Chen Lun knew that the other party was talking politely, so after a brief handshake with him, he said:

"Mr. Todd, I am flattered by your enthusiasm."

"Oh no, this is a necessary courtesy, and it is also a respect for you."

When Todd saw the young man in front of him, he felt that the other party was easy to get along with, so his suspended heart was relieved.

The president, Rosa, has already conveyed the message to the following. Mr. Jack Speight is her best friend, and the circus is the highest-level partner of the chamber of commerce. She ordered that no branch should be neglected.

"Is there anything I can do to help you?"

Todd asked this question tactfully.

"This time I came to Peacock City, my companions and I may stay for a while, but because we are newcomers, we don't have a place to stay yet, so..."

"Mr. Jack, please rest assured that the Chamber of Commerce still has more than 100 apartments, more than 20 villas, and the title deeds of seven or eight manors. You can choose at will..."

Todd said quickly.

He gestured to the young lady beside him to fetch the information, then smiled and said to Chen Lun:

"Of course, I also have a large vacant apartment in my hands. If you don't mind, I can give it to you as a gift..."

"You're very kind, Mr. Todd."

Chen Lun smiled back, but shook his head.

"No need, I'll just pick a manor from the information later, and it's not in vain, it's as much as it should be."

Todd wanted to say something, but Chen Lun raised his hand to stop him.

"Although Rosa and I are good friends, business is business, and the Silver Dragon Chamber of Commerce cannot lose money... Mutual benefit is the reason for a long-term relationship, isn't it, Mr. Todd?"

"Of course, this is the most important thing in business. President Rosa has a friend like you, which is really enviable."

Todd made a compliment.

Afterwards, the young and beautiful welcome lady trotted over with a stack of documents, handed the documents to Todd, and Todd presented them in front of Chen Lun with both hands.

Chen Lun thanked him, and after receiving the materials, he put the documents of ordinary houses and apartments aside.He is not short of money now, and he doesn't want to wrong himself and his companions, squeezed into a small space.

After a round of simple selection, he chose a manor in the northeast of Peacock City.

It was originally a winery, and the owner was a man of great taste, but for some reason, he left here and moved to live in another city, thus selling the property to the Silver Dragon Chamber of Commerce.

The reason why Chen Lun took a fancy to it is that the place is big enough. In addition to the villa in the main building, there are six servant houses, grape plantations, stables, warehouses, basements and wine cellars, etc., without additional construction.

In addition, the manor is not far from the city center, and the transportation is convenient.

The price of this winery is not cheap, with a price tag of 360 gold pounds, plus some other taxes and service charges, it will cost almost [-] gold pounds.

This price is close to five times that of the former manor in Amber City.But at that time, in order to build new facilities, there was no shortage of money.

"Just this winery."

Chen Lun clicked on the directory on the file and said to Todd.

"You really have taste. This winery is the residence that suits your identity...Mr. Jack, please wait a moment, it only takes 10 minutes, oh no, 5 minutes, we will definitely complete all the procedures for you."

Todd said flatteringly.

He then vigorously ordered two male subordinates to enter an office awkwardly with the documents in hand.

Not a moment.

The male subordinate had already come out with a piece of land deed and several matching kraft paper bags, and Todd handed it to Chen Lun himself.

"Mr. Jack, it just so happens that this manor has been idle for too long, and the Chamber of Commerce decided to discount it, so it adjusted its price to [-] gold pounds. I hope you like it."

A smile played on Todd's face.

Chen Lun couldn't help raising his brows, and secretly said in his heart that he would do things.

"Then I really caught up with the good time, thank you, Mr. Todd."

He calmly took out an Imperial Bank certificate, signed it and handed it to Todd.

"You're welcome, Mr. Jack."

Todd took the black card, personally sent Chen Lun out of the building, and said courteously:

"If you need anything, you can come to me at any time...Finally, I wish you and your companions a happy life in Peacock City."

------------

Chapter 279 City Garden Theater

Everyone settled down in the winery.

Looking at the empty winery covered with dust and fallen leaves, Chen Lun immediately asked Connie to go to the relevant agency to hire dozens of servants to clean and organize the estate.

Because it was inconvenient to take too many people with him when he left Amber City, Chen Lun personally dismissed the elite killers in the circus.A considerable part of the other members of the Murder Club had their own superpowers and belonged to the Mutual Aid Society, so they accepted them.

It can be regarded as sending a favor.

"Golof, Barton, and Morey, the three of you go out to find information about Peacock City, and try to keep a low profile... In addition, I need to know who is the most powerful noble in the area, and the industry information about the Opera House .”

Chen Lun gave instructions to the three of them.

"Yes, Mr. Captain."

The three of Golov touched their chests respectfully and saluted, then turned around and strode away.

Chen Lun rubbed his chin and began to think.

"Now that the foothold has been resolved, the top priority is to collect enough information to plan the next step."

While thinking about things, he looked at this new home.

In order to commemorate the former manor, Chen Lun still named the winery "Jack".

The main villa of the New Jack Manor is quite large. Although it is also a four-story structure, it is much more spacious than the previous villa.The inside can be roughly divided into three areas, including the work area for storing books and collections, the rest and entertainment area, and the living area.

Most of the original furniture and worthless collections have not been moved away, and most of the books have also been left behind.

This was an unexpected surprise for Chen Lun.

Another savings.

And among these books, there may be some mysterious books that can be picked up.

Fu Luoyin went to the back kitchen area and cleaned it up herself, while Noah and Maggie went upstairs to choose their own rooms, studios and laboratories.

Everyone was busy with their work, only Chen Lun, the head of the regiment, inspected his territory like an idle nobleman.

Two days passed quietly.

The manor has taken on a new look, and everyone has begun to adapt to the new environment.

In order to celebrate the "housewarming", Fu Luoyin cooked a big meal for everyone.

Everyone had a very comfortable and happy meal.Perhaps, as Fu Luoyin said, when emotions are brought into cooking, the dishes made will also be contaminated with such emotions.

From this, it can be seen that Fu Luoyin is in a very good mood.

that night.

The three of Golov returned again, and this time, they seemed to have gained something.

Inside Chen Lun's spacious and exquisite study room.

Old-fashioned incandescent lamps are hung on the wall, and the whole study room presents a hazy, yellow feeling, and the atmosphere is also somewhat secretive, like a secret meeting.

The three of them sat at the coffee table at the round table and reported the information they found to the head of the group one by one.

"The Peacock City is located on the east coast of the empire, and its geographical location is relatively remote. The local parliament is relatively weak and has no right to speak... Here is mainly taken over by three forces. One is the nobles headed by the "Harrington" family, The second is a wealthy businessman headed by the "Moses Voyage" company, and the third is the gang organization "Blue Sail."

Smoking a cigarette, Golov explained in detail.

Chen Lun nodded.

As a port city, it is not surprising that the shipping company is powerful, and the Blue Sail gang is also composed of dock workers.However, on the surface, they act as protectors of the crew, trackers and low-level practitioners, but in fact they are just another form of exploitation of their own people.

"Although the title inherited by the Harrington family is only viscount and their history is not long, they are the most influential nobles in Peacock City."

Golov flicked the cigarette ash and said softly.

"Harrington..."

Chen Lun chewed on the name.

The reason why he wanted to inquire about the noble with the strongest voice was because one of the three opportunities in Peacock City seemed to be hidden in a certain noble family.

Chen Lun wants to use this "leader" to find opportunities for himself.

At this time, Barton continued on the sidelines:

"Mr. Head (this chapter is not finished!)

Chapter 279 City Garden Theater

, Regarding the extraordinary forces in Peacock City, there is no doubt that the biggest sources are the official asylum, the Madman School, and the History and Ritual Association.Among them, the Madman School, the Church of True God, is more keen on researching knowledge and doesn't like to intervene too much in mundane affairs, and the relationship between the shelter and the History and Ritual Association is not very good..."

Chen Lun listened silently and took a sip of black tea.

This is a very standard transcendent system of checks and balances. The administrative area of ​​Bangcheng is basically based on the official shelter, plus two Orthodox churches.

"Oh, by the way, it's worth mentioning that Omto College was created with the support of the Madman School behind the scenes, so that it gradually developed into a college district centered on this university."

Barton added.

Chen Lun wrote down the news and sighed secretly.

It is really because the memory of the previous life is too long, and I did not have a deep understanding of the city at that time, so now I need to re-establish a framework in my mind.

Fortunately, the clues about the three opportunities are fairly clear.

"Mr. Head, according to the information I found here, there are currently three largest opera houses in Peacock City, excluding those small family-style theaters and mobile stages...they are the "Golden Rum" Grand Theater, the "Tower Ertal" Opera House and the "City Garden" Grand Theater."

Holding a small notebook in his hand, Morey said to Chen Lun.

He turned a page and added:

"Among the three major theaters, golden rum is the most powerful, popular and influential. The play "The Rose and the Gallows", which is currently performing all day long, is their latest signature. Both the playwright and the actors are top-notch .

Tartal ranks later, but its focus is more on the pure opera and concert situation, and most of the city's dignitaries will basically go there to watch.

City Garden is at the bottom. They have no outstanding features and advantages. Some time ago, the signature actor of the pillar was bought by a nobleman with a lot of money, and the rest are only some third-rate acrobatics, animal taming and lame magic performances, and their reputation is getting worse. "

Chen Lun pondered.

The three people in front of them looked at each other, as if they had already guessed what Mr. Leader was going to do.

The team leader told them before that when they came to Peacock City this time, the team members should focus on "advanced commissions", that is, commissions involving mysterious events sent by the messenger of the Silver Dragon Chamber of Commerce.

Those clients are often powerful and powerful, but because they encountered extraordinary events in the mysterious field, and it was inconvenient for the shelter or the church to know, they had to turn to the Silver Dragon Chamber of Commerce for help.

The Chamber of Commerce will screen these commissions, and then distribute them to the circus, and then the cadres will be responsible for solving them.

While earning high rewards, you can also complete mysterious accumulation by the way.

Because of the relationship between Chen Lun and Rosa, the status of the circus in the Silver Dragon Chamber of Commerce has risen, and they can naturally get the best treatment... This is an extremely rare "mission platform".

It is also an opportunity for members to "upgrade quickly".

But the circus lives in Peacock City, and it also needs a bright identity to cover it up.It's okay if the time is short, but it will easily attract unnecessary attention if it is long.

"Just this "City Garden" theater, I will personally go to discuss with their boss, let the "Jack Circus" settle in and become the theater's performance team..."

Chen Lun rubbed his chin and said.

When the three of Golov heard this, they secretly thought in their hearts that this was indeed the case.

But their expressions are a little strange.

After all, although the name of the team is "Circus", no one knows how to perform.They are all extraordinary people, no matter whether they are fighting or solving incidents, they have no pressure, but they are somewhat unfamiliar with their "old business".

"Don't worry, it's just for show, not for you to really delve into this..."

Chen Lun laughed.

The three of Golov couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Chen Lun looked at the antique wall clock on the wall again, and then said to the three of them:

"Okay, let's do this first...you have worked hard these two days, go back to your room and rest first."
