Realm of Power

This hotel was originally a nobleman's mansion. Although it was converted into a hotel, the decoration inside was almost unchanged and still exuded a typical aristocratic atmosphere. The fat man walked into the tall round stone arch, and the turpentine torch was on the wall. There was a crackling sound of burning on the floor, and the whole hall was filled with the faint fragrance of high-end spices. Under the feet were pieces that were tightly sewn together, thick and shiny. A clean marble block hangs on the gray wall. It is a large-scale pastoral landscape painting based on the famous work "The Autumn of Sartori" by the famous poet Fulou. Layers of golden wheat waves surround the beautiful white small castle. All around, this contrast in color and the realistic brushes make people who walk in feel bright, as if they are in a beautiful harvest festival in autumn.

Several people in aristocratic attire held wine glasses in their hands and talked in low voices at the square table in the corner of the hall. A luthier in black attire played the huqin at the front desk of the hotel. The melodious sound of the zither eliminated the fatigue of the travelers and made people feel relaxed. Feel at ease and peaceful.

This is a very high-end hotel in Zhivadin. Compared with the large hotels outside the Second City that are rented to ordinary businessmen, this hotel is mainly used to receive nobles from other places and big businessmen who like aristocratic life.

"Dear Sir!" When the tavern owner saw the fat man walking in, he hurriedly prepared to bend down and salute, but the fat man waved his hand slightly to stop him. As an injured and retired Satsuma Guardsman, the owner knew the fat man and gave the injured rural soldier a piece of land. , giving an inheritance to injured urban soldiers is a benefit that Samoer gives to retired soldiers who fought bravely. It is precisely because there are no worries that Samoer soldiers can fight to the death on the battlefield and move forward.

"What room is Miss Jones Nelly on the second floor?" The fat man leaned on the counter and asked in a low voice. The boss responded, "Room 4 on the second floor. But sir, there may be a little trouble? No. 3 on the second floor came yesterday." The guest in the room seems to be very close to Miss Jones. We don't know if we should investigate."

"Well? Is the guest renting Room 3 on the second floor a man or a woman?" The fat man frowned slightly. Could someone have had Jones Nelly's idea? If so, you must give the other party a good look. I have the final say on my territory. Even the royal family must keep their head down in Zhivadin! If I don’t knock you to the ground and step on you a few times, I won’t be Governor Zhivadin.

"It's a woman!" The boss couldn't help but trembled when he saw the fat man's livid face. Knowing that the fat man had misunderstood, he quickly said, "She came with the nobles in the corner. I heard it was Ziva Chezechas." The lady of the family looks very..." The tavern owner suddenly stopped talking and seemed to be thinking about the appropriate adjective.

"Chas family! It can't be such a coincidence, right?" Hearing that it was a member of the Chas family, the fat man's heart could not help but fluctuate slightly. Seeing his boss thinking hard, the fat man said with a solemn expression, "Isn't she a very coquettish woman?" "

"Yes, yes, she's so charming that you can't forget her at a glance!" the boss said quickly,

"Mrs. Susanna! I didn't expect to meet her here! This woman is not an economical person." A gorgeous figure in red appeared in the fat man's mind, and he muttered with an ugly face, especially when the boss said that Mrs. Susanna also brought A tall, dignified and beautiful maid, with a frighteningly fat face, was silent for a while and waved her hand to the innkeeper, "Send someone to the Business Alliance headquarters immediately and ask President Si Duhan to come see me tomorrow morning!" "

"Yes, sir." The boss quickly went over and told the waiter. The fat man stopped at the stairs with a complex expression. Mrs. Susanna, Keith Vivian, and Jones Nelly, these three beautiful figures were wandering in the fat man's mind, "Forget it, I don't want to think about it anymore." !" The fat man shook his head and stepped up the steps firmly. "I believe that the tears of the moon god are enough to make up for the damage I caused to Keith Vivian."

The fat man walked up to the top of the second floor. The dark wooden corridor made a creaking sound, and a horizontal corridor appeared in front of him. Jones Nelly's Room 4 was opposite Room 3. The sound insulation effect of the wooden mezzanine was not good. Fatty Octavia's ears could even hear the women's whispers and laughter coming from inside.

"Sister Jones, tonight is the bidding meeting for the Satsuma Kyoto store. You are a distinguished guest from Kyoto. It would be a pity not to go and see such an important event. My sister was also invited by the Business Alliance and happened to go there with her. "Look." Mrs. Susanna's unique soft voice, with a touch of charming charm, floated into Fatty's ears, which made Fatty's heart sink. "It's over. I didn't expect that they are already living in the same room!"

"Creak!" Before the fat man could recover, the door to room No. 4 on the second floor had been pushed open by a tall maid. Her beautiful and smart eyes met the fat man's eyes in a daze at the door.

Although the fat man did not wear an aristocratic dress, his unique and foolish look had already been burned into Keith Vivian's heart.

"It's you!" Keith Vivian's body suddenly froze, her chest heaving with excitement, an inexplicable emotion rushing through her chest, and her head went blank.

The foolish fat man outside the door turned out to be the silly fat man whose engagement was broken off by him. Although he had no good feelings for him, the priceless Tears of the Moon God kept torturing his heart like a flame, and the fat man was also dumbfounded. Looking at the door, Keith Vivian was completely frightened, muttering painfully in her heart, "What are you so afraid of? I can't live this life!"

"What happened?" Mrs. Susanna saw her maid standing at the door in a daze. She couldn't help but stood up and said, "Go and get my dress immediately. Our time is very tight. After midnight, the bidding meeting will begin. "

"Yes, yes!" Keith Vivian almost panicked and ran into Room 3 opposite, revealing the silly fat man at the door. Because Keith Vivian was half a head taller than the fat man, Mrs. Susanna did not notice the fat man just now.

"Sir! Why are you here?" Suddenly she saw Fatty Summer standing at her door. Mrs. Susanna, who had always been good at dancing, also panicked. Her face turned frighteningly pale. Countless terrible thoughts were spinning in Mrs. Susanna's mind, thinking of her own unauthorized actions. Bringing Keith Vivian to Zhivadin, his body couldn't help but shudder. Fatty Samoer is famous in the south for his pettiness.

"I am the butler of the Duke of Jones's Palace!" Seeing that his secret was about to be exposed, the fat man quickly bowed respectfully and saluted, "I am here to see Miss Jones Nelly of the Duke's Palace!"

"Harissa!" Nelly Jones, who had her back turned to the fat man, heard the fat man's voice and turned around happily. She stood up with her beautiful and tall figure, carrying a gust of fragrance, and threw herself into the fat man's arms.

The various difficulties encountered in Zhivadin made Jones Neely feel aggrieved. This was not Kyoto. This was Zhivadin where aristocrats and commoners were equal. Jones Neeli, who was used to the life of an aristocrat, found it difficult to adapt to the situation. Things that are easy to do in Kyoto are extremely difficult here.

The grievances of the past ten days flooded into the heart of the duke's daughter. She lay on the fat man's broad shoulders with a pale face and cried, "Why did you come just now? Do you know how hard it was for me to wait for you? I thought you would kill me." Forgot!"

"Ha...Lee...Sa" Mrs. Susanna opened her mouth very rudely, and then closed it after a while, her charming eyes on the fat man. He glanced up and down, as if he had discovered something rare, and the fat man felt panicked.

"Who is this lady?" The fat man asked shamelessly after Jones Nellie calmed down a bit. The excited Jones Nellie then remembered that there was a distinguished lady in the room and hurriedly struggled out of the fat man's arms. He introduced with a blushing face.

"This is Mrs. Susanna from Zhivacheze! She is a friend of Governor Samour. I believe that as long as she is willing to help, the matter of our Jones family will be able to be solved!"

"I never expected that you are the Deacon Harry that Miss Jones Nelly calls you!" Mrs. Susanna listened to Jones Nelly's introduction with trembling fear. She was almost frightened out of her wits. She teased him on Fatty Summer's territory. sa Fatty Mo'er's woman was really guilty of this crime. She quickly stood up and gave a lady's salute to the fat man. She said with a pale face, "That's just a joke on my part. If there are people like you to help me, I will be there." To help”

"No, no, I believe in Madam Susanna's sincerity!" The fat man responded with a sincere face, "My lady is not familiar with the place in Zivadin. I am really grateful to have such a warm-hearted person like Madam Susanna to help me. Oh, by the way, just now I heard from my wife that tonight is the bidding meeting for the Satsuma Kyoto store. I wonder if my wife would like to accompany my lady to attend. Please give me tickets and recommendations.
