In Falk's room.
"Cheng, do you really not plan to stay here for a while?"
"Yes." Su Cheng nodded, "I still have a lot of things to do, so I will set off back to the North soon."
At this time, Su Cheng and Alan were chatting and reminiscing with Falk in Falk's room.
After Kailuoer briefly reminisced with Falk just now, he took Alyssa, who had nothing to do and was too idle, to wander around Falk's mansion and Aiwen City.
However, although there were Alan and Su Cheng in the room, only Su Cheng was chatting and reminiscing with Falk. Alan was too busy nibbling on the snacks on the table in front of him to have time. Chat with Falk.
"Are you leaving right away..." Falk murmured with some disappointment.
"Yeah." Su Cheng smiled bitterly, "I'm pretty busy right now...Things that urgently need me to solve quickly are coming one after another..."
"No matter how busy you are, you can't forget to take a rest." Falk reminded Su Cheng, "Don't forget your life-long event. Cheng, you're not married yet, right?"
"Uh... not yet..."
"You are already 19 years old this year, right?" Falk's tone was full of helplessness, "Many people at your age already have children."
"Yes, brother."
At this moment, Alan, who had been nibbling snacks just now, suddenly spoke up for Falk:
"Alan wants to be an aunt."
"You want to be an aunt, and I also want to be an uncle." Su Cheng replied without thinking.
"Cheng, don't you have two good girls by your side?"
After saying that, Falk rushed out the door and pursed his lips.
"Kaylor and the blond girl, the blond girl is called Alyssa, right? Although I don't know her, I feel that she is also a good girl. With such two good girls by your side, you don't want to You have to choose one from among them, or——"
Speaking of this, Falk showed an intriguing smile.
"How about marrying both of them?"
"Keroll and Alyssa..." Su Cheng scratched his head, "I have indeed considered similar issues like marriage... but..."
After saying that, Su Cheng sighed heavily.
"Important military affairs come one after another, and I have no time to think about this issue..."
After that, Su Cheng added silently in his heart:
——After the construction of the Michael Knights has come to an end for the time being, the Salomanda Operation will come... After the Salomanda Operation is over, I really don’t know what will happen... If we wait until the Salomanda Operation is over After that, if I can get some free time, I will seriously consider getting married...
Su Cheng didn't want to stay on this topic for too long, so he changed the subject and planned to lead to a new topic:
"By the way, Mr. Falk, how has your business been in the past two years? Has it improved?"
The reason why Falk fired Su Cheng and others two years ago was because his business had deteriorated and he could not afford the food, drink and litter of so many "hosts", so he dismissed Su Cheng and Alan. Many of my “hosts” have resigned.
"Huh? My business for the past two years?"
After hearing Su Cheng's question, Falk smiled bitterly.
"It's getting a little better, but not much."
After saying that, Falk sighed, and then continued:
"The Wren family is so powerful... They are truly one of the top wealthy businessmen in our empire. There is no way we can compete with them."
"The Wren family?" After hearing this word, Su Cheng's expression immediately changed.
The originally calm face now had a hint of disgust and hatred.
Alan, who had been nibbling snacks, immediately stopped chewing the food after hearing the term "Ren Family".
But it only stopped for a few seconds. After a short pause, Alan continued to chew the food in his mouth, his expression as usual.
Falk did not notice anything strange about Su Cheng and Alan at this time, but continued to talk to himself:
"The Wren family has begun to enter the jewelry market in recent years. As one of the most powerful businessmen in the empire, with its huge connections and abundant funds, it has rapidly expanded in the jewelry market."
"It is precisely because of the Lane family's preoccupation with the jewelry market that my business has continued to suffer over the years, and it has finally recovered a little recently."
Falk is mainly engaged in the jewelry business. He is a businessman who is neither too powerful nor too weak in the jewelry market.
Compared with the Renn family, they are as different as clouds and mud.
With Falk's small power, he was simply unable to compete with a behemoth like the Wren family.
It is not surprising that the market has been squeezed and seized.
Falk didn't realize that while he was telling the story of the Wren family's entry into the jewelry market over the years, which had caused damage to his business, Su Cheng, who was sitting in front of him, had a frightening coldness in his eyes.
The hands on his legs were quietly clenched.
…
…
Just when Su Cheng was reminiscing with Falk——
Britannia Empire, northern border, on an unknown rural road.
Channels of warm sunshine poured down from the sky, splashing on a winding path extending from the green hills.
This path is not paved with bricks and stones like the straight road, it is just made of loess.
It is far away from the hustle and bustle of the city, but it is also a good place for traveling or seclusion.
On this rural road, a cargo carriage was heading north in a hurry.
The driver was an old man. He seemed to know how to drive and control a horse, and his hand holding the reins did not tremble at all.
There was no cargo in the carriage of this freight carriage.
The only thing on display was a young girl.
This girl has golden pupils and short black hair. There are three side braids on the left and right sides of the smooth black hair.
She is a girl with a very quiet temperament, her golden eyes are bright and shining like cold stars in the dark night.
She was not sleeping or resting, she was just lying on the bed of the car, looking at the blue sky, not knowing what she was thinking.
At this moment, the carriage suddenly stopped.
Then, the old man driving the car turned his head and said respectfully to the girl lying on the bed of the car:
"Miss Vivian, I'm sorry. I can only send it here."
"Ah, it's okay." Vivian sat up, "I'd like to thank you for giving me a ride in the carriage. Thank you very much."
"Where is that?" The old man smiled and waved his hand, "If I want to thank you, I would also like to thank you. If you hadn't helped me collect debts from my neighbor, I really don't know when I would be able to get back from there. Damn neighbor, let’s collect the debt.”
"I just used my strengths and did what I could."
Vivian said as she jumped off the carriage.
Jingle bell, jingle bell...
When she jumped off the carriage, a very clear bell sounded from Vivian's body.
It was the two bells hanging around her waist that were ringing.
After jumping off the carriage, Vivian adjusted the large cloak wrapped around her body.
After adjusting her gray cloak, Vivian pulled up the hood.
"Thank you for sending me here. I will walk the rest of the way by myself."
"Well, see you again by chance! I wish you a safe journey! Arrive at Avalon Fortress as soon as possible and meet your sister!"
"Well, see you later."
After saying that, Vivian pulled down her hood further, then walked towards the north with both feet.
Jingle bell, jingle bell...
The bell on his waist made a crisp sound and gradually faded away. ntent
