Chapter 21 The Bishop's Visit

After a philosophy class, Klein felt like he hadn’t slept for three days and three nights. His mind was full of skepticism, metaphysics, transcendental a posteriori, nominalist realism, social Russellism, existentialism , Positivism and other names and concepts.

If he had not learned some philosophical knowledge when he was studying history, he even doubted whether he would be able to survive a class completely. You can sleep in a daze or play with your mobile phone.

"Mr. Hamid is different from what I imagined. He is funny, hearty, outgoing, and his lectures are not boring. He is neither like a philosophy teacher, nor does he have the concepts that believers of 'The Lord of Storms' often hold..." Klein Raising his hand and rubbing his forehead, he turned and left the door, walked to the stairs deep in the hall, and returned to the third floor all the way, while his personal servant Richardson silently followed behind.

During this process, he found that the servants and maids were all busy with their own affairs, and none of them was lazy. Only when his employer passed by, he would stop and salute and say hello, which seemed very educated.

Tanya is still very capable in arranging and managing the internal affairs of the family... Klein stepped into the aisle on the third floor and walked towards the half-open room.

Before entering, Klein saw the housekeeper, Walter, hanging two double-barreled shotguns on the wall, giving the interior a rough and heroic feel.

This is the arrangement that every wealthy businessman's home will have. The "hunting license" is very easy to apply for, and the power of the double-barreled shotgun is not small, enough for the servants and maids to deal with sneaking thieves or even kidnappers.

After hanging it up, Walter took two steps back, inspected the shotgun, and took out a gold pocket watch from the inside pocket of his clothes.

Snapped!

He opened the pocket watch and looked inside the cover, his serious and rigid face was visibly softened.

Klein coughed lightly to remind Mr. Housekeeper, then pushed open the half-closed door and walked in.

Walter closed the pocket watch, put it back in place, and saluted sideways:

"Sir, a total of 6 'hunting licenses' have been obtained, and six double-barrel shotguns and corresponding shotguns have been bought."

Klein was hiding the "Death Knell" revolver under his arm, so he didn't pay much attention to it. He just nodded his head to show that he knew.

He immediately showed a gentle smile and asked chattingly:

"When I read the materials of the "Helping Domestic Servants Association" before, I noticed that Walter, you seem to have a wife and children?"

The butler, or the chief butler, is the employer's deputy and a confidant who cannot be avoided in many things. Therefore, contacting the butler is something every employer will do, and Klein does not want to be an exception.

Moreover, he still remembered that "Magic Mirror" Arrods said that Mr. Walter, the housekeeper, would have additional developments.

Walter responded solemnly:

"Yes, when I was a servant of the manor at Viscount Connard's house, due to the needs of certain affairs, I had frequent contact with a lady and developed feelings. Then, under the watchful eyes of the goddess, I entered the palace of marriage. She has a daughter, she is now studying in a grammar school, and hopes to pass the entrance examination of Backlund University, but this is something that will be considered after two years..."

When referring to his wife and daughter, the unsmiling housekeeper's tone unconsciously became soothing.

——At present, all churches are emphasizing the importance of the family in order to combat the life pressure and spiritual problems brought about by the trend of technological progress. The only difference is that different churches have different emphases. The dark night is the equality of men and women, family mutual assistance, Storm means that men are busy outside, women take care of the family, and act as the supporting angels of the former. Steam means that they learn more skills and work more, each has its own strengths and complements each other.

Klein was inexplicably moved and said instead:

"Ms. Tanea seems to be still single?"

"Yes." Walter's expression returned to seriousness, "In modern society, male servants and maids are still not equal enough. This does not refer to salary. Female housekeepers belong to the same level as butlers and butler assistants. They all have 25 Up to £50 annual salary,

It is a deeper concept and idea, which is the part of the church that is committed to change, but is full of obstacles. After all, the goddess is not Ruen's only belief. "

He paused and added:

"Man servants can get married, but if a maid has a family, it means that she will be unemployed or become the lowest, temporarily employed, laundry maid who doesn't need to live in the employer's house. All this can only be reversed at the housekeeper stage, but this Not for young, inexperienced ladies."

Klein did not continue this topic, nodded slightly, and walked towards the easy chair.

At this time, his eyes glanced at the newspapers piled up on the coffee table next to him.

With a heartbeat, Klein stopped, turned his body sideways, and said to Mr. Steward:

"I saw an advertisement in the newspaper about the transfer of shares in the Backlund Bicycle Company, you should consult a professional lawyer and accountant to find out the specific situation.

"Hehe, I am very interested in this industry. If the price is right, I will consider buying it."

At that moment just now, Klein thought of a problem, that is, a rich man who brought a huge sum of money to Backlund looking for further opportunities, it is impossible not to pay attention to the transfer of shares in Backlund Bicycle Company.

Even if "he" can't see the prospect of this industry, he will usually find someone to find out, otherwise it is not in line with the personality.

Of course, you can also raise the price by the way, so that the 10% shares can be sold for more money... Well, you must remember, just raise it, don't be too greedy, if you raise it and hit your hand, you should cry, That would sink all my working capital, making me unable to maintain my daily living expenses... Klein warned himself a few words while dreaming beautifully.

"Yes, sir." Walter agreed directly without asking any further questions.

At 4:35 p.m., the valet Richardson knocked on the door and entered the room, and said to Dawn Dantès who was reading a book leisurely:

"Sir, Mr. Maury Macht and his wife, Ms. Liana, and Mr. Electra, the bishop of St. Samuel's Church, are here to visit."

Maury Macht? That MP? Also, why is the bishop of St. Samuel Church here too... Klein thought for a while and asked with a smile:

"Is there such etiquette?"

He has only taken two etiquette classes for the time being, and he knows that among this class, visits to each other will not be so direct. They always send housekeepers and servants to the door first, deliver invitations or arrange a time for visiting.

Richardson habitually bowed his head and said:

"Have.

"Because Mr. Steward told the neighbors that you have been at home in the afternoons of the last week when he sent business cards and gifts.

"In this case, the neighbor who received the business card can inquire about your situation and observe the corresponding details. Not only can he send his servant to invite you to be a guest, but he can also go out between 4:00 and 5:00 p.m. A walk-by gesture, a semi-formal call at the door, well, the ladies will wear the appropriate walking attire, otherwise it's inappropriate, and you can treat them to afternoon tea."

As Klein walked towards the door, he let Richardson take off his coat and put it on for himself, and asked casually:

"Then why is there Bishop Elektra?"

This is what he cares most about. The question just now is just a foreshadowing.

Richardson replied as if prepared:

"Bishop Elektra was a guest at Councilor Macht's house in the afternoon. They probably mentioned you during their chat, and decided to come over for a walk."

The movements of his hands were completely unaffected by his words, and he expertly helped Dwayne Dantès tidy up his clothes.

Klein let out a "hmm" and waited until Richardson stepped forward to open the door before walking out.

Soon, he saw three visitors in the small living room on the second floor.

Morrie Macht is a typical Loen gentleman. He is in his forties, with black hair and brown eyes. He has a deep profile, a high hairline, and a slightly slender face. He once served in the army and joined politics after retiring from the army. Starting in Germany, he became a member of the House of Commons of the Kingdom all the way. He is a believer in the goddess of the night, a member of the new party, and supports the improvement of the atmospheric environment.

His wife, Liana, was born in a family of barristers and provided her husband with a lot of resources for his career in politics. She is also a believer of the Evernight Goddess.

Elektra was wearing a double-breasted clergyman's black robe, and she looked about forty years old. She had deep blue eyes, a thin face, and her facial features were not good-looking, but they felt inexplicably pleasing to the eye. It was Klein who gave the offering to the offering box A bishop I met when I dropped the money.

Seeing Dwayne Dantès enter, Maury Macht took two steps forward, chuckled and said:

"I have been hearing for the past few days that a devout goddess believer has moved to No. 160 in the block. I thought I must pay a visit. I just passed by for a walk today, so I took the liberty to come to the door. Please forgive our rudeness."

Klein smiled, tapped his chest clockwise four times and said:

"At this time, you only need to praise the goddess."

"Praise the goddess!" Elektra and Liana nodded secretly, and then drew a crimson moon on their chests.

After exchanging greetings, Klein asked the three guests to sit down, and the maid served black tea and coffee in a timely manner—the housekeeper Tanya had already asked what they wanted to drink.

"Mr. Dantès, I heard that you are a businessman from Dixie. I don't know what industry you were in before?" Maury Macht asked chattingly, and made a joke, "Your surname always reminds me of to a lot."

This refers to the surname of the main character in a best-selling book by Emperor Roselle.

Klein laughed and asked humorously:

"Which industry does digging treasure belong to?"

This is also the best-selling content of that book.

Before waiting for Mr. Representatives to respond, he talked about the content he had compiled long ago:

"I used to have my own mines, but you know, there will always be a day when the mines are finished, and the cities born from the mines will eventually decline."

He alluded to the resource-based cities where he was born in Disey County. In those places, gangsters were rampant and there were many invisible rich people. It would be difficult for ordinary people to investigate the situation of Dawn Dantès without more than half a year.

Bishop Elektra nodded thoughtfully and said:

"So, you chose to come to Backlund to find new opportunities?

"I don't know who led you into the church?"
