Chapter 438: Invitation

After Jason left, Leo returned to the study of witchcraft, but today was clearly not a good time for quiet research, when the butler Sanjes suddenly knocked on the door.

"What's the matter?" asked Leo as he ordered Sanjes to come in.

"There's an invitation from you. Sanjes said as he placed the tray in his hand in front of Leo, only to see that there was a very beautifully crafted invitation card in the tray.

"The invitation card was given to me?" Leo was stunned, reached out and picked up the invitation, opened it and looked at it, and wondered: "Marquis Roosevelt's mansion?

Sanjes quickly replied, "The machine shop you bought a few days ago belongs to the Roosevelt family, the Marquis Roosevelt was a court nobleman, but now he has resigned from his position and focused on developing the family business. Most of the Roosevelt family's estate was in the Kingdom of America, but there were still a few estates in the Kingdom of England, and the person who now handled the Roosevelt family's estate in Port Set was Sir Diffie Roosevelt, the heir of the Roosevelt family. ”

During this time, Leo was very satisfied with Sanjes, not only because of the things he ordered, Sanjes was able to complete them perfectly, such as the renovation of the apartment, etc., and even some things that he didn't expect could be solved perfectly, such as the recent investments and the management of the investment.

Leo only showed a little investment intention at that time, and the next day Sanjes brought a stack of sorted materials, which recorded all the projects that could be invested in Port Set, and also carefully used different colored pens to indicate the advantages and disadvantages of each investment, which helped Leo save a lot of time to collect information.

After the investment, Leo also wanted to test Sanjes's ability, so he put Sanjes in charge of the operation of these investments, and the results made him very satisfied, Sanjes not only remained his butler, but also found time to help him manage those investments perfectly, at least from the current point of view, the management is very good, several factories that are about to fail, can be up and running quickly, and get some orders.

Although these investments have not yet made Leo money, they are out of the verge of bankruptcy and can help him make some useful parts.

Not only in terms of business management, Sanjes satisfied Leo, but also in other aspects, such as intelligence gathering, etc., he was also very good, and the record book that Jason saw was obtained by Sanjes.

It was no longer surprising that Sanjes could easily tell the details of a great nobleman, and even knew about the family's business arrangements and plans.

"Do you think I should go?" asked Leo, setting the invitation aside.

"This is up to you, sir, to decide. Sanjes didn't answer directly, but made a detour and said, "The Sanjes family has already settled down after leaving the Kingdom of England, and this banquet is probably just to contact the feelings of the powerful people in the Kingdom of England and find suitable buyers for the goods they produce in the United States." ”

Leo immediately understood what Jace meant, and said, "In other words, this is just a business banquet?"

"Yes. Sanjes nodded, but then added, "Personally, though, I would recommend that you be able to make a trip." ”

"Why?" Leo knew very well that Sanjes was not a person who liked to give advice, and that his suggestions were often the most useful to Leo, so he was curious about the reason for Sanjes' advice this time.

Sanjeth didn't answer directly, but asked, "Didn't you want to collect some ancient artifacts lately?"

"Yes. Leo nodded and asked, "Is there any such item for sale at the banquet?"

"Of course not, no nobleman would do business at a banquet in his mansion. Sanjes shook his head, then explained, "However, according to the information I have received, Sir Phidia, the largest collector of antiquities in the Kingdom of England, will be attending this banquet, and if you want to collect such antiquities, you may be able to get more ways to trade antiquities by getting acquainted with Sir Phidia." ”

"Sir Fidia?" Leo sensed that the name was somewhat familiar, and carefully recalled, "Are you talking about Fidia Loren?"

Sanjes confirmed: "Yes, Sir Fidia Rolland. ”

After hearing this, Leo was silent for a while, and then said, "You can help me prepare a set of clothes for tonight's banquet." ”

"Yes, sir. Sanjes nodded, but did not leave, but hesitated for a moment, and then asked, "Sir, do you need some etiquette guidance?"

Leo was stunned for a moment, and quickly understood what Sanjes was worried about, so he smiled, shook his head and said: "No, although I am from a civilian background, I also learned a little etiquette by the way when I studied with the old man Rembrandt, you can rest assured, I will not make any embarrassing moves at the banquet." ”

When Sanjes heard this, he didn't say anything more, and after saluting, he turned and retreated.

After Sanjes left, Leo returned his attention to the table, but instead of focusing as much as he had just done, he had divided a portion of the information reminiscing about the Phidia Loren he had just mentioned.

Leo had heard of the name of Fidia Loren before, but it was derived from memories of the past, and it seemed that Fidia Loren had done some charity in Leo's hometown in the past, and Leo had also benefited from it.

It's just that what really made Leo remember the name Fidia Loren was actually the Mark of Rembrandt and the Netweaver.

When Leo was studying with Rembrandt, he saw a personal letter to Rembrandt in a book, the main content of this letter was a discussion of the study of ancient prehistoric civilizations, which was a purely academic discussion, and the letter was signed by Fidia Loren, and there were also letters and personal letters from the Kingdom of England.

However, just a scholar of ancient civilizations does not make Leo care too much about this person, what really makes Leo remember this person is that there is a small badge at the end of this letter, and according to Leo's understanding, only members of the Persona Society have such a badge, and according to the pattern structure on the badge, it is certain that this Phia Loren's status in the Persona Society is equivalent to that of Old Man Rembrandt, and he is at the level of a great elder.

However, at that time, Leo was all focused on his studies and was not very interested in the Persona Society, so he did not pay attention to this matter anymore, nor did he ask the old man Rembrandt about this fellow of the Persona Society, but even if he asked, the old man Rembrandt probably would not answer.

After that, he obtained the Webweaver's Mark, and from the Seal, he obtained a large amount of knowledge and memories accumulated by the Webweaver over the past countless years, and this huge knowledge and memory made him have to spend a lot of time sorting it out, and in these days in Port Set, the most he has done is to organize the knowledge in his head, except for studying witchcraft.

As he sorted through his memories, he discovered many interesting things in the past that he had not been able to perceive because of his knowledge, and among these things, the matter about Fidia Loren was definitely one of the most peculiar.

This incident comes from the memory of the webweaver, and it is also the deepest memory of the webweaver, in this memory, Phoedia Loren once died, and was taken away by the webweaver, and also directly saw the god of death Gain, but the strange thing is that Fidia Loren was resurrected after that, and even the webweaver did not know how Fredia Loren was resurrected, and the most important point is that Fidia Loren's soul has been sent to the land of eternal death, where even the soul of the gods cannot return to the real world.

The situation of Fidia Loren made Leo think of himself instantly, no matter how you look at the two situations, the same person is dead, the same is resurrected, if you extrapolate according to this, then the current Fidia Loren is definitely not the real Fidia Loren, but another soul like Leo.

At that time, Leo had thought about finding a chance to meet this Fidia Loren, and now the appearance of this invitation just saved him a lot of trouble.

It's just that if he goes to a banquet like this, unless he is forced to break in, otherwise, it will be difficult to see Phoedia Loren in his identity as a commoner nouveau riche, because although the other party's identity is only a knight, he is a lifelong professor of the Royal Academy, and his status is not worse than that of a duke-level nobleman, and it is impossible for people with this status to be approached casually.

So, Leo thought he might have to make a decoy, one that would be enough to draw Fidia Loren in.

Thinking of this, Leo stopped his sorcery research, pulled out a piece of ordinary vellum paper from the cabinet next to his desk, and then took a pen and quickly wrote some words on the paper.

Although the meaning of these words is simple, it is nothing more than admiration for the knowledge of Fidia Loren, and curiosity about Fidia Loren's collection, but the text that records this content is not simple, a few sentences are in seven different ancient languages, including Gamore, unless people are very familiar with the ancient language, otherwise, no one will be able to read the meaning of this sentence.

In addition to the seven ancient languages above the main sentence, under the signature, there is also a line of poetry written in the language of Wangcheng, which was written by a very famous poet in the world of Veron, and the content is to explore the boundary between life and death, which is a small test.

Once it was written, Leo placed it in an envelope, sealed it with a wax seal, and waited for the evening banquet to arrive.

At night, the commercial district is deserted because of the closure of the shops, but only in the area near the common area, but in the area near the garden district, which is very lively, and all the parties here are open, and the rich and noble from the garden district linger here.

It's just that today, the most lively part of the city after dark, seems to be a lot more deserted, and some of the big donors did not come here before, as if the rich and nobles in the whole city have become moral models overnight.

Those who are in the small party are not well-informed and don't understand what is going on, so there is some worry and trepidation, but for those with background, there is something special tonight, and tomorrow everything will be back to normal, so there is no need to worry about anything.

The banquet held in the Marquis Roosevelt's mansion was an important event for the magnates and wealthy people in Port Sète, even though most of the Roosevelt family's property has now been transferred to the Kingdom of America, but the Roosevelt family still has considerable influence in the Kingdom of England, and being invited to the banquet in the Marquis Roosevelt's mansion is a status symbol in itself.

For those who didn't get an invitation, staying at home was the best option, or at least it would give the illusion that he was also at the party, and only the ignorant would run to the commercial district tonight to have fun, because in doing so would be to put themselves outside the power circle of Port Set.

A luxurious carriage drawn by four purebred scaly horses emerged from an alley, and the coachman deftly controlled the carriage to weave through the crowd of the avenue, passing in front of the brightly lit gates of the commercial district, and speeding in the direction of the Marquis Roosevelt's mansion.

The appearance of this carriage was strange to many people who were familiar with the streets of Port Set, and it was clear to those who were familiar with the streets of Port Set, that the alley from which the carriage drove out led to a place that was the commercial area close to the civilian area, which divided the whole Port of Set into a high residential area and a low residential area, and this area was obviously also divided into a lower residential area.

Although there are many shopping malls and shops in that commercial area, and there are some wealthy merchants living there, the main consumers there are ordinary people, and the operators of shopping malls and shops are also some inferior merchants, so it is almost impossible for people living in that area to have any big names.

But the fact that the people who lived in that part of the city could afford to sit in such a luxurious carriage and get an invitation to the banquet of Marquis Roosevelt made some people who were interested in it begin to wonder and sent someone to investigate the matter.

For some people and forces, the magnates on the surface of Port Set are not terrible, because their every move is watched, and they have enough time to deal with any movement, but those hidden magnates are what they are worried about, and they don't want to be implicated in the power vortex that is enough to break their bones one day because of an excesses by their own subordinates.

Although the invitation card to the Marquis Roosevelt's palace was not public, it was still possible to get it if some people wanted to get it, and among the invitations, an address living in a low-class business district, an unfamiliar name, stood out in front of a bunch of eye-catching names, and all the people who investigated the origin of the carriage owner hardly spent much effort to find out the results.

An upstart with a mysterious origin, this is the first impression of all those who see the information about Leo Dodd for the first time, but as they carefully examine every piece of information, see Leo Dodd's network, and see that Leo Dodd is still safe and sound after hiring the Duke of Buckingham to resign as a butler, they have already listed Leo as a hidden predator that cannot be provoked, and distribute the relevant information to their subordinates, lest their subordinates inadvertently bump into this predator and cause themselves unsolvable trouble.
