Chapter 63 The Banquet at the City Lord's Mansion

A carriage drove out of Viscount Leslie's estate and soon set foot on the smooth road leading to the city of Bonta.

Inside the carriage, Viscount Leslie was reading a copy of the "Bonta Daily" in his hand.

After watching for a while, Viscount Leslie nodded in appreciation: "This thing is really good, I'm sure it will become popular. Xu Yi, it will be much more convenient for you to advertise on it in the future."

Xu Yi, who was sitting opposite Viscount Leslie, stopped flipping through the information in his hand, raised his head and smiled: "Lord Viscount, although you are right, I did this thing mainly to facilitate future advertising, but You must never say that in front of Baron Hynas, he will definitely be angry."

Viscount Leslie laughed: "Yes, that guy is so invested in this thing now, I think if you run to him and say you want to advertise on it, he might not even have the face of your founder. Sell ​​it?"

Xu Yi shrugged: "That doesn't matter. Anyway, I created this newspaper just to find something for him to do, so that he wouldn't be around me and the factory all day, and Heinze would complain to me every day."

Viscount Leslie laughed louder: "Xu Yi, if Heinze heard your truth, he would definitely be mad at you. Is he so annoying?"

"No, no, Lord Viscount, you can't talk nonsense about this. How could Baron Haines be annoying? It's just... um, he cares too much about me and the New Flying Merchant Association, which will affect our work a little bit. . Now I have developed a magic press specially for him, and provided him with enough funds and venue to start this "Bonta Daily", but Baron Hynas is very grateful to me, if you hear this If there is a misunderstanding of me, then I will lose a lot."

Viscount Leslie shook his head: "Hainas is still too young to be caught so easily by you. Originally, according to the schedule, he should go back to Anvilmar now, and now you have made such a "Bonta Daily" "He had so much fun, he even forgot about going back. When I met him the day before yesterday, he even told me that he wanted to stay here forever and make "Banta Daily" better and better , I really don't know what he was thinking."

Xu Yi smiled slightly, thinking that this is actually very simple. The "Bonta Daily" is an extremely novel thing on the Sainz Continent. It not only satisfies the gossip psychology of Baron Haines, but also satisfies him as a man. The enthusiasm of young people in their early twenties feels that they can control many things by relying on this newspaper, and they are naturally enthusiastic about it.

Of course, the reason why Xu Yi pushed him to the position of editor-in-chief of "Bangta Daily" was not just to find something for him to do and not let him bother him.

Regarding the "Banta Daily", Xu Yi thought about it very clearly. Although this is a new thing for Sainz Continent, he believes that many people will soon see the great energy brought by this new thing.

With Xu Yi's current status, he is not suitable for mastering this matter. Therefore, when he founded the "Bonta Daily", although he provided creativity, funds and venues, he placed the ownership of the newspaper on the Under the name of Viscount Leslie, and talked with Baron Hynas, he fooled him to be the editor-in-chief.

Now on the surface, "Bangta Daily" has nothing to do with Xu Yi and the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, but in fact, this newspaper will definitely be influenced by Xu Yi, and will inevitably favor the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce to a certain extent.

"Actually, you can tell Baron Haines that even if he returns to Ann Weimar, he can still be the editor-in-chief of the newspaper. The big deal is to start a "Ann Weimar Daily" by himself." Xu Yi smiled.

Viscount Leslie glanced at Xu Yi meaningfully, and shook his head gently: "Do you think Anweimar is the same as here? It's not so easy to do something in Anweimar, especially for someone as sensitive as a newspaper. Things. Believe it or not, if it was in Anvilmar, even if this newspaper could actually appear, it would definitely turn into something completely different from what you imagined?"

"Of course I believe this." Xu Yi nodded with an understanding expression.

Viscount Leslie looked north out of the car window, lost his mind for a long time, suddenly sighed softly, turned his head again, regained his indifferent expression, and asked Xu Yi, "Forget it, don't talk about it. Think about it for a while. What do you want to say when you see the count?"

Xu Yi nodded at the information in his hand, and then pointed to his head: "Everything is ready."

"That's good." Viscount Leslie nodded. "This is the first time you have been received by the Count. You must try to leave a good impression on him. If you can get his support, it will be a great help to you and the Chamber of Commerce."

"Of course I understand that."

The carriage drove all the way into Bangta City, then turned towards the north of the city without stopping, and finally stopped in front of the City Lord's Mansion in the middle of the north of the city.

Xu Yi and Viscount Leslie jumped out of the carriage, and a middle-aged man in a butler's costume greeted them.

"Viscount Leslie, the city lord has been waiting for a long time." The middle-aged man who should be the butler of the city lord's mansion greeted Viscount Leslie with a smile, and then glanced at Xu Yi. "This must be President Xu, right? Please come with me."

The butler's attitude towards Viscount Leslie and Xu Yi was obviously different. When greeting Viscount Leslie, he was extremely enthusiastic and even a little respectful, but he was much colder when facing Xu Yi. , and greeting a passerby is no different.

Xu Yi naturally wouldn't feel any sense of loss because of this. With his current status, it was because of Viscount Leslie's face that he could be received by the Lord of the City.

On the other hand, Viscount Leslie valued Xu Yi much more, and made a special trip to introduce to Xu Yi: "Xu Yi, this is Et, the Earl's housekeeper. You may see him many times in the future, but you have to remember it."

Xu Yi smiled and nodded to Butler Et.

Butler Et gave Viscount Leslie a slightly surprised look, and when he looked at Xu Yi again, he showed a smile, appearing to be a little more cordial than before.

After a brief greeting, Xu Yi consciously fell behind Viscount Leslie by half, and followed Butler Et to the city lord's mansion.

The City Lord's Mansion was not as big as Xu Yi expected, but after walking for a while, he came to a hall that looked like a living room.

However, Butler Et did not introduce the two of them, but turned around and led the way.

"The Lord of the City has prepared dinner in the restaurant, the two of you please come with me."

Hearing Butler Et's explanation, Xu Yi couldn't help but glance at Viscount Leslie.

Although I have long known that Viscount Leslie has a good relationship with the City Lord, Earl Sean Summer, but now from the attitude of Steward Et towards him and the way the Lord City Lord directly invited them to the restaurant, I am afraid that their relationship The relationship between them is far more intimate than Xu Yi had expected.

It seemed that the power of the family behind Viscount Leslie was not weak, otherwise, it would be impossible for him to have such a good personal relationship with the dignified Lord of a City, a noble earl, just by virtue of his small Viscount.

Soon, the two came to the restaurant under the guidance of Butler Et, and saw Earl Sean Summer who had already taken a seat in the restaurant.

As soon as he saw the two of them, Count Summer immediately let out a hearty laugh, waved his hands and let them sit.

As soon as he sat down, Xu Yi suddenly felt a strange cool wind blowing from behind, turned his head in surprise, and saw a magic air conditioner hanging on the wall of the restaurant, which was emitting a faint cyan color at this time. The light is blowing a cool breeze here.

Noticing Xu Yi's actions, Earl Summer laughed again: "President Xu, do you remember that the first time we met was at the banquet held by Leslie that night? If I guessed correctly, this kid was at that time. Holding a banquet is basically colluding with you. I want to help you promote this magic air conditioner, right? Otherwise, with this kid's temper, how could he find such a large group of people to bother him. "

Xu Yi and Viscount Leslie exchanged a surprised look, and said with a smile, "Sir City Lord is indeed wise. That's right, I asked Lord Viscount to help me with that banquet, and the purpose was indeed to promote the magic air conditioner. Of course, the effect was good isn't it?"

"Of course, you didn't see that even I couldn't stand it, so I bought several units in one go." Earl Summer pointed to Viscount Leslie. "I thought at the time that even this arrogant kid is willing to help you, then Xu Yi, you must be a very capable guy. I didn't think I expected less at the time, and it's only been more than two months. Your New Flying Chamber of Commerce has come up with so many novel things, which opened my eyes."

"Sir City Lord, you have won the prize. It's just some little things I figured out in my spare time. It's really nothing." Xu Yi quickly said modestly.

"A small thing?" Earl Summer glanced at Xu Yi, smiled slightly, but didn't say any more, turned his head and nodded to Butler Et, who was standing beside him.

Butler Et clapped his hands, and a group of maids filed out with plates of various colors.

The maid walking in the last place was different from the maid in front. On the plate she was carrying, there was actually a magic rice cooker!

Seeing Xu Yi and Viscount Leslie's stunned expressions, Earl Summer laughed again.

"What? Don't you like rice?"

Viscount Leslie shrugged his shoulders with a dashing gesture: "Lord Earl, you know that I have always been not very picky about what I eat."

Xu Yi frowned slightly.

The city owner has been showing himself his knowledge of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce from the very beginning, so is this a gesture of goodwill? Or a warning?
