Time flickered, and half a month slipped away.

Lady Billie is a veritable aristocratic lady living in the imperial capital. Her husband died early, and she became a widow and received a large inheritance.

During the day, when Mrs. Billie was at home, she would receive a large pile of letters, which the butler would carry and personally present, and could fill almost the entire large table.

Half of these letters are about the family estate. The family is big, and there are naturally many affairs, and all these problems need to be dealt with by Mrs. Billie herself, and the policy should be pointed out.

The remaining half of the letters, all from Lady Billie's admirers, were filled with bold or subtle confessions.

Mrs. Billie is nearly thirty years old, has never given birth to a child, and still maintains the slenderness of her youth. She is white and beautiful, has a good figure, and has a promising business left by her husband, so there are naturally many suitors.

However, Mrs. Billie is shrewd and capable, and manages the family business in an orderly manner, white, rich, and beautiful, and has a very high vision.

is so high that he has been picking for two years, and he has not picked a man he likes, so he remarries and spends his life together.

As a fashionable woman who is at the forefront of her time, Mrs. Billie dresses up every time she goes out, such as attending a gala tonight.

It's human nature to love beauty, and Lady Billie is no exception.

She sat in front of the bronze mirror, applied a little powder, and when she drew her eyebrows, she asked, "Mr. Butler, did you buy the perfume I ordered from you a few days ago?"

"Got it, Lady Billie. The perfume is in the drawer of the dressing table. ”

The old butler said with a smile on his face: "At that time, I queued up in the perfume workshop for most of the day to buy such a small bottle. Although this perfume is very expensive, it is a sought-after commodity, and there are too many people who buy it. ”

After a pause, the old butler smiled and said, "When I was buying perfume, I also met your friend Mrs. Larry. She didn't buy the perfume, and complained like I did for a while. ”

Mrs. Billie listened to the old butler's narration sentence by sentence, and smiled: "I suppose she must have bought the perfume in your hand, right?"

The old butler nodded when he heard this: "I also saw it at the time." However, I only bought one bottle of perfume, so I had to pretend that I didn't understand what she meant, and I had a few words with her, and she asked me to say hello to you. ”

"Lady Larry...... I've been too busy lately, and I haven't seen her for more than half a month. I'll see her at the prom. ”

Mrs. Billie sighed, opened the second drawer, and sure enough, she saw a perfume bottle.

The perfume bottle is small, made of glazed firing, and has a delicate workmanship. Not to mention the dark red perfume inside, I'm afraid it's a small bottle, and it's worth several gold coins.

Uncorked the bottle, Mrs. Billie poured out a little perfume into her hand and rubbed it twice.

A faint violet fragrance suddenly emanated, filling the house.

"The fragrance is not bad, strong but not greasy, and the effect is much better than the sachet. ”

Mrs. Billie was satisfied.

She smeared a little perfume on her body and stood in front of the old butler and spun around twice, "How is it?"

"You're going to be the center of attention at tonight's prom!"

The old butler exclaimed sincerely.

"This perfume works so well, no wonder it sells so well. Which family invented the perfume?" asked Lady Billie, smiling.

"I've investigated, and it's produced by a family called Rest. The old butler said truthfully.

"The Lester family?"

Lady Billie's eyes showed a hint of doubt: "The Lester family, the name of this family is so unfamiliar......"

Lady Billie thought about it carefully, but she couldn't remember, she didn't think about it anymore, but asked, "The Lester family should be a small family that has risen in the imperial capital, right?"

"Not really, Lady Billie. ”

The old butler shook his head and explained: "The Lester family, more than a hundred years ago, started by operating Sunset Ale and made some money, and almost squeezed into the upper elite class of the imperial capital. ”

Later, new varieties of ale wine with better taste appeared, and the Lester family did not manage it properly, and the Lester family declined, gradually becoming obscure and almost disappearing. ”

After a pause, the old butler continued: "But recently, the name of the Lester family has reappeared in the celebrity circle of the imperial capital. ”

"In case you didn't know, the Lester family also runs a beer business in addition to their current perfumes. I heard that not long ago, His Majesty Charles IX tasted beer, and he was full of praise and personally listed beer as the imperial wine. Half a month later, at the birthday party, beer will definitely make a shining appearance. ”

"Oh, I can't imagine that such an interesting thing happened in the imperial capital recently. ”

Mrs. Billie said with interest: "Historically, many famous families have disappeared after generations. This Lester family does not seem to belong to this list. ”

"Wait a minute, you will send a letter to the person in charge of the Lester family in the imperial capital. Let's just say that I am interested in working with the Lester family to start a perfume business together. ”

The old butler was surprised and said, "Lady Billie, are we too arbitrary in doing this? We don't know much about the Lester family, and this perfume has only just appeared, and has not been really tested by the market." ”

"If after a few days, this perfume suddenly has some allergic problems and so on...... We're going to lose money too. ”

As for the old butler's concern, Mrs. Billie shook her head with a smile: "There are some things that you have to do quickly. When I finished my hand, I couldn't even drink a sip of soup. As for the risks...... Which industry is not risky?"

"Understood, Lady Billie. I'll prepare a message tomorrow and send it to the Rest family in person. The old butler nodded.

......

At the same time, the imperial capital aristocratic district, inside the mansion of the Lester family.

The lights are on.

In the study, William was looking at the forms.

These forms were all sent by the merchants of the Monro family, the perfume partners sent by Lei Ao, and sent by Kodoff.

The table is very neatly made, and the content on it is clear at a glance, recording the establishment of perfume workshops, the acquisition of perfume raw materials, the research and development of perfumes, the sales of perfumes and so on in the past half a month.

Looking at the tables one by one, William also had a general impression in his heart.

In general, everything is moving in a good direction.

The perfume was developed, and it was sold for just three days, and it successfully earned back the first pot of gold.

Although there are not many gold coins, the potential is endless, and the amount of sales every day shows an upward trend. It's like a small seedling growing into a towering tree.

After reading the form for a while, there was a knock on the door, and it was Kova's voice: "Young Master William, I'm back! I heard Butler Crean say, Young Master, do you have something to look for me?"

When William heard this, a smile suddenly appeared on his face.

With his permission, Kova pushed the door open and sat down slightly nervously across from William's desk.

After pouring himself a cup of coffee and taking a sip to refresh himself, William put down the silver cup and said, "How are you studying at the Academy of Magic lately?"

"Everything was fine. It's just a girl who always bothers me with some questions that everyone with intellectual disabilities understands. I don't know if that's the reason, but there was a guy who looked at me very unpleasantly, and frequently went against me, saying that he wanted to have a magic duel with me. ”

"It seems that you probably have an extra rival for some reason. ”

A smile appeared on the corner of William's mouth and he reminded, "Do you remember, what did I tell you in the first place?"

Kova nodded repeatedly, "Yes, Master William." ”

William smiled and asked, "What should I do if others don't respect you?"

"I respect him!" Kova said categorically.

"What should I do if others don't respect you?"

"I respect him the same!"

"What if people still don't respect you?"

"I'll kill him!"
