Vol 4 Chapter 64 2 girls meet
Above the gray fog, without the “The Fool” above, Klein was directly talking to Grelint as “The World”, he was a little embarrassed:
“Mr. ‘Emperor’, I just happen to have some clues about the ruins you are looking for.”
“Oh? Such a coincidence?”
Grelint pretended not to know, and asked in surprise and joy.
“However, why didn’t you speak during the afternoon meeting?”
When questioned, he took no time to show some doubts and some vigilance.
The top performers are nothing more than that.
“cough.”
Klein coughed and explained unnaturally:
“It’s like this… It seems, maybe, probably, that ruin was accidentally opened by me…”
“what?”
Grelint knew, of course, but his pitch was still abruptly raised several degrees, full of amazement and disbelief.
Klein unconsciously lowered his head a little:
“Cough, talk about this later, talk about it later.
“The reason I came to see you every few hours was because there was a companion who was exploring with me at the time, and I had to ask her for advice.”
“So what? What was the result of your discussion?”
Needless to say, if there is no agreement, Klein will not find himself.
Sure enough, Klein went on to say:
“I can take you to explore the ruins, but there are some conditions.”
“Tell me.”
Grelint was noncommittal.
Klein couldn’t bear his attitude, so he directly came up with the plan discussed with Sharon:
“First, I have to bring that companion of mine… Well, she’s a Sequence 5.”
He gave Miss Sharron’s sequence level, one was to deter Mr. “Emperor”, and warned him that there were strong people of the same level on his side, and he must not act rashly, and the other was to show his sincerity.
Grelin nodded:
“A reasonable request, but I will also bring another companion, she is also a Sequence 5.”
In this case, the “Emperor”‘s side against his side is two-to-one. I wonder if Miss Sharon can stand it?
Klein thought to himself.
He is quite aware of his own Sequence 8’s strength, so he didn’t take it into consideration.
Hmm… With Miss Sharon’s elusive style, if she’s also a Sequence 5, even if she can’t beat her, she shouldn’t have any problem getting away. As for myself… I have to try to make amends when I get into trouble. Besides, with the existence of “The Fool”, the probability of Mr. “Emperor” being malicious should be very small.
After some evaluation, Klein sighed and had to agree to this request.
“Second, I need you to help me smash a magical item as a reward for me taking you to the ruins… As for the exploration income of the ruins, I will not participate in the distribution. You can directly discuss with my companions at that time, and the corresponding , I will not go deep into the ruins with you… These must be written into the ‘contract’ before action.”
In the same sentence, he is very aware of his own strength, and he will not place his hopes on taking risks or gambles at the cost of his life.
After all, unlike the other three members, he was the strongest group of Beyonders below the demigods, each with powerful life-saving abilities.
“It’s okay, my goal is not the harvest, but the existence that symbolizes ‘war’… In addition, I can make the contract myself.”
Grelint happily agreed, his goal was to help Carol complete the ritual, not to explore the ruins and gain something.
It’s a very refreshing promise… Speaking of which, Miss Sharon doesn’t seem to be very wealthy? Otherwise, I will not accept my bodyguard commission.
Klein once again experienced the struggle of the poor.
“That’s good… Uh, by the way, before the official action, should we meet and get to know each other first, and sign the contract at the same time?”
Grelint frowned slightly.
So bold, you dare to meet me directly? This is not Klein at all! Uh, by the way, Ince was killed by me, and the clues he had were definitely unable to fully restore the plan of the top old yb… So, he was beaten by the lack of the old yb, and only saw Rosago. Reckless?
If this continues, Klein will not develop in Rosago’s direction…
interesting!
With a frantic spit in his heart, Grelint said with a calm smile:
“I have time this week, Wednesday and beyond. You can decide the specific meeting place and time. After confirmation, the information can be delivered by letter to 124 Franz Street, Hillston District… Of course, it’s okay to tell me directly through Mr. Fool.” That’s Carroll’s current address.
Giving them the time and place to determine is also Grelint showing his sincerity. After all, he has two Sequence Fives on his side, so Klein must have no sense of security.
Sure enough, Klein breathed a sigh of relief.
“So, are you happy to work together?”
“Happy cooperation!”
…
The next day, early in the morning, Grelint had just eaten breakfast.
“Sir, Miss Audrey is here.”
Hash knew that Audrey was coming to see Grelint today. What she called a “secret visit” meant an informal, no-call meeting, without any political significance, rather than saying that it should be avoided… There are no secrets between her and Grelint.
So early?
Grelint was a little surprised, but nodded as usual:
“Understood, take her to the chat room first, I’ll come right over… By the way, remember to instruct the servant to prepare an extra cup of coffee.”
Carol hasn’t come yet.
Hash was stunned for a moment, and then replied calmly:
“Okay, sir.”
Time was in a hurry, and it was too late to inform Carroll and let her come over earlier. Grelint had to go to the bathroom on the pretext of going to the bathroom, and in the name of “Lord of Order”, he cast the picture of himself praying to her.
…
Audrey is wearing a sky blue solid color fluffy silk cake dress today, which is eye-catching again.
“Good morning, Audrey, I have to say, this dress suits your temperament very well.”
Audrey smiled slightly:
“thanks.”
She glanced quietly behind Grelint, her eyes full of curiosity.
She got nothing.
Grelint: “…”
“Don’t look for her. She has a special status and is not suitable to appear in public now, so it will take a few minutes to come over.”
Grelint didn’t pay much attention to etiquette, and sat down opposite Audrey casually.
“Oh.”
Audrey nodded and heard Grelint ask first:
“By the way, why don’t you tell me what you have to do with me first?”
“Uh…that’s it, do you remember that investment at the end of last year?”
“You’re talking about the project to improve the structure of a small ship’s steam engine?”
How could Grelint not remember, but he had heard from the housekeeper before that Sylvie Heisenberg hadn’t applied for a progress grant for a long time, as if his research had encountered difficulties? After that, he ignored the matter and handed it over to his estate agent, Anthony Stewart.
“Why, Sylvie’s research has progressed? But why are you interested in caring about steam engines?”
Audrey took a sip of coffee, nodded and joked:
“You guy, how rich are you now, you don’t even care about such an important investment.
“Well, his research has come to fruition, and now he’s preparing to set up a company and needs a lot of money… and I bought a 15% stake from him with the help of my dad.
“I’m looking for you this time, in fact, I want to ask you, do you want to make an additional large investment so that you can continue to hold 45% of the shares in your hand, or do you want to reduce your holdings to ease the financial pressure?”
Audrey said it very politely, but Grelint knew that unless he sold most of the real estate and borrowed some money from the bank’s investment, he would not have the confidence to invest in a company that would continue to hold the 45% stake. of.
A small ship steam engine factory, at least one hundred thousand pounds to build.
Grelint thought a little:
“How much has Sylvie’s technology stake been diluted now?”
“12%”
so cruel?
Grelint frowned. Sylvie was originally 55%. Even if Audrey bought 15%, there would still be 40%. Now, it seems that capital really eats people without spitting bones… Of course, this process Here, Sylvie needless to say, the cash alone must be soft.
Although I can inherit the Viscount, and I still hope to go further, but in fact, compared with Audrey, I have about the same wealth, only a small advantage…
Grelint thought, then smiled and said to her:
“You must reduce your holdings, otherwise, even if you sell me, you won’t be able to get the money for the follow-up investment… Why, you want to make money from me?”
Having said that, Grelint moved in his heart, and probably guessed where Audrey got the funds for the event!
On the ship steam engine factory, funds of tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands of pounds flowed at every turn. If Audrey was running it all, it would not be a problem to spend 10,000 to 20,000 pounds.
Sure enough, worthy of being the daughter of a big banker, she actually thought of such a way to hide the whereabouts of the funds.
Audrey nodded with a smile:
“If that’s the case, how about transferring 15% to me?
“In this way, we will each have 30% and become the largest shareholder… On their side, no matter what, we can only make up 40% at most, and that is almost impossible.”
Wonderful! Based on the friendship between himself and the Hall family, the two sides are completely trustworthy. In the past few years, although the property has been handed over to Anthony as an agent, he is directly responsible to Earl Hall, so Grelint has nothing at all. Reasons for not believing Earl Hall. .
Grelint sighed again.
Just when he was quite moved and wanted to ask in detail, the space in the study suddenly rippled like water.
After a while, Carol took a step forward.
She is still as usual, wearing a small leather coat, slim pants, and small leather boots with deep relics. The overall color is light yellow… She is capable and charming, without makeup, and she is youthful and beautiful.
If Grelint had to describe it, “handsome”, a word usually used to describe a man, was especially suitable for Carroll.
Carroll stepped out of the spiritual world, glanced at it subconsciously, and immediately saw Audrey’s beautiful face.
“This is really… extraordinarily ‘exquisite’!”
She found a self-consciously most appropriate adjective in her heart.
As a girl of a similar age who was equally confident in her appearance, the moment she saw Audrey, she couldn’t even breathe. Even, she still has such an inexplicable… heartbeat? .
“As expected of the ‘Becklund’s most dazzling gem’.”
She almost murmured in a low voice, her straightforward and direct Intis praising style made Audrey blushed, and said unnaturally:
“You’re over the top, ma’am.”
Carol shook her head, and out of the corner of the eye swept to the coffee cup next to the black tea on the table, the corners of her mouth curled slightly, and she sat down beside Grelint.
“Hello, Miss Audrey, my name is Carol, and I’m Grelint’s girlfriend… Well, we don’t plan to follow the process of ordinary people to get engaged, so I can also be said to be his fiancee now.”
Audrey was immediately stunned.
She was very familiar with social etiquette and social clichés, but she couldn’t find anything to talk about for a while.
Huh? No, she subconsciously sat next to Grelint… This is a bit deliberate, like it was done on purpose for me to see. She clasped her fingers on her knees… she was a little wary of me? Um, what is she guarding against? …Wait, out of the corner of her eye she was paying attention to Grelint’s attitude…it seemed that it wasn’t just love, but…afraid he would get angry?
Well, I get it, in addition to praising me sincerely, she is also demonstrating to me, declaring Grelint’s sovereignty… But she is afraid that my relationship with Grelint is very close, which will make him unhappy .
Gee, Grelint really found a good girlfriend, and cares about him so much.
Audrey’s thoughts turned fast, she was really happy for her friend to find happiness, and a little depressed at the same time.
But there is no need for your girlfriend to be so defensive about me… Even if Grelint has a more special relationship with her, he and I have been friends for more than ten years. Why do you want to monopolize him as soon as you come? The friendship between us is also very long and strong!
Love, this wonderful word, is something she can’t understand yet.
Audrey probably didn’t know that love was originally exclusive and exclusive. Even if it was family love, it would bravely challenge it… not to use time as a bargaining chip for comparison.
Suddenly, she said narrowly:
“Oh?” She lengthened her voice.
“Really? But I didn’t hear Grelint talk about you?”
Carroll’s body suddenly froze, and she looked at Grelint with a hot face.
The two people here, one to protect love and the other to defend friendship, have already launched a confrontation… Over there, Grelint simply nodded his head when he saw Carroll come out.
He was still thinking about starting a company with Audrey.
Ordinarily, he actually doesn’t have much demand for money now, but making money is an excitatory factor that can stimulate people’s nerves, isn’t it? Besides, this matter has another layer of significance, that is, he placed the focus of his property on Backlund, so no one would notice that his request for the new fief to fall on the Southern Continent was actually “something else”.
Pulling back his thoughts, Grelint faced Carroll’s face that was so close at hand, with that unnatural expression, there was an urge to kiss him… It’s a pity that he couldn’t, not only because the occasion was inappropriate , and because he is just a clone now, he doesn’t want to do his own thing.
“But then again, my ‘main body’ is actually the body of the ‘original owner’ Grelint occupied. This… shouldn’t you be green yourself?”
For some reason, today’s Grelint’s thoughts are not very concentrated, and he flew to Java again, thinking about some mess.
Pull back your thoughts again.
“what!”
He suddenly said:
“It’s true, this is not the beginning of the year, Audrey, have you returned to East Chester? And I just met little Amy at that time, so I wasn’t sure about it… Later, I went to the South Continent and just There is no chance to introduce her to you.”
Gee, that sounds so intimate…
Hearing this, Audrey nodded and said thoughtfully:
“So that’s the case, that is to say, you have known each other for less than a year?”
These words hit Carroll’s sore spot. UU reading www.uukanshu.com She subconsciously regarded Audrey as the biggest potential rival in love, and no matter how she thought about it, there was still one thing she was most afraid of, and that was Audrey far Knowing Grelint better than she did, they were naturally closer.
She has little contact time, which is her weakest point.
However, neither of them knew that Grelint’s current consciousness came from “transmigration”. If I really want to say, he has been in contact with Carroll much more… As for Audrey, he actually still There is really not much contact, and it is more based on the love of the “original”.
…
The matter of partnership investment was put aside for the time being, and the small talk went on in such an orderly manner until Audrey brought the topic to the mysterious world.

Today’s chapter title has an inexplicable strange style, very similar to the title used when the male protagonist met in the harem in an online article ten years ago.
