Chapter 139 Blackstone Mansion

After Mai Shutoku turned around and went out coolly, an old man wearing a black kimono and a straight face walked in.

He bowed deeply to Zhou Xuan with a respectful look, and said in plain Chinese: "Hello, Mr. Zhou, I am Hiroshi Kimura, the steward of the Black Stone Residence. You can just call me Kimura."

Before he finished speaking, two maids with delicate features quickly walked up to Zhou Xuan, spoke softly in Japanese, and then quickly helped him remove the medical equipment from his body, and then helped him put on his clothes.

"Blackstone Mansion?" Zhou Xuan was really not used to dressing under the service of others, but he still did not refuse.

As for the reason, there is no other reason.

The two maid girls had serious expressions on their faces, "It is our duty as a maid to serve our master with all due diligence." Looking at this attitude, if Zhou Xuan showed even the slightest dissatisfaction, they would immediately draw their swords and commit seppuku to apologize, and then die in a pool of blood. You might get down from your seat respectfully or something like that.

Listening to Zhou Xuan's words, Hiroshi Kimura replied: "Yes, Mr. Zhou, you are currently in Atami, a coastal city on the Izu Peninsula of Japan. This is a famous hot spring town, and the Kuroishi Official Residence is the most luxurious residence in Atami. Mansion."

"It was born in the middle period of the Edo shogunate. At that time, a shogun of the shogunate took a boat through the Atami. It happened to be that the clouds broke and the sun rose, and the waves on the sea sparkled and shone."

"At that time, the general saw a high black cliff on the seaside that plunged straight into the bay. It was like a huge and domineering sword falling from the sky and splitting the golden sea."

"The general liked its aloof and decisive beauty, so he built a mansion on it. This was the birth of the Blackstone Mansion."

"After the Meiji Restoration, the Blackstone Mansion was sold to a big businessman and became a private person..."

Hiroshi Kimura told Zhou Xuan the history of the Black Stone Mansion with a respectful expression, and at the same time he couldn't help but think of several questions that had troubled him for a long time.

What is the identity of this young man who is so handsome that he can even reduce his dimensionality in the Japanese entertainment industry?

What kind of emotional entanglement is there between him and those three women?

How on earth did he capture the hearts of three of them at the same time?

Hiroshi Kimura has worked in the Blackstone Residence for more than thirty years, and it can be said that he has witnessed the rise and decline of this official residence.

The previous owner of the Blackstone Mansion was a famous director. He held extremely lavish parties here every weekend. There was a lot of wine and meat. Helicopters picked up the distinguished guests from the airport and went directly to the mansion.

However, within a few years of living such a hard and simple life, the director was short of money.

But he was not deprived by the guests because of the party, but was dragged down by the expensive maintenance costs of the Blackstone Mansion.

As an important cultural relic of the Edo shogunate period, the Kuroishi Mansion is protected by government orders.

Therefore, the stone used for its annual maintenance must come from the mountains of Kobe, the wood must come from distant Hokkaido, and the carvings must be made by craftsmen who are proficient in traditional Japanese crafts to ensure the antique flavor and authenticity of this precious historical relic.

It can be said that the maintenance cost every ten years is equivalent to the price of the Blackstone Mansion.

It is worth mentioning that when the director bought the Kuroishi residence, he spent a total of 14 billion yen, which is equivalent to about 100 million U.S. dollars.

Compared with the level of cheating at the Blackstone Mansion, the operation of paying off the interest for the first twenty years of the thirty-year mortgage is just watering down and not worth mentioning!

At that time, the impoverished director had no choice but to part ways and put the Blackstone mansion up for sale.

But as soon as the interested buyers heard about the terrifying maintenance fee of this official residence, they all said that their mobile phones were out of gas and they would talk about it next time. I will definitely talk next time.

In the end, even the real estate company that was the sales agent was profited. In the words of the real estate manager: "No matter how stupid you are, no one will spend tens of billions of yen to buy an expensive building like an emperor's palace to soak in a hot spring!"

The desperate director, with the mentality that if you don't try, it's useless, it's like a blind cat meets a dead mouse, he listed the Blackstone Mansion on eBay.

eBay is an online shopping platform similar to Taobao.

At that time, online shopping was still a relatively new thing, and all kinds of weird things were popping up in endlessly. Some people were buying airplanes, tanks, fighter jets, and even Boeing 747s online. Of course, it’s hard to say whether shipping is included or not.

And half an hour after the director listed the Blackstone Mansion on eBay, he felt that he was so sick that he rushed to seek medical treatment, which was ridiculously stupid!

How in the world could someone spend tens of billions of yen on eBay to buy an official residence?

He sighed and turned on his computer, preparing to take Blackstone Official Residence off the shelves.

But the director was shocked to find that someone had already deposited nearly 800 million yen into his account.

A person with the ID "ENXI" bought the Blackstone Mansion through eBay!

Fifteen days later, a cashier's check from a Swiss bank arrived in the director's hands.

ENXI paid the full amount, and along with the cashier's check came a note stating the date ENXI would arrive at the Blackstone residence.

……

That day, Hiroshi Kimura, who was still a good-looking uncle, got up early, put on a black kimono, combed his hair meticulously, and led the maids to stand in front of the official residence to greet him.

He and the maids were all speculating on the identity of the new owner of Blackstone Mansion.

Are they the oil tycoons of the United Arab Emirates, the big capitalists of the United States, or the nouveau riche from China?

But the result was beyond everyone's expectations.

There were only two Siamese cats that arrived at Blackstone's official residence that day, and they were of a less pure breed, chubby and cute.

"The buyer said that he is not free to come and live at the moment, so he will let the two cats come over to look at the house. You can just entertain them." The person who brought the cats explained.

Before he finished speaking, Kimura Haoru was struck by lightning.

He suddenly felt that his life was so full of drama, and he was as lonely as a snow avalanche.

When he was 32 years old, Kimura Hiroshi received the "Golden Key Certification" issued by the Concierge organization. He is a famous person in the butler industry and the best among the best.

Throughout his life, he had received celebrities, wealthy businessmen and political figures from all over the world, and he had a wide social circle in the upper class.

But from this moment on, he officially became a shit shoveler.

For the new owner of the Blackstone Mansion, Hiroshi Kimura's resume that dwarfs his peers is as light as a feather, like a piece of waste paper.

The value of his existence seems to be to feed cats...

So, ten years passed in a flash.

Hiroshi Kimura has changed from a handsome uncle to a serious old man, but he has kept cats for ten years and has not seen the new owner of this official residence.

Originally, he thought that he might never see the crazy rich man who spent 100 million US dollars to buy a cattery again in his life.

But one day half a year ago, Kimura Hiroshi's life once again took an unexpected turn.
