Chapter 0526: Collecting Wealth
In just a few days, the news that the king was going to send troops to Kale County spread with lightning speed, and directly became the talk of nobles and merchants and travelers after tea and dinner.
At the same time, Renard, a new giant, has officially entered the national people's field of vision.
If you want to say what news spreads the fastest in the world, it must be gossip news, along with Lei Ye's fame, the gossip about him has also begun to go viral.
What His Majesty's henchman, the concubine of His Royal Highness the Princess, the prince of such and such a country.
All kinds of identities have been imposed on him, although there are many exaggerated ingredients, but tracing back to the source, some real materials are mixed in it, so it is difficult not to believe it.
Lei Ye stayed in the osmanthus workshop for five days after the end of the court, receiving the noble squires who came to visit him during the day, and ...... at night
Hey, hey!
On the sixth day, Lei Ye received a magic messenger from Nanhuang County, and the magic messenger brought Heidi's letter, with only a short line of small words in his heart: Get back quickly.
After reading the letter, Renard was like a lightning strike, and his murderous gaze quickly locked on Arka and Mark next to him.
The two were a little confused: Did they provoke each other?
Lei Ye wronged them this time, and no one reported to Heidi, but the shrewd strong woman herself sensed that something was wrong.
Renard sent a message back the day after the meeting, asking them to gather their forces and prepare to march on Kale County.
This shows that he has negotiated the conditions with the king, and according to Lei Ye's resolute character, he will definitely rush back to preside over the overall situation in the shortest possible time when the news is delivered.
However, everyone waited left and right for five days, and they still didn't see each other come back, isn't it a bit abnormal.
Heidi first ruled out the possibility of getting into trouble, after all, the three of them are not bad, and they all have the strength of quasi-epic warriors after taking drugs, Lei Ye is also protected by bloody knights, and there are very few people in Arthur's kingdom who can move him.
So she thought of other possibilities, in addition to force, the only thing that can make Lei Ye happy is Wen Rouxiang.
Heidi immediately thought of the bewitching Sylvia and guessed that it was the other party who made Lei Ye linger.
Although she can accept the relationship between the two with a big belly, it does not mean that she can be pot-bellied enough to let the two stay together, so this letter full of "killing intent" fell into the hands of Lei Ye.
Renard clearly knew that his trip to the royal capital was probably coming to an end.
On the seventh day, Lei Ye applied to Shangguan Wan'er and chartered the entire osmanthus workshop in his own name.
Then it's time to invite the guests and prepare for the grand opening of the banquet to see them off.
There are very few people like Lei Ye who blatantly accept bribes, after all, although the nobles are greedy, most of them still want to be faced.
However, Renard was not invited by everyone, and he invited either the nobles of the royal palace, the feudal officials, or the business magnates who had business all over the country.
Even with this choosing, there were as many as 200 guests, including the hated Viscount Neil, and this was probably the first invitation he received after his fame.
Osmanthus Fang has a great reputation in Arthur City, and there are countless tourists who come here every day, and when they hear that someone has chartered the entire Osmanthus Fang Hotel, tourists can not help but be a little surprised in addition to lamenting their bad luck.
If you want to charter the entire osmanthus workshop to entertain guests, the cost must be not small, and at the same time, you must have an extremely noble status.
Although the businessman has a lot of wealth, his social status is not very high, even if he wants to put down his arrogance in front of his friends, the owner of the osmanthus shop will not give accommodation, after all, it is rumored that the boss is behind the sky.
At the beginning, a wealthy man with a solid family wanted to spend 1,000 gold coins to celebrate his birthday, thinking that he would be able to get nine out of ten, but he still returned home.
However, it is not surprising that someone can win this honor today.
Of course, everyone was surprised and curious, and they wanted to know who this high roller was.
There are many gentry and magnates who come here every day to entertain guests, and these people immediately expressed their dissatisfaction after seeing the announcement posted at the door of the osmanthus fang, and they are also curious about who this chartered person is.
After many inquiries, they finally figured out Lei Ye's identity, so they all left quietly.
Of course, there are also people who don't know each other, and they have to hit the muzzle of the gun.
A small nobleman from the countryside came all the way to the royal capital to play, and originally wanted to lead his friends to eat and drink in the osmanthus fang, but he was stopped at the door.
The face is not exposed, and it is all lost.
He was so angry that he ordered someone to stay outside the door, so he had to see who the person who had chartered the osmanthus workshop.
He secretly swore that if the other party was just a nameless person, he would humiliate the other party fiercely and make up for the face he had lost.
The wealthy businessman in the same company frowned and asked, "Where did this come from, and what kind of celebration banquet can be held in the entire hotel?" ”
This merchant is in the grain business, and he made a lot of money during the shortage of materials during the Demon Calamity, and became a famous and wealthy merchant in Arthur's kingdom, and even got in touch with the Honeysuckle Chamber of Commerce, so he naturally has arrogant capital.
The nobleman snorted coldly: "It is estimated that he is a nouveau riche who has never seen much of the world, and he has exhausted his money to make a reputation, and when the money is spent, he will be driven away by the ashes." ”
When he said this, the little nobleman inadvertently glanced at the wealthy merchant and sneered secretly: There is also a face to say that others are dirt buns, and you yourself are about the same.
The other entourage chimed in: "That's right, the other party must be an upstart"
Listening to the discussion of these "friends", Haoshang frowned slightly, he hated the word nouveau riche, after all, he himself was a complete nouveau riche.
He turned his head to look at the men, and found the irony hidden in the depths of their eyes.
The wealthy merchant thought for a while, a sneer quickly flashed at the corner of his mouth, and said to the nobleman who was the first to speak: "Why don't you go and visit this nouveau riche and let him know the true appearance of the wealthy nobles." ”
As he spoke, he glanced at the person behind him, and immediately someone understood, stepped forward and said with a smile: "That's right, Viscount Hemingway should go in and let the other party see the demeanor of a real nobleman." ”
Hearing this, the onlookers of the good thing also began to clamor, with a look of excitement on their faces to see the excitement.
They seemed to have seen the embarrassed appearance of the country lord who had owned the osmanthus workshop, or the scene when the Viscount Hemingway was driven out with a disgraced face.
This viscount lord suddenly had some difficulty riding a tiger, he was still self-aware, how could he provoke the high-roller who could charter the osmanthus workshop, just took the opportunity to sarcastically mock the wealthy businessman next to him, but he didn't think about it, but he was roasted on the fire by the other party.
He pretended to mutter, "Well...... When people hold banquets, it's not good for us to disturb them after all. ”
After saying this, he clearly felt the disdain from the people around him.
