Chapter 389 Pompeii's Status in the Underworld

With the departure of Grand Duke Buffett, the atmosphere in the hall became much more relaxed.

The Grand Duke's aura was too strong. Although his face was calm and his words were gentle. But as long as he sat there, it was like a mountain, pressing people to breathe.

Even the Marquis of Shillington, who was born in the Eight Great Nobles, had noble blood, strength, power, and reputation, was inevitably a little lacking in confidence when facing Grand Duke Buffett.

In fact, Pompey and his son were also quite nervous.

In addition to the pressure brought by Grand Duke Buffett, Luther's plan has reached the climax. Going up is to obtain the title and go back to Orange to rule the White Eagle Territory legitimately.

Going down is to stay where you are, and what the Pompey family did today will be meaningless.

To obtain the title is to be a king.

Without it, it is a monkey jumping up and down.

A world of difference.

What kind of conversation will King Odin III have with Grand Duke Buffett?

What kind of thoughts will they have about the kingdom and the royal family's position?

This is all uncertain.

"Grandpa Figo, the Prime Minister has said that we are innocent. Shouldn't he give us a chair to sit down? By the way, I also want a cup of coffee."

As soon as Grand Duke Buffett left, Xingge became more naughty and asked the legendary dragon knight, Grand Duke Figo.

Compared with Grand Duke Buffett, this legendary dragon knight is a gentle and polite nobleman who is easy to talk to at ordinary times.

Unlike Grand Duke Buffett, who is shrewd and prestigious.

After listening to this, the noble smiled and called a clerk serving in the hall, asking him to move four chairs and let the four people sit down separately.

Three people from one group sat in a row, and the hostile group, Marquis Shillington, sat opposite.

The clerk actually made a cup of coffee for Xingge.

Xingge said thank you, then crossed his legs and drank coffee happily, which made Luther envious. This is the status of the world.

"Sir Sol, I have tasted a good wine before, called Pompeii wine. I heard that it was produced by a Pompeii family in Orange. Is it yours?" A senior official asked curiously.

This lord looks as aristocratic as always, very handsome. He has the popular pale skin, slender and slim, very temperament.

"This is the Minister of Finance, Viscount Hauger. He is the king's money bag. Sometimes I have no money to spend, I will borrow money from him. Aren't you very short of money? Ask him for money, he will lend it to you."

Xingge put down the coffee and introduced.

Luther's face darkened. This kid exposed my dark history. Isn't it just that I owe you three million gold coins? I will drag it for another seven or eight years, and you will be angry to death.

"We have a loan service in the Ministry of Finance. With Pompey's reputation, you can come to my office to withdraw within 50 million gold coins at any time."

Viscount Hauger said with a smile.

What is status in the world?

This is status in the world.

Before this, who could know what the Pompey family was? Even if Old Sol went to the Ministry of Finance to apply for a private loan as a Knight of the Earth, the amount would not be too high.

Maybe it would be within 10 million.

It still needs to be investigated. Officials from the Ministry of Finance will send people to Orange to conduct a detailed assessment and investigation of the Pompey family's reputation and industrial situation.

Then decide whether to provide a loan.

It's good now.

The Pompey family is already famous in the capital, and everyone knows it. In particular, the relationship between the Pompey family and Xingge seems to be very close.

50 million gold coins loan, come and get it at any time.

This is status in the world.

And is Viscount Hauger really so easy to talk to? Absolutely not. As the king's money bag and the Minister of Finance, if Viscount Hauger is easy to talk to, what will happen to a bunch of people with connections who come to borrow money?

People who are easy to talk to are not good at managing finances.

On the contrary, Viscount Hauger is not easy to talk to, and even has a bit of ruthlessness and selflessness, and has the title of a miser.

Many nobles who thought they had a good relationship with Viscount Hauger went to the Ministry of Finance for loans, but were ruthlessly rejected.

Viscount Hauger gave the Pompey family a credit line of 50 million as soon as he opened his mouth, which was very difficult.

It also made the important officials present more aware of the status of Pompey and his son in the arena.

You must know that Hauger is a very shrewd guy and can judge people very accurately. Once he can tell a person's credit line, then this person has such value.

Can this father and son be worth 50 million gold coins just by relying on face?

Of course, because Pompey and his son now represent the real nobles, these court nobles, although they really want to come up and talk and get to know each other.

But there is no actual action.

"Thank you for your kindness, Lord Viscount." Old Sol bowed politely, then pointed at Luther and said, "If it's Pompeii wine, you have to ask my son Luther. He has always been the one running the family business, and I know nothing about it."

Old Sol's words made Luther show his face.

"So this little guy is not here to make a cameo appearance?" The important officials looked at Luther and thought.

Before this, the news they received was that Old Thor was holding a bloodthirsty monster and fighting with Marquis Shillington, and Marquis Shillington's black divine spear was cut with a crack.

He also knew Xingge and the Eagle King.

He also knew a girl and a young man.

That's right.

Before this, Luther had only two labels in the minds of the big men, a young man and a guy named Luther who was suspected to be the son of Sol Pompeii.

Now Luther officially appeared.

"Oh?" Viscount Hauger was also surprised and turned to look at Luther.

Luther was overjoyed, great, my Pompeii wine.

Luther didn't expect that Pompeii wine had quietly come to the capital.

What a great victory.

And Luther is a guy who is very good at taking advantage of opportunities and hitting the snake with a stick. Back then, Luther had just entered the Golden City for the first time, but he became a new noble pursued by the rich in the Golden City.

The rich rushed to make friends with Luther, and later Luther used these connections to do a lot of great things and became a big man in Orange.

Although this is the base camp of the king's power, the big men are very aware of the position of the nobles in the court, and it is not easy to establish personal relationships with the nobles of the real title.

But Luther can still do something within his ability.

Luther advertised again, smiling and nodded: "Yes, Your Excellency. Pompeii wine is produced by our family."

"That is really a unique wine, but I like to drink it, but it is too difficult to find Pompeii wine near the capital. When the war is over, please bring some to me."

Viscount Hauger said happily.

Obviously this is another alternative noble, a drunkard who likes strong liquor.

"Of course." Luther said with a smile, "But I have a better idea. When I was in Orange, I invented an agent system. If you are interested, I can entrust you with the agency rights of the ten provinces directly under the king. In this way, Pompeii wine can be sold all over the country, and you can drink it often. Are you interested?"

At this tense and exciting moment, Luther talked about business with the Minister of Finance, Viscount Hauger.

The people present, including Old Sol and Xingge, were all dumbfounded.

It's so early today, I'm selling cuteness and asking for tickets.

Meow meow meow! !
