Chapter 19 Treating Guests

Not far from the northwest corner of Bangta City, a small road meanders into a lush forest, travels about two kilometers, and injects into an extremely large manor.

The interior of this manor is also full of greenery, with all kinds of flowers and plants in between, and there are more than ten houses in the manor that are not too many.

From time to time, there are various birds flying and chirping, which makes the whole manor quiet and comfortable.

There is a small hill on the west side of the manor. A clear spring water flows down from the top of the mountain, bringing a cool water vapor to the manor, and at the same time a pool of water is accumulated at the foot of the mountain.

The spring water is cool and the water pools are constantly flowing, naturally with a hint of cool air.

A small wooden hut was built by the water pool. Viscount Leslie was at the opening of the wooden hut. He took off his shoes and dipped his feet and whole calf into the water pool, enjoying the coolness brought by the water pool. Let out a comfortable **.

In addition, beside him, there is a magic fan that keeps turning.

A cool breeze blew out from the magic fan, blowing his loose hair and shaking.

After enjoying for a while with his eyes closed, Viscount Leslie suddenly shook his head: "This thing is still not good, it's not as cool as the Frost Array."

The Brunei steward who had been standing by the side immediately bowed to answer: "Yes, Lord Viscount. No one of the nobles in Bangta City bought this magic fan. Everyone thinks it is a commoner's thing. I suggest you don't continue. If you use it well, there will be ** copies."

"Oh? Do all those idiots think so?" Viscount Leslie turned his head to look at the Brunei butler with a mocking smile on the corner of his mouth.

Seeing the lazy smile on Viscount Leslie's face, the Brunei steward sighed inwardly.

Lord Viscount just turned 30 this year, when he was young and strong, with his handsome appearance and decent manners, he was very popular among the noble ladies in the aristocratic circle in Bangta City, but he has no intention of getting married yet. The Count of Anvilmar has been worried about this for a long time.

"Lord Viscount, what do you mean?" Of course, the Brunei steward would not reveal the thoughts in his heart, but made the right support.

"What? Don't you understand?" Viscount Leslie pointed to the magic fan. "Although this thing is not as effective as the Frost Magic Circle, don't forget, the cost of this thing is far less than the Frost Magic Circle. The ordinary families in Bangta City can't set up the Frost Magic Circle, but it doesn't mean they can't buy it. Get this magic fan. What's not acceptable when you can bring yourself a cool breeze with just two gold coins?"

Brunei's butler nodded lightly: "It's true. During this time, magic fans were sold very well in Bangta City, and even people from many villages outside the city came to buy them in the city."

"Brunei, how much do you think it will cost to make one of these?" Viscount Leslie suddenly asked again.

Brunei did not hesitate, and immediately replied: "I have roughly calculated that the cost of a magic fan should not exceed one gold coin."

"Hehe, the cost is only one gold coin, but one sells for two gold coins. That is to say, every time a magic fan is sold, Xu Yi will earn one gold coin. Do you know that he How many have been sold so far?"

"This... I don't know. But it is estimated that there are more than 2,000 units, right?" The Brunei butler replied uncertainly.

"Even if he has 2,000 units, that's 2,000 gold coins. This guy earned 2,000 gold coins in just one month, which is really not small." Viscount Leslie's tone was full of admiration.

Brunei's butler was a little strange. He frowned and said, "Lord Viscount, although I admit that he is very capable, this is only a special case. Magic fans will only be sold in summer, at most a year. It’s only been three months. Besides, every family will not need too much of this thing. When every family who can afford it buys it, he will not be able to earn so many gold coins by relying on it.”

"Brunei, you are still old after all." Viscount Leslie sighed and shook his head. "You don't understand, no one in Bangta City has bought it. He can sell this thing to other cities, or even to other countries. Sainz Continent is so big, families who want to buy this magic fan don't care. Count, as long as he can ship this thing somewhere else, he'll be able to sell it. I can even tell you for sure that this guy has had this in mind since the beginning, otherwise why do you think he He rented a whole hectare of land from me? Just to maintain his current scale, he doesn't need such a large land at all, just find a small workshop in the city to solve it."

The Brunei steward said in amazement, "Does he actually have such big ambitions?"

"Haha, it's good to have ambition. Otherwise, do you think I'll talk to you about a small businessman who is not at all attractive?" Viscount Leslie chuckled. "Actually, what really caught my attention was when a group of people besieged his store last time."

"Oh, I'm also quite surprised about that incident. I thought it would be a big deal, but I didn't expect them to handle it very well. In the end, they all went back very satisfied." Brunei's butler said involuntarily. With a hint of admiration. "I've seen that Heinze, but he's not someone with such strong abilities, so Xu Yi should be the one who handled this matter."

"This alone is nothing. What caught my attention was what he proposed... By the way, the brand! Brunei, do you understand the meaning of this word?"

The Brunei butler shook his head blankly.

"To be honest, I don't understand either. But I can feel that this thing must be very important. Now the other businessmen in Bonta City don't understand the meaning of this thing, but I believe they will understand in the future." Viscount Sly's tone was unusually affirmative, and he seemed to be very convinced of his own conclusion.

Brunei's butler frowned and thought for a while, and couldn't help but ask: "Lord Viscount, what do you want to say after talking so much? No matter what that Xu Yi wants to do, it doesn't seem to have much to do with you, right? Although he asked I gave you 10% of the shares, but according to my estimation, it can only bring in a few hundred gold coins at most a year, so you don’t need to worry so much about it, right?”

Viscount Leslie laughed: "Brunei, you don't believe you when you say you are old. Go, go there tomorrow and send an invitation to Xu Yi for me, saying that I invited him to be a guest here."

The Brunei butler widened his eyes in amazement.

Did he hear it right? The Viscount, who never likes being interrupted by guests, actually invites others to be guests at home?

###

Xu Yi doesn't feel honored at all now. After hundreds of tests on the magic head punching machine and the magic tooth rolling machine at Master Ranu, he put forward a lot of adjustment suggestions to Master Ranu.

While receiving numerous complaints from Master Ranu, he also received the good news that he would adjust within three days.

This process almost exhausted Xu Yi's physical strength and energy. When he dragged his tired body back to his rented hut, he lay on the bed and fell asleep.

Not knowing how long it took, Xu Yi woke up from his sleep and immediately smelled the aroma of stewed meat in his nose.

When I turned my ears, I could hear the voices of conversations coming from the kitchen.

It's still a girl's voice!

Xu Yi was startled. Could it be that someone stole in while he was asleep?

One turned over and got up, Xu Yi came to the kitchen and looked around, but saw two figures, one big and one small, with their backs to him, busy in front of the stove.

No matter how big or small, the two figures are very familiar to him.

"Steel, why are you here?" Xu Yi asked in astonishment.

Steel, who was shaking the spatula, turned his head in surprise and smiled at Xu Yi: "Wake up. Go wash your face and get ready to eat."

Xu Yi glanced at her inexplicably, then looked at the little slave he bought next to Steele, and couldn't help frowning.

"Hey, your injury hasn't healed yet, why did you escape?"

Although the little slave had been here for many days with Xu Yi, he still looked timid. Hearing that, he shrank, lowered his head, left the kitchen, and returned to the room that Xu Yi had prepared for him.

"Xu Yi, why did you murder her? I asked her to help." Seeing Xu Yi yelling away the little helper, Steele couldn't help expressing dissatisfaction.

"Didn't you see that he was still injured, so you asked him to help? It would be troublesome if the wound opened."

"Don't worry, I have checked the wounds on his body, and it's good enough. There's nothing in the way." Steele had already cooked a dish, and gestured to Xu Yiduzui to put another dish and a The stew was brought out.

While placing the utensils, Steele asked Xu Yi softly, "Hey, Xu Yi, what's the matter with this little girl?"

"Little girl? Who?" Xu Yi asked in surprise.

"Of course it's her." Steele pointed to the hut where the slaves grew up.

"Oh, it's a little slave I bought. It's a lot of trouble to talk about. I'll explain it to you later... Wait, you mean little girl?" Xu Yi suddenly widened his eyes.

"Yeah? What's wrong?" Seeing Xu Yi's surprised expression, Steele was also stunned.

"Isn't he a boy?" Xu Yi asked in surprise.

"What boy? It's obviously a little girl, okay! Is there something wrong with your eyes?" Steele scolded unceremoniously.

Xu Yi was immediately stunned.

The first time I saw this little slave, she was being beaten to death by three strong men with leather whips, so Xu Yi subconsciously regarded her as a little boy, because he did not believe that there would be people in this world who would A little girl under the ruthless hand.

Later, after buying her from the housekeeper in Brunei, because of her injuries, she was always wrapped in gauze, and Xu Yi didn't have much time to contact her, so naturally he didn't pay attention to these problems.

Unexpectedly, this little boy he always thought was actually a little girl!
