Chapter 143: Eccentric Peter

Because he had seen this villa building with the same exterior and internal structure as No. 9 Golden Oak Street before, and saw the sunny scenes that belonged to the real world in the painting, Leo no longer had much surprise or surprise in his heart when he saw the nun's dress that belonged to the maid of the Lord of the Sky wearing a maid who was a descendant of the nobility of the dream world.

On the contrary, it was this thin aristocratic young man who was not much different from the dream world in his clothes that made Leo pay some attention, because he felt that this person was somewhat familiar, but after comparing the subbrain database, he could not find a person who matched it.

"Who am I, I guess I don't need to introduce myself!" After the wheelchair was pushed by the maid to the center of the room, under the attention of everyone, the aristocratic young man introduced himself very casually, and said with a smile: "My information must be in your data files, even if it is something I have forgotten, it should be recorded in detail by you, so you should know me better than myself, right?"

If someone else had introduced themselves like this, the merchants present might have turned around and left, after all, even if they did not have aristocratic status, they still had extraordinary status and power. But the person who said this was Peter Alcott, the youngest son of the famous Andre XIII, so this way of introducing himself sounded less harsh, but because of this casual way of talking, the merchants present felt that Peter Alcott was very approachable.

When Peter Alcott's words fell, the crowd around him came forward to salute and introduce themselves, and showed unusual respect for the young man, who was so thin that he could hardly even walk.

The reason why everyone present showed respect was not only because of the name Alcott, but also because of Peter Alcott himself.

Peter Alcott has several mechanical factories under his name, although these mechanical factories are almost the lowest among all similar mechanical factories in Ten Towns in terms of scale, but the various mechanical items produced by these mechanical factories are the top luxury goods in the aristocratic circle. From a mechanical timer that can be held in your hand to a steam heating unit installed for an entire urban house. All in all, the nobles of the Ten Towns did not want to be able to obtain an item from Peter Alcott's machine factory.

For a long time, merchants from all over the ten towns hope to be able to act as agents for the products of these machinery factories, even if they are loss-making agents, many people are willing, because the sale of these products is not only about money, but also about connections.

It's just that there are always exceptions to everything, among the more than forty people in the room, in addition to Leo, a special existence, there are still eight people standing in place and not expressing a special attitude towards Peter Alcott's arrival, and the interesting thing is that these eight people are all without exception, all exuding a faint spiritual energy fluctuation, it is obvious that they should all be pseudo-psychic beings who have stimulated their psionic talents through special methods.

At this time, it was as if Leo was looking at the eight people, and the eight people also looked at Leo, and there was a look of doubt in their eyes, and they also exchanged glances with each other silently, feeling like they were talking about Leo's origin.

After saying hello to Peter Alcott, Vitzmir returned to Leo's side, just in time to see the eight people looking at Leo, he couldn't help frowning, and said in a deep voice: "These guys are like Yubato in the cemetery, they smell the fishy smell and come over." As he spoke, he turned to Leo and whispered, "Although I shouldn't have said these words, I think it's better to remind Mr. Leo, these guys are not trustworthy, you just have to inquire and know that the people who have worked with these guys have disappeared inexplicably in the end." ”

"I don't think it's a good habit to speak ill of people behind people's backs, Witzmere. One of the pseudo-psionics closest to the two looked at Vitzmir with disdain, and said, "Are you still in the mood to wander around now?" I recently heard the news that the Ninth Chief has plans to change the direct merchant, shouldn't you stay in Silvermoon City and serve that lord well?"

"Your Excellency doesn't bother!" Witzmere ignored the other party's provocation and only replied coldly.

The other party didn't seem to be coming for Vitzmir, he quickly turned his head to look at Leo, and said with a smile: "No matter what price Vitzmir is willing to pay, I can make double it, Your Excellency is a smart person, you should know very well that a guy like Vitzmir who will be abandoned by the Ninth Chief at any time is definitely not a good partner to work with." ”

"You guy!" Vitsmir clenched his fists angrily when he saw the other party in front of him, saying bad things and digging into the wall, it seemed that if it wasn't for the wrong occasion, he would have made a move.

"I don't bother with this, I know exactly what I'm doing. Seeing that the matter was on him, Leo didn't like to think that nothing had happened, so he replied a little tactfully.

The other party's words just now seemed to be more to stimulate Vitzmir, and he was not sincere, so after hearing the refusal in Leo's words, he didn't dwell on it anymore, nodded slightly, and turned to leave. During the whole process, the other party deliberately ignored Vizmir, so angry that Vitzmir's face turned red, as if he had been burned.

"Mr. Leo, I ......" Wetsmir took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in his heart, and turned his head to explain to Leo.

Leo raised his hand for a moment, then smiled, "Don't say it, Mr. Witzmere, I just don't think it's a good idea to change partners casually." ”

"Thank you. Witzmir exhaled slightly, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and relaxed slightly.

At this time, Peter Alcott had already had a brief exchange with these merchants, and his eyes also seemed to casually glance at the few people who did not come forward to greet them, including Leone.

Like other descendants of hereditary aristocracy, Peter Alcott received special training from an early age to learn how to hide his emotional changes. No matter how much his mood fluctuated so far, the abnormal expression caused by his emotions stayed on his face for less than half a second, and unless he was the kind of person who was particularly observant, it was difficult for anyone to detect the change in his expression in such a short period of time.

However, in the face of Leo, who is very careful and keen, and has the instantaneous memory assistance of the auxiliary brain system, no hidden change in expression can escape his eyes.

At this moment, Leo noticed that Peter Alcott did not show any unusual expressions when he looked at the other eight merchants representing the chief wizards of the Wizarding Guild. Only when his gaze swept over him, Peter Alcott's face was stunned, and his gaze also stayed on his face for a moment, with a hint of doubt in his eyes, and at the same time a hint of confusion.

At the moment when this expression was projected onto the retina by the accessory brain system, Leo was very sure that the youngest son of the seventh Alcott family must have felt the same as himself, and he felt that he had seen each other somewhere, but he couldn't remember it.

"This time, I took advantage of my father's banquet to invite you here, mainly for one thing. Although he was puzzled by Leo's origin, Peter Alcott didn't pay too much attention to Leo, and quickly turned to the surrounding merchants and said, "Three days ago, the First Chief calculated that the Waste Capital would appear in the town of the Seventh Lake, and you should have come here for this purpose!"

After Peter Alcott's words fell, the expressions of everyone around him, including Vitzmere, also became serious, and Leo, who had always put himself in the position of a bystander, faintly sensed the change in anger that this waste capital appeared in the town of Seventh Lake, I am afraid that it was the incident that Vitzmere said before, so he focused his attention on Peter Alcott's next words.

Among the eight people, the middle-aged man with the strongest spiritual energy fluctuations in his body stood up, saluted Peter Alcott, and then said without humility or arrogance: "Your Excellency Peter, you should know very well that although the waste capital appeared in the Seventh Lake Town, the nobles of the Lake Town are not qualified to intervene in this matter. ”

Peter Alcott seemed to have expected this to happen, and quickly stated his intentions, "Of course I know this rule, and I have no intention of breaking the rules set by the Wizarding Guild and the Night's Watch, I just hope that you, or the people you have found to participate in this matter, can help me find something after entering the ruined capital." I will not let you do things in vain, so I can bear all the costs of this operation, and after the work is completed, let the person who completes the commission select five items from my factory and grant permanent agency. ”

Everyone was stunned when they heard Peter Alcott's words, and then they heard a burst of inhalation in the room, as if they wanted to suck all the gas in the room into their lungs.

For these traders, the terms of the deal proposed by Peter Alcott were so heavy that they could not believe it.

Four years ago, a small nobleman in Fifth Lake Town, who had just obtained the status of nobility, was lucky enough to obtain the agency of a mechanical item from Peter Alcott, and since then he has accumulated a lot of wealth in just one year, and his power has increased with the increase of wealth, and finally he has become the second noble family of Fifth Lake Town.

The agency of just one item has already caused such an effect, if it is five items, I am afraid that the person who is authorized will be able to benefit from it will be a staggering number, and at that time, let alone become the second noble family of the fifth lake town, even if it is the second noble family of the first lake town, it is not an impossible thing.

"Is the steam car we are riding in also under the authority?" asked Vitzmere, suppressing the excitement in his heart, and hurriedly asked Peter Alcott.

"Of course!" Peter Alcott nodded affirmatively, "as long as the items are in the machine factory, they can get permanent agency." ”

While everyone was indulging in the huge benefits implied by the agency of goods, Leo didn't care about these benefits, he was more concerned about other things, so he asked: "Your Excellency Peter, what are you looking for?

As Leo's words fell, the people around him gradually quieted down, and all their attention was on Peter Alcott, waiting for the other party to say the answer.

"What I want is very simple, just a dream stone. Peter Alcott was quick to announce the answer.

After Peter Alcot finished speaking, everyone fell silent, and they were not shocked by the object that the youngest son of the seventh Alcott family wanted, but they all showed a blank expression, obviously they didn't know what the dream stone was.

Only three of the eight merchants with deep backgrounds involuntarily showed solemn expressions on their faces, the spiritual energy fluctuations on these three people are the strongest among the eight, and their identities and positions are also different, faintly the leader of the eight people, it is obvious that compared to others, they know better what the dream stone is and how to obtain it.

"What is a dream of a stone?" a merchant asked in a deep voice, unable to hold back the curiosity in his heart.

"You can ask your respective masters, if your masters don't even know what the dream stone is, they are not qualified to cooperate with me. Peter Alcott glanced at the trader, replied in a cold tone, and then smiled slightly, and said to everyone: "My matter has been discussed, if you are interested in cooperation, you can register in my factory in the outer city in two days, if you don't register, you will be my competitor, then I hope you don't complain that I went too far." ”

After speaking, he motioned to the maid behind him, and the maid pushed the wheelchair and left the room directly.

"If any of you want to leave, let the servant take you away," the old butler stood up at this time and said to the crowd, "If you want to attend the banquet, you can also order the servant to lead you to the front hall, I hope you can have a good time." ”

After saying that, the old butler retreated to Leo's side, and even if the person he wanted to protect left, he still saw Leo as a major threat.

Although the owner of the room left, the other guests in the room did not intend to leave immediately, and they gathered in groups to discuss things in whispers.

From the time Peter Alcott came in to the time when he left, less than five minutes before and after he left, less than ten words were spoken, but it was enough for the merchants present, and the only question now was how they were going to convince their masters behind them, and how to get their share of the reward when the final thing was done.

"I'll go first! Later, I'll go to the agreed place to find you. As a lone wolf, Leo's cooperation with Vitzmere was already the limit of what he could accept, and adding some more collaborators would only cause unnecessary intrigues, so he decided to leave now.

But Witzmere, who took the initiative to seek cooperation from Leo, did not think so, he preferred to find more collaborators like a fisherman casting a net, so that the master behind him would have more opportunities to choose, as long as one collaborator was favored by his master, even if his task was completed, he would be able to keep his current position.

So when Leo said to leave, he only held back a little, and then turned his attention to a few merchants not far away.
