Chapter 70: Earl Dave
It has been more than half a month since he crossed into this world, and Su Xiao felt that the word "brave" was not good for the first time, thinking that even the stinky city lord had to pretend to be a gesture of mutual respect to the brave, and you two security guards could still turn the sky upside down?
Thinking of this, Su Xiao's heart inexplicably swelled with a dark fire, you don't respect me, can I still give you a good face? Immediately sneered: "However, let's talk about it in the front, I came this time to have a major matter related to the currency and economy of the Snow Country, because of your obstruction, I failed to report to the Earl in time, and when something really happened, I will definitely come to visit Earl Dave again, and tell the truth about everything that happened today!" And you, be prepared to take full responsibility for this. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info Rest assured, I've never forgotten you, even if you two turn to ashes, I can pick you both out of the urn! ā
Doing things beside the officials, not seeking merit but seeking no fault, Su Xiao said that the matter was bigger than the sky, so frightened that the two knights trembled, how dare they let him go, one stepped forward to stop, and the other said in a panic: "The brave man stays, I will go and inform the earl!" ā
This kind of snob is really more and more annoying, Su Xiao couldn't help but add: "I'm very busy, I can't wait long, in order to save my head, I think you should run away!" ā
Seeing that Su Xiao packed up the knight guarding the door in two sentences, Su Geman was really impressed, and he was full of praise in Su Xiao's ears. No one doesn't like to listen to good words, but Su Geman's vocabulary is not good, eight out of ten sentences are the same, Su laughed for a while, and coolly left a sentence: "Brother is also a good player, and he can't clean up two NPCs?" ā
After a while, the knight who reported the news ran back and said nervously: "The Earl asked the brave man and his party to come into the house and wait for a while, saying that as long as the matter at hand is dealt with, he will meet him in person immediately." ā
Wait in the house? How long do you have to wait? Is the other party sincere? This statement can be pondered. The purpose of Su Xiao's trip is very clear, that is, to exchange the information of Tongsha for white iron, although he believes in the value of this information, but the premise is that Earl Dave knows this information, if he can't even see each other, wouldn't it be a waste of time?
Seeing that Su Xiao was silent, the knight guarding the door was so uneasy that he almost knelt down! "Did the brave men sit in the first room?"
Noticing the knight's expression, Su Xiao had the bottom of his heart. His previous remarks about the world economy must be alarmist, and the copper sand deposit is not a gold sand deposit, even Su Xiao himself doesn't believe that a mere copper coin can cause much trouble, and he can be scared by these words, it can be seen that these two knights guarding the door have not seen much of the world. But Earl Dave, who manages the finances around Peacock City, is different, if he really doesn't take Su Xiao's words seriously, I'm afraid that he will directly let these two knights drive people away, how can he invite them in to sit? Looking at the constipated expressions on the faces of the two knights, it must be that Earl Dave exerted a certain amount of pressure on them after getting the news.
Since this is the case, Su Xiao also has a little confidence, nodded and said, "Okay, let's go in and wait." ā
As soon as a few people entered the courtyard, there was already a spirited old man guarding the side in front of the villa gate, wearing a Yanwei suit and a dark gold cane. Seeing Su Xiao and a few people approaching, he hurriedly showed a polite smile and welcomed: "Old man Jias, he is the butler of the Earl's Palace, and the Lord Earl is entertaining guests in the study at this time, so a few of them will take a break in the living room first, and the old man will entertain you well." ā
The old butler named Jias was calm and relaxed, his eyes were shining, Su Xiao couldn't help but look at it a few more times, and when his gaze fell on the dark golden cane in the other party's hand, he couldn't help but be shocked in his heart - level 40 silver scepter, the language of the dark star!
When testing "Abyss City" before, Zhang Yang, the first battle mage of the national server, specially invited Su Xiao to help brush this scepter, so Su Xiao was very impressed by the shape of this weapon!
Unexpectedly, a Count's Mansion would be Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, at least a level 40 battle mage, in terms of level, this Jias is the only person Su Xiao has seen in Peacock City who can be compared to Simon Malca, the leader of the Jade Phoenix Mercenary Regiment! In terms of the quality of the weapons, Captain Simon's two Ice Spirit White Jade Swords are only level 40 Purple Martial Arts, while the Dark Star Whisper is a level 40 Lord Artifact! From this point of view, this old butler's combat effectiveness may be even better than that of Captain Simon!
Su Xiao nodded politely at the other party, and while following Kias into the house, he said without a trace: "You can let a battle mage of more than forty levels be a butler, Earl Dave is really very prestigious." ā
Hearing Su Xiao's words, Chen Yaxuan and the four of them were inexplicable, but the old housekeeper Jias was different, his footsteps paused, and his sword-sharp gaze instantly poked Su Xiao's face! Seeing that Su Xiao looked at him so generously, after a few seconds, Gias took the initiative to put away his gaze and said with a smile: "The old man has been the housekeeper of this family since the reign of the previous generation of Earl Dave, and he has been engaged in housekeeping for almost forty years, and he has never been recognized. He is worthy of being a brave man, his eyes are like torches, and he admires. ā
The five of them sat down under the arrangement of Gias, and before their buttocks were hot, they saw five good-looking maids walking out of the depths of the villa with coffee.
Gias said proudly: "The food at Earl's Court is average, but the coffee is of the highest quality. ā
Coffee, a drink for upper-class people, Su Xiao really couldn't drink it, so he took a sip, the bitter and astringent taste penetrated his heart, no matter how high-end it was, it was not as delicious as a canned drink in a certain nest in his eyes. However, under the smug gaze of Gias, he still had to pretend to understand very well, and said politely: "Not bad, good, it tastes great." ā
Among the five people present, Chen Yaxuan can taste the grade of coffee, Sugerman and Kekeli frowned while drinking, it was really painful and happy, but Alice couldn't bear it at all, just poured a sip into her mouth, and the next second it was all sprayed, and she complained to Chen Yaxuan: "Sister, this is so unpalatable!" ā
Seeing that Jias's old face was red and embarrassed and ashamed, Su Xiao hurriedly said, "She is still young, and she only drinks juice." ā
Just as Jias was informing the maid to squeeze a glass of juice, Sugerman leaned into Su Xiao's ear and whispered, "Hey buddy, look at those maids, one is more beautiful than the other, and they are convex and warped." ā
Su smiled at him and said impatiently, "If you don't care about your eyes and mouth anymore, I will tell Kekeli what you just said word for word." ā
There is no need to doubt Su Xiao's seriousness, on the one hand, he can't get used to Su Geman's problem of looking for flowers and willows all over the world as soon as he finds a partner, and on the other hand, he is worried that Su Geman will delay his big event - he will have to discuss the deal with the owner of this villa later, if he is followed by a guy who watches other people's maids drool, then doesn't he seem to be very low?
Earl Dave was entangled in official business, and Su Xiao and the others waited for nearly two hours, but fortunately, the old butler Jias was thoughtful, which did not make a few people awkward, and even Alice, who had always been unable to sit still, had a good time with the maid who took care of her.
Just when Su Xiao was bored, a hearty laugh suddenly came from the direction of the study: "These are the brave, right?" ā
Before the sound arrived, seeing that all the maids in the living room were bent down to salute, Su Xiao immediately knew that it was Earl Dave who was coming, and looked in the direction of the voice, and really saw a tall young man, in his twenties, blond hair and blue eyes, sword eyebrows and starry eyes, wearing a red striped aristocratic robe on a black background, and silver-edged gold thread snow satin boots, his gestures were noble and magnificent, and his tone of voice was even more gentle and elegant, without the slightest domineering, "I am entangled in official business, so that a few people have been waiting for a long time!" ā
Su Xiao comes from a world where faces are seen, and the image of Earl Dave is a big plus, at least the first impression is better than that of the city lord of 2580,000 I don't know how many times. People are polite to me, and I naturally won't be lazy, Su Xiao hurriedly got up and said politely: "No, no, but we disturbed the earl's office." ā
Hearing Su Xiao's words, Earl Dave laughed heartily, and while inviting them to sit down, he said, "What's the trouble not to disturb, the office office, won't it share the worries of the people?" I heard that the brave man came to me to discuss important matters, and it was too late for me to welcome it, so why did I feel troublesome? I just don't know what the brave man is going to discuss? ā
Yes, everyone has brought the topic to business, Su Xiao brewed a lot of social rhetoric in vain, took out a handful of copper sand from his backpack and poured it on the table, and said with a smile: "We found a large amount of this copper sand in the small village deep in the Savage Snow Mountain, I don't know what Earl Dave thinks about it?" ā
"Isn't this the copper sand in your village?" Sugerman leaned in to take a look, then turned back and whispered to Klee, "This thing is valuable?" ā
Looking at the copper sand on the table, Ke Keli was also stunned, and then leaned into Su Xiao's ear and whispered: "Su Xiao, these copper sand can't forge equipment at all, and they have no value at all." ā
At this time, the difference in IQ between people is reflected, Chen Yaxuan obviously did not regard this kind of copper sand as a rare thing before, otherwise the villagers would not have given Su Xiao a bunch, but she firmly believed that Su Xiao would not be untargeted, and then thought of his previous words to intimidate the gatekeeper - a major event related to the monetary economy of the Snow Country, she guessed the answer in the blink of an eye, and asked in a low voice: "Could this copper sand be the material for making copper coins?" ā
Hearing this, Kekli was shocked, she had grown up playing with this kind of sand, and she had never thought of this kind of copper sand that flooded the village into currency!
Also surprised was Earl Dave, although he did not have a Kekli childhood, but he had been exposed to a large amount of currency, and had one of the best economic knowledge in the snow country, was reminded by Chen Yaxuan, he immediately reacted, the copper sand on the table is the same as the copper coin in terms of color and texture, he doesn't even need to touch it with his hands, he can be sure that this copper sand is definitely the raw material of copper coins!
In addition to being surprised, Earl Dave was also attracted by Chen Yaxuan's personal charm, which was not inferior to the facial features and temperament of the elf race, as well as her obvious superior vision and intelligence, no matter which point, Chen Yaxuan was countless times more noble than those noble ladies who only knew that they were inflammatory, exaggerated and extravagant in the court, and even made Earl Dave, a nobleman who had read countless women, couldn't help but show his appreciative eyes.
"This brave lady, even the angels dancing by the throne are not enough to describe your beauty, I wonder if I can be lucky enough to ask for your name?"
