From the moment he stepped into the city lord's mansion, every move he made was elegant, and every detail was impeccable. Whether it was appreciating famous paintings or the way of serving tea, he clearly told the new moon city lord that he was undoubtedly a The son of a wealthy family.
"Please, Mr. Fang."
Sitting at the dining table, City Master Xinyue randomly picked up a chopstick dish and put it on the plate in front of Fang Cun.
It's just such kindness, but it doesn't seem to be able to get a square inch of favor.
Slightly raised his eyebrows, calmly pushed the small plate away in front of him, Fang Cun turned and said to the maid in charge, "Please fetch me a pair of serving chopsticks."
"Ah, I'm really sorry, I was negligent!" Stretching out his hand and patting his head, City Master Xinyue quickly apologized, "I'm used to eating with my daughter on weekdays, but I forgot to order people to prepare serving chopsticks. I'm sorry, I'm sorry."
Negligence? Are you cheating? ! You can forget, do these servants really dare to forget? If it wasn't for your deliberate order to test them, I'm afraid they would have been killed by you long ago.
There was a sneer in his heart, but on the surface he didn't show it at all, Fang Cun lightly raised his glass as a signal, and drank it down in one gulp.
Fang Cun naturally understood what Xinyue City Lord was thinking, and it was nothing more than testing his identity. If he couldn't handle this little thing, he should have died a thousand times already.
These etiquettes and small habits are not something that can be fooled by just pretending, but habits that are really integrated into the bones. No matter how much such knowledge the poor family has learned, at this time, they will still show timidity and absolutely do it. It is not so easy to lift weights like this, and to be at ease.
If it is said that the New Moon City Lord had some doubts about him before because he had not obtained the exact identity from the capital, but after this brief contact, his suspicions have been minimized.
After dinner was over in the midst of an unnutritious conversation, City Master Xinyue suddenly said to Fang Cun, "Mr. Fang is very knowledgeable, so I don't know how good he is at chess?"
"Know a thing or two, it's just a pastime after tea and dinner." Fang Cun nodded and replied with a chuckle.
Just now Fang Cun noticed that there are Go chess displayed in the city lord's mansion, which is the same as in the previous life, so he is naturally full of confidence.
"So, why don't we have a hand-to-hand discussion?" Taking a meaningful look at Fang Cun, City Lord Xinyue invited.
"Dare not to obey."
After entering the study again, setting up the chess pieces, and ordering all the servants to leave, the Lord of New Moon City really got to the point, "Young Master Fang, is there anything you need to do when you come to New Moon City this time?"
Smiling and picking up Baizi to go first, Fang Cun smiled lightly and said, "It's not about anything, it's just going out to relax, after going back this time, I have to perform the coming of age ceremony, I'm afraid I won't be so comfortable in the future. "
His gaze narrowed slightly, and the Lord of New Moon City nodded inwardly. Sure enough, it was related to the coming-of-age ceremony. It seems that the other party may really be your child. This time, he came out just to choose a suitable city and prepare to take over.
However, this is not a good thing.
Now in New Moon City, if the other party takes a fancy to this New Moon City and goes back to ask for it, then he will have a lot of fun.
"Oh, I wonder if Mr. Fang is satisfied with my environment in New Moon City?"
As if seeing through the thoughts of City Lord Xinyue, Fang Cun recently brought up a faint smile and said, "Since I came out of the king's capital, I have seen a few distinctive cities along the way, but now there are many more. A New Moon City, but if it is said to be the favorite place, it is difficult to judge."
These words are very interesting. On the one hand, he did not want to ask for the position of New Moon City Lord, but on the other hand, he also meant to ring the alarm bell for him. If he was not happy, it might not be impossible to win New Moon City.
Of course, these words also have a somewhat tentative meaning. After all, Fang Cun only heard about these news on the sidelines, and he is not sure if it is necessarily the case.
"Although I am the Lord of New Moon City, to be fair, New Moon City is really nothing in our Northern Territory." After dropping a hand, the Lord of New Moon City said casually.
"The city lord is too modest."
"Don't mention this." Smiling, and changed the topic, the New Moon City Lord said, "Young Master Fang is a guest. If there is anything that doesn't suit you, you can tell my brother at any time. No matter what, you, a guest, will not be accepted." It's a grievance."
City Lord Xinyue deliberately emphasized the word "guest" a little bit, and the meaning is self-evident.
"Then I would like to thank you, Lord City Master." I laughed secretly in my heart, but I didn't point out the size, and smiled.
"I'm older than you, so I ask you to call me brother. If you don't mind, you can call me brother. It's not necessary to always call me like that."
"Haha, my brother obeys." Opening the folding fan, fanning it lightly, Fang Cun agreed with a smile.
"By the way, my brother has sent out invitations. After three days, there will be a dinner party. At that time, the nobles of New Moon City will come. If my brother is free, you might as well join in the fun. My brother also just borrowed this Here is an opportunity, let me introduce you, lest someone who is not open-eyed offend my brother, how about it?"
Taking a deep look at City Lord Xinyue, after pondering for a moment, Fang Cun nodded slowly and said, "If that's the case, then I'll bother my brother."
On the surface, although Fang Cun did not show the slightest abnormality, in fact, there was already a huge wave in his heart.
This opportunity is really great. All the nobles in the city will come, and the important figures of the Leng family will naturally also come. If some means can be used Isn't this the best opportunity?
City Lord Xinyue has passed the test for the time being. At least he will not doubt his identity until he gets the exact news from the capital. In this way, with the help of this relationship, he can do a lot of things.
In an instant, Fang Cun's heart had already begun to calculate, although his eyes were still on the chessboard, his thoughts were already gone
"That square inch went to the City Lord's Mansion?"
Upon receiving this news, Leng Xinling couldn't help frowning, but felt an inexplicable irritability in her heart, as if something bad was about to happen.
"Well, I stayed with the city lord for more than two hours, and I just left. It seems that I had a good conversation with the city lord."
"Oh?" Hearing this, Leng Xinling couldn't help but feel a little relieved. From this point of view, this square inch should not be the cold guy back then.
Just, what should I do now?
It can almost be predicted that from now on, the other two families will definitely try their best to find a way to get closer. If they don't think of a way and others take the lead, the Leng family will be too passive.
The worst thing is that once the ancestor died, the people in the family were still busy fighting for power and profit, without the slightest sense of crisis at all, which is really annoying! (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
