Full-time insurance agent
Chapter 71 Meeting with the Mayor
In the central Queens District of York City, east of Burman Tower, next to the Church of Light is the Underwriters Association.
There are about 20 rooms on the basement floor of the association, which store most of the frequently used things, such as the robes of association members, some insurance contracts in white, yellow and black paper, and some less important ones. But consumables are consumed every day.
However, several weeks of intermittent and severe rainstorms have caused several quaint camphor wood boxes that should have been on the third floor of the tightly protected house to appear in two rooms on the first floor.
Now, these large camphor wood boxes sit quietly in the golden space in Fei Fei's mind.
Are the insurance company's security measures not safe enough? That doesn't exist. The association is not without thieves, and after every theft incident, the criminals are picked up by the Public Security Department.
Those criminals who can only be called minced meat fast, when they are placed in various squares for public display, often make the common people and nobles not eat the bloody barbecue for at least a month.
Before he had time to look through the ancient books in the camphor wood box, Feifei met old Henry in disguise in his living room.
Looking at the unnatural hood and the liquid dripping down the side seams of the hood, whether it was sweat or oil, Fei Fei felt nauseated.
"Uncle Henry, are you so anxious to come here to see me? Is it about the auction or something else?"
"Gudu, Gudu." Old Henry came back to his senses after drinking a cup of iced fruit tea, "This damn weather is too hot. I really hope that the Moon Goddess can stay in the dark for more time every time."
Seeing that the cup was filled with iced fruit tea again by Fei Fei, Old Henry took a bite of the fruit pulp and felt comfortable.
"Oh, it's not about the auction. The auction cannot be rushed. It will always take some time for some remote lords and giant businessmen from the free city states to get to York."
"I had an appointment with Lord Charles Hunter, the city magistrate of York. This greedy old man actually took his dirty lover and asked me to accompany him to visit the jewelry showroom in Burman Tower."
"This god-cursed worm, a pair of earrings is not enough to fill the gap of his greed. It was not until I paid for a robin-shaped sapphire brooch that I agreed to meet."
Fei Fei just listened carefully and did not comment on Old Henry's complaints.
"It can be seen from this, extraordinary, you have to be more careful on the battlefield on the dining table. I wonder if Hunter, this greedy skunk, will ask for more."
After calming down Old Henry's mood a little, we made an appointment to meet with him, and we went to meet the alderman, Viscount Charles Hunter, for a while.
In the evening, coachman Eddie Hubert took Fei Fei and Francis to Burman Tower. Old Henry had been waiting for a long time.
Unfortunately, Francis, who had a great longing for Burmanta's restaurant, was left behind in the carriage, enjoying every meal from the roadside vendors with Hubert.
Old Henry took Feifan and took the movable stairs to the upper middle floor and walked into a restaurant with the flavor of the Principality of Tar.
"The Principality of Tar has the most delicious horned beef in the continent, a fifth-level monster with combat power comparable to that of a great swordsman. It is very difficult to kill, let alone capture!"
Old Henry was trying to avoid the embarrassment of waiting for others and was looking for something to talk about.
"I dare say that old guy Charles Hunter came here just for the fifth-level horn beef, and it will never be because of you, extraordinary boy."
"I have been eating meat for more than sixty years, what kind of meat have I not eaten? How could it be for a horned ox, and it was a piece of meat from one of its legs."
Before Fei Fei finished sighing, he heard deafening laughter.
"Haha, haha, I'm sorry, the road may be slippery. It only rained for a quarter of an hour yesterday, but I didn't expect the road to be flooded. Also, gentlemen, are you waiting for me to have a delicious meal together?"
"Haha, hello, the noble Viscount Charles Hunter, your arrival really brightens up the entire Burman Tower!"
"I believe you must have heard of the name of Lord Viscount Charles Hunter. He is extraordinary."
"Lord Viscount, this is an intermediate underwriter from the Underwriters Association, and he is also an intermediate water magician from the Magicians Guild!"
"Oh? Lucky young boy, you must have won the favor of two gods while they were drunk!"
"Haha, please forgive me for being disrespectful, this is just a joke. I am the alderman Charles Hunter!"
Looking at the handed hand, Fei Fei took off the white gloves on his hand and took it.
It seems that the identity of an insurance agent did not arouse the interest of the Lord Viscount, but the dual profession, especially the identity of an intermediate magician, is the prerequisite for him to take the initiative to extend a hand of friendship.
"Good evening, His Excellency Viscount Charles, thank you very much for your visit. Please come with me!"
Under extraordinary guidance, the three of them came to the circular dining table in the center of the restaurant, surrounded by a half-height glass enclosure. The outside scene could be seen from the inside, but the inside could not be seen from the outside.
According to the noble's understanding, the meal took more than an hour from the pre-dinner prayer last night to the serving of the last dessert.
"Lord Viscount, I came from Sissel and am a personal knight of Baron Sissel. This time I want to buy a piece of land in the northern hills of York City as my own manor."
When Fei Fei talked about his status as a knight, Fei Fei clearly felt that the Viscount's eyes became brighter. Is it because of the resonance of being a member of the upper class, or because his status as a knight allows him to get a higher price?
"Sir Cordo, I'm glad that you can buy your own manor in York City, but as far as I know, the land you want to buy - the southern slope of the North Mountain. How should I put it? It can build ten manors the size of an earl. It’s too big.”
"Of course it is not small, but in the city of York, manors of all sizes are built in the fiefdom of the Grand Duke of York. Moreover, Sir Viscount, you have an unusual relationship with the Grand Duke. If you can't help it, I will have to give up!"
With the regretful tone and the gesture of clenching his hands in prayer, Viscount Charles Hunter was suddenly moved by the extraordinary sincerity.
However, the waiter beside Old Henry saw the Viscount's eyes fixed on the seven or eight rings on Fei Fei's hands.
"Of course there is a way, but it's a little difficult. After all, the Duke's Castle is built on the top of Beishan Mountain, which may have an impact on the famous nobles stationed in the castle."
"Of course, I can help eliminate the influence on the Duke, but I'm afraid I don't have the ability to do so at the Duke's Castle. After all, I am only the manager of the city, and York City belongs to the Duke."
Old fox, there are no new tricks over and over again. This is to make money for yourself in the name of others.
"I will pay 10% more gold coins than the market price to buy it, Lord Viscount."
"Yes." Viscount Charles Hunter nodded, "This is already a very reasonable price, but do we need to station the city guards and add a patrol route to Beishan for the air guards? These are all municipal matters. It’s something the office needs to consider!”
Well, as long as you have needs, it's not a problem as long as gold coins can solve it.
"So, Lord Viscount, what about 20%? This is the limit I can accept!"
Sighing and shaking his head, I will give up if you don't agree to it. Think about the hundreds and thousands of gold coins. Doesn't he look good?
"Don't be anxious, young sir. What if I say that the contract is not only stamped with the Duke's shield seal, but also His Majesty the King's golden dragon seal?"
Is this the greatest temptation? I really like this temptation. If the Duke's future is uncertain, even the new lord will have to accept the contract endorsed by the king.
"Thirty percent!"
"make a deal!"
The high-five ceremony among the nobles was completed between the old man and the young man, and a date for signing the contract was agreed upon, and both parties took their leave.
The two stood in front of the gate of Burman Tower, watching the alderman's carriage drive away.
"Do you know how many gold coins these cost? Boy."
"I have roughly calculated that it should not be beyond my ability to pay."
Looking at the young man next to him who spoke with great confidence, Old Henry felt something both familiar and unfamiliar.
After joining Francis and Feifan, they returned home and sat in the living room. Fatty called down the troll and Gu Lie.
The three of them watched as Fei Fei took out sheets of paper filled with various symbols one after another without making any noise. In the living room there was only the sound of the scraping of paper and the trace of the quill on the paper.
Finally, near midnight, the three stacks of papers that had been sorted were pushed in front of the three of them by Fei Fei.
"Gu Lie, these are the materials that need to be purchased to build the manor. Then you find an old bachelor who has built manors for nobles and hire them at a high price."
"Okay, sir, did today's meeting go well?" Gu Lie looked at Fei Fei and nodded, without further questioning, and reached out to take the detailed plan.
"I want to build an alchemy tower at the foot of the south slope. Francis, you go to the Alchemy Society tomorrow. No matter how many dinars you spend, I want to see an alchemy tower belonging to us as soon as possible!"
"Okay, sir!" Seeing that the first step of his dream was about to come true, the fat man was also really happy.
"As for you, Dosta, go to the slave market again and agree with the slave traders on a date to give it away."
"Yes, sir. Congratulations on finally taking the first step in your ideal!"
As the three of them took the mission plan and left, Fei Fei also returned to his bedroom, took a shower and went to bed.
The sound of "dang-dang" tapping on the glass sounded, and Feifan saw "Vivian's Messenger" standing on the table in front of the window sill.
The content of the letter was as calm as ever, including joy for the upcoming summer festival and happiness for being able to return home and enjoy the nearly three-month vacation.
Looking up at the night sky outside the window, the night sky that had just fallen from the heavy rain was clean and tidy, and the stars dotted with it were more brilliant and brilliant than before.
Starlight danced on Fei Fei's bare arms. For some reason, Fei Fei felt that this was some kind of communication, like a magical element.
Without thinking, a magic skill book appeared in Feifan's hand. Without a word, Feifan slapped the skill on the top of his head.
The skill book turned into pieces of starlight and disappeared before Feifan's eyes.
