Ultimate Assassin System
Memorize Chapter 015
The party was still going on, amid the sound of soft music, servants in neat uniforms shuttled back and forth among the guests with wine trays, and young noblemen raised their glasses to drink with others from time to time.
This is a scene that often appears in aristocratic gatherings, and it is no wonder that an old earl sighed: the life of the so-called aristocrats is mostly spent clinking glasses with each other to pass the time.
Crack, crack, crack...
Vincent slapped his palms twice suddenly: All beautiful ladies and handsome gentlemen, please be quiet.
Seeing that everyone turned their gazes over, Vincent said with satisfaction: The following is the theme of this party... We invite Mr. Dimon, the harp master of Laiyan City, to play for us, everyone is welcome.
clap clap...
Judging from the enthusiastic response of everyone, this Mr. Dimon is undoubtedly very popular with noble youths.
Amidst the applause, an attractive middle-aged man with long curly hair came out of the side hall and bowed to everyone.
After the ceremony, Dimon pressed his hands empty, and the applause gradually died down.
For a moment, a burst of brisk music poured out from Dimon's fingers.
The melody is dexterous and the artistic conception is extravagant, just like a lover's rich and jade hands constantly provoking the desire in people's hearts. The expressions of the young people appeared vivid and abnormal with the rise and fall of the tune, and they seemed to be enjoying it very much.
Vincent seemed to have put a lot of effort into it. He was pointing at Dimon's harp and introducing something to Josiah in a low voice. The people around him kept nodding their heads and seemed to agree with his point of view.
Tang En was a layman when it came to music, so naturally he couldn't understand what was expressed in it. He just thought the tune was coherent and comfortable.
This music... is the chapter of the God of Love? Hehe, Vincent really put in so much effort. A young nobleman next to Tang En raised his glass and laughed.
That's natural. This Josiah is good-looking. Although the family is just a baron without a fief, she is a junior magician. From this point of view, if the two can really get married, Vincent's family will definitely Got it.
Yeah, the identity of a magician is really eye-catching... A noble young man with freckles sighed with emotion, and then asked in doubt: But Vincent is just the eldest son of the Viscount Derk's family, how can he snatch him? What about the opportunity?
You don't know, the Derk family and the Chloe family are old. Later, the Chloe family was not good at management, so it fell, and the two families did not communicate often. But after Josiah was confirmed With the status of a magician, the two families have started to communicate frequently again, so Vincent is naturally close to the water...
So that's it. This kid is really lucky. It seems that the status of the Derk family will be improved again!
Yes... Several people echoed.
Hey, superficial. You guys only see the surface and don't know the key inside. The benefits the Derk family has gained are far more than that. At this time, a gloomy young man suddenly said.
Oh? Do you have any profound insights? You might as well say it, so that we can see it... The young man spoke rather bluntly, and someone sneered back.
The gloomy young man looked disdainfully at the man who replied: Tell me, what is the most concerned thing in Laiyan City now?
The thing I'm most concerned about... um, was the baroness in Xicheng District who caught rape on the spot a few days ago? said the freckled youth.
……no.
Which noble lady was caught having an affair?
...
The gloomy young man slapped his head speechlessly, and said weakly: It's the expansion of the pier...
Oh, that's it. I heard that Nangang is going to expand 24 piers. But what does this have to do with the Delk family?
It didn't matter in the past, but now it's hard to say. The young man said: Everyone knows the interests of the wharf. It is an assembly line for the production of gold coins. When the South Port was first built, the chaos was all about competing for the wharf. right of ownership?
Seeing everyone staring at him with fascination, the young man's vanity was greatly satisfied, and he continued: Now there are 24 new piers, and the distribution of benefits among them is undoubtedly the most important thing. There are four earl families in Laiyan City. Well, they undoubtedly want to take the majority of the profits. But they eat meat, and they always have to leave some soup for others, otherwise the tragedy in Nangang will repeat itself.
I reckon that at least ten piers will be given up to other forces to compete for. There must be dozens of families with some strength in Laiyan City. It is obvious that there are too many people and less meat. Naturally, at this time, each will rely on his own wrist.
Although the Derk family is small and powerful, they don't have any outstanding advantages. Most of them want to grab a pier depends on luck. But if Vincent marries Josiah, the situation will be different. Not only will there be a new star noble Support, and Josiah still has the identity of a magician, which is a double weight. In this way, the Derk family will definitely win the battle for the pier.
With the gold coin production line at the wharf, and the escort of long-lived magicians, why is the Derk family not prosperous?
Hiss... makes sense, makes sense! After listening to your words, this party will not be in vain. People around echoed and looked at the gloomy young man with admiration.
The young man pursed his lips slightly, with a far-sighted expression, and waved his hand to indicate that it was nothing. These ignorant idiots, who know how to drink and play with women all day long, don't even know about the bad news on the street...It made me famous for nothing.
Thinking of the young people around him who scattered his name and words in various gatherings, the gloomy young man couldn't help but feel more complacent.
I said, why doesn't this Vincent go to brothels with us recently? So that's the reason... the freckled young man looked at Vincent who was working hard and said with envy.
Hmph, it's too early to say this, you see Josiah obviously doesn't like him...
Yo, so you want to go up and try?
Hehe, fair competition...
…………
Tsk tsk, I didn't expect Josiah to be quite popular, Tang En said with emotion after hearing what the group of noble youths said.
After he initially understood how precious and rare magicians are, he had already considered their status and importance high enough, but now it seems that it is far from enough.
The song closed, and the warm applause sounded again.
At this time, a man who looked like a housekeeper came to Wen Sen and said something in his ear.
Vincent's face gradually became excited, and after the applause ended, he couldn't wait to say: I want to tell you a piece of good news. His Excellency Robert Bevin is outside the manor. Come with me to greet him.
boom……
The voice fell. Everyone was in an uproar, and the atmosphere in the hall was instantly lifted.
Big shot? Seeing the people around him exclaiming incessantly, Tang En secretly guessed.
Immediately, he knew the identity of Robert Bevin from the heated discussion.
The Robert family is one of the four earl families in Rhine City, among which Earl Robert is the current lord of Laiyan City. And this Bevin was the earl's second son.
Generally speaking, the second son has no right of inheritance. But this Robert family is a bit special.
From the casual discussions of the surrounding people, Tang En learned that the eldest son of Robert's family didn't seem to like the earl, but the second son, Bevin, was valued by the earl, and now he had started to help the earl handle the city's government affairs. It looks like the next city lord.
Such a special person is obviously worth making friends with young nobles. If they really get the friendship of the future city lord, there is no need to worry about the future development of the family in Laiyan City.
Probably everyone thought of this, so the party hall was instantly emptied, and everyone followed Vincent to meet Robert Bevan outside the manor.
