151 Separation of interests

Delbonri, which used to be very lively, now seems much quieter.

There are still vendors setting up street stalls on the roadside, but they don’t dare to make loud noises anymore. Even if they buy and sell goods with pedestrians, they will subconsciously lower their voices. After all, there are still black blood on the roads, and the beggar army outside the city is still burying the bodies. They have been working all night, and a small number of soldiers have not been buried.

The defenders on the city wall also changed a group of them, and the vendors entering and leaving said they were not used to it.

I used to be familiar with my family, even if I brought some contraband products, I could pass it by just stuffing some money. But now I can't figure out the tempers of those golden sons, so I might as well wait a few more days and wait until the matter is over.

Whether it is strict or loose, there will always be a standard at that time.

The most feared thing is this kind of chaos. If there is no standard, then any matter may be picked out separately as a reason to make you happen.

In addition, they heard that tonight the Sons of Gold will attend the banquet jointly organized by the nobles. Regarding the rules and the distribution of interests, there will be a positive conclusion at that time.

Almost everyone is waiting for this banquet and also waiting for news after the banquet.

Waiting is a very tormenting thing. The nobles, merchants, and even mercenaries collectively believed that today was their most difficult day.

But no matter how hard it is, no matter how hard it is, time passes by little by little.

In the evening, almost the whole city came to life.

The nobles who were qualified to attend the banquet were already ready to go at home, just waiting for the darkness, took their wives or lovers and headed straight to Aldo's manor.

The little nobles or businessmen who were not qualified to participate also came out of their homes.

They gathered in taverns, hotels and other places near Aldo Manor, waiting for news, and almost all of these places were occupied.

Some people even fight for a seat.

In the manor, in order to show the solemn atmosphere, Aldo took out all the spare magic lamps used by the Magic Tower to light and hung them all in the manor. From the families of all familiar nobles, he borrowed dozens of cooking experts to help with the work, and also borrowed several experienced butlers to be responsible for the dispatch and cooperation of the entire venue.

Numerous magic lamps form a bright light curtain, almost reaching the daytime.

As more and more guests came, the entire manor gradually became noisy. They were divided into dozens of small groups, flattering each other and talking about pleasant topics.

Several housekeepers were entertaining guests in front, while Aldo stood on the balcony, looking at the dense crowds of people in the square below, showing a happy look.

The maid who was most beloved by him snuggled up to him and said, "I have never seen you so happy."

"Because my manor has never been so lively." Aldo's face was filled with the pleasure translated after extreme depression, and even a bit crazy: "Since I knelt to that woman, I have no dignity that the caster should have. But now I have it again. Although it was earned by others for me, although it was false, it would still make me happy."

The maid looked at Aldo with pity. She knew her master very well. Although she usually laughed and scolded, she was actually under heavy psychological pressure.

The maids in the entire manor fought openly and secretly, but they were very grateful to Aldo in their hearts. Therefore, these open and secretly fights will be restrained within a range and will never let their master know, which is annoying.

After all, Aldo rescued them from the dark slave market and gave them a place to settle down.

When the maid was falling into memories, she suddenly found that it was quiet below, and the chatting sounds of the bustling crowds could hardly be heard, and then she heard Aldo's slightly happy voice.

"They are here."

Four young men in simple clothes came to the door of the manor, each of which was very conspicuous.

Whether it is as strong as an orc, Hawk is full of muscles, he is very strong, but he gives people a gentle feeling, Jeter with a unique temperament of a charlatan, and Roland, who is knowledgeable and calm at first glance.

Their temperament and expressions are obviously incompatible with this world.

After they entered the manor, almost everyone stopped chatting and looked at them.

Roland, Hawke and Link were all used to the big scenes, so they walked naturally.

Jet was a little nervous, but he had a stern face and did not show any timidity.

After entering the manor, Roland immediately saw Aldo coming towards him. The latter hugged Roland with a smile on his face, and then greeted Hawk, Link and Jeter in turn.

Then he took the four of them to the banquet hall.

It turned out that the vestibule was very crowded, but after Aldo took over the reception work of the two housekeepers, a road was immediately empty in the middle. The nobles tried to squeeze together as much as possible, and did not want to block the four golden sons.

When he entered the banquet hall, Roland found that it was much brighter outside.

And there were five people sitting at the long table in the middle of the banquet hall.

When they saw Roland and the other four, they stood up at the same time.

Aldo brings Roland and the others over.

The two sides looked at each other across a long table.

Aldo stood in the main seat, coughed gently, and led everyone's eyes to himself, and then said, "You must be familiar with these four, and they are also our protagonists, so I won't introduce them. Roland, Hawk, Link, and Jet, this time I will introduce to you these five honors or beautiful ladies who are important in Delbon."

Among the five, there was an old woman. When she heard Aldo's words, she used a feather fan to cover her lower half of her face. Her wrinkled eyelids could even smile like a crescent moon. From this, it can be seen that she must have been a great beauty when she was young.

Then Aldo blew at the five people in awkward manner.

According to the habits of the nobles, Aldo pressed them all the titles that these five people could press.

Roland used his own logic to conduct a streamlined analysis.

These five people were all nobles, and they even monopolized the iron and grain business, fur business, gem business and seasoning business in the city.

Roland looked at them, thought for a while, and asked back, "Actually, you all have a relationship with the city lord John's family, right?"

"Awesome, you can guess it." The old woman put the fan away: "It is worthy of being an extremely knowledgeable and intelligent master."

Roland sighed: "It's not difficult. The things you manage are very important. If I were the city lord, I wouldn't give them to outsiders casually. I must let my own people take care of them to be at ease. My friends will definitely be able to figure out the simple logical reasoning."

As soon as these words were said, Hawke's expression was fine, but Jet and Link's expressions seemed very guilty.

Their expressions were seen by the five people opposite, and all of them showed slightly joking gazes, which were not obvious and would not hurt people.

Roland turned his head and looked at Link and Jeter, quite speechless.
