"What do you want to do?" asked the old man Jones viciously, seeing Jones Nely's figure disappear into the corridor, the old man Jones could no longer hold back his curiosity, everyone knew that the fat man of Saemor was a character who never lost money, he would take revenge, his heart and eyes were not much bigger than the tip of a needle, and he tricked him once, this dead fat man was only afraid of hating himself for a while, and at this moment his appearance was so abnormal, which made the old man Jones feel a chill in his back
"I'm a good person!" the fat man replied with an innocent face, but his right hand habitually touched his stomach, which made Grand Duke Jones's heart cold, "It's over! It's in the pit!", the dead fat man is used to touching his stomach like this every time he has bad water in his mind,
"I suddenly changed my mind just now, I don't want that treasure of yours" The fat man blinked innocently, completely ignoring the pale face of Duke Jones, and continued with a dead face, "I think I'm in love with your daughter, really, you have to believe me, I'm an honest person, your daughter is like a beautiful tulip that drives me crazy"
"Do you want to marry my daughter?" Duke Jones's face was solemn, his fingers slightly supported his chin, and he said sternly, "Do you know what your decision means? We are a Duke's family, and it is not appropriate for you to propose marriage in such a frivolous manner" Grand Duke Jones's heart blossomed, but his expression was like an insulted father, trying his best to protect his face, "To marry the daughter of the Duke's family, not only must be courteous and thoughtful, but also get the approval of the royal family, which cannot be completed in a few days"
The fat man shook his hand innocently and defended, "Don't get me wrong, I'm not going to marry Jones Nelly right away" with a twisted red face, like a little boy who is just starting to fall in love, and whispered "I think we still need some time to get to know each other more deeply"
The fat man saw Duke Jones's fiery eyes, turned around embarrassedly and said, "Don't worry, I'm not a casual person!
"Get out!" Duke Jones, who was in a good mood just now, was almost vomited blood by the fat man, and it was better to watch a sow go up the tree than to see the despicable and shameless Fat Samour pretending to be innocent.
In the early morning of the next day, there was still a half-moon in the east sky, the sky was slightly white, the sun had not yet come out, the fat man pushed open the window of the room, the cool breeze made the fat man who was still a little confused refreshed, the young duke's housekeeper bowed respectfully with an apologetic face, and several beautiful maids stood behind him, holding a set of gorgeous aristocratic dresses in their hands
"Dear Boss Dustan, I'm sorry to bother you so early, this is Miss Jones Nelly's dress specially selected for you, Miss is going to go outside with you today to pick out the shop"
"Oh, dress" The fat man's eyebrows frowned slightly, and he flipped over the dress on the maid's hand with his hand, the satin with gold silk texture, the delicate and small gold buttons, and the corsage inlaid with white broken gems, which dazzled people, and saw the gorgeous and luxurious dress in front of him, the fat man's brain moved, and he secretly said, "My figure is wearing a gorgeous dress, and it is also a bandit, rather than making Miss Jones Nelly despised, it is better to have some of your own characteristics"
"I'm a merchant, not a nobleman, I'm not used to wearing this thing, thank you Miss Jones Nelly for your kindness!" the fat man casually pushed the dress away, took off his merchant clothes from the hanger and draped them over his body, "It's still more comfortable for me to wear such clothes."
For the fat man's refusal, the butler of the Duke's Mansion reluctantly led the way in front, and couldn't help pouting in his heart, "What a hillbilly, this is the tailor-made clothes of the royal tailors, and there are no more than twenty pieces of clothing in the entire Kyoto nobility, such clothes?"
The fat man followed the housekeeper to the front yard, and saw Jones Neely in a white dress standing elegantly at the door of the hall, and found that the fat man was still wearing that old set of businessman clothes, Jones Neely's face frowned slightly, and she glanced at the housekeeper with displeasure, and a charming smile appeared at the corner of her mouth to greet her, Jones Nees, who was wearing a white long dress, slipped over the moon flowers, and in the morning mist, like a flower goddess who fell to the mortal world, the delicate look, the fat man's heart was pounding
"It's really a shame to disturb Boss Dustan's sleep so early" Jones Nelly bent down slightly and saluted, "Because there is a very important matter today, you need to go with Boss Dustan to handle it, today is the day when the Samor Business Alliance is open for registration, some time ago, the Samore side announced that all Kyoto families who have business ties with Samor must go to the Kyoto branch to register before they are eligible to trade on the Kyoto route, and all those who fail to register within the time limit will be punished as smugglers!"
"Smuggler!" the fat man nodded slightly in surprise, "I've heard about this too, but I didn't expect it to be so important."
In fact, the fat man not only knows, but also knows very well, this decree was signed by the fat man himself, the Kyoto route fattened the Samorian merchants, but also fattened the smuggling rampant Kyoto private army nobles, the fat man used to have nothing to do with the Kyoto smugglers,
However, now that the entire business line falls under the jurisdiction of Samor, if the smugglers in Kyoto are not cracked down, the interests of other merchants with Samor's official visas will inevitably suffer heavy losses.
This is not only a matter of business alliances, it is a big problem that shakes the business visa system of Samore and the integrity of the Samar regime, the fat man signed a trade registration order half a month ago, and the garrison along the way will seize all the goods according to the crime of smuggling if any caravan in Kyoto is found to be unregistered.
"Hey, what's going on" The fat man sat in the carriage and sighed sadly, "I signed the order myself, I was busy, why is my life so bitter!",
Looking at the sparse pedestrians outside, thinking of the old Jones liar before getting on the bus, seeing the old Jones liar with a smile on his face, the fat man had an urge to smoke people, this time the Jones family dispatched two carriages, which made the fat man want to squeeze in a car with Jones Nery
As the carriage turned into the South Street where the Samore Governor's Mansion was located, the fat man saw that the crowd outside was gradually increasing, early in the morning, there were already a lot of noble carriages parked at the door of the Beijing branch of the Commercial Alliance, and a team of heavily armed Samore soldiers with spears in their hands stood at the door murderously to maintain order, it seems that the Commercial Alliance has been prepared for the crowded situation that may occur today.
That kind of bloody momentum made many nobles dare not approach, one by one probes their brains, full of curiosity only to look this way, the fat man can be seen from the emblem on the soldier's black armor, it should be the third flag regiment led by Lidarchus,
Most of this force is responsible for the logistics of Samore and the security of the trade routes, this time in order to better supervise the construction progress of the Governor's Palace and the four commercial streets, the fat man specially allowed Lidakus to lead 1,000 soldiers of the Third Banner Regiment into Beijing, and after the Governor's Palace was built, it will be replaced by the Samar Guard.
Seeing the carriage with the tulip pattern emblem embroidered with gold wire on the edge of the coat of arms driving into the street, there was a lot of commotion among the nobles waiting around, and the embroidered gold wire was a family patent at the duke-level level, there were viscounts, barons, and even the marquis family, but the duke's family was the first
"It seems to be the crest of the Jones family!" some nobles who knew the details whispered, "Aren't they poor and have only one manor left, how can they still have the money to wade into this troubled water?"
"There is no money, but there are people" Some nobles discussed with strange faces, "The family of the first beautiful woman in the north is not called in vain, I heard that it was the old duke who refused the royal marriage request, and was retaliated against! Maybe we have the honor of seeing the first beauty in the north, Jones Nelly."
"You mean the first beauty of the North, Jones Nelly is here?" the nobles began to get excited, and they gathered around with passion, staring at the carriage that had just stopped,
"Squeak" In the eager eyes of the nobles, a car door slowly opened, everyone held their breath, staring excitedly, a fair-skinned "pig leg" trembled and appeared at the door of the carriage, and a fragment of his eyes fell on the ground, and the fat man was startled by the enthusiastic crowd outside the carriage, and scolded with a displeased face, "Damn, I haven't seen a man!"
"Captain Lidarchus Banner has arrived!" Just as the gang was doing their best, a carriage inlaid with white thorn coats of arms stopped at the door of the commercial alliance, and the nearby Samor soldiers who were responsible for maintaining order immediately made way for the carriage, and the old acquaintance Lidarchus pushed open the carriage door, and his eyes were fixed on the fat man who was in the spotlight
"Your Excellency!" Lidarchus stopped in mid-air as he dismounted, his mouth wide open enough to swallow an apple, and he almost fell down on his feet when he stepped out of the carriage
