Chapter 916: Brother Huanxi has another year-end friendship

This is the first time our Brother Happy has been with Stephen alone.

This old man is in great spirits and in good health. Although his hair is gray, he is meticulously combed. Although the clothes he wears are not new, the cutting and handicrafts are beyond words.

Especially the old man speaks pure Chinese and talks with humor. Compared with Gomez with him, he is simply two worlds, and it doesn't make people feel bored at all.

Brother Huanxi was surprised, why did Stephen and Gomez know Chinese and speak so well?

Did this family speak Chinese from birth?

Especially Stephen's face, you say he is European, yes! But if you say he is Eastern, it looks like it.

Brother Huanxi has never encountered such a strange thing.

"His Excellency Baron, husband Ray, please use tea."

At this time, Gomez brought tea.

"Olds, are you really a Baron [no][wrong]?" Brother Huanxi remembered that when he was in Miami, someone called Stephen the Baron.

The name "Olds" made Stephen stunned for a moment, and then he smiled: "What do you think? My grandfather is the baron, my father is the baron, and I later became the baron, but I don't know how the baron's name came from."

"Wait, wait." Brother Huanxi was confused when he heard it: "You don't know either?"

Isn't this nonsense?

Indeed, there are still many nobles in Europe, such as Britain. Their noble titles were either inherited or bought with money.

Of course not everyone with a noble title is so noble.

For example, in the UK, many successors with noble titles also work.

Well, that's about it. With the title of Lord Viscount, I did something wrong when I went to work. The boss immediately did not care about your identity and scolded you. If you can't do it, you will just be able to leave. If you don't, just put the bed and leave. What kind of aristocrat are you?

This is not the most saddest.

Sadly, the descendants of those nobles and the heirs of certain ancient castle manors did not have to pay taxes when inheriting these ancient castle manors, but they needed maintenance.

The government's rigid regulations must maintain the original appearance of the castle manor. This is equivalent to handing over the task of protecting the monuments to the private sector.

Maintenance fees are often huge, so what should these heirs do? First, some ancient castle manors are opened for tourists to take pictures or visit for a fee.

The cost is not enough? Work!

All the money earned from working is thrown into it.

Although these people were living a miserable life, at least they knew where their aristocratic titles were inherited, but Stephen didn't know how the baron's title came from?

Is this kidding with your brother Huanxi?

"Really." Stephen said very seriously: "My family is an ancient family, but it has no history."

Brother Huanxi just picked up the tea and took a sip, but he almost spit out when he heard this.

My family is an ancient family, but it has no history?

An ancient family without history?

Who will believe it if you tell me?

"No one knows when my family appeared, nor does anyone know the origin of this family." Stephen said with a wry smile:

"We have hired the most famous historians in Europe to verify the family. But the ten historians have ten completely different answers. Some people say that our family has a history of less than a hundred years, while others say that our family actually existed since the ancient Roman era. My child, who would you believe in such a situation?"

Brother Huanxi doesn’t believe anyone’s words!

This is so good that your brother Huanxi believes in!

"But our family, like me." Stephen did not hide it at all: "Every baron has inherited many things from birth, such as huge wealth and power. God knows where these hell things come from."

Brother Huanxi swallowed.

Could you please share some of the “hell” things you said to me?

These "hell" things are flocking to them by countless people.

"So you ask me where my baron title came from, I don't know. Where my wealth came from, I don't know. Even where this hotel came from, I don't know."

Brother Huanxi's eyes widened: "This tourist? This hotel is also yours?"

"It's mine." Stephen nodded: "Anyway, my family owns its entire, undisputed contract, and the South African government has recognized it as private property and has included it in the category of protection that cannot be destroyed without permission."

Brother Huanxi touched his head: "Old Si, so old hotel, forget it, let's put it down, how good is it to build a new one?"

"Old? Demolition?" Stephen pointed to his surroundings: "Do you know how many years this hotel has existed? In 1910, the British merged the Cape, Transvaal, Natal and Orange Free States into the South African Federation, becoming the British dominion. It appeared. It witnessed the development of Cape Town. It witnessed a period of history."

OK, okay, it’s meaningless to talk about this. Your brother Huanxi doesn’t understand these history.

"By the way, Lao Si. What kind of baron are you?" Brother Huanxi suddenly thought of this question: "Don't every nobleman has a title?"

But Stephen did not answer this question, but stood up and walked to the window: "Look, from here, you can see the sea, so I come here to stay for a while every year to calm my mood."

Brother Huanxi also came to the window and saw that he could indeed see the sea, but what was good about it when he saw it once a year?

"By the way, what did you call me just now?"

"Olds."

"No one has ever called me that before. It's funny, really interesting. So what should I call you? Lei Husband? Lei Huanxi? Or"

Speaking of this, Stephen couldn't help laughing: "I call you Brother Huanxi like others?"

Huh? This sounds good.

A dignified baron actually called himself Brother Huanxi?

"Old Si, just call it whatever you want." Brother Huanxi smiled: "Isn't the name just a name. They said that I have an old friend in the Blue Scarf Plan, but I didn't expect it to be you. Lao Si, have you also participated in the Blue Scarf Plan?"

"Yes, it was the Blue Scarf Base Camp who invited me to participate." Stephen shrugged: "I didn't want to come at first, but I heard that you were here, so I agreed. Brother Huanxi."

Brother Huanxi smiled with a cry of brother Huanxi.

But Gomez, who came in again, happened to hear this title and couldn't help frowning. The Baron is too out of control. How could he call a young child like this?

And this child actually agreed so carelessly! (To be continued.)
