Extreme Knight

  The sun was setting and the sky was getting dark, but there was one place in Asai City that didn't fall into darkness because of the night, and that was the wealthy district.

  The beautifully decorated, magnificent carriages, all showing noble tastes, led by the lanterns, headed for the most dazzling place in Asai City, and that place was the City Lord's Mansion.

  Tonight, the city lord's mansion is brightly lit, as bright as day, and a series of sesame oil lanterns are hung high, illuminating the entire city lord's mansion without any blind spots.

  When Xiao En and his party arrived at the City Lord's Mansion in three carriages, the first thing they saw was the gorgeous carriages in the mansion's square dedicated to parking carriages.

Different styles, different styles, but without exception, they are all extremely exquisite and luxurious, inlaid with gold and jade, and some are also inlaid with luminous pearls. It is no different from Xiao En's previous life showing off his wealth, but the previous life was all kinds of luxury cars. In this life, there are all kinds of luxurious carriages.

   "Look, that's the Campbell family's carriage!"

   "Campbell family? That family in Aser City that can be ranked in the top ten?"

   "Ranked in the top ten? When is this old calendar? There are only nine major families in Asai City now."

   "Nine big families? That's right, after all, the Adams family has already... I didn't expect that the Campbell family would have the last laugh!"

   "It can only be said that this family hides deep enough. The Adams family with apprentice knights sitting in the town has been destroyed by this family. This guy's background is probably the same among the nine major families..."

   "Hush, keep your voice down, such words are taboo..."

The carriages of the Campbell family are naturally not refined. In addition to showing off their wealth, there is a circular family crest inlaid on the carriages. Therefore, when the three carriages parked in the square, they immediately attracted many people. look.

   "All of the Campbell family, please follow me!"

Xiao En and the others didn't wait long, and immediately a middle-aged man who was wearing a decent housekeeper's uniform, who looked like a high-ranking man in the city lord's mansion, stepped forward and personally led the way for Xiao En and his party. Less envious glances.

  Families of different grades have different guides.

Ordinary rich merchant families are usually led by ordinary servants of the City Lord's Mansion, while the slightly famous wealthy merchant families will be led by servants with higher status among the servants, and families like the Campbell family who can rank in the forefront of Aser City , the guide is personally led by the steward of the city lord's mansion. This kind of treatment is already the highest standard, so it attracts the envious eyes of a group of people.

   Led by the middle-aged butler, the Campbell family was brought into a huge banquet hall.

  In the hall, there are long tables paved with white tablecloths, with all kinds of exquisite pastries and red wines of various years.

   At this time, there are already many people in the banquet hall. These people are dressed luxuriously and luxuriously, and behave elegantly. They are talking with each other, showing the style of the upper class.

"please!"

   After making an invitation gesture to Sean and his party, and bowing, the middle-aged housekeeper turned and left, while Sean and his party, led by Patriarch Brod, walked into this banquet hall.

  As soon as they entered the banquet hall, they immediately attracted the attention of many people in the banquet hall. As the family that can be ranked in the forefront of Aser City, the Campbell family is naturally very prestigious in the upper circle of Aser City.

   "Long time no see, Patriarch Brad!"

"haven't seen you for a long time."

Immediately, several enthusiastic middle-aged people came forward and greeted Brod, the owner of the house. Brod was already familiar with this kind of scene. He took a crystal glass full of red wine from a servant's tray, and The visitor clinked a glass and started a friendly conversation.

And the other members of the Campbell family also contacted their acquaintances, especially the cousins ​​of Sean, who stayed away from Sean at the first time. In the end, Sean found out embarrassingly. , a group of Campbell's family, only him and the little girl Lily, still standing there awkwardly.

  The former Sean rarely attended such dinner parties, so he didn't have any acquaintances.

Every time I meet this kind of dinner party, I just shirk it. This time, Sean originally wanted to shirk it, but he was directly rejected by the head of the family, Brod. Finally, there was an apprentice knight in the family. At this time, If he doesn't show it and strive for the best interests of the family, then he is not a successful businessman.

  Although he was standing there with the little girl Lily, he should be the only one who was embarrassed, because in such a short time, the little girl already had her own goal, and her goal was of course the delicate pastries on the dining table.

   Seeing this, Sean simply joined the little girl Lily in the team tasting pastries.

   Not to mention, these pastries are very good. Sean can see that many of them are ordered directly from some time-honored shops in the city, while some are directly made by pastry masters.

  Time passed slowly, and there were more and more people in the banquet hall. The unsociable combination of Sean and the little girl Lily seemed a bit independent in this banquet hall where everyone was busy with socializing.

  However, Sean can't help it. In this banquet hall, he really has no acquaintances. As for brazenly breaking into other people's circles, Sean can't hold back that face.

   Fortunately, this embarrassment did not last long, because the main drama began soon.

  Following a middle-aged man wearing a purple aristocratic suit with a gold aristocratic badge hanging on his chest, surrounded by several luxuriously dressed men and women, he walked into the banquet hall, and the banquet hall fell into silence.

   This man is none other than Orlando Joyce, the Baron of Aser City, who is also the owner of the entire Aser City.

   "Thank you for coming to the dinner hosted by the Joyce family. I'm Orlando Joyce. I hope you all had a great evening!"

  Orlando Joyce walked to the front of the hall, glanced over the guests, and then slowly spoke.

   "The city lord is polite."

   "The baron is too far-fetched, and it is our blessing to be invited to the dinner."

   A group of guests are flattered.

In front of this city lord, even the powerful family lords who were talking and laughing just now could not help but weaken their momentum and seemed a lot more cautious. However, these are not what Xiao En cares about. What really concerns him is the city lord Orlando just now. Joyce's gaze stayed on himself.

  Although it was only for a moment, the time can be described as extremely short, but it did stay.

If it was an ordinary person, he would definitely feel that this was just an illusion, but Xiao En is no longer an ordinary person. He has become an apprentice knight, and his five senses are so keen that no subtleties can escape his insight. I stayed on myself.

   This puzzled him very much.

It stands to reason that, as the lord of a city, the other party should not pay special attention to a young man like Sean. Even if Sean has the title of the future heir of the Campbell family, he should not attract the attention of the other party, but the other party pays attention to him up.

   This had to make him suspect that the other party noticed him for some other reason.

  In the following time, the banquet continued, but soon, Orlando Joyce, the city lord, disappeared in the banquet hall, and disappeared with him, as well as the heads of several other major families and core members of the family.

  The Spring Festival Gala is a celebration for ordinary rich merchants to meet the city lord and other big figures, but for big powers in the city like the Campbell family, it is a time to distribute benefits.

   Such as which family runs the ranch in which area.

   Such as the iron ore on which mountain is mined by which family.

   Another example is that the family is responsible for running the extremely profitable business in the city.

In short, these are all distributions that are actually related to the interests of the major families, and these distributions will be finalized on this night. It can be said that the division of interests at the annual Spring Festival dinner can already determine the status of a family to a large extent. The amount of annual income.

  In a wide conference hall not far from the banquet hall, the top ten families, no, they can only be regarded as nine families now, and they were arranged to sit in the corresponding seats.

   And this seat is also very particular. The stronger the family, the higher the seat will be, and vice versa.

  The seat of the Campbell family was arranged in a relatively rear position. Obviously, the strength of the Campbell family is relatively weak among the nine major families.

  If it was the previous years, Broad, the head of the Campbell family, would definitely be a little nervous at this time. After all, it is related to the vital interests of the family. However, this time he looked calm because of the two standing behind him.

  One of them is a young girl, she is wearing a purple evening gown, she has a slim figure, it is Yuna.

  The other person was a young man in luxurious clothes, and it was Xiao En.

  One of the two has an outstanding business acumen, and the other is a powerful trainee knight. He does not believe that this time, they will not be able to win satisfactory benefits.

   Standing behind Brod, Sean is also looking at the other eight families, to be precise, the people standing behind the heads of the eight families.

  Most of these people are strong and sturdy, with radiant eyes. One can tell at a glance that they are masters who have practiced chivalry for many years. Some of them are extremely energetic, and they may be apprentice knights like him.

   "What's up with Brod?"

   While Sean was looking at these people, these people were also looking at Sean and Yuna.

  The Campbell family was uncharacteristically this time, instead of bringing the most powerful head of guard in the family, they brought a young girl and a young man instead. This abnormal behavior made the Patriarch, who had already matured like them, secretly put on guard.

  Especially some time ago, Adams fell into the hands of the Campbell family for no reason. Even now, they have not figured out how the Campbell family defeated the Adams family with apprentice knights.

   "Well, everyone is here, let's start now."

   Sitting on the main seat was the city lord Orlando Joyce. He looked at the other Patriarchs and spoke calmly.

  As soon as he said this, the Patriarchs of the Nine Great Families couldn't help but breathe a little harder. After all, it's time to decide the interests.
