A farming master in Stardew Valley

Chapter 876 Brainstorming
"That's comfortable, but I didn't expect to see you so soon. I thought other nobles were invited, so I was surprised. I didn't expect it to be you, brother."

Obviously, Dress was quite satisfied with Lyon's title, and his attitude when speaking became much more enthusiastic.

"By the way, I haven't seen you in other similar occasions before. I guess you're not from our circle. So, are you the special guest this time?"

"I guess so. I had some cooperation with the church and got an invitation." Lyon answered casually.

"Cooperation? Oh, I see. I didn't expect that you are the farmer!" Dress pondered for a moment, and then immediately guessed Leon's identity.

"I'm just a farmer in a small town, not a farmer," Leon replied modestly. After all, which farmer doesn't have cotton fields and watermelon fields? If I don't have them, then I'm not a farmer.

"That's such a coincidence. I didn't expect you to be the biggest winner of this Melon Sign Order." After confirming Lyon's identity, Dress gave Lyon a bear hug, showing more enthusiasm than before.

"I knew you were something special. After all, Mr. Qi's club hasn't seen any newcomers in a long time. I thought you were a foreigner from another country."

Dress and Leon were having a great conversation, but Sophia and Abigail were not jealous, but felt very happy instead.

After all, Dress is an old man, and it seems that the two of them knew each other before, not to mention that Lyon had called Dress by his title before, which was Duke.

Although the status of the nobles in the political arena is not prominent, each noble is the person in charge of the main industry of the Republic of Fingir. In addition to historical heritage and reputation, the status of the nobles is actually not much worse than that of the political bigwigs who had previously put pressure on the two.

Now that Lyon can have such a good relationship with a duke, it can be said that it has also improved Lyon's social circle and social status.

Regardless of whether there are any practical benefits or not, the vanity alone is satisfied because such an outstanding guy is one's man.

So the two women just ate and watched with their plates on the side, not disturbing the conversation between Leon and Dress.

"Brother, what a coincidence! Is there any mission?" Lyon had been listening to Dress's words, so he was quite sensitive to some of the things revealed in his words.

"Well, I'll leave it as a surprise, you'll know later." Dress patted Leon's shoulder and raised his eyebrows at him. Then he noticed Abigail and Sophia, who were some distance away from them but kept their eyes on Leon, and he clapped his hands immediately.

"I was so busy chatting with you that I almost forgot you had a female companion. I won't disturb you anymore. I'll be leaving first and see you later."

"See you later." Leon nodded, and then Dress left without any reluctance and went to other guests. He seemed to be very familiar with this kind of social occasion and integrated into it in a moment.

"You have another duke friend?" Abigail couldn't help but ask Leon as soon as Dress left.

"Well, we're just acquaintances, not friends." Leon explained, shaking his head. They had only met twice in total, so what Abigail said was too exaggerated.

"But his attitude towards you is not like that of a simple acquaintance," Sophia added.

"They are all shrewd people. They act according to the situation." Lyon did not feel honored by this. Instead, he said to himself calmly, "If we hadn't met before and I didn't show up in the core area today, I guess he wouldn't even look me in the eye if I met him in any other occasion. Believe it or not?" From the previous exchanges, it can be seen that Dress was not as rough as his appearance and words showed. Instead, he had his own sophistication and thoughts. For example, after just a few simple exchanges, he was sure why he was invited to the core area of ​​this ceremony.

There was a reason why he was so enthusiastic when they first met. Although Lyon was a stranger, he appeared in Mr. Qi's club.

It is almost impossible for Dress, who is already a member of the club, to fail to discover that Lyon is not simple.

But that doesn't mean Dress is really that materialistic. It's just that Lyon feels that he is not as approachable as he appeared before.

Otherwise, he would not have ignored Sophia and Abigail who had been with Leon. He only showed that he noticed the existence of the two women at the end and used this as an excuse to end the greetings.

"It's so complicated." Sophia complained with a bitter face. She hadn't noticed this.

Abigail also felt a little confused and didn't understand why the other party behaved so properly. Lyon was still not very fond of him, but when she thought about how smart Lyon was, she was not surprised.

She believed everything Leon said. Even if he was a noble lord, if Leon didn't like it, Abigail thought it was okay.

Dress's appearance was an accident. After that, Lyon and his three companions did not encounter any other guests who came to chat with them. Although some people expressed curiosity about this group of young men and two women, they just smiled and nodded as a greeting, and did not go any further.

Abigail and Sophia were also happy and relaxed. While enjoying the delicious meal, they paid a moment's attention to each new guest, and then retrieved each other's social identities from their memories and databases.

We even had a small competition to see who could recognize the most people, and we had a lot of fun.

Lyon was completely clueless about all this, so he didn't participate, but he wasn't idle either. He went to the buffet table more than ten times and tasted almost every dish.

His gluttonous nature allows him to open his belly and enjoy the pleasure of gluttony.

This is also the reason why most people are curious about Lyon. In such occasions, people will not eat too much, it is more about socializing. Eating too much can easily appear a bit rude.

But if the amount of food eaten is more than ten times that of an ordinary person, that is another matter. Many people who think Leon is unfamiliar think that Leon might be a high-powered warrior like a young adventure master or border walker based on his food intake. The reason for this conclusion is this exaggerated food intake.

Some curious people even found Roche who had been resting with his eyes closed in a corner of the banquet, in order to confirm whether Leon was as they guessed, which made Roche look confused.

However, it was still revealed that Leon was a member of the Explorers Guild, but due to special reasons, he would not go on any missions and was just a figurehead.

This made many people imagine that Leon was a young and powerful warrior, and even the Explorers Guild treated him with courtesy and regarded him as a trump card.
