The Hilton family's fragrance launch event lasted less than 20 minutes.

It's not that customers don't buy it, it's that it's so popular, and the expected 10 bottles of perfume are quickly taken by the first 10 customers.

The guests in the back queue couldn't help but make loud noises to express their dissatisfaction with the event arrangement. In order to calm the emotions of these card-playing customers, the Hilton family had to temporarily increase the supply of perfume by 10 bottles.

Although there are still many customers in the queue who can't buy the goods, they don't complain anymore. Hilton has already stated that the manufacture of perfumes is complicated and there is not much inventory. Today's increase of 10 bottles is an exception, and in the future, only 10 bottles will be sold per day, and there will be no more increases.

The launch party ended briefly and lively, but the people in the back did not disperse and still stood in the same place.

If you can't buy it today, won't you have 10 bottles tomorrow? If you count the heads in front of you, you will probably know when it will be your turn. At this time, I walked away, and when I came back, I was afraid that I would be discharged from the street? Let the owner know that he will not peel off his own skin.

The people just stood there basking in the sun, of course there was no need for the nobles, ladies and ladies to wait here, and they gradually dispersed in twos and threes.

There are young ladies and ladies who are young, mature, or too mature, shaking the old man's arm and not clinging. It is estimated that after the position in the queue is compared, it will take many days.

When buying goods, you have always bought more and less as the customer wants, as long as the silver ticket in your bag is enough to pay the bill. Therefore, the nobles and lords only sent one subordinate to line up. I didn't think that the Hilton family would actually limit purchases, and it was calculated according to the number of people.

Some of them have been very nimble, and they have secretly sent people back early, looking for more people to come and line up, and occupy more seats - at the end of the queue, of course. There are really few people who dare to do such a thing as cutting in line. Those who line up here, who knows which family's subordinates. It is not uncommon to see an earl, a marquis, or even a slave of the lord of the city. Are you eating the bear's heart and leopard's gall and dare to cut in line in front of them?

Others, who are more intelligent, have already thought of the trick of going through the back door.

And the back door of the Hilton family, Count Silvio has already opened it himself, and is waiting for the arrival of distinguished guests from all sides.

For a while, the Hilton family mansion was full of people, and the threshold of the gate was about to be stepped on by people from various families two inches shorter.

And after each family came to visit, they finally left satisfied. Only God knows if they will be happy if there is anything else to be gained besides the beautifully packaged and small perfume in their hands.

……

The Marquis of Socrates stood by the window, quietly looking out the window. Compared to a month earlier, the Marquis's face was haggard and his hair was gray, as if he had suddenly aged by more than ten years.

The sun is thin, and the remnant sun is like blood!

Just like the situation of the Fontaine family at this moment, and like the mood of the Marquis now.

"Third brother, how are you recovering from your arm injury?"

Lothar muffled, "The doctor has just checked it, and it's fine." It's just that recently, I can't do it with people for the time being, so my eldest brother can rest assured. But on the side of the Hilton family, I heard that there is another move? ”

"It is said that Anthony made a woman's pastime called perfume," said Justel, "which is deeply loved by the ladies and ladies of the nobility. Now the fame has spread beyond the province of Edinburgh. ”

To make matters worse, the nobles of the city took advantage of the opportunity to negotiate the purchase of perfumes, and all the nobles of the city went to visit Silvio's old fox. Even some people in our alliance used this excuse to bring their wives and daughters to the door. In this situation, they can guess what they are talking about with their toes. ”

"Originally, in this sensitive period, no matter how much those people wanted to hook up with Hilton, they still had to be afraid of other people's criticism. Well, now, Hilton not only provided a perfect excuse, but also gave the Alliance nobles a way down the stairs to take the initiative to approach, and they didn't hurry up and run away. That old fox is really calculating! ”

"Humph! It's that Anthony again! I said that I should have chopped him with an axe a long time ago, and there would not be so many things to follow. Lothar shouted indignantly.

"I miscalculated." Just also regretted it, "I knew that today, even if I tried to let the third brother stay in the cell of the City Lord's Mansion for a few days, I would have to eradicate this demon at any cost." ”

"Then I'll go find the kid now!" Lothar hated Anthony so much that he was about to get up.

Just hurriedly stopped: "Third brother, slow down." Now that the general trend has been achieved, even if Anthony is eliminated, it will not help. ”

"Forget it, whether it's right or wrong, there is no need to mention the past." The Marquis of Socrates turned around, "In the current situation, what countermeasures does the second brother have?" ”

Juszt's face sank, and he frowned and said, "Ever since Anthony opened up the trade route for the Hilton family, the form has changed radically. Since then, a series of countermeasures have failed for various reasons. By now, the outcome is almost a foregone conclusion. The move set last time, it's time to calculate the time. This is our last chance. If it succeeds, it can delay and suppress Hilton's momentum and wait to find opportunities; If not, if not......"

When the Marquis Socrates and the Lothar brothers heard this, their hearts sank.

"If it still doesn't work, there will be no power to return to the sky!"

……

There was a soft "snap", and the Grand Duke threw a case file on the table.

"What's wrong?" The old magician, who had no image and was reclining on a chair in a lazy manner, asked in a casual voice.

Grand Duke Mattesias slowly walked back to his seat behind the Long Shore and chuckled, "Nothing. The nobles did not give up, and jointly filed a complaint, accusing the Hilton family of colluding with bandits, monopolizing the trade routes, and obstructing the legitimate trading rights of other families. ”

"Cut~ What are they doing? You aristocrats, you have nothing to do all day long, and you are doing all this bullshit. The old magician scoffed.

The Grand Duke shook his head: "This is not a trivial matter, Hilton has opened this trade route, and the profits from it every year will be very amazing." The other nobles could only watch dryly, of course, unbalanced. ”

The old magician sat up and said in surprise, "Listen to your tone, do you really want to settle accounts with the Hilton family?" ”

"Of course!" Grand Duke Mattesias's face was solemn, "Since I am the lord of Edinburgh City, disputes between nobles in the city must of course be mediated in the middle. ”

……

The Hilton Mansion was full of jubilation and jubilation.

In the past month, the situation has reversed, and it has become more and more favorable for the Hilton family. And since Mr. Anthony's casual perfume became popular throughout the city of Edinburgh, the Hilton family has become the center of heated discussions.

The arrangement of the upper echelons of the family around the perfume is of course unknown to ordinary people. However, it can be seen from the humility and friendliness of the major families that the external environment of the family has been very good.

Even, among the visiting families, there are also those old nobles who were once on the opposing side.

It can be said that in this long-planned battle launched by the other party, the Hilton family, who responded in a hurry, was about to achieve the final victory.

Under such a favorable situation, what other means can the aristocratic alliance led by the Fontaine family reverse the situation?

Just when the patriarch, Count Silvio, was full of ambition and victory, an invitation letter from the city lord's mansion was quietly delivered to him.
