Chapter 461: Owner of the Castle

~13 min read 2,578 words

Opening the big door, the first thing that entered her sight was the spacious hall inside the castle, with exquisite crystal chandeliers hanging everywhere.

Originally, Luo Quan thought this would be a castle with an old-fashioned style, but she didn't expect that while the exterior looked so simple and unadorned, the decoration inside was so modern and magnificent.

The only fly in the ointment was that after she walked in, no maid came over to shout "Goshiki-sama" (Japanese: Master) at her.

If there were really a few beautiful girls in black and white maid outfits in the castle, that would definitely be a pleasing sight. It's a pity that all Luo Quan saw were middle-aged women with an average age of over forty.

Their smiles were like sunflowers blooming in the fields, just as bright, and their faces were just as big.

This reminded her of the hostess who often appeared in "Tom and Jerry", and the two had a surprisingly consistent rich figure.

These maids still smiled and nodded to her when they saw her, and Luo Quan also nodded back in a very approachable manner.

"There are seventy-nine rooms in the castle, two floors above ground and one floor underground. They are all opened. You can go in and check at any time, Miss Luo Quan." Butler Ma Er said while walking.

Luo Quan was confused: "Check what?"

"Actually, the Master had the idea of giving this castle to you a long time ago. Since last year, he has sent people to redesign the decoration of the castle. In addition, he also bought some things that young people like and put them in the storage room in the castle."

"How much is 'some'?" Luo Quan's heart became hot. Her grandfather was extremely wealthy. Since it was a gift he prepared, it would definitely not be bad.

Butler Ma Er smiled slightly: "To be precise, it should be a lot."

"The Master himself actually has no interest in collecting art. The ones he bought before were just to follow the trend. He has always felt that these external things cannot be brought at birth and cannot be taken away at death. However, for you, Miss Luo Quan, or other young masters and young ladies, he is very willing to spend money."

"I remember when Young Master Gao Liang had his eighteenth birthday, Young Master Gao Liang said he liked Gundam, and then the Master asked a factory to build a Gundam."

"However, this Gundam is only ten meters high, and it's more like a large excavator with two long arms to operate. It is now placed in a farm warehouse of Young Master Eric in California."

"There is such a thing? Gao Liang never said it!" Luo Quan was stunned. She didn't expect that her younger brother's birthday gift was so fierce. Compared to the castle, she wanted to own such a Gundam even more!

Luo Quan was surprised, and the fans in the live streaming room were even more surprised than her:

"Enough, no matter how difficult life is, I can hold on, but every time I hear these things, I feel so uncomfortable that I want to cry."

"I used to think that rich people must eat Michelin for every meal, every piece of clothing is Hermes, and all the cars they drive are Lamborghini."

"Now it seems that this is as funny as farmers discussing whether the emperor uses a golden hoe or a silver hoe to dig the ground."

"Perhaps, this is the gap of the world."

Taking a look at the complaints in the bullet comments, Luo Quan laughed: "So students, you must study hard. Without considering the situation of winning the billion-dollar lottery, studying is the only way for us to change our destiny!"

The topic suddenly came to studying. Luo Quan looked at the butler: "Butler Ma Er, did grandfather prepare some books or something for me?"

Ma Er nodded: "Yes, the Master specially prepared a library for you. Do you want to go and see it now?"

"Then let's go."

Luo Quan held her phone and followed behind the butler.

The two passed through the hall, and behind the hall, there was a spiral stone staircase.

At the beginning, it was quite spacious, but the further they walked, the narrower it became. Finally, the stairs were directly sandwiched between two walls. Most castle stairs were basically like this.

After arriving on the second floor, three passages appeared in front of Luo Quan, one on the left, one on the right, and one in front. They all looked very long.

"Going straight is the bedroom for the owner and relatives. The right side used to be a utility room, but in order to receive tourists, a few have been transformed into bedrooms. The left side is various storage rooms." Ma Er stood at the intersection and explained to Luo Quan.

Luo Quan laughed: "And various storage rooms, so it seems that grandfather has prepared quite a lot of things for me."

"It is indeed a lot." Butler Ma Er showed a smile and then walked straight to the end of the left passage: "This is the library that the Master prepared for you, Miss Luo Quan."

Saying that, Butler Ma Er opened the door, revealing the true appearance inside.

Even though Luo Quan had been exposed to many high-end house decorations over the years, she was shocked by the scene in front of her.

Looking at the small door, after opening it, it was actually a spacious room of more than fifty square meters. Three rows of large bookshelves more than one person high were placed on the left, middle, and right, and they were densely packed with books.

Luo Quan took a light breath, and her chest was filled with a rich fragrance of books.

In the center of the room, there was a circular sofa with a radius of two meters, with a few chairs next to it. Further inside, there was a desk, and a desktop computer with three screens that looked very high-end was placed on the desk. Although it was not turned on, the host flashing with colorful light and that eye-catching eye all reflected its sense of technology.

Luo Quan didn't speak. She left all the opportunities for emotion to the fans and let them play freely:

"Is this a study room? What's the difference from a library?"

"Oh, this damn fascinating 'Eye of the Prodigal'!"

"Needless to say, such a large host, those rows of logos, the graphics card configuration must be four-way crossfire 2080ti!"

"Putting such an awesome computer in such an awesome study room, then these books are really just decorations."

"Give me food and drink, and a wifi, I can stay in here for a year!"

"The old man knows too well what young people like. This host is too much to my liking."

"Wake up, this is Luo Quan's."

"Isn't the wife's mine... Hahaha, let go of me, I'm not crazy."

"There is no cure, where is the doctor, hurry up and take this person away."

Although this library and this host were both quite awesome, as the fans said, with a computer placed here, who would be in the mood to read?

Luo Quan walked to the bookshelf and took out one at random. The book title was "Thus Spoke Zarathustra", a classic work by the philosopher Nietzsche, all in English, quite new, presumably newly printed.

With the old man's "rich and inhuman" style, the books on these shelves should be brand-new versions he directly asked the printing factory to print.

Touching the smooth paper pages of this book, although she could understand the English on it, it seemed very obscure when put together.

With her English level, she had long reached the level of simultaneous interpretation. However, philosophy had always been a relatively difficult and complex subject, especially this kind of English original version without translation. For a philosophy novice like her, the difficulty of wanting to understand it at first glance was not generally high.

However, in order to pretend to have depth, she still pretended to be quite interested in philosophy and looked at the book.

"Can you understand it?"

"Stop pretending, the difficulty of this thing is no lower than mathematics."

"In this world, relatives and lovers may deceive you, but only mathematics will not, because if mathematics doesn't know, it doesn't know."

"Just glanced at it, it's Nietzsche's 'Thus Spoke Zarathustra', a very good book. Since I used it to pad my table leg, the table has never been crooked again."

"If Nietzsche knew about this, I wonder if he would give you a gaze into the abyss?"

A burst of ridicule in the bullet comments also made Luo Quan, who was pretending to be deep, directly break her defense: "Oh, alright, isn't it just pretending to be learned? They say 'strike it rich and establish a brand'. Now that I have money, can't I make myself look like a learned person?"

After finishing, Luo Quan closed the book, returned it to its original place, and sighed: "Sure enough, people like us vulgar people can't have much interest in the ladder of human progress. The wisdom of the sages is not something that can be understood by a blockhead like me..."

Her eyes looked at the butler: "Butler Ma Er, are there any collections in other storage rooms that are more suitable for a vulgar person like me?"

"Of course there are." Butler Ma Er was amused by Luo Quan's statement, "However, you are not a vulgar person, Miss Luo Quan. Your taste has always been quite high, whether it is fashion or art."

Once hearing Butler Ma Er praise her fashion taste, the fans in the bullet comments almost laughed their teeth off:

"Is the 'urban-rural fringe' also fashion?"

"To be honest, although Luo Quan's appearance is unparalleled in the world, her early clothing taste was no better than a village girl."

"Since you have gained the world with your appearance, why bother to dress blindly and mess up your youth."

"Temperament is temperament, clothing taste is clothing taste, okay? This child Luo Quan has looked like a princess since she was a child."

"It depends on the situation, the A-yi-tu-bie princess is also a princess."

For complaining about Luo Quan, the fans in the bullet comments have never been merciless.

When blowing her, they would blow her to the sky, but when belittling her, they would also seek truth from facts without any fan filters. Like their idol, it highlights a kind of truth, real.

Although she was complained about by fans to the point of being bruised and swollen, every sentence was indeed based on facts. Luo Quan's early dressing style was indeed no different from a poor loser.

Sloppy and wasting things was the evaluation of her by the fashion circle when she first became famous.

Although after signing with Chanel, her dressing style took a 180-degree turn, transforming from a fashion insulator to a fashion darling.

On the one hand, it was inseparable from her appearance, and on the other hand, it was also the credit of the joint efforts of Chanel stylists and photographers.

And she was just copying the homework.

Having said that, with her appearance, as long as she dresses normally, it will make people feel very fashionable and high-end. Now she is just not letting herself go as much as she did at the beginning.

However, although the fact is like this, whether Luo Quan is willing to accept it is another matter. After all, this is her live streaming room:

"Whoever complains about me again, I will directly give you a 30-day ban package!"

She, who holds the power of life and death, is just so willful. Once the threat came out, the live streaming room was suddenly peaceful, but under the overwhelming flattery, there were countless people who dared to be angry but dared not speak.

After declaring sovereignty, Luo Quan and Butler Ma Er changed locations, from the elegant library to the vulgar storage room prepared for her by her grandfather.

The second room was larger than the previous one, with more than eighty square meters. In this rectangular room, one piece of high-end custom clothing after another filled the 40-meter-long wall.

Note that these clothes were not hung horizontally on hangers; that would take up too much space.

Like most ordinary families, these clothes were folded together vertically against the wall, densely packed and scaly.

This room almost concentrated all the classic styles of all high-end custom brands in Europe!

Besides high-end custom, there were also many subversive works that had set off huge reform waves in the fashion circle, all of which were the best of the best.

And these exquisite clothes just surrounded the walls of this storage room, far from filling such a large space.

In the center of the room, there were also one huge glass cabinet after another, in which lay pairs of exquisite shoes, pieces of shining jewelry, and watches with handsome shapes.

Those whose brands she could name, those whose brands she couldn't name, those popular in the market, those not in the market.

In this storage room, almost all of them could be seen.

At this moment, Luo Quan was like Granny Liu entering the Grand View Garden, panicked and at a loss.

With her shallow knowledge of luxury goods, she didn't know much about the brands of most of the things in this room, she just felt that these things were very beautiful and looked luxurious.

But wanting her to explain one, two, three, that was too difficult for her.

"Everyone, just watch quietly. I don't have any special understanding of these things, and I can't explain them." Luo Quan stood in front of the watch glass cabinet. Among so many famous watches, she only recognized a Rolex.

As for the others like Patek Philippe, Blancpain, Vacheron Constantin, she only knew there were such brands after looking at the bullet comments.

"Is this the King's Treasury?"

"Can these things be worth 100 million US dollars together?"

"I'm afraid it's more than that. Just those watches just now, styles worth more than a million US dollars are placed there row by row, looking scary."

"Many things here cannot be bought with money. Some are simply out of print and there has long been no way to buy them, but here they can appear so complete, which shows how hard Luo Quan's grandfather's connections are!"

"Old money is still top-notch, and the Albert family is not just simple old money. The family background born from this combination of new and old capital is really outrageously thick."

"Alright, today's castle exploration session ends here." At the moment when the atmosphere reached its hottest, Luo Quan chose to terminate this trip of showing off wealth.

Actually, even she herself didn't expect that the "vulgar things" prepared for her by her grandfather could be so many. A room full of sky-high luxury goods, besides being extravagant, she didn't know how to describe it.

She was afraid that if she continued to show off, she would be criticized.

After finishing, Luo Quan turned off the live streaming room, but the discussion caused by this wealth-showing live stream still stirred up quite a few waves.

Fortunately, no one criticized Luo Quan because of this. ===== CHAPTER 462 =====
