Chapter 23 Long Talk
On the carriage to Edinburgh, Anthony was talking with Earl Silvio and his son, the last important conversation before officially entering the Hilton family.

"Mr. Anthony, thank you for choosing the Hilton family. There is still a long distance from here to Edinburgh. How about taking this time to introduce you to the rights and treatment of the Hilton family's guests?" Now that Anthony's guest or guest has been preliminarily determined Count Silvio also used the more formal "Sir" to address Anthony in terms of his status as a consecrator.

Anthony waved his hand and said, "It's not urgent. Don't you want to know why I chose the Hilton family instead of Earl Bearzot?"

"Oh, why?" the count asked cooperatively.Of course, he did want to know why.

Anthony lifted the curtain of the carriage window with one hand, looked towards the direction of the town, sighed leisurely, and said, "Although I was born in a noble family, I should be very different from ordinary nobles. My grandfather From the splitting of the main family, to the birth of my father, and then to my coming into this world. Our lineage has always been a single pass."

What he said seemed a bit out of place, but the earl and his son just listened quietly without speaking.

Anthony continued: "The advantage of a single pass is that our family does not have as many intrigues and struggles for power and profit as ordinary noble families. The relationship between the family is very harmonious, and the feelings are also very harmonious. From the books and other people's mouths. I have never experienced the cold and even bloody battles between brothers.

"During this period of time, the two earls have talked with me a lot in public and privately, and they all hope that I can serve in your respective families. The promised rewards and rights are quite generous. To tell you the truth, Earl, Bear The conditions promised by Earl Zouter are even more generous."

Count Silvio was anxious and was about to explain.Anthony slightly raised his hand and said, "Don't worry, count, I don't mean anything else. In fact, you should all be very clear that these things don't mean much to me. It's the same as the last time I was in Hengling City. There was one big difference between the two silver fighters I met: age.

"I am much younger than them, or the vast majority of silver fighters. This means that I have a longer time to grow. Of course, those external things can also help in growth. But I am not humble enough to say , With my strength, where can I not get these things? What I need is an environment that is conducive to the development of my strength. At the very least, it can't be reversed to form an obstacle to my growth.

"Since I receive a salary from others, I naturally have to do things for others. And the enhancement of my own strength is also of great benefit to the boss I serve. But self-cultivation takes time, and dealing with the boss's affairs also requires distraction. , which of these two aspects is more important, the two sides may not be able to maintain a consistent view.

"But this is exactly what I value most.

"Earl Bearzot's family already has an Alfredo silver fighter guest. If I also enter it, I am afraid that there will be a lot of friction in getting along with Mr. Alfredo in the future. And Earl Bearzot and I Talked many times, but never mentioned this issue.

"In the Hilton family, there is also a silver fighter. According to Viscount Owen, he is the previous patriarch of the noble family, so he can't be regarded as a guest. There should be no problems in this regard. This is one of them.

"The second point is also the most important point. In this crisis of my Bruce family, Viscount Owen's handling method made me quite fond of it. I know that the Earl made a special trip to our remote town for this matter. I am worried about the viscount's ability to handle affairs. But what I want to say is that if the earl is responsible for the whole process, I may choose the Hilton family in the end. However, this favor score may be greatly reduced."

Hearing the old man's words, the count glanced sideways at his son who was blushing with excitement, feeling a lot in his heart for a moment.

Anthony's words were rambling, which sounded a bit messy.But the earl was so sophisticated that he could easily hear what he meant.

He compiled a long essay, which can be summed up in one sentence: emphasizing feelings, not interests.

In fact, the two earls have always ignored what Anthony's age means to himself.They all start from the perspective of their own family, and calculate what kind of benefits this new star of the empire with great potential can bring to their family.But for Anthony, what does he get for playing for his family?property?Various conveniences in cultivation?

Anthony's "disregarding profits" does not mean that these "external objects" are not important, but that they do not need to be considered.As Anthony said, with his strength and potential, where can't these things be obtained.Even if he served a grand duke, or even the royal family, he would be treated like a guest of honor.Can the so-called "external objects" be less?
There is no need to think about the benefits, and he doesn't need to worry too much at this stage.Then, he can have other demands.For example, comfortable living environment, cultivation conditions, etc.

The battles among the nobles and the battles among the various factions within the family are inevitable, and Anthony can't even think about being alone; and when he gets on the ship of the Hilton family, he must contribute to the continuous advancement of the ship.These are all meanings that need not be stated.But how to grasp the speed is impossible to predict now.The only thing that can be glimpsed and used as a guess is human character.

In dealing with the crisis of the Bruce family, according to the original intention of the earl, it is to use the connections and strength of the Hilton family to solve the problem within the scope of the county.In any case, Earl Bearzot should not be allowed to notice and intervene anyway.

This method of handling is actually that Hilton wants to eat alone and does not give Earl Bearzot any chance.For the Hilton family, it is undoubtedly the best choice.

However, this is not the case for the Bruce family.

Not to mention that the members of the direct line of the Bruce family are still controlled by the Franciscoli family. Even if the Hilton family is powerful, it is difficult to do anything.The most important thing is that behind the Franciscoli family is Earl Bearzot, an earl power not inferior to the Hilton family.Regardless of whether it was for real interests or for the face of the nobles, it was impossible for Earl Bearzot to let it go after this incident.From now on, the Bruce family will not be able to live a stable life.

Such a result is definitely not what Anthony wants.

According to Owen's method, let Earl Bearzot personally take action to clean up his forces, and the matter was successfully resolved without leaving any future troubles.

It is clear at a glance which of the two methods is better.

Count Silvio couldn't help sighing, this matter was really done by his son.In fact, an old fox like Earl should not have such a big omission in his grasp of people's hearts.It's just that he was a little too young to see the IQ and temperament of the 17-year-old Anthony, and he was always worried about being cut off by Earl Bearzot, so he inevitably acted a little eager for quick success.

Fortunately, in the end, Anthony was successfully pulled into the chariot of the Hilton family.

However, we will spend a long time together in the future, so we must pay attention.Anthony's words are not only a declaration, but also a warning.If the Hilton family still only cares about their own calculations, they will ignore Anthony's interests and feelings.Then, the fate of the two parties may not last long.

In the final analysis, the relationship between the two parties is like young men and women in communication, what matters is your love and my willingness.If one party feels uncomfortable at any time, the relationship can be terminated at any time.Therefore, if such calculations as the count happen again in the future and Anthony finds out, there is no guarantee that this high-level home buyer who has finally been hired back will not be pissed off.
