Chapter Ninety-One: The Black Cocktail Party
Dusk in the port of low tide
Hundreds of luxurious carriages are parked in the circular square, which is almost like an exhibition of famous imperial cars, and the carriages of various brands and styles and materials are crowded together like ladies at a drinking party. The carriages in the most conspicuous position even emitted faint magic fluctuations, you know, the carriages that can be inlaid with magic arrays on the body of the carriages, each of them will not be worth less than three thousand gold coins, which is almost a year's tax of an ordinary imperial town. The concentration of high-class carriages of this caliber is not easy to see even in several of the most famous and bustling metropolises of the Empire.
Although the history of Tidetide Harbor is short, its unique geographical location and a group of merchants with a keen sense of money have made it an extraordinarily wealthy trading port in just a few decades. But this is a "remote place" that has not yet attracted the attention of the upper echelons of the empire, and it is precisely because there are not too many stupid and stubborn aristocratic lords who dictate and exploit and suck blood, that this place can maintain its current prosperity and spread. So this is also the fundamental reason why Sir Bero has such a position in Tideport, as long as he is there, the Empire will measure this seaport town by his standards, in other words, in their eyes this is just a barren land on the verge of decline, and they can't see the true value of this seaport town at all.
At least, so far
The reason why there are such luxury carriages on the scale of the imperial capital gathered in this town square is because a grand drinking party is about to be held here, because the host is none other than the mayor of this town, Nessero. and the president of the Chamber of Commerce Alliance, the two of them can be said to be the most powerful people in the face of the Rising Tide Harbor, so the scale of this banquet is naturally incomparable. The leaders of the chambers of commerce, large and small, and the gang leaders of the entire Tideport have all come, of course, the fairy tale circus did not receive their invitation, after all, this kind of scene is not something that a lowly artist like them can attend, but also because of these local forces in Tideport. Instinctively rejects all foreign forces, including various professional guilds and mercenary groups that were previously purged by fairy tales. Even the Survey Corps is on the list of undesirables.
But today's reception was enveloped in an ominous atmosphere, and almost no one of the guests who came to the banquet was loud and laughing, even if they were talking. It's more like talking to each other.
"Is there something going on today?
"Oh my God. My dear old John, it seems that you are now putting all your energies into that pearl business, and how come you don't even know about such a big thing?"
"What's going on lately? It can't be that the current demons are going to invade again, damn it, I have already lost thousands of gold coins of goods last time, and I have messed up several businesses that are about to be completed, these damn demons"
"No, no, no, it's not so strict" Hearing the word demon invasion, even Fang Cai, a businessman who knew some of the truth, shuddered. He quickly interrupted Old John's damn ramblings and said, "Don't mention those demons again. This time it's because someone finally couldn't help it and wanted to take action on the group of prostitutes/women in Lao Cai. ”
"Hehehe, I have already said that a group of women who make a living by selling their butts still want to come up with any tricks, and it is not always a matter of time before they are swallowed up, but now they are really born, but unfortunately I know too late and I don't have a chance to get involved. I've been coveting that woman Cassandra for a long time, and if she's sent to a slave auction this time, I'm going to buy her back for fun. ”
"You better dispel this idea as soon as possible, not to mention that this time it is the dangerous Piero of the Nobeli family who is going to deal with Lao Cai, and what big things will happen if you don't get it this time, I heard that not long ago, Bellamy, the little leader of the Nobeli family, was torn into pieces of meat by those crazy perverted women and sent back to the Nobeli family, and he also gave an extremely vicious curse, that Bellamy obviously only had one head left in a vase, and he was still alive"
Old John, infected by the gloomy tone of his old friend, was also a little chilled, and it happened that at this time, the large black carriage of the Nobeli family also appeared in the square, and Piero, who stepped down from the carriage, really looked unhappy, revealing a dangerous aura all over his body.
The gangs and merchants of Tideport have always had a very complex and interdependent relationship, and after seeing the youngest and most prominent patriarch of the famous Nobelley family, many people came forward to say hello, and of course there was also the idea of taking the opportunity to find out if the creepy rumor was true. The big boss had commissioned a gang of street scoundrels to send Bellamy back, and although Piero had ordered the news to be blocked, it was impossible to hide it. This made his originally good mood extremely bad, and he felt very unhappy about the unexpected actions of the women in the old street.
At this time, another carriage galloped into the square, although this carriage did not have much taste of luxury and luxury, but it was full of feminine elegance, obviously the kind of style designed for women. And today, this carriage and its owner will surely become the focus of the whole reception.
The carriage stopped directly in front of the gate of the main building, and after the waiter respectfully opened the door, dressed in a black gauze night dress, the whole person was full of radiance, like the queen of the night, Cassandra stepped out of the carriage. Behind her, there was also a delicate and lovely girl in blue.
With a bang, there was a lot of discussion around him
"Oh my God, it's really the big boss, she really dares to appear here?"
"Yes~~~!, doesn't she know that tonight's drinking party is held to discuss how to divide the interests of Lao Cai?"
"Look at Piero over there, I conclude from my forty years of experience that he must have wanted to kill someone. ”
"Hey~~~!, do you know who the girl is with the big boss? ”
"I haven't seen it, maybe it's the chick ** that Lao Cai has just trained, and I can't figure out if the big boss is planning to give her away, so as to reverse the current unfavorable situation. ”
"I think it's difficult, who doesn't know how tempting the interests of Lao Cai are now, I'm afraid that even if the big boss sends himself out, it's useless, have you heard of it, even Sir Bero has given up providing shelter for her, and Lord Sir's failure to appear at the reception venue tonight is the most direct proof"
The short and fat president of the Chamber of Commerce greeted him with a smile on his face, he trotted to Cassandra, stretched out his arms and hugged the big boss heavily, and said loudly: "My dear big boss is still so glamorous and charming, thank you for your support tonight, I hope you can have a good time tonight, but who is this little beauty behind you?"
Without the slightest displeasure or disgust on her face, Cassandra shook off the president's sweaty palms without a trace, and took a slight step back to keep her distance from this shameless bastard before saluting and replying: "Dear elder, I don't think my presence will be pleasant to everyone, but there are some things that no one can avoid, don't you say?"
Cassandra's gaze swept over Piero's face not far away, but she didn't stop in the slightest, and naturally she didn't care about the gloomy hostility and threat on the young godfather's face.
"As for the kid behind me, she's just here to get to know me for a long time, so don't worry too much. ”
******
This child, who followed the big boss to come here to "grow knowledge", naturally has just become the "king of the backstreets" The little ogre Gorlon, he is inconvenient to appear in this kind of public, if his close relationship with Lao Cai is exposed, and then spread to the fairy tale, Goron has built up a little hole card is very likely to be scrapped, after Goron proposed to disguise and accompany Cassandra to attend this drinking party, it was like turning on some strange switch, and a group of women suddenly studied with great interest how to make Goron a completely different person.
There is no doubt that these women are all top makeup experts, and with the abundance of materials in Tideport, almost any kind of cosmetics can be bought in the street market, even ordinary girls can be turned into glamorous hot girls under their hands, not to mention that Goron's appearance inherited from the troll Rafana is already outstanding.
On the grounds that if a man appeared in public in the "Old Street", it would be too conspicuous, and the women who were in high spirits could easily persuade Goron to disguise himself as a woman, and Golon, whose real identity was an ogre, had no objection to his women's clothing, anyway, his current appearance was originally false, and what difference could there be between men's and women's clothing.
After being tossed around by a group of women for an hour, Goron was completely unrecognizable at this time
The high heels with hidden heels subtly changed his height, the cruel corset comparable to the torture instrument made his current waist look almost unbearable, and further up, the delicate chest pads also allowed him to have a pair of cute breasts that were not too big or small, and Golon's facial features and eyebrows were magically changed by dozens of makeup tools to completely change into another look, plus a light blue fake, the current Golon, I'm afraid that even if he stands under the noses of all the fairy tale members, it is impossible to be recognized by the light.
And now Goron also has a temporary name, Golia.
******
The president of the Chamber of Commerce, who was very concerned, didn't pay much attention to Goron, he looked at the mayor of the town who was walking towards Netro, and said with a smile: "Since the big boss has arrived, then this dinner party can officially begin." ”
Goron followed Cassandra into the venue, then deliberately took two steps slower to distance himself from Cassandra, and the crowd was so crowded that Goron quickly disappeared from everyone's sight. (To be continued!)
