In the melodious music of a 20-member orchestra, the reception hosted by the Earl of Aldridge officially opened.

Although the memory in his mind has sufficiently shown Donald what he needs to do in such a social situation, the memory is someone else's after all, and Donald himself is not someone who likes to pretend to be acquainted with a group of strangers. He himself didn't know what the topic was.

Serveit Talos seems to enjoy the activity, though.

It's not that he is so talkative. In fact, this guy's personality can be said to be very bad. He talks to people to enjoy the pleasure of being complimented by nobles or big capitalists, probably to make up for the fact that he was once in the family by those people. The sense of loss after being bullied by someone whose status is not much different from him.

It is a little helpless that Serveit Talos does have this capital. As the ruler of Reinas City in East Germany, even if the Talos family is aside, there are still quite a few people in the county trying to curry favor with him.

And this means that even if Donald stands still, his presence still glows like a firefly in the dark.

Unfortunately, it does not attract pure and simple children, but a group of bugs chasing fame and fortune.

For example, the Viscount Joyce in front of him.

It must be stated here that the title of nobility only reflects a person's official status recognized by the Lane Empire, not his real social status.

Likewise, a title cannot represent a person's power or something else.

The best example is Donald and the Adrien who died in an "accident". Both of them are viscounts, but the former is the ruler of Renas, whether it is real money or various factories and shops in his name. Real estate is at least two grades stronger than the latter.

Don't get me wrong, this is not to belittle Adrian. He doesn't have a count family to support him, and even in this case, he can still compete for mayor with Serveit Talos, who will exploit Renas as his life goal. The position is enough to face that his family is already in the upper middle and upper reaches among the same viscounts.

And the difference between Viscount Joyce and him is about the same as the difference between him and Donald.

To put it bluntly, this viscount just inherited a name to a large extent, and the assets under his name are pitiful.

According to the contents of Servette's memory, he was the one who pushed Servette to cooperate with him to win the mining company. This guy especially likes to be a broker because he has too little capital. They specially provide insider information to some nobles with relatively closed information, or simply help them to rob them, in order to obtain their own interests while the other party makes money.

Not to mention, he really got his way in the aristocratic circle by relying on this kind of thing. After all, most nobles focus on enjoyment, and few people think about bullying weaker families or capitalists all day long. to profit for oneself.

Many times even if they think of it, they won't do it, because it's a big blow to their reputation.

However, Joyce and Servett can be said to have similar smells, and they can be described as embarrassing.

"Dear Mr. Serveit, please allow me to tell you the great news, that mining company has been unable to support any longer recently, and their accumulated debt has completely interrupted their capital chain, and we have jointly given The pressure has also caused problems in other properties of the Steve family, and according to reliable sources, the lady is ready to sell the mining company at an auction later this evening."

Joyce's expression was always slightly exaggerated when he spoke in the past, but today, after seeing the rare Servette standing by without a mask and gloomy drinking, he spoke cautiously.

Some time ago, the assassination incident that occurred in Renas had long been spread among the noble circles in East Germany, and he naturally knew that it was said that the assassination killed all the guards beside Serveit Talos, making him completely slaughtered. It suffered huge losses.

Joyce also heard about Adrian recently, so he subconsciously thought that the other party was in a bad mood because of too many troubles. Even with such a beautiful and thrilling lady standing beside him, it was still difficult for him to stretch his brows.

In fact, this is Donald's gesture in order to avoid too much communication with people. After all, there is no rule that guests must be smiling at this reception.

"Well, I'm going to participate in the auction."

This mining company is an inevitable industry for Donald, and his Howling Forest development plan is indispensable to this company, so he doesn't bother to talk nonsense with Joyce and directly express his intentions.

And his statement made Joyce stunned in place.

"What do you want the mining company to do? This is not in line with our original agreement."

In this cooperation, Joyce is the middleman, responsible for the nobles or big capitalists who are interested in the mining company. In the original contract, Serveit asked for 30% of the shares of the mining company, and the price he paid was in his own name. To oppress those chambers of commerce that cooperate with the Steve family and let them put pressure on the Steve family.

This kind of contribution can be said to be big or small, and it is a happy ending to account for 30% of the shares.

One of the other two parties to the cooperation is a well-known mining tycoon in East Germany. He wants a mining company to enhance his own strength, and the other is a Viscount from Marta City. What he wants is a bit strange.

He doesn't want shares or money, but wants the female relatives of the Steve family.

After the death of that Baron Steve, what was left behind was a mother and daughter, said to be two extremely beautiful women, and it was them that he took a fancy to.

The idea is also simple, to destroy the family first, because Baron Steve's title is the lowest, once the strength is not good, it is no different from the commoners.

That's all for the contract.

"I have money, can't I auction it?"

Donald drank the fruit wine slowly, and continued to say to Joyce, who was embarrassed and anxious,

"According to the rules, fair competition, the higher price wins!"

"Aren't you breaking the agreement between us, Viscount Philip and Mr. Theodore have been planning for this day for a long time, and it's not only difficult for me to explain to them, I'm afraid those two will not agree to Viscount Philip to come, why don't you two talk?"

Joyce can't do anything now. As a broker, what he is most afraid of is this situation. These three are people he can't offend, and the mood in front of him is obviously very bad now. good idea.

When he happened to see Viscount Philip coming this way, Joyce wanted to push the trouble out and let these big men discuss the results themselves.

Looking over Joyce's gaze, Donald saw at a glance that the middle-aged man with some fat body was walking towards him quickly.

To be precise, he was walking towards Stephanie.

"Oops"

Joyce's face became a little ugly after noticing this. He was very clear about Viscount Philip's virtue. The stallion that he wanted to go to when he saw a beautiful woman was the most appropriate title for him.

Relying on the family business accumulated by the previous generation, this guy has harmed many people.

Looking at his current appearance~lightnovelpub.net~, it is obvious that he wants to continue his usual behavior.

This is indeed the case. Philip participated in this kind of reception for the purpose of hunting for beauty, and this beauty in front of him was undoubtedly one of the most striking people in the whole reception.

Of course, Philip is not an idiot. Most of the time, after he finds the target, he will confirm the male partner of the other party and then decide his own way of action.

But this time, he couldn't remember who the "little white face" beside the beauty was. As a communication master in the aristocratic circle of Dongde County, since he had no impression in his mind, it meant that the other party was not a real high-level person. figure.

So what's there to worry about?

"Beautiful lady, allow me to invite you"

As a gentleman, of course, at this time, you must first have a close communication with the lady for a reasonable reason.

Inviting a dance is undoubtedly a very good start. This is a very normal invitation in the upper class, and it is generally not rejected, not to mention that his identity is the best among the characters present.

Unfortunately, he found the wrong object of estrus.

"Shut your mouth and go back to your pigpen now, or I can't guarantee you'll be able to get out of here today."

Since he was destined to become an enemy, Donald naturally wouldn't give this guy a good look, not to mention that what he was going to show today was a person who has always been arrogant and domineering, but at this moment is in a very bad mood.

hiss~

Joyce next to him took a deep breath after hearing this.

Joyce knew that Viscount Philip would be rejected, but he did not expect to be rejected by such humiliating words.

Even bystanders felt it was too much, not to mention Viscount Philip who was the party involved.

Why has he suffered such grievances?
