Starting Today, I’ll Work as a City Lord
Chapter 163
"Tat Tat Tat..."
The knight came in and saluted, "My lord, I didn't find anything unusual."
"Oh?" The Lord of Beifeng glanced at the greasy corner of the knight's mouth, did he eat something? Then this is the best test subject.
"Tatatatat..." There was a sound of hurried footsteps, and a gatekeeper knight ran in and said eagerly, "My lord, Baron Adam please see me."
"Baron Adam? Why haven't you heard of it?" The Lord of Beifeng was stunned for a moment and asked, "What else did he say?"
"He said he is the second son of Earl Puli, the elder brother of Baron Omar." The gatekeeper knight hurriedly reported.
"What? Earl Pooley's son?"
The Lord of the North Wind's face became extremely gloomy, thinking of Baron Omar, the planner of the horse thief's attack, what does his brother want to do here now? tear face?
"My lord, don't be rude." The knight reminded him from the side.
"Hmph!" The fat on the cheeks of the North Wind City Lord trembled, and he almost opened his mouth to curse, but it's a pity that Earl Puli is not something he can afford to offend.
"call……"
City Master Beifeng took a deep breath and said coldly, "Please invite him to the living room, I will be there later."
"My lord, it's time for lunch. According to the rules of nobles, you have to entertain guests with a banquet." The knight reminded again in a low voice.
"..." The Lord of Beifeng glared at the knight fiercely. He was out of control and almost forgot the common sense of nobles. He said coldly, "Let's go prepare the banquet."
"Yes!" The knight heaved a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the city lord could hold back his anger. Otherwise, if he offended Earl Puli, it would be really detrimental to Beifeng City.
You must know that the channel of Youshui River also passes through the territory of Earl Puli. Once Earl Puli blocks the channel of Youshui and prevents the ships from North Wind City from coming and going, half of the trade in North Wind City will be abolished.
"Wait!" City Lord Beifeng also thought of this, and stopped the knight who was about to leave expressionlessly, and ordered, "Put these two things at the banquet as well."
"Yes!" The knight was stunned for a moment, and then left with two cans of fish meat and two packs of milk tea.
The knight admired the patience and generosity of the city lord. If he were to be the city lord, he would have to embarrass the other party.
After the knight left, the North Wind City Lord gritted his teeth with hatred. If it wasn't for showing off, he wouldn't have put milk tea and canned fish on the banquet.
The North Wind City Master glanced around, looking for something that could be dropped. He wanted to vent his anger, and finally stared at the canned fish on the table, and then looked away awkwardly. A can cost three hundred copper coins, and it would be a bit of a hassle to drop it. Reluctant.
Suppressing the anger in his heart, the North Wind City Lord leaned back on the chair, his mind turned, thinking about the reason for Baron Adam's visit, could it be that he was standing up for his younger brother...
After a while, the knight came in and reported, "My lord, the banquet is ready, Baron Adam is already waiting for you."
"En!" The Lord of Beifeng nodded, and with the help of the knight, he stood up with great effort and slowly moved towards the banquet.
As soon as he entered the banquet, the North Wind City Lord had a kind smile on his face, folded his hands, and bowed his hands, "I really neglected Your Excellency Adam, I just finished handling the government affairs."
"Eh?" Baron Adam was taken aback. What does this gesture mean? Noble etiquette in the West End? That can't lose the face of the nobles.
He hurriedly imitated the same manner, cupped his hands and said, "I took the liberty to interrupt."
"Please sit down!" The Lord of Beifeng waved his hand, with a smug smile on his lips, feeling refreshed, His Excellency Liu Feng's etiquette shocked even the earl's son.
He was thinking, if he could get clothes like Liu Feng's, he might even scare the earl's son even more.
Baron Adam sat down at the other end of the dining table, and after the North Wind City Lord took the first bite of the dishes, the banquet officially began.
"Come, Your Excellency Adam, please taste the delicacy of North Wind City." The Lord of North Wind City pointed to the fish on the ceramic plate.
"Okay!" Baron Adam disapproved. What kind of food is there in this remote area? He moved his nose slightly, and could clearly smell a strong fragrance.
"Huh?" Baron Adam stared at the chunky fish meat in front of him in astonishment. It was the first time he smelled such an aroma. He picked up the spoon next to him, scooped up a piece of fish meat and stuffed it into his mouth...
"Delicious! So delicious!"
Baron Adam's eyes widened, and he stared blankly at the fat man in front of him. Is this still a country bumpkin nobleman? How to eat better food than earl?
Chapter 0195 just want an excuse.
The Lord of Beifeng resisted the urge to grab the fish with his hands, and ate it slowly. He squinted his eyes and looked at Baron Adam, who looked like a starving ghost. He curled his lips in disdain. Eat like a pariah.
"Come on, try this milk tea again." City Lord Beifeng picked up the milk tea and grinned, "A new drink for one silver coin, I wonder if it suits Your Excellency Adam's taste."
One silver coin and one cup. Originally, the lord of Beifeng City wanted to make a few cups in a pack, but the nobles are like this. Even if they feel sorry for milk tea, they will not let go of the opportunity to show their superiority. This is also called dying. typical.
"A drink for a silver coin?" Baron Adam shook his hand holding the spoon, is he so proud?
Baron Adam looked at the beige drink in the ceramic cup in bewilderment. It was not barley wine. He picked up the cup and sniffed it. The thick milky fragrance was mixed with a fresh fragrance.
"Gudu..."
When the milk tea entered his mouth, Baron Adam was stunned. There was a bit of bitterness in the aroma of milk, but also a touch of sweetness, and the taste buds were still aftertaste after swallowing it.
"What's this?"
Baron Adam stared straight at the Lord of the North Wind, immediately thought of the benefits of this drink, and shouted in his heart, he must get this drink, and if he pays tribute to the fourth prince, maybe he can get the support of the fourth prince and become the heir to the earl.
"Milk tea, a new type of drink, is very rare in production and very expensive. It costs one silver coin per cup." Beifeng City Lord said flatly.
"Your Excellency, who invented this milk tea?" Baron Adam said softly. He quickly collected his mentality and returned to his indifferent appearance.
The most important thing is to get the formula of this milk tea. As long as you have this formula, you can plan many things. From his point of view, he found that milk tea is simply a revolutionary drink.
"Uh..." The North Wind City Lord hesitated, and when he was considering whether he could plan for a profit, he saw Baron Adam holding three rubies the size of his index fingers on the table.
"Hahaha... This milk tea was invented by His Excellency Liu Feng, the Lord of Xiyang City." Greed flashed in the eyes of the Lord of Beifeng City.
"So that's the case, this is a little bit of my heart." Baron Adam pushed the ruby forward.
Immediately, a maid went forward to take the ruby, and carefully placed it in front of the Lord of Beifeng.
"I don't know, Your Excellency Adam, what's the matter this time?" The Lord of Beifeng calmly picked up the ruby.
"This visit, there is something I would like to ask His Excellency the Lord of the City." Baron Adam said seriously.
"Oh?" The Lord of Beifeng's heart beat slightly. Could it be that he really came to stand up for Baron Omar? what should i say Put the blame on Liu Feng?
"My brother, Baron Omar, is missing, so I want to ask His Excellency the Lord of the City to know who has a deep grudge against my brother." Adam stared straight at the face of the Lord of the North Wind.
"Ah? How is this possible?"
The owner of Beifeng City was astonished and stared blankly at Baron Adam. Could it be that Baron Omar had already fled knowing that the incident had been revealed?
No, there is Earl Puli behind Baron Omar, even if his identity is exposed, there is no need to be afraid of revenge.
"In fact, Omar has been missing for many days." Baron Adam frowned. The expression of the North Wind City Lord was not the panic he imagined, but a surprised expression.
