Almighty Alchemist
Chapter 50 Lampa Clubhouse (Part 1)
When night fell, a carriage stopped at the Lampa clubhouse. A young nobleman stepped down from the carriage, and it was Xiu Yiglaer.
Lampa Clubhouse is a well-known top clubhouse in Royo City, which is only open to the upper class.
Xiu Yi looked up at the plaque above his head, and a charming smile flowed from the corner of his mouth.
He turned around and invited his "sister", Lilith, out of the carriage.
"Why do we have to come to this place? I don't understand, Sisser." Lilith asked, waving the small fan in her hand and holding her pleated skirt.
"My dear sister, if a family wants to rise, it is not enough to make money and buy and sell. Spending money is also an essential and important part. Unlike making money, spending money can allow us to quickly have more friends in this city. At the same time, learning how to spend money is a very important knowledge. Many times the biggest difference between nobles and upstarts is not how they make money, but how they spend it."
"It's amazing, as a woman, I don't think I have to think about these things."
"A good place to sell gold is also a place where good men gather, and that's exactly what you need."
"Don't be too anxious to marry your sister off."
The siblings were talking and walked into the Lampa Club arm in arm.
Xiu Yi casually rewarded the waiter with a Golden Witt, which was generous.
The decoration of the clubhouse is very luxurious, pagoda-shaped crystal chandeliers can be seen everywhere, the lamp holders are made of obsidian, and even the lamp caps are made of silver. The floor is made of very hard diamond rock, which can be used to refine hard rare metal diamonds, which are needed to make diamond puppets.
The walls around the clubhouse are covered with oil paintings from famous artists from all over the world, and the floor is covered with luxurious cashmere carpets. Royo City itself is not rich in cashmere, so these things must come in from the outside.
The entire Lampa Club has three floors, each floor besides the hall, there are two small meeting rooms, a conference hall, 12 VIP rooms and a common casino.
The male waiters in black tuxedos and white gloves are mainly responsible for the reception work outside, while in the clubhouse, some girls dressed in tricks are in charge of reception. Each is a beautiful girl no older than sixteen.
According to the rules of the Lampa club, the first floor is a place where anyone with money can come, the second floor requires a certain status, and the third floor can only be a place with real status and status in the city.
According to the current identities of the Dardanelles, they are eligible to enter the second floor to receive services. Lampa Club has already received information about the Dardanelles. After all, as much as 60% of the materials were purchased, and the handwriting even surpassed the imperial official.
When she came to a foreman in charge of reception, Xiu Yi took out a business card: "Heir of the Dardanelle family, Sissar Dardanelle, I have a service card from Mrs. Christine here."
The foreman got his business card and membership service card, and after reading it, he respectfully said, "Yes sir, I will arrange it for you. Do you need to go to the public entertainment hall or prepare a small room for you?"
"Public entertainment hall, I hope to make more friends there."
"Good sir."
Following the foreman to the public entertainment hall on the third floor of the clubhouse, Xiuyi took off her coat casually, and the waiter hung it up. He held Lilith's hand and entered the hall.
There were not many people in the gorgeous hall, some people were warming up in front of the fireplace, talking gossip, and some people were looking at the distant scenery from the window. In the farthest part, there are a few small tables where some people drink and talk, and there are maids beside them to provide them with the best service at any time.
In the wine glass is Tianshini, which the nobles love to drink. The bright red wine juice is crystal clear. Under the illumination of the lights, the chatting and laughing words of the nobles are reflected in Xiu Yi's eyes.
Some people saw Huey walk in and stopped talking.
The name Siserda Daniel has been very famous in Royo City recently, second only to Hugh Igleser. That grand ball made a lot of people's impression of this outstanding heir.
"Oh, Sisser, my friend, how come you are free to come to Lampa!" A man's call sounded in his ear.
A lean man strode towards Xiu Yi with open arms.
The vice chairman of Dodge Firm, O'Conman Dodge.
"Mr. Dodge, I'm very glad to meet you here. After I heard that Lampa Clubhouse is the most luxurious gold selling cave in Royo City, I couldn't help but want to come and have a look." Xiuyi greeted him with a smile.
O'Conman Dodge first made a gentlemanly bow to Lilith, and then took Huey's hand and said, "Oh, don't believe the rumors from the outside world. In fact, the Lampa Clubhouse is not the kind of place you imagined. You should have seen that this is a small place where everyone gathers freely when they have nothing to do. Yes, I admit that the decoration here is very luxurious, but that doesn't explain anything. We didn't come here for any enjoyment. This is just a circle. It's a circle where everyone contacts frequently and chats with each other. Everything here is fine. Feel free to ask for any service you want, but it is by no means a gold cave, but just a place for leisure. If you are after high-end enjoyment, I can introduce some other good places for you.”
"Oh no, I think it's good here. I just want to fit in as much as I can, actually."
"Then it's a good idea to come to Lampa. I can fully understand the idea of the Dardanelles trying to become a noble family, but there are some things that can't be rushed. Come on, boy, come with me, and I'll introduce you to some friends."
"Good Mr. Dodge."
"Call me O'Conman, it's more affectionate that way."
"Thank you so much."
"You're welcome." Mr. Dodge replied with a smile.
Under the guidance of Dodge, Xiu Yi quickly became familiar with the people here. The Viscount Ladour of the Bavarian family is also here. Perhaps because of his arrogance of noble origin, he did not show the same enthusiasm as Dodge, but he also welcomed Huey.
After getting to know each other for a while, everyone quickly took a liking to this young man who was born in a sea family, but was well-cultivated and polite in conversation. Xiu Yi performed very well in terms of etiquette. His gentle appearance and the support of the huge family behind him made some people willing to put down their airs and consider making friends with the young heir of the Dardanelle family.
"Master Dardanelle, how is your alchemy production going?" Viscount Ladour was more concerned about business matters.
"In fact, the first batch of goods has been completed." Huey quickly replied: "According to our agreement, you will have the priority in the selection of finished products, and we will give you the lowest price. I believe you will be interested in those products."
"Oh, yes, since I saw your scout bee that day, I believe that it is far more useful than simply bringing some money back." Hearing that the first batch of goods that needed to be made had been completed ahead of schedule, Viscount Ladour was relieved.
In this matter, Xiu Yi did his best. If he wanted to fully integrate into these upper-class nobles, he had to show some real talents.
"How about going to a game of cards?" proposed Mr. Dodge.
"Excellent." Xiu Yi had this in mind.
"Go ahead and play, I'll just sit here for a while." Lilith replied with a lazy face.
"I'll be right back," Huey said.
A card game similar to Stud is popular in the Lance Empire, called "Lance Card", which is said to have been invented by the Rose Monarch back then. Lance cards use seven cards to determine the victory. There are two open cards and five hidden cards. The number of people starts from three, and a maximum of six is allowed. Three cards are issued for the first time, and one card can be raised in each subsequent round. The Lampa clubhouse is not a big-money gold-selling place as outsiders think, but it is also impossible for small bets like the common people of the lower class to appear. Therefore, the minimum requirement for raising each round of the game here is not high, generally no less than 1 Gold Witte.
Don't underestimate these few Golden Witts. With a single hand, you can win or lose dozens of Golden Witts. If you are unlucky, it is not uncommon to count hundreds or thousands of Gold Witts in one night. But for the vast majority of guests here, it is not a traumatic thing.
When Dodge and Viscount Ladur brought Xiu Yi to the card room, Xiu Yi looked around.
There are four long tables and eight small square tables in the card hall of Lampa Clubhouse.
After scanning the hall, Xiu said to Dodge and Viscount Ladour, "How about we go to table 3?"
Dodge looked at it and said, "No problem, there aren't too many people there."
When they came to table 3, the dealer looked at Xiu Yi, who had an unfamiliar face, with confusion in his eyes.
Mr. Dodge said: "This is Sisar Dardanelle of the Dardanelle family. From today on, he will be a distinguished guest of your clubhouse."
"Yes sir." The dealer replied sensibly.
Two maids cleverly brought chairs for them.
"Let me introduce you." Radur said to Huey: "Lord Bulger, Director of the Resources Department of Royo City."
Lord Bulger was a bald old man with a pair of deep hooked noses that looked extremely sharp.
"Nice to meet you, Lord Bulger."
The other party said indifferently: "I've heard of you, the young heir of the newly emerged Dardanelle family. That night, two teenagers caused a sensation in Royo City at the same time."
"Yes, I have heard of the tragedy."
"I am shocked by the incompetence of the Imperial Law Office." Lord Bulger criticized his colleagues unceremoniously.
Radur went on to introduce the next one.
Mr. Ike Jeffrey, a rich and well-known local gentleman.
When the third place was introduced, Xiu Yi finally showed a trace of unknown excitement in his eyes.
It was a middle-aged man.
The man wore a blue coat, a white vest with a thick gold chain hanging from it, and brown trousers. His hair was very black, hanging low on his forehead and almost covering his eyebrows. In short, the man wanted to appear to be under forty, although he was obviously about fifty years old.
"This is Earl Strias, the warden of Spark Prison."
Xiu Yi saluted the other party and said respectfully, "It's a pleasure meeting you, Lord Strias."
"Nobody's happy to know me, boy. Nobody's happy to know me." The other repeated the sentence, lifting his haughty head.
