Chapter 56 The King's Dinner
"The Royal Chamber of Commerce? Are you talking about Keynes?" Ang Lee raised his eyebrows, a little surprised by the answer.
When the female manager of the Lidona Chamber of Commerce left, Ang Lee thought about many possibilities and guessed that the other party's backstage might be very large.
But I never thought that the royal family would be behind the Lidona Chamber of Commerce.
Yarman sat down opposite Ang Lee, lowered his voice and said: "This is based on the intelligence of the Clemens family. It may not be His Majesty the King, but it can point to the royal family."
It is always a taboo to discuss royal power. Be careful of the walls when communicating in private.
Especially outside the door, there are guards.
"Then why is the Lidona Chamber of Commerce not as famous as your Berenta Chamber?" Ang Lee continued to ask.
The Berenta Chamber of Commerce can be said to have done business throughout the kingdom and has a very good reputation among the people and the aristocratic circles.
In Ang Lee's opinion, this is the first time I have heard of the Lidona Chamber of Commerce.
Yarman thought for a while and continued to answer: "It depends on how to compare and what business it is doing. If we talk about people's livelihood supplies, our Berenta Chamber of Commerce has the advantage, but what about some special commodities? For example, large batches of iron and weapons and equipment, the Berenta Chamber of Commerce has no courage to do this business."
When the Lidona Chamber of Commerce was first established, the Berenta Chamber of Commerce, which had a deep-rooted and century-old heritage, began to gather resources to suppress and target it.
However, as the background investigation is found to be related to the royal family, immediately change the strategy, try to avoid businesses that conflict with the Lidona Chamber of Commerce, and take the initiative to make concessions in exchange for peaceful coexistence.
Fortunately, the Lidona Chamber of Commerce did not intend to monopolize the market, and did not even pay too much attention to the Berenta Chamber of Commerce, which made the people of the Clemens family feel a little relieved.
Ang Lee nodded, and basically understood the Lidona Chamber of Commerce in Yarman's mouth. The industry with the royal family background does have absolute advantages.
"I understand. I will have a better relationship with the Lidona Chamber of Commerce in the future." Ang Lee continued to answer.
Yarman means that too.
According to income, the Berenta Chamber of Commerce is the first Chamber of Commerce that deserves its reputation.
But the Lidona Chamber of Commerce, which operates the royal family, has more privileges, such as batches of iron ore, weapons and equipment, which the Clemens family dare not do.
This requires cooperation with the Lidona Chamber of Commerce to buy it.
...
The second day.
After two days of rest, Ang Lee and others also recovered from the fatigue of the journey.
After the installation, take a carriage to a place where you can prepare for treatment of lithology.
"His Excellency Ang Lee, is it still a habit to live here?"
As soon as I got off the car, I saw Minister Eble coming up to greet him in person.
Eble was arranged by King Keynes to assist Ang Lee, specializing in coordinating the treatment of lithopathy.
Ang Lee smiled slightly and said softly: "I don't know how many times better than my original residence."
"Haha, as long as you are satisfied, the treatment room has been prepared for you. If you have high security issues, you can treat them with peace of mind." Ebel said with a smile.
Ang Lee thanked and nodded.
It took a day to make things what they are now, and it can be seen that Eble is a hard-working minister, and it is no wonder that Keynes gave it to him.
When you enter the treatment room, the room is more than twice as large as a single room in a tavern.
A rectangular oak desk was placed in the middle, with some quills, paper, and the flag of the Kingdom of Session, and the flag representing King Cairns.
Ang Lee sat down on the chair, and a loud publicity speech chanting the king's kindness had sounded outside the door.
Only after the speech was over did people come in one after another and receive treatment from Ang Lee.
Although all the nobles who came in were dressed in bright clothes and noble status, under the deterrence of the king and the defensive guards, they all honestly received Ang Lee's treatment.
Some nobles even intended to please Ang Lee and invited him to the mansion to have a banquet and to give him some precious gifts.
Ang Lee refused one by one.
If he only represents himself, these gifts are likely to be accepted with the idea of "not for nothing".
But now he still wants to represent His Majesty the King, so he will not allow him to do anything randomly.
The treatment in the noble area alone lasted for more than ten days.
The population of the royal city is as exponential as that of ordinary cities.
...
The day when the noble district ended.
His Majesty the King prepared a feast and invited Ang Lee and some nobles in the city to attend the feast.
Even though Ang Lee was a little tired because of a long sitting day, he had to deal with this nobleman and enhance his feelings.
The banquet was held on the second floor, and the gorgeous banquet hall showed luxury. The first seat of the long table was King Cairns and the queen, while the invited nobles sat in turn.
After introducing one by one, Ang Lee found that he was the only one in the room, who was a small viscount.
Cairns signaled that he could start, and the waiter bell gently ringed the copper bell to fill the long table with hearty food.
The food is so abundant that it is not comparable to ordinary nobles.
"These days are going well? Have you ever encountered any trouble?" Cairns asked softly while cutting the beef on the plate.
The moment His Majesty the King spoke, the noisy dining table suddenly became quiet.
Even if Cairns and Ang Lee sat on both ends of the long table, they could clearly hear what each other said.
"It went very smoothly. Lord Ebul's credit, everything was ready. I was just responsible for going to the local area for treatment." Ang Lee said with a smile.
Eibul, who was beside him, smiled and quickly covered it up, and said softly: "I just did what His Majesty arranged, so what is the credit."
The two sang together, and finally took pictures of the horses for Cairns.
"It's good to go smoothly. There will be ordinary areas next, and Ebel must also be prepared. The ordinary areas have a large population, and effective treatment must be ensured at the same time." Cairns continued.
Ordinary areas refer to civilian areas. Although the security of the royal city is good, it cannot avoid a mixture of fish and dragons.
Among them, there are dangers in people who are waiting for opportunities to move.
"Yes, your Majesty." Eble answered hurriedly.
All the nobles noticed that Keynes was optimistic about Ang Lee and even took the initiative to raise topics and ask about some ordinary things many times.
When His Majesty the King kept silent, the nobles began to take the initiative to find topics and chat with Ang Lee.
"Vissue Lee An, from which family..."
"His Excellency Ang Lee, you are so young and promising."
Facing everyone's conversation, Ang Lee replied one by one with a smile.
The queen is a woman with elegant manners, beautiful and calm manners, keeping her smile at all times when the nobles talk.
Seeing that the banquet was coming to an end, it was still early, and Keynes had no plans for the next step.
He whispered, "I heard that the theater has written a few good scripts, why not go and read them?"
Keynes raised his eyebrows, which was a good note.
