Words become gods: run away, this player is too scary

Chapter 259
Oysters, lobster, mango milk pudding, pea stewed lamb, grilled chicken wings with honey sauce.

Looking at the sumptuous food on the table, William Mark couldn't help but move his index fingers.

Just smelling the fragrance made him feel very happy.

As a true gentleman, he has always had requirements for good food.

The cooking skills of their chef are definitely among the best in Grant City.

He has always been very picky when it comes to eating.

But the lunch prepared by Cexili was delicious and delicious, which made him very satisfied.

“It was delicious!”

He couldn't help but envy Su Ke for being able to obtain such a maid.

She is young, beautiful, energetic, and has such good cooking skills.

If he hadn't felt that it was so unreasonable, he would have paid a lot of money to recruit Cecily to work for him.

For this he is willing to pay 10 gold pounds per week, which is already comparable to some elites in the bank.

With such an income, Grant City is already considered a high-income group at the top of the pyramid.

Cecily also looked at Su Ke curiously.

"Is Mr. Oz Grant a prophet? How did he know in advance that Mr. William Mack would come to visit?"

No matter how she looked at it, she felt it was magical.

She knew William Mack.

This is not the first time William Mark has come here.

He had visited Su Ke with Jacob Ruiz of the Black Tiger Gang a few days ago.

It was hard for her to believe that such a high-ranking banker as William Mack was actually friends with Jacob Ruiz.

After having enough wine and food, Cexili quickly started clearing the dining table, and Su Ke took William Mark to the study.

........................

The study room is not large, and a kerosene lamp is placed on the desk with a burning flame.

A large amount of oil has been discovered in this era, but there is a lack of processing technology.

You can only rely on a simple distillation process to separate components with different boiling points in petroleum.

The only thing that is utilized is the lighter component of kerosene, and the other components can only be burned as waste.

"Maybe if I have a chance, I can try to build an internal combustion engine..."

There is already a steam engine in this era, and if we go one step further, it will not be particularly difficult to create an internal combustion engine.

Compared with steam engines, internal combustion engines are the basis of real industry.

If this could be achieved, the world's production efficiency could be increased several times or even dozens of times.

However, Su Ke was not ready to implement this plan in the short term.

Don't take too big a step at once, otherwise you will fall.

The profits from bicycles can already bring him a lot of benefits. If he adds an internal combustion engine, he will immediately become the target of public criticism.

How much money do you have and how much do you earn?

“If you want to protect your interests, you must have sufficient strength.”

Otherwise, it would be the crime of carrying a jade.

He is well aware of this truth.

Before Sequence 3, Su Ke had no intention of taking out the internal combustion engine.

After all, this is an important invention that can change the entire world.

Before you have enough strength, this kind of thing is used as a wedding dress for others.

Under the circumstances of average temptation, everyone is a gentleman full of grace and can strictly abide by the spirit of the contract.

If the temptation is too great, what is the so-called spirit of contract?

That's a fart!

Still kind of stinky.

It's shameless to just mess around on the spot.

At that time, the so-called patent protection will have no effect at all.

They may even be targeted by many parties for this reason.

He has seen too many such things on earth.

After asking William Mark to sit down, Su Ke took out a cigar.

These were cigars given to him by Jacob Ruiz, from the New World.

William Mark put the cigar in front of his nose and took a deep sniff, his eyes shining brightly.

"nice one!"

Thick appearance, wrapped in a natural protective layer like oil.

Even one stick costs at least one gold pound, and it's still priceless.

Cigars from the New World are different from cigars produced locally in the Kingdom of England.

The slippery texture feels heavy in the hand.

Su Ke took out a cigar scissor from the desk. The scissors were slightly tilted and smoothly cut a standard thirty-degree angle.

Then take out a match and light the cigar.

A soft, bright orange light emitted, and the cigar exuded a fragrant and authentic flavor.

William Mark closed his eyes and enjoyed it. A burst of spicy air filled his mouth. He stirred the tip of his tongue in his mouth to allow the smoke to fully circulate in his mouth.

Then he parted his lips and slowly exhaled the smoke from his mouth.

Su Ke waited quietly for the other party to enjoy the cigar.

To be honest, he didn't know what good things about cigars were until now.

In his opinion, it is worse than a normal cigarette!
But William Mack was particularly fond of cigars.

Is this the so-called aristocratic temperament?

It is said that William Mark still has a knighthood.

He is just a false noble with only reputation and no territory.

In this world, the titles of nobles are the same as those in ancient Western countries on earth, and are generally divided into two types.

One has a territory, and he is the master in his own territory.

For example, the current Earl of Grant, Grant City must pay him tens of thousands of gold pounds in taxes every year.

The other kind has empty reputation and no territory. This is the so-called false nobility.

But even so, a noble's name is also a symbol of status and strength.

William Mark himself had a moderate influence.

But his family can be regarded as the most powerful business family in Grant City.

A truly wealthy home.

If they hadn't met him too late, Su Ke would definitely have dragged him into joining the bicycle plan.

But now that we have reached a cooperation with the Black Tiger Gang, it would be unreasonable to invite him to join.

Even so, William Mark promised to provide channels for bicycle sales.

As a friend, William Mark is still very good.

"I'm so sorry, look at what's wrong with me!"

After having enough fun, William Mark looked at Su Ke apologetically.

He has a habit of especially liking cigars, especially this high-quality cigar.

When enjoying a cigar, he would often ignore the occasion.

There have been a lot of jokes over the years because of this habit.

"Nothing, who doesn't have any hobbies yet?"

Zuko took out a cigar box from the storage space of the Soul Eclipse Ring.

There are almost 25 cigars in this box, and there are still more than 20 cigars left.

“These cigars were given to me by Jacob, and I don’t really like the taste of cigars.

I might as well borrow flowers and offer them to Buddha, and I’ll give them to you. "

After speaking, he handed the cigar box to William Mark.

"This... then thank you!"

William Mark accepted the gift with great pleasure.

At the same time, he subconsciously glanced at the soul-eating ring on Su Ke's finger.

He had always thought that the Soul Eclipse Ring was just an ordinary ring.

But he didn't expect this to be an extraordinary piece of equipment with the ability to store space.

Extraordinary equipment with this ability is very rare, and it is also extremely expensive, making it almost impossible to buy it.

Even if he was not short of money, he could not obtain such equipment.

His eyes were full of envy.
