Because he had already seen this villa building with the same appearance and internal structure as No. 9 Golden Oak Street, and had seen the sunshine scenes in the painting that belonged to the real world, so when Leo saw the maid who belonged to the Lord of the Sky,

When the nun's uniform was put on by a maid who was a descendant of a noble in the dream world, there was no longer much surprise and surprise in her heart.

On the contrary, this thin aristocratic young man whose clothes were not much different from those in the dream world made Leo couldn't help but pay more attention, because he felt that this person looked familiar, but after comparing it with the vice-brain database, he could not find the same person.

People who match it.

"Who am I? I don't think I need to introduce myself!" After the wheelchair was pushed to the center of the room by the maid, under the attention of everyone, the aristocratic young man introduced himself casually and said with a smile: "I think all my information is with you.

Even some things that I have forgotten must have been recorded in detail by you, so you should know me better than I know myself, right?"

If someone else introduced themselves like this, the merchants present might turn around and leave. After all, even if every merchant present does not have aristocratic status, they still have extraordinary status and power. But the person who said this was the well-known Ander.

Peter Alcott, the youngest son of Emperor Martyr

.

After Peter Alcott finished speaking, everyone around him came forward to greet him and introduce themselves. Their words and deeds showed extraordinary respect for this young man who was so thin that he had difficulty even walking.

The reason why everyone present showed great respect was not just because of the name Alcott, but also because of their respect for Peter Alcott himself.

Peter Alcott has several machinery factories dedicated to him. Although these machinery factories are almost at the bottom of all similar machinery factories in the Ten Towns in terms of scale, the products produced by these machinery factories

All kinds of mechanical items are the top luxuries in the aristocratic circle. They range from mechanical timers that can be held in the hand to steam heating devices installed for houses in the entire city. In short, all the nobles in the ten towns hope that they can obtain one.

An item produced by Peter Alcott's machine factory.

Traders from all over the ten towns have always hoped to be agents of the products of these machinery factories. Even if they are loss-making agents, many people are willing to do so, because what they gain from selling these products is not only property, but also connections.

However, there are always exceptions to everything. Among the more than forty people in the room, except for the special existence of Leo, there were still eight people who stood still and did not express any special attitude towards the arrival of Peter Alcott, and

What's interesting is that these eight people, without exception, all emit a weak psychic wave. It is obvious that they are all pseudo-psykers who use special methods to stimulate their psychic talents.

At this time, just as Leo was looking at the eight people, the eight people also looked at Leo, with doubts in their eyes, and they silently exchanged glances with each other, as if they were talking about Lei

The origin of Europe.

After Witsmir said hello to Peter Alcott, he returned to Leo. He happened to see the eight people looking at Leo. He couldn't help but frowned and said in a deep voice: "These guys are just...

Like Yubato in the cemetery, he came here when he smelled the fishy smell." As he said that, he turned to Leo and whispered: "Although I shouldn't say these words, I think I should remind Mr. Leo

Well, these guys are not trustworthy. You only need to inquire about them and you will know that people who have cooperated with these guys have disappeared inexplicably in the end."

"I don't think it's a good habit to speak ill of people behind their backs, Witsmir." The pseudo-psyker closest to the two of them looked at Witsmir with disdain and said, "Are you still in the mood to wander out now?

I recently heard news that the Ninth Chief has plans to change his direct merchants, shouldn't you stay in Silver Moon City and serve that lord well?"

"You don't have to worry about it!" Wizmir ignored the other party's provocation and just responded coldly.

The other party didn't seem to be coming for Witsmir. He quickly turned to look at Leo and said with a smile: "No matter what price Witsmir is willing to pay, I can pay double. You are a smart man and should

It’s clear that a guy like Witsmir, who can be abandoned by the Ninth Chief at any time, is definitely not a good partner.”

"You guy!" Wizmir clenched his fists angrily when he saw the other party talking bad words and poaching in front of him. It seemed that if the situation wasn't wrong, he might have already taken action.

"You don't have to worry about it, I know what I'm doing." Seeing that the matter involved him, Leo couldn't help but pretend that nothing happened, so he declined tactfully.

What the other party said just now seemed to be more to stimulate Witsmir and not sincerely, so after hearing the rejection in Leo's words, he didn't bother anymore, nodded slightly, turned around and left. The whole process

The other party deliberately ignored Witsmir, who was so angry that Witsmir's face turned red, as if he had been burned.

"Mr. Leo, I..." Witsmir took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in his heart, and turned around to explain to Leo.

Leo raised his hand for a moment, then smiled and said: "Stop talking! Mr. Witsmir, I just think it's not a good idea to change partners casually."

"Thank you." Wizmir exhaled slightly, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and felt a little relieved.

At this time, Peter Alcott had already had brief exchanges with these merchants. At this time, his eyes seemed to inadvertently glance at the few people who did not come forward to say hello, including Leone.

For a moment.

Like other descendants of hereditary aristocrats, Peter Alcott has received special training since he was a child and learned how to hide his emotional changes. No matter how big his mood swings are now, the abnormal expressions caused by emotions are on his face.

He stayed for less than half a second. Unless he was a person with particularly keen observation, it would be difficult for anyone to notice the changes in his expression in such a short period of time.

However, when faced with Leo, who was very attentive and sensitive, and also had the instant memory assistance of his accessory brain system, no hidden changes in his expression could escape his eyes.

At this moment, Leo discovered that Peter Alcott did not show any unusual expression when he looked at the other eight merchants representing the chief wizards of the Wizards Association. Only when his eyes glanced over him, Peter Alcott

The look on Te's face was stunned, and his gaze also lingered on his face for a moment, with a trace of doubt in his eyes, mixed with a trace of confusion.

At the moment when this expression was projected onto the retina and played back by the accessory brain system, Leo was very sure that the youngest son of the seventh Alcott family must be the same as him, feeling that he had seen the other person somewhere, but he couldn't remember it.

"This time I invited you all here through the banquet hosted by my father, mainly for one thing." Although he was confused about Leo's origin, Peter Alcott did not spend too much money on Leo.

Paying attention, he quickly turned to the surrounding merchants and said: "Three days ago, the First Chief calculated that the abandoned city will appear in the town of Seventh Lake. This should be the reason why you are here!"

After Peter Alcott's words fell, the expressions of everyone around him, including Witzmir, also became serious. Leo, who always regarded himself as a bystander, could vaguely sense the appearance of this waste city from his angry changes.

What happened in the town on Seventh Lake was probably what Witsmir had said before, so he concentrated on what Peter Alcott said next.

Among the eight people, a middle-aged man with the strongest spiritual fluctuations in his body stood up, saluted Peter Alcott, and then said in a neither humble nor condescending manner: "Your Excellency Peter, you should know very well that although the waste city

Appeared in the Seventh Lake Town, but the nobles of Lake Town are not qualified to intervene in this matter."

Peter Alcott seemed to have expected that something like this would happen, and quickly stated his plan, saying: "Of course I know this rule, and I have no intention of breaking the rules established by the Wizards Association and the Night Watch.

Rules, I just hope that you, or the people you have hired to participate in this matter, can help me find something after entering the abandoned city. I will not let you do things in vain, so all your expenses for this operation can be

I will bear the responsibility, and after the completion of the task, let the person who completes the commission select five items from my factory and grant permanent agency rights."

After hearing Peter Alcott's words, everyone was stunned, and then they heard a burst of inhalation in the room. It felt like they wanted to inhale all the air in the room into their lungs.

For these businessmen, the transaction conditions proposed by Peter Alcott were so heavy that they could hardly believe it.

Four years ago, a young aristocrat from the town of Fifth Lake who had just obtained noble status was lucky enough to obtain the agency rights for a mechanical item from Peter Alcott. Since then, he has accumulated a large amount of money in just one year.

The wealth and power also increased with the increase in wealth, and eventually it became the second noble family in the town of Fifth Lake.

Only the agency right for one item has already caused such an effect. If there are five items, I am afraid that the person who has obtained the authorization will be able to benefit from it will be an astonishing number. By then, let alone become the owner of Fifth Lake Town.

The second noble family, even becoming the second noble family in First Lake Town is not impossible.

"Is the steam train we are traveling on also authorized?" Witsmir suppressed the excitement in his heart and asked Peter Alcott hurriedly.

"Of course!" Peter Alcott nodded affirmatively and said, "As long as the items are in the machinery factory, we can obtain permanent agency rights."

While everyone was obsessed with the huge benefits implied by the agency rights of items, Leo paid no attention to these benefits. He was more concerned about other things, so he asked: "Sir Peter, what is it you are looking for?"

I think since you have paid such a high price, what you are looking for may not be simple, right?"

As Leo's words fell, the people around him gradually became quiet, and all their attention was focused on Peter Alcott, waiting for the other party to give his answer.

"What I want is very simple, just a dream stone." Peter Alcott quickly announced the answer.

After Peter Alcott finished speaking, everyone fell silent. They were not shocked that the youngest son of the seventh Alcott family wanted this item, but they all showed a look on their faces in unison.

They were at a loss, obviously they didn't know what the dream stone was.

Only three of the eight merchants with profound backgrounds could not help but show solemn expressions on their faces. The psychic fluctuations on these three people were the strongest among the eight. Their statuses were also different. They were vaguely among the eight.

The leaders in the game, obviously they know better than others what the dream stone is and how to get it.

"What is a dream stone?" A merchant couldn't help but asked in a deep voice, out of curiosity.

"You can ask your respective masters. If your masters don't even know what the Dream Stone is, they are not qualified to cooperate with me." Peter Alcott glanced at the merchant and spoke coldly.

responded, then smiled slightly and said to everyone: "I have finished talking about it. If you are interested in cooperating, you can register at my factory in the outer city in two days. If you don't register, you will be considered my competitor.

I hope you won’t blame me for going too far.”

After saying that, he gestured to the maid behind him, and the maid pushed the wheelchair and left the room directly.

"If any of you want to leave, you can ask the servant to take you away." The old housekeeper stood up at this time and said to everyone: "If you want to attend the banquet, you can also ask the servant to take you to the front hall. I hope you can have a good time.

.”

After saying that, the old butler retreated to Leo's side. Even if the person he wanted to protect left, he still regarded Leo as a major threat.

Although the owner of the house left, the other guests in the room did not intend to leave immediately. They gathered in small groups and discussed matters quietly.

In less than five minutes from when Peter Alcott came in to when he left, he said less than ten sentences in total, but it was enough for the merchants present. The only problem now is how to persuade them.

The master behind them, and how they can get the reward they want when they finally succeed.

"I'm leaving first! Later, I will go to the agreed place to find you." As a lone wolf, Leo's cooperation with Witsmir is already the limit he can accept. If there are more collaborators, it will only cause trouble.

Necessary intrigue, so he decided to leave now.

But Witsmir, who took the initiative to seek cooperation from Leo, didn't think so. He hoped to find more collaborators like a fisherman casting a net. In this case, the master behind him would have more opportunities to choose. As long as there is one collaborator

Being favored by his master, even if his mission is completed, he can still maintain his current status.
