Chapter 620: Things About the Lanqi Family
The next day.
In the eastern part of Ikerite City-state, Wilford's new house.
In the spacious and bright first-floor restaurant, the morning sun shines through the window lattice, carrying the outline of the leaves outside the window, and gently falls on every corner.
In the courtyard, there is occasionally a summer morning breeze, bringing the elegant fragrance of various flowers in the distant garden.
Today's breakfast at Wilford's house is different from the past.
On one side of the dining table, in addition to the head of the family, Noe, there is also a special figure.
"Dad, can you give me some money?"
"No!"
The head of the family, Noe Wilford, who was sitting at the head of the dining table, had the same expression as usual, and when his eyes fell on Lanqi, he unconsciously revealed some complex emotions.
Noe was angry when he thought of it, because this kid, his account numbers have dropped rapidly in the past year, and now the company's cross-border trade has shrunk by more than half, and the purchase of a new house in Ikerite has another large expenditure.
If it weren't for Lanqi's own academic performance, he would be no different from that kind of prodigal son!
"Okay."
Lanqi knew that he had already taken a lot of money from his father in the past year, and finally he couldn't get any more.
But he was really short of money now.
Except for the bonus from the Shadow World Management Association of the Southern Continent after the completion of the seventh-level Shadow World, and the small amount of savings left before, he actually had no other money.
He did bring back a lot of rare quality packaged magic cards from the Northern Continent, but when he passed the customs of the Southern Continent, he did not declare them, which was considered as his own use. If he traded them, it would not only be very troublesome to put them on the shelves, but also require a huge amount of tax to be paid.
What's more, these cards are indeed his backup fuel. He will go to the Krei Empire soon and doesn't want to sell them.
Next, he will go to the Persian Kingdom. He wants to buy the auxiliary materials for the production of [Kaliera's Shadow Weaving Record], which will cost a lot of money.
Although he has a lot of salary and privileges as a platinum card maker invigilator, and he also has a very high discount when buying materials from the Southern Continent Card Maker Association, but before going to the Persian Kingdom next, it is better to have more money on him.
I can't just go to Hyperion and tell her "Hyperion, I'm out of money, lend me some money", it feels so wrong.
Her Duke's family is indeed rich, but the money is in Duke Migaiya's account and cannot be withdrawn before inheritance. Her own money is saved by her frugal life since she was a child. It can be said that she lives more frugally than most noble ladies.
In order to make money, Lanqi has begun to accept card making commissions.
Of course, the remuneration given by the president sister is quite generous, which is completely worthy of his price as a platinum card maker.
But there are not many such orders, and if he is not familiar with the person, he will not help to make exclusive secrets such as transformation cards.
The dining table carved from fine mahogany is coated with a layer of light lacquer on the surface, reflecting the silver tableware, glass wine glasses and Lanqi's pensive expression on the table.
While he was thinking, the breakfast delicacies brought from the kitchen gradually enriched the table.
"How have you been doing in school recently?"
Noe motioned for Ranchi to eat, picked up the tableware in an orderly manner, and asked Ranchi.
"After the second year, I have been much freer in general. There are not so many affairs of the student union. I only need to go to Professor Bolaio's workshop to study with the professor every day. It may be a bit busy in the past few days."
Ranchi stretched his fork towards the dishes of Wilford's house and said.
Today is Friday, and tomorrow is the weekend.
After returning home yesterday, I helped Miss Florence make a card that changes into a teenager. When I go to the old liberal arts building later, I will go to the third floor and leave the card in the student union room.
Ranchi has not returned home since returning from the shadow world.
Dad and his friends moved from the border of South Wantina to the capital Ikerite for temporary residence. The residence is located further east of the Cat Boss Restaurant and closer to the commercial district of the South Continent Card Maker Association near the Erica Magic Tower and Hutton Pedestrian Plaza on the east side of the capital Ikerite.
So Ranchi went directly back to Wilford's house after leaving the student union room last night.
Since Professor Bo Laao told him that it was actually OK to arrive at the laboratory before 9:30, Lanqi can now have a leisurely breakfast at home and then go back to school without rushing.
As for the poet of great love, she has the key to Lanqi's dormitory. She did not leave school with Lanqi yesterday. After get off work in the laboratory, she went directly back to the card-making workshop in Lanqi's dormitory. I guess she also went to the Magic Engineering Institute early this morning.
"Very good. Seeing your current state really makes me sigh."
Noe glanced at the side of the restaurant and couldn't help but sigh.
After seeing that Lanqi was not drinking too much, a new wine cabinet was installed in the restaurant of the new home, which displayed fine wines from all over the southern continent.
Whenever this bastard drank and had no memory at all, Hans said that he was very happy because he shot a pigeon that day, and accidentally broke into the Church of the Goddess of Destiny and accidentally knocked a gem off the statue, causing a lot of trouble for the priests.
Fortunately, the kind and noble priests did not care about his mistakes, saying that this was also a kind of fate.
While the father and son were chatting, the home magic device that Noe had opened earlier in the restaurant also emitted a new program sound.
"Hetton Times Channel, today's good morning sound brought to you is a song by Lanfu Wilford, a new artist signed by the Magic Engineering Academy of Ikrit Academy."
The spoon in Lanqi's hand trembled.
Then, the familiar and sweet voice began to sound in the Wilford family's restaurant——
"My dear, you are so cute today~"
"So cute that I want to eat you instead of breakfast~"
"The words that are hard to express can now be conveyed to you without reservation~"
"Wilford, isn't that the same as our family name?"
Noe thought it was Lanqi Wilford at first.
"Is this song popular among young people now? But the voice sounds a bit like Miss Tata."
Noe listened to a few words and commented.
"Just getting close to you, my heartbeat speeds up and is mixed with sweetness~"
"Your cute appearance makes me intoxicated. Before the memory begins to fade, I want to be with you forever like a lucid dream~"
"It's unlikely. Miss Tata's tone of voice is completely different from this."
Hans, the butler who came over with a plate, frowned slightly and answered after listening for a while.
He was just passing by.
He put down the plate and left again.
"Oh~ I feel like I'm about to suffocate, but you are the air, I can't wait a moment~"
"I think it's Miss Tata's voice."
Noe put down the tableware, closed his eyes and savored it carefully, then said.
"Lanqi, why don't you speak?"
Noe suddenly looked at Lanqi who was sitting at the dining table with stiff movements.
