through the dark road

Chapter 682 Stable

Lin Zhaoxi thought that she would have to deal with a high-end game next, assisting Mo Bei in talking to a group of big shots. She wiped her sweaty palms again and again, and changed several tissues.

result. . .

Boss Mo just looked around and had no intention of dealing with anyone. Moreover, he stayed there for less than an hour before he said to her:
"It's almost done, let's go!"

"Huh? Go...where?"

“Yesterday’s roast lamb and hand-caught lamb were good, let’s try them again!”

Lin Zhaoxi was speechless.

As everyone knows, this kind of situation is quite uncomfortable for Mo Bei, and it is already embarrassing for him to stay for such a while.

He felt that this trip had left a deep impression on the people present and demonstrated his strength. The next step was for those who wished to take the bait.

Neither piece of jewelry participated in the post-exhibition auction, and he did not leave his contact information, but it should not be difficult for those with money and power to find him if they are really interested.

After leaving the convention and exhibition center, he seemed to have completely forgotten about the incident, eating and drinking and wandering around.

When I returned to the hotel in the evening, I realized that the eldest prince whom I had met in the morning had sent someone and had been waiting for a long time.

Lin Zhaoxi's eyes changed when she looked at Mo Bei.

Is it so stable? . .

In fact, Mo Bei himself was a little surprised. He thought someone might come, but he didn't expect it to be so soon.

The other party's attitude was very polite, and they came specifically to ask Mo Bei what time was convenient. They would hold a banquet and wait for him.

Mo Bei didn't hesitate and directly set the time for noon the next day.

At this time, there was actually enough time to prepare for the dinner, but the dinner ended late at night anyway. He didn't want Lin Zhaoxi to work overtime, even if it was just a temporary employment relationship.

From the current point of view, this girl's ability, work attitude, character and character are all worthy of recognition. He is indeed considering finding a helper for himself, so as not to go to the shelter when the time comes, and things here are completely stopped. I don’t know what it will be like when I come back. .

The next day, a small motorcade appeared on time and was waiting outside the hotel.

When Mo Bei saw the car prepared for the three of them, he raised his brows slightly and felt a little confused about whether to laugh or cry.

In front of me was a Hongqi L-type sedan, which looked very official.

It would be okay if this car was driven around by itself, but it was sitting in a convoy. . .

He is a commoner, so he is a bit overstepping his bounds. .

As soon as the thought came up, he laughed it off, followed the banshee, and got in through the car door opened by the waiter. Lin Zhaoxi sat in the passenger seat. Judging from his expression and sitting posture, he looked a little unnatural.

The convoy passed through the city, drove into an artificial green space, and finally stopped in a manor surrounded by greenery.

In such a country with yellow sand everywhere and lack of fresh water, there can still be such a vast garden. It is simply inhumane!
This should only be the personal residence of the eldest prince, not the royal palace. After all, his identity in the eyes of the other party is just that of an important jeweler.

But no matter what, for the other party to choose a car like that to pick him up, it already showed his intention to make friends.

The weather was hot and muggy, and the courtyard was not suitable for receiving guests. The eldest prince Nathanael and a woman with a veil covering her head stood side by side in the front hall to greet them. The woman was none other than Princess Amina.

After some polite remarks, Mo Bei took out a small box, opened it and handed it to the couple, saying that it was a small gift for the princess.Inside was a pair of ruby ​​earrings, which could be considered a great gift. Amina covered her mouth and breathed softly, her eyes full of joy.

The customs here are straightforward, and there is no need to go round and round when giving gifts, which suits Mo Bei's liking.

Nathanael is a calm and reserved man, nearly forty years old, who doesn't talk much.His wife, Amina, was quite talkative, and she was particularly fond of Tasereth's appearance.

However, the banshee couldn't interact with her other than smiling and nodding, so the scene was a little less lively. . .

Mo Bei also saw that women were really interested in jewelry, and the eldest prince was just acting like a landlord here.

From the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of Lin Zhaoxi kneading her napkin, and he knew that the girl was getting nervous again.

She was under the greatest pressure when she was present. Not only did she have to listen carefully to every speech, but she also had to express herself as accurately and appropriately as possible. It was really difficult for her if she was not used to this kind of situation.

He looked to the side and saw a pair of medieval full-cover armor standing in the corner of the hall, holding a long sword, and it was obviously not the same thing.

For him, this was something that caught his attention immediately, so he looked around again and found that there were two sheathed scimitars hanging side by side on the wall on one side, which were quite beautifully decorated.

Nathanael, who didn't speak much at first, noticed the interested look in Mo Bei's eyes and said:
"Mr. Mo also likes swords and armor?"

As soon as these words came out, Mo Bei immediately perked up. It seemed that these things were placed there because of the owner's preference and were not purely decorative.

"I have some superficial understanding, but I really like it. With all due respect, I wonder if I can appreciate His Highness's collection?"

As soon as the words came out of his mouth, he felt that he was a little thoughtless.

The relationship between the two parties is not very close yet, so if they were to play with swords and swords at close range, they were afraid that the other party would have concerns about safety and convenience. This request would probably make the other party feel embarrassed.

Unexpectedly, Nathanael stood up happily and stretched out his hand to Mo Bei:
"How can I say no to a guest's request!"

Amina sat aside, pretending to smile helplessly, and let out a sigh.

Mo Bei smiled apologetically at her, stood up and left the table, following Nathanael towards the two scimitars.

He was selling jewelry just to make money. In fact, he was forced to do so, but if they talked about these things, it would be a common hobby.

Nathanael took off one of the scimitars and pulled out a blade about a foot long. It was densely covered with textures as fine as hair.

He solemnly said:
"My love for swords is more about their true value. If it is a dull sword, no matter how gorgeous the decoration is or how expensive the gems are inlaid, it is not worth mentioning to me."

After listening to what Lin Zhaoxi translated, Mo Bei felt like he had found a soulmate. When he saw Nathanael lowering his hands after sheathing the scimitar, he also stretched out his hands to catch it, took two steps back, and pulled it out completely. .

It is indeed a weapon that can kill people with blood.

When he was in Sanctuary, every time he picked up a new weapon, he would first look at its attributes. Now, he could put aside those considerations and carefully feel the center of gravity and grip of the scimitar in his hand. He would not be confused because of his improved vision. Disdainful of the iron-like weapons in his hands.

It can be said that as soon as he got the knife, his whole temperament changed significantly.

"Mr. Mo has specially practiced sword fighting?" Nathanael's face became a little more joyful when he met someone of the same kind.

Mo Bei wanted to say that this is how we eat, but he still carried forward the traditional Chinese virtues and smiled modestly:
"Practice casually."
