Chapter 35 The Importance of Character
Compared with half a year ago, Chen Heng's economic situation has improved greatly.
The reason for this is, on the one hand, the strong support of Baron Kaysen.
After knowing that Chen Heng had become a student of a knight, and even that he had awakened his knightly qualifications and become a knight's apprentice, Baron Kaisen seemed to have made up his mind, and his support for Chen Heng suddenly became much greater.
In the past, he was already extremely supportive of Chen Heng, but after that, this support became even stronger.
To put it bluntly, a considerable part of the taxes in Baron Kaisen's territory were handed over to Chen Heng by Baron Kaisen to support Chen Heng's expenses in Kutu.
With this start-up capital, Chen Heng was also able to show his skills and feet, and with this investment, he has purchased a lot of industries in the past six months, which has greatly improved his economic situation.
Back at his manor, in the room, Chen Heng changed into clean clothes, and then got into the carriage and left the place.
After leaving this place, more than half an hour later, he came to a strange manor.
The place in front of him looked very spacious, and the area in it was very large, far more luxurious and extravagant than Chen Heng's manor.
Stepping down from the carriage, at the gate of the manor, there were already people waiting there to greet Chen Heng.
"Mr. Kailin, you've finally arrived. ”
Looking at Chen Heng, the old housekeeper stepped forward with a smile on his face: "Young Master Kaili has been waiting inside for a long time. ”
"Sorry, I ran into something on the way, so I was delayed for a while. ”
Chen Heng smiled apologetically, and then spoke: "Please take me in." ”
The old butler smiled and nodded, and then they walked slowly forward and walked in.
As they walked in, the decorations in the manor in front of them were revealed in front of Chen Heng.
Compared with Chen Heng's residence, this place is obviously much more exquisite, and the decoration in all aspects is more perfect, and there are many places, as well as some gadgets from afar, which look very exquisite.
Walking in it, a fragrance comes from it, which is the fragrance of flowers and plants.
Not long after, Chen Heng walked into the hall.
At this moment, there were already many people standing in the entire hall.
These people were standing in the middle of the hall, talking quietly, and there were quite a few others, who were already dancing on the side, looking leisurely.
Of course, these people are generally very young, and they are basically young people, so they are more casual and not as formal as a formal banquet.
Seeing Chen Heng walk in, the atmosphere of the scene changed a little.
Many people's eyes were fixed on Chen Heng at the same time.
There was a little surprise in their eyes, as if they were surprised that he would be here.
"Kailin, my friend. ”
In front, a young man wearing a golden regular robe who looked quite handsome stood up, walked briskly towards Chen Heng, and then gave him a hug directly.
"Why are you here so late?"
He hugged Chen Heng, and only after a moment did he smile and speak: "I almost thought you weren't coming." ”
"How is that possible?"
Chen Heng smiled, and then said, "We are best friends, I won't fail to come to your banquet." ”
"Yes. ”
Hearing this, a smile appeared on Carey's face.
Then, he pulled Chen Heng forward, with a faint smug look on his face.
Even for a person of his status, Chen Heng at this moment is also a very important guest, and even in his heart, he can be ranked alongside the children of the rest of the big men.
The reason is simple.
Although Chen Heng came from an ordinary background, Coribo was his teacher, and this identity was enough to make up for the lack of family background.
As far as Chen Heng himself is concerned, as a knight apprentice, he is already a knight genius recognized by the entire Kutu City, and is known as one of the few apprentices who are most likely to become knights in the future.
Coupled with Chen Heng's own ability and the good reputation he has gained in the past six months, in combination, for Kai Li, it is far more useful than those so-called descendants of big people.
After all, although the status of those people is prominent, but to be honest, except for a few people, the vast majority of people, that is, they just look good, and there is not much substance at all, how can there be a future knight who is important?
Many people are well aware of this.
In the past six months, many people have invited Chen Heng to banquets, actively inviting him to participate in various activities and attend various gatherings.
But for these invitations, not everyone Chen Heng will go.
After all, no matter what it is, once there is too much, it is not worth much.
Those people wanted to befriend Chen Heng in order to gain the friendship of a future knight.
But friendship is sometimes very empty.
If Chen Heng goes to all the banquet invitations and makes friends with everyone at the same time, it is not easy to have an effect.
After all, if you have something that he has, then it is not worth much.
Only if you cherish it enough, you can have value.
Therefore, for his own diplomacy, Chen Heng maintained the strategy of contacting a few people and keeping a distance from the majority.
Therefore, not everyone could call Chen Heng out and invite him to participate in his banquet.
The fact that Carey in front of him was able to do this, to be able to do things that no one else could, was undoubtedly complacent.
Feeling the shock and surprise in the sights of the people around him, the smile on Kaili's face became brighter, and he also valued Chen Heng more.
In the hall, he solemnly introduced everyone and introduced Chen Heng to everyone present.
Not surprisingly, when Chen Heng's knighthood was introduced, it caused an exclamation from the audience.
And in this process, Chen Heng's face always remained calm, ignoring the astonishing eyes that kept being cast around him.
After a few moments, he sat down and watched the banquet go on in silence.
It has to be said that Kurudo does not like to participate in such banquets and prefers to train alone, and it is not for nothing.
At least in Chen Heng's opinion, the banquet in front of him was simply boring.
Fashionably dressed and brightly dressed aristocratic men and women chatted in this place, reciting a certain poem from time to time, or inviting someone to dance various dances.
The whole scene made Chen Heng feel a little bored when he looked at it, and he couldn't arouse any interest at all.
Of course, in this process, because of his status as a knight and good appearance, it was not without a woman who stepped forward and invited Chen Heng to dance together.
If Chen Heng is willing, maybe he can hug the beauty on the spot, hugging left and right.
Just like many people around us.
However, for these, Chen Heng's face was calm, and he refused gently.
It's not that he's not close to women, it's just to maintain a good reputation.
In many cases, fame is also a strength.
In order to maintain a good reputation, for most of the past half a year, Chen Heng has acted gently, not having an affair with any woman, and never clashing with others, just to establish an image of a knight with good character and pure temperament.
The image has finally been erected, how can it be lost here.
Chen Heng is also counting on the fact that one day in the future, through the character and image that he has finally established, he will hang a noble daughter with enough status.
How can it collapse here?
Therefore, for the women around him who took the initiative to step forward, Chen Heng's face was gentle and he refused one by one.
All around, there was a sound of extravagance, and from time to time a woman's moaning sounded, as if something bad was sitting in the dark.
Chen Heng's eyes did not squint, his body sat straight, and he was indifferent to this.
In the midst of the chaos of the banquet scene, he was like the most unique scenery, which was surprising.
All around, looking at Chen Heng, who was sitting in his seat in front of him, his face was calm and calm, his face was handsome, and he was full of an elegant and noble atmosphere, and the women around him couldn't help but cast bursts of brilliance.
I don't know why, it's clear that the other party never pays attention to them, but they are more instinctively attracted to it, and they can't control it at all.
"That person, who is it?"
Finally, Chen Heng's performance attracted the attention of some people.
In the corner, a little girl wearing a long black dress who didn't look very old, but was about fifteen or sixteen years old, was sitting there, secretly looking at Chen Heng who was sitting in front of her at this moment, and couldn't help but have a touch of curiosity.
