Chapter 455 Invitation from the Valente Family
July 7, 1399, fog.
Finally leaving the world of memories where murderous intent always lurks, and returning to a safe and comfortable home, Lynch fell asleep when he got home last night, and slept until seven o'clock this morning before waking up naturally.
Alas, since time travel, I no longer work as a social animal. I can only sleep until I wake up naturally every day, and I don’t even have the chance to use the alarm clock. It’s a pity when I think about it.
Sighing melancholy, Lynch put on light clothes and trotted out the door.
Most of the warriors in their hometown who are determined to keep fit can only persist for three days because the pressure is not enough. If they are also in a state where they must strengthen their physical fitness or they may die at any time, they are guaranteed to practice harder than anyone else.
That was what happened to Lynch, so he resumed his morning workout the day after his return, jogging all the way to the Police Club.
First practice cane fighting, and then practice marksmanship. I wonder if it is because of the improvement in body control brought about by the upgrade. In the past month or so, his marksmanship has improved rapidly. From the very beginning, he chased the coach with gunfire. By now most bullets can hit the target.
Seeing the coach hiding behind the bunker burst into tears, he kept thanking any god for making his students feel like a different person.
Lynch was also very happy, so the last shot finally missed the target. After the bullet bounced off the gas pipe several times, it grazed the coach's head and entered the table that was used as a bunker.
Very good, this is a complete training.
Lynch patted the almost petrified coach with satisfaction, left the Police Club with a cane and walked all the way to the door of Crown Plaza City Hall with a smile.
I will go to the Secret Law Tower to meet with President Gurman soon. The meeting place I have agreed with the two ladies is here.
That very familiar place, the outdoor cafe in front of the city hall, was the place where I met Miss Diana.
No matter how the undercurrent surges in the darkness, the world under the sun is always calm. People come and go in the Crown Plaza, and the expensive cafes are filled with well-dressed gentlemen and ladies, talking softly, Yan Yan smiled.
I took out my pocket watch and looked at it. It was half past seven. Well, it seemed like this broken watch was broken again.
This is still something left by the original owner of the body. It seems that it is time to retire.
Looking back at the Honesty Clock in the Hall of Order, it was half past nine, half an hour before the appointed time. Lynch looked around and saw that the two ladies had not arrived yet.
Find a seat and wait. There are not many empty seats. He walked towards an open seat, but when he was halfway there, he suddenly stopped.
Inspiration sends back a special message.
【Karena's exquisite makeup】
Um?
Lin Qi looked around and saw that there were many people in the area, including men and women, old and young. Everyone was doing their own thing, and no one paid attention to Lin Qi, who was in casual clothes.
Tsk, this girl is doing it again.
His eyes quickly scanned the faces of the people around him for just a few seconds, and then he walked towards a young lady.
A girl of seventeen or eighteen years old, dressed like a company clerk, has no sense of disobedience in this environment.
But Lynch walked straight over, bowed gracefully in front of the girl, smiled and said: "Madam, I wonder if I am lucky enough to sit across from you?"
"No." The girl's eyes turned into crescent moons and she whispered softly, "Not opposite, next to, or behind."
"Oh, then I can only pick you up and sit in your seat. "
"Your Excellency Lynch!" The Countess blushed and glared at him, turning her head away from him, but the smile on her face betrayed her. When she saw Lynch sitting down consciously, she wore a Anna couldn't help but asked curiously, "How did you discover me this time? Did I expose myself in any way?" With a curious look on her face, she seemed to be looking forward to hearing Lynch's wonderful analysis like last time. reasoning, but Lynch just smiled.
"Nowhere is exposed, but I have known you for so long. If I can't recognize you at a glance, it would be too unqualified. Your eyes are so familiar that I don't think I can recognize you."
The Countess was stunned for a moment, her eyes were full of tenderness, she wrinkled her nose and hummed softly: "It's considered qualified. I reluctantly agree to sit across from you, but you have to invite me to drink coffee."
"Hey, you skipped the bill last time. Are you rich people so stingy?"
"Of course, otherwise where do you think our money comes from? It's all frugality. Come out.”
“Let’s have a frugal meal of veal tenderloin and quench our thirst with moonshine wine, right?”
"Yes."
The free coffee is delicious. As the Countess watched with a smile, Lynch took another cup to relieve the water consumed by the exercise just now.
Miss Diana kept tilting her chin and looking at him until he put down the cup, then asked seriously: "Father's reply has arrived in the past few days."
"Huh?"
"About the Best Mountain Tunnel incident." Diana lowered her voice and explained, "I conveyed your thoughts to him."
Before Relying on information gaps, Lynch negotiated and coordinated with Speaker Grant, the Archaeological Association, the Duke's Palace, and the Valente family, part owners of Best Mountain. Finally, after cheating Grant, he successfully promoted the tunnel project and Zurg. Excavations at Lasalle.
As for the Valente family, the tunnel will occupy their fiefdom, which is not free. According to the usual practice, in addition to choosing an equivalent fiefdom, they also need to give 10% of the fiefdom as compensation.
For the great nobles in this world, land is their most important thing, and most of their income comes from land. But Lynch had the experience of his previous life, and he knew very well that the steam age was an era full of changes. The old pattern of the world was being broken, and a new pattern was slowly being established. And only he knew clearly what an important railway in the steam age meant.
The huge wealth is just the most inconspicuous one.
Therefore, Lynch mentioned to Miss Diana at that time that replacing more land was actually a bit of a loss, as there were more favorable conditions. At that time, I just said that, this kind of old aristocracy has its own principles and considerations. Unexpectedly, Miss Diana actually conveyed her opinions.
"Father hopes to have the opportunity to meet with you to discuss this matter in detail. He is very interested in what you said. If you want to go to the capital Nolin, I will go back with you and take you to My father met to discuss this matter in detail.”
Girl, are you sure you just want to discuss this matter in detail?
Lynch looked at the countess with a strange look, but Diana just turned her head to one side, her cheeks slightly red: "Anyway, before Prince William's canonization ceremony on July 28, you must be encouraged by Sophia to go there. From the capital, I will go with you then."
"Okay, I understand, I will go."
Lin Qi sighed inwardly at the actions of these two girls. Unexpectedly, since they had planned to go to the cemetery, they must also make a trip to Nolin in the royal capital.
"Where are you going?"
Natalie's voice came from not far away. When Lynch turned his head, he saw that the girl had specially changed into a long skirt. Her tall figure was reflected in the long skirt. There is a different kind of beauty down there, but this is the problem...
"Let's go to the Secret Tower. Let's go. Everyone is here. Let's set off."
As I spoke, I murmured in my mind, am I too scumbag?
No, absolutely not.
