379 Business Cooperation
There is no way, although Nanxing complained a few words in his heart, but the wish of the "Page" still has to be fulfilled, otherwise there is no way to recover all the energy.
But how can Evans win the favor of Princess Stephanie?
Nanxing was a little troubled.
Originally, Nanxing was very bad at feelings, and she didn't know much about Princess Stephanie, and she couldn't do what she liked, which was really troublesome.
In the evening, Nanxing did not go to the dining room to have dinner with Duke Josephine's family, but ordered the maid to have the food delivered to the house.
It's still great to be a magician, and you don't have to follow the social etiquette you don't want to follow, anyway, the strange temper of a magician is recognized by everyone.
The daily breakfast, lunch and dinner in the Duke's Palace are very particular, such as yesterday's dinner or noon beef was eaten, so in the evening, unless the duke or duchess spoke, there would be no beef dishes, which is also to avoid making people feel the singleness of the dish.
After all, only poor families will eat the same kind of food constantly, and as the Duke of the Solent Empire, even the dishes of the week should not be the same.
After dinner, the dessert is lighter, not a cake-like pastry, but a pot of honey tea, which comes from the depths of the northern forests. It is the only place where a species of bee called the two-winged camel bee grows, and the nectar they produce has a unique fragrance and is very good for calming the nerves.
A fist-sized piece of winged camel honey can buy fifty gold coins in the imperial capital, and this pot of tea will use up almost a quarter.
Taking a sip of sweet black tea in his mouth, Nanxing began to think about how to help Evans make his wish come true.
First of all, of course, it is necessary to understand Princess Stephanie's personality and preferences, and then let Evans prescribe the right medicine. Secondly, it should still be okay to be a princess as the second young master of Duke Evans' Mansion, but he can't be too wasteful, otherwise with King Pedro's love for Princess Stephanie, he will not easily marry her to an ordinary nobleman.
This is where the Duke of Josephine comes in, he himself served as Minister of Trade and Trade in the Solent Empire, a position that was not very high, but it was very important, because he could determine the empire's economy and foreign business strategy.
Duke Josephine himself was very good at business, and since he inherited his father's title of duke, the income of the entire ducal palace has increased dozens of times.
It was also because of this that King Pedro appointed him Minister of Trade. After the Duke of Josephine took office, the entire trade of the Solent Empire did grow considerably.
In addition, Duke Josephine and Reich Chancellor of the Exchequer Ryan Truss are quite good friends.
Rhein Truss is the current patriarch of the Truss family, and the ram is also a duke, and his family owner is the largest red wine brewing and selling business in the imperial capital, and basically half of the red wine in God's country is produced from his family's vineyards.
But the Duke of Josephine had a certain stake in the Rhine family's wine industry, but this fact is rarely known. So the relationship between the two was very close, and it was the Rhine who was the guarantor at that time that allowed Duke Josephine to get this position.
Ryan Truss now has two daughters and three sons, the eldest daughter is about the same age as Grote, and Rhine intends to marry Duke Josephine, although the two parties did not hold an engagement ceremony, but this matter is basically certain.
As for Evans, because he is still young, Duke Josephine has not yet considered this matter, and Duchess Arya also thinks that her son's focus now should be on his studies.
I don't think Evans told his mother that he was in love with Princess Stephanie, knowing that for a child of that age, the words of a teacher are much more useful than the words of a parent.
There are two festivals in the Solent Empire where members of the royal family can be seen in public, one is the National Day on June 30 every year, and the other is Harvest Day on September 20 every year.
On these two days, according to the custom, the members of the royal family are to celebrate with the people, so on these two days, all the people can see the king, queen, several princes and princesses in the victory square in front of the palace gate.
In addition, on these two days, there will be banquets in the royal palace, and Duke Josephine can bring his family to the banquet, as has been the case in previous years.
The banquet is nothing more than eating and drinking, watching the performances, and praising the king, and it seems that if you want to impress Princess Stephanie, you must rush to these two banquets.
Calculating the time, the National Day has passed, and there are still two months before the harvest day. In terms of time, she is still very rich, but Nanxing is a little unsure about what to perform, because she has no idea what Princess Stephanie likes.
……
"Evans, do you know Princess Stephanie's preferences?"
Nanxing felt that since he didn't know, he might as well ask one of the parties, after all, it was also to help him.
"Princess Stephanie loves clever little things, and remembers that last year the Duchy of Lordammere sent a batch of gifts to celebrate the 1278th National Day of the Solent Empire.
Among the gifts was a recorder instrument unique to the Duchy of Lordamere, but it was made into a work of art with a carved pattern of seawater, which had to be hung in a windy window to play a melodious melody like ocean waves.
At that time, Princess Stephanie took a fancy to this recorder, and King Pedro gave her the flute without saying anything, and it is still hanging in her window. ”
Love ambidextrous gadgets?
This is good news, there are not many other things in the chaotic space of the Southern Star, but there are really a lot of messy gadgets. Every time, Nanxing buys it when he sees a liking or novelty.
Originally, he wanted to bring back the 3700 year to sell, but since Shang Lu fell into a coma, Nanxing didn't have the heart to do this.
"Okay, I got it. Then remember to go back and meditate. ”
This is the second magic lesson of the week, and the last of the week. The other five days, which the original Mayel had already negotiated with Duke Josephine, were her own time.
At night, Nanxing set up a shielding magic array in the house, and then reached into the chaotic space to rummage through the objects that could be used.
Music boxes, cartoon pillows, and very artistic knick-knacks, Nanxing looked at these things, and she had an idea.
……
The next day, Nanxing found Duke Josephine.
"Ms. Mayer, are you still used to living in it lately?"
"Good." Nanxing thought about it for a while and talked about Grote and Evans' learning, "Both of them have practiced magic meditation well, and I believe that they can start practicing basic magic after a while." ”
Duke Josephine smiled slightly, "This is what Lady Mayer has taught well. ”
"I'd like to talk to Duke Josephine about business cooperation."
"Oh?" Duke Josephine was obviously a little surprised, it was really a little strange for a magician to do business, "I wonder what business Lady Mayer wants to do?" As long as I can help, I will do my best. ”
Nanxing took out a few pieces of drawing paper from the magic storage ring, on which were the blueprints of a pillow, "This is it, a kind of doll for girls." ”
