While Omilie arranged for someone to deliver the meal to him, Raymond looked at the pile of invitations one by one.
The new ship of the largest chamber of commerce in Kaidun Port will be launched into the sea in three days...
The West Coast Knights Association comes to Caiton Port for fall enrollment, and a great knight will attend the ceremony...
These invitations handed in from outside were all sent by local rich people who had escaped from the Colosseum, or from famous people. Raymond threw the invitations to the ground casually, and Omilie would go there later. tidy.
The invitation from the City Lord's Mansion is that Seche's sister Wenlanduo will hold her coming-of-age ceremony in five days.
He wanted to throw this invitation directly on the floor, but after a moment of hesitation, Raymond's delicate face appeared in his mind. Raymond frowned and thought about it, but decided to throw this invitation instead. Put it aside.
Omilie, the personal maid who was standing at the door with her servants, saw that all the invitations in Raymond's hands had been read, and then she quickly called the other maids and quickly delivered Raymond's meals.
A large plate of barbecued meat, soft white bread, rich and fragrant broth, and a salad made of fresh vegetables.
The portions of all the food are very generous, enough for five or six people.
The good appetite was related to the fact that Raymond didn't leave the study for three days. As he meditated for a long time, his appetite became weird unknowingly.
Such a quantity of food was only enough to keep Raymond full.
Even if it were doubled, it would at most make him a little full. Raymond's digestive ability became stronger and stronger, and his body became like a camel on the earth before. Every time he ate, the food he ate would It is quickly decomposed and absorbed, turned into nutrients in his body, and stored.
While gnawing on the barbecue dripping with grease, Raymond casually asked Omilie who was standing aside: "What's new in Caitun Port these days?"
Omilie, who was standing respectfully next to her, cleared her throat and then began to speak in her sweet voice.
The annual knight school on the west coast has begun enrolling students, and many young people from nearby areas have begun to flock to Caitun Port to wait for the annual knight enrollment.
The largest chamber of commerce in Kaiton Port, a new ship that has been built for nine months will also be launched in a few days. It is said that this ship uses a new power system and has invested more than one million gold coins.
Because of the turmoil in the Colosseum three months ago, many nobles who were preparing to resolve disputes through beast fighting began to look for other methods. It is said that the business of some slave owners has become booming.
Of course, the biggest news is that Miss Wen Landuo, the owner of Kaidun Port City, is about to hold a coming-of-age ceremony, which means that she will become the most popular bride to be married.
"Bride to be married?" Raymond, who almost choked on the barbecue, turned his head and frowned, and asked.
Under Omilie's explanation, it turned out that most local girls, even those from noble families, would make a marriage contract before the coming-of-age ceremony. However, the only family in Caitun Port was the city lord's family, because the old city lord many years ago was a Wizard apprentices, so all Tori family girls only talk about marriage after their coming-of-age ceremony.
In view of the tradition of the Tori family, one week before Miss Wenlanduo's coming-of-age ceremony, all young people of appropriate age can send their personal information to the City Lord's Mansion. If they can be recognized, they will have the opportunity to participate in Miss Wenlanduo's coming-of-age ceremony. qualifications.
Therefore, the coming-of-age ceremony for the girls of the Tori family has become a competition for young talents. After so many years, four young people have successfully become the sons-in-law of the Tori family and have risen to the top in one step.
Looking at Omilie whose face turned crimson, Raymond chuckled.
It seems that the Tori family is still very good at putting on a show. They organize the coming-of-age ceremony of the family girls with great fanfare to attract young people of the right age to come here to participate in such selections. On the one hand, it can attract talents to come to Kaiton Port, and on the other hand, it can be regarded as optimization.
The blood of the family has blossomed.
Thinking of Hewenson, the current acting city lord of the Tori family, Raymond felt uncomfortable. This guy who looked very sunny on the surface was definitely not as harmless as he seemed.
The last time he was in the master bedroom of the old city, Raymond didn't feel very good. He didn't quite believe that Hewenson would act so tragically just because of his old father's words, even in front of an outsider like Raymond.
, shed tears.
After stuffing all the food in front of him into his stomach, Raymond finally felt comfortable. He held the scented tea that Omilie had made for him, and happily let Omilie take the box placed on the bedside.
come over.
The exquisite wooden box, the wood used has no smell, contains the Oriental tobacco leaves sent by Hewensen.
Most of the golden tobacco leaves, which are still primary processed products, are carefully cut into thin strips and then rolled up with pieces of golden tobacco leaves.
Looking at the things in his hands, Raymond narrowed his eyes and showed a nostalgic smile on his face.
Because there was no suitable paper, Raymond had to use these tobacco leaves to make a cigar like this for smoking.
The rising smoke curled around the room. As Raymond lay down in the chair, his thoughts became ethereal.
Omilie, the personal maid who was already familiar with Raymond's temperament, began to beat Raymond's legs with her little fists, soothing his muscles and relaxing his body.
After long-term meditation, although the spirit will become more exciting, it will also bring about muscle soreness and general fatigue afterwards.
In Raymond's opinion, meditation is like a stimulant that makes people happy. The powerful feeling caused by the entry of active substances throughout the body during meditation is addictive.
Night fell unknowingly, and the cool breeze blowing from the terrace made the temperature in the room drop a lot. Raymond, who was shrouded in smoke, inadvertently found Omilie beating his legs, and his eyes were slightly red.
, her pink little fists were also beating once and for a while, as if she had something on her mind.
"What's wrong? What's bothering you?" Raymond asked as he put out the last piece of the cigar.
Omilie, who was startled by the sudden words, quickly lowered her head and explained. "Ah! I'm sorry, Mr. Raymond, I'm fine..."
The slender and straight neck, smooth skin, and clear and soft voice made Raymond feel a little dazed for a moment. He reached over and caught Omilie's hair in his hand, twisting it unconsciously between his fingers.
, and waited.
The atmosphere in the room became more charming, and a strange atmosphere slowly formed.
After a long time, Omilie said timidly: "Lord Raymond, can I ask you something?"
