The carriage of the Silver Wing Chamber of Commerce in Free City stopped outside the Westphalian Family Chamber of Commerce, and the guard who was in charge of welcoming them outside immediately stepped forward and respectfully opened the door. Lelouch stepped out of the carriage dressed in a white aristocratic dress, and Elisa, disguised as his assistant 'Celevi', immediately followed.

"Lord Lelouch, welcome to the dinner of the House of Westphalia tonight, please. ”

After marveling at the extraordinary temperament of this young Lelouch, the guards immediately began to do their duty to guide Lelouch into the main hall of the banquet.

Tonight is the thirtieth anniversary of the establishment of the branch of the Westphalian family in Free City, as one of the chambers of commerce that can occupy a seat in the Free City Council, the power of the Westphalian family cannot be underestimated, and the wife of the head of the Westphalian family at this celebration banquet, the Marquise Angelina, who was once the premier beauty of the Bellamar Kingdom, was also present, so that this time it should have been a private celebration banquet was full of guests, in terms of the number of guests who visited, it was probably no less than the banquet in the food club that Lelouch attended。

Alyssa, who was following behind Leluxiu, had a calm expression, in fact, Alyssa felt that sometimes she had to face it, and this in itself was not necessarily a bad thing, not to mention that she was able to survive the game between the gods and demons, which was already worth rejoicing.

"Haha~ Welcome to tonight's banquet Your Excellency Lelouch!"

Joseph, the president of the branch of the Westphalian Family Chamber of Commerce, smiled and greeted Lelouch when he saw him enter.

"Hello ~ Your Excellency President Joseph!"

"It's really a great honor for us to be here, so please enjoy the sumptuous dinner we have prepared tonight. ”

Joseph was very chatty with Lelouch in small talk, but during the chat, the little blessed President always looked at Helaivi on the side from time to time, and it seemed that Elisa, who had previously disguised herself as 'Xilaiwei', seemed to be a little strict in his heart during the negotiation process.

While President Joseph was talking with Lelouch, many of the businessmen who had been invited to attend also looked at the two of them from time to time. To be so warmly received by Joseph, the branch president of the Westphalian family's Chamber of Commerce, this young man's background is really not small.

A sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy has taken root in a free city in a short period of time. The curiosities he brought with him have recently become a trend in the Free City. In particular, some rare medicinal materials and refined ores have caused many pharmacists and craftsmen who want to make a name for themselves almost to break their heads, especially after a master blacksmith in the Free City recently created a quasi-legendary armor using materials brought by Lelouch and sold it for a whopping 47 million rien at the auction house of Lord Lawrence, one of the Big Three.

If there is one reason why these things brought by Lelouch are so valuable, it is because both the medicinal materials and the ore far exceed the quality standards set by the Free City in terms of purity and quality. According to the blacksmith who created the quasi-legendary armor, the small piece of Mithril from Lelouch's hand was almost 90% pure. You must know that the highest refining purity of Mithril on the continent should be 84%, which is the limit!

The purer the ore, the less impurities it contains, and the weapons and armor you can create from it will be better!

Judging from the current momentum, the large and small chambers of commerce that have acquired the goods brought by Lelouch before will basically make a steady profit, and some chambers of commerce that have missed the opportunity are estimated to have regretted it now. It's just that there are some smart businessmen who have begun to slow down the flow of goods into the market, preparing to hoard these high-quality materials and wait for the price to be higher. It's just that some of the big chambers at the top of the Free City have a different view of Lelouch, and many merchants are secretly investigating the source of these materials than the precious materials in Lelouch's hands, and they want to directly monopolize the source of these materials than buy those merchants at the top from Lelouxiu.

"Then I won't bother you, Your Excellency, President. ”

After chatting for a while, Joseph had to entertain the other guests, and Lelouch was finally relieved to have a chance to observe the whole room. Since Joseph, as the president, is running around like an acolyte, then Alisa's mother, Lady Angelina, should be the protagonist of the evening. So far, Lelouch has not seen Lady Angelina, and Elisa has been watching around for a while to make sure that her mother has not yet arrived before she quiets down.

At this time, an attendant walked up to Lelouch with a tray full of fine wine: "Please enjoy Your Excellency!"

"Thank you. ”

After taking a glass of wine from above, Lelouch took a small sip, the whole banquet was in the form of a buffet, but there were not many people dining, at most some female guests could take some desserts and enjoy them a little.

It's just the same as the banquet in the Britannian Empire, the same dull and unbearable Cheng dù!

Lelouch sighed and prepared to find a quiet place to be alone for a while, until the protagonist of the banquet, Lady Angelina, appeared, but it seemed that some people didn't want Lelouch to leave so quickly and temporarily.

"It's really His Excellency Lelouch ~ long time no see!!"

A slightly familiar female voice rang out. Lelouch followed the voice and looked at a beautiful girl in a black dress not far away, who was elegantly approaching.

Lelouch thought for a moment and immediately recognized the other party's identity: "It's been a long time since I've seen Miss Ises Garrod." ”

"Just call me Aihis. ”

The girl who came over gracefully made a lady's salute in front of Lelouch and said with some affection, this beautiful girl is really the beloved daughter of Funk Garrod, the president of the Kinsol Chamber of Commerce. Lelouch had become acquainted with him on the airship before arriving in the Free City, and Lelouch, who had planned to accumulate as many contacts as possible in the Free City, also made a deal with the Kinsol Chamber of Commerce, and according to the news that came later, a batch of materials purchased by the Kinsol Chamber of Commerce was sold for a good price after changing hands.

Isis looked at Lelouch with a blush on her face like a little girl in love, and Ace's father, Fanke, was talking to Joseph for a while not far away, and when he saw his daughter talking to the mysterious young rich businessman, the steady middle-aged man was very interested in not bothering his daughter. Instead, he pretended not to see anything and stepped aside to talk to the other guests.

"I really want to thank you last time, Mr. Lelouch, for the goods were shipped back home and sold, but my father was happy for a while. Isis said with a smile, and at the same time looked at the girls who had not had time to invite Lelouch first.

"Haha~ Thanks to your father's care, Miss Aisi, I was finally able to raise enough funds to establish a chamber of commerce in the early stage. ”

Alyssa stood aside and looked at Lelouch who was joking with Isis, and had to say that her boss was really a magnet for young girls. The girl named Isis seemed to be really infatuated with Lelouch, and even a little enough to regard any woman around Lelouch as a competitor, if she hadn't first put her identity as just Lelouch's help, plus the current appearance of this Xilaiwei could only be regarded as average, otherwise Miss Isis probably wouldn't have ignored herself so quickly.

Isis also took a glass of wine from the attendant's hand: "That Mr. Lelouch, didn't Miss Buyani come to the banquet today?"

"Ling Mei is a little shy and doesn't like to attend this kind of banquet, and I can't force her to come, so I have to let her stay in the Chamber of Commerce. ”

"It seems that Miss Buyani is a talented and temperamental aristocratic lady, in fact, Mr. Lelouch, you can also let Miss Buyani have more contact with socializing, if you can, I would be willing to serve as a guide for Ling Mei. ”

In the face of Miss Ace's enthusiastic self-recommendation, Lelouch actually really wanted to tell her something, and the somewhat shy Miss Buyani was actually very shy. Buyani, who has been grounded for a long time, has long been bored to death, and this kind of banquet is better for the Crystal Dragon Girl to collect money or join in the fun than staying in the Chamber of Commerce.

Unbeknownst to him, Isis in order to be able to leave a concerned Buyani in front of Lelouch' Miyoshi's girl impression also picked out a lot of words about Buyani, but in order to prevent a large group of followers from waiting for the opportunity to seize power, Isis proposed that the two go to the viewing balcony to chat, for Lelouch he didn't want to be surrounded by a large group of girls every time he attended a banquet, when Isis proposed this proposal, he nodded, and slowly walked to the viewing balcony under the happy smile of Isis and the envious and jealous gaze of a group of young junjie. When Isis and Lelouch were gone, the other men and women had to look for another prey.

When he was about to push open the glass door of the viewing balcony, Lelouch suddenly noticed that somewhere on the side of the stone pillar, a relatively secluded small table, a personable-looking aristocratic young man was pestering a rather beautiful girl, saying that it was entanglement, because the girl who was accosted was obviously very unpleasant to the young man in front of her, no matter what the young man said, the girl was ignoring it and even turned her head to pretend to watch the band in the center of the banquet hall.

Looks like another man who has been stabbed by the thorns of roses.

Smiling slightly, Lelouch wanted to leave with Isis, but at this time, with the help of the black dragon's keen perception and observation, Lelouch suddenly found that the aristocratic young man took advantage of the moment when the girl looked away, and shook off some pink powder from his sleeve in her wine glass, and then the man raised the wine glass as if he was about to invite the girl to take one last sip.

Trample~

Lelouch had a gloomy face and stopped abruptly. (To be continued......)
