Colin is worthy of being the president of the Chamber of Commerce in the province of Valen, and he is indeed very trustworthy. After negotiating with Lin Xia, he quickly signed a contract and left Xilin Town. Three days later, the agency fee of 2,000 gold coins was delivered.

The contract includes exclusive rights to Linxia's high-end women's brand Chanel and civilian clothing brand Uniqlo in Valen. If there are merchants in the Valen province who want to sell Chanel and Uniqlo clothing, they can only pick up the goods from Colin.

At the same time, Lin Xia revealed to Colin that he was about to develop a high-end male brand - Armani, focusing on men's clothing for aristocrats and wealthy businessmen. Privately, Colin also reached an agreement with Lin Xia, and Colin has the right of first refusal to represent the Armani brand.

Lin Xia also left a hand in the contract, which only included clothing. Lin Xia is ready to continue to develop bags and shoes, but he knows that women are obsessed with bags and shoes, and it is not a joke to cure all diseases.

Birmingham has also been with Lin Xia for a while, and after Lin Xia told Birmingham about Armani's idea, he asked Birmingham to do it himself, and if he didn't understand or couldn't make a decision, he would come to Lin Xia. Lin Xia also intends to test Birmingham's ability.

With Colin's contract and the tax revenue of Xilin Town, although the construction of Xilin Town is still not to the extent of breaking even, it is not as tight as before. Lin Xia was also relieved. Over time, as long as the supply goes up, there will be no problem with the flow of money.

Moreover, Lin Xia believed that it would not be long before the clothes that Colin imported from Xilin Town would soon start on Charlemagne's continent, and merchants from other provinces would also come to Xilin Town one after another to ask for agency.

During this time, Lin Xia breathed a sigh of relief, and Xavier also wrote a lot of letters one after another, informing Lin Xia that Hongxing's development in the imperial capital was going well, and the number of Hongxing brothers had reached three hundred.

Troy also came to the secret letter, and he actually went to the city of Düssel to investigate, but because the time was too short, he had not obtained any useful information.

Carlos has already been in the city of Dussel, has opened a nightclub, and is very well mixed with the underground forces in the city of Dussel.

Everything went well, and Lin Xia was rarely relieved. Although the mayor of the city of Dussel thinks that there is a treasure in Xilin Town, Lin Xia knows that the treasure is just a joke.

At the end of May, the weather is already starting to get hot, but the night is cool and breezy and pleasant.

In the Xilin family's manor, Lin Xia set up a barbecue grill and made a barbecue. But when Lin Xia invited people to eat together, he found that everyone was very busy and no one had time to come, which made Lin Xia feel a little embarrassed.

But everything is ready, and it can't be wasted, so the only idler, our great magician Bacon, accompanies Lin Xia to eat this barbecue.

In front of the barbecue, Lin Xia was adding seasonings to the grill, and the bacon followed Lin Xia and flattered Lin Xia's craftsmanship. Cuihua stood aside and watched, but sometimes the night wind would blow the hem of the cheongsam, which made Lin Xia feel a little embarrassed.

"You kid like Don, you like to enjoy it. Cuihua suddenly burst out.

"I just don't know how Tang's craftsmanship is. Lin Xia replied casually.

Bacon immediately replied, "I don't know how the Lionheart King's craftsmanship is, but I can be sure that his craftsmanship is not as good as that of Young Master Lin Xia." ”

Lin Xia glanced at Bacon angrily, stopped talking, and only chatted with Cuihua in his heart.

"I've eaten Don's barbecue, and although I can't eat what you make, I'm sure that your craftsmanship is not as good as Tang's. Cuihua said the exact opposite of Bacon.

Lin Xia didn't bother to bother with this Tang diehard, so he picked up the barbecued meat that had been roasted and took a bite: "It's a pity that there is no cumin, and the taste is much worse." ”

"Don said the same thing as you. Cuihua stared at Lin Xia carefully and said, "You are very similar to Tang in many places. ”

"Don is not as handsome as me. Lin Xia replied to Cuihua angrily.

Cuihua made a gesture of contempt to Lin Xia, and Lin Xia knew without asking that it must have been taught to her by Tang. After Cuihua despised Lin Xia, she said, "You all often say some strange things. And you are all very kind to the people around you, whether you are nobles or commoners or servants. Tang said that everyone is equal, although you didn't say it, but I can see that you also have this idea. ”

Lin Xia didn't know how to answer Cuihua's words, and concentrated on eating his own barbecue. Bacon kept flattering Lin Xia's craftsmanship on the side.

"What a fragrant smell. Lin Xia suddenly heard a slightly old voice.

Lin Xia immediately became nervous, he had already reached the fifth level, the middle stage of Jindan, and he was very sensitive to the movements around him. The voice was obviously very close, but he didn't even notice anyone approaching.

"I wonder if you can treat me to a few pieces of barbecue?" the old voice sounded again.

This time the voice was closer, Lin Xia locked the direction, and saw an old man walking in the distance, this person looked very old, but his back was straight, not at all like an old man who was about to die.

Since Lin Xia established a private army, there are private troops patrolling outside the manor 24 hours a day, and this old man came here without anyone knowing, and his strength is probably far stronger than his own.

"Since I am here, I am my guest, old gentleman, please. Lin Xia made a gesture of please and invited the old man to eat barbecue together.

The old man was not polite, he walked to the barbecue grill, and picked up a piece of barbecue meat with his hand and put it in his mouth, not feeling hot at all.

After eating a piece of barbecue, the old man closed his eyes and tasted it carefully, and when a piece of barbecue meat entered his stomach, he opened his eyes and shook his head, put his hand into his arms, and took out a small cloth bag. The old man opened the small cloth bag, took out a few grains of rice from the cloth bag, and sprinkled it into the barbecue.

Strange to say, the old man took out the grains of rice, but the powder was indeed sprinkled. Lin Xia's pupils shrank, if he put the stone in his hand and crushed it, he could do it, but if he kneaded this soft particle into powder, Lin Xia thought that he would not be able to do it at all in the short term.

Lin Xia recognized it when the old man took out the granules, and now as the powder was sprinkled, Lin Xia smelled the smell, and confirmed it even more after confirming the thing, but Lin Xia felt very strange, Charlemagne Continent should not have this thing.

The old man picked up a piece of barbecue meat from the barbecue grill, put it in his mouth and chewed it slowly, and when the barbecue meat was in his stomach, he said to himself: "Barbecue meat really needs cumin to be delicious." ”

"If the old gentleman likes it, he will eat more. Lin Xia felt that the old man was strange everywhere, and while vaguely looking at the old man's dantian, he did not have a fighting spirit, and asked, "I don't know what the old man is called?"

"Elvis. The old man didn't intend to hide it, and just said his name.

"It's Elvis?" Bacon was suddenly surprised: "Aren't you already ......"

"Is it dead?" Elvis smiled, not angry at Bacon's impoliteness: "In the last hundred years, I have indeed rarely appeared on the mainland, and it is normal to be considered dead. ”

More than a hundred years? This is a bit big, but Lin Xia still asked, "I don't know the age of the old gentleman?"

"Age!" Elvis muttered, "It's been too long, I don't remember." ”

"Oh my God, you're really Elvis. Bacon's expression was so excited that he wanted to pounce on Elvis and hug his thigh.

Lin Xia found out about Bacon's actions and kicked Bacon all over again, so as not to embarrass himself.

Although Bacon was kicked away, he quickly got up, as if he didn't feel pain, and continued to rush towards Elvis, and said, "Lord Elvis, please take me as an apprentice." ”

"I haven't taken a magic apprenticeship in over a hundred years, and I don't plan to take another one in the future. Elvis gave Bacon a deep look: "In addition, I advise you, give up magic." ”
