The light rain in the early morning was irritating, and the mud on the streets made women in their favorite dresses reluctant to go out, and stood at the door hesitantly.

The grocery store window in the town of Shining Gold has been opened, heralding the beginning of a new day, and the owner standing in front of the grocery store keeps complaining. "Could it be that the bigwigs of Shining Gold only know how to keep building tall buildings to show off their achievements, but they are not willing to spend a little money to repair this damn street? ”

The door of a nearby tavern creaked open, and the owner came out and poured some oil on the bearings of the wooden door, rubbing the stubble that had grown up overnight. "Only the tall buildings can be seen by the arrogant officials who only look up, who never look down at the road, because they sit in the carriage and don't get a little mud on it. ”

The grocery store owner prayed in his heart. "Maybe only Master Cafu will give us hope, he's a good man. ”

Foster, who lived in a small wooden building on the main street of Shining Gold, wore a suit made of linen, dressed meticulously, and covered his hair with hair wax.

No one else can go out, but he has to go out, because he has to run for a living, and no one will bring bread and milk to him when he lies in bed.

And there is another very important event today, the great Count Cafu will come to the square of the town of Shining Gold to announce the exciting news of the townspeople, he will invest in a grand livelihood project, so that the poor living in the slums can move from the slums to the big and bright houses, free from malaria.

Count Cafu was the richest and most powerful nobleman in the town of Shining Gold, but he was not at all as arrogant as the other nobles, he always compared himself to the poor people, and putting down his stature was not something that every big man could do, such as those who were high up in the town.

As one of the employees of the town government, Foster had to be there to applaud the charity, and he hoped that one day he would be able to become a big man like Count Cafu, so he had to work hard.

When he went out and saw the muddy road, Foster felt a little sorry for the cheap leather shoes he had bought with half a month's savings on his feet, but he had to go out, and he was ruthless, Foster carefully avoided those mud puddles and walked forward slowly.

A carriage came galloping from behind him, and Foster couldn't dodge, and his clean-washed suit was stained with mud, which was his beloved clothes, how could he go to the grand ceremony. "Hi, you stained my clothes. He shouted angrily, and quickened his pace to avoid the carriage fleeing, but his shoes were also damaged.

Seeing that the carriage was about to flee, Foster stopped and cursed as he bent over to scrape the mud off the vamp with his fingers.

Unexpectedly, however, the carriage stopped twenty paces away, and someone poked its head out of the window. "Sir, I'm sorry for what happened to you. ”

Foster heard the voice and looked at the head poking out of the car window, it was a very handsome face, with an apologetic face, and his hair was combed backwards, a standard gentleman's hairstyle.

Getting up and walking over, Foster spread his hands and remained angry. "You've soiled my clothes, and I have a very important ceremony to attend. ”

The gentleman apologized solemnly. "I'm very sorry for my behavior, so get in the car, I'm willing to give you a new dress and give you a ride. ”

Foster didn't expect such a response, but was a little restrained, and his face was flushed, and it stands to reason that these high-class people who could afford to sit in a carriage would not feel guilty about soiling the clothes of a small person.

"Thank you very much for your kindness, I'm just a little excited, except for some mud on my clothes, it's fine. ”

Foster stood aside, waiting for the carriage to leave, but the carriage did not leave, and the man in the carriage came down, his brightly polished boots stained with some mud, and the white shirt under the brown coat could be seen embroidered with a Lorimas rose, which was very conspicuous.

"Allow me to introduce myself to you, my name is Downing, Downing Stewart, and I'm sorry about soiling your clothes, and if you don't agree to my request, I'll be guilty of it. ”

Tang Ning placed his right hand on his chest and bowed in apology.

The carriage was decorated with animal skins very luxuriously, and Foster had never been in such a luxurious carriage, and he still looked very restrained.

Downing looked at Foster, who was a little unnatural at the moment. "What are you going to do, sir, I know it would be presumptuous to ask, but I hope you don't mind, because we have to find something to talk about and make the atmosphere less bad. ”

Foster smiled shyly. "Mr. Downing, I'm going to attend a ceremony about the town, and the Earl of Grand Cavford is going to build a house for the slums, and he's a great good man. ”

He is not hesitant to praise his idols, even in front of strangers, and he does not mind singing praises for his idols.

Downing was a little excited. "I think he must be the embodiment of an angel, and such a good man must be blessed and blessed by God. ”

Foster liked that his idol was commented on like this, and he began to become very enthusiastic, telling about Cafu's good deeds, and gushing endlessly. "Mr. Downing, aren't you a local?"

Downing gestured to the sword lying on the side of the carriage. "I'm a lover of adventure, and I've just come here, and to hear about such a good man, I must include it in my travelogue. ”

Foster was convinced, because he had no need to deceive himself, and judging by his speech and demeanor, the other party was not a bad person. "In that case, I can tell you more about Count Cafu's good deeds. ”

"That's fantastic. ”

Tang Ning's face suddenly became a little embarrassed. "I don't know if my next request is presumptuous, but I must say that if I hadn't seen such a good man for myself, I think my adventure would have been a bit regrettable. ”

The ceremony of the Earl of Cafu will be observed by many government people and nobles, but it is not easy for the commoners to enter, and he is only a small government official, otherwise he will carry clothes and briefcases for the big people.

But Forster felt that he could not refuse the kind request of the other party, and that a young man who came here wanted to meet the great good man should be able to satisfy this kind of request as much as possible, at least not the great good man, Mr. Cafu.

Thinking so, Foster nodded.

Foster felt that he had taken advantage of the clean suit he had bought for thirty Caesars, and that he had taken advantage of the suit he had changed, so that if he could not let the enthusiastic lad see Mr. Cafu, he would think it was his own fault.

The baroque grandeur of the building is solemn, with a huge statue of the king standing at the door, and every part of the building is very rigorous, because it represents the enforcer, which is the second only building to the church in the town, and it is also the office of the government, and the church is above the enforcer, this is an iron law, no one dares to break it, because the king is also appointed by the pope himself.

The huge and stately building is preceded by a huge square, which is paved with marble by countless craftsmen, which is also one of Cafu's great works.

The mayor's sexy mustache trembled with his lips, and there were countless big names, the town's first prosecutor, the sheriff's commissioner, the priest of the church, and the most dazzling of all, the kind old man in a suit, Cafu, all of whom mingled with each other with wine glasses, talking about the next big thing.

A sheriff standing in the corner saluted in the direction of the Commissioner, then nodded, and the Commissioner waved his hand and walked over to Cafu.

"Count, the matter is done, and you can speak as much as you like, absolutely foolproof, and when the time comes, people will praise you loudly for your good deeds, and you will be more famous than ever. ”

Cafu's face glowed red, and as the most prestigious nobleman in Shining Gold, he enjoyed being called by the inhabitants the Venerable Angel, the messenger sent by God to save mortals, although his original wealth was not very glorious, and he was able to bring down a big banker named Anubarak for some big people, and finally he got one-thousandth of the big banker's fortune, and went from a small clerk in a bank to the rich man he is today.

With the wealth he had obtained, he moved to this place called Shining Gold, and by some shady means he had gained a fortune and a reputation that he was most proud of, and this time his wealth would grow further because of the slum.

"Tambor, my sincere and friendly friend, thank you for your help and we have a toast to this cause. Cafu raised his glass and clinked glasses with Sheriff Tambor.

Foster stood in the doorway, explaining to the sheriff who was maintaining order. "This Mr. Downing is a good friend of mine, and he has heard of Count Cafu's good deeds, and would like to see Earl Cafu for himself, and it would be nice if you could agree. ”

The little sheriff looked at Downing and smiled contemptuously. "Only the people of high society are allowed to enter here, unless you can prove that your friend is not a vulgar thief, or the nobles will lose their precious belongings, and I don't think you, a small government clerk, can bear this responsibility. ”

Foster's face flushed, and he felt embarrassed in front of Downing, and wanted to explain to the sheriff, but Downing opened the small box he was carrying and took out a hundred Caesar bills.

"Sir, I think you have misunderstood, I am from the Stewart family in Blott City, this is a small gift for you, please accept it, I am an adventure lover, to be able to meet Mr. Cafu will be an important part of my adventure, please be accommodating. ”

Blott City is a large city five hundred miles away, and it is not comparable to the town of Flashgold.

The little sheriff saw a stack of neatly stacked banknotes in a small box inlaid with a few precious stones, which was not something that a thief or a little man could have, a hundred Caesars' gifts, and only those noble sons who had a lot of money had the handiwork, obviously the identity of this noble prince was beyond doubt, although he didn't know if there really was such a Stewart family in Blott City, and most of those rich noblemen liked some adventures.

His attitude immediately became very respectful. "Dear Mr. Downing, of course you can participate in this grand event in your capacity, please come in. ”

Downing entered the government meeting, and Foster followed, looking a little surprised, he didn't expect that this adventurer would be a noble son of high society, who once bought him a suit worth thirty Caesars, he thought it was just a prodigal boy with a small savings.

"Mr. Downing, look, that's Mr. Cafu, and with him is Mr. Tambour, the sheriff of Shining Gold. Foster followed, hurriedly raising his hand to introduce him.

Downing took one look at it, thinking to himself, "Uncle Anubarak, I think you'll love his ending."
