Chapter 146 The Marquise knows too much

"Thank you Baron Arnold for your help."

Teresa thanked her elegantly, her tone seemed a bit harsh. In her memory, this was the second time Ron had helped her.

"Miss Marquis, you don't have to be like this. You are a distinguished guest at the auction house, and we have the responsibility to protect your safety."

Ron smiled lightly and didn't seem to care.

‘Miss Marquis’?

Teresa felt uncomfortable when she heard this title.

"If Miss Marquis is not in a hurry to leave, would I be honored to be able to invite you to the mansion as a guest?"

After hearing this, Teresa became excited and did not show her joy. She kept her aristocratic demeanor and agreed.

After all, she was no longer the exiled 'sinner', but the noble daughter of a marquis in the kingdom.

When socializing outside, every word and deed represents the family's reputation.

Helping Teresa solve a small problem is just a piece of cake, and since I have a good relationship with her, there is no reason not to help.

Just as Ron was about to leave the venue, he felt that he had forgotten something and suddenly woke up. He turned to the people behind him and asked, "Where are Viscount Gordon and the others?"

At the same time, room No. 2 on the fourth floor.

Viscount Gordon asked the waiter: "Have they all left?"

"Yes, Lord Viscount."

"you sure?"

"Yes, Lord Viscount, I am absolutely certain."

Viscount Gordon still didn't move, his brows furrowed slightly, and Michelle next to him said helplessly: "Father, let's go out."

Hearing the urging words, Viscount Gordon glared at Michelle, pondered for a moment and then nodded and led the family out of the room, just in time to meet Egbert who came to pick them up.

"I'm very sorry, Lord Viscount. It was my negligence. I apologize to you and your family."

Viscount Gordon looked embarrassed and could only say something casually before changing the subject: "The auction hosted by Mr. Egbert was very exciting."

"You are exaggerating. My granddaughter hosted the second half better than I did."

"Oh? Miss Rosalind is Mr. Egbert your granddaughter?"

While the two of them were chatting, the matter of being stranded in the VIP room was kept away from them. Everything was so inconspicuous.

Ron didn't know what Viscount Gordon was thinking. If he knew it, he would only think that his worries were unnecessary.

Because Michelle had to prepare for promotion to the title of earl, Viscount Gordon and his family did not stay in the Arnold territory for long and returned to their own territory the next day.

As for the remaining matters after the auction, they were all left to Joyce and the others to deal with, and Ron didn't have to worry about it.

Except for a few individuals, the other businessmen and big business leaders who came to participate in the auction left the Arnold territory quickly after the auction ended.

Some businessmen and nobles who are not qualified to participate in the auction will hold banquets and invite them to ask about the inside story.

After just learning about some of the auction items, they became crazy with jealousy. Then they used their contacts to inquire about the admission qualifications of the auction so that they would not miss it next time.

Because of this, the unlimited supply of free special delicacies at the auction came into everyone's sight. VIPs on the first floor could hardly take pictures of any products. It was these special delicacies that they experienced the most.

This resulted in many foreign tourists coming to Miracle City for a long time to taste the unique food available here.

——

Baron's Mansion, Lord's Private Study.

"How many people are still here?"

Ron played with the disc pointer on his hand and asked casually.

Ahead, Egbert bowed and said: "Back to the lord, President Andre of the Adventurers Association and Gerald the Archmage left the territory this morning, and the team will be back in five days."

"In addition, there are the second prince, Duke Edris and Duke Padridge who have not left yet."

Egbert paused and continued: "The second prince doesn't know what's going on. The two Dukes would like to ask you to ask Master Hadey to forge the inheritance treasure for them. They are willing to pay a high price."

Duke Edris obtained the crystal mine, while Duke Padrich obtained the mithril. Both of them made their plans clear.

"I don't care about this matter. It's up to Hadyi to tell him what I say."

Ron stopped what he was doing. He narrowed his eyes slightly and had a flash of doubt. The two dukes directly supported the second prince at the auction, which made him feel that something was wrong.

"Yes, Lord Lord."

Egbert responded and then continued to report other things. Overall, the auction went smoothly with few major problems.

Only a few 'rats' appeared, but they were all cleaned up by Sig and others. Although they did not find out who was behind them, it was considered a deterrent to them.

In the east side yard, under the Mirark tree, several figures sat around the bluestone chessboard, watching Theresa and Joyce play chess.

The two are equally skilled at chess, and it's hard to tell who is better.

The others' chess skills were much poorer and they couldn't understand, so they started chatting.

While chatting, the topic turned to the treasure of the Balubek Kingdom at the auction-Saya's Song.

"By the way, Miss Theresa, can I ask you why you took that photo of Saya's Song?"

Rosalind expressed the doubts that remained in her heart. Theresa, who was playing chess, paused, then naturally held the chess piece between her two white and fat fingers and dropped it on the chess board.

Her posture was elegant, noble and restrained, she pursed her lips and said, "Actually, I don't want to hide it, but this matter is a bit unacceptable."

Teresa's words aroused Rosalind's curiosity even more, and even Joyce, who was playing against her, looked over.

Erin and Melitoya didn't think anything of it, they just listened normally.

"I want to be a Marquise."

Teresa's words shocked the two of them. Joyce thought for a moment and quickly figured out the key points. She nodded slightly and said: "You want to use 'Song of Shaye' to exchange conditions with His Majesty the King. This idea is very strange." Good, but not necessarily successful.”

"I know, but this is indeed an opportunity, and I don't want to give up." Theresa naturally knew that the rules would not be broken so easily.

Rosalind regained her composure and looked at Teresa with admiration.

Neither of them asked her why she had to become a Marquise. They knew that Teresa was the only daughter of Marquis Alfred.

At this time, Irene said: "You can give the Marquis another child. This is the case in my family. My parents have planned to give birth to a younger brother so that he can inherit the family's fruit shop."

The atmosphere at the scene suddenly became silent, like a haunted house late at night, quiet and scary.

Melitoya looked at Erin with wide eyes, expressing her inner shock as if she were seeing her for the first time.

Is this ‘your’ solution?

Finally, It was Teresa herself who broke the atmosphere. She asked: "Thank you Miss Irene for your suggestion. I will go back and ask my father. By the way, I haven't seen Miss Vivian for a long time. Has she left?"

"She opened a magic divination shop in the city, which was very popular among rich ladies and rarely lived in the mansion."

Rosalind followed Theresa's words and quickly moved away from the topic. She has many opportunities to interact with people and knows a lot of news, big and small.

"There is a very topical thing circulating in the city recently. The day before the auction, a spectacular scene of twelve rainbow bridges appeared at the Lucky Fountain. Was it Miss Teresa's fault?"

Rosalind said with a smile. Although she used questions, her tone was very affirmative. Don't underestimate her status in the business circle.

Teresa nodded and said: "It's me. Is that lucky fountain your work, Miss Rosalind? It has attracted many outsiders and experienced great tourist attractions."

"I'm just following the trend, it's not my fault alone. Among them, the comics drawn by Veronica have the greatest impact. By the way, have you read her "Rainbow Wish" and "Shadow in the Lake"?"

"I read the first book. Is the Lucky Fountain real?" Teresa's expression became unnatural and she hesitated for a moment and asked.

The change in her expression caught the eyes of Joyce and Rosalind, and they guessed a little bit in their hearts.

Rosalind considered her words and said: "It's just a means to attract foreign tourists. However, it was the first time that twelve rainbow bridges appeared. Others could only summon six rainbow bridges at most. This may indicate that special Miss Resa, your wish really comes true."

Blacksmith workshop.

The two dukes arrived here under the leadership of Egbert. From a distance, they saw two people sitting in a small pavilion next to the workshop, seemingly chatting about something.

Duke Edris and Duke Padrich looked at each other and walked over at the same time. By this time, they already knew very well that the other party was the person who took the photo of the 'Crystal Mine' or 'Mithril'.

Arriving in front of the small pavilion, the three of them stopped at the same time. Before Egbert could speak, Duke Padridge said first: "Who is Master Hadey among you two?"

Duke Edris felt dissatisfied that he had been overtaken by this guy!

When he saw the stunned expressions on the faces of the two people in the small pavilion and Egbert, he felt something in his heart and assumed the posture of watching a show.

"Your Majesty Duke Padrich, these two are, um, friends of Master Hadey, and they are temporarily living here."

Egbert explained, then looked at Reagan and Jeff and asked: "Mr. Reagan, Mr. Jeff, are Master Hadey available?"

The two of them stopped sitting and walked out of the pavilion.

With a sly smile on his face, Reagan regained his former confidence and said, "Mr. Egbert has something to do with Lao Ha? He finished forging the last big sword yesterday and fell asleep, and he is still lying in the room now. .”

As he spoke, he secretly looked at the two noble princes next to him who were dressed in luxurious clothes, and secretly smacked his lips. These two people had extraordinary status.

"Who are these two gentlemen?"

Egbert introduced their identities, and then said: "The Lord asked me to bring the two dukes to find Master Hadey."

Although the Duke's status was noble, it was even more concerning that the lord asked Egbert to bring the two of them here personally.

Reagan looked at them twice, then nodded, "I'll wake him up."

Soon, Hadey was carried out by Reagan with a sleepy look on his face. Seeing that he hadn't woken up yet, Reagan slapped him and shouted: "Old Ha, wake up quickly, the guests are coming!"

Seeing this scene, the corners of the two dukes' mouths twitched.

Hadey was woken up by a slap and was about to fight back when Egbert spoke up at the right time to explain his purpose.

Upon hearing this, Hadey's expression became cautious, he glanced at the two dukes, and then asked: "What is the order from the lord?"

"The Lord did not give any special instructions."

Hearing this, Hadyi felt confident and looked at Reagan with angry eyes, "That slap you just gave me."

"I'll let you hit me twice!"

At this time, Reagan also figured out what was going on. It turned out that he was overthinking and had no choice but to ask Hadyi to fight back.

"This is."

The two dukes were puzzled.

Hadyi changed his expression and said with great arrogance: "If you want to build equipment with me, you must abide by my rules."

"Of course, I am willing to offer 100 million."

Hadyi interrupted directly and said: "I am not interested in money."

Hearing this, the two Dukes frowned at the same time. Could it be that Baron Arnold had gone back on his word and was humiliating them in this way?

But what Hadey said next shocked the two of them.

"You compete with me in drinking capacity. If you can beat me, I will give you a 50% discount on other materials for free!"

A drinking competition?

That's it?

Isn't it a bit ridiculous to win a heritage-level treasure just by beating this short old man in terms of drinking capacity?

Got it, it must be Baron Arnold trying to show his favor to them in this way!

Duke Padridge and Duke Edris had smiles on their faces. Baron Arnold is a good person and can be dealt with.

"By the way, if you can't do it, you can still call your subordinates." Hadyi reminded him kindly.

The two dukes looked at each other, paying no attention to Hadey's reminder, and they started competing directly.

Half an hour later.

Hadyi squinted and looked at the two dukes lying on the wine table with disdain, and sneered, "That's it?"

Three days later, the two dukes got on the carriage for the return journey. Afterwards, they offered large sums of money to recruit people with excessive drinkers in their territories.

Baird seemed to have really set his sights on Teresa and still didn't leave. However, Theresa could not stay forever, so Ron ordered Sig to accompany Theresa and escort Theresa back to the territory.

After hearing the news, Baird was displeased, but did not do anything else. He boarded the carriage and returned directly to the royal capital.

He didn't get the 'Song of Saya', but he still had the water of life as the finale. If the effect is as described, he has made a great contribution this time.

Baird was in a daze while stroking the water of life in a half-crystal bottle, with an inexplicable light flashing in his eyes. He took out the prepared exquisite glass container, poured out half of the water of life, hesitated for a while, and poured another half.

Then pour ordinary water into the crystal bottle until it reaches the halfway mark.

Baird sealed the bottle cap and stared at the crystal bottle with a smile.

——

royal palace.

In the hall, only King Meredith and Prime Minister Marquis Nochis were present.

The Marquis of Noches told the king in detail what happened at the auction. He knew exactly what items were being auctioned and who had taken them.

Finally, Marquis Nochis took out a strange glass tube and said, "Your Majesty, this is the monster blood transformation potion."

The king just glanced at it, then withdrew his gaze, and said calmly: "Then I am told by the king to go to the academy and ask Ms. Monica for a few Red Flame Snake Fruits."

The Marquis of Nochis responded and added: "Duke Simon has followed His Majesty's instructions to indicate to outsiders that he is the second prince, but when Duke Edris does this, His Highness Felix..."

"snort!"

The king's cold snort was not loud, but it was very oppressive. He said: "Since he has given up the power in his hands, he should be prepared to bear the consequences of losing power. The throne does not mean that you can give up. You have to Have the ability to survive!”

"Yes, I understand, Your Majesty."

Marquis Nochis bowed, he knew very well in his heart that although His Majesty the King said so, His Highness Felix's throne was very secure.

Without him, he knows too much.
