Chapter 20 The Invitation of the Nobles
Tole was a merchant in the city of Dead Wood, and the continent of Chiron was developing better and better under the rule of the Supreme Council.
Although there are still many poor people, it is much better to starve to death than in the turbulent era.
Even the poor still have a few savings on hand now.
Nowadays, more and more people are trying to be businessmen. This is a popular profession. Of course, you must also have a way and be willing to spend money.
Otherwise, the thieves or monsters on the road will make you regret your stinginess.
After several years of mercy, Toler finally gained a place in the city of Dead Wood, and the superiors told him to invite the young scholar.
He didn't know why, he just needed to do his own tasks silently.
A powerless businessman just needs to take care of his mouth and be willing to bear the gold coins in his hand.
Hearing his words, the man nodded slightly and said proudly: "Say."
Toler was not dissatisfied with this. The young man was a scholar and he did not need to be very humble to a businessman.
In fact, if the newly promoted upper class who is as unreputable as this young man will be looked down upon if he is kind to ordinary civilian businessmen.
They often regard your low-keyness as a weak joke, and they also include those civilians here.
"This is an invitation letter from a certain adult to tell me to you."
Toler respectfully brought up a hardcover invitation with golden patterns, which was used only at the aristocratic level.
"Okay, I'll consider it, you can quit."
“Yes, respected scholar.”
"I just changed my job as a scholar. Are you here to invite me now? What a coincidence..."
When You Xiu opened the invitation letter, he saw it said:
To noble scholars—
We sincerely invite you to participate in a game. Please rest assured that those annoying pariahs will not appear on the field. I believe you will maintain a happy mood.
I would like to remind you that before entering the venue, be sure to wear the mask you have prepared, and you will have unexpected surprises at that time.
The bottom is the date and place, and there is no signatorial person.
Seeing this place name, a strange look appeared on Yo Xiu's face.
“Mask game?”
Looking at the invitation information, it is estimated that this is a gathering held only among the upper class of nobles and other people. As for the content, it makes it mysterious.
He was not a scholar or aristocrat in his previous life, so he had never seen anything like that.
In addition to guessing the possibility, he really wanted to see what this mysterious game is.
The cold and fierce dagger rotated and jumped in his hand.
"interesting."
A gorgeously decorated hall.
"Knicks, why are you going to invite that kid?" A young man dressed in a nobleman said a little dissatisfied, and a charming woman in his arms was acting coquettish.
"He is just a junior scholar, and his status is less than that of the Baron."
"You know, in a few years, you and I will inherit the throne of the Count of our family."
"Little scholars are not worthy of our friendship."
The Knicks shook his head, shook the red wine in his hand, and took a sip: "If it were other scholars, it would be fine. His supervisor is Boomn University teacher, Russ, do you understand that?"
"Bumn?" Russ was shocked, "is the master who is said to be almost going to become a sage?"
"Yes," said Knicks, "I heard that he has lived in seclusion here for many years. I didn't expect it to be true. Otherwise, why do you think I'm here for?"
"Making good friends with him will be good for our family. Master Boomn is a scholar who specializes in knowledge, but it does not mean that he has no human nature."
"That boy happened to give us a breakthrough."
When Ruosi heard this, he felt that what he said was reasonable and he had no complaints before.
He and the Knicks family were from generation to generation. Since he was a child, the elders of the family told him to learn more from him.
Before leaving this far away, I even ordered to obey the Knicks. Now that I want to come, I still have to admire it.
I was the same age as the Knicks, but my wisdom was still much worse, and I was not as thoughtful as the other party.
However, he was not jealous or envious of this, but instead had a kind of dependence, and their family relationship was very good.
With the other party’s carry, you don’t have to spend much effort and you can be as casual as you want.
Thinking of this, Rus couldn't help but pinch the warm and fragrant nephropathy in his arms and let out a lewd smile.
Seeing this, Knicks shook his head secretly...
This mask game was also thought of by this kid, and the purpose is not necessarily very good, but it has to be said that this method has unexpectedly good results in the current aristocratic circle.
The next night
Yoshu did not wear the [Red Flower Badge]. What he needs now is to be low-key and the civilian outfits he wears don’t need to be replaced.
On the road, there were a few thieves who were blind and wanted to steal, but they were all secretly twisted their wrists and left in disappointment.
Turning around the prosperous city center, bypassing several streets, women dressed in colorful clothes on both sides of the road are soliciting customers.
These prostitutes and women's clothes were very exposed. If they had not given the city guards a face on their face, they would have hoped to strip them naked and stand there.
In fact, from time to time, there are uncontrollable drunken men who can't hold a prostitute and a girl and go into the dark alley to carry out some kind of primitive activities.
The sound of slap and panting moans came faintly in the noise.
This is the edge of the slums, a hybrid area for all ordinary citizens, a mixture of snakes and dragons.
Even in the era of parliamentary rule, dark existences are still indispensable, and the superiors turn a blind eye to these situations.
As long as you don't make too much trouble, the city guards will not meddle in other people's business, otherwise they will be exhausted to death.
No matter how charming the prostitutes and girls are, they are not interested in asking for help. Let’s not talk about being reserved or not. Who knows how the hell is under the thick makeup powder?
He patted the seventh person who held his prostitute and asked Xiu to come to Yanliu Lane.
This is the most famous brothel in the neighborhood. It is first-class in terms of quality and service, and is specially prepared for rich people.
When I got to know Xiu, I saw several wealthy businessmen with jewels coming out and saying goodbye to the old lover.
The venue for the Mask Game is actually a brothel here.
As a gathering of upper-level personnel, it is really an unexpected place.
"Young master, who do you want to accompany you?"
A middle-aged woman with a twisted figure and thick makeup came to Ye Xiu.
As a prostitute here, the female leader has very vicious eyesight. It can be seen at first that Yoshu is coming to such a place.
"We have pure and mature ones here...all kinds of them."
"If you have a cleanliness, you can also find an undeflowered one, but it's just the price, it's a little expensive."
Shaking his head, Yo Xiu had a cold face and said proudly: "I'm not here to prostitution. I don't like these rouge women!"
The prostitute, the female leader was unhappy when he heard Ye Xiu's words, but he just forced himself to show it.
When she saw the invitation letter that Yo Xiu took out, her face changed, and the displeasure in her eyes disappeared, and she helped Yo Xiu cover it up with awe.
The invitation letter is so generous and conspicuous. After all, it is not nice to say.
"Great adult, the bastard is offended. I don't know you are coming to the dance."
It was the first time that Yo Xiu came here, so she didn't blame him for not recognizing it.
She didn't explain either, because she knew that explanations were useless for these big names, so it would be better to admit your mistakes honestly.
Otherwise, they may also think you think they made a mistake.
Between the civilians and the nobles, the latter can never be wrong.
If you have to think they are wrong...
The prostitute, the female leader, looked a little frightened, and she remembered her previous post.
It is said that she offended a big man because of this, and was interrupted and stripped naked and threw him into the corner of the alley in the slums.
Those places are often the most humble gathering places for the poor, and many homeless people are there to stay late.
As long as a woman is not old enough, even if she is ugly, she will arouse the hungry, thirsty, but not much empty untouchable wolfishness.
Thinking that he might fall to that end, the prostitute and the female leader couldn't help but tremble.
Fortunately, the young big man in front of him didn't seem to care about him, and seemed to be disdainful of wasting time on her.
This made her feel relieved. Fortunately, she was not taken seriously, and fortunately she tried her best to hide her emotions just now.
"Goddess Arrily bless."
She silently thanked the goddess of luck.
