Chapter 139: The Emperor's New Clothes
"Reagan, I'm going to go out, and you'll take care of Nafu's affairs." Claire commanded.
"Understood, young master!"
"Oh yes, if something goes wrong with Isaac's airship and comes to me, then let him wait for me to come back, and I should be back in no more than a week."
"Understood!" Reagan kept nodding.
"And ...... You also have to keep an eye on the metallurgical town, the tracks over there are almost laid, and the metal ingots are also going to be transported to Nafu City, so don't make any trouble. ”
"Understood!"
Claire held her chin and thought for a while, and finally said: "That's probably it, I'm still very relieved that you do things, it's that now that Nafu City has developed, there are a few administrative staff, recruit more people when you have time, remember to screen good people, don't put some scum in." ”
"Understood!" Reagan had already taken out a pen and paper and recorded it.
"Alright, it's okay."
"Young Master!" Reagan stopped Claire, who was about to leave the house, and asked, "Where are you going this time?" ”
Claire didn't look back, just raised her hand above her head and waved her hand gently, "Wang Du!" ”
……
Outside the tulip shop, Claire parked the wolf king at the door and smashed her mouth, she is now a field viscount with an annual income of several million, and the cards are a little small, and she has to ride her own mount to the royal capital.
As soon as she entered, Claire was recognized by the waiter who greeted her at the door and ushered him to the lounge at the back of the store.
Shane is not in the store now, according to the clerk, he was called home by his father, and he should be back in a while.
After the clerk brought Claire a drink, she went back to the front store to continue working, during which the tulip shop had a lot of traffic, much more than the last time she came, and it seemed that Shane had put a lot of effort into it.
Claire didn't have to wait long before Shane pushed the door open and walked in.
"Why did you come to the royal capital?"
"What? Can't I stop by my shop yet? Claire quipped.
"Not really." Shane sat down on the couch and let out a deep sigh as he relaxed.
"If I had known you were coming, I would have sent someone to pick you up."
"No, I don't like the sight of being carried around." Claire hurriedly waved her hand, "What did your father do with you?" ”
"It's nothing, just ask me what business I've been doing lately, and ask about you."
"You told him everything?"
"I said something selectively, but the interesting thing is that just after the servant came to give me the news of your coming to the royal capital, my father asked me to come, otherwise, according to the old habit, I would have to talk about me for an hour or two."
Claire nodded, she was noticed when she was noticed, and she didn't hide it anyway.
"Well, then why do you suddenly want to come to the king? I've only been back from Nafu for a few days. ”
"Make money." Claire smiled, he already knew what Shane's favorite words were.
Sure enough, as soon as these words came out, Shane's eyes instantly burst into golden light, and the whole person became excited, losing the sense of decadence just now.
grabbed Claire's sleeve and hurriedly asked, "What kind of money-making opportunity?" ”
"I've already given you a chance." Claire smiled mysteriously.
Shane was a little confused, "Huh? ”
Claire directly shifted the topic, "Is Lady Sophia still in the royal capital?" ”
Sophia, as the head of the August family, runs around the country many times, and it is normal not to be in the royal capital.
"You're looking for her? She should still be in the royal capital now. By the way, the last time I visited her, she told me that I must thank you in person if I have the opportunity. ”
Claire laughed, "That's not right, I'm free now, you can help me make an appointment with her, and I'm going to accept her thanks in person." ”
"Are you in such a hurry?" Sean glanced at the clock in the break room, planning the time in his mind.
"It's a ...... to make money."
"Okay!" Shane immediately stood up, "I'm going to send someone to her mansion to deliver the invitation." ”
……
In less than half an hour, Sophia's side passed the location and time of the meeting, the same place as the last time we met, and the time was about the same.
Shane didn't go with him this time, in his words: he can't have a pastime for this blessing, so let Claire enjoy it alone.
With a gentlemanly demeanor, Claire arrived at the door of the restaurant more than ten minutes early, but as soon as she got closer, she felt several extraordinary breaths scanning over her body, Claire only paused slightly, and then pushed the door and walked into the restaurant.
Those who glanced at their spiritual power were probably Sophia's guards hiding in the shadows, but they didn't notice it when they were intermediate mages before.
As before, there is no one in it, and it should be contracted by Sophia again, but this is someone's restaurant, and it can't be said to be a bag, it can only be said to be temporarily closed.
As soon as she entered the door, Claire's attention was attracted by a beautiful back, Claire's eyes opened slightly, this Sophia actually came faster than herself.
Continue to walk forward, and when she walked in front of Sophia, Claire slowly stopped, bowed slightly, and said, "Mrs. Sophia, Gui'an!" ”
But as soon as she turned over, Claire was attracted by Sophia's dress, wearing a pure white sundress, with a large area of snow white on her back and arms, giving people a cold and glamorous temperament, which was completely different from the last time she saw it.
It's hard not to be drawn to Claire's gaze...... The body that yawned slightly was not yet straightened.
"Is it pretty?" Sophia dragged her chin and winked mischievously at Claire, "I see that you don't like the previous style very much, and I changed this outfit for you." ”
Hearing Sophia's words, Claire came back to her senses, pursed her lips and said, "What kind of clothes Madame wears is beautiful." ”
"Harm." Sophia pretended to sigh, "I, I don't like you to say such things, so official, does the relationship between the two of us still need to be so polite?" ”
As if she remembered something, Sophia suddenly said, "Why don't you tell me what kind of clothes you like, I'll definitely wear them for you next time." ”
Claire smiled slightly: "The emperor's new clothes." ”
Sophia was a little dazed and asked back, "What new clothes?" ”
"It's fine." Claire sat down with a smile, his waist had erected a lot since he had four mines in the family, and he would definitely not say such a thing before he had changed.
Although Sophia had some doubts in her heart, she still didn't plan to break the casserole and ask to the end.
The first thing Claire said when she sat down was, "How much money does Madame Nightmare Flower make?" ”
He learned from Shane that Sophia had definitely made money, and he mentioned this matter just to use it as an excuse to pinch the other party, after all, he proposed the idea.
Sophia's expression changed to a sad face, and she cried: "I didn't make any money, and then His Majesty the King ordered me to take back those nightmare flowers." People are miserable......"
Claire: "......" doesn't even have this bit of integrity, so we can't talk about it.
Claire didn't believe a word about Sophia's words, according to his approximate estimates, Sophia earned nearly 100 million gold coins that time.
Claire then stood up and said, "I suddenly remembered that the magic lamp in my house has not been turned off, and I want to go back and say goodbye!" ”
"Don't go!" Sophia took Claire's hand, "People are honest with you, it's a small profit, but it's also thanks to you." ”
Claire sat back in her chair, rubbing her fingers against the rim of the goblet, thinking about how to talk to Sophia, this girl is not a good person, and she will lie to herself if she can't say it.
