night.

　　In the center of Yuanfan City, the magnificent Orange Leaf Fort of the Marquis of Emore is brightly lit.

　　 In the magnificent banquet hall, well-dressed gentlemen and ladies, familiar or unfamiliar, have gathered together in groups with their wine glasses.

　　 Although the banquet has not officially started, all the guests have already expressed themselves on this extremely high-level social stage.

　　 "Sir Melville, the cotton on your farm should be close to the picking season. How about the market this year, or are you going to ship it back to China?"

　　 "Ah! It's Mr. Cork, thank you for your concern. This year's market is no need to worry about it. Your wise Marquis has already ordered all my harvest, hahaha..."

"congratulations!"

　　 Summoned by the most distinguished Marquis Yuanfan in this land, the identity of the guests at this banquet is of course not simple. It is mainly composed of senior officials, big businessmen, partners, navy representatives, famous scholars, artists... and their families in the territory.

　　 The quality of the guests at the meeting is extremely high. Maybe they can make important contacts or make a big business in a few words. No one is willing to give up this rare opportunity.

　　 Even Ivan is inevitable in this kind of occasion. Even if he doesn't take the initiative to talk to others, just sitting there quietly is like a bright lamp in the dark.

　　 "Hahaha, Your Excellency General, you are really busy. It's been a long time since I saw you."

　　 Seeing the chubby middle-aged gentleman approaching him, Aiwen, who was sitting in the corner of the banquet hall, smiled and stood up to greet him.

　　 "Director Necardo, it has been a long time since I saw you! I was on official business at this time, and you have been working hard for the trading company."

　　 A straight general uniform is the most high-end dress in social occasions, even if it goes to the highest standard royal banquet, it will not be rude. With the gorgeous commanding knife around his waist, the handsome but majestic young general can't help but disappoint.

　　 The attendant Hawkins behind him also got up to greet him. In the recent preparations for the establishment of the Mercury Union Trading Company, Ivan basically did not come forward, but Hawkins, as an agent, and the representative of the East Roentz Company are already very familiar.

　　 As for the Milan lieutenant colonel who came with Aiwen, I didn't know where I went with his Princess Apsuya.

　　 Niekardo's face is red, and it is clear that life is going well during this time:

　　"You don’t have to worry about the company's affairs. How can you lose sight of me and Major Hawkins?

　　 Your Excellency General is someone who does important things. I have heard your Excellency the Marquis say. If you hadn't made it in time, I still don't know what the chaos of the major colonies of the kingdom has become.

　　All the residents living in the colony of the kingdom, even all the pioneers and natives should thank you! "

　　 Today is half a month after Aiwen and Taylor worked together to find a special medicine.

　　 The turmoil in the Falitis colony caused by the black wizards of the "poisonous school" has been completely controlled by the special medicine they developed.

　　 Including the Wendat tribe, which is the backbone of the Hurons, all patients have also recovered and follow-up measures have been taken to ensure that they will not relapse.

　　 By the way, in the foreign export project of the Kingdom of Falitis, there is also a tough product.

Only the advance payment paid by other forces and countries has made Mercury United Trading Company, which has started trial operations and is responsible for this matter, a big profit. This is of course also clear to Niccardo, the representative of the third largest shareholder. .

at first.

　　 Ivan is not without the unlucky thoughts of other forces, especially Hilius, but the continued ravages of germs have caused the residents around the Golden Sea to become talkative.

　　 As a result, the colony’s foreign trade business losses are increasing every day, and even the “no-profit business” that Ivan holds as a pillar industry cannot be spared. It is better to say that shipping is one of the first industries to be hit in this turmoil.

　　 In turn, the pirates are about to drink northwestern style to survive.

　　 Compared with the number of colonists, the border is too long to stop the attack. As long as a monster controlled by the "cystic fungus" breaks through the border, Falettis will not be able to restore the previous order at all.

　　 So it's better to take advantage of other people's backyard fires to make a fortune!

　　 Besides, unlike the relatively narrow use, what I am developing in cooperation with Taylor is a veritable cash cow.

　　In the long history of medical development of Blue Star in the past life, human beings have invented countless kinds of drugs. They are constantly updated and updated to help mankind defeat the fierce diseases.

　　 But there is a medicine that is effective from beginning to end. It is a panacea that kills germs.

　　 This kind of drug has a broad-spectrum antibacterial effect, with fewer side effects and less resistance to the bacteria, so it has been regarded as a "magic drug" since its birth.

　　 Especially on the tragic battlefield dominated by trauma.

　　 After each battle, countless wounded died due to trauma and infection, resulting in indirect deaths higher than direct deaths.

　　 If there is this kind of "magic medicine" in the hands of military doctors, it will surely be able to profoundly change this situation.

　　 For Aiwen, the history of medicine is of secondary importance. After all, he has already passed it once when solving scurvy. The real money that can be transformed into power is the most tangible.

　　 He has watched too many spy war films, and he is really impressed with Penicillin, which is equivalent to the big yellow croaker and the small yellow croaker.

　　Maybe the pharmaceutical industry will be the most profitable buy in Aiwen's hands in the future* When pirates rob money, the speed will be faster.

　　 happened to be joined by Taylor, an official medical professional. In many cases, he only needs to provide his own ideas. This experienced medical doctor with strong hands-on ability can turn it into reality.

　　 Especially after obtaining part of the knowledge of the "poisonous epidemic school" from the seized magic bag, the production technology being designed, such as, is even ahead of the modern pharmaceutical industry...

　　 But these things are not easy to tell others, Ivan’s compliment to Necardo just smiled slightly:

　　 "The responsibility lies, and I dare not disappoint Her Majesty's trust."

　　 As rare acquaintances, the two chatted for a while, and the banquet officially began.

　　 As the host, the Marquis Yuanfan in a formal dress walked into the middle of the magnificent hall and addressed the guests:

　　 "Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to Orange Leaf Castle..."

　　Actually, the theme of today's banquet is to celebrate the victory over this epidemic and the official establishment of the Mercury United Trading Company.

　　Although he is a major shareholder alongside the Marquis, Irvine, who holds several positions, is not suitable to stand directly on the bright side, so the Marquis Yuanfan is the sole representative.

　　 Even so, after the Marquis gave a speech, the guests turned their eyes to Aiwen.

　　 Although there is no such famous saying in this world that "the warrior has no great merit", the principles are the same. Compared with turning the tide when the situation has deteriorated to the point where it is difficult to manage, the level of stifling a major crisis in the bud is more than two or three levels higher.

　　 As the tentacles of the kingdom’s penetration into the Golden Sea, what kind of tragedy is happening along the coast of this sea area, how could they, as the upper-class figures of the domain, be unclear?

　　 So after the official start of the banquet, Irvine’s side immediately turned into a whirlpool. This was because many guests who felt insufficiently identifiable did not join in.

　　 What surprised Aiwen even more was that most of the people who flocked to him were young women from all walks of life.

　　 "Your Excellency General, can you tell us your story at sea?"

　　 "Your Excellency General, the opening dance later will be Master Ravel's. Are you lucky enough to invite you to dance together?"

　　 "Your Excellency General..."

　　 It is clear at a glance what idea they are fighting, and the general who is murderous in such a scene is at a loss for a while.

　　 Until...the arrival of another girl who condensed all the glory of the banquet.

Da da da..

　　 The girl wearing a luxurious ice blue evening dress and stepping on crystal high heels walked down from the second floor of the banquet hall with her skirt horns. The dazzling brilliance is like a spring fairy coming down to the world, and it is like the cold moonlight in the sky, making people look beyond sight.

　　 Her appearance made the bustling banquet hall seem quiet for a moment.

　　 As the only daughter of the Marquis, Olivia naturally wants to attend in person. However, in countless noble children, the jewel in the palm of the marquis's family went straight to Aiwen's direction.

　　 A group of Yingying and Yanyan surrounding Aiwen has dispersed very consciously, leaving space for the two of them.

　　 Both men and women among the young guests are obviously eclipsed in front of both of them.

　　 Aiwen saw a beautiful girl who was unexpectedly simple in dress and completely opposite to Miss Moonstone in the spirit world. As if a light cloud floated in front of me, I raised my skirt and bowed his knees to make an impeccable lady's gift. Because of my height, I raised my pink lips slightly:

　　 "Meeting for the first time, Your Excellency General, this is Olivia Emore."

　　 "Meeting for the first time, this is Irvine Galliot, and hello, Miss Olivia!"

　　 Even before attending the banquet, I was mentally prepared, but Ivan’s heartbeat speeded up slightly.

　　 "I toast you a glass, thank you for everything you have done for the people of Yuanfanling."

　　 holding a glass of white wine, pinch the feet of the glass with slender hands, straighten the fingers, showing the graceful curves of the hands.

Ding!

　　 The two cups collided and there was a crisp sound.

　　 For the first time in the material world, I felt the faint fragrance of Olivia's body, but Irving's throat was a bit dry, and he drank the wine in his hand.

　　 Out of courtesy, although Olivia had to come, she didn't talk a few words, just stayed in the category of normal social etiquette. She knew very well how sharp Ivan was, and the more she said, the more mistakes she made.

　　 She didn't plan to reveal her identity until she discovered the secret thoroughly.

　　 So ~lightnovelpub.net~ The girl gently floated like a beautiful cloud, did not stop in the world and gently floated back to the sky.

　　 After she left, the voice in the banquet hall seemed to be a bit louder.

　　 Looking at the back of the other person leaving, Ivan thoughtfully.

　　Miss "Moonstone"'s chin is more tapered, indicating that she has a strong personality, is good at action, and has a strong self-esteem. The real Olivia's facial lines are much softer. This is the so-called soft outside and strong inside?

　　 How can such a flaw be left since the face is hidden in the spirit world? If it weren't for other clues, Ivan would never think that they would be the same person.

　　‘As for my appearance in the spiritual world and the material world, is it because I am as good as me, the same on the outside? ’

　　 After Olivia left, Milan pulled Apsuya in a lady's evening gown and came to Aiwen. Looking at his profile a little strangely, he asked:

　　 "Is it hot in the banquet hall? Why is your face so red?"

　　The theory that old drivers are all creatures like paper tigers, a strong mouth with a strong mouth, and when it comes to reality, it will be broken immediately. As soon as Olivia left, she couldn't stretch herself immediately.

　　 Aiwen squinted at him and twitched the corner of his mouth:

　　 "Energetic! And, can you wipe the lip marks on your chin first?"

"what?"

　　 Before the two began to quarrel, Irvine saw the gentle and beautiful marquise Nymph quietly approaching, and quickly stopped.

　　 "Your Excellency General attended the social banquet of Orange Leaf Fort for the first time. Everyone is paying attention to you. Don't see outside here, just treat it as your own home."

　　 "Thank you Madam for your concern! Very good, everyone is very enthusiastic."

　　" By the way, among so many lovely ladies, there is you
