Chapter 116: Rich and Rival Country

Leaving the stunned Viscountess Renélé far behind, Julien's convoy headed deep into the imperial capital.

"What a vibrant city. ”

The streets of the imperial capital were bustling with traffic, and the bright streets were full of vendors, and the noise was enough to raise dust for ten miles, although it was slightly noisy, but it was full of vitality, which couldn't help but make Julian sigh.

"Young master, the imperial capital is bigger and more beautiful than Angry Wave City. Charlotte, who had come to the imperial capital for the first time, was extremely excited.

Rosalind looked away without interest, she didn't like the city.

The imperial capital, the residence of the emperor in the world, has the strongest and majestic city walls in the world, the most lively and prosperous bazaar, and the most dense population.

But Rosalind didn't like the city, she looked at Julian who was playing with Charlotte and sighed quietly, her eyes looked at the location of the palace, for more than three hundred years, the emperor sat on his throne and commanded the world, and the princes of the four directions dared not obey.

The prosperity of the imperial capital is entirely due to the support of the entire empire, the imperial capital is like a towering tree, its roots extend downward and in all directions, drawing nutrients from the entire empire, and then delivering them to the canopy, so the imperial capital will flourish and tower.

Every year, a large number of valuable goods such as iron ore, gold, and cloth will be continuously transported to the imperial capital, and the power of the central government will become stronger and stronger, and the control over the princes will become stronger and stronger, and finally when the power of the central government reaches its peak, the local princes are no longer able to resist the central government, and everyone has to bow down to the royal family.

Rosalind sighed faintly, Julian didn't understand this.

But who can understand Yuri's peace of mind?! Julian's eyes sparkle as he looks at this majestic city, and he looks forward to the future.

The strong should be more beautiful and stronger! Julian regards this as the creed of life, if the residence of an emperor is not as good as a prince, then this emperor is just a vain, so Julian will not only not hate and hate the city, but will appreciate the city with admiration.

"Soldiers and plagues will destroy this imperial city, and I will reign over the ruins. "Julian's ambition is terrifying.

"Young Master, I've been waiting for you for a long time. ”

Dressed in a neat black butler suit, Sebas stood in front of the McCarvey family's mansion in the imperial capital, looking respectful and submissive.

Sebas had arrived in the imperial capital in one step earlier, and was responsible for arranging everything before Julian arrived, the McCarvey family's mansion in the imperial capital had been uninhabited for many years, so it had been deserted for a while, although there were servants taking care of it, but the flower beds in the courtyard were still overgrown with weeds, and the furniture in the room was also covered with a layer of dust, ah, these lazy servants must be punished, Sebas fed them to his own crows, re-recruited a group of good servants, and worked with him to put everything in order before Julian's convoy arrived。

Fortona cleverly jumped out of the carriage and opened the door for Julian.

Julian stepped out of the carriage with graceful steps, and then helped Rosalind and Charlotte down, and then solemnly looked at the luxurious mansion.

Located in the aristocratic quarter, adjacent to the Royal Palace, this mansion was built by the famous architect Karak more than 300 years ago, and its elegant and solemn architectural style does not look outdated today, but is permeated with a classical atmosphere.

From this day on, Julian will live here, maybe a year, maybe two years, or five years......

"Dick, don't let me down. Julian muttered.

Then Julian said to Sebas, "Good work. ”

"That's what I'm supposed to do. Sebas said humbly, instructing the servants to carry the heavy suitcases into the house.

At this time, Leander walked up to Julian, ready to say goodbye, the Mogg family also has their own mansion in the imperial capital.

Julian didn't hold back, he was indeed a little tired, "There is time to come and sit, after all, we are all cousins, aren't we?"

"Hmm. It's time for me to go, that guy Carlos is already fidgeting. Leander smiled wryly.

Night fell, and a bright moon rose in the sky.

Julian sat in the living room waiting for the visitor's words, and Julian stomped the floor anxiously, "It's too slow. ”

"Young Master, you've only been doing it for ten minutes. Sebas said.

In between the two talking, the people in the palace reported: "The Marquis of La Forgard has come to visit." ”

Julian was very interested, how would the Marquis of Laforgard react to the humiliation of his daughter today?

After a while, a gray-haired but energetic old man walked up to Julian, led by his servant.

It seems that the aged Marquis LaForgard was among the Imperial Chancellors of the Exchequer, and was not overwhelmed by the complicated official duties, but was full of red faces.

"Greetings, Honourable Earl McCarvey. The Marquis de Laforgard said.

Julian didn't respond, whether he was the Empire's Chancellor of the Exchequer or a gray-haired old man. The sword-wielding nobles never regarded robed nobles such as the Marquis de LaForge as members of the aristocratic class, and in the eyes of the noble-blooded sword-wielding nobles, the robed nobles were at best stewards of their own wealth.

This clear class division and deep-rooted discrimination also affected Julian as a great nobleman, rather, the more noble the bloodline sword-wielding nobleman, the more contemptuous of the robed noble, even if he was a robed nobleman who was favored by the emperor.

The Marquis de LaForgard was not annoyed by Julian's contempt, for he had come to apologize: "I am sorry to forgive my daughter's stupidity, for not knowing the glory of the McCarvey family, and for disturbing your car. ”

"Sincerity! Sincerity! I need to see your sincerity! Don't talk this useless nonsense to me, I have been offended in unimaginable circumstances since the first day I arrived in the Imperial Capital, and I regard this hostile behavior as disrespect to me and my family, and it is a mistake that should not have happened!"

Sebas tells Julian that this is now the fashion in the imperial capital, and that a noble person should have a staff befitting his status, and use him to assert his power and drive away offenders. Long before Julian arrived, Sebas made a dignified and delicate cane for Julian to use.

The cane was indeed a good thing, and as it pounded the floor with a muffled thumping sound, a drop of cold sweat was left on the Marquis de Laforgard's wrinkled forehead.

"Also, you can ask your daughter's guards how your lovely, well-behaved daughter curses at me like a shrew, I swear! I've never heard so much foul language in my life. Julian's face was angry, and he didn't feel anything on the spot, but when he remembered it, Julian felt a heavy displeasure.

"Please believe that my daughter did not know your identity at the time. The Marquis de LaForgard was dripping in a cold sweat.

"Should you put up with your daughter's unbridled abuse if you were someone else? Marquis de LaForgard, your daughter lacks literacy!"

Julian's implication is that you have no tutor, your son is not a godfather's fault, and your whole family has a virtue.

The self-respecting Marquis de LaForgard was furious at such an insult, but he was powerless to resist a sword-wielding nobleman, so he lowered his gaze and said, "I will discipline my daughter well, it is my fault, so I shamelessly beg your forgiveness." ”

The Marquis of Laforgard bowed his head deeply, and to a young man old enough to be his grandson, "I will make reparations, I will pay you five thousand imperial gold coins as an apology, I did not expect this thin money to calm your anger, but only that you would feel a little better." ”

That's right! That's what Julian was waiting for!

Although the Marquis of Laforgard claimed that his ancestor was a Laforgard family from the south, the authenticity is doubtful, because the family is scarce and has long declined, and there are rumors that the Marquis of Laforgard gave the Laforgard family a large sum of money, so he was able to successfully write his name on the genealogy of the Laforgard family, Beauwang Laforgard.

How did the Marquis of La Forgard become the Marquis of La Forgard from a humble pariah, to the Minister of Finance of the Empire, and became the Marquis of La Forgard, because the Marquis of La Forgard was a complete nouveau riche, a banker, and it is said that the family had enough gold coins to pile up, and the toilet bowl in the toilet was made of gold, and he donated 100,000 gold coins to the royal family, so he was canonized by the emperor.

If you don't squeeze some money from this rich bastard, it is not in Julian's temperament, but it is really beyond Julian's expectations, it turns out that he wants the lion to open his mouth to ask for two or three thousand gold coins thinking that it is much enough, who would have thought that the Marquis of LaForge would be so rich, and the opening is five thousand gold coins, which is something that Julian did not expect, you must know that he almost robbed the Count of Noamun, and what he got was only more than 20,000 imperial gold coins.

After the Marquis of Laforgard left, Julian said regretfully: "I don't know how many daughters the Marquis of Laforgard has, and he still lacks a son-in-law." ”

Who can't get along with the glittering gold coins? Only a fool can catch the moon in the water.
