In the auditorium of the manor, the congratulations of the guests came to an end.
Lin Feng watched everyone enjoying Chinese food with Sven or rough arrogance, a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, and he had taken the first step in the plan to be able to make his own world in a foreign country.
However, after the guard at the door came in and whispered in his ear, the smile on his lips gradually disappeared.
“Mr. Howlett is here, and he is waiting for your reception at the door!”
With a wave of his hand to let the guards go down first, Lin Feng slowly stood up and said to the guests in a loud voice.
“Gentlemen and ladies, I’m sorry to miss for a while, a distinguished guest has just arrived, I need to go and receive it!”
The guests at the scene began to discuss, who has such a big face?
You must know that when they came to the Lin Manor, they did not have such a privilege, and they could be personally greeted by the patriarch of the Lin family.
“Could it be that Commissioner Montkins of the police department or Chief Edhausen of the tax office is here?”
“Don’t talk nonsense, these two big people won’t be so condescending!”
“Have you forgotten that before the Lin family arrived here, the Haulit family was the most powerful. I think it must have been old Horit who came to attract Mr. Lin out to greet him. ”
Someone guessed the truth, but others apparently didn’t believe it.
They are different from the new Lin family, and the old Haulitt’s personality is hard to believe, he will take the initiative to visit the rising star.
That Mr. Howlett has a strong aggressive disposition, a tough personality on the outside, and everyone who faces him will feel oppressive.
Even though his father was only the first mate of an old ocean-going whaling ship, the elder Horit never felt inferior, but at the age of 17, with a teacher’s flintlock gun and only 3 pounds 15 shillings, followed the fleet of the British Empire and became the first colonists to set foot on the land of Ghana.
Old Howlitt often said that he was one of the pioneers of this great era, a new aristocrat who brought the flame of civilization to this barren land, and an adventurer who was not willing to follow his dreams.
Such a proud and stubborn big man made an unnatural move today, and the rich businessmen and farmers present could not help but raise their evaluation of the Lin family again.
The waiters who kept serving drinks and pastries from the guests were surprised to find that the guests, who had previously been full of contempt and disdain, had become polite and smiled and thanked them when they received the drinks or pastries.
At the gate of the manor, old Howlitt looked at the manor owner who was gradually approaching, and his tightly locked brows relaxed.
“Respected Lin, I’m really sorry to disturb your banquet!”
The old man, who had never bowed to anyone, took off his hat for the first time and bowed slightly to say words containing apologies.
Lin Feng walked to him in three or two steps, reached out to hold his shriveled but energetic hand, and said with a smile.
“Mr. Howlett is polite, this is not the place to talk, let’s go in and have a good chat!”
Saying that, he pulled old Haulitt and strode into the manor.
The guards led the knights into the guardhouse to shelter from the wind and snow, and strangers with weapons were not allowed to enter the manor.
Old Horit walked all the way, habitually scanning all over the estate with his sharp eyes, which was the after-effect of a long struggle with the local natives after setting foot in Ghana.
On the way from the gate of the manor to the auditorium, he had already seen no less than 12 hidden secret posts and dense traps under the wall.
When Lin Feng took the old Haulit into the auditorium, the expressions of the guests were extremely surprised, as if they saw the sun rising from the west, and the rich businessman who guessed the truth was even more determined in his heart to make his daughter the lover of the Lin clan’s patriarch.
Once the Lin family and the Howlett family join forces, the situation in Edmund is about to change drastically, and no rich merchant or farmer can oppose the union of two behemoths.
Ignoring the guests who wanted to talk, Lin Feng took the old Howlit and went straight to the study, which was where he received important guests and the safest and most confidential place in the entire manor.
The two sat opposite each other, and the housekeeper Lin Shuhao brought a cup of tea and coffee, which were placed on the coffee table in front of the two.
“Mr. Haulit, we have an old saying in Daxia, if you don’t go to the Three Treasures Hall if you have anything, just say it bluntly.”
Lin Feng picked up the tea cup and took a sip of the fragrant tea.
In fact, when he held the calloused hand of the old Horlett, the telepathy had already read his thoughts and memories, knowing that this old guy had come to ask him to save his grandson.
I also knew that it was because Lin Wei was shot in the heart last time, but he jumped alive the next day, which caused the other party to come to the door.
“Hmph, when the matter of old Haulitt is over, Lin Wei, you will let me go to the new barracks and return to the furnace!”
Old Haulit’s gaze withdrew from the butler, and sighed in his heart that the strength of even a butler in the Lin family was no worse than that of the knights under him.
“Since Mr. Lin is so straightforward, I won’t say those polite words.”
“I came to you this time in the hope that you will intervene and save my grandson James!”
“He had been in a coma with a high fever for three days, and Dr. Biers in the municipal hospital and Father Hans of the church were helpless…”
Lin Feng guessed his intentions, thinking that he was either coming to borrow money or borrow troops, but he never thought that he would come to ask him to save people, so he decisively refused.
“I have great respect for you, Mr. Haulitt, but I can’t do anything to cure the sick, maybe you should ask the Governor to find a better doctor from the British Empire!”
Mr. Haulitt’s sharp gaze became cold, but softened in an instant.
The mysterious Oriental in front of him, the strength of his subordinates is not weaker than him, and he has a request for others, and he can’t offend him with a momentary anger.
“Three thousand acres of fertile farm, as long as Mr. Lin saves my grandson, I will bring the land deed, and I can even sign the transfer agreement now!”
“Please don’t shirk, your musket captain, if his heart is pierced, he can save it, James is just suffering from the epidemic, it should be difficult for you!”
Mr. Howlett, who is over sixty, did not work women when he was young, but now he has only one son, John, and his son has only one heir, that is, James, who is still in a coma with a high fever.
Remembering his eldest grandson Tony, who died a few years ago, old Horlett trembled in his heart, deeply afraid that James would repeat Tony’s tragedy.
Looking at the sad Haulit, Lin Feng could feel the deep licking like the sea, which reminded him of his grandfather who brought him up before crossing.
Unfortunately, when he returned to his hometown after graduating from college, he only saw the empty old house, and learned from the neighbors that his grandfather had run out of oil a month before he graduated.
Before he died, the old man refused to let his neighbors call, for fear of delaying his grandson’s studies, but he was dazed and missed the opportunity to see his grandfather for the last time.
“Alas!”
Lin Feng sighed, if he had crossed before, he would have the ability now, and he would definitely be able to save his grandfather.
“Okay, I agree to help you, but I have a few conditions, no one else must be present during the first treatment!”
Old Haulitt nodded repeatedly, he only asked for his grandson, and he also understood that some things were not suitable for being exposed to other people’s eyes.
“Don’t rush to agree first, listen to my conditions before deciding!”
Shaking his head helplessly, Lin Feng continued to say other conditions.
“The second condition is that 3,000 acres of land is too little, I want 10,000 acres.”
“The third condition is that James will recognize me as a righteous father, and come to the manor every day to be taught by me.”
Compared to the first condition, the latter two conditions are much harsher.
Although 10,000 acres of land made old Haulit feel distressed, after all, this accounted for one-fifth of the Haulitt family’s land, but he was very hesitant about that last condition.
Righteous Father?
Is it similar to the godfather of the Yiduli Black Glove Party, what does this Oriental want to do?
As for handing over his grandson to Lin Feng to teach, he didn’t care much.
Lin Feng looked at the pensive old Haulitt for a moment.
Compared to 10,000 acres of land, he valued the latter two conditions more, which was related to the confidentiality of his ability and had to be cautious.
Life and death are only one of their own abilities, but for worldly people, it is enough to make anyone crazy.
If he can’t have a strong enough relationship to ensure that the secret is not leaked, he would rather offend this old Mr. Howlett, and fight a big deal, anyway, with new guns in hand, he is not afraid that he will not be able to beat the other party.
With the information he had recently collected and the extraordinary abilities that kept emerging from his body, Lin Feng had some guesses in his heart.
This world may not be like what he thought before, just a simple parallel universe.
He is definitely not the only one who has extraordinary abilities like him.
