Unparalleled Beast Soul

Chapter 250 Drodick

At night, the king's capital Dongcheng. 【】

As night fell, the street lamps on the side of the street were lit one by one, and the spar in the crystal lampshade radiated soft and bright light, spreading the light evenly to the ground.

The refreshing evening wind blows past, blowing the wisteria on the metal fence outside the villa next to it, swaying unceasingly, the faint fragrance of flowers drifts with the wind, and the sound of laughter spreads far into the deep corner through the glass.

This large white villa with a circular garden is the residence of Earl Magnus, and a dinner party for celebrities in the royal capital is being held in the magnificent hall of the villa.

For the nobles, participating in banquets and dances is as natural as eating and breathing. Gatherings are an indispensable existence in their lives, and countless transactions and conspiracies are often completed in one gathering.

The number of guests attending the party and the status of the guests fully reflect the strength and connections of the host.

Magnus Fox holds the title of earl. In Ugruli, the capital of the kingdom, there are countless nobles like him who have the title of nobility but no actual territory. There are many viscounts and earls, and they are not considered big men at all.

But he was able to easily invite many high-ranking officials and nobles who held power to his home, and there were many veterans among them.

This is because he has another identity as the first deacon of the Ugru General Business Association.

"The background of the Ugru General Chamber of Commerce is relatively complicated. The royal family, the temple, the military, and the mercenary union all have interests represented in it. Earl Magnus Fox is their front-end figure. There is absolutely no problem with their reputation... "

In the corner of the rest area on one side of the hall, Corinna said softly to Leon: "If you need to buy any necessary supplies in the future, you can use him to help."

During the day, after the two of them had lunch at the Noble Restaurant, they went for a walk around the street in the afternoon.

In a tailor shop, Corinna bought a set of purple evening gowns, repacked Leon from head to toe, and then attended the dinner at Earl Magnus's house.

This is the first time she has publicly appeared in the upper class social circle with her male companion. Corinna obviously intends to let others know and accept Leon's existence, and at the same time use her personal connections to help Leon.

For example, Magnus, who was the host of the banquet, was only a small earl, but his status as the head of the Ugru General Business Association was enough to make him the focus of many people's attention.

And his mansion is big enough and luxurious enough, the hall on the first floor can easily accommodate hundreds of people, and there are small restaurants, dance floors and rest areas on both sides.

On the small stage next to the stairs, a group of musicians played elegant and melodious music, driving the atmosphere of the dinner.

Being able to get acquainted with such a person is of course very beneficial to Leon. In the future, the expansion and development of Thrall Territory will require dealing with this huge business association with an unfathomable background.

At the beginning, Corinna was a little worried that Leon would not adapt to this kind of social occasion, but it turned out that Leon had no problem with socializing in the upper class at all, and his speech and behavior were no worse than those of the regular partygoers.

This surprised many people, some of them had heard Leon's name more or less, especially because of Corinna's relationship, various things about Leon were circulated in small circles.

In the eyes of these people, Leon was just a small lord of the lower clan who climbed up from the backcountry. He did not know what method he used to win Corinna's favor. Is an upstart.

So they all went to Corinna's male partner with a joke mentality, and they planned to embarrass Leon a little bit with a dark psychology.

But Leon's performance is faultless, he is tall, majestic and polite, no matter who he is facing, he is neither overbearing nor humble, and he is full of aristocratic demeanor.

Corinna was also very surprised by Leon's performance. She found that the longer she spent with Leon, the more she felt that she didn't know enough about him.

There seems to be a mysterious aura about Leon, which makes people involuntarily want to dig out its hidden secrets.

Corinna didn't know that in his original world, Leon had established a business group from scratch. He had dealt with countless dignitaries and wealthy families, and he was extremely expert in socializing.

The way of communication of the Beamon nobles was learned from the human race. In Leon, this kind of gathering can only be said to be ordinary, and it is definitely a joke to try to stump him.

In addition, Leon also has a very important social weapon, which is the best cigar from Salling.

As a unique specialty of Saarling, cigars were introduced to Ugru very early and quickly became popular in the noble circles. However, due to the small number, only a few nobles can often enjoy them.

The thick, hand-rolled cigars are packed in an exquisite sterling silver cigarette case, with the emblem of Salling on the box shining brightly, and the hand-engraved word "Extra Premium" clearly shows its preciousness.

Such premium cigars cannot be bought in the market at all. Leon took them out as a small gift for the meeting, and quickly won the favor and approval of many people.

Although these favors and approvals have no effect on Leon, because his center of gravity is always in the Southwest Province, which is too far away from Ugru.

But it doesn't hurt to be able to recognize these powerful people, and he is still with Corinna now.

Of course, not everyone liked Leon's performance. At this banquet, many young knights and nobles were Corinna's admirers. It's not bad to be able to hold back your jealousy and anger.

And Leon didn't want to show off when he attended the party for the first time, so he felt that the heat was almost ready, so he hid in a corner with Corinna to rest, and at the same time avoided those jealous eyes.

The dinner didn't last long, and the well-trained attendants quickly removed the tables and drinks, and placed rows of soft chairs in the hall, turning the hall into a conference hall.

Leon was refreshed, and the real good show of the night was finally coming.

So many celebrities and noble knights from the royal capital gathered here at night, not just for chatting and dancing.

If it was only the status of Earl Magnus, it would not have such a great appeal. What really attracted these dignitaries was the small auction held in his mansion every month.

Earl Magnus is in charge of the Ugru General Chamber of Commerce, and the resources he can control are naturally huge. The Chamber of Commerce itself regularly holds large-scale auctions, and even controls part of the black market transactions.

But the Earl's own auction house is very different. It only serves a certain group of people. Without an invitation letter, it is impossible to step through this threshold, which distinguishes it from ordinary auctions.

The auction items in the evening are all carefully selected high-quality goods, which have been specially appraised by the business association to ensure that they are worth the money, and all the auction items have a clean source and can be checked, so it will not be a problem to display them in front of people.

At the same time, half of the profits from the auction will be used for charitable relief, which is one of the reasons why it has attracted people's attention.

Most of the nobles want to have a good reputation, even on the surface, it is a kind of glory, so Earl Magnus's private night auction is very famous in the noble circle of the royal capital, and it has been very popular for many years .

Originally, as Leon, he was not eligible to participate in the auction. It was of course Corinna's face that he was able to qualify for an auction.

Originally, Leon didn't have much interest in such an auction house, but Corinna told him that the auction items are not limited to luxury goods for nobles, but also include magic weapons, spell accessories and even inherited soul cores. Many of them come from the secret realm of the sanctuary.

That's why Leon was aroused. Even if he has limited financial resources and can only watch from the sidelines, it is necessary to understand.

The musicians' small stage next to the stairs in the hall turned into an auction table. The guests sat down according to their respective numbers, and Earl Magnus stepped onto the auction table.

This young nobleman has the shrewdness and cunning of more than half of the fox descendants. His reputation for being good at business has even spread to the human country. A large part of the material trade.

"Gentlemen and ladies, welcome to tonight's night auction. I think everyone should be familiar with me, so I won't introduce myself, let's give you the first lot first."

It's a very concise and straightforward opening, but it's very appropriate, and everyone is not here to listen to him talking nonsense.

A beautiful maid walked onto the stage holding a silver plate, and Earl Magnus introduced: "Our first lot is an ancient water magic crystal from the ruins of the secret realm of the sanctuary. Its grade is five. Grade, the lowest starting price is [-] gold coins."

This magic crystal is the size of an egg, with many facets polished on its silver-white surface, refracting bright crystal light under the light, and the most special thing is that there is a faint white mist around it. It adds a bit of mystery to it.

The magic crystal of the water system is often used in jewelry making, because it often has the effect of beautifying and moisturizing when worn on the body, so it is very popular with ladies.

Earl Magnus's move was really extraordinary. When it came up, it was the starting price of [-] gold coins for the fifth-level sanctuary magic crystal. Many ladies straightened their backs and stared at the lot on the stage with bright eyes.

"One million gold coins"

"One million gold coins"

...

The price rose rapidly. For these wealthy nobles, money was just a number. Hundreds of years of inheritance history allowed them to possess unimaginable wealth, and they could easily spend gold coins that ordinary people could not accumulate in their lifetime.

This made Leon clearly go to the other side of Beamon Kingdom.
