Continental Warriors Yoo Ma

He didn't know whether the other party really didn't recognize him as the unlucky guy who was thrown into the mud, or he was just pretending to be confused.In short, it's best for everyone not to mention this matter.
When Ma Youfu was in the study having a headache about the candidates for the exhibition committee, he heard a servant report that Baron Harperdiner and his wife had come to visit.
Ma Youfu, who hadn't been accompanied by anyone for a long time, suddenly cheered up, threw down the quill, and went to greet the guests.
"Welcome, Your Excellency the Baron." Ma Youfu shook hands with Baron Harperdiner, and found that the man's body seemed weaker than the last time we met.If he hadn't known him for a long time, he would have thought that this man with pale skin and black eye sockets had just crawled out of the coffin and was looking for blood to drink.
"This winter is going to be tough. I hope Harperdiner's family is ready for spring plowing. If you want more people to taste the taste of 'sweet', you must provide a lot of raw materials."
"Don't worry, Lord Marquis, whether it's barley or wheat, the planting plan has already been decided. Our production will increase by at least [-]% this year." Margaret, who has been in charge of managing the family business, answered this question on behalf of her husband.
"You are as smart and beautiful as ever."
After greeting Margaret face-to-face, Ma Youfu found that Baron Harperdiner seemed to be observing himself carefully.
"Could it be exposed?" Ma Youfu felt strange.
After all, he doesn't have any habit of "husband's current crime", and he will maintain restraint and caution in front of this baron.
But even if it is discovered, it's nothing.
The big deal is to stop pretending, let's showdown.
I believe that Mr. Baron will become a self-greening activist obediently for the sake of gold coins.
Of course, divorce is also an option.
It's just that what endorses marriage in this era is not the law, but the church.If you want a divorce, you have to find a priest, and judging from the greediness of the servants of the gods, divorce is likely to outweigh the benefits.It's better to maintain the status quo and let each live his own life.
After the three sat down in the living room, Baron Harperdiner pretended to ask about the exhibition committee.
Ma Youfu explained to him in detail—mainly for his lover.
"In order to successfully organize this large-scale and unprecedented event, I will form a committee of 50 people to be fully responsible for all matters. For the 50 people, His Royal Highness Charles VII has ten, and I also have ten. The remaining thirty, will Soliciting from the whole of Europe. As for the important role of president, His Royal Highness the King will take on the role..."
Although the committee is the highest decision-making body, it actually has little real power.To put it bluntly, Ma Youfu recruited a bunch of people to invest, and then gave the other party a position that sounded bluffing, and then attended the opening ceremony, or showed his face for the championship award, to satisfy his vanity, as a reward.
It is the executive department under the committee that really does practical things.
The minister is Ma Youfu himself.
After all, it is useless to ask someone else to fill this important position.Because no one knows how this Belt and Road will be held, and what it will look like when it is successfully held.
As for the people who really do practical things, Ma Youfu decided to choose mainly from the priests.
Although there are also conservatives like Archbishop Beaufort, who regard Yihui Yizhan as a pagan thing and strongly resist it.But most priests are rare talents in this era.Moreover, as long as Ma Youfu doesn't smash the statues of the Seven Sages at the opening ceremony, not many people will refuse the generous reward and deliberately oppose it.
The most important thing is that when it comes to the "concept of time", which modern people are accustomed to, but is very scarce in this era, only priests and magicians will value it.
The reason is simple—in this farming society, only churches with bell towers and churches that need to worship on time have accurate demand for time.
Of course, spellcasters who need to calculate the reaction time of magic materials and test the duration of spells have more precise requirements for time.However, the number of such high-end talents is too small to meet the talent demand of a super-large event.
Of course, it was impossible for Ma Youfu to personally recruit so many people.
Members of the committee are obliged to nominate talents from various dioceses.
"What a wonderful plan..." Baron Harperdiner half understood.However, he still praised a few words, and then asked the question he was most concerned about, "Master Marquis, can I join this committee?"
Ma Youfu tried his best to control his expression and not laugh out loud, so as not to hurt the other party's self-esteem - he has slept with his wife, so let's keep some morals.
"Unfortunately, Mr. Baron, the minimum requirement to join the committee is the title of earl. Or you have rich assets and unparalleled business talents-such as the Medici family and the Fugger family. Or, you are like La Haile. A warrior with a famous name, or a famous artist like Donatello." Ma Youfu spread his hands, "But unfortunately, you do not meet any of the conditions."
After finishing speaking, Ma Youfu changed the subject: "However, I can consider making Harperdinner's the designated food supplier for the exhibition."
When Margaret heard these words, her beautiful eyes lit up immediately, she stopped her husband who was hesitant to speak, and said with a smile: "This is enough, this will be a huge opportunity for our sucrose business. Maybe through this With this event, we will be able to promote this beautiful dessert to other countries."
Margaret treats the maltose business as her own business, so she is very satisfied with Ma Youfu's arrangement.
Baron Harperdiner, on the other hand, just regarded this business as a temporary cash machine.Like other young aristocratic men, he has great ambitions - to put it bluntly, he is so ambitious that he doesn't care about this "small business".
So after hearing Ma Youfu's reply, apart from being disappointed, he also became more determined: After the Marquis receives the "benefits" I offered, he will definitely give me what I want.
It was finally time for dinner, and after Baron Harperdiner came to the table, he became uncharacteristically attentive, and even poured wine for the other two himself: "This bottle of Bordeaux red wine is very good, Mr. Marquis, you must drink more."
Chapter 180 Six I Cried For A Long Time
Lord Harperdiner thought he was acting naturally.But in fact, when Ma Youfu picked up the wine glass and sniffed it lightly, he discovered the problem.
There is some kind of drug added in it, which is not harmful, but is only used to stimulate human desires.
"Could it be that Baron Harperdinner has some kind of hobby and wants to invite me and their husband and wife to participate in the sonorous threesome show?" Ma Youfu thought to himself.
He didn't want to be honest with other men.If things are really going in a certain direction, they still have to be stopped in time.But for now, just wait and see how things get better.
Thinking of this, Ma Youfu quietly injected nano-divine power into the wine to slowly dissolve the medicinal effect.
In fact, he still underestimated the tricks that Baron Harperdiner could come up with after he made up his mind to sell his wife for glory.
There are actually two drugs in this bottle of wine.
One, as Ma Youfu estimated, can increase male excitability.
The second is to make women sleepy.
Scientifically, it is almost impossible to make a drug that works only for a given sex and has no effect on the other sex at all.After all, the physical structure of men and women is similar.
But magically, this is a piece of cake.
Because there are obvious differences between male and female souls - this is the knowledge recorded in elementary magic textbooks.
Therefore, when some demons demand souls as rewards, they only target one sex.And those sacrificial ceremonies that require soul sacrifices often also have requirements for the souls of the sacrifices.Those who kill and destroy often require men as sacrifices.Those who master deceit and trickery often use women as sacrifices.
The dinner was carried out in a pleasant atmosphere actively created by Baron Harperdiner.
When the three of them had almost finished drinking, the servants brought up a large plate of carbohydrate staple food - white and soft steamed buns piled up in the shape of a pagoda in the middle, and freshly baked fragrant baguettes were placed beside them.
This style of serving food was thought up by the halfling Didi.Ma Youfu was not used to this combination of Chinese and Western tastes, but after the guests praised him, he went to do as the Romans do.
It's just that he didn't expect that these two foods, which were made at random, would quickly become popular and become a new fashion on the tables of French nobles.
If another time traveler comes to this world, please don’t be surprised when you see nobles holding steamed buns in their left hand and baguettes in their right, chatting in court French “elegant” at the banquet.
However, the assortment of steamed buns and baguettes, which was praised by the French nobles, did not arouse the appetite of Baron Harperdiner.
He got up and left the table, and with some lame excuse, took the two serving servants with him.
Even after walking out of the restaurant, Mr. Baron closed the door very carefully and considerately.
"What is he doing...is..." Margaret didn't understand her husband's behavior, but at this moment the effect of the medicine took effect, and she fell asleep before finishing her sentence.
"It turns out that the baron came up with this idea." Ma Youfu finally understood, "Could it be that the baron owes a lot of money again, and he has no choice but to sell his wife to pay off the debt?"
Ma Youfu is also very clear about Baron Harperdiner's urine.Probably only when there is no way out, the other party will come up with such a way to please themselves.
I, Ma Mengde, accepted this kindness with a smile.
He came to Margaret's side, put his hand on her shoulder, injected nano power, and quickly removed the magic effect that caused drowsiness.
After Margaret woke up, she quickly realized that something was wrong: "What's going on?"
Ma Youfu told her his speculation.
The beautiful woman gritted her teeth immediately, wishing she could tear her betrayed husband to pieces.
Although after becoming Ma Youfu's mistress, the relationship with Baron Harperdiner became colder and colder, but Margaret was still working hard to manage the family—otherwise, Baron Harperdiner would not have the money to go out and drink.
Now, the husband is actually unwilling to maintain his superficial decency, and actually sends her out on his own initiative.
However, after the excitement calmed down, Margaret soon felt relieved.
Anyway, I am no longer a loyal and pure woman, so I might as well make mistakes and take this opportunity to change my life.
So, she simply sat on the dining table, hooked her lover's neck with her hands generously, and exhaled like blue: "Master Marquis, what should we do now? Should we go back to the room, or stay here? Please make a decision quickly." .For today, I have carefully prepared a lot, and now it is both fragrant and smooth~"
"Uh... Where exactly is it naked?"
"You tore my skirt, don't you know?"
Although Ma Youfu could feel a heavy breathing outside the door.But in the face of temptation at this time, how can I bear it.
For a while, the cups and plates were messed up, and the soup was flowing.
……
Baron Harperdinner originally planned to go to the city of Reims to find a brothel after leaving the restaurant, and use cheap flesh and alcohol to numb himself.
Unexpectedly, after closing the door of the restaurant, he stopped walking, put his ears on the door, and breathed more and more heavily...
"Damn it, that Youfu Ma must have taken medicine to last for such a long time. I'm so envious...no, so hateful!"
Baron Harperdiner returned to his room after the clouds and rain settled down in the dining room, his mind was full of the music.
After he fell asleep in a daze and woke up because of a weird and embarrassing nightmare, he realized that it was almost noon.
"Your Excellency the baron, my master is coming to visit soon, please be ready."
Hearing the news from his servants, Baron Harperdiner hurriedly got up and made a fuss, roughly recovering his dignity as a nobleman—of course, his dark circles and pale complexion cannot be concealed.
"Good afternoon, Monsieur Baron."
Compared with himself, who was getting weaker and weaker, the ruddy and healthy Ma Youfu undoubtedly made Baron Harperdiner a little more jealous.
However, he still remembered the important business, and said, "Master Marquis, last night..."
Ma Youfu raised his hand to stop the other party, and said: "Okay, sir, I know this kind of thing is hard to say, in order to protect your self-esteem that you have almost lost, don't point it out. Next, listen carefully to what I have to say, and after listening , and then answer, understand?"
Lord Harperdiner nodded.
He found that in front of such a big man who was really in a high position and held real power, he had no choice but to appoint weakly.
"After knowing what you did to her, Margaret was very sad last night..." Ma Youfu said, adding another sentence in his heart-after all, he had been "crying" for a long time, and his legs almost broke himself .
"But out of everyone's decency. We still decided to give you some compensation."
Hearing the word compensation, Baron Harperdiner finally cheered up.
Chapter 180 VII The Queen Arrives
"In the future, you can get one-fifth of the profits from the sucrose business of the Harperdiner family as an annuity."
"How much is this money?"
"It's at least three times your current income, and it will be more in the future. It's enough for you to live a luxurious life, baron." Ma Youfu added, "Most of the money that Margaret will earn before has been saved. Get up, and plan to invest in other relatively safe industries. This is also for the offspring of the Harperdinner family. In case I get tired of her, there is also a way out. Well, Margaret is so shrewd and cautious—but This fussy little femininity is also quite cute. At least it is more down-to-earth than those noble ladies who have no worries about food and clothing and don't know the hardships of life."
Ma Youfu's words made Baron Harperdiner's eyes dim, but he became excited again after knowing that he would have a lot of gold coins to spend in the future.
Ma Youfu took out another silver nameplate with the Kunlun Mountain pattern engraved on it, and "Kunlun Culture Exhibition" written in Chinese and French, and handed it to Baron Harperdinner.
