Chapter 13 No one in sight
"General Eugen, this is Viscount Harris, who has just arrived from Stuttgart." Beside Viscount Dhamtast stood a tall, lanky man, with two mustaches above his lips, and his eyes flickering in his sunken sockets, and he seemed to be very shrewd.
"Hello, General Eugen." After Viscount Damtast's introduction, Viscount Harris stretched out his hand, wanting to shake Eugen's hand with an eager expression on his face.
"Hmm, hmm, hello, Viscount Harris." Eugen sat in his seat, holding a glass of cold beer in his right hand, half a lobster leg in his left hand, and chewing two small sausages in his mouth, and vaguely agreed. At the moment, his attention was all on the food on the table, and he was completely oblivious to the situation around him.
Viscount Harris's outstretched hand froze, and Viscount Dhamtast's expression was also a little ugly, but he had already appreciated Eugen's rudeness, and he was not surprised at the moment.
Viscount Dhamtast smiled helplessly at Viscount Harris, and Viscount Harris had to withdraw his hand stupidly. He originally wanted to talk to Eugen, but when he saw this, he didn't have the heart to talk, so he turned around and left.
Damtast was also extremely reluctant to talk to Eugen, but there were always people who came to ask him for help in introducing him, and he couldn't be as rude as Eugen, so he could only reluctantly agree.
"General Eugen, this is a gentleman of Owen Rose, he has a close relationship with the East, and has properties in Vienna, Milan, Berlin and other places."
"Hello, General Eugen." The tone of this sentence is strange, revealing the characteristic tactfulness of a businessman, and there is a hint of flattery when the words Eugen are pronounced.
"Hmm, hmm, hello." This time, Eugen simply didn't bother to pronounce the other party's name. After going down with the small sausage of the cold beer bar, his mouth was filled with soft bread stained with golden honey, and it was really inconvenient to speak.
Owen Rose was good-natured, and although Eugen ignored him, he tried to introduce himself and emphasized his business success. Unfortunately, Eugen didn't mean anything about it, and after half a day, he stopped being bored and turned around to get out of the way.
"General Eugen, Baron Jacobs Calvin, from the Jacobs family." Damtast's tone became impatient, rather perfunctory.
Baron Jacobs Calvin looked sixteen or seventeen years old, a little younger than Eugen, but his face was haughty.
He leaned back, his eyes sinking and looking down at Eugen, a pimple on his forehead glowing red in the light of the candlelight.
"You are General Eugen, can you be a general at such a young age?" Baron Calvin Jr. seemed to have a sense of competing with Eugen, and as soon as this sentence came out, there was an inexplicable smell of gunpowder.
Eugen, however, was still the same, and said hesitantly, "Well, well, hello, Baron Calvin. ”
Eugen's attitude directly angered Baron Calvin, he had never been so despised, he immediately glared at Eugen fiercely, and then turned and left.
Not far away stood a few companions who had come with Baron Calvin, and when he returned to his companions, he began to talk with oil, and as he spoke, he looked in the direction of Eugen from time to time, apparently speaking ill of Eugen.
The people around also noticed Eugen's uniqueness, and his rudeness left a deep impression on everyone, and many people found it boring and walked away from Eugen. When the ladies heard that the so-called General Eugen was such an impolite and rude man, they immediately lost interest in him. When talking about Eugen in the conversation, there was also a hint of contempt in his tone.
Damtast looked at Eugen who was unconscious, and smiled helplessly, how could the Habsburg family have such a strange thing, and no one really gave face.
At this time, someone came to ask the viscount to help introduce him, and although the viscount was reluctant, he finally agreed. He had already decided that after this introduction, he would leave here under the pretext of being unwell and hide inside. For the past half a day, he has been standing here and watching Eugen eat a lot, and he is a little hungry when he sees it.
"General Eugen, this is Father Martin Luther, from the Holy See." After saying this, Darmtast was about to turn around and leave, anyway, he could guess Eugen's reaction, it was nothing more than a casual promise and hello.
Father Martin Luther looked kind, and said with a timidly smile: "Hello, General Eugen, I am Martin Luther. ”
He had also seen Eugen's way of treating people before, so after asking good, he didn't expect much from it, and only planned to wait for Eugen to reply, and then turn around and leave.
Unexpectedly, Eugen, who had not raised his head since the beginning of the banquet, suddenly raised his head from the food he had buried himself in after hearing Father Luther's introduction, and looked at Martin Luther with wide eyes.
He still has an oyster shell in his mouth, a lobster leg turned into a fork in his left hand, and a veal steak he just got in his right hand.
"Phew, Bah." Organx spit out the oyster shell in his mouth, put down his fork and stood up suddenly, took the priest's hand and asked with a look of surprise: "Hello, what did you just say, what is your name?" ”
Eugen's sudden attention made the young priest a little overwhelmed, his hand was still in his sleeve robe just now, and he didn't mean to stretch out and shake Eugen's hand at all. Eugen simply pulled his hand out, and the priest could still feel the grease on Eugen's hand at the moment.
But the good-natured priest did not mind, but felt a little honored, and said again: "Hello, General Eugen, my name is Martin Luther, and it is a pleasure to meet you. ”
"Oh, yes, hello, Father Martin Luther, I'm honored to know you." Eugen stared at Martin Luther in front of him, his eyes shining with excitement, as if he had suddenly seen an angel Christian.
But behind that excitement, there is a hint of inexplicable, similar to cunning.
Darmtast was also a little surprised by Eugen's change, so he returned to the two of them, looked at Eugen and asked, "Hey, what. General Eugen had heard of Father Martin Luther before? ”
Eugen nodded repeatedly, his eyes glued to the priest and he didn't move: "I've heard of it, of course I've heard of it, Father Martin Luther's famous name is simply like thunder." In this sentence, Eugen is really not a sycophant, but his own true feelings.
