Chapter 186 Gossip (Sixth Update)
"A top student from the business school actually participated in the design competition of the School of Architecture and won the third place." Luther expressed his surprise. This gentleman is really a versatile person.
"There were only five people participating in the competition, so my third place is nothing." Kuba shrugged and said.
Even so, Luther still admired him. Even if there were only five people participating in the competition, those four should be the elites of the School of Architecture, and they could get the middle level among the elites.
Kuba's talent in architecture is also excellent.
In this way, there is no need to hire a special designer.
But other things are still indispensable, such as hiring artists to build statues, buying or creating oil paintings, hiring musicians, dance hosts, and so on.
This hot spring resort will be a gold-consuming nest, and it is also a bottomless pit.
One million and three hundred thousand gold coins are actually not too strong financial resources.
Luther felt that when the hot spring resort opened sixteen months later, the gold coins would be almost spent.
The trip to observe the hot spring mountain ended on the same day, and the group returned to Pompeii before dark. After returning to Pompeii, Luther chose a private villa and gave it to Mr. Kuba.
It was not worth many gold coins anyway, which was a drop in the bucket compared to Kuba's annual salary of 120,000.
After settling Kuba in the villa, Luther planned to leave, but before leaving, Luther remembered something and asked, "Mr. Kuba, do you know Lelouch, Bonaparte?"
Kuba frowned and thought about it, then smoothed his brows and smiled and nodded, saying, "I know him. He is a young noble who once appeared in the Golden City for five months. He broke into some social circles in the Golden City, but eventually left. Why do you mention him?"
"Since he broke into some social circles in the Golden City, he must have a promising future. Why did he leave the Golden City?"
Luther asked curiously.
"He seems to be dating a noblewoman and is about to get engaged. But you know, it's a matter between men and women. In the end, the noblewoman became someone else's wife."
Kuba said, and then asked: "You seem to be very concerned about him?"
"So that's the case." Luther shrugged. He didn't expect that Lelouch had this past. No wonder he returned to Pompeii after going out to explore.
Whether it was being robbed of love or something else, it was always emotionally intelligent.
Man.
Then, Luther said: "He is now my mayor."
"Mayor? Lord of the city?" Kuba was surprised.
Luther nodded, and Kuba smiled and said: "You have a good eye. He is a very capable person."
A person who can break into some social circles in the Golden City in just a few months, and win the favor of a noblewoman, and almost get married.
The ability is definitely not bad.
"I have always known this." Luther smiled and nodded.
After learning a little about the gossip about the senior who pretended to be mature, Mr. Mayor, Luther said goodbye to Mr. Bowser and returned to his own Pompeii.
And thought happily.
I don’t know who stole Lelouch’s love, and I don’t know what kind of noble woman abandoned Lelouch, but I will definitely meet Lelouch again in the end.
The great mayor of Pompeii, Mr. Lelouch.
I don’t know what the future will be like.
I’m looking forward to it, it’s quite bloody.
Haha.
Anyway, as Bowser, Brown and his team arrived in Pompeii and were officially hired as the general manager of Orange Group, the hot spring resort project began to be fully started.
The name of the resort is Orange.
All kinds of practitioners, the overall design of the resort, the corresponding artwork creation, the establishment of top wine cellars, the purchase of top racehorses, and amusement park facilities, etc., all started.
Everything started to run perfectly under the coordination of Bowser and Brown.
Sixteen months later, Orange Hot Spring Resort will open perfectly.
At the same time, the sixteen-month-long publicity plan was launched. The Orange Group divided its forces into three groups and began to bombard the entire Orange aristocratic circle.
The three groups were the eldest daughter of the baron, Miss Alice.
Although Miss Alice was very reluctant to run errands, she also fought for a bright future.
She had a wide network of contacts between the baron's territory and several nearby territories.
The second was the Morgan family, which also had a wide network of contacts in the surrounding territories, but the scope was definitely wider than Miss Alice's.
Because this is a huge family, its members include knights, merchants, artists, etc.
Even Miss Amanda's father has certain connections in the Golden City.
Finally, it was Mr. Kuba, Brown.
Mr. Kuba has two ways to publicize. One is his own personal connections, and he publicizes as the general manager of Orange.
The second is to package the publicity work to a private company.
That's right, there is also a company in this world that specializes in publicity, called a publicity company.
Luther heard about it for the first time, it was really amazing.
And with the launch of the vigorous publicity activities, the Pompeii family, in the Orange Group, with the assistance of the resort, once again stood at the forefront of the entire Orange.
This time was more vigorous than the last time the Autumn Wind Bandits were wiped out.
Why?
Because things got bigger.
…………….
Barton Territory, located at the southernmost tip of Orange, is a product of the Seventh Exploration War. There are also several noble territories bordering Barton Territory.
Among them, there is a Viscount Territory in the north.
The title is Viscount Silver Wing, and the surname is Smith.
The border between this Viscount Territory and Barton Territory is a river, which is the river north of the Black Water Mountains where Luther wiped out the Autumn Wind Bandits.
Although the title of this Viscount Silver Wing is Viscount, the scale of his territory is not much different from that of Baron Barton, with a main city, several towns, and large villages and farmlands around it.
The total population is between 100,000 and 200,000.
The scale, military strength, and influence are similar to those of Baron Barton. Baron Baron's first wife was a direct descendant of a famous family entrenched in the viscount's territory.
This family is called the Habsburg family.
The Habsburg family was once a royal family, but later it was ruined, and the members of the Habsburg family were scattered all over the world.
The Habsburg family entrenched in this viscount's territory is a very small branch.
Although the former royal family was ruined, their ancestors brought a rich fortune when they fled. In addition to the management of successive Habsburg members, the Habsburg family is currently a powerful family in several surrounding territories.
The family is famous for its manufacturing industry, especially for its excellent manufacturing of exquisite carriages.
For example, Alice's flashy golden carriage.
Anyway, the Habsburg family is a wealthy and influential family. After Alice's mother died and her father Baron Baron married his current wife, she spent a long time every year living in the Habsburg family's grandmother's house.
Her main network of contacts is also established with the Habsburg family as the starting point.
Now Alice's family has become the publicity ambassador of the Orange Group. She took her flashy golden carriage and came to the Viscount's territory, a castle of the Habsburg family.
