Chapter 015 Party News
The party continued, and amid the soft music, the servants in neatly dressed in uniforms shuttled back and forth among the guests with wine support. The noble young man raised his glasses from time to time to drink with others.
This is a scene that often appears in aristocratic gatherings. No wonder an old earl sighed: The so-called noble life is mostly about spending time clinking cups with each other.
Pa, pa, pa...
Vinson suddenly slapped his palm twice: "Dear beautiful ladies and handsome gentlemen, let's be quiet."
Seeing everyone turning their eyes over, Vincent said with satisfaction: "The following is the theme of this party... Please invite our harp master Mr. Dimon in Laiyan City to play for us, welcome everyone."
Slap sex...
Judging from the enthusiastic reactions of the crowd, Mr. Dimon is undoubtedly very popular among noble young people.
Amid the applause, a charming middle-aged man with long curly hair walked out of the side hall and bowed to everyone.
After the ceremony, Dimon pressed his hands with his hands, and the applause gradually stopped.
For a moment, a brisk music spilled out from Dimon's fingers.
The tune is clever and the artistic conception is simplistic, just like a lover's slender jade hands constantly teasing people's inner desires. The expressions of the young people seem to be extremely vivid as the tune rises and falls, and they look very enjoyable.
Vinson seemed to have put in a lot of effort. At this time, he was pointing at Dimon's harp and whispering something to Joshia. People around him kept pausing their heads and seemed to agree with his point of view.
Tang En is a layman in music, so he naturally doesn't understand what it is expressed. He just thinks the tune is very coherent and sounds very comfortable.
"This music...is the chapter of the God of Love? Haha, Vincent really took great pains." A noble young man next to Tang En raised his glass and smiled.
"That's natural. Joshia looks good. Although the family is just a baron without a fief, she is a junior magician. From this point of view, if the two of them really succeed, Vincent's family will definitely make a profit."
"Yes, the identity of the magician is really eye-catching..." A young nobleman with freckles sighed and then asked in doubt: "But Vincent is just the eldest son of the Viscount Delk family, why did he get the lead?"
"You don't know that the Delk family and the Chloe family have old age. Later, the Chloe family was not good at managing and fell down, and the two families did not often interact. However, as Joshia was confirmed as a magician, the two families began to contact frequently again, and Vincent naturally became close to the water..."
"So that's it. This kid is really lucky. It seems that the status of the Delk family is about to be improved again!"
"Yes..." several people agreed.
"Sweep, shallow. You guys only see the surface, but don't know the key inside. The benefits the Delk family gets far more than that." At this time, a young man with a gloomy face suddenly spoke.
"Oh? Any profound insights? You might as well say them so that we can see them..." The young man was quite rude and someone replied with a slight ridicule.
The young man with a gloomy face looked at the man who replied disdainfully and said, "Tell me, what is the thing that Laiyan City is most concerned about now?"
"The thing I pay most attention to... Well, was the bachelorette in Xicheng District catching the adulterer on the spot a few days ago?" said the freckled young man.
"……no."
"Which a noble lady was arrested for having an affair?"
“…”
The young man with a gloomy face slapped his head speechlessly and said weakly: "It's the expansion of the dock..."
"Oh, that's the matter. I heard that Nangang will expand 24 docks. But what does this have to do with the Delk family?"
"It didn't matter before, but it's hard to say now." The young man said: "Everyone knows the interests of the wharf, which is the assembly line for producing gold coins. When the Nangang was first built, the chaos was just to compete for the ownership of the wharf."
Seeing everyone staring at him and listening, the young man's vanity was greatly satisfied, and he continued: "Now 24 new docks have been built, and the distribution of benefits is undoubtedly the top priority. There are four Earl family in Laiyan City, and they undoubtedly want to occupy most of the interests. But when they eat meat, they always have to leave some soup for others, otherwise the tragedy in Nangang will repeat itself."
"I guess there will be at least ten docks for other forces to compete for. There must be at least dozens of families with some strength in Laiyan City. It is obvious that there are too many people and few meats. At this time, they will naturally rely on their own skills."
"Although the Delk family has little strength, it has no outstanding advantages. Most of the time it takes to grab a dock depends on luck. But if Vinson marrys Joshia, the situation will be different. Not only will he have the support of a new star noble, but Joshia also has the identity of a magician, which is a double weight. In this way, the Delk family will inevitably win the battle for the dock."
"With the dock, coupled with the escort of a high-lived magician, why worry about not prospering the Delk family?"
"Hiss... makes sense, makes sense! After hearing what you said, this party was not in vain." People around them agreed and looked at the young man with a slightly admiration.
The young man curled his lips slightly, with a far-sighted expression, and waved his hand to indicate that it was nothing. "These ignorant fools know how to drink and play with women all day long. They don't even know the news about the streets... I have gained my reputation in vain."
Thinking of the young people around him and spreading their names and words to various parties, the young man with a gloomy face couldn't help but feel even more proud.
"I said why didn't Vincent visit us in brothels recently? It turned out that's the reason..." The freckled young man looked at Vincent who was performing hard on the other side with a jealous look.
"Hmph, it's too early to say this now. Look, Joshia obviously has no good feelings for him..."
"Yo, so, do you want to go up and try it?"
"Haha, fair competition..."
…………
"Tsk tsk, I didn't expect Joshia was quite popular," Tang En said with emotion after hearing the remarks of these noble young men.
After he had a preliminary understanding of how precious and rare magicians were, he had already thought of their status and importance enough. Now it seems that it is far from enough.
The bend and the warm applause rang again.
At this time, a man who was like a housekeeper came to Vinson and said something in his ear.
Vinson's face gradually became excited. After the applause was over, he couldn't wait to say, "Tell everyone a good news. Lord Robert Bevin is outside the manor. Come with me to greet him."
boom……
As soon as the words came to an uproar, the atmosphere in the hall was instantly revived.
A big shot? Tang En saw the people around him exclaiming constantly and guessed to himself.
Then he learned about Robert Bevin's identity from the heated discussion.
The Robert family is one of the four major Earl families in Rhine City, among which Count Robert is the current city lord of Laiyan City. Bevin is the second son of the Earl.
Generally speaking, the second son has no inheritance rights. But the Robert family is a bit special.
From the casual discussions of everyone around him, Tang En learned that the eldest son of the Robert family seemed not to be liked by the earl. However, this second son, Bevin, was highly valued by the earl and has now begun to help the earl handle the city government affairs. It was like the next city lord.
Such a special character is obviously worthy of the young nobles' friendship. If you really get the friendship of this future city lord, you naturally don't have to worry about the future development of the family in Laiyan City.
Maybe everyone thought of this, so the party hall was empty in an instant, and everyone followed Vinson to the manor to greet this Robert Bevin.
