Leaving the naval base on Sanfarud, Fang Xing set foot on the purpose of the trip, San Bobla.

Known as the City of the Queen, the island is home to bustling streets, castle-like buildings, and hospitable residents.

Before Fang Xing stepped into the street, he felt the oncoming hustle and bustle, and in order to reduce trouble, he put on the simple hat he had worn to cover his face, and then stepped into the street.

It's not the first time he's been here, before going to the naval base, he went to San Pobla, Pukki, the water capital and finally to the naval base in Sanfarud, but today it seems to be much more lively than the last time.

The streets are full of enthusiasm, people are smiling and dancing, and the streets are filled with people wearing masks, as if they are celebrating some kind of holiday.

The owner of a mask stall next to him shouted to Fang Xing, who was about to walk in, "Little brother." ”

Calling a little brother to a child? Fang Xing, who was slightly interested in the man's name, turned around and walked over.

"Little brother, you're from out of town."

"How do you know?"

"Today is the masquerade carnival on the island, and people in the city don't wear hats even if they don't wear masks."

It turned out that this was the case, Fang Xing showed a sudden expression.

The boss suggested, "How about buying a mask to wear and let's join the event together." ”

Fang Xing thought for a moment, the information he got from the navy, many businessmen would gather here today, and it might be easier to move if he had a mask, so he didn't refuse.

From the stall full of masks, he chose a mask that resembled a tanuki and bought it, and then put it on his face, and threw the hat to the mask stall owner.

The mask stall owner caught the hat that was slowly falling from it with a blank expression.

……

This is the meeting room of the famous castle of San Pobla, which is located in the center of the castle and has a large hall that can accommodate thousands of people, and is richly and luxuriously decorated.

It was also a meeting place for merchants, and was used as a meeting room, with a stage planned under it, neatly arranged rectangular white tables, filled with fine food and wine, and served by waiters in front of each table. As the time for the meeting approached, the merchants entered the meeting hall one after another, and the wide meeting room was filled with the sound of exchanges.

At the same time, outside the door of the meeting, there is a special person who is responsible for identity verification.

This is an important business gathering, not an ordinary gathering, and it is natural to verify the identity of those who have some information that can only be circulated among businessmen and cannot be published.

Merchants are constantly showing invitations and waiting for confirmation before entering the gate.

At this time, a child, wearing a mask, walked in so generously. The janitor ignored it and watched as he walked in.

Naturally, Fang Xing walked in, and he used his ability to block the direction of light, so that the people around him could not see him. Walking into a remote corner of the living room, Fang Xing dissipated the refraction of light.

There was still some time before the party began, Fang Xing was not idle, the delicacies on the table were not decorations, he was already a person who loved food, it was rare to have the opportunity to come into contact with so many delicacies, and he had to eat them to a great extent.

The waiter saw a masked child dangling in front of the food, and instead of saying anything, he stepped forward to introduce the food. Those who can enter this venue are not ordinary businessmen, and they are not people they can afford to offend, even children. In their eyes, Fang Xing was just a greedy child wearing a festive mask.

The sudden arrival of Fang Xing, except for adding a person to the venue, did not affect the communication of others.

The businessmen still treat everyone around them with familiar smiles, and their consistent smiles make people not see any emotion.

At the beginning of the meeting, a fat man of large body walked out of the crowd, he was the protagonist of the meeting, and Franklin, the rich man of St. Bobla, who walked on the stage to meet him with warm applause from the audience.

"Welcome to this gathering, I am honored to be able to speak on the stage as a representative of all of you!"

The audience burst into applause again, but it was not only the palms that moved, but many people, including the heart, were also turning. Franklin was not the only one who represented the competition, and his eyes were full of envy and extreme when he looked at him, and his mind also turned.

Franklin enjoyed the gaze from below, and paused before continuing: "This gathering is to congratulate the previous cooperation on the smooth success, this cooperation has achieved a win-win situation by the efforts of the guys, in order to maintain this situation, and in order to further cooperation, it is necessary to carry out this party...."

Franklin spoke affectionately, and Fang Xing, who was located below, also listened with interest, but he didn't stop at hand, and continued to taste the exquisite food, although Franklin didn't say what that cooperation was, but he could hear that it was about the issue of raising the price of trade in the water capital, which was also a matter that troubled Fang Xing, but this matter would be resolved after today.

After a burst of speeches, "... The above is my conversation, and friends who are interested in participating in this cooperation can go over there to discuss it in detail. ”

"Later, if you are interested, you can go over there and talk about cooperation." Franklin pointed to the table next to it, which was no different from the others, except that it was empty without food and wine.

Franklin's speech ended with warm applause, and then the crowd walked in the direction that Franklin had just pointed, whether it was genuinely willing to cooperate or go with the flow, as the crowd deviated, the huge space was left with only Fang Xing standing alone, while selecting the food, and making a vigorous comment. "This tastes a little sweeter, this..."

Even if he was a child and half-masked, he was too conspicuous in such an environment, and soon someone asked questions.

"Whose child is this?"

The men looked at each other expectantly, but none of them came out to speak.

The vast majority of them were brilliant businessmen with unusual visions, and they soon discovered the clues. Judging from the fact that no one has come out on the left and right, this child is most likely not the heir of a colleague, so who is it?

Franklin, as one of the most outstanding among them, after observing Fang Xing's hair color and wooden knife, instantly thought of the recent topic and made a bold judgment.

"Colonel Kid" is the most common topic they talk about at the wine table lately, and it is natural to say two things about his characteristics. And the most common conversation between them is that a child about ten years old becomes a colonel by virtue of his ability? It can be seen from the newspaper that it is the grandson of the naval hero Vice Admiral Karp, so it must be the back door of the climbing.

They're the ones who are the best at it, and it's no surprise that they're in the navy.

But no matter what his strength is, when the colonel appears here, he should be "entertained", Franklin adjusted his breath and smiled, and then asked tentatively: "Fang Xing.." Captain? ”
