Infinite Script Killing

Chapter 487 Morgan Family

Do you want to save face and suffer the consequences?

of course not.

In a simple sentence, Shaer truly stated some of the small rules of the upper class society in this era.

I can be down and out, but I can't lose my dignity.

If I lose my dignity, I am worthless.

To put it bluntly, this is a bit like the character of ancient scholars. It doesn’t matter if you are poor, but you can’t lose your character. Without this character, you will be worthless wherever you go.

Xu Tong felt like a bright mirror in his heart, but he still had to look like he didn't understand.

Just as Shar said, Morgan's house was not far away. The two of them walked there in less than three minutes. This was because Shar deliberately slowed down his pace.

Outside the front door of the Morgan family, the Morgan family members were already dressed up and waiting.

Even pedestrians passing by couldn't help but stop and watch, as if they were curious about who could make the Morgan family so grand.

It was not until Xu Tong and Shaer came that everyone had the answer in their hearts.

But what's interesting is that Shar didn't greet him immediately. Instead, he took out his pocket watch, as if he was waiting to bring something with him.

It wasn't until about ten seconds later that Shar walked up to the groom and handed a penny into the groom's hand: "Please continue to wait here. From now on, every minute of your time will belong to the groom." Our Corleone family, please remember this day, it will be the most proud thing for you in the future."

The groom was also sensitively aware of the gazes cast by the people around him. This kind of attention made him feel his head buzzing and his whole body became excited.

He didn't know what kind of family the Corleone family was. Even for a commoner like him, even the owner of the mansion in front of him and the Morgan family had only a vague idea of ​​what the Morgan family did. He only knew that the people here were very rich.

But at this moment, the groom actually felt a strong sense of honor in his heart.

This was something he had never felt before, and his face turned red with excitement.

Xu Tong stood aside and watched this scene, secretly speechless.

Sal is 100% an ordinary person, but when he changed his clothes and rented this carriage for a penny a minute, he felt a different feeling, as if invisible. The lieutenant general focused all the spotlight on himself.

This kind of thing is called "potential!"

Borrowing the momentum of others to promote your own momentum, invisibly forming a huge aura.

In fact, this method is not uncommon. In reality, some so-called qigong masters can quickly stand out using this method.

But there are definitely not many people who can master the art with such ease and proficiency as Shar.

Xu Tong was free from restraint today and his eyes were opened.

This made him suddenly think of the confidence in Shar's eyes when he swore in the name of God just now. It seemed that the old butler was really not placating himself casually.

At this time, Xu Tong also received a task prompt from the main line.

"Main mission 1: Please start your performance.

For today, the Morgan family has specially hosted a banquet for many local celebrities. For the Morgan family, this is a rare opportunity to get close to the upper class. As today's vase, your every move will affect the future image of the Morgan family.

Mission goal: Try to make a good impression on the Morgan family.

Mission punishment: If your score is lower than D, the Morgan family will cancel your engagement and kick you out. At the same time, your financial privileges will be taken away and you will be marked as a "laughing stock" until the end of this script. "

Just like the previous script world, although I have gained the advantage of a new identity by relying on the privilege of wealth, this advantage is not so easy to obtain.

Even if you fail, it will even be accompanied by a passivity that puts you at an absolute disadvantage.

Reminiscent of the fact that this script is in hunting mode, which means that there will be other players here, even certified players. If you want to have an absolute advantage over these certified players, then the Morgan family in front of you must take advantage of them. Down.

Thinking of this, Xu Tong already made a decision in his mind.

After Shaer solved the groom's problem, he stood behind Xu Tong again, and the two of them walked step by step in front of the Morgan family with steady steps.

Facing the uncle walking in front of them, everyone in the Morgan family exchanged glances with each other, and everyone's face was extremely excited.

It seems that he did not expect that this defeated family could still have such an aura.

Especially Mr. Morgan, who facilitated this marriage.

Originally, the family was not optimistic about this marriage, and the fact that the Corleone family was falling apart was no longer news. However, Mr. Morgan fought against all odds and finalized the marriage.

Until now, when he saw the young and handsome little earl coming towards him, Master Morgan's fat face had already revealed a smile that could not be concealed.

He stepped forward and tried his best to conceal the excitement and joy in his heart. He put one hand flat on his chest and bowed deeply to Xu Tong.

In fact, this kind of cliché etiquette fell out of fashion more than ten years ago.

But Mr. Morgan is an excellent businessman. He knows how to maximize the value of a person, a thing, or even a penny.

This is why he insisted on waiting outside the door with his family.

"Welcome, Lord Earl. We have been looking forward to your arrival for a long time. Please allow me to introduce my family to you."

After Xu Tong nodded slightly, he met Grandpa Morgan's wife under the introduction of Master Morgan.

Even though Mr. Morgan is fifty years old, his wife looks only in her thirties, and she is even more charming under the luxurious dress.

"You are more handsome than I imagined. I believe you will live happily here."

Although this sentence was written by Mr. Morgan long ago and asked to be recited by him, for some reason, when this sentence came out of her mouth, it always made people feel like they had walked into a brothel and faced the old man. Mommy feeling.

On the side, Mr. Morgan's mouth twitched a few times and he looked sideways at Xu Tong.

After Xu Tong smiled in return, following the etiquette in Kevin's memory, he stepped forward and placed one hand flat on his chest, leaning slightly behind him, holding up Mrs. Morgan and kissing the back of her hand gently.

Not a word was spoken throughout the entire process, and the high cooldown wasn't annoying.

The next woman is Mr. Morgan’s daughter and his fiancée, Miss Josie.

Although they are fiancées, this is the first time the two have met.

There was no expression on Miss Qiao Xi's face. She just rolled up her skirt and bowed slightly behind her, then stood there expressionless. It was obvious that she was not cold to her airborne fiancé.

After Mr. Morgan noticed that there were already many people watching on the street, which was enough to achieve the effect he wanted, he took Xu Tong and Shaer into his mansion with satisfaction.

For this first meeting, Mr. Morgan prepared an extremely sumptuous lunch.

The most famous specialty from Amantes is a delicious ingredient called golden sand fish.

The meat of this fish is tender and delicious, making it a top cooking ingredient, but its bones are more valuable.

The brittle bones were filled with thick fish marrow and shone with a faint golden light, as if there were countless golden sand grains inside.

This bone marrow has a gelatinous texture and an extremely delicious taste.

What fascinates people the most is its unique effect, which can strengthen weapons. Even an eighty-year-old man can briefly return to the peak of his youth after eating it.

In aristocratic circles where private lives were chaotic, a bottle of this stuff could be sold for three pounds.

Even in a prosperous commercial city like Amantes, people's average monthly income is only 15 sulers, or 180 pence.

One pound is 20 sulers, which sounds like a lot, but this is the average monthly income. For a truly excellent worker, 5 sulers every month is considered very good.

Shar looked at the delicious food on the table and couldn't help swallowing, but he still maintained the reserve of a butler.

The only worry may be whether his young master will reveal his true colors.

Even on the way here, I had already eaten half of the bread for the young master.

Compared with the delicious food on the table, those gorgeous tableware are even more dazzling.

The exquisite silverware knives and forks are paired with oriental-style dinner plates, which looks particularly weird.

In Mr. Morgan's words, these dinner plates are all porcelain from the mysterious East, and each one is valuable.

At this time, Xu Tong noticed that Miss Qiao Qian, who was sitting opposite, did not use a knife and fork, but instead used chopsticks.

This still made Xu Tong stunned for a moment, and there was a moment of doubt in his heart.

Noticing Xu Tong's gaze, Miss Qiao Qian finally showed a slight smile and introduced him: "In the mysterious ancient oriental country, this is a more intelligent way of tableware. I learned it from an oriental businessman."

When Qiao Qian said this, she couldn't help but reveal a bit of arrogance, and even specifically signaled the servant to give Xu Tong a pair of chopsticks: "Although it is very simple, it is still a bit difficult. Mr. Kevin, you can give it a try."

"Josie!"

On the side, Mr. Morgan interrupted his daughter with an unhappy expression. Just as his daughter said, chopsticks are not that easy to use. He has tried it many times, not to mention picking up a noodle, even a piece of bread. If you don’t get up, God knows how those Eastern people would think of such difficult tableware.

Xu Tong smiled, but it was not an elegant smile, but a bit of a joke.

Forget it if you're comparing yourself to others, are you competing with a Chinese man wearing a white man's skin to use chopsticks? ?

I saw him casually picking up the chopsticks, picking up a fish bone lightly and putting it to his mouth. His skillful technique made Miss Qiao Qian's eyes widen in disbelief. She had spent a long time practicing using chopsticks. Got the hang of it.

"A long time ago, our family has started to deal with Eastern businessmen, and even invited a mentor from the East for me."

Sha'er, who was standing behind Xu Tong, cooperated and added: "Yes, the Corleone family's caravan has had in-depth transactions with the mysterious ancient country in the East for a long time."

The mysterious East? How is it possible? Their fleet has not appeared on the ocean for a long, long time.

But who doesn’t know how to brag? You can’t find it now anyway.

Of course Mr. Morgan would not believe it, but when he saw Xu Tong easily holding two pieces of wood between his fingertips, he had to believe it and could only praise: "I knew that Corleone's inheritance has never been cut off. "

Qiao Xi's insignificant little plan failed, and she could only eat a few mouthfuls of food with a face full of disappointment, then stood up and left.

Mr. Morgan looked apologetic about this.

In this regard, what can Xu Tong say? After all, people have to bow their heads under the roof. Who wants me to covet your resources?

In the last script world, Xu Tong has fully experienced the convenience brought by wealth and power. Those conveniences are by no means something you can achieve if you have the strength.

The delicacies that were constantly being served on the dinner table were filled with alluring aromas. Even Shaer couldn't help but swallow two mouthfuls of spit while standing behind Xu Tong.

But what pleased Shaer was that Xu Tong always maintained the process of chewing carefully and slowly, without even making the slightest sound, and still maintained the elegance and dignity of a noble.

It seems that the young master has really grown up.

Shar felt relieved, but also felt a little distressed. In his opinion, the young master had experienced too much in the past two years.

His father was shot dead and his family property was robbed. The innocent young master began to change a little as the days passed from one meal to the next.

This may also be a good thing.

Shar thought to himself.

Xu Tong stopped eating after eating a small amount of food.

Mr. Morgan keenly noticed that Xu Tong only tasted one bite of each of these foods.

A shrewd man like Mr. Morgan knows very well that the Corleone family can no longer afford a single gold pound, and even the clothes they wear are of a style long ago.

But precisely because of this, Grandpa Morgan was particularly happy and even felt that it was worth every penny.

Grandpa Morgan was happy, but Miss Qiao Xi, who was sitting opposite Xu Tong, seemed very uncomfortable. After dinner, Xu Tong was arranged in an exquisite room. Standing in front of the door and window of the room, you could admire the busy servants in the manor. , are setting up for tonight's dinner.

At this time, Xu Tong suddenly noticed that a black car drove directly into the manor outside the door. Although the car was unmarked, the unique cross on the front of the car already informed people of the background of the car owner.

"Oh, it's the church's car. It looks like the Morgan family is bound to get it tonight."

Sha'er stood behind Xu Tong, with a faint smile on his face.

Once Mr. Morgan officially announces the marriage between the two families in front of the church members, the wedding will be officially recognized by the church.

From then on, Master Kevin officially became the son-in-law of the Morgan family, even if he was a wife.

At this time, the maid brought hot water and two sets of brand new clothes. It was obvious that Mr. Morgan still cared about their old clothes.

After the maid poured the water into the tub, she did not leave, but wanted to carry out the next service.

But this service was seriously rejected by Xu Tong.

This made Shar on the side very unhappy.

After the maid left, Shar reminded him: "Master, you shouldn't refuse. This is your dignity."

Xu Tong was stunned for a moment, then ignored Shaer's suggestion, took off his tight clothes, and jumped into the bucket.

Seeing that Xu Tong didn't speak, Shaer was about to continue persuading him when he saw Xu Tong took out a ring and put it on his hand. The gems on the ring reflected the charming light in the sun. Xu Tong played with the ring and seemed to smile. Fei smiled and said, "But I think dignity is more real if you earn it yourself."
