moving city, ark

……

After driving for a few minutes in the manor, the car finally stopped in front of a historic Victorian building.

After they got out of the car, an old film butler was already waiting by the car, and saluted them with a slight smile: "Ma'am, Miss Beatrix, and this one, it should be Mr. Luo Yi, the master is already here There are a few people waiting in the hall, and the banquet is ready."

"Grandpa Keynes, long time no see."

The eldest lady greeted the old housekeeper familiarly.

"Yes, it's been more than half a year since the last Chinese New Year. To be able to meet the eldest lady before this year's Chinese New Year is probably due to Mr. Luo Yi's credit."

The old housekeeper replied with a smile.

"Grandpa Keynes, you say the same about me!"

The eldest lady suddenly became depressed.

But having said that, the eldest lady who returned home seemed to have become more cheerful.Moreover, this old butler's status in Shi Huaiya's family should be unusual.

And the eldest lady who turned her head also introduced to him:

"Grandpa Cairns has been the housekeeper here since my grandfather was in charge of the house. He not only watched me grow up, but also watched my dad grow up! When Grandpa Cairns speaks, my dad has to listen!"

really.

However, Ottilia on the side immediately exposed her with a smile: "So when you were young, you used to hide from Mr. Keynes every time you got into trouble?"

"Hey! Mom, why did you take Luo Yi's side after chatting with him for so long? You always expose my shortcoming!"

On the other side, Cairns also looked at Luo Yi with a little surprise.

Otilia went to the port area to pick up Shi Huaiya in advance, of course he knew about it, and judging from Otilia's current reaction, is she very satisfied?

"Miss said too much," Cairns said to Luo Yi with a modest smile, "I'm just a housekeeper, how can I order the master. Mr. Luo Yi can call me whatever he wants."

Uh... This casual name is obviously impossible.

"Master Keynes."

Luo Yi greeted politely.

Keynes smiled and looked at everyone: "Let's not waste time here. Everyone and the master are waiting in the lobby. The journey is exhausting. Missy and Mr. Luo Yi should also go eat something together."

The old butler led them into the vast building, while explaining: "Master invited a lot of people to this banquet, and many of them are acquaintances. Maybe the eldest lady can recognize many of them."

"I don't have any acquaintances who need to be invited on this occasion, and I haven't made such a request."

The eldest lady muttered, while Luo Yi walked together on the soft carpet calmly.

From seeing Otilia to arriving at this manor, all the way led by Mr. Cairns, the contempt of the nobles, the troubles of the father-in-law's family - nothing at all!

But if he guessed correctly, the next thing should be the real first scene he needs to face.

第 175

Chapter 83 Master Yuezhang's Unhappy

……many people.

As the butler said, among the long tables filled with exquisite food and various drinks in the huge hall, well-dressed aristocrats can be seen everywhere.

After the group of them walked in through the gate, everyone's eyes came together.

You call this a welcome banquet?

He is not the president of a country who is visiting, does he need such a big battle?

Luo Yi secretly slandered in his heart.

But for the few people who just came in through the gate, no one showed any discomfort in the face of such a scene.

In the center of the hall, next to the aisles with carpets of different colors, a middle-aged male named Ferlin was talking to several nobles. After seeing them, he turned his head and said something to the people around him, and then walked towards this side.

Without too much guesswork, it can be easily seen that this should be the father of the young lady, the current Patriarch of the Shi Huaiya family.

The man carried an aura of calmness and prestige. It seemed that he had been in a high position for a long time. He was somewhat similar to the old man he had seen, and also in appearance.

As for Missy...

what……

If you want to talk about the texture of the tail, you can see some similarities, but he really doesn't know how to compare the appearance of a human with a tiger's face...

Animal ears and tails are fine, but there are some groups in Terra's race that have the same appearance as animals, which is simply challenging his biological common sense.

What can't be explained by science, can it be explained by magic?

But fundamentally speaking, both of them are actually the interpretation and use of the rules and essence of the world... Forget it, it's far away.

"Otilia, Beatrix," the man's eyes swept over everyone and finally landed on him, "and Mr. Luo Yi. Welcome to Leeds, I'm Bradley Swire. "

While talking, the man stretched out his hand to him, and the amber tiger eyes staring at him seemed to be shining with a compelling light.

"Hello, uncle."

Luo Yi smiled and stretched out his hand to shake the other party.

To be honest, shaking hands with a tiger feels very strange, but fortunately, the palm shaking his hand is not a tiger's paw.

"Humph."

Bradley snorted lightly and didn't say anything about his title, but he looked at him with a look of displeasure.

This is not surprising.If it were him who suddenly found out that his precious daughter whom he had raised for more than ten or twenty years had been abducted by someone, he would break her leg first before thinking about other things.

Bradley turned his head to look at Otilia and the eldest lady: "Turn around first, and I will introduce Mr. Luo Yi to everyone."

When talking about the title 'Mr. Luo Yi', Bradley's tone was very serious.

However, as soon as the words were finished, the eldest lady unceremoniously slapped her back.

"Old man, what are you going to do to Luo Yi?!"

"Didn't I say it! I just introduced it to everyone, is there any problem with this matter?!"

Bradley immediately showed a bearded and staring expression.The father and daughter stared at each other with big eyes and small eyes.

Uh……

"the two of them……?"

Luo Yi secretly asked Otilia with a delicate expression.

"Hoohoo," Otilia covered her lips with her hands, with a smirk on her face, "they are like this, you should know Beatrix's character, and he has always been very assertive. When he was going to Longmen near After she brought it up in the Bureau of Health, no one could convince her, just like her father."

"So these two people fought with each other, and they got used to it after seeing each other more. Don't worry about it."

"Yes, is it..."

Luo Yi's mouth twitched slightly.

However, this place is in front of the banquet hall, and everyone is paying attention to this place.

His father-in-law might not be able to step down from the stage, and the eldest lady probably didn't know this, but because she was worried about him, she and his father-in-law got into a fight.

To solve this problem, the best candidate is undoubtedly him.After all, although it seems that the father and daughter are fighting each other, he is actually the person at the core of the incident. The question is whether he dares to face the unknown and possible challenges.

But this kind of question does not need to be considered at all.

"Beatrix, you and Miss Leah can sit down anywhere first."

Luo Yi took the eldest lady's hand, and said in a relaxed tone, "Uncle is indeed right. I am new here, so I have to get acquainted with everyone. After all, according to Sister Liya, this is a welcome banquet for me. Well, it’s impossible for me to hide behind others, right?”

That's why I'm worried!

But despite saying this, the young miss still withdrew her father's uncompromising gaze and looked at him.

"Since you said so."

Shi Huaiya suddenly bared her canine teeth, "I said, don't call my mother by that name!"

"Well, what does it matter~"

Otilia interrupted with a smile.

"Of course it matters!"

……

In short, at this point, the matter was basically settled, but the fact that he persuaded his daughter to leave because a man outside spoke up seemed to make Bradley even more upset.

"Everyone, this is our protagonist today, the chairman of Ark Logistics, Mr. Luo Yi, who is also Beatrix's boyfriend."

At the front where everyone's eyes gathered, Bradley briefly introduced the smiling Luo Yi to everyone and everyone, and after a round of applause and flashing lights, he entered a more specific link.

Mr. Bradley Swariya, who showed no expression, personally led him to meet and make friends with nobles one after another.

"This is Clemens Sylvester, the owner of the Sylvester family. Recently, he is setting foot on the Internet. On your zero community, the 7th most popular application is developed by his company. .”

This Shihuaiya family's manor is not open to the outside world, and the banquets between the upper-class nobles rarely allow reporters to appear, right?

However, now he actually saw a reporter-like person, and there was a flash of light just now.

While thinking in his heart, he smiled and talked with the male noble who was probably some kind of short-haired cat in front of him.

"Who is this?"

Luo Yi looked curiously at a young film youth standing beside Clemens.

However, this is just a polite question. There are many similarities in appearance between the two, and the relationship can be guessed.

"This is Clemens' eldest son, Arnold."

Before Clemens could speak, it was the expressionless Mr. Swire who first introduced and then snorted coldly.

"When Beatrix was in Leeds, many young people in this hall now know each other, and there are countless people who want to court my daughter."

But that being said, Mr. Yuezhang, why do you sound like you are gnashing your teeth?

Hey, why are you looking at me when you introduce others?

第 176

Chapter 84 He and them are not in the same world at all

...However, there are so many people.

After bidding farewell to Clemens, being led by the father-in-law, the people who appeared in front of him were one after another.

The Internet, electronic products, drones, medical care, raw materials, ores, energy, even clothing, food, etc., while Luo Yi was thinking thoughtfully, among the many nobles, the so-called nobles he saw There are also many young talents here.

"Haha, compared to Mr. Luo Yi, this unprofessional kid from my family has no face at all."

The noble standing in front of Luo Yi smiled heartily.

In fact, although those present were all nobles with status and high net worth, after several months of development, the current Fang Zhou is no longer the first-timer who was favored by countless people and watched on the sidelines.

The sales volume of Zero is rising steadily, and the network department is also growing rapidly. These two items alone, now bring no less than 50 billion Longmen coins to Ark every month.

In addition to other departments, such as the drone department that just received an official order of 100 billion Longmen coins from Kazdel not long ago, and has since launched different projects in Longmen and other regions.

In less than half a year, the valuation of the Ark in the financial world has exceeded 400 billion Longmen coins. Not to mention the younger generation present, even many noble family owners can only look up to this figure.

It's not that there are people with higher net worth than this, but they are only the top few, and how many people are there in this huge hall?

At a glance, there are at least six or seventy people.Based on the calculation of two family members per person, there are more than 70 noble families.

In fact, he was dragged by his father-in-law to know more than this number of people for a long time.

Rich and potential, and also the boyfriend of Miss Shi Huaiya's family, all these nobles are very enthusiastic.

but,

After Luo Yi and Bradley left.

"Father, Luo Yi can only be regarded as the spokesperson of Ark, right? With the technology in Ark's hands, anyone can easily do this step. Is it necessary to make friends with him so deliberately?"

The young man standing beside the nobleman asked with some doubts.

They are all young people, so being belittled in such a face-to-face will always make people feel a little uncomfortable.
