Hotel on the mountain

Chapter 29 Raya Manor and Warehouse in Early October 1800

Carter, who hurriedly left Le Havre, took the fastest carriage and switched to the best horses at the inn. He returned to the dream city in just a few days, but he did not enter the city because he went directly to the city outside the city. The noble and elegant Raya Manor sped away.

Driving through the avenue between endless lawns, the carriage stopped anxiously in front of the gate of the manor castle. The servants along the way saw the butler walking in a hurry and could only politely say "Hello, Mr. Carter" and continue to work on their hands. chores. Carter passed through the living room where portraits of previous dukes were displayed and entered the duke's study.

Duke Yisele Raya always liked to dim the light in the room when he was working, so that Butler Carter could not see clearly the Duke's face in the dark light at this time, but he replied with a very respectful tone. :"master……"

"Oh, Carter, you're back? How is Le Havre?" The figure behind the desk did not raise his head, he was still reading the official document.

"Master, I saw the gift that Master Jetro brought back." In front of the Duke, Butler Carter's voice was calm and mellow.

"Well, yes, he wrote and said that he would send me something, but I feel that he just wanted me to help him get some information about the Hill family." The figure on the desk seemed to pick up a pen and mark the official document. A few times.

"With all due respect, sir, what Master Jetro sent back this time is a bit unusual." Carter took out a box from his arms. He opened the box, revealing two holy and round pearls inside. . He walked to the desk step by step, placed the box on the table and returned to its original position.

At this time, Yi Xieli raised his head slightly, stretched out his hand to put the box in front of himself, and smiled: "The size of the pearl is very large, similar to the 'Pearl of the Kingdom' worn by Princess Selena, and the color is even better. One thing, if his mother was still alive, she would definitely like it in my room. After all, this is the first time that Jetro did not buy it with family money. "

"Master, what I want to say is..." Carter paused, and his broad face was a little rosy due to emotion. Finally, he said in a calm tone, "For a pearl of this quality, Master Jetro at least sends it to you." Thousands of them came back..."

At this time, the atmosphere in the room suddenly fell silent. The figure hidden behind the desk slowly straightened his back, and the light finally captured his image - he was handsome and noble, and his beautiful wavy blond hair completely highlighted his Fengya, his eyes with light blue pupils narrowed slightly, he smoothed the mustache on his lips and remained silent.

Carter blinked his eyes, which were smaller due to his eyebrows, and continued: "It's all placed in the dock warehouse in Le Havre. I suggest sending our guards to transport this batch of goods."

Esheli Raya seemed to have made a decision. He then leaned on the desk and picked up a new official document for review. He gave instructions: "Relax, Carter, too many actions will only attract too much attention. But it is easy to make mistakes if you are completely lax, so leave this matter to Pucilla, she said that she needs a grant recently, and it is up to her to get any benefits. "

"What about Master Polanyi?"

"Well, it depends on how sister Pucilla feels."

Carter understood that the Duke had made a decision, so he planned to pass the news to the eldest lady, Puscila Raya. But when he was about to go out, the Duke behind the desk stopped him again and said hesitantly: "Wait a moment, I think there is something that can test Bolanyi. Just wait a moment, I will write him a letter, and then you Bring a box of 'local specialties' sent by Jetro and give them to Bolani."

"Okay, sir."

Steven has been in the warehouse for four days. He always feels that at some moment the iron door of the warehouse will be opened, and he will be shot to death by the intruder, and finally die with this wealth worth billions.

So when the iron door of the warehouse was really opened with great force, Steven screamed. He rolled off the box and hid behind the pile of pearls, looking in the direction of the door with some eyesight. Because the sunlight at the iron gate was so dazzling, there were two or three people standing in the middle of the sunlight who could not be clearly seen clearly. They could only be vaguely distinguished as two women and a man. The figure in the middle had a slender silhouette, as if wearing A luxurious and slim-fitting skirt, and the woman holding an umbrella on the right is relatively shorter. What surprised Steven the most was the man on the left. He was ridiculously tall and stood there like a wall, giving people a great sense of oppression.

"Eva, are you sure this is the warehouse?"

"Warehouse No. 91 is not registered. Theoretically, No. 91 does not exist. It is the family's private warehouse. It is here, that's right."

The woman standing in the middle of the sun asking the question took two steps forward and shouted into the warehouse: "Captain Steven, Captain Steven? Are you here?"

She had a voice as beautiful as a nightingale, and Steven couldn't help but emerge from behind the pile of pearls where he was hiding, and responded loudly: "I'm here! Are you?"

"Pucilla. Pucilla Raya."

The woman walked into the dark warehouse under the sunlight at the iron gate. Steven couldn't help but be stunned. He seemed to have seen a queen or a goddess, because the former's beautiful eyes were very bright, blooming like sapphires. The light is full of gentleness and solemnity. And when Priscilla spoke, her lower lip was slightly more protruding than her upper lip, which made her look particularly charming when she smiled, and extremely arrogant when she was calm.

Priscilla waved her long skirt, interrupted Steven's confusion, and asked: "Captain Steven, I am here to handle this batch of goods. You can go home and rest. Thank you Thanks to the Raya family, there is no need to worry about the next thing. I wish you a happy holiday.”

"Well, okay, okay." No matter how beautiful the woman is, what Steven misses more now is his own bed. So he quickly passed by Pucilla, but at the moment he passed by, he was seduced by the latter's long golden hair full of fragrance. The brilliant golden hair perfectly surrounded the face, and towards him Steven no longer dared to look at her face. He only knew that as long as he took one more look, he would lose his pursuit of all the women in his life.

So when Priscilla turned her face and gave him a questioning expression, Steven covered his heart and escaped from the warehouse with heavy breathing. He only felt that facing Priscilla's face, even the most A strict sculptor would only wish that this holy face could be more rosy, and that the delicate bridge of the nose could be slimmer.

Pucilla walked towards the cargo box full of pearls, stretched out her hand and turned over all the pearls one by one. The white treasures on the ground were like stars falling, but Pucilla was expressionless. His expression was just pouring out box after box of pearls. In the end, she had become an "angel" standing on the white earth, but she still did not show any joyful thoughts for these wealth. Her eyes under the long eyelashes were seen looking back and forth among the pearls. Finally, , she leaned over and picked out eight of the finest pearls from the white earth.

"Eva, Wall-E, come here." Pucilla shouted to the two attendants standing at the door, "Eva, pack these eight pearls and prepare to contact Princess Selena and tell her that I Here are eight pearls that match her 'Kingdom Pearl'. Ask her if she wants it. If not, sell it to...well, sell it to Miss Feifei, who she hates the most. You can take the rest. All my pearls will disappear, please.”

This was wealth that could overwhelm the pearl market, but the tall and strong man stepped on it without any hesitation or doubt. And Puscilla Raya always seems to be racing against time, coming in a hurry and leaving in a hurry.
