Chapter 107 Trading
The Frederick family's mansion was built about fifty years ago, when the castle architecture was no longer popular, in order to get rid of the decay of the past and adapt to the trend of the new era, the Frederick family led the family out of the castle, and the family members scattered and lived in various places, and some even moved to other urban areas of the Long Kingdom, extending the family's tentacles.
This family is basically a mixture of the remnants of the Frederick Kingdom, and Harry's family is a member of the Frederick family.
The Frederick family, who inherited the royal legacy, has been in control of this big family as the main family.
Although it is not obvious from the outside, the essence of this big family is still the continuation of the feudal royal autocracy, that is, the so-called royal order cannot be violated!
……
Frederick's family does not easily invite people to the main house, and Su Xian remembers coming here for the first time.
He got out of the car and underwent a routine inspection with the old butler before he was able to let go.
Frederick's house appeared to be under martial law, with people standing guard every other stretch of road, both inside and out.
The two walked along the avenue, but finally came to a small three-story building in the mansion.
This is not a formal interview, or rather an interview that is not suitable for public appearance.
There are guards standing guard under the small building, and their expressions are quite serious.
The old butler Serges clearly had some status in the family, and the guards looked very respectful when they saw him.
Su Xian followed, climbed the stairs, and soon came to a reception room on the second floor.
There were already three people waiting in the room.
Braun Frederick, the old earl, was a muscular old man in his early sixties.
Broly Frederick, the current head of the family, is under forty years old.
It seems that their family has a clear custom of early marriage and childbearing.
And the last person, of course, is Lily Frederick, who seems to be having an awkward relationship?
No coffee, no black tea, and the atmosphere was somewhat serious.
When Su Xian entered the door, the old housekeeper closed the door from the outside and guarded the door.
"Mark Gannon?"
"Yes. Hello, Viscount Broly Frederick. ”
Broly looked at Su Xian slightly, then stretched out his hand and pointed to the sofa against the wall.
"Don't be too inhibited, just sit down."
Su Xian sat down obediently.
There are two positions on this set of sofas, with Lily sitting on the other side.
Braun and Braly, on the other hand, sit on opposite sides of their desks, as if they were facing each other.
"Lily has told me everything about you. And she also showed me the power of those screaming red shoes. ”
"You know, this person is old, and it's always hard to accept the emergence of new things. If it weren't for the red shoes, some people wouldn't believe in the fact that they were reproduced in the extraordinary. ”
"Humph!"
The old Earl Braun snorted coldly inexplicably.
Broly didn't look at him and continued, "You're an antiquarian...... Although you haven't obtained the qualification yet, you will definitely have no problems with the technical aspects of studying under Professor Christopher Barker. I want to hire you, how? ”
It's really straight to the point and straight to the point.
But do you really think it's possible?
Su Xian was a little surprised: "If this is the purpose of inviting me here today, then it seems that there is no need to talk about it anymore." ”
Broly was visibly regretful: "No, I'm just trying. I really don't want to let go of a talent like you. ”
You're in too much of a hurry, aren't you?
Su Xian said speechlessly: "Viscount Frederick, can you get to the point?" We should not have a good time on both sides. ”
Broly's face softened: "In that case, let's get down to business." I hope you don't openly befriend masquerade again, at least not now. ”
Su Xian frowned slightly: "What do you say?" ”
"Time is an important asset, but we don't have enough of it right now," Broly explains. ”
This means that they are new to supernatural power and need time to develop, and they do not want to provoke an organization that may have a mature supernatural system at the beginning.
Lily will certainly be emotional because of Abel's death, but Broly, as the head of the family, must first consider the collective interests of the family.
Endure the calm for a while, take a step back and open the sky.
When the turrets of the giant ships roar in unison, it is not too late to fight the sea.
……
Su Xian thought about it and understood what he meant.
Broly continued: "But this is only the big strategy, and in the small strategy, we will continue to investigate the masquerade and find a way to infiltrate it, learn from their transcendent system, and develop ourselves. ”
Oh, just eat his flesh, drink his blood, and hack him to death with the last sword.
But what does this have to do with me?
After listening for a while, Su Xian patiently continued to listen for a while, and simply asked, "Then what is the purpose of inviting me here today?" ”
Broly smiled slightly: "Of course, identification. I have an artifact from that era here, and I need your help to identify it. ”
Su Xian straightened up his waist and said, "Of course it's no problem, appraisal is my job." ”
Seeing that he should respond, Broly turned to look at Braun: "Father, bring the things." ”
Braun snorted, picked up a small box beside him, and then opened the lid to reveal the relics inside.
It was a magnificent crown made entirely of pearls, and in terms of style, it belonged to the queen who wore it. ♕
This crown is extremely well preserved, and it is still clean after a hundred years.
Braun spread a layer of flannel on the table, and then carefully removed the crown from the box and placed it on top of the flannel.
Su Xian walked over, observed slightly, and said, "What do you want to know?" ”
This crown is supposed to be a relic of Frederick's kingdom, and its historical value does not need to be identified at all.
Broly also walked over: "Of course, it's its extraordinary power. ”
Su Xian said: "Are you sure it's an extraordinary item?" ”
Broly: "This is Margaret's crown, Margaret was a famous witch of her time, and among the items she left behind are Lily's red shoes, and the Muppet she gave you, and this crown. ”
Even if he didn't show it, Su Xian could still feel that he was quite dissatisfied with Lily's behavior of giving away the puppet.
But everyone would be dissatisfied, right?
Su Xian smiled and said, "Why don't we talk about the remuneration first?" ”
Broly's expression was slightly paused, but he was obviously prepared, and quickly said: "I don't know if the time and address of the next masquerade will be held?" ”
Su Xian: "Okay, for Lily's sake, I'll give you a discount this time." ”
One fold?
Broly's face stiffened, and Braun's face collapsed directly.
But Lily was suddenly happy.
Su Xian didn't care, and asked directly, "Can you touch it?" I need to feel the extraordinary power contained in this crown. ”
"Absolutely."
