I Am a Nobleman in England

Chapter 50: Moving Ahead in the Storm

The weather in the UK is always so changeable, the sky is clear one second, and the next second is covered with dark clouds and pouring rain.

There is an idiom called "three changes in one day", and the weather in Britain is not only "three changes in one day", it is simply not enough for "five changes" and "eight changes"! The so-called "sunrise in the east and rain in the west, the road is sunny but sunny" is too common.

The sky in the afternoon was blue, and the bright sun seemed to be just a misunderstanding. Suddenly, the sky was covered with dark clouds, like a canopy, covering the sky, and the eyes were full of gray darkness. Under the clamor of lightning and thunder, lightning bolts tore through the sky like the night, and the sound of thunder was shocking, and layers of torrential rain poured down.

The garden of the Boleyn Manor was already in chaos. The terrified flowers and plants had nowhere to hide and could only be baptized in the violent storm. However, the wind and rain were always merciless.

However, the storm will eventually pass, the dark clouds will still be driven away by the sun, and the bright sunshine is still waiting for people. . . . . .

Boom——

"Enter!"

The butler Paul opened the door and walked in. Looking at the tall count who was wearing a nightgown and his back was standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows in the living room outside the master bedroom, watching the storm outside the window, he thought of some pictures uncontrollably, and immediately realized I was a little ridiculous, smiled and put the black tea tray in my hand on the coffee table, and said in a soft voice: "Earl, the temperature has dropped a bit, let's drink some black tea."

"Yeah." Seeing the rain falling on the glass, quickly falling and converging, Arthur hummed softly, turned around and said, "I hate rainy days."

"It can't be helped, the weather in England is so unpredictable, and the heavy rain in spring and autumn will come at any time." The housekeeper Paul said with a smile while bending down to pick up the teapot and pour a cup of black tea into a cup.

Arthur sat on the sofa, took a sip of the steaming black tea from his teacup, looked at Paul, who was standing upright with his hands folded in front of him, and said, "Sit down, I just have something I want to ask."

"Thank you." Paul the housekeeper smiled and sat on the sofa opposite.

Arthur put down the teacup, leaned forward, and reached out to take the teapot to pour tea for Paul, but Paul hurriedly stopped him, "Count, I'll do it myself."

Without reluctance, Arthur watched Paul pour the black tea, took a sip of it, and then leaned lazily on the sofa and asked, "Have you got in touch with the autumn fair?"

"Yes, the arrangements have been made. Tomorrow at 10 o'clock in the morning, you will preside over the opening, and then there will be various entertainment activities. I have also contacted the school. They welcome your kindness, Earl, and asked me to pass on theirs. gratitude."

Arthur shook his head and chuckled, "I don't know how much money we can raise yet. Just don't complain behind your back because there are too few funds."

"No matter how much, it is your heart. I think their thanks are very sincere."

"I hope so." Arthur smiled noncommittally, and continued to ask, "What about the news from the auction house?"

"I have already called. On Monday morning, Daweide Auction House will send someone to appraise the item, sign the consignment agreement, and take the item away. They happen to have an autumn auction in Hong Kong in October. They promise that if the item is good, It will be arranged for this autumn auction."

"Well, the antiques of the Celestial Dynasty can only be recognized and sought after in the Asian cultural circle. I think the result will definitely not disappoint me." Hearing this news, the smile on Arthur's face became very bright.

Especially the ones he bought from the outside this time, the pair of bottles, I believe that after blessing the aura of the long-established Earl Boleyn family, those collectors will flock to them, he has even thought about it How can you fool the people in the auction house? I believe that the people in the auction house will never let go of using the name of the noble earl to make a big fuss.

After all, the higher the auction price,

The commission of their auction house is also higher.

"Earl, Tom from the publishing house called and said that according to your request, two new employees have been recruited. I originally wanted you to make the decision to arrange a meeting time. However, it is inconvenient to disturb you before. Combined with your schedule , I arranged for you tomorrow afternoon, and they will rush over to meet you."

Arthur did not express any displeasure at the unauthorized arrangement of the housekeeper Paul. After all, Paul has been in charge of various affairs of the Boleyn family for decades. Whether it is experience or ability, it has been tested by time. His arrangement is definitely considered. most thoughtful.

"Yes. In fact, there was no need for them to make an extra trip. Things can be arranged on the phone, but since you have already arranged it, so be it. I also just saw that Tom recruited two people for the publishing house. What kind of talent."

Hearing what Arthur said, the butler Paul also heaved a sigh of relief. To be honest, although he had watched Arthur grow up and knew him very well, after this time he was injured, although he couldn't say that his temperament changed drastically, but The changes are also very obvious. I really want to feel like I grew up overnight as described on TV or in novels.

Mature, stable, and more assertive at the same time, having his own ideas in his heart, this is a happy and worrying thing for the housekeeper Paul. Being assertive means that the young earl will never like to be restrained , and he would not like someone to help him make decisions, especially at such an age, the inherent rebellion in his personality added some variables.

Therefore, now Paul is slowly adjusting his mentality to test and apply some changes of the Earl.

Whether it was looking for an auction house to auction off some antiques, or the mortgage loan that he had always worried about, he did not resolutely dictate the decision made by the young earl, because doing so would not only fail to solve the problem, but would instead cause the two to completely confront each other To put it bluntly, he is just a steward and serves the Boleyn family. Although he has a deep relationship with the old earl and the Boleyn family, and has won the trust and affection of the Boleyn family through loyalty and work, he always understands that Boleyn family Who is the real master of the Lin family.

The two chatted for a while, and Paul, the housekeeper, gave Arthur a detailed introduction to some of the situation and key people in Dunsford Village.

"Arthur, are you there..."

At this moment, a gentle call came from the inner bedroom, interrupting their conversation.

"I'm here, don't move, I'll come right away." Arthur hurriedly shouted in response, then looked at the smiling butler Paul who stood up and said, "That's it."

"Okay, Earl, then I won't bother you." The butler Paul said with a smile, before turning to leave, he said again: "Earl, can I bring you here for today's afternoon tea?"

"Well, it's for two, make it more delicate." Arthur nodded and ordered.

"Please don't worry, I will personally arrange for you and Miss Clark to spend a wonderful afternoon." Paul bowed gracefully with a warm smile on his face.

Arthur shook his head and chuckled, picked up the teapot and got a cup of black tea, picked it up, nodded to the housekeeper Paul, and walked to the bedroom with the black tea.
