make eye contact, and Roque couldn't care about Arthur if he wanted to.

Sure enough, words like "bring it back, I'll raise it" are all routines.

Accustomed to living in the manor, Phyllis was so fresh that she quickly forgot about Ada's bad things.

Entering the door, Phyllis led Bella to check room by room, the state of the house is not bad, after all, it is a rich area, ready to sell at any time, and the decoration furniture is complete.

However, Phyllis still had a lot of dissatisfaction, the color of the curtains, the wallpaper in the children's room, the style of the furniture, and even the decorative paintings on the walls had to be replaced.

This is not something that Bella can handle, so Zach was also called away from the record and sent someone to find Christian, which Christian is better at.

Roark and Winston didn't care about anything, they sat in the study smoking cigars, and Phyllis didn't enter the study, choking on the smell of smoke.

Roque and Winston did it on purpose, smoking Phyllis away, and the two of them laughed he

Sure enough, if a man is reliable, the sow will go up the tree, and Phyllis stared so closely just now that it didn't delay Roque to get Ada's call.

"Hello-" Ada's voice on the phone was a little distorted, but still sexy, and Roark seemed to be able to see Ada's lazy appearance across the phone line.

"Dear Madame Capet, if there is such a thing next time, can you inform me in advance?" Roque hated it, this woman can't be trained without training, otherwise he wouldn't know what kind of demon he would be next.

"Dear Lord Nyasaland, please do not call a single woman, although I am not a lady of Nyasaland, I feel that I have an obligation to remind you." Ida was really underwhelmed, and Roque felt his hands itch very much: "In accordance with your orders, I now officially inform you that I will attend the welcome dinner that Winston has prepared for you in the evening, and you want to see what I wear?" ”

Roque immediately glared at Winston, this guy is also watching the excitement is not a big deal, why do you want to invite Ada, is this to see Ida and Phyllis fight?

Winston didn't care, and was happy to see the back molars.

"What about Arthur?" Roque could only divert attention.

"Yo, finally remembered to care about our orphans and widows?" Ida is still provoking without knowing whether to live or die.

Roque didn't speak, and then Ida finally relented: "Of course Arthur is with me, and I'm going to take Arthur around the world before he becomes an adult." ”

It's a good idea, and Roque actually wants to go, but unfortunately he doesn't have that much time.

In fact, Ida doesn't have the time to travel around the world, but when people work, they travel by the way, and whichever country the business of the RAND Bank develops to, Ida can check the work as a matter of course, so it doesn't waste much time.

"Okay, goodbye!" Roque actually wanted to hear what Arthur had to say, so after thinking about it, he hung up the phone decisively.

"I really didn't expect the RAND Bank to be yours." Winston was unbelievable.

When Winston first met Roque, Roque was only the captain of the Cape Town Police Department's commando team, and Winston was attending a banquet held by Ade at the time, and Roque was not even qualified to participate in the banquet, but was only responsible for the security of the banquet.

In just five years, Roque has become a baron of Nyasaland and a millionaire, which cannot but make Winston sigh at the wonder of life.

"Come on, compared to you becoming a member of Congress at the age of 26, my achievements are not worth mentioning." Roque is not proud, Winston is lamenting that Roque climbs fast, in fact, Winston himself is not slow.

26 Becoming a member of Congress is absolutely impossible for ordinary people.

Winston is different, he is the grandson of the duke, it is normal to climb faster than others, ordinary people becoming a member of Congress may be the pinnacle of life, Winston started at the peak.

As the saying goes, all roads lead to Rome, and some people were born in Rome.

Winston was so happy that he stopped talking to Roque and let Roque rest at home for a while to prepare for the evening dinner.

At six o'clock in the evening, Roark packed up his belongings and boarded a carriage sent by Winston with Phyllis to the Duke of Marlborough's estate on the outskirts of London.

Don't look at the name of the Duke of Marlboro, in fact, the area of the manor is not as large as Roque's estate in Sandhurst, but the history of this manor is now more than 400 years old, and it is said that it has existed since the first Duke of Marlborough was crowned.

The Duke of Marlborough has been awarded the title twice in history, the first in 1626 and the second in 1689, when the Churchill family was awarded the title of Duke of Marlborough in 1689.

The big family that has been inherited for hundreds of years is simply unfathomable, not comparable to a "nouveau riche" like Roque, and the carriage sent also uses handmade glass lanterns, Roque is all swept away and ignored, but Phyllis can't take his eyes off it.

It is said that Phyllis also has such old objects that are hundreds of years old in her house, but there are not many of them, and they are all stored as family treasures, and they are far from being as ubiquitous as the Marlborough family.

Roque doesn't like it, he doesn't even need a flashlight, what if it rains?

In fact, people are really not afraid of rain, and the carriage used on rainy days is different from the carriage used on sunny days, and the only thing in common is that it is very upside down.

Hundreds of years ago, horse-drawn carriages had a shock-absorbing design, and Roque didn't know what the point was in preserving such a family tradition.

When Roque arrived at the manor, the banquet had not yet officially begun, and the guests invited by Winston were gradually arriving.

At this time, you can see Winston's popularity, this guy's popularity is really bad, in fact, whether it is the Conservative Party or the opposition party in Congress, they don't like Winston, so there are few guests invited by Winston, most of them are people who have worked in Africa.

Although Roque was the guest of honor at the banquet, in fact, in Britain, Roque, the Baron of Nyasaland, was really inconspicuous, and I believe that the vast majority of British people did not even know where Nyasala was, and their first impression of Africa was probably the Zulu War decades ago, and the Boer War that had just ended.

So Roque is also responsible for popularizing science for the guests.

"Southern Africa is actually quite rich, Johannesburg's gold mines are world-famous, the Transvaal has other minerals such as steel and copper, as long as the development of southern Africa is increased, more resources can be provided for the British Empire-" Rock knew the British government's position in southern Africa, so he did not mention industrial development, gold was the most important thing for the aristocracy.

The guests had different attitudes, many of them had worked in southern Africa, some of them had participated in the recent Boer War, so they still know a lot about southern Africa, although some people are very interested in southern Africa, most people's impression of southern Africa is still poor and remote, unruly Africans, and extremely vicious Boers.

"Lord Nyasaland, I heard that you also have gold mines in Johannesburg?" Among the many voices, one that was a little shrill was exceptionally loud.

It was a young man who was about eighteen or nineteen years old who spoke, and Roque suddenly felt bad, this age is the most troublesome, he doesn't care about doing things, he is impulsive and reckless, but he has a lot of desires, because he can't achieve it due to his own ability, for young people of this age, Roque is generally respectful.

Being able to appear at Winston's banquet, the young man probably has something to do with Winston, and it can also be seen from the reactions of others, Roque noticed that someone called the young man "Your Excellency" just now, that is, the descendant of a certain nobleman, but I don't know if it is the Duke of Marlborough.

"Yes, it's just a small gold mine, the production is not high, and there are still a lot of gold mines in Johannesburg." Roque is modest, it's not easy to be publicistic at this time, and it's still not low-key enough.

"Sell me your gold mines, you make a price!" Young people are indeed very confident, but I don't know if Roque can afford it if he really makes a bid.

The value of the Rock Gold Mine –

It's hard to say, all the gold in the world now added up, almost as much as the reserves of the Rock gold mine.

"William, don't mess around!" Winston finally spoke, and no matter what the value of the Rock Gold Mine was, it was too much to ask for such a request.
