Dominate the Treacherous Realm

　　 "Ms. Audrey, do you have something to look for Dad? He is going out and has something to do. It seems that there is something wrong with the store in the warehouse in the warehouse. You..."

　　 "No, Jenkins, I didn't want to come to see daddy, I am here to see you...this lady too."

　　 Miss Audrey's last sentence showed a very reluctant tone, and the middle-aged woman next to her was not angry because of it.

"I?"

　　 Jenkins pointed at himself, looked suspiciously at the stranger next to Miss Audrey, and then slowly nodded:

　　 "Well... please sit down and I'll get some tea. I remember my father's friend sent some good tea from Shire. He shouldn't mind me using them to greet guests."

Section 777 Chapter 761 Robert and the Diviner

　　 In the old antique shop, the apprentices are busy preparing tea. Before the three of them sat down, Jenkins deliberately flipped the sign at the entrance of the store to 【rest】, and then asked the two women about their purpose.

　　 "This is... my friend Miss Broniance... is my friend in the church."

　　 Miss Audrey introduced softly, but still seemed a little reluctant.

　　 "Oh, hello, nice to meet you, Mrs. Broniance."

　　 "Miss Bronie Anse."

　　 She corrected, Jenkins immediately reached out to shake hands, but the woman just extended the back of her hand to him. Jenkins nodded knowingly, and gave a kiss in accordance with standard etiquette.

　　 "Your etiquette is very interesting, it seems to have some northern colors. When I was young, I stayed in the Kingdom of Hampawo for a long time, and I had a good relationship with the royal etiquette teachers."

　　 The woman said with a smile, while looking carefully at the whole shop. Her eyes rested on the cat on the counter, and then moved away naturally.

　　 The sleepy cat stood up and adjusted an angle to continue lying down. It didn't like this uninvited woman.

　　 Jenkins too, his inspiration tells him that this woman has another purpose.

　　 "Hampavo Kingdom? Yes, my etiquette teacher did stay there too, that noble lady is..."

　　 He was telling a lie that he had fabricated for a long time, but the door of the store was actually pushed open again at this moment. Walking in was Robert Williams, Jenkins' father, with the **** suitcase in his hand.

　　 When I saw the cat on the counter, I knew that Jenkins was in the store, but when he saw that he was talking with someone, the handsome middle-aged man wanted to wait a while. His eyes moved to the faces of the three people talking, and Robert frowned.

　　 "Oh, father. What do you want?"

　　 Seeing Robert come to the store to look for him rarely, Jenkins immediately thought something had happened at home. He abandoned the two women and stood up, and asked in panic as he walked:

　　 "What's wrong? At home..."

　　 "It's okay, but some business matters are looking for you."

　　 Standing on the mat at the door, he shook the suitcase in his hand at Jenkins, and there was a sound of rocks rolling in it. But Robert still did not look at Jenkins's face, but at the face of Miss Brogniance.

　　 This must be something wrong. According to Jenkins's understanding, his father Robert is a dedicated man just like him.

　　 "Sorry, ma'am, have we met somewhere before?"

　　 If other men say something like this, it must be an unkind accusation, but Jenkins knows Robert.

　　 "Sorry sir, I miss us..."

　　Miss Bronie Anse was unhappy and wanted to deny it, but her eyes suddenly narrowed:

　　 "Williamt?"

　　 She said in surprise, and then looked at Jenkins and Robert again-their faces were very similar. Of the three children in the Williams family, Jenkins is the closest in appearance to Robert.

　　 "Oh, I remember!"

　　 Robert's eyes widened, and he stretched out his fingers to the opponent very impolitely, with a loud and scary voice, as if he had discovered that his son actually has many lovers:

　　 "God, I remember, I remember. You are the female fortune-teller who smuggled with me on the same boat when I fled to Nolan thirty years ago!"

　　 "Are you not dead?"

　　 "Are you not dead?"

　　 Robert and Miss Broniance said at the same time.

　　 Jenkins didn't know what was going on, so he motioned Miss Audrey to say something with his eyes. She shook her head slightly, obviously not knowing what was going on.

　　 "Father, you... know this guest?"

"Yes Yes."

　　 Robert looked very excited. He stuffed the suitcase into Jenkins' hands, and then quickly introduced:

"I didn't expect that after so many years, I would still meet an old person. Jenkins, you should know about the escape from my hometown 30 years ago. At that time, this lady was on the same boat with me, but disappeared midway. I thought... .. It turns out that you are not dead, which is really lucky."

　　 "I feel lucky too..."

　　Miss Bronie Anse has adjusted her expression. She stood up and left the table in front of the fireplace and walked to the door, still looking at the faces of Jenkins and Robert:

　　 "I remember that when I left that ship, the entire ship was infected with the plague. I didn't expect you... this is really lucky."

　　 Even though I said so, there is still this strong unbelievable in the woman's heart. She no longer cared about the purpose of coming to the antique shop today, and chatted with the excited Robert again. After a polite farewell, she took Miss Audrey and left quickly.

　　 "Teacher, what are you going to do?"

　　 After confirming that neither of the two in the shop could see outside, Miss Audrey threw away the middle-aged woman's hand full of anger.

　　 "Teacher, what are you going to do today, and why do you know Jenkins' father."

　　 "Today was really unexpected...well, since you want to know...that was a mission when you were young..."

　　Ms. Bronie Anse's complexion was very serious, but it was not like introducing what she was doing at that time:

　　 "The problem is not with that mission, the problem is why Mr. Robert Williams is still alive."

　　 "What's the problem with this? Although the plague has a high fatality rate, it is not without the possibility of recovery. Maybe his luck is better?"

　　 Miss Audrey said nonchalantly, and the two walked closer to the alley together. On the side of the alley, there is a peculiar smell of domestic garbage piled up. These garbage should have existed for a long time, because it is still covered with snow from the previous few days. The black cat, who was rummaging for food, heard the sound of footsteps, turned his back and roared at the two women, and then ran to the depths of the alley.

　　 "The problem is not the plague, the problem is that I fortune-telled the fate of Mr. William on that ship on the return journey from the mission. His fate is clear. He will die there. He has no future at all."

　　 Miss Broniance said, and then stretched out two fingers:

"After I was 30 years old, I only made two completely wrong divinations. One time when I was 30 years old was not mature enough, and one time because it involved the plan of a great god. Now you tell me, Audrey, William What is special about Mute...or rather, why did you come and stay in Nolan?"

"I?"

　　 Miss Audrey reached out angrily and pressed the middle-aged woman's finger down, without the demeanor that Jenkins showed at all:

　　 "What am I doing, don't you really know? Mr. Bronie Anse!"

Chapter 778 Chapter 762 Chapter William's Request

　　 The women in the alley are angry, but in the antique shop a few hundred feet away, the communication is much more friendly.

　　 Jenkins is very curious about what happened to the encounter 30 years ago, but Robert actually doesn't have many memories. During the great plague, he left his hometown and took a boat to Nolan, but in fact he was infected with the plague after he got on the boat-most of the people in that boat were all, so during the ocean travel, he was half asleep and half awake.

　　 has a deep memory of Miss Broniance, because she does fortune-telling for everyone for free, which is one of the few interesting things in the trip. At that time, the woman thought that everyone in the boat would die before landing, but the people in the cabin were not angry. Unknown stowaways brought the plague onto the ship, and they were ready to accept their fate when the first patient showed obvious symptoms.

　　 But the woman's fortune-telling made a mistake. In the end, Robert arrived in Nolan City smoothly, and took root here, and even had a wife and children. Over the years, Robert occasionally dreamed of the journey accompanied by death. He could not forget that experience for the rest of his life.

　　 "So, how many people live in that boat?"

　　 Jenkins is still interested in this question.

"Ok......"

　　 Robert did not seem to want to talk about this question, but he still gave an answer:

"When I docked, there were five people left, including the captain. But a week after I went ashore, I was the only one left... Strangely speaking, since then, except for one accidental fall into the water. As for the cold, I never got sick again. This may be a sequelae of the plague...Forget it, let’s not talk about it."

　　 He shook his head sadly, and took the suitcase from Jenkins.

　　 The reason why Robert came to the store this time was indeed because of "business matters." The business here refers to the silver mine investment project that Jenkins participated in. Robert stood mysteriously and opened the suitcase in front of the counter, deliberately covering the doorway and shop window with his body, for fear that a third person would see it.

　　 "Oh, sage~"

　　 Jenkins widened his eyes and sighed, and even briefly forgot what had just happened. If you use an exaggeration to describe it, his face must be covered with red light at this moment.

　　 "This is... rough ruby? But, aren't we investing in silver mines?"

　　 In the suitcase is a huge stone, or more accurately, a rough stone containing rubies. On the surface, the ruby ​​in the stone should occupy most of the volume of the stone. Although the value is far less than the head-sized sapphire of Jenkins, it is quite amazing.

　　 "Yes, we are indeed investing in silver mines... it is written like this on paper."

Robert smiled at his son: "But you don't really think so, do you? Silver mine investment can get 200% of the profit in a short period of time? Ha~ Jenkins, think about it, now You are what people think of as a financial expert."

　　 "I probably understand."

　　 At this level, Jenkins is a fool if he still doesn’t understand. He stretched out his hand and rubbed the surface of the rough stone in the box:

　　 "So, is it for tax? Or is it for other?"

"Both. Silver mines and gem mines are very different. It is very complicated to explain. But high profits always require small means. Look, this was just dug from the depths of a newly opened mine yesterday. But no one knows except me."

　　 "Oh, this is really amazing."

　　 Jenkins nodded again, but did not comment on this approach. He is a person with vested interests, and he has no ethics and cleanliness. Since he can earn more money, he will naturally have no opinions.

　　 "But you came to me, didn't you just show off this thing to me?"

　　 Jenkins patted the stone, and the chocolate also came over at this time, stretched his head to the box and sniffed, and immediately revealed an expression of disgust.

"of course not."

　　 Robert shook his head, re-covered the box, refused Jenkins's move to pour tea for him, and tidyed up his dark blue tie behind him:

"I discussed with your mother. You are now the age of marriage. We all think that something must be done for you. Now you put it away, find a suitable craftsman to polish it into jewelry, and then give it to the girl you like. Today It is the first day of [Sun and Recovery Moon]. Mary asks you to go home for dinner with a girl with this jewelry before the end of the month..."

　　 "Father, this..."

　　 Jenkins even interrupted Robert without being polite, but Robert did not give him a chance to continue.

　　 He rarely used a serious tone to Jenkins, which made Jenkins' head automatically reflect some unpleasant things that the original owner had when he was a child:

"Jenkins, I think it’s a bit anxious, but it’s the right thing to do. Think about it, how old are you this year? We are very worried about you. No matter what you use, we will watch it before the last day of this month. Until you and the girl show up at the door of your house. It’s not difficult for you. Bishop Parode talked about it with us last week."

　　 Jenkins planned that Dad might leak Hathaway and Britney’s affairs, but he didn’t expect that something went wrong with the bishop in the end:

　　 "But, father..."

　　 He tried to chip in again, but the old Williams was obviously better:

"No but. I know the best gemstone craftsman, but I am not going to introduce it to you. Jenkins, you take this gemstone to polish, carve, give away, and then take the lucky girl home. This is The last test I will give you as you grow up, do it, Jenkins."

　　 "But, father..."

　　 "I believe you can do it, and your mother and I are determined to this matter, the same as we unanimously decided to send you to learn a craft six months ago. But this time, you don't want to get unexpected luck again."

　　 Robert looked into Jenkins' eyes calmly. Jenkins subconsciously wanted to dodge, but he kept reminding himself that he was Jenkins Redampout Williams.

　　 "Okay, I see, father."

　　 He could only bite the bullet and agreed, and Robert nodded.

　　 He realized that the remarks just now were a bit harsh, and Robert could not bear to blame this second son who most resembled himself. The tone was a little gentler, and he warned:

"Actually, you don’t have to be under pressure, Jenkins. Both Mary and I know your situation. Bishop Parrod gave a detailed introduction. This is not strictly a dinner invitation. I just want to see if you have the courage to step forward. One step. You can tell your female partner what I have said, and I believe no one will refuse such an invitation."

Chapter 779 Chapter Seven Hundred and Sixty Three Prophecy

　　 Robert thought he used the softest tone, but Jenkins still felt cold in his back. He looked at his father with pleading eyes, but the middle-aged man was unmoved.

　　 "Yes, father."

　　 Jenkins hoped that the despair expressed in his tone would be felt by Robert, but he didn't seem to see anything. When he left, he told Jenkins that he was free to go home for dinner.

　　 Soon after Robert left, the shop was quiet again. Jenkins could even hear his own heartbeat, pressing his right hand on the suitcase, constantly searching for ways to solve the month-end puzzle.

　　 Although it was something that I had to face after 28 days, Jenkins knew very well that the more he held the "still far away" mentality, the faster time would pass.

　　 Chocolate yawned boredly, and was not affected by the desperate mood of the young man. It is a little looking forward to the dinner at the end of the month, not looking forward to food, but simply wanting to know exactly what choice Jenkins will make.

Outside the window is a street shrouded in fog. People are constantly walking out of the fog and disappearing into the fog. How much Jenkins hopes that there is a kind lady now, suddenly opened the door and said that he could go to eat that meal, and after the meal Disappear forever.

　　 "If so, would that be great?"
