A peerless figure slowly walked in, and instantly grasped the eyes of everyone present.

Ling was wearing a gorgeous cheongsam as usual today, with a black tunic and high-forked cheongsam inlaid with a faint gold edge, and a white cloud dragon pattern surrounded the whole body, adding a bit of nobility. The hair like a dark night was coiled up, and a jade phoenix hairpin was inserted diagonally.

Unfolded the folding fan in his hand casually, revealing the elegant ink and blue on it, blocking the fan in front of his mouth, and laughed lightly, "The head of the Kumo family is not a way to be a guest." ”

Kuma's eyes froze slightly, and he only stayed on Suzu's beautiful figure for a moment, then looked at a figure behind her.

With the same black hair and black eyes as Suzu, but wearing a black power suit, a Chinese character face, about thirty years old, ordinary appearance, and expressionless face. Hanging his hands like a slave, he stood respectfully behind her.

He looks like an ordinary servant on the outside, but the awe-inspiring momentum that erupts from the air confronts Kuma without falling behind.

Although he had known the mysterious origin of this girl named Suzu, it was still beyond his expectations to take out a strong knight as a slave.

Even if he used the secret agents buried in the military region to find out the news, he only knew that she was a guest personally invited by the military commander, and any other information about her was absolutely blocked.

After taking a deep look at Suzu, Kumo suddenly laughed, clapped his hands casually, and a team of servants immediately rushed in from outside, holding all kinds of exquisite gifts in their hands.

"I heard that there is a great young genius in Julu City, I specially prepared some gifts, I hope you don't dislike it. ”

Kuma's momentum suddenly retracted, and he said softly to Green, as if nothing had happened just now.

Green casually glanced at all of them, all of them were valuable gifts, nodded to the hotel waiter on the side, and immediately someone stepped forward to carefully put away all the gifts.

Since the other party was coming at him, Green was not to be outdone, and waved his right hand in an inviting gesture.

"Since the head of the Kumo family is here, then please. ”

"Then there's no need, I'm just stopping by today, and I'll invite you to Morley's house for a good reception when I have time another day." Kuma faintly refused, turned around and walked outside.

As he passed by Suzu, he slowed down and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "Julu City is not the place where a noble princess like you should come. “

The corners of the bell mouth bent a slight arc, and said with a light smile: "The military region is not a place where Your Excellency should stretch out his hand." “

"Hmph. “

Kuruma snorted coldly and walked straight towards the door, where a luxurious black and gold carriage was already waiting at the door.

At this time, the atmosphere in the hall recovered, and everyone began to talk and laugh again.

"Thank you. “

Green politely nodded to the bell in thanks, although Kuruma should not have dared to do it in front of the city's magnates just now, but it always damaged the momentum of the hotel.

"After all, there are concubines in this industry, so how can they be indifferent. “

The corners of Suzu's eyebrows were slightly raised, and she said unceremoniously.

"......Who is this?" Green looked behind Suzu, his gaze falling on the great knight.

Suzu didn't even look back, and casually introduced: "This is a slave in the family, named Eighteen." “

The man, known as Eighteen, heard Suzu introduce himself, and bowed to Green like an ordinary slave, and then continued to stand behind Suzu expressionlessly, bowing his head and eyes, and the momentum of the great knight had been retracted long after Kuma left, and it looked inconspicuous at the moment.

Seeing this scene, Green's heart sank, and he didn't ask any more questions, but just nodded slightly and saluted Eighteen.

Reaching out and summoning one of his attendants, he brought a glass of wine to Suzu and Poru, and then took one himself.

"Miss Suzu, I salute you with this cup. “

Green raised his glass, as did Boru, and the three of them clinked their glasses lightly and drank each with a smile.

Although she doesn't know Suzu's identity and purpose, she is not an enemy after all.

A few people chatted casually about some interesting things, and occasionally some people wanted to come up and talk to the bell but were mercilessly blocked by the eighteen behind them.

"I've been in Julu City for so long, and I haven't tasted the local food properly, so the concubine is rude. “

Drinking the wine in his hand, Suzu casually lifted the wine glass, and Eighteen immediately took the empty wine glass. Suzu smiled apologetically and turned to walk towards the table.

"This Miss Suzu seems to value you very much. Poru said meaningfully to Green.

However, Green just shook his head, a person who can take a big knight as a servant, and there seems to be a huge family behind him, what will he value......

Although the other party attaches great importance to his performance, he is not actually qualified to have an equal relationship with the other party.

After Suzu left, many people gathered around to talk to Green and Poru, and Poru also introduced some important people to Green as he did just now.

"This is Doug, a steel giant, and he has a monopoly on half of the steel business in the county. Poru introduced a capable man to Green.

"I remember that Grimm didn't find a large iron-rich ore mine in your territory, maybe you can cooperate with Doug. “

Poru said intentionally or unintentionally.

A glint flashed in the eyes of the man named Doug, who seemed to be interested in asking Green about the iron ore.

Green also gave him a detailed introduction to the situation and location of the iron mines in the territory, and after some conversation, the two left each other's contact information.

"In that case, we are looking forward to our next cooperation. “

Doug picked up his glass and touched it with Green, took a shallow sip before indicating that he had left beforehand.

"Uncle Poru, you have a heart. After Doug left, Green nodded in thanks to Pollus.

Boru accepted it calmly, it was just a casual move, but it was not a big help to the Green family, and it was very cost-effective to sell a favor for nothing.

Next, the two of them took some food and ate it while strolling, and Poru continued to brief Green on the situation of the various forces in the city.

"The Chamber of Commerce is the weakest in Julu City, because the three of us have barely managed to recruit a great knight, or a beginner great knight who can no longer progress when his potential is exhausted. In this regard, Poru is very comfortable acknowledging the current weak position of the Chamber of Commerce.

"The aristocratic forces led by Kuma have been squeezing the Chamber of Commerce, and most of the city hall is their people, so it is difficult for us to resist. And the other party is a big family that has been inherited for a long time, and there are many secret methods, no matter what, they can cultivate a big knight to suppress the formation. And although we have acquired a lot of resources, we have never been able to cultivate our own great knights. Even good seedlings are quickly poached. “

Green just listened silently, although he didn't meet Poru much, but the other party had already grasped his character, and being honest with him would be more appealing.

"If I advance to the Great Knight, I will definitely fully support the Firm. “

Green solemnly made a promise to Boru.

Poru smiled and nodded, "You don't have to worry, we're not alone, we have an important guest tonight, and he will be our ally." “

Poru sold a pass and didn't tell Green who the other party was.

It wasn't until the third round of wine that everyone in the hall had almost eaten the food, and a bulletin suddenly sounded.

"Earl Blue Whale has arrived. “

Green glanced at Poru, who smiled and nodded.

Immediately, an older man walked in under the leadership of several waiters, his beard was a little gray, but it was difficult to hide the light in his eyes, he was not tall, but his shoulders were extremely open, and he showed excellent etiquette between walking, and everyone seemed to know him, and rows of eyes turned to look at him.

Seeing him from afar, Poru opened his arms to greet him, and the two hugged intimately.

"Old friend, it's been a long time. “

"yes, you weren't that fat the last time we met. “

After a few words of conversation, Poru turned to his side and introduced him to Green.

Green bowed slightly and saluted him, and the momentum that emanated from the other party was also a big knight, and Green did not hesitate to express his respect for the strong.

"Count Blue Whale is the patriarch of the Blue Whale family and the leader of the aristocratic forces in Julu City that oppose the Morley family. The firm has been able to hold on to until now thanks to his strong support. Poru brought him a glass of wine.

Although the Earl of Blue Whale is a little older, he is still personable, and a wrinkle at the corner of his eye makes him full of mature charm.

"It's just a matter of helping each other, Poru, you don't have to be humble, the firm also shares a lot of pressure for us. The Earl of Blue Whale gently raised his glass and touched it.

Then he turned to look at Green and nodded appreciatively. "You did a great job against Kuma, but unfortunately I didn't get to see it in person. However, thanks to this, the momentum of the Morry's expansion was temporarily contained. “

Green nodded modestly and struck up a conversation with him.

The Blue Whale family is also an old family in Julu City, with a deep heritage and a wide range of connections, even the Morley family has nothing to do with him.

The three of them talked for a long time and made a lot of agreements.

When it was getting late, the orchestra on the stage suddenly changed its tune and began to play cheerful dance music. The people in the center of the hall were also guided out of the way, clearing the venue.

"That's it, it's dance time. “

Poru and Earl Blue Whale smiled, and each picked a female companion and slowly jumped up in the field.

Green also breathed a sigh of relief, put his glass down, and began to look for Fran.

"Green, are you looking for a dance partner?"

Green turned around and saw Suzu standing behind him, looking him up and down with beautiful eyes.

"Why don't you dance with me?" Suzu chuckled and invited him.

"I'm sorry, Miss Suzu, I already have a dance partner. By this time, Green had seen Fran in the corner from behind the bell.

After Green refused Suzu's invitation, he was just about to leave when he felt a wave of murderous intent erupt from the servant-like eighteen behind her, instantly freezing his heart.

Suzu's expression instantly turned cold, and he glanced sideways at Eighteen, and he immediately lowered his head in panic and withdrew his killing intent, and Green recovered.

"I'm sorry, the house slave is not well trained, I'll punish him later. Suzu said lightly to Green.

Green trembled when he saw Eighteen, and he couldn't say anything, nodded casually, and walked away quickly, coming to Fran's face.

"This beautiful young lady, I wonder if you can dance with me?" Green bent down and held out his hand to Fran.

Duncan on the side smiled, patted Fran on the shoulder and said, "Fran will be handed over to you, and I should also go out to play." “

Fran was also well-dressed today, beautiful and incomprehensible, with a touch of blush on her face, she reached out and put her hand on Green's hand, and walked onto the dance floor with Green.

"I'm sorry, there are a lot of things going on today, so I came here so late. The two of them slowly rotated in the middle of the dance floor.

Fran gently leaned her body against Green, "It's okay, it's important, don't worry about me." “

At this moment, Green also left other things behind, staring at Fran in front of him, and the two jumped happily to the beat as if they had been tacitly understanding for many years.
