Magic Industrial Age.

Chapter 89 87: Dinner (Subscription, monthly ticket)

The carriage from the Mage Tower naturally has its own magical features.

Especially when driving on the road outside the city, there are many potholes, but a strange force appears under the wheels.
The carriage was lifted up so that it was as if it were walking on flat ground no matter where it went. Not only was the speed fast, but there was also no bumps at all.

Naturally, it would not affect the conversation in the carriage.

In response to Mrs. Linda's warning, Douglas Hill just paused slightly and then gave an exaggerated smile.

"Mrs. Linda, I'm just going to a party and meet this popular young man in Oakland. Why should I be so alert?"

Mrs. Linda also laughed, but her smile was cold: "Douglas, there are no outsiders here, so don't put on your ridiculous disguise, it's really disgusting!"

"As for you, you never do anything without profit. I don't believe you just want to get to know someone!"

The exaggerated smile on Douglas's face stiffened and withered, his eyes became cold: "I didn't expect that you would think so much about him?

I'm curious, is this your personal action, or is this the position of your Ancient Spirit Mage Tower?"

Mrs. Linda asked, “Is there a difference?”

"The difference is huge. If it is your personal behavior, I can ignore you. Anyway, there are many second-level potion masters!

But if it is the position of your Ancient Spirit Mage Tower, then I will be a little bit cautious, just a little bit!"

Having said this, Douglas laughed again, his smile was full of malice, like a little devil who liked to cause trouble.

But after hearing his words, Mrs. Linda did not retreat, but smiled even more beautifully.

She asked, "Is it really just that little?"

Before Douglas could speak, she added, "I will tell my boss about this conversation, so Douglas, you better be careful when answering!"

At this moment, the smile on Douglas' face froze. He gradually restrained his expression, and his eyes became more serious.

After thinking for a moment, he said, "Are you really going to do this for a bastard child?"

Madam Linda spoke without hesitation: "This illegitimate child you mentioned brought a complete corpse of a fire demon and the remains of a snake monster that was a descendant of Leviathan to my Ancient Spirit Mage Tower.
There is also a favor from a fourth-level strongman in the Church of the Sun, and an income of thousands of gold tyres!"

"That's it, and it's only now. Our cooperation is still ongoing. It's hard to say if there will be any surprises in the future!"

"Douglas, tell me, if you can achieve this, will the person above you treat you as a guest of honor?"

Douglas finally stopped talking, his face changing from gloomy to bright. Finally, he said angrily: "But the boy you are protecting is not a decent one!"

"Lilia's research project was clearly one that I valued. I supported it despite all the opposition. I gave her so many advantages. He actually took my achievements. Isn't that too much?"

"As expected, I knew you would not do anything without profit!"

Mrs. Linda had an expression that said, "I knew it would be like this." She relaxed and said, "There is something I need to explain to you.

The idea for the project was provided by Luo Yi, the preliminary design was also provided by Luo Yi, and the research and development funds were also provided by Luo Yi. When Lilia submitted the paper, the finished product was already produced. "

"So, some things, if they are not yours, they are not yours. It is not good to be too greedy."

Seeing Douglas getting furious, Mrs. Linda added, "But from what I know about Roy, he is a person who is willing to share."

"Douglas, if I were you, I'd prefer to have a good chat with him."

Douglas narrowed his eyes slightly: "You mean?"

"That's all I can say. What happens next is up to you!"

At this point in the conversation, Mrs. Linda had lost interest in continuing. She stopped the carriage, walked down alone, and got back into her own carriage.

There was another person sitting in her carriage, with a slender figure, deep facial features, and a strong temperament.

His eyes became even more fierce, and there was a faint murderous intent emanating from him. Even if he was just sitting there, he was intimidating.

Only after Mrs. Linda got on the car did he soften his expression and even stood up to help Mrs. Linda to her seat.

Seeing that Mrs. Linda seemed a little tired, he even helped rub her temples.

The sound of two people talking could also be heard in the carriage.

"But is the knocking done?"

"more or less!"

"Do you want me to go and scare him? If I show up, he won't dare to say a word."

"That's too much. It's just right now, just right!"

Linda said this, raised her hand again, held the other's calloused palm, sighed, and said: "The atmosphere in Oakland City is not right, the fight between the two is about to become fierce.

We still need to keep a certain distance!"

……

Prosvence Manor. The manor had changed a lot at this time. The bright magic lights illuminated every corner, so that the whole manor was shrouded in glory.

You know, there is no magic energy pool in Prosvang Manor, so these magic crystal lamps are powered by magic crystals, and the cost is not a small amount.

Then the red carpet extended directly to the side of the road, and the grass on both sides was full of flowers.

In this early spring season, the chilly weather creates an atmosphere of colorful flowers.

Needless to say, this is something that can only be done with magic.

Each carriage will stop in front of the red carpet, and the guests will enter the manor along the red carpet.

The butler on the side will lead the coachman into the parking lot, and after parking the carriage, they will also be taken to the place where the servants have their meals.

The stingy nobles naturally wouldn't care whether the drivers had dinner or not, but the wealthy ones would make arrangements for the drivers as well.

The host may even give some tips to completely eliminate the resentment of waiting.

At the gate of the manor, Butler Hoover and Maruna Marquis were standing there welcoming guests.

In this world, there is no logic for the host to stand at the door to welcome guests. They usually hold their own status and come on stage last to announce the start of the banquet.

Therefore, the task of welcoming guests is mostly done by the butler.

Hoover behaved most appropriately here, and his every move fully demonstrated the demeanor of a butler of the Millennium Earl's family.

Maruna Marquez is a little worse, after all, he is not a professional, but this time the invitation list was drawn up by him and Hoover, so he can still fill in the gaps.

Moreover, he had to greet the factory owners who wanted to sign contracts here, and he also had his own things to do.

The three people from the Greenman family arrived earlier, and they didn't have their own carriage, so they could only rent one by scrambling together some money.

After getting off the carriage, they felt like they had stepped into a fairy tale world and their eyes were unable to take it all in.

They came for a special purpose and were led by Maruna into the manor.

Across the manor gate was a spacious lawn with a bonfire burning and a skinned lamb on it.

There is a chef busy at the side, roasting the meat until it is golden and crispy, with fat dripping and the aroma of meat wafting in the air.

There was also a long table covered with silk cloth inlaid with gold thread, and various silver plates were filled with colorful, fragrant and delicious food, fruits and snacks.

Obviously, this dinner was a buffet, and you could take whatever you wanted to eat.

There are also well-trained maids carrying trays and shuttling around everywhere, offering all kinds of expensive drinks, which can be drunk at will as long as you wave your hand.

Continue forward, and before you enter the main gate, you will hear melodious music.

That was not the music played by the magic phonograph, but a specially invited band. Their appearance fee was not low and it was also a big expense.

However, before she even stepped in, Mira Greenman, who was dressed like a noble lady, was attracted by the scene on the right.

There, there was covered with black cloth, so the specific situation could not be seen.

But the red flames were so eye-catching even under the magic light, and there was even a sense of scorching heat coming from them.

After a little hesitation, she asked, "Mr. Maruna, what's going on over there?"

Maruna turned his head and glanced at Mira Greenman, but he didn’t put on airs, and said, “Over there, it’s a new type of magic energy machine.

Most of the people who came this time were factory owners, so Young Master Luo Yi set up a special display area. If you are interested, you can go and have a look."

"I see!"

In just a sentence or two, they had already walked into the hall of the manor, a huge space that could accommodate hundreds of people.

The marble is so shiny, the crystal lamps are so gorgeous, the aroma of food is so tempting, and there are sofas around to rest.
There were men and women singing and dancing on the dance floor, and an atmosphere of decadence and decadence echoed in the hall.

It was still early, so not many guests had come, but there were some.

Some of them were dancing gracefully on the dance floor, while others gathered in groups of two or three, talking loudly. From time to time, laughter could be heard, attracting everyone's attention.

In such a situation, the three members of the Greenman family seemed a little at a loss. Maruna could understand them, so he took them to a remote corner and let them sit there.

Eat first and serve yourself. If you want to drink, you can also call the maid. If you want to talk to others, you can also try it.

However, it is hard to say how many people would be willing to pay attention to them in such an occasion.

After giving the instructions, Maruna no longer paid any attention to them. He had done what he was supposed to do, and there were still many things to do later, so he didn't have time to deal with them here.

On the other side, on the second floor of the manor, in the study, Luo Yi was naturally not idle either!

　The high order is 460, and the average order is 430, which is almost the same as the editor's prediction. I will continue to work hard...
