Facing the rising sun, the Artis Beauty slowly returned to port, and Noah, who had not slept all night, stood on the side of the ship with a sad face.

Lorraine walked over and stood beside her with his hands behind his back, and Noah leaned his head over and leaned on Lorraine's arm.

She is very petite, even her figure is not Roma, and her height of more than one meter and a half cannot even reach Lorraine's shoulders, so she can only lean on her arm.

Lorraine reached out and grabbed her, allowing her to lean more comfortably.

"Regret it?"

"They are my people, Uncle Sam secretly hid cheese for me when I was a child, and Grandma Pida always gave me shortbread. And little Allen, who always said he wanted to be my exclusive musician, but I didn't dare to dance in crowded places, so he hasn't played the guitar in the square until now......"

Noah whispered, trying to hide her head, and her voice became urn-like and audible, but there was no joy or anger.

"They're going to wander," she said......, "and the Roma love to wander and fear wandering, and when they come to a new place, they will always treat us like wizards, thieves, robbers, dead people......"

Lorraine was speechless, knowing that Noah didn't need him to speak.

Noah continued: "Captain, is it okay not to lie to Viscount Alfonso...... My cousins wanted to kill me, but Uncle Sam, Grandma Pida, and little Elron, they never wanted to hurt me...... I was able to escape because of the letter from Little Allen, and it was Uncle Sam who told him ......"

"We wouldn't have deceived the Viscount in the first place. Integrity is the foundation of business, once there is deception, business will not last long. ”

"Really?" Noah's eyes lit up.

Lorraine smiled and rubbed her head, and the white ears also got in playfully and asked Lorraine to rub her little head together.

Lorraine teased the round chin of the white ears and whispered, "Noya, you can't question your captain in the future." Honesty is the foundation of navigation, and once there is deception, the sea vessel will be turned away by Nuo Outong. ”

"What is Nuotong?"

"It is the grave of all seagoing ships, and it is the paradise of all sailors." Lorraine pointed to her heart, "But she's not in the sky, she's here, and everywhere pansies bloom." ”

……

The ship docked, and the grand plan for friendship with Viscount Alfonso began.

Noah returned to the Ministry of Romsala and waited as a witch for the Viscountess's summons.

This is only temporary.

After the divination is over, she will return to the boat, because she can't expel the three cousins, she can...... It's just herself.

Unable to put her crew in danger, Lorraine forced her three cousins to swear a poisonous oath to the Crystal Ball of Destiny, in addition to making Henna work hard to protect her.

Ridiculous and useful tricks.

The Roma can believe in all gods, but they are atheists at heart, and the only thing they believe in is fate, and they listen through crystal balls and tarot cards.

It's a lot like Lorraine.

He was also an atheist at heart, believing in Niold, one a habit given to him by Lorraine the Younger, and the other a remembrance of Helena.

Fortunately, the root of ancestral belief is basically remembrance, otherwise Lorraine doesn't even know if he is a whaler, let alone whether he can stimulate the power in his blood.

Everything went in order.

Three days later, news came from Noah that Viscount Alfonso had returned. They will meet the Viscount and Viscountess at ten o'clock tomorrow to agree on the final details for the divination the day after tomorrow.

Lorraine, who got the news, smiled slightly, asked Pierce to prepare the dress and invincible cloisonné, and finished the nautical diary early, turned off the lights, and slept peacefully.

At nine o'clock the next morning, Lorraine and Pierce, dressed in formal dresses, came to the door of Viscount Alfonso's house early, opened the way with cloisonné, and waited only half an hour to be received by the viscount.

The viscount sat under a parasol in the meadow, wearing only a waistcoat, a shirt, neither a tuxedo nor a wig.

When he saw Lorraine, the first thing he said was: "Fifteen minutes of fine Oriental porcelain have been exchanged for you, gentlemen, and you may speak freely until the time is over." ”

Lorraine did not hesitate to waste fifteen minutes in exchange for three hundred pounds.

He couldn't convince Viscount Alfonso in the first place.

A black merchant, a family outcast, and an Englishman, Lorraine perfectly meets all the conditions that a Spanish gentleman thinks can run errands and not be biased.

These conditions helped Lorraine incessantly, so much so that for fifteen minutes he spoke, Viscount Alfonso's eyes never took off the cloisonné teacup in his hand for even a second.

When Lorraine finished speaking, Viscount Alfonso put down the teacup and smiled slightly.

"Eloquent Mr. England, I confess, you almost convinced me." He closed the lid and absentmindedly played with the ring on his hand, "Thirty percent of the profits of Port Bermeo...... It's tempting. In the future, as you grow, you can upgrade to 30% of the profits of the Greater Basque Country, and even the future is considered. ”

"It's a pity......," he said, shaking his head regretfully, "I'm a nobleman." Before considering the interests of the family, the interests of the Duke of Victoria, the esteemed King of Madrid, need to be considered first. ”

"As you should see, Bermeo is an official port for black traders. We operate as a Black Harbor to create a comfortable environment for black merchants, but we are not a Black Harbor, and I am not a rich man who relies on illegal profits to make a decent living. So ......"

With that, the butler walked up and whispered to Viscount Alfonso.

The Basque dialect was obscure, but Lorraine could guess the contents, and it was none other than Noah coming.

Sure enough, after the butler had finished speaking, the viscount stood up with a smile and extended his hand to Lorraine.

"Fine oriental porcelain with a listening gentleman of England. You gave me a bright morning and afternoon, and I hope you can have a happy day. However, even the most pleasant meeting has an end...... Now it's it. ”

Lorraine also stood up, smiled and shook hands with Viscount Alfonso goodbye, and watched him walk towards the mansion, but had no intention of leaving.

The Viscount walked for a moment and looked back dissatisfiedly: "Mr. England, are you going to ruin this precious first sight?" ”

"No, sir." Lorraine stood under the umbrella and bowed slightly, "I still have a word of farewell, and after speaking, I will naturally leave." ”

"Oh?"

"Carmen. Xavier. ”

"What!"

"Carmen. Miss Xavier. Lorraine bowed to Viscount Alfonso, "I don't know if I mispronounced the name of that beautiful lady, you know, the Spanish pronunciation is a bit awkward for the English, and I apologize if I accidentally caused you trouble." ”

Viscount Alfonso narrowed his eyes: "Surprise Mr. England, it seems that you are well prepared." ”

"As a fledgling young businessman, only by being diligent can I make up for my shortcomings."

Both laughed at the same time.

The housekeeper on the side waited for a while, and found that Mr. Alfonso had another conversation, and leaned over in embarrassment: "Sir, Madame's guest ......"

Viscount Alfonso suddenly changed his face, his face was hideous, like a cannibal: "Let those lowly, filthy flamenco people wait!" Don't you see I'm entertaining guests? Get lost! ”
