Extraordinary Sailing

night.

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

In the magnificent banquet hall, the well-dressed gentlemen and ladies from familiar or unfamiliar places have gathered 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 marketing is no need to worry about it. Your wise Marquis has already booked all my harvest, hahaha..."

"congratulations!"

Convened 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, and perhaps they can make important contacts or make a big business in a few words. No one is willing to give up this rare opportunity.

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

"Hahaha, your Excellency General, you are really busy. It's been a long time."

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's been a long time! I'm on official business at this time, and you have been working hard for the trading company."

A neat general's uniform is the most high-end dress in social occasions, even if it is the highest standard of 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.

Nekaduo's face was red, apparently having a good time during this period:

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

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

All the inhabitants of the kingdom’s colonies, even all the pioneers and natives, should thank you! "

Today is half a month after Aiwen and Taylor collaborated to find the special drug [Rurubin].

In the Falitis colony, the turmoil 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 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.

It was not that Ivan did not sit back and watch the unlucky thoughts of other forces, especially Hilius, but the continued raging of the germs has 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. Rather, shipping is one of the first industries to be hit in this turmoil.

In addition, the pirates are about to drink northwestern style.

Moreover, compared with the number of colonial residents, the border is too long to stop the attack of [Cyst Servant]. 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!

Moreover, unlike the relatively narrow-purpose [ruin], the [penicillin] 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, mankind has invented countless kinds of drugs, which are constantly updated and updated to help mankind defeat the fierce disease.

However, there is a drug that is effective from start to finish. It is a panacea for killing germs [penicillin].

This drug has a broad-spectrum antibacterial function, with fewer side effects and less resistance to 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 casualties died due to trauma and infection, resulting in indirect deaths higher than direct deaths.

If this "magic medicine" exists in the hands of military doctors, it will definitely change this situation profoundly.

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

He who has watched too many spy films, 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 business in Aiwen's hands in the future, and it may be faster than when pirates robbed money.

It just so happens that Taylor, a formal wizard who specializes in medicine, has joined him. 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 under design, such as [super engineering bacteria], is even ahead of the modern pharmaceutical industry...

But these things are not easy to tell others. Ivan's compliment to Necado just smiled:

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

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

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

"Gentlemen and ladies, welcome to Orange Leaf Castle..."

In fact, 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 as a major shareholder alongside the Marquis, Irving, 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 attention to Aiwen.

Although there is no such famous saying in this world that "those who are good fighters have no great merit", the principles are all 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.

Yuanfanling is the tentacles of the kingdom's penetration into the Golden Sea. At this time, what kind of tragedy is happening along the coast of this sea area, how can they, as the upper class figures of the territory, be unclear?

So after the official start of the banquet, Aiwen's side immediately turned into a whirlpool. This is because many guests who felt that their status was not enough did not come together.

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

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

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

"Your Excellency..."

It's 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 in a luxurious ice blue evening dress stepped on crystal high heels, holding the skirt corners, stepped down from the second floor of the banquet hall. 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 had 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 had already dispersed very consciously, leaving space for the two of them.

Among the young guests, both men and women are obviously going to be overshadowed in front of them.

Aiwen saw the unexpectedly simple dress, the beautiful girl who was the opposite of Miss Moonstone in the spirit world, like a light cloud floating in front of her, she put her skirt on her knees and made an impeccable lady's gift, because The relationship between height is slightly lifted and pink lips are lightly opened:

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

"Meeting for the first time, I'm Irving Garriott, and hello, Miss Olivia!"

Even though he was mentally prepared before attending the banquet, Aiwen's heartbeat was still slightly faster.

Even if Olivia simply wears earrings, necklaces and shiny gems in accordance with social etiquette. But the well-groomed long black hair, a strand of blue silk hanging down from the forehead, and the snow-like powder cheeks clearly painted a delicate light makeup for herself.

Regarding this "first time" meeting seriously, isn't it the only person Ivan himself?

Under the girl's long eyelashes, the sapphire eyes seemed to have galaxies shining.

"Your Excellency General, I toast you a glass, thank you for everything you have done for Yuanfan Lingling."

Holding a glass of white wine, slender hands pinched the feet of the glass, fingers straightened, showing the graceful curves of the hands.

"Miss Olivia is polite, where the duty lies. In fact, it is the common contribution of my colleagues who worked hard with me!"

It seemed that it meant something, and it seemed simple and polite, but after hearing his words, the pink lips of the **** the opposite side slightly evoked.

Ding!

The two cups collided with a crisp sound.

The keen senses felt the faint fragrance of Olivia's body for the first time in the material world, but Ivan's throat was a bit dry, and he couldn't help drinking the wine in his hand.

Even though Olivia had to come out of courtesy, 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 mean to reveal her identity until the secret was completely unearthed.

As a result, the girl gently floated like a beautiful cloud, did not stop in the world and floated back to the sky gently.

After she left, the voice in the banquet hall seemed to be a little higher.

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 appearance is covered 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 as in the material world, is it because I am as good as me, the surface is the same? ’

After Olivia left, Milan pulled Apsuya in a lady's evening dress 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?"

In theory, all creatures like old drivers are paper tigers, and they are powerful mouths, but in reality they can be broken with a single poke. 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 for your concern, Madam! It is very good here, everyone is very enthusiastic."

"By the way, among so many lovely ladies just now, is there any type you like? I'm a famous matchmaker..."

Expectation was implicit in the marquise's emerald-like eyes. UU reading www.uukanshu. com

"Uh..."

When Ivan really understands her intentions...

A feeling of facing the enthusiastic aunt of the neighborhood committee spontaneously arises. Although the appearance and body shape of the aunt are thousands of miles away, it also makes Aiwen helpless.

Then a series of questions were thrown out: family situation, hobbies, love history... the most important thing is that she also asked about her annual income!

And Ivan also answered all her questions faintly and honestly.

Finally, when he saw the other party leaving, his beautiful eyes were slightly shining, and Ivan couldn't help but shudder, feeling that his situation seemed a little uncomfortable.
