Wall Street Legend

  Chapter 165 Rockefeller Manor

  Specially looking for a road that is not congested, Ye Dongqing hasn't bought a helicopter yet, and didn't bother to spend time renting another one, so she crossed the East River from Queens and headed for the upper reaches of the Hudson River.

Opened a bottle of red wine from the car's small wine cabinet, and the three of them shared a cup in their hands. Romanee-Conti, who was more than ten years ago, occasionally drank some wine recently. Ye Dongqing asked a wine merchant to help him purchase a small batch , this is one of them. To be honest, apart from the high price, you can't drink other flavors. Whiskey is Ye Dongqing's favorite.

He sat in the passenger seat, and Laura and her new friend Renee sat in the large rear seat. Renee tried to look as elegant as possible, like a face changer, no more luxury, gossip, or Continue to mock Laura, try to show the most elegant and charming side, at this moment he said in a calm tone: "Very good red wine, my father once photographed a barrel of red wine with a history of 80 years, but unfortunately I can't drank."

Hearing this sound, Laura felt uncomfortable all over, and suddenly felt that her neighbors were scary, like a copy of those Upper East Side socialites in the TV series, who knew how to use their own advantages, such as the neckline, which was completely covered before, At some point, it was pulled down by Renee herself, almost revealing half of it.

   It's hard to believe that this "elegant", "knowledgeable" and "caring" woman just complained for hours on the plane, and even asked the flight attendant to clean up the blackheads to avoid making herself look uncomfortable.

   Annoyed and wanting to laugh, because Laura sees that Renee is actually trying to seduce Dongqing Ye, especially after hearing that he is the creator of Facebook, which someone recently tried to buy for $400 million.

"I seldom drink red wine, and I can't accept the bitter taste. My friend told me that there will be a party for young people in the evening. If you like hunting or riding horses, you can have someone take you there tomorrow. It doesn't matter if you stay a few more days. I At that time, I will leave first, and there is something in Silicon Valley that I need to deal with."

This is a vaccination in advance, because Miss Marci will fly over from Paris tomorrow, and Ye Dongqing hasn't figured out how to explain it to Laura. Speaking of which, he and Laura are not in a relationship. Neither is the Miss Marci I know in the Bahamas, and it seems that there is no need to explain anything.

   Renee only knew that she was going to the party, but she didn't know the details, so she asked him at this time: "So where are we going now, this is not the direction to the city, right?"

   "That's right, let's go to Westchester County first."

   "Westchester County? Why do you want to go there?" As a New Yorker who grew up in Manhattan, Laura naturally knew what was there, and her tone was slightly surprised.

   "A member of the Rockefeller family invited me to play in the past. I am very interested. You should like it too."

   "Wow, God, is it the Rockefeller family I know?" Renee was shocked.

   "There is only one Rockefeller family in the United States, and it is right..."

  Richard Rockefeller held a party in person for the first time in his life, and Ye Dongqing was just one of the more important guests.

  In high society, a party is not just a party, but also reflects the ability of the party host. Because of his popularity, he has quite a lot of friends, and he is happy to come and visit.

The Rockefeller Manor originally covered an area of ​​3,400 acres, but was later split up. Part of it was donated to the government and charitable foundations. Ordinary people can also come and visit. Neither Ye Dongqing nor Laura have been here. The schools they attend are terrible, and they don't bother to organize students to come and visit.

The entire estate includes seventy-five buildings, seventy private roads, sculpture gardens, underground art galleries, playgrounds for children, a nine-hole golf course, farms, large wild forest parks and several lakes, and An artificial swan lake given to his wife by Rockefeller.

It is said that it was donated, but the descendants of the Rockefeller family still enjoy the right to use a large number of facilities. Together with their private guards, gardeners, motorcades, and servants, it is like a small self-sufficient country. Therefore, there was a saying: "If God had that much money, God would build a dwelling like this."

The Rockefeller family has spent a lot of money to operate here for more than a hundred years. The classics reveal luxury. Up to now, there are still ten small Rockefeller families living here. The main line that Richard Rockefeller belongs to is only one of them. In the luxurious villa where John D. Rockefeller lived, the walls were covered by green plants, and there were two rows of trees and fountains in front of the door. The garden was very European.

After asking the driver to drive around, Ye Dongqing had more ideas in her mind. The idea of ​​taking care of the 48-acre island was smaller than the Rockefeller family's estate. The architectural design firm in charge of the renovation, ask them to send someone to come here to have a look.

  Build it according to similar ideas, add a sculpture garden, and a small private museum. When he has money, he thinks he will buy some artworks and put them in it. I soon received a reply saying that I would take a look and recreate the planning and design drawings.

  There are quite a lot of luxury cars on the roadside. He finally saw the second Rolls-Royce Phantom with a Rhode Island license plate. The body is white, not as good-looking as black, but it is not bad.

There are too many wealthy Americans. For example, an antique Ferrari 290MM with "600" written on the body may be able to exchange it for ten Bugatti supercars that have not yet been officially delivered. If you run away, you can easily fetch a high price of at least 20 million U.S. dollars. Ye Dongqing has no doubts about this.

  Called Richard after getting off the car, he went out to receive Ye Dongqing himself, Laura just couldn't help but look at each other, and Renee was so excited that she almost fainted, she kept winking while shaking hands.

  Richard seemed quite interested, winked at Ye Dongqing and said, "Let me introduce you?"

   "This is my former secretary, Laura, who is about to go to England for university, and Miss Renee is a new friend Laura just met in England, and she just came to New York for a trip."

The meaning is obvious, Laura is his female companion, Renee can hook up at will, Richard heard these meanings, immediately changed his attitude, smiled and said to Renee: "Please call me Richard, later Interested in playing golf together? I love your British accent, my mother is actually British."

Renee suddenly smiled happier: "Thank you, my father also owns an oil company, but it's not that big, it's just a small company, and it's been listed in London for many years. But that's not the point, I like your manor, it feels like Queen's Palace."

  Ye Dongqing and Laura looked at each other and smiled. They both thought the scene was interesting, and they could be regarded as **** looking at mung beans and meeting eyes...
