Chapter 50 Lampa Club (Part 1)
2nd floor
When night fell, a carriage stopped at the Lampa Club. A young nobleman walked down the carriage, which was Shuiglare.
Lampa Club is a famous top club in Royo City and is only open to people in the upper class.
Xiuyi looked up at the plaque above her head, and a charming smile flowed from the corner of her mouth.
He turned around and invited Lilith out of the carriage.
"Why do we have to come to this place? I don't understand, Siser." Lilith asked, waving the little fan in her hand and holding a folded skirt.
"My dear sister, if a family wants to rise, it is not enough to make money and trade. Spending money is also an indispensable and important part. Unlike making money, spending money can quickly have more friends in this city. At the same time, learning how to spend money is a very important knowledge. In many cases, the biggest difference between aristocrats and nouveau riche is not how they make money, but how they spend money."
"It's amazing, as a woman, I don't think I have to think about these things."
"A good place to sell money is also a gathering place for excellent men, and that's exactly what you need."
"Don't be too anxious to marry your sister."
The siblings spoke and walked into the Lampa club hand in hand.
Xiu Yi gave the waiter a reward of Jin Weit and took advantage of his actions.
The club is decorated very luxuriously. Large clay chandeliers in pagoda-shaped shapes are everywhere. Light stands made of obsidian and even the lamp caps are made of silver. The floor is made of very hard diamonds, which can be used to refine strong rare metal diamonds. They are needed to be used when making diamond puppets.
The walls around the club are full of oil paintings from famous artists from all over the world, and the floor is covered with luxurious cashmere carpets. Royo City itself does not produce cashmere, so these things must come in from outside.
All three floors of the entire Lampa Club, each floor has two small living rooms, a conference room, a twelve VIP rooms and a shared casino.
The male waiter wearing a black tuxedo and white gloves was mainly responsible for the reception work on the outside. When he arrived at the club, some dressed girls were treated to show off. Each was a beautiful girl who was less than sixteen years old.
According to the rules of Lampa Club, the first floor is that if you have money, you can use computer novel stations: wherever you come, the second floor requires a certain status, and the third floor can only be a real big shot in the city with status.
According to the current identity of the Dardanelles family, they are qualified to enter the second floor to receive services. The Lampa Club has received information about the Dardanelles family. After all, up to 60% of the materials purchased, and the transactions even exceeded those of the Imperial officials. It is impossible not to let the person in charge here pay attention, but Xiu Yi wanted to go to the third floor.
When he came to a foreman in charge of the reception, Shuyi took out a business card: "Heir to the Dardanell family, Siser Dardanell, I have a service card from Mrs. Christine."
After reading the foreman's business card and membership service card, he respectfully said, "Yes, sir, this is for you. Do you need to go to the public entertainment hall or prepare a small room for you alone?"
"Public Entertainment Hall, I hope to make more friends there."
"Okay sir."
Following the foreman to the public entertainment hall on the third floor of the club, Xiu Yi took off her coat and hung it up by the waiter. He held Lilith's hand into the hall.
There were not many people in the gorgeous hall. Some were roasting fire in front of the fireplace and talking, while others were looking out at the distant scenery from the window. The most far behind were there, there were a few small tables, some were drinking and talking, and there were maids around them to provide them with the best service at any time.
The wine glass is the Tiansney that the nobles love to drink. The bright red wine is crystal clear. Under the light, the words of chatting and laughing with the nobles are reflected in Xiuyi's eyes.
Some people saw Xiuyi walk in and stop talking.
The name Cisser D'Artellini has been very famous in Royo City recently, second only to Thuyglair. The grand dance party impressed many people with outstanding performance.
"Oh, Siser, my friend, how could you have time to come to Lampa!" A man's call sounded in his ears.
A thin man walked towards Xiuyi with great strides and spread his enthusiastic arms.
The vice chairman of Dodge Trading, O'Conman Dodge.
"Mr. Dodge, I'm glad to see you here. After I heard that the Lampa Club is the most luxurious gold-selling cave in Royo City, I couldn't help but want to come and have a look." Xiuyi smiled and greeted her.
Oconman Dodge first bowed to Lilith as a gentleman, then took Shuyi's hand and said, "Oh, don't believe the rumors from the outside world. In fact, the Lampa Club is not the kind of place you imagined. You should see that this is a small place where everyone can gather freely when they are fine. Yes, I admit that the decoration here is very luxurious, but that doesn't explain anything. We are not here to pursue any enjoyment, this is just a circle. A circle that allows everyone to contact each other and chat with each other. Everything here is very casual. If you need any service, it is definitely not a gold-selling cave, but just a leisure place. If you pursue high-end enjoyment, I can introduce some good places to you."
"Oh no, I think it's good here. In fact, I just want to get into this circle as much as possible."
"Then it's a good idea to come to Lampa. I can fully understand the idea of the Dardanelles trying to become a noble family, but there are some things that cannot be rushed. Come on, young man, come with me, I'll introduce you to some friends."
"Okay Mr. Dodge."
"Call me O'Conman, that's more kind."
"Thank you so much."
"You have to be welcome." Mr. Dodge replied with a smile.
Under the guidance of Dodge, Souyi quickly became familiar with the people here. The Viscount Ladur, of the Bavarian family, was also here. Perhaps it was due to the arrogance of the noble family, he did not show Dodge's enthusiasm, but he also welcomed Souyi.
After getting to know each other, everyone quickly became a fond of this young man who came from a maritime family but had good cultivation and was gentle and polite. Xiu Yi performed very well in etiquette. His gentle and kind appearance and the support of the huge family behind him made some people willing to put down their airs and consider a condom relationship with the little heir of the Dardanell family.
"Master Dardanell, how is the alchemy production going on over you?" Viscount Ladul was more concerned about business matters.
"In fact, the first shipment has been completed." Xiu Yi quickly replied: "Under our agreement, you will have priority in the selection of finished products, and we will give you the lowest price. I believe you will be interested in those products."
"Oh, yes, since I saw your scout bee that day, I believe that it is much more useful than simply bringing some money back." Viscount Ladul breathed a sigh of relief when the first batch of goods needed to be made.
In this matter, Xiu Yi did make every effort. If he wanted to fully integrate into these upper nobles, he had to come up with some real information.
"How about going to play cards together?" Mr. Dodge suggested.
"Excellent." Xiu Yi was thinking.
"You guys play, I'll just sit here for a while." Lilith replied with a lazy look on her face.
"I'll be back soon," said Xiuyi.
The Lance Empire is popular with a card game similar to Soha, called "Lance Card", which is said to be a game invented by the Rose Monarch back then. The Lance card uses seven cards to win, with two open cards and five secret cards, with three people starting from the number of people. Up to six people are allowed, three are given for the first time, and one for each round can be raised. The Lampa Club is not a gold-selling place that outsiders have spent a lot of money, but it is also impossible to have small bets like lower-class civilians. Therefore, the minimum requirement for each round of the card game here is not high, usually at least 1 goldweit.
Don’t underestimate these Jinweites. With one hand, you can win or lose dozens of Jinweites. If you are lucky, hundreds or thousands of Jinweites are common in one night. However, for most of the guests here, it is not a damaging thing.
When Dodge and Viscount Radul came to the card hall with Xiuyi, Xiuyi swept around.
The placard hall of the Lampa Club has four long tables and eight small square tables.
After sweeping the hall, Shuyi said to Dodge and Viscount Ladul, "How about we go to Table 3?"
Dodge looked at it and said, "No problem, there are not too many people there."
When he arrived at table No. 3, the dealer looked at Xiuyi with a strange face, and his eyes were confused.
Mr. Dodge said: "This is Siser Dardanell of the Dardanell family. From today on, he will become a distinguished guest of your club."
"Okay sir." The dealer answered cleverly.
The two maids brought them chairs very cleverly.
"I'll introduce you." Radul said to Soui: "Lord Barge, the Director of the Resources Department of Royo."
Lord Balger is an old man who has already bald, with a pair of deep and concave hook noses that look extremely sharp.
"I'm glad to meet you, Lord Balger."
The other party said lightly: "I have heard of you, the young heir of the newly emerged Dardanelles family. That night, two teenagers caused a sensation in Royo City at the same time."
"Yes, I've heard of that tragedy."
"I was shocked by the inability and ability of the Imperial Law and Political Department." Lord Balger criticized his colleagues without hesitation.
Ladur continues to introduce the next one.
Ike; Mr. Jeffrey, a wealthy gentleman with a very famous local reputation.
When the third person was introduced, a trace of unknown excitement finally appeared in Xiuyi's eyes.
That was a middle-aged man.
The man was wearing a blue coat, a white vest, with a thick gold chain hanging on the vest, and brown pants. His hair was very dark and drooping low on his forehead, almost covering his eyebrows. In particular, this dark and shiny hair was very disproportionate to the deep wrinkles on his face at the moment, making people suspect that it was a wig. In short, although this man was obviously about fifty years old, he wanted to make people feel that he was less than forty years old.
"This is Earl of Streas, the warden of Spark Prison."
Xiu Yi saluted the other party and said respectfully: "I'm glad to know you, Lord Streas."
