Chapter 181: You're Really Not Ordinary
Although Don had already raised his expectations for Obury in his heart, he still didn't expect him to give himself such a big surprise.
The shop in front of it is located in the center of the Alinks market area, which is a square street entrance, opposite the square is the Cathedral of the Holy Light, next to the Holy See area, from the civilian residential area and the market area to the Holy Light Cathedral is a must pass through, so the flow of people is very large.
Although the Holy See is a very small area in the outer city, it is inhabited by devout members of the Holy See of Light, and the power of faith has brought a very strong cohesion here, and the official belief of the Alinks, or the Ilrus Empire, is Yebilni, the god of light.
Whether it's a heavily armored paladin, a temple priest or a red-robed priest with a smile on his face, or a black-robed priest who is meticulous in his discipline, they all represent the power of the god of light, Yebirny, and the god of light's recognition of Alink.
The market area was built next to the Holy See district, perhaps because the people who planned the city in the first place wanted people to trade fairly in the presence of the gods.
The location of this shop is undoubtedly one of the best in the market area, occupying more than 1,000 square meters of area on its own, and it is also a four-storey building with a usable area of more than 4,000 square meters, which could be completely transformed into a hypermarket.
It is worth mentioning that the Ferre family is extremely efficient, and in just one night, the workers have removed everything that originally occupied the place, leaving Donn with an empty shell that can be modified at will.
Hilton looked at the familiar and unfamiliar shop. The expression on the face is very complicated.
"So many years have passed. I didn't think I'd ever have the chance to come back here......"
"If you feel emotional, let's talk about it when we have a chance in the future."
Tang En smiled slightly: "Let's take a look at the situation here first." ā
"Okay. My lord, please come here. ā
Although he hadn't been back for many years, Hilton still knew the layout of the place, and took Donn from the first floor to the fourth floor, even checking the basement and the back storeroom.
After reading it, Hilton was relieved, and said with a smile: "It seems that the Ver family has been using this shop for many years, so the shop seems to be very well maintained, and there is basically nothing that needs to be repaired." Just renovate and you can open your business. ā
"Very good? No, no, no, it's too bad. ā
Hearing this, Tang En frowned and groaned beside him.
This shop has a large area, but judging from the previous usage rate of the Ver El family, it did not give full play to its maximum value, and the second half was simply used as a warehouse, while the real warehouse was in a semi-idle state.
In addition, this is a multi-storey building, and since most of the people are lazy, few people will go to the upper floor, and the utilization rate is even lower.
After taking a turn here, Don already knew the general structure of the entire building. And he also has a preliminary idea, but he still needs to continue to think about the specific details.
Don whispered to Hilton, "You can take someone to clean up first." I'll go back to Ellington and talk to Fiona. ā
Hilton bowed slightly.
"Elsa."
Don called Elsa over and said, "You take care of Illya, don't let her run away." ā
"Yes, my lord."
After giving the order, Don went to the basement alone, first anchored a spatial coordinate here, and then communicated the spatial coordinates of the Ellington Lord's Mansion, and then teleported back to the bedroom of the Lord's Mansion.
Alinks is not close to Ellington, this time the teleportation consumption can be much higher than before, after noticing the state of the mana pool, Don pouted and decided to start building the teleportation array after going back.
He had been away from Ellington for half a month, and during this time, Ellington's construction had never stopped, and standing outside the bedroom window, Donn was surprised to find that Ellington outside had a new look and a new face.
The old streets have all disappeared, replaced by neat and uniform blocks, the construction of living quarters has been completed, and dwarves can still be seen coming and going on the streets.
The dwarves and the inhabitants of Ellington seem to be familiar with each other, and they work together perfectly.
Don smiled slightly, it seemed that Brian didn't disappoint him.
As soon as he walked out of the bedroom, Don found the head maid Tina standing at the door of his room, in a daze: "When will he come back, lordship...... Why didn't he take me with him...... Elsa doesn't know how to take care of people, what can the lord do with food, clothing, shelter and transportation......"
Don couldn't laugh or cry, and flicked his finger on her head: "Tina...... Am I that lazy? ā
"Your Excellency, he'...... Lord Huhs!? ā
Tina came back to her senses, covered her forehead and exclaimed, "How, how- when did you come back!?" ā
"I have something to come back for a while, then again, in your eyes, am I the kind of person who comes to stretch out his hand for food and open his mouth?"
Don En said angrily: "Okay, I'm also an adult, okay?" Don't I even know how to eat and clothe? ā
"No, that's not what I meant!"
Tina's face flushed, she lowered her head uneasily, and muttered under her fingers, "IāI just think this kind of thing should be done by me......"
"Okay, okay, isn't this a special situation...... Go get busy, is Fiona in the study? ā
"Yes, Sister Fiona just came back from outside."
"Yes, then you can get busy."
Don patted Tina on the shoulder, smiled and went straight to the study.
"Lord Lord......"
Tina touched her shoulder, and the temperature of the lord seemed to remain on it, just by patting her shoulder, Tina faintly felt soft......
Obviously, the lord doesn't have that kind of thought, how can you think about it cranky, Tina......
Calm down, you have to be calm......
Tina covered her hot face "IāI must be sick, yes, yes, it must be like this......"
When Tina came back to her senses, she was stunned again: "Didn't Lord Lord go to the imperial capital?" After such a long journey, how can you say that you will come back? What the hell is going on? ā
When Donn arrived at the study, Fiona was looking down and writing something.
Hearing the footsteps, Fiona said without raising her head: "If you want money, take the budget and write it to me, if you want the materials, get the application form and find Brian after you write it, and if you want someone, write a plan and go to Alberton......"
Don looked at the busy Fiona with interest, it seemed that she was used to a busy life these days, and she also managed Ellington's people very well, worthy of a merchant family.
Without hearing a response, Fiona raised her head and was just about to speak, when she saw Don standing in front of her, her eyes widened: "Why are you back?" Judging by the time, you should have only arrived in Alinks for a short time. ā
"Well, something happened...... I feel the need to come back and see you and talk to you. ā
Tang En casually picked up the cup on the table and took a sip, the tea brewed from the fragrant leaves of the World Tree was full of vitality and made people feel comfortable.
Seeing this, Fiona's face flushed.
It was her cup, such a personal thing, and the lord actually used it so casually......
It's just rude......
And isn't this an indirect kiss?
Did he not understand this, or was he deliberately teasing himself?
If you don't understand it, you can understand it, if he is deliberately teasing himself, just to see how shy he is...... Hehehehe......
Don was suddenly stunned, as if he saw a layer of black qi appear behind Fiona, blink his eyes and disappear again.
Illusion?
Tang En put down the cup, pondered for a moment, and said, "The matter of the Council of Nobles has been settled, you don't have to worry. ā
"That's right...... That's great! ā
Fiona breathed a sigh of relief, the nobles' council's summons to Don was a heavy mountain on Fiona's heart, and the mountain finally disappeared after hearing him say that it was resolved.
However, Fiona didn't know that in Donn's eyes, they were a bunch of unscrupulous clowns.
"And ...... Well? What does it smell like? ā
Don was stunned for a moment.
Fiona smiled mysteriously and said, "I'll tell you later, you can tell me what else is going on." ā
"Except for this thing...... Elsa is actually from the Foel family. ā
"The Foel Family...... The Foel Family!? ā
Fiona's eyes widened, "That means Uncle Alberton he-"
"That's right," Donn nodded, "Alberton. Verey, Obery. The only child of the Grand Duke of Verelle. ā
Fiona suddenly found that her brain was not enough, and the man she had been commanding a lot lately turned out to be the child of the Grand Duke!?
"Wait! If he was the Duke Lord's child, why did he stay in Ellington!? ā
"I don't know."
Tang En spread his hands: "Maybe Clara's body is too weak, so she wants to find a place with beautiful mountains and rivers to recuperate...... Oh yes, Clara's full name is Clara. Bolaite, is Adrien. Bolaette's daughter. ā
"Adrian. Bolaite ......"
Fiona **: "The Grand Duke of Illus is convicted...... Oh my God...... What kind of monsters are around me......"
Don looked at her with a very strange look in his eyes: "Do you think you are ordinary?" ā
Fiona was silent for a moment and nodded, "Of course." ā
She is an orphan of a down-and-out merchant family, and compared to these people, she can't be more ordinary.
"It's a pity that you're not ordinary......"
Don shrugged, "Aubery made a deal with me and gave me a shop that used to belong to the Golden Rose family. (To be continued.) )
