The Magician of Clow

Chapter 649 A little bit of catching up

Ask, of all the powers in the world,

What is the simplest and most complex power available to all?

If you ask me to answer - it should be 'economy'.

To put it bluntly, it is money.

It does not have any material value in itself, but under the will of the whole society's common concept, it has the power to purchase, occupy, determine status, and even control life and death.

In the manor on the outskirts of Milan, the black suit sat on the seat of the afternoon tea pavilion in the garden,
Fangran crossed his legs and propped his cheek with his left hand on the armrest. He leaned on the comfortable chair and looked at the servants in the whole manor below in a daze.

Gold, or should I say the power of money, is really strong,

This beautiful estate in a good location had been his since last night.

Viscount Barofi, who was a little trembling after being frightened by the last blow, sent someone to complete all the procedures as quickly as possible.
Then he took a group of his personal servants and left Milan in a hurry, leaving only some ordinary servants who were normally hired to be in charge of the garden, cleaning, and kitchen.

Originally, this should have been a very troublesome thing, from preliminary negotiations to bargaining, to the final decision, transaction and signing of the contract.
But the large amount of premium gold made everything easier. He even had someone rehire a suitable housekeeper and maid from the city of Milan before dark last night.
While it may seem extravagant and foolish to those who snicker with money far beyond their means,
But Fangran didn't care. After all, to him, a piece of gold and a box of gold were just 1% and 5% that would not take long.

"Master, I have prepared black tea for you, please use it slowly."

One of the newly hired head maids walked under the gazebo with a tray, and gently put the enamel teacup on the table in Fangran's hand. She didn't bring the dessert cake needed for afternoon tea,

Because the girl sitting on the chair on the other side was eating a chiffon cake with soft cream with a fork,
By the way, that chiffon cake is also 1%.

"Ah, thanks, Sharon."

The woman named Sharon is a typical European female face. After seeing the price offered by Fangran, the maid who took the initiative to recruit can also serve as the housekeeper.

It can't be said that she has a pretty and ordinary appearance, but she has good facial features. Since yesterday, Fangran and Ling have handled the matter of taking over the manor in an orderly manner.

Truly a rare talent in this industry.

Although they couldn't understand each other, Fangran still instinctively said thank you. In fact, he has never been served so much from morning to night, and to be honest, he hasn't seen so many things he threw out yesterday. gold,

Speaking of which, how much did he spend these two days?
I don't know the specific price in this era, but Fangran didn't care, and told himself to get used to it, because the night he left Yier with Ling in his arms,
He was determined to give Ling the best life in this era, and for this he had to let go of his unaccustomed shrinking.

Maybe boys are creatures who always take responsibility and become mature for the happiness of others.

Until now, Fangran has finally been captured by the "temptation" that Veronica has been showing to herself, arranging open schemes,

I have a clearer understanding of the height of my 'similar' figure, and understand the power brought by 'money'.

What was it like?

To give some very real examples, you don’t have to sacrifice your health for money, you don’t have to waste time to save money, and you can boldly say to the girl you like, ‘I support you! '.

There is no choice phobia, you can have what you want, and if you don’t like it, put it aside instead of keeping it or eating it if you feel sorry for the price.

I feel more secure, no matter what I do, I feel more confident and confident, and I don’t have any inferiority complex while riding a bicycle and looking at the luxury cars on the side of the road.

No need to compete, no need to grab, no need to socialize for the sake of socializing, people will naturally come to know you, learning is only out of voluntary and self-improvement, not for finding a job,

In the morning, I saw a place with a particularly beautiful foreign scenery on the news. In the afternoon, I took a plane to play. I took a small bag to go wherever I wanted to go, buy what I lacked, and mailed souvenirs home directly, purely for enjoyment.

Such a big and beautiful world, to do what you like, to go to a stable job where you have to go to work every day,
Life is not survival, it is living,

Probably that's it.

It's incredible that Fangran now feels that he can do all these things,
For the first time, I really had this feeling, felt the power given to me by 'money',

Independent of the 'combat', it also belongs to the strength of the participants.

Vaguely, he felt that he was getting closer to Ye Sheng and other people in the bureau. It wasn't the night when the hot night in the city ended and everyone felt that they were in the same world, but from some unexplainable place. ,

He felt that he had slightly caught up with everyone in the game,

I feel more like a participant.

Perhaps this is the purpose of Su Qun asking for recovery and throwing him to the Sacred Heart Hospital for a day,

Although he did it a little late.

Suddenly, Fangran looked at the manor villa in the early twentieth century, and thought of the words of that figure in the garden in Moshui Linglang.

growing up?

With a helpless smile, he sighed and recovered from his trance. Fangran looked at the girl in the gothic skirt sitting in the shade. The black stockings in cowhide boots were shaking slightly on the seat.

"Hey, Ling, do you want to go outside?"

Fangran put the teacup on the saucer, propped his arms on the table and looked at the girl who was so surprised by the taste of the cream chiffon cake,

Blinking his eyes and smiling, he proposed, and his purpose of saying that was not because of anything else, but because...
Living in such a large manor, the life of a rich noble is really boring.

Because the oil painting-like life texture and exquisite and elegant life attitude you saw in the movie are all figured out by the nobles of this era who don’t do anything every day.
Well, that might be an exaggeration,

But Fangran felt that this was really the case, because from the description she got from Sharron (Ling translated it to him), the people in the noble family where she worked before,

It means dressing up, drinking tea, chatting, reading, shopping, enjoying what you can enjoy every day, and improving yourself and the quality of life every day by 'keep improving',

This should be the silhouette of most of the so-called 'nobles' in this country in this era,

No wonder Italy fought like that in World War I.
Thinking of this in his heart, Fangran saw Ling who had finished eating the last piece of cake with a silver fork, blinked her eyes wide, then jumped off the chair gently, walked to him obediently,

Fangran looked at the cream on the corner of her mouth and smiled helplessly, knelt down and wiped it off for her with the napkin on the table,

Then he took her hand and stood up, and said to the head maid who had been standing behind them:
"Sharon, help me prepare the carriage."

Ling, who was holding his hand, looked up at him with her delicate face, Fangran just remembered that Sharon couldn't understand what he was saying,
Then this time it was the girl who turned around and looked at the smiling Sharon who spoke briskly:
"Sharon, help us prepare the carriage."

The head maid who had been smiling and standing behind the two bowed gracefully and said:
"Okay, Miss, Young Master, I'll go and tell the coachman to prepare."

　[Question and Answer Small Theater] "Wishin, why is today's chapter so short?" Wishin: "Because I went to practice driving in the morning, and the most painful thing is to change the exam and change the point. I'm not familiar with it, do it! I feel The second day of the day after tomorrow was a close call, but speaking of it, I actually wrote a lot of chapters today, but I cut it into 18 words, because I’m going to leave on the [-]th, and I still don’t know what happened in those three days. Do it, how much can be saved is a point ((≧д≦It’s not because no matter how much I write, you always say I’m short, so I deliberately recalled what I saw online and integrated a little bit of my own feelings. If I write more, that’s okay. Up to the example of three hundred words, and I deliberately counted this paragraph as a piece of paper to pierce your hearts! Bababababaga! Hmph~)”
