Sunday afternoon, Queens, inside the Earl Hall's villa.

"Please follow me, Master Grandin."

The assistant butler respectfully led the way in front.

Dressed in a pure black tuxedo and carrying a cane, Grandin followed with pride. Behind him, there was a manservant who helped him with gifts and bronze mirrors.

In the hallway, the maids who stood next to him and bowed their heads would always sneak a few glances at him.

"The butler calls me Young Master...... Earl Hall wants to communicate with me with the same attitude as he treats his nephews? My dear brother, did Alfred say anything in his letter home? ”

Every step Grandin took seemed to have been measured, and the temperament of a soldier came to his face.

He is cold on the surface, but inside he is constantly thinking:

"Earl Hall has sent a signal of closeness, so I also need to change my behavior and not appear too rigid and distant."

His steps paused, and his movements switched naturally.

He took off the top hat and held it on his chest, his steps became soothed, and he walked with confidence and chic.

The gazes that were looking at him burned a little hotter.

"Young Master Grandin, please come in, the head of the family will come over later."

The assistant butler opened the carved wooden door of the small reception room and bent down to let Grandin in.

Grandin handed his top hat and cane to the manservant behind him, and took back from him the bronze mirror wrapped in vellum.

Then he stepped into the small reception room.

The reception room is elegantly furnished, with a set of high sofas leaning against the window around a tea table. The entire glass curtain wall lets in sunlight throughout the room.

Grandin sat on the couch.

Soon a maid came in and offered black tea and refreshments, and the three-story tower of dim sum was quite impressive.

After the maid had prepared everything, Count Hall had also stepped on time to come here.

"Hello, Holmer......"

Grandin stood up and shook hands, but Earl Hall hurried up and hugged him warmly.

"Thank you for saving my son on the battlefield!"

Earl Hall had two moustaches, the nasolabial folds on his face were obvious, he was wearing a shirt and waistcoat, and his belly was slightly bulging.

He looked at Grandin a few more times, and applauded:

"Good lad! The future of the kingdom needs young people like you. ”

His broad hand slapped Grandin on the back a few times, and his blue eyes seemed to be looking at his younger self.

"Alas, in such a relaxed atmosphere, there is no way to discuss serious politics, philosophy, and history......"

Grandin took off his tuxedo formal and handed it to the maid. I feel that my preparation in advance has been useless.

The Earl of Hall seemed to be interested in Byron's life, so Grandin acted as a tour guide. Based on his own experience, he introduced the Earl of Hall to the customs of West Bairan.

Since it is based on my own life experience. Then even if he saves a lot of daily activities such as: 'secret infiltration', 'fighting behind enemy lines', 'lining up and plating' and so on. However, the riots and sieges of otherworldly species, which are unique to Byron, cannot be omitted.

If this part is omitted, he can only talk about the comparison of the soil quality differences between Byron and Rune.

Earl Hall was stunned when he heard this, and the white porcelain teacup inlaid with gold thread was raised to his mouth for a long time and did not move.

"Saying this, Byron is full of danger and ...... Death. ”

These lost lives were just a string of numbers on the reports he came into contact with. The impression left was far less profound than Grandin's own description.

And his son rarely sent letters back, which left him with little understanding of Byron's real life.

Grandin also took this opportunity to rely on the ability of the 'machine' to re-sort out his past life from the perspective of a bystander.

In the end, he sighed. It is believed that Grandin Ode has been able to hold out until he crosses by himself in the face of so many dangers, and he has already been favored by the Seven Gods.

But hearing Count Hall's evaluation, he still explained objectively:

"Mr. Earl, as a soldier, it is indeed not peaceful in the colony. But from the point of view of a merchant, that land is full of wealth...... Danger and opportunity always go hand in hand. ”

Indeed, the kingdom has made up its mind to invest more in Byron...... At the very least, the balance of power must be maintained......"

"Very good, I reviewed this period of current affairs this morning."

Grandin, in his own power, shifted the conversation to familiar territory.

They drank black tea and talked about the political situation. The final common conclusion is:

If the Kingdom of Rune wants to develop under the watchful eye of many countries, it is necessary to grab more wealth from the colonies to transfuse its own blood.

Before the atmosphere became more serious and deep, the two changed the subject.

As a big banker, Earl Hall prefers to talk about the financial problems he encounters.

And Grandin stood on the shoulders of the giant, almost answering his doubts.

For a while, the two talked happily. Earl Hall did not despise the other party because he was young.

His status has given him access to some unknown insider information.

For example, the young man in front of him is a night watchman who belongs to the goddess.

For example, the pyramid scheme that has been called the 'Euclidean scheme' by the Department of Finance. and Grandin himself, who found a loophole in the law and 'invented' this deception.

The young man in front of him is undoubtedly the best of all the young people in the kingdom.

"Gran, your 'experiment' is great, it's very creative. When I was younger, I was as imaginative as you......

Ever since I first received 60 gold pounds for 10 pounds in a commercial activity, I was convinced that commerce would replace land as the next lifeblood of the nobility. ”

Count Hall shook his head and sighed:

"It's a pity that there are too few people who think the same way as me, and they still hold on to the same old thing. Look no further than the Republic of Antis! The line between aristocrats and wealthy merchants has become increasingly blurred. ”

"The times are advancing, and if you don't want to change, you will be eliminated."

Grandin commented with a relaxed expression as he took about a bite of a muffin from the snack tower.

His assessment is not subtle, and it can even be said to be very bold.

But Earl Hall admired his daring style.

Thanks to the Goddess, the young man who 'invented' this terrible trick was both a soldier and a nobleman, and he must have been the most staunch patriot.

The scam ended up as an 'experiment'.

What the Department of Finance needs to do now is to amend the law and close the loopholes before the criminals learn about this 'experiment'.

But how to change the law has been a week of squabbling within the Financial Services Department. No decision has yet been made on whether it will be submitted to the House of Lords for discussion.

Thinking of the inaction of the Department of Finance, Earl Hall was also full of anger:

"The director of the financial department should really kowtow to you!"

"Aha, you're right, Mr. Earl."

Grandin agreed in his heart, but on the surface he looked calm and generous:

"Mr. Earl. The financial industry is a new industry, and the old laws are not fully suited to it.

I would be happy to contribute to the improvement of the Kingdom's laws. I believe that through this incident, the gentlemen of the Department of Finance will pay more attention to private fundraising in the future. ”

He picked up the teacup and took a sip of the clear black tea, which was mellow in his mouth, and tasted better than the Marquis black tea. Well, so that's what 'King's Black Tea'?
