Viscount Lippi, the Governor of Sunkinhe Harbor, made a seemingly modest but boastful remark, which was not immediately echoed by the others.

The Governor and his subordinates and butler quietly looked at Fritz, who had his usual smile and seemed to not pay attention to the conversation between him and the mage, focusing on the other side.

Viscount Lippi followed Fritz's gaze and saw Lin An standing between James and Salin. She was standing in the shade of a tree, completely obscured by James's back, so Viscount Lippi and the others, who were walking from the opposite side, had not seen her before.

Viscount Lippi took a breath and couldn't help but forget the previous embarrassment, but his old butler, who was over sixty years old, coughed heavily, and woke him up from his addiction to Lin An's beauty as quickly as possible.

Viscount Lippi glanced at Fritz and found that he hadn't noticed his gaffe, so he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief:

There are many beauties, even if Lin An's beauty is unique, it can't compare to the power and wealth in his hands, and now his most important task is to win over Baron Fritz, otherwise when the honored team returns to the imperial capital, what awaits him is His Majesty's thunderous wrath and removal and demotion or even a glass of poisoned wine.

Restraining all the ** and greed in his eyes, Viscount Lippi still looks a little aristocratic.

He politely saluted and introduced himself, and stretched out his hand to Lin An with a fat belly full of oil and water, and after stretching out his hand, he found that Lin An had no intention of kissing him for the first time, and he quickly turned his hand back, and his white fat fingers retracted a rounded arc in the air, and relatively naturally turned the wrong action into a slightly exaggerated bowing salute, and the drooping bloated eyelids covered up the shame.

Everyone present saw his embarrassment, but James and the others were disdainful and indifferent, and Viscount Lippi's subordinates and butlers were afraid that Viscount Lippi would turn a blind eye in shame.

Fritz knew Viscount Lippi's intentions, and he didn't pay any attention to this businessman who made a fortune and his ancestors had made a fortune by raising private soldiers with great wealth in exchange for military merit and entered the ranks of the nobility, in the eyes of a great nobleman like him. A small nobleman who has not lasted for more than three generations and has not even had a history of a hundred years is not much different from a commoner.

What's more, His Excellency this viscount is already meat on the board, not to mention that he is almost having problems with the route of military capital operation because of his dereliction of duty, even if he is not, His Majesty, who is worried about military fundraising, should also be tempted when he thinks of the fat family assets accumulated by the Lippi family with the business house!

Although there is a law of "the nobility cannot be punished", but with the centralization of power, there are nobles who have gone to the guillotine under the iron fist of the emperors of all dynasties, not to mention the heavy dereliction of duty such as delaying the operation of military funds, and not waiting for the old fox of the ruling faction to say. The bigwigs in the military will want to pounce on him and gnaw him to death!

Therefore, the most merciful thing that awaits this Viscount Lippi is to pay a fine to the nobles and punish the confiscation of all family property, so as to balance the political and military factions with His Majesty. Maybe he may raise his noble hand and allow Lippi to retain his title, and as for the small life of this fat ball viscount, the military behind blocking his family property must not care about this.

"What are you talking about?" Fritz asked James.

He was impatient to deal with Lippi, but his aristocratic upbringing did not allow him to put his disdain and indifference on the outside—even in the face of a beggar, a true nobleman should be able to do it without losing his grace—so he had to change the subject. to reduce the amount of time spent talking to the viscount.

James, who has a real family history, didn't even glance at the smiling Lippi and replied:

"We discuss the question of origin."

Of course, he wouldn't put Saleen on the matter, and he didn't bother to lie about a pig, so he used a very misleading statement.

"Oh, is it about this big guy?" Fritz also misunderstood.

But there are people who don't know each other.

"Speaking of this, I don't have a talent in the next place. Because of the family origins, there are some small insights and experiences. ”

Viscount Lippi was not unfazed by James and others, but it was more urgent than keeping his title and property. What's a little embarrassment about this?

So in order to be able to join the conversation, he took the initiative to speak up.

As soon as Lin An came over from Viscount Lippi and the others, she shut up, except for the necessary polite words, she generally did not talk much in the presence of outsiders. And Fritz and James got used to her. As for Salin, he was completely distracted. His eyes wandered to Lin An from time to time, not knowing what he was thinking.

James had been watching the play for a long time, but someone disturbed him, and the person who disturbed him did not know his ostracized situation, so he wanted to stay here and make some unbelievable remarks.

- James now only wanted the Viscount, who was roughly the same in diameter in width and length in diameter, to get out of his sight as quickly as his size:

The eyes of the blue lion are used to appreciate beauty, and the Viscount's anti-human appearance, which is more like an alienated person than the big guy in the pool, makes him feel like his vision is defiled!

Annoyed in his heart, but as disdainful as Fritz was to show it in front of such a lowly creature, the more irritated James became, the more peaceful his expression became, even with a smile.

But Fritz and his old friend for many years could not see the true love in James's eyes, and he knew that James was about to embarrass people again, and he was interested in hugging his chest and watching.

Viscount Lippi played a lot of tricks, but Fritz and the others did not respond, but fortunately, the subordinates and butlers brought to the scene were not embarrassed for a while.

When he had come to an end with all the remarks he had come up with in an attempt to arouse the interest of the others, James finally condescended to ask:

"His Excellency the Viscount is indeed knowledgeable in terms of aquatic creatures, and it seems that he is indeed a family scholar."

Everyone knows that Lippi's ancestors made their fortune from aquatic products, and still maintain several commercial routes, and this is obviously the greatest evidence of the nouveau riche - it is a pity that Lippi did not understand, or he did not understand.

Slightly disappointed by Lippi's reaction, James continued: "I have some questions that I would like to ask Your Excellency. ”

Lippi had some bad premonitions, he knew that James was born from the blue lion, and with his previous appearance, it seemed that it was not easy to please. But he still said kindly:

"Don't dare to ask for advice, let's discuss with each other, discuss!"

James noticed Fritz smiling at the corner of his mouth, and a smile flashed in Lin An's dark eyes. Both seemed to find the conversation between James and Lippi quite interesting, and Saleen was distracted by this.

James rolled his eyes inwardly.

He ignored the three spectators next to him, raised his chin to Lippi, smiled and asked:

"What does Your Excellency Viscount think of this big guy?"

Lippi didn't understand why James was asking, and he looked at the big octopus that had brought him bad luck, it had enough tentacles to surpass the tallest building in the harbor, but now it was wilting to the bottom of the pool, and it looked like a big rag.

"Well, it's powerful, it can take it down...... All the honorees deserve the first credit! "Lippi is clearly impressed by the destructive power of the big guys. After finishing speaking, don't forget to add a word of flattery.

"I mean, what do you think of its size?"

"Of course, even if my ancestors see and hear it all together. The size of this big creature is also the only one I've ever seen in my life, and if it weren't for that, it wouldn't have caused great damage to the shipping in the port—"

Viscount Lippi complained with a sullen expression, and without waiting for the usual flattery, James looked at the spherical Viscount's belly, which seemed to be quite elastic to the touch, with a very unobtrusive gaze. Nodding cautiously, he said:

"Hmm...... I think so too. ”

Fritz, Salin, and Lin An twitched their faces at the same time, as if they were suddenly suffering from a facial muscle disorder.

James glared at them sternly, and asked again before the viscount realized something was wrong, drawing the attention of Lippi and his subordinate butlers, "For this big guy, we've actually been deliberating on how to deal with it-"

He paused. Glancing at Lippi, the other party was holding his big belly, waiting for him to continue with a concerned expression - he couldn't help but be concerned. The fate of this big guy is already tied to him.

James continued.

"Of course, it is impossible to release it, and we cannot allow it to continue to plague the port and cause damage."

James paused again, glanced at Lippi again, and Lippi nodded vigorously unconsciously. He said in a continuous voice: "What His Excellency James said is right, we must cut down the grass and eradicate the roots!" ”

Fritz held his chin with one hand thoughtfully. Fingers pressed against the corners of the disobedient mouth, and James couldn't help choking.

“…… So now we have two plans, one is to take it on the road, as a big guy with such a rare size, it is qualified to be a proof of our achievements and bring it back to the imperial capital;

However, this method seems to be too labor-intensive, so there is another way to dismember it and slaughter it and distribute it to the people of the port to appease the people's grievances and calm the restlessness......"

"Thank you, Your Excellency, for your understanding of the current situation of the people, and if you can choose the latter, you will fully cooperate," said Viscount Lippi with admiration, "After today's attack on the port, the people of the port are in a state of panic, and if the news of your Excellency's heroic arrival spreads, it will surely be able to quickly appease the people!" ”

-- I've seen someone looking for death, but I've never seen someone so eager to arrange their own death.

The affection in the hearts of Lin An and the three of them has turned into pity.

"Since you say so, you can also discuss it, and I'll discuss it with my companions later,"

James was dead to Lippi's ability to understand his taunts, and that he had overestimated the other party's IQ, but the jokes that Fritz Linan couldn't make by the three onlookers make him feel very unhappy, and maliciously continue to embarrass Lippi:

"But do you think it's enough for a big guy to be distributed to everyone in Hong Kong?"

"To, to give it to everyone?" Lippi was stunned for a moment, then nodded, "Of course you can, no problem!" ”

"Then what are you waiting for, as one of the people who captured it, I should also be qualified to taste the loot!" James Peel smiled, "I can't wait!" ”

Lippi was stunned, "Okay, of course!" He commanded his stewards and servants, "Didn't you hear what Master James was saying?" Don't hurry up and get the ingredients for our dinner. ”

The butler and a few manservants, with the help of a few mages, trembled and took down the "ingredients" for the day's dinner, and the sleeping big guy did not wake up, and the four of them left with a large tentacle.

During this period, the commander jumped up and down, and in the end, in order to show his courtesy, he even left with his housekeeper to urge the chef of the house to make dishes that satisfied the guests.

Lin An and the others looked at the fat back of him leaving.

Salin sighed, "I suddenly felt a little pitiful for him. ”

"Poor people often have something to hate." James replied nonchalantly, depressed, "I am wrong to think that humans can have a common language with pigs." ”

Fritz and Salin both chuckled, and Lin An curled the corners of his lips.

But what they didn't know was that as soon as the Viscount Lippi, who was the same as a pig, left their sight, his fat face immediately became gloomy, and a gloomy color flashed in his eyes.

(To be continued)

ps：

Thank you, Mo, for the big pink ticket! o(n_n)o~

I said I don't write about pure cannon fodder...... Hehe.

ps: Regarding the surname "George" given by the teacher that Saleen was given by the teacher yesterday, Ah Dang said that some of the tubes may have forgotten jì - I don't know if you still remember the genius Lucius who was killed by Saleen during the trial of the city in the sky. George, Master George is this guy's grandfather, and Salin is just a pawn of the old guy (later became an outcast because of Salin's concealment), and he was actually cut off and hunted down before entering the Tower of Babel, but according to the public intersection of Lin An and Salin, Lin An, who has been in the ice field, should not know that Salin and Shimen were broken, so he introduces the background of Salin - about this aspect of the plot, it should be mentioned around chapter 91 and chapter 168.
