When returning from Church of Saint Samuel to 160 Berklund Street, Klein saw the white-gloved butler Walter greet him.
"Sir, someone just sent a business card that his employer wants to visit you between 4 and 5 o'clock." Walter said calmly.
Klein recalled which visitor it might be, but could not find the clue, so lightly nodded and said:
"Who is his employer?"
Walter glanced around, seeing that the male and female servants were far away from each other, they answered:
"Baron Syndras."
Baron Syndras ... that multimillionaire who relied on the Conservative Party and Duke of Negan to gain the baronial title, one of the kingdom ’s most famous bankers and business owners? I helped Mrs. Mary to buy shares in Kaum company. The competitors were him and his friends ... he visited me personally for this matter? That is, the transaction of 10.0003 thousand pounds is not necessary for him ... Klein walked up the stairs leading to second floor while thinking of electricity.
Walter was half a step behind, followed by:
"Sir, if you do n’t want to see the baron Syndras, I will tell him later that you are listening to the preaching of the bishop at Church of Saint Samuel, and you have lost time. Maybe you will be back very late."
The subtext of this housekeeper is that Baron Syndras is a believer in Lord of Storms, and it is impossible to go directly to Church of Saint Samuel to find someone.
Klein thought for a while, smiled slightly, and said gently:
"This is an aristocrat who is very influential in the banking industry. There will definitely be intersections in the future, so I have to meet him.
"Well ... wait in the second floor's most sunny living room."
—— According to Klein, Baron Syndras is the third largest shareholder of Beckland Bank and the largest shareholder of Nanville Bank. In the banking industry of Ruen Kingdom, it is definitely one of the most influential people.
"Yes, sir." Walter didn't bother.
At 4:10 pm, Klein saw the visitor who often appeared in the newspaper in the preset small living room.
The only difference from his imagination is that after three o'clock, the Beckland cloud layer became thicker and the sky became darker. There was a drizzle of rain, and there was no sunshine that made people feel cheerful and warm.
The baron Syndras is exactly the same as the photos published in the newspaper. The black hair doped with silver wire is neatly combed, revealing a broad head and slightly higher hairline.
He has a round face, but he lacks enough meat to support it. His cheekbones are quite tall, and there are distinct wrinkles everywhere.
Unlike most ruenians of his age, Baron Syndras has no whiskers, his cheeks are cleanly shaved, and his blue eyes are shallow to almost colorless.
He is accompanied by a close-fitting male servant and a bodyguard, both of which are less noticeable in appearance. The biggest feature of the former is that the hair is a little thin, the latter is shaved short, but there is a handful of ear The bushy beard extends to the lower jaw.
"Good afternoon, distinguished baron, I'm honored to be a guest." Klein pressed his chest with his hand and saluted.
Normally, the host faces the visitor, leaning forward more, extending the right palm, and shaking hands, but at this moment, in front of him is an aristocrat, who must be more polite.
The baron Syndras nodded slightly and smiled:
"No, you don't need to be polite, I should have come to visit you long ago, a gentleman who has experienced many things and knows southern continent very well."
Slightly greet, the two sit in their seats next to each other, the body servants and bodyguards.
Klein is about to speak. Baron Syndras has said calmly and intimately:
"Dantes, I admire people like you, not everyone can get wealth from the chaotic southern continent. This must have enough courage, courage to face difficulties, and amazing judgment.
"When I was on the verge of bankruptcy, I also wanted to restart southern continent in the past. Unfortunately, I am not a brave man."
Although Baron Syndras only later became a nobleman, he was not a civilian in the true sense. His great-grandfather and his grandfather benefited from the colonial development and earned a lot of money from maritime trade. A successful businessman, his father invested in industry and accumulated enough reputation and a lot of factories.
In his generation, backed by rich family property, he rushed into the booming banking industry and became one of the earliest millionaires in Ruen.
In this process, Baron Syndras has suffered three failures, but all of them came out of one by one. Among them, the most dangerous one, the Nanville bank he founded had a serious reputation crisis and was run short. It was almost bankrupt.
Always talk about my experience in southern continent ... This is to tell me that he has found that there is a problem with my identity, so as a warning? Oh, he probably can't think of it. The southern continent experience he mentioned repeatedly is all fake ... Klein snorted inside, and the surface responded normally:
"That is not bravery, but reckless.
"Most people who go to southern continent do have an adventurous spirit, but only this one."
Before waiting for Baron Syndras to speak, he smiled instead:
"I almost hired Mr. Ribak as a housekeeper. He said you are a good employer."
Baron Syndras listened quietly and sighed:
"This is something that I feel very sorry for.
"I sincerely hope that Ribak can continue to be my butler, but he cannot overcome the contradiction in his position."
Speaking of which, Syndras Baron looks at elegant and elegant middle-aged gentleman Dawn Dantes, picked up the black tea sent by the servant and gently sipped:
"I also sincerely hope that we can become friends and hope that you can transfer the 3% shares of Kaum to me.
"I will give you conditions that you cannot refuse."
Here ... but there is a contract between me and Mrs. Mary ... Klein is silent for two seconds, sighing and laughing:
"I take credit very seriously."
Hearing such an answer, the baron Syndras did not have any anger on the surface, half surprised and half curiously laughing:
"Do n’t you listen to the conditions I gave?"
The Klein of the Dawn Dantes image deliberately smiled wryly and spread out his hands:
"I am afraid I cannot refuse."
"haha." Baron Syndras suddenly laughed and slowly stood up, "You are as funny as the rumor, and have a firm will not mentioned in the rumor."
He glanced at his bodyguard and close-fitting male servant and smiled to Dawn Dantes with a smile:
"It is definitely better to be a partner with you than a competitor. Well, I should say goodbye. There are still many things waiting for me to deal with."
Is this a sincere compliment, or is there a hidden threat? Klein is not Audience, it can't be interpreted so subtlely, and can only be brazenly responded:
"I also have similar feelings, and I look forward to the opportunity to cooperate with the Baron in other fields."
Baron Syndras in a formal suit and bow tie nodded with a smile. Without further ado, he was sent out by the Dawn Dantes with the housekeeper and the servant all the way out of the main entrance.
The gorgeously decorated carriage of looks at gradually left, and the housekeeper Walter suddenly said:
"Sir, do you need a few bodyguards temporarily?"
Ah? Klein almost did not reflect the meaning of his butler.
Seeing no change in the employer ’s expression, Walter added:
"Sometimes, competition in the business field will also bring about personal safety issues."
Mr. Butler also heard the hidden threat from the Syndras baron? Klein micro hook mouth corner said:
"I am not worried about this, because this is Beckland."
Because I have already registered the number with Church of the Night, because I am preparing to cooperate with the military ... So, I did not worry about being retaliated in the extraordinary field, and I did not worry that things would develop like Intis ambassador, and Syndras The baron is also a successful person with status and status. It can't be so reckless ... Klein thought silently in his heart.
When Walter tried to say something more, he smiled again:
"However, caution is always a good habit.
"Um ... you can ask the two bodyguards to covertly protect them and try not to be discovered by the servants at home."
"Okay, sir." Walter responded immediately.
Klein thought about it and said to him again:
"Go to the Macht MP ’s house and invite him and his wife and daughter to the Intis Serenzo restaurant for tomorrow ’s dinner. If they are not available, you can postpone."
He intends to tell the Macht MP that he is ready to be tested by the military and complete a small arms deal.
The most convenient way was to go directly to the Macht congressman's house and make a free comment. However, considering that there may be a half God of 《Thief》 path beside Harula, it is possible to find the grey mist breath on his body under close contact , Klein changed his mind and set the location at the restaurant outside.
As a result, according to Klein's, the person who failed to "parasitize" Harula cannot act together.
…………
Quinn was hiding in the shadow of trees, and a brown carriage of looks at drove slowly and turned to a street of Queen District.
There is an obvious coat of arms on the carriage. The main body is a flower and two rings. This belongs to the palace Royal Guard Commander of Ruen Kingdom, Viscount Staford.
Quinn saw nothing, and left the hiding place in frustration, went to the nearby public carriage, returned to the Beckland bridge district domain all the way, and walked into eastern district.
Coming to the pub on Dharavi Street, Quinn arrived at the bar smoothly under the evasion of a drunk, and directly asked about the bartender that wiped the cup:
"Are there any new orders?"
bartender suddenly laughed:
"Yes, the former Walter housekeeper who paid 200 pounds for a few scammers has given a new commission. It is very simple, secretly protecting his employer for a few days, and the remuneration interview is definitely generous.
"He is very satisfied with the efficiency of your last task and assigned us to ask you first.
"How about it, are you interested?"
Quinn was quite impressed by the housekeeper and his employer because they spent a full 200 pounds to find a scammer who only lied to 1000 pounds of fabric.
It ’s very generous, and it ’s very easy to pay ... Quinn nodded in retrospect:
"Okay."
