Chapter 506: The Gone Skinner
Time is fair to everyone, but not everyone hopes that she can stay for a long time. Just as the two protagonists of the banquet in the Kaisting Empire court were enjoying every second, Lu Chen restrained his annoyance, endured the social engagement that had no play, and hoped to reach the end as soon as possible. And the most outrageous thing was that due to lollipops, a large group of loli and Masao changed their goals and followed him, which just gave some daughters a very good reason to chat with him.
However, for this reason, the high-profile rewards to everyone became less eye-catching. All the nobles accused them of their group of upstarts in the kingdom with ridicule and jealous laughter.
Some small and medium-sized nobles who were not satisfied with the current situation also took the opportunity to introduce female members of the family to Xiu, the commander of the Legion, who had not yet officially graduated. Vanessa, who was always worried, was staring at the side and playing with himself. The young men also targeted the red thorn flowers that had just won the official title and were the second "Royal Sky Knight". What made them helpless was that these girls were all with the concubines, so they could not find a chance to start.
Then, halfway through the banquet, Dwyne, as usual, announced several favorable things to do in the next year. One of them was to refer to the operating model of the Red Thorn Flower to establish a non-governmental assistance agency funded by the royal family to support those children in the kingdom who want to become stronger but have no chance, and entrusted the advance work to the Red Thorn Flower.
As a result, the status of the common girls in the eyes of the great nobles changed again, because this one was equivalent to the royal family becoming a royal family, which means that they became imperial envoys without formal official positions until the so-called early work was completed; and those who could command the big family would not be fools. Everyone knew that this time would last for at least one era, which would end only if the common people had a deep understanding. By then, as long as these girls were still alive, they would have become the nobles.
Afterwards, some troublesome guy mentioned that the Red Thorn Flower divided half of the people and established the Valkyria Mercenary Group. Almost all the young men in the audience united and asked Dwyne to give them the opportunity to pursue happiness they deserve.
Looking at the excited foreign nobles in front of him, Dwayne had a headache and could only confess that the Red Thorn Flower was under Lu Chen's jurisdiction. As a result, Lu Chen could only abandon a few old uncles who recommended him to the powerful and powerful, fled back to the princess's mother-in-law, and happened to see the scene of her "accepting bribes", while the other side was the person who had made a grudge in front of the royal city gate.
"I didn't expect that after I saw you again, I'm already a grand duke. Congratulations, Duke Lucien. I don't know where your fief is? If I'm lucky enough to be a neighbor, I'm happy to provide you with some paid services." Seeing Lu Chen coming, Lowenstein deliberately took a step forward and blocked Niriya's hand with his gift behind him.
The other party was obviously trying to beat Luna, but no matter what he gave, it was just a cheaper mother-in-law. It would never be possible to change the established facts. Lu Chen replied indifferently: "Thank you in advance. But I don't need anything to help, and the fiefdom is a desolate place with no roads, so I won't bother you."
But as soon as Lu Chen said this, without the hint of joy in Tillo Weinstein's eyes, Niriya asked in confusion and worry: "A desolate place? Lucien, where is your fiefdom?"
"Uh~Anderes Mountains..." Mother-in-law asked, and Lu Chen naturally gave the truth, but he was interrupted after saying a name.
"What! How is this possible? How could Your Majesty give you a curse land?" Ni Ruiya was really anxious and even thought about whether to go to the Newcorun Forest to find the great master, or find someone to go to the Island League in the East China Sea to find her sister-in-law, and tell her about Lu Chen, the junior brother. After all, such a thing happened with Drake, and only these two people could play a role in it.
"No. You misunderstood, it was proposed by me myself. There will always be some unknown treasures in such undeveloped areas, which is the best for people like me. Moreover, for this, Your Majesty also gave me an extra Bryon. It's a big profit." Hearing his mother-in-law's tone, he was likely to go to trouble my father-in-law. Lu Chen, who was afraid of domestic violence, could only ignore Luo Wenstein beside him and stabilize Ni Ruiya as tactfully as possible.
The explanation is a bit vague. Everyone knows that there will always be some unexpected surprises in undeveloped places, but most of them are not enough to compensate for the price they need to pay. However, Ni Ruiya also realized that it is inconvenient to speak on this occasion, so she left without asking questions, "You young people~" and left. What's more, Lu Chen's performance so far shows that he is not an adventurous person. He will deliberately choose that curse place, and there must be a greater reason.
"Duke Lucien, I really don't know how to express it. I didn't expect that we would become neighbors, but the Andres Mountains... Forget it, since it was you who offered it, there was nothing to say. I wish you could find what you wanted there. Oh, by the way, by the way, if I were you, I would definitely spend my thoughts on the city of Bryon, even though he was just a medium-sized city." Lowenstein finished speaking with some sympathy and left. At the same time, a grand duke who wanted to be a fief of the curse land, increased his confidence in the pursuit of the Fourth Princess to an unprecedented level.
Both of them left like this, and Lu Chen was in trouble again. Fortunately, Clarence and Kenny seemed to have important things to come over and took him out of the banquet hall.
"Has the Skinner family collapsed?" When he arrived in the garden, Clarence really said something big. Even if Lu Chen had psychological equipment, he was still shocked.
"Yes, fortunately, I did what you said and saved part of them in time. Unfortunately, half of the real estate in the exchange was monopolized by a black market merchant." After returning, I learned that my third brother Parn had completely replaced the manufacturing industry of the Skinner family with the support of Lu Chen and his father. He only got a small part of the manpower. Clarence sighed, but he had no intention of throne.
"Black market businessman~ I didn't expect him to move so quickly." Thinking of Morily, Lu Chen thought of the thief, and also understood why they hadn't come to find him during the time he came back. Obviously, Ulysses' exit from the middle of the game made them very busy.
"What, you know?" Kenny and Clarence were both a little surprised.
"Will there be others besides Morily, the number one businessman in the black market? And without him, there was only Ulysses. I didn't dare to be so sure that the Skinner family would die." The exchange was made public. Morily's affairs could not be hidden for long, and Lu Chen said it "gracefully".
"No wonder, then I'll go find him now, maybe I can get some resources back." Clarence looked up at Xingxing, as if calculating how much money he could extort.
"Uh~ Real estate may be, probably, it's mine. You have to leave the mines behind for me." The prince was going to rob the black market merchants, and it was fine if he even took his family to search. For the sake of his fiefdom development, Lu Chen could only helplessly miss the bottom.
"Look, I just said that this guy was giving advice behind the scenes. It's only a lot of time. The big family has been with him. The kingdom has only received the capital guarantee compensation. The worst thing is Ulysses. He could have made a lot of money, but unfortunately he was a few days earlier. Alas~ It's a typical case of being sold and counting money for people." Kenny couldn't help it, and lamented with his face covering his smile.
"Damn, you two guys. What about Beaumont? I have never seen him since I returned to the college camp. According to what Aviri said, he should have come back safely." He was fooled, but Lu Chen was a little happy because in this world with clear hierarchy, except for his wife and girls, Paine used to treat him like this, and Xiu is still a little restrained. Of course, it may be because of helping him, which made him a little shy.
"Don't worry, he didn't threaten him when he came back. He was expelled from the family by the remaining family members; and now there are a group of angry businessmen who cooperated with their family and finally suffered a lot." Kenny smiled sinisterly.
Of course, no one dared to move the members of the Skinner family who were taken in by Clarence. Then the others outside would become the targets of the cheated merchants' anger. That is to say, the greater the power of their family, the greater the revenge they suffered in the end. In the kingdom of humanity, Beaumont had almost no place to establish a foothold.
A former strong enemy disappeared silently, and Lu Chen did not feel much relaxed, because compared to the problem of the abyss passage, Finesh's former first merchant family was not even as good as a speck of dust. Then, reminding Clarence that the rebellious things of Skinner who were persuaded in the forest, Lu Chen slowly walked back to the ending banquet.
