Flowers, Swords and France

The fussing in the study ended quickly. At this moment, Charles had been subdued, and Charlotte had to sit beside her, under the close surveillance of the servants who came later.

"Mr. Treville, you have just lowered your credit rating by two levels." Seeing that Charles had been subdued, Baron Beauvain, who felt that he had regained control of the situation, regained his composure. Apart from being happy, I was also slightly disappointed.

Is the young man with whom he was chatting happily at the art exhibition, the young man who can understand his own thoughts, just a person of this level? As expected, young people only talk about being powerful, but their true colors are revealed once they see the real chapter.

He sighed secretly and laughed secretly in his heart.

What kind of noble person and aristocratic demeanor, once the critical moment comes, aren't they exactly the same as those ordinary people on the street?

However, the young man on the opposite side has regained his original demeanor and calmness, and there is almost no trace of the madness when he suddenly burst out and launched an attack.

"Lowered by two levels? How many are left now?" Ciel asked with a smile.

"Five million." The baron answered directly, and then added, "It was two million before."

"There are so many?" Charles was surprised.

"If my thought is only worth two million, it's still cheap." The baron said matter-of-factly.

Ciel frowned slightly, and then said sincerely.

"It's really more than that."

After hearing Ciel's answer, the Baron smiled and nodded.

"Although you have lost a lot of points for your performance just now, based on these words, I still appreciate you a little bit."

"Thank you." Charles replied with the same smile.

If Charles hadn't been held tightly by someone and could hardly move at this moment, it would have been as if the two of them had returned to the conversation at the art exhibition.

However, after all, it is no longer the time at the art exhibition where the two of them can talk freely without any involvement.

"You should have saved yourself some dignity just now. And what did you do? You were violent to my partners and assistants in my house, in front of me. You think this is what you should do when you ask someone to do something. What kind of person do you think I am, that I can do whatever I want?" The baron's expression returned to seriousness.

Ciel sneered and then said sarcastically.

"Decent? What else can we say to fraudsters?"

"I am very sorry for your baseless attack." In the face of this attack, the banker did not waver at all - others have said this to him countless times in person or not. And the words were ten times more unpleasant. He had already lost all feeling for the loser's curse.

Okay, there's nothing more to say. Although the other party's behavior today can't arrest him or tie him to the police, it can be enough reason to drive them home.

"You haven't learned enough about your education, but this is not something that should be taken care of by me. I don't intend to pursue what happened today for your grandfather's sake, but please go back. Wait until one day you learn how to do it right. We have enough respect for me to come and talk..."

"Mr. Bowen, have you forgotten?" After hearing his words, Charlotte couldn't help shouting, her tone full of resentment, "If you don't agree to our request today, we will let everyone I know you're planning a big scam. Do you want to make yourself infamous?"

Seeing that everyone was already divided, Charlotte also spoke very directly.

The baron couldn't help but darken his face.

Yes, it would be a bit troublesome if they really did that. but……

Do you want to threaten me with this? Too young.

This is just a small meal after the originally planned big meal. It is a by-product of making a lot of extra money after the big meal. Although it is delicious, it is not necessary. If necessary - Baron Beauvain was never one to be incapable of making a decision.

"Do you think you can manipulate me at will by threatening me like this? You are simply naive! Yes, if you do this, it will cause me big trouble, but I can tell you that when the time comes, I will directly declare that there is a problem with the project, and then give all the money Give it back to them, and what about you? You will make a sworn enemy of the Treville family, a sworn enemy who can mobilize 12 million yuan in twenty-four hours and hundreds of millions of assets in total. Do you think those people will! Help you deal with me out of gratitude?"

"Do you think we can't deal with you?" Charlotte glared at the Baron.

"Then come and give it a try. Do you think it's still a century ago? Miss Treville?" The Baron sneered. He seemed too lazy to put on that mask anymore. His smile was full of evil, "Parliament Inside, I can call the shots, and the congressmen who flatter me are smarter than me. There are more horses in the stable; no one in the Bank of France will deliberately provoke me, because I am one of the most powerful ones! What about the Prime Minister who shook hands with me yesterday? Do you think he is more important? Does Treville, who has expired, value Bowen more who can give him unlimited support?

What does the Duke of Treville have now? Just a former minister of the deposed dynasty! Do you think you can still scare me with your bloodline? Or do you want to take advantage of me? If you want to, feel free to give it a try and see who has the last laugh! Money only has real power and brings power when it reaches extremely high levels. If you want to blame it, just blame yourself for not having enough money!

Moreover, you were not included in the plan at the beginning. It was Miss Charlotte. It was you who happily ran to convince your grandfather to let him get involved... Hey, did the Duke tell me about this? How can I tell him it's a scam? Now that he has mentioned it, I will promise you. Since you are the ones who want to lose a lot of money, then you should blame yourself for being cheated! "

Faced with this robber's declaration of open fire, Charlotte was speechless for a moment.

"Reflect on your current mood. I think you won't even have such a chance soon." The baron's face suddenly showed a bit of ridicule, "Since you have made such a mistake, do you think you will be punished again in the future?" Do you care? I can tell you that your father and grandfather will not dare to confront me directly, at least not now. They will retreat and admit defeat in this game, and then they will vent their anger on you. Don’t believe it? Then we can try it.”

Charlotte stared at the banker across from her with wide eyes. She had never hated a person as much as she did today, partly because the threats he said were probably right.

"So, you can do whatever you like, but I personally think your grandfather will ask you to continue to keep the secret." The baron said the last sentence easily.

Charlotte's breathing became heavier and heavier, her eyes were a little dazed, and there was a little despair in her hatred.

"You...you..."

Feeling that something was wrong with her, the baron quickly ordered the servant to stand in front of her seat, blocking the route between the two people. At the same time, the people who grabbed Ciel became harder and harder, fearing that Ciel would do it again.

Is that the end? Charlotte suddenly felt her vision go dark.

Her heart went completely blank for a moment, and even fear and hatred were no longer left.

………………

"Mr. Bowen, I don't think we've reached the point where we have nothing to talk about yet."

Her brother's voice echoed in her ears again, and she suddenly opened her eyes and looked at Ciel next to her.

Ciel, it's up to you!

After Baron Bowen heard this, he looked at Charles with interest.

"Oh? It's rare that you suddenly become so sensible now. How about you tell me what you think?" He was not opposed to listening to this young man's words again, just as a kind of entertainment.

"There is no doubt that you are now on the stronger side and the money is in your hands."

"I'm glad you can still face reality."

"However, this is just you taking advantage of people's ignorance. From a pure perspective, I have to say that your plan this time is a bit rough. If I had been the one to handle it from the beginning, you would never have succeeded."

When the word ignorance was mentioned, Charlotte looked slightly embarrassed.

"Rough?" The Baron frowned, and then replied nonchalantly, "Maybe a little, but as long as it works."

"You could have made this project end in a more perfect situation, but instead you made it look like a ridiculous market vendor's business. It is already the modern 19th century and you are still repeating the boring tactics of the Middle Ages. , It’s simply ridiculous. Of course, this is the limitation of vision and wisdom, and it is not your fault alone. I don’t particularly blame you..."

The words "limitations of vision and wisdom" made the baron's face suddenly look ugly.

For some people, it doesn't matter if you call them despicable or shameless, but calling them stupid would be a huge insult.

"Do you think I'll be angry if you say this?" he replied slowly.

"No, I just think you have wasted the value of your name, that's all." Ciel looked at the other party calmly, "I originally thought your name could be more valuable."

"What's the meaning?"

"Based on the current situation, you are just planning to earn a few million with this plan..."

"To be precise, it is currently between nine million and ten million. Of course, there may be more in the future." The baron suddenly glanced at Charlotte, "If another poor guy comes to the door again."

Faced with such ridicule, Charlotte couldn't help but blush with anger.

"Well, even so, I don't think that number is worthy of your name."

The baron's face moved slightly.

"Keep talking!"

Charles glanced at the servant next to him. The baron nodded slightly. The muscular servant let go of his hand, but still stared at Charles closely.

But Ciel simply ignored him and looked directly at the Baron.

"I have a way to make your name more valuable. To compare, if you insist on going your own way, the nine million will probably be lost soon. If you return the one million to Charlotte, it won't take long for you to earn Tens of millions, maybe more."

The baron stared at Charles, trying to find any sign of lying on his face.

Is this young man serious?

"Very good, keep talking." (To be continued.)
