Chapter 86 Appreciation?

"Ramos, do your family still live in Derbyshire?"

Barron said to Ramos, who was driving on the way to King's Cross.

"Yes, Your Majesty the Duke, my wife and children still live in the town of Bakewell in Derbyshire, not far from the manor."

"Then you don't get together much now."

Because Barron spends most of his time in London now, and only occasionally returns to Chatsworth Manor, Ramos, as his valet and driver, is almost always by his side, so it seems that he There is very little time to spend with family.

"It's okay, sir. After all, work is the most important thing."

"Have you ever thought about bringing them to London? This way you will have a lot more time together, and after all, the educational conditions here are better..."

I am afraid that Barron will mainly be in London for a long time, so he said this to Ramos.

After such a long period of contact, he found that his valet was still very reliable and calm. As a person around him, Barron would definitely think more about it - and at this time, Ramos had a valet. From his two jobs as a driver, his monthly income has reached 10,000 pounds, which can be said to be a relatively high income in the whole of England, even here in London, and he can fully afford his family's expenses in London.

"Thank you, Lord Duke. I have actually considered this, but it is not easy to rent a suitable house in London. I have been keeping an eye on it."

This is indeed true. After all, as a valet, Ramos can be said to have his own time, often only at night. Barron used to live in a wealthy area like Kensington. If he wanted a timely response, Then you must not live too far away - renting a house itself requires a slow selection process.

"I will be staying at the Devonshire Hotel for the past month. If you bring your family to London, I can ask the hotel to provide you with a room first. As you know, the hotel will not be open for the time being. You can live here until then... You can pay attention to the surrounding houses during this period. In terms of rent, I will ask Yulia to give you a rental subsidy of 1,000 pounds each month. "

Since he wanted to help his valet stabilize the family, Barron would do it directly. He continued:

"And it's almost time for the new semester to start. Your son is still in elementary school, right?"

"Yes, Your Highness the Duke."

"Well, then I will help you find a good school for him to receive a better education."

"Thank you very much, Lord Duke."

Ramos said with gratitude after hearing that the Duke had thought so much about himself.

"You've earned it for your dedicated work, Ramos."

…

I have to say that Barron felt a little uncomfortable seeing Viscount Bute again.

This is not because he had some "friendship" with the Viscountess, but that night at Chatsworth Manor, when he and the Viscountess were studying together late at night, he also learned something - related The reason why this enchanting Viscountess was still a virgin the last time.

Well, in fact, this matter is not a big deal among the British nobles, because Viscount Bute has the hobbies of some nobles...

This made Barron suddenly realize something.

From Chris's mouth, Barron also learned the news that made him a little uncomfortable today, that is, the Viscount seemed to "appreciate" himself very much.

"Do you really think he cares about whether I have another man? He actually acquiesces to this, and even revealed that he wants me and his personal servant..."

At that time, Chris had an expression of disgust on her face, and she turned to Barron and said sarcastically:

"I'm afraid if he knew what happened between me and you, he might be even happier. After all, he has always been treating you..."

God, I have to say, although in his previous life, Barron thought he was a scumbag, but now among the nobles in England, there was Viscount Bute who had a... unique taste, and later there was Prince William. ...Well, my friend whose favorite learning method can also scare Sasha away...

Barron felt that he was a little out of place because he was too normal.

"In his eyes, I am just a tool to continue the family..."

There was a hint of sadness in Chris’s words at that time:

"He hasn't even touched me, don't you think? Your Highness the Duke... But as the eldest son of the family, if he wants to inherit the family business in the future, he must first have a descendant. This is his father's request for him, so this That’s what he wants from me.”

Huh? What did I hear? Is it the kind of thing where you plant a seed and reap the fruits? ?

Then wouldn’t he have become a tool...

As if she could see what Barron was thinking, Chris gave him a roll of her eyes:

"For nobles, the blood of the first child is the most important, so if I have your child, Your Highness, it will definitely not be the first child... You know, in Eastern Europe, for example It's easy to find a 'container' in Ukraine and Ian has sent people there to find a suitable girl who will soon be brought back to London to help us have our first child."

…

"Your Highness, King's Cross Station is in front of us. In the next two years, it will undergo an overall renovation to restore its previous appearance and update the facilities. And further away, St. Pancras Railway Station has arrived. It will be completed next year and will serve as the London terminal for the Eurostar train. By then, King's Cross will have become a transportation hub radiating throughout the UK and even Europe."

After meeting Viscount Bute, Barron quickly adjusted his mentality. After all, no matter what the other party did, he would definitely not rise to the challenge anyway. He seriously liked women...

After a month of repeated confrontations, the urban renewal plan for King's Cross has finally been approved by the Kenton Borough and the London City Government and is officially about to begin.

As they said before, after Argent Real Estate Group made some concessions to KXCAAC, the representative organization of local residents, and promised to reduce the ratio of office space and luxury homes and build more low-rent housing, it did not specifically commit to the quantity of these. , and then after coming up with the “real” urban renewal plan they had originally prepared, an agreement was reached.

"In fact, don't think that the KXCAAC organization really represents those poor people. Those led by them just need a gesture to gain the support of residents. We give them a little sweetness, and basically everything will be smooth. There is no obstacle, in democracy, voice is more important than facts!”
