Chapter 37: Grab it
A rich and elegant Mrs. Helen, the Marquis of Casper and a serious middle-aged man in the costume of an Imperial Navy officer stood at the entrance of the stairs on the second floor. Mrs. Helen said to Marquis of Casper:
"Mr. Marquis, how do you feel?"
Marquis Casper, holding a glass of red wine, looked at Xia Mo who was talking and laughing with Poppy below and said:
"It's true, as the lady said, a little clever!"
The naval officer standing beside him was named Nelson, a rising star of the Imperial Navy and a loyal suitor to Mrs. Helen! This civilian naval general made great achievements on the Sail Sea two years ago and won the only [Fearless Medal] awarded by the Imperial Army in nearly 60 years!
It was this battle that made the Turing Empire defeat the White Rose Empire and turned the Seerhai at the junction of the two countries into its own inland sea!
After hearing the Marquis of Casper's comments, the strong-faced and serious empire star shook his head and said:
"Master, you underestimate this child too much! He is not clever, but very wise!"
The Marquis Casper was slightly stunned when he heard this, a little surprised. If someone else said this, he might sneer. But if Nelson said it, he would attach great importance to it! He knew better than anyone else how powerful this civilian general who had been sponsored by him since childhood!
Although Marquis Casper invested countless businesses in his life, many of which were talked about. But in his mind, he always felt that his most successful investment was to invest and cultivate him for decades when Nelson was young!
He even advocated the inclusion of Nelson into his Monas family, making Nelson the only person in the Monas family's history who had no family blood but could attend a family meeting!
He once said without any concealment at a family meeting:
"The Monas family will surely gain a supreme scepter of the ocean in the future because of Nelson!"
When the Marquis Casper was stunned, Nelson explained:
"If the head of the family does not understand Dijia, he may be deceived by this child. In fact, Dijia does not have the Suhe province that this child calls him!"
After hearing this, not only Casper was stunned, but even Mrs. Helen was stunned! Since there was no Suhe Province, the Suhe white wine in her mouth naturally did not exist!
So, the words this child used to humiliate the noble lady in the hall just now are completely nonsense!
Perhaps seeing what they thought, Nelson said to them:
"If this is the case, he can only be considered a little anxious! Although Diga does not have Suhe Province, he said everything else, caviar with sour cream, and white wine is indeed delicious! Of course, although the Dodon red wine is not as good as white wine, it is not as bad as he said!"
Half true and half false, false, real and aristocratic standard style of dealing with things!
Marquis Casper looked at Xia Mo's eyes lit up, just like when he saw the young Nelson! In the following talks, you might as well give him more benefits!
The banquet continued happily. After the lesson just now, no one without eyesight came to ask for trouble! So Xia Mo, Poppy and Oscar both had a great time eating!
Foie gras, caviar, steak, and black truffle, these extremely luxurious and expensive delicacies in their previous lives were provided at the banquet! It should be said that Xia Mo's arrival was very good this time, just as Marquis Casper spared no effort to promote the crystal lanterns produced in his own workshop!
If these extremely luxurious and expensive things in normal times, they would not be provided again and again! In order to advertise their own crystal lanterns, Marquis Casper's banquet can be said to have invested a lot of money!
Xia Mo’s favorite is the fragrant pork, known as “golden meat”!
The taste is delicious, smooth and refreshing. What makes him feel most comfortable is that after eating this pork, his body feels light and a slight airflow can be clearly felt on his body!
This is probably the effect of the magic contained in fragrant pork. No wonder this fragrant pork is sought after by spellcasters! But what surprised him was that Bobby had no other feelings about this meat except for feeling delicious.
This made Xia Mo very puzzled. Could this be the difference between a spellcaster and a warrior? Oscar also ate very happily! His already big belly was even bigger, which made Xia Mo very worried about it. If it would explode with a "bang" when it touched it!
Xia Mo and Bobby were full and drank, half lying on the high-backed chair beside the table, slowly digesting. Oscar lay on the table in front of Xia Mo, motionless. After a while, an old housekeeper wearing a black tuxedo and meticulously combed his hair walked to Xia Mo and the others, bowed slightly and said:
"Dear Master Austin, Miss Poppy, my master is invited!"
After hearing the old housekeeper's words, Xia Mo and Bobby had not yet expressed anything, and Oscar, who was lying on the table, suddenly became anxious! It got up, shook its big belly, and made a "whimper" cry!
Xia Mo pulled Poppy to stand up, then grabbed Oscar's back neck, slapped it on the head in anger, and said:
"What's the name? It depends on your future! If you want others to remember you, grow quickly! If one day you can grow to cover the sky, then the whole continent will remember you!"
After saying that, he ignored Oscar's aggrieved screams and put them on his head, as if wearing a strange hat. After listening to Austin's words, the old butler smiled slightly.
What a fun kid!
It is not easy to get such a lizard to cover the sky and the sun! The word "cover the sky and the sun" is the patent of those few sky overlord species!
After watching Xia Mo and Bobby walk up the second floor with the old housekeeper, many people in the hall were surprised! Anyone who has been to attend a few banquets knows how difficult it is to climb the two floors above this three-story building!
The ladies who had sarcasticized Xia Mo and Bobby were so ashamed that they wanted to find a mouse hole to crawl in!
While Xia Mo and Bobby were half lying on a high-backed chair to rest, a beautiful girl dressed in beautiful clothes with a red bow tied on her head was approaching here. As a result, she had just arrived near, and before she could say hello to Xia Mo and Bobby stood up and followed the housekeeper of the Monas family and walked towards the second floor!
The little girl stood by the tables before Xia Mo and Bobi, looking gloomy! In fact, since Xia Mo and Bobi came in, she had seen it early. But she was following her mother at that time and couldn't get out of her body!
Looking at the little girl's sad face, the old man in housekeeper's clothing walked up to him and squatted down, tidied up his wrinkled skirt for his lady. Then the old man stood up and comforted softly:
"No one can block Miss Belle's charm, and this lucky boy is no exception."
The little girl Belle looked up at the old housekeeper and said:
"Grandpa Holden, what if he likes others?"
The old butler said lightly:
"Old Holden just helps the lady grab it!"
