Chapter 121 Chancellor of the Exchequer

At tonight's exchange meeting, Chen Luo had a lot of unexpected gains, he originally planned to stay and see if he could find any more treasures, but Isabella's appearance made him cancel this plan.

In this world, no one is more familiar with Chen Luo than Isabella and Britney, even if Isabella doesn't recognize it for a short time, after a long period of contact, she will definitely doubt it again.

There was a lot of delay with Angus upstairs just now, and when Chen Luo went downstairs, the number of people in the hall was more than double that just now.

In this kind of magic exchange meeting, there are very few junior magicians, and those who participate in the meeting are at least intermediate or above in strength.

Chen Luo asked casually, "Are there so many magicians above the intermediate level in Apo City?"

Jasmine walked beside him and explained, "They are not all magicians, in order to meet more powerful magicians, some nobles and businessmen also often participate in this kind of exchange......"

Chen Luo participated in an academic salon once, which was far less lively than the exchange meeting of the Magic Association.

It seems that although scholars and magicians have a high status, the communication of the former is often limited to a small circle of scholars, while the latter is the object that everyone wants to befriend.

When Chen Luo and Jasmine walked towards the door, at a certain moment, Jasmine subconsciously hid behind Chen Luo.

Chen Luo looked at her in surprise and asked, "What's wrong?"

Jasmine looked ahead and whispered: "It's the Chancellor of Finance who just walked in, every time he comes to the association, he will make some unpleasant things, and we still avoid him a little ......"

Chen Luo looked along Jasmine's gaze and saw a fat man who was shorter than Toby, but fatter than him.

The fat man was dressed in rich clothes, and wore a necklace of gold around his neck, and on all five fingers, he had rings, and each ring was inlaid with jewels, and when he came by, his whole body shone in many places.

It was the first time Chen Luo had seen such an exaggerated finance minister, just looking at these things on his body, saying that he was not corrupt, I am afraid that no one would believe it.

However, there is one thing that still makes Chen Luo wonder, what kind of place is the Magic Association, in the Luolan Kingdom, even the royal family has to give them three points of face, let alone a small finance minister, there is no reason why he can leave unharmed every time he finishes trouble in the Magic Association, and he has been arrogant until now.

Jasmine explained, "This finance minister, the queen's own brother, is said to have come to the city of Apo because he couldn't stay in the king's capital anymore, because because of his status, even the lord of the city can't offend him......"

No wonder this fat man is so arrogant, His Majesty the King has only one queen, and the Magic Association does not look at the face of the Chancellor of Finance, but also cares about the face of the queen and the face of the king.

This also explains why the tax mess in Arpo City was a mess, and Isabella's father didn't do anything to him.

Jasmine sent Chen Luo to the door, Chen Luo stopped and said, "Okay, just send it here, you can go back." ”

Jasmine smiled, "Goodbye, sir." ”

"Jasmine goodbye. Chen Luo took two steps, looked back at him again, and said, "We are friends, and when there is no one in the future, you don't need to call me an adult......

Jasmine nodded with a smile, and as she walked back to the hall, a voice suddenly came from behind her.

"Is this the new deacon of the Magic Society, how come I've never seen it before?"

Jasmine turned her head and immediately said, "Jasmine has seen the Chancellor of the Exchequer, and I have just become a deacon......"

The fat man with a bloated body stretched out his hand to her, the fat on his face trembled a few times, and said with a smile: "Deacon Jasmine, it's nice to meet you." ”

Jasmine's face was a little pale, she was not a very familiar and close person, she would not use a handshake at all, but the consequences of rejecting the Chancellor of the Exchequer, she had seen it before, even if it was a magical association, she would not offend the Chancellor of the Exchequer because of a deacon.

Just as she was standing in place, a little overwhelmed, a figure suddenly came from behind and took her hand.

Isabella glanced at the Chancellor of the Exchequer and asked, "Uncle Walter, do you know my friend?"

"It's Isabella's niece......" Walter looked at her and asked, "Is your father here today?"

"Father is there, and Uncle Walter can go to him himself. Isabella pointed in one direction, then took Jasmine's hand and said, "Let's go over there......

Watching the two girls leave, Walter showed dissatisfaction on his face and said: "Auston is looking for trouble for me every day, and even his daughter is against me, my sister should have made me the lord of the city directly......"

An entourage behind him showed an embarrassed look on his face and said, "Lord Marquis, the city lord of Yapo City, since the establishment of the Luolan Kingdom, it has been hereditary by the Clavith family, unless Auston commits a big crime, even His Majesty the King can't directly make you the city lord......"

The dissatisfaction on Walter's face became even stronger, and he shook his head and said: "I don't care, you have to help me find a way, otherwise I will deduct all your salary for the next month!"

The attendant scolded angrily in his heart, but he didn't dare to show it on his face, and after scratching his head, he said, "Actually, it's not like there's no way to ......."

While he was whispering to the Chancellor of the Exchequer, on the other side, Isabella let go of Jasmine's hand and asked, "Miss Jasmine, are you alright?"

Jasmine gratefully, "Thank you, Miss Isabella, I'm fine." ”

Isabella was surprised, "Well, you know my name." ”

Jasmine nodded and said, "Mr. Blair told me your name, thank you really this time......"

"Blair's friend, that's my friend, just call me Isabella......" Isabella waved her hand and said, "By the way, are you familiar with Blair?"

Jasmine looked at her and whispered, "It's not very familiar with ...... either"

With a curious look on her face, Isabella asked, "How did you and Blair meet, and did he often mention me when he was with you......"

......

After Chen Luo left the Magic Association, he found an opportunity to change into his clothes.

Wearing that black robe back to school, most likely considered a gangster with bad intentions, he returned home and saw Teacher Britney sitting on the couch, seemingly reading a book.

However, when Chen Luo walked towards her, the pages of the paper that Britney was holding suddenly burst into flames, and then a breeze rose in the room, rolling the ashes out of the window.

Chen Luo stood in place in a daze, "Teacher Britney, are you okay?"

"It's fine. Britney smiled at him, but this smile was a little reluctant in Chen Luo's eyes.

However, Teacher Britney is different from Isabella, even if there is really something, if she says it's okay, then Chen Luo can't ask anything.

Including Chen Luo, everyone has secrets, Chen Luo didn't ask to the end, was silent for a moment, and asked, "Then Teacher Britney is hungry, do you want me to cook a bowl of noodles for you to eat?"

Britney, who never eats much at night, nodded this time for the first time.

Isabella is still growing and often wants to eat before going to bed at night, so Chen Luo often has side dishes in the refrigerator.

Soon after, a bowl of somen noodles with poached eggs was ready.

Britney finished eating the noodles silently, looked at Chen Luo, who was sitting opposite her, and said, "Thank you, Blair." ”

Chen Luo smiled and changed the subject: "I just met Senior Sister Isabella in the Magic Association. ”

Britney looked at him and asked, "Didn't she recognize you?"

"Nope. Chen Luo shook his head and said, "In this kind of thing, Senior Sister Isabella is not so smart......

Isabella opened the door, walked in from the outside, looked at Chen Luo suspiciously, and asked, "Blair, what bad things did you say about me in front of Teacher Britney while I was away?"

Chen Luo shook his head: "No, ......"

"No!" Isabella glared at him and said, "I've heard you say my name outside......

Britney smiled and said, "No, Blair is saying you're smart." ”

Isabella didn't care about it anymore and handed him a small cardboard box in her hand.

Chen Luo was puzzled: "What is this?"

Isabella gave him a blank look and said, "Didn't you like Alice's cake the most, I brought it to you from the Magic Association, it tasted very good......"

Isabella could think of herself when she encountered a delicious cake at the Magic Association, which made Chen Luo feel very relieved, and it was in vain that he got up in the middle of the night when she was hungry to cook noodles for her.

Chen Luo took the cake, Isabella seemed to smell something, suddenly took two steps forward, approached Chen Luo, and wondered: "Blair, why do you have a jasmine perfume smell on you......"
