Chapter 34: A Visit to Jones
Until the end of the meal for the four of them, Yanni did not appear again.
After the meal, Becolis took Noron and Ellie to continue their tour of the imperial capital, and went to many well-known attractions in the imperial capital. Later, in the evening, Becellis gathered several nobles of his faction whom he had mentioned in the morning, or representatives sent by these nobles, to end the dinner.
Refusing Beccolis's offer to send them back, Noron took Ellie to wander around the imperial capital at night, and from time to time found some special snacks and trinkets, which Noron bought for Ellie. At nearly ten o'clock in the evening, the two returned to the villa. Noron took a bath under the showerhead, and when he came back, he sank into the bathtub full of hot water and dried it up, and slept together.
On the third day of his arrival in the imperial capital, after a breakfast of steak, bread and black tea, Noron asked Odom, who could drive the carriage, to take him and Ellie into the carriage that had been provided with the villa by Beccolis, and drove to the mansion of the Swordmaster of Annville with some pastries bought last night, ready to talk to Jones.
Hearing that he was going to the mansion of Lord Anville, the Protector Sword Saint, Odom was speechless with excitement, he didn't expect that his new master was actually qualified to visit the mansion of the Protector Sword Saint, and he also had more heartfelt respect for Nuo's husband.
After getting out of the carriage, Noron approached the gate of the mansion, and the two swordsmen guarding the door of the mansion glanced at each other, and one of the guards, who was closer to Norlong, saluted him, and asked with a smile: "Hello this gentleman, is there anything wrong with you?" β
Nolon was holding a bag of pastries in his left hand and Ellie in his right hand, and he also showed a smile: "Hello, my name is Noron Burton, and I am here to find Mr. Jones Cage." I came to the imperial capital with him a few days ago, and I made an appointment to visit him, I don't know if he is at home now? β
The guard nodded thoughtfully, "You are Mr. Norlon?" My uncle did mention that a gentleman named Noron would be visiting today. Please come in, my uncle is at home, and I will show you the way. β
He motioned to the other guard, opened the side door, and led the others towards the mansion.
The mansion of the Protector Sword Saint was very large, and it took the three of them nearly twenty minutes to walk through a large garden, pass by two school fields, and a martial arts hall where the sound of fighting was heard from time to time, before they came to several buildings with four or five stories high.
At this time, the guard stopped an old man who had just come out at the door: "Lord Daddy Grassy, please go and talk to your uncle, he ordered the day before yesterday that Mr. Norlong, who will come to him in the next few days, come." β
The name of the man named Growley was an old man who looked to be about sixty years old, but in the other world, where the life span of high-level professionals was more than one hundred and thirty years old, he was definitely more than sixty years old.
The butler, named Grayrie, glared at Noron fiercely, snorted, and turned and walked in again. The guard saw that Noron was a little inexplicable, and explained to him with a wry smile: "Butler Glory is the old man in the family, he is eighty years old this year, and he grew up watching the young lady. Because my uncle married a young lady and married two more ladies, so I hated him very much, and I was even unhappy with my uncle's friends, I'm really sorry. β
"It's okay," Nolon could understand this kind of thing, and an old man made him stare at nothing: "I know, a thousand mistakes, all Jones' fault, I'll count it on Jones's head." β
Seeing that Noron didn't care, and was going to take Jones with him, the guard smiled 'haha': "This is no better." β
Just as Nuo's husband was chatting with the guard, Jones strode up to him with a surprised smile: "Your Excellency Norlong, I didn't expect you to come so early today, please come in quickly, I have already asked people to make black tea and prepare pastries waiting for you." β
Noron nodded to the guards who were about to leave, pulled Ellie, whose eyes lit up when he heard the black tea and pastries, and followed Jones towards the room.
After entering the room, he changed into wooden shoes under the service of the maid, handed her the gift, and followed Boss Cage out of the Xuanjian, and after a corridor, he saw a large living room, with a yellow glass coffee table in the center, and several plates of brightly colored, slightly sweet and greasy pastries, a plate of cut fruit, a pot of steaming black tea, a stack of white sugar cubes and a few pure white teacups.
Another maid stood aside, and after a few people were seated, she poured a cup of cold and fragrant black tea, bowed her head and served aside.
"Come, Mr. Norlon," Boss Cage said, raising his glass, "I know you don't drink, so I'll replace it with tea here, and I will toast you to thank you for helping me solve a big problem." β
"Well, Mr. Jones, don't say that, we're helping each other, and there's nothing to thank you for. Also, Mr. Jones calls me Noron, and I don't use honorifics anymore. Noron excused himself.
"Okay, then I'll call you Brother Noron in the future, and you can call me Brother Jones in the future, please."
Poor brother? That's a funny name (laughs). "Please."
After drinking this cup of black tea, the maid lady on the side came up and poured it again for the three of them, and the cold black tea was poured into the cup in a swirl, and a faint mist was raised in this early summer.
"Brother Nuolong, when you first arrived in the imperial capital, you don't have a place to live, brother, I still have a few guest rooms here, why don't you and your fiancΓ©e stay here with me, and we can communicate a lot." With his hands crossed on the table, Jones said with a warm smile, and after changing his name, the warm smile on his face became much more sincere.
"Thank you for your kindness, Brother Jones," but Noron declined politely, "but I was lucky enough to find a job after I separated from you, and the boss gave me a small cottage, and the accommodation problem has been solved, so I don't need to bother my brother." β
"Oh?" Jones was a little curious: "I wonder if Brother Noron can reveal which bigwig with extraordinary vision hired Brother Norlon?" In the imperial capital, there are not many characters who shoot a villa. Karon City is mixed and has many forces, so you have to be careful, brother! β
Noron stopped talking, glanced at the maid next to him, Jones understood, and waved her away. Ellie took the opportunity to lift the porcelain pot filled with black tea, and in Noron's crying and laughing gaze, she took the pastry and began to destroy everything in front of her with a big gulp of the teapot.
Noron sighed helplessly, pushed his cup of black tea to Ellie, and continued: "After separating from Brother Jones yesterday, I accidentally met His Royal Highness the Grand Prince of Bekelis in the auction house, and after some deliberation, he was hired as a staff member at my request that I could hardly refuse, and now I can be regarded as working for the royal family." β
Jones didn't have a surprised expression at all, and after seeing the legendary-level magic refining suit again, becoming the chief of staff of the great prince was nothing. With joy on his face, he congratulated Nuolong on finding a good boss: "His Royal Highness the Great Prince treats the corporal with courtesy, courage and wit; He is tolerant and kind, humorous and funny, and he is a leader among several princes. Brother, you can help him with advice, that's amazing. β
"Where is it, Brother Jones is, the first time he arrived in the unfamiliar Xufeng City, he has laid a promise in less than thirty years, and he has three beautiful wives, fulfilling the dream of every man on the continent of Lafiyaa!"
The two looked at each other and laughed tacitly.
Ellie was silently eating her pastry, ignoring the hypocritical conversations of the adults.
