Chapter 399 Luxury Manor
Ming Xiangyang walked to her side, put his arm around her shoulder, and said with a hint of pride and anticipation, "This location faces the river, overlooks the entire city of Pengcheng on the right, and sees the Xiangjiang River on the left. Are you satisfied? I also built a racecourse on the back hill. I bought the whole hill."
Lu Cheng, who was standing to the side, spoke up calmly, his tone nonchalant: "Half of this is mine."
Upon hearing this, Ming Xiangyang's face showed a hint of helplessness: "Yes, we built it together."
Let's not talk about this. He originally wanted to build it himself, but Lu Cheng insisted on paying half the money. Otherwise, he would build another one exactly the same, making Lili run back and forth and suffer.
In the end, I had no choice but to accept his money.
Shen Li's gaze was suddenly drawn to a red "H" mark in the side parking area, and she exclaimed in surprise, "They even have a helipad here?"
Ming Xiangyang nodded in agreement, "Yes, we will definitely buy a private jet in the future, so that it will be more convenient to travel."
Shen Lisheng agreed: "You're right, otherwise it would indeed be quite a long drive into the city from here."
Ming Xiangyang immediately chimed in, "Then I'll set up a helicopter landing pad on the top floor of the Licheng Building as well."
Lu Zhou, growing anxious, quickly interjected, "No, you guys live here and have helicopters to get to work, but what about me?"
Lu Cheng glanced at him, his tone teasing: "Since you're in politics, you definitely can't take a private jet according to the rules. You can only travel by car, and it has to be your old model car. No special treatment."
Lu Zhou sighed heavily, looking at Shen Li with a wronged expression: "Sister Li, I think they did it on purpose! Why did I have to go into politics? Is it too late for me to switch to business now?"
Shen Li couldn't help but smile and gently comforted her, "It's okay, you can get up and leave earlier and get to work before the rush hour."
She silently calculated in her mind that even with fewer cars and better road conditions now, it would probably still take an hour to get from the mountain to the city.
When there are more cars in the future, it may take an hour and a half to get there during peak hours.
Lu Zhou listened with increasing sorrow, yet there was nothing he could do.
Ming Xiangyang ignored his grievances and pulled Shen Li's hand, walking into the castle: "Lili, ignore him, let's go in and take a look. If there's anything you're not satisfied with, I'll have it fixed immediately."
Shen Li was overjoyed to see the new house—not to mention in this life, even in her past life, she could never have sat in such a magnificent castle.
Normally, it can only be viewed as a tourist attraction.
We can appease my younger brother later; for now, we should focus on touring our new home.
The castle's first floor is actually as tall as the second floor of an ordinary building—cars drive up via ramps on both sides, and there's a spacious underground parking garage below.
Ming Xiangyang led everyone on a tour. The first floor was a huge reception room, while the kitchen and wine cellar were located on the basement floor.
Upon entering the first-floor lobby, the ultra-high ceiling design immediately catches the eye. Fortunately, the sofas placed there are high-end and elegant enough to perfectly support the style of the entire space.
If poorly designed, such a spacious place could easily appear cluttered and uncoordinated, but the layout and decoration here are exquisite and meticulous, leaving no room for criticism.
It took half an hour just to visit the first floor and the basement.
The group then went up to the second floor. Because a double-height space was to be reserved in the middle for the living room, only one bedroom was set up on each side of the second floor.
Each bedroom features a separate large bathroom and an extra-large walk-in closet, and each floor also has a dedicated gym, which is very thoughtful.
Ming Xiangyang looked at Shen Li and said in a gentle tone, "When your uncle and aunt come to visit in the future, they can stay on the second floor. It's quiet and convenient."
Shen Li nodded and replied, "Okay, that's very thoughtful."
The layout of the third floor is similar to that of the second floor, with a bedroom on each side and a double-height area in the middle. The living room on the first floor has a double-height ceiling equivalent to three floors, making it appear even more magnificent when viewed from the third floor.
The fourth floor is currently vacant and has no plans for future renovations as needed.
The fifth floor has four bedrooms, each spacious and bright, with exquisite decorations comparable to a presidential suite in a five-star hotel. From any angle, it is flawless.
Ming Xiangyang did not linger on the fifth floor and led everyone directly to the sixth floor—the castle had a total of six floors, each with a ceiling height of over four meters, and the space was exceptionally spacious.
The sixth floor is divided into two parts, left and right, with a huge gym in the middle. Standing in front of the gym's floor-to-ceiling windows, you can overlook the beautiful scenery of Pengcheng River, offering an excellent view.
Looking at the layout of the sixth floor, Shen Li asked curiously, "Are there only two bedrooms on the sixth floor?"
Ming Xiangyang nodded: "Okay, the one on the left is for the three of them, and the one on the right is for me. I was thinking of arranging your bedroom on the same floor as ours, so that if you need anything, you won't have to run up and down the stairs, which will be more convenient."
Shen Li felt a warmth in her heart and nodded with a smile: "The arrangements are very thoughtful, it's great."
"Which side should we look at first?" Ming Xiangyang asked.
Shen Ligang had just stood at the gym entrance and hadn't even had a chance to speak when Lu Cheng said first, "Let's look to the right first."
Shen Li readily agreed, "Okay."
The room on the right is Ming Xiangyang's bedroom. It is spacious, decorated in a simple and elegant style, and the facilities inside are all very advanced, making it almost impossible to find fault with it.
Shen Li thought that even watching projected movies in the future would be a piece of cake—all she had to do was take out a projector and a screen from her space; it was simple and convenient.
It should be noted that Ming Xiangyang usually doesn't concern himself with trivial matters like renovations unless the matter is of utmost importance. However, this time, the castle renovation was done with great care and he personally took care of everything, which made Shen Li extremely satisfied.
The materials here all exude the luxury of that era.
Even Shen Li, a person from later generations, doesn't look rustic.
The beds in the bedroom are even more extravagant; Ming Xiangyang's bed is 2.7 meters by 3 meters.
Lu Cheng's bed was even larger, measuring 2.7 meters by 4 meters, much more spacious than the bedroom of an average family.
Ming Xiangyang also specially set up Shen Li's main dressing room on his side, because Lu Cheng's side needed to accommodate the clothes of three men, requiring a larger dressing room space.
After visiting Ming Xiangyang's bedroom, Lu Cheng and Lu Zhou both showed satisfied expressions.
The bathroom design was also rationally planned according to the number of residents. Ming Xiangyang's side was only equipped with a small and exquisite bathtub, and there were only two washbasins.
Lu Cheng's side was equipped with four washbasins for the convenience of the three of them.
Standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window in the bedroom, looking down from above, the air on the mountaintop is fresh and pleasant, and the clear waters of the Xiangjiang River and the bustling scene of Shenzhen are all within sight, making one feel exceptionally relaxed.
After inspecting the two bedrooms, Shen Li turned to Ming Xiangyang, Lu Cheng, and Lu Zhou, her tone slightly teasing: "Alright, you've seen your bedrooms, so what about mine?"
Ming Xiangyang: "Huh?"
