The invitation of the eldest prince Charles is equivalent to approving Ma Wei's statement, although he did not say it in person, but the opportunity needs to be grasped by himself, Ma Wei knows in his heart that the eldest prince is testing him.

If Prince Charles doesn't come to Nightingale Club today, Mavi will submit an application for membership, and ask Sir Sander to come up with a letter of recommendation, join the club first, and then contact Prince Charles.

But the eldest prince Charles not only came today, but also contacted him personally, and after some tugging, Ma Wei can be regarded as having achieved his goal.

There is no need to take out the letter of recommendation today.

Wait until the day after tomorrow to play golf before applying to join the Nightingale Club.

The goal has been achieved, and Ma Wei naturally has no intention of staying, so he leaves the club with Edward, takes a horse-drawn carriage to Russell Benjamin's apartment in London, and then uses teleportation magic to return to Flower Street.

It's a bit of a hassle to do so, but it's as good as possible to get rid of the tracking eyeliner.

"Your Highness..."

Shortly after Mavi left, a bank clerk sneaked up at the club and told Prince Charles that Manstein Potions was going to be listed on the London Stock Exchange on Monday.

Hearing the news, the eldest prince Charles's face suddenly became solemn, and he returned to his lounge, frowning and thinking hard.

"How much money do they have on board?"

"No less than 8 million gold pounds."

"How many shares do you want to give away?"

"I heard it's 30%."

Even if all the 30% shares are pocketed, it will not be able to shake the foundation of Manstein's Potions Company, as long as 70% of the shares are still in the hands of nobles such as Ma Wei and the second prince, there is no need to worry about investing in the stock exchange.

Equity is such a thing, of course, who takes more has the final say, now Nicholas has taken refuge in the second prince, and the soon-to-be-listed Potions company will be the biggest competitor in the future, the eldest prince will not sit idly by, he is thinking about how to do something out....

"Knicks, go and tell Bracken to prepare 3,000,000 gold pounds to buy shares in Manstein's Potions Company on Monday."

"Your Highness, isn't this helping them raise funds?" Butler Nicks was a little puzzled.

"Even if we don't buy shares, someone else will do it." The eldest prince said in a deep voice: "We must secretly get a part of the low-priced shares when we first went public, so that no matter who wins or loses in the future, we can do something with the shares in our hands." ”

The butler Nicks was about to say something, but the eldest prince waved his hand and interrupted: "Needless to say, go ahead and do it, by the way, tell Brecon that our potions company will also be listed on Monday, I think Andrew has also received the news, no surprise, he will also choose to go public next Monday, and there will be a fierce battle at that time..... It's always a good idea to have a little more money on hand. ”

"Yes, Your Highness, I'll do it."

Nix walked away quickly, the eldest prince Charles stared at the gray sky outside the window, his mood was depressed, this was the first time he felt the pressure, before Ma Wei came to London, everything was so smooth, he seemed to have felt the touch of the crown, but now the situation suddenly became confusing, his two younger brothers have made a move, this is undoubtedly a declaration of war.

A war without gunpowder has begun.

.........................................

In the evening, the figures of Ma Wei and Edward suddenly appeared in the study on the second floor, changed back to the appearance of Nicholas, Ma Wei changed his clothes and walked downstairs.

"Big brother, you're back!"

Seeing Ma Wei walking down from the upper floor, the person in charge of looking after the store immediately stood up and asked with concern, "How is the situation?" ”

"It's going well, the eldest prince invited me to participate in the golf tournament organized by the club the day after tomorrow, I have successfully attracted his attention, as long as I work harder, I will definitely become a member of the club and contact Hilton Moby.... How's business going today? ”

"It's about the same as the other day." The source handed the ledger to Ma Wei: "It's that the number of people who buy lethargic toast has suddenly increased, and 20 copies have been prepared today, and all of them have been sold out before noon, and many people will come to ask in the afternoon, do you want to stock up more tomorrow?" ”

It's no surprise that Sleepy Toast has become the store's best-selling item.

Just like cigarettes, smokers smoke every day, and the effect of lethargic toast is stronger than that of cigarettes, and those aristocrats who can even smoke and inject cocaine will never be able to resist lethargic toast.

"You didn't steal it, did you?" Ma Wei looked through the ledger, "I warn you, although I have lowered the dosage of the potion in the Sleeping Toast, it still has a certain addiction, this addiction is not physical, but psychological, you must not touch it, understand?" ”

After Ma Wei lowered the dosage of potion in the toast, the addiction of Sleepy Toast was very low, as long as he didn't eat 10 pounds a day, he would definitely not be addictive.

Who can nibble on 10 pounds of toast in a day?

But lethargic toast is still addictive, and Ma Wei has found a clue to this in Archbishop Brandon.

The body has no dependence on toast, but psychologically, the beautiful illusion brought by sleeping toast makes many people unable to extricate themselves.

Sometimes, mental illness is more difficult to cure than physical illness.

"Big brother, you look down on us too much!" The source craned his neck and shouted, "What am I eating with Daniel for?" We don't lack anything, we live every day so full, we don't need to eat that! ”

"That's good."

Mavi nodded, took out his pocket watch and looked at the time, and found that it was almost 6 o'clock in the evening, closed the door of the shop, closed the business for a day, and the turnover today was 550 gold pounds, and sold 20 copies of Sleeping Toast for 20 gold pounds, 2 bottles of mercury blood, 10 bottles of Hercules' sticks and 10 tickle chocolates.

As a new commodity, tickle chocolate has aroused the curiosity of many nobles, and they bought it at home just to test the special effect of chocolate, but....

This is a tricky commodity specially prepared by Ma Wei for Daniel to go to school, the price is 2 gold pounds / block, some unwitting nobles eat it, it is estimated that they can't sleep all night....

Forget it, it's not life-threatening anyway, whatever.

After dinner, Ma Wei called Yunia back to the study, and used the Kraken's Tears to open the dark room located behind the bookcase, there is a stone platform in the dark room, on which the pentagram is depicted in gold, and at the top of the magic array, human skulls, hand bones, and leg bones are placed in turn....

Ancient Magic – The Chamber of the Gods.

The Chamber of the Gods was specially brought by Ma Wei to contact the Romanov Kingdom, and Badge said that the Chamber of the Gods is extremely complicated, and the medium is the Oracle Silkworm, which is a magical magic that uses the endless darkness to communicate, and the Golden Gods used the Oracle Silkworm to deceive Baggy, and even Badge can't find it, and the three goddesses of fate definitely can't do it.

The stone platform has been formed, and the statue of Yunia is placed in the middle of the magic array, and Ma Wei puts the white oracle silkworm in the middle of the stone platform, bites his finger, squeezes out a few drops of blood, and feeds it to the silkworm to devour.

The oracle silkworm that absorbed the blood quickly became blood-red, spit out a red silk, wrapped around the idol, and linked to the human bones placed at the top of the magic array, when the silk threads were connected, the five-pointed star array lit up with red light, and above the stone platform, there was also a surging gray mist, covering the roof of the dark room.

After a short silence....

Above the gray mist, Dino's voice suddenly sounded.

"Priest?"

The hazy mist dissipated like ink, and a black shadow appeared, floating in the air, casting a gaze towards the gray mist.

"It's me."

With a slight wave of his arm, the gray mist began to surge, revealing a clear picture of Dino standing in the prayer hall of St. Basil's Cathedral, also staring at the scene that appeared in the gray mist.

"Long time no see, Dino."

Dino didn't recognize Mavi's disguise for the first time, and now Mavi is Nicolas von Manstein's appearance, but he quickly recognized it, shook his head and smiled: "Father, I thought you would contact me as soon as you arrived in London, but I didn't expect it to take so long.... I thought you were in some trouble. ”

"Everything is fine on my side, how is the situation at home?"

"It's not a big deal, the land reform is still underway, the situation in Kyiv, Warsaw, and Helsinki is still tense, but there is no sign of war, and recently the Cult of Wisdom has suddenly stopped, I don't know what the reason is.... By the way, this morning, Her Majesty Katerina specially asked about your situation! She's worried about what you're looking like. ”

"I've been lately...."

Mavi told everything that had happened since he came to London, and went straight to the point: "What is the economic situation of the Romanov Kingdom?" I need financial assistance on my side. ”

"Priest, the money you want is not a small amount...."Dino said silently: "The church's finances are tight, and the kingdom is the same, the goods are unsalable, and the trade cannot be carried out.... I'll figure it out. ”

Of course, Ma Wei knew the situation at home, he was not optimistic before he left, and there was no sign of improvement after the year, and Dino was also under great pressure, and he also counted on Ma Wei's Potions Company to drive the church economy...

"It's okay, I have other options, you don't have to worry about it."

Ma Wei said: "I will take care of the money myself, you manage the church well, and tell Your Majesty Katerina that everything is fine on my side." ”

"Is it really okay?"

"No problem, don't forget, we still have the fourth prince as an ally."
