Chapter 015: Gathering Experience

The party continued, and to the sound of soft music, servants in neat uniforms shuttled back and forth with wine trays to and fro among the guests, and aristocratic young people raised their wine glasses from time to time to drink with others.

This is a scene that often occurs in aristocratic gatherings, and it is no wonder that an old earl lamented that most of the so-called aristocratic life is to kill time in clinking glasses with each other.

Slap, slap, slap......

Vincent suddenly slapped his palms twice: "Beautiful ladies and handsome gentlemen, everyone be quiet. ”

Seeing that everyone looked at him, Vincent said with satisfaction, "This is the theme of this gathering...... We have invited Mr. Dumont, the harp master of Laiyan City, to play for us, everyone is welcome. ”

Bang Bang Bang ......

Judging from the enthusiastic reaction of the crowd, this Monsieur Dumont was undoubtedly very popular with the aristocratic youth.

In the midst of applause, I saw a charming middle-aged man with long curly hair walking out of the side hall and bowing to everyone.

At the end of the ceremony, Dimon pressed his hands and the applause gradually stopped.

In a moment, a burst of light music poured out from the plucking of Dimon's fingers.

The melody is dexterous and the artistic conception is beautiful, just like a lover's Qianqianyu hand constantly teasing people's inner lust. The expressions of the young people were vivid and unusual as the tune rose and fell, and they seemed to be enjoying themselves.

Vincent seemed to have put a lot of effort into it, and was pointing to Dumont's harp at this time, whispering something to Josia. The people around him kept pausing, and they seemed to agree with him.

For music, Donn is a layman, so naturally he can't understand what is expressed in it. He just felt that the tune was coherent and sounded comfortable.

"This music ...... Is it the chapter of Eros? Hehe, Vincent really took great pains. An aristomy from Don's side smiled at the glass he faced.

"That's natural, this Josia is good-looking, although the family is only a baron without a fief, but she herself is a junior magician. From this point of view, if the two can really succeed, Vincent's family will definitely earn it. ”

"Yes, the identity of a magician is really hot......" A noble young man with freckles on his face sighed, and then asked questions: "But Vincent is just the eldest son of Viscount Deck's family, how did he take the lead?"

"You don't know, the Deck family and the Chloe family have an old relationship. Later, the Chloe family was not good at management, so it fell, and the two families did not interact often. However, with Josia being confirmed as a magician, and the two families began to contact frequently, Vincent was naturally close to the water......"

"I see, this kid is really lucky, it seems that the status of the Deck family is going to be improved again!"

"Yes......" several people chimed in.

"Snort, shallow. You only see the surface, but you don't know the key inside. The benefits for the Deck family are much more than that. At this time, a young man with a gloomy face suddenly spoke.

"Oh, what other profound insights do you have? You might as well say it, so that we can see and understand......," the young man spoke rather politely, and someone stabbed back with a slight mockery.

The gloomy young man looked at the man who replied with disdain: "Tell me, what is the most important thing in Laiyan City right now?"

"The most important thing...... Well, it was the baroness of Xicheng District who caught rape on the spot a few days ago?", said the freckled youth.

“...... No. ”

"Which noble lady was caught cheating?"

“......”

The gloomy young man patted his head speechlessly, and said weakly: "It's the expansion of the dock......

"Oh, that's it. I've heard that Nangang is going to expand 24 terminals. But what does this have to do with the Deck family?"

"It didn't matter before, but now it's hard to say. The young man said, "Everyone knows the interests of the wharf, which is an assembly line for the production of gold coins. When the South Port was first built, the chaos was not just to fight for the ownership of the wharf. ”...,

Seeing that everyone was staring at him and listening, the young man's vanity was greatly satisfied, and he continued: "Now that 24 new docks have been built, the distribution of benefits among them is undoubtedly the most important. There are four Earl families in Lai Yan City, and they undoubtedly have the majority of the interests. But when they eat meat, they always have to leave some soup for others, otherwise the tragedy in Nangang will be repeated. ”

"I guess there will be at least ten docks to be given up to the other shili. There are dozens of families with a little strength in Laiyan City, and it is obvious that there are more people and less meat, so at this time, they naturally have their own skills. ”

"Although the Decker family has a small strength, they don't have any outstanding advantages. If you want to grab a pier, most of it depends on luck. But if Vincent marries Josia, the situation will be different, not only will there be more support from the new star nobles, but Josia will also have the identity of a magician, which is a double weight. In this way, the Decker family is bound to win the battle for the docks. ”

"With the gold coin production line at the dock, and the escort of a long-lived magician, why shouldn't the Deck family prosper?"

"Sizzle...... Reasonably, reasonable! After listening to your words, this meeting will not come in vain. The people around echoed and looked at the gloomy young man with a little admiration.

The young man pouted slightly, with a look of foresight, and waved his hand to indicate that it was nothing. "These straw bales who don't learn and don't know how to do it all day long know that they drink and play with women, and they don't even know the news that it's all rotten...... I have gained fame for nothing. ”

Thinking of these young people around him, scattering his name and words to various gatherings, the gloomy young man couldn't help but be even more complacent.

"I said, why didn't this Vincent go to the brothel with us recently, it turns out that this is the reason......" The freckled young man looked at Vincent who was working hard over there with a slight jealousy.

"Hmph, it's too early to say this, you see Josia obviously doesn't have a good impression of him......"

"Yo, so you want to go up and try it?"

"Hehe, fair competition......"

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

"Tsk, I didn't expect Josia to be quite popular", Don said with emotion after listening to the remarks of this group of aristocratic youths.

After he initially understood how precious and rare magicians were, he had already thought high enough about their status and importance, but now it seemed that it was far from enough.

The song ended, and the warm applause rang out again.

At that moment, a butler-like man came up to Vincent and whispered something in his ear.

Vincent's face gradually became excited, and when the applause was over, he couldn't wait to say: "Good news for everyone, Your Excellency Robert Bevan is outside the manor, everyone come with me to greet him." ”

Rumble......

The voice fell. Everyone was in an uproar, and the atmosphere in the hall was instantly uplifted.

Big shots? Don En saw the people around him screaming in surprise, and secretly guessed.

Immediately, he learned the identity of Robert Bevan from the heated discussion.

The Robert family is one of the four major earl families of Rhine, of which Count Robert is the current lord of Rhine. And this Bevin is the second son of the earl.

Generally speaking, the second son has no right to inherit. But there's something special about this Robert family.

From the casual discussion of the surrounding people, Don learned that the eldest son of the Robert family did not seem to be liked by the earl, but this second son, Bevin, was very valued by the earl, and now he had begun to help the earl deal with the city's affairs. It's like the next city lord.

Such a special person is obviously worthy of the friendship of young nobles, and if he really gets the friendship of this future city lord, the future development of the family in Laiyan City naturally does not have to worry.

Probably thinking of this, the meeting hall was empty in an instant, and everyone followed Vincent to the outside of the manor to greet Robert Bevan.
