"How much do you know about the Oxenfurt family, Ms. Milja? I know it is a family that has declined, and it reappeared because Stone Oxenfurt made a fortune again. Apart from that, do you know anything worth visiting?" What did you mention?"

Xia De suddenly asked, and the young maid who was flipping through the ledger records thought for a moment:

"Stone Oxenfurt often asked us to auction antiques, most of which were cultural relics of the perishing Stonewell Kingdom. Besides, he often purchased all kinds of precious porcelain, oil paintings or antiques, and he didn't care about the price at all. , as long as you like it, you will buy it.”

Xia De thought for a moment:

"Is this expenditure consistent with his own financial situation?"

The auction house is obliged to keep secrets for the guests, but fortunately Shade is not an outsider of Cassandra Auction House:

"It doesn't match. With Stone Oxenfurt's consumption situation, even a noble like the Granger family can't afford it."

Miss Mierya said that she obviously knew the local situation very well. Seeing Xia De's thoughtful look, she added new information:

"In addition, more than a year ago, Stone Oxenfurt visited here secretly on a rainy night, and asked to purchase statues or similar items that could fight against evil. I was not in charge of the local area at that time, and these were seen from the records .”

"Did the Resist Evil Auction House take over the business at that time?"

"No."

The maid shook her head slightly:

"This kind of thing that may involve trouble, we will only participate in the visit of acquaintances. Stone Oxenfurt's fortune is not glorious, he is an ordinary person, not even a good person, so another president who received him at that time, Suggested that he go to the Orthodox Church for help, and gave him a silver cross for free—it didn’t really help. There was no follow-up to this incident, and I only saw it from the previous documents after I came to the local area of."

The local Cassandra Auction House, due to business reasons, contacted Stone Oxenfurt more frequently than Golden Dawn, so Miss Mierya knew Stone Oxenfurt better than Miss Lathers.

"Then what do you think Stone Oxenfurt is like?"

"It's definitely not a good guy. And according to rumors, the relationship between him and his wife is very weak, and it's rare to see him bring Hai hoop Oxenfurt into the city on business. In fact, except for the wedding two years ago, everyone in the city Most people haven't seen much of the current mistress of the Oxenfurts."

"Did you know that the Oxenfurt family's family heirloom ring, the Oxenfurt family's 'Kasen Rik third-class battle hero badge, and the glass-embedded sapphire earrings that seal a drop of blood?"

"Sorry, what?"

Miss Milya asked puzzledly, Xia De shook his head

"Do you know about the discovery of gold mines here?"

"There are such rumors. Because of some things, the auction house has conducted in-depth investigations. It seems that Oxenfurt has found a gold mine in the mountains and cooperated with the big shots in Willendell to develop it. But this is just a rumor, and there are some suspicious things in it. The place."

"It's William Anjou."

He frowned suspiciously, and looked at the photo of Oxenfurt's old house in the file in his hand. There seems to be more and more mysteries about Stone Oxenfurt.

Searching for clues in the auction house was not very smooth, so Xia De planned to write down the suspicious records and discuss with Miss Berenice in the afternoon. While watching the auction records, occasionally you will see some very interesting auction items. Needless to say, expensive antiques and oil paintings, Rhodes brand with special rules is also a business that auction houses like to mix.

In addition, Xia De also saw the live cat being auctioned. It was a beautiful kitten named "Rhode Island Desert Shorthair". It had sand-like fur, blue eyes, big ears that looked like a fox, and a big tail. The appearance in the photo looks dull and unintelligent.

The cat was bought by a Marquise who came from Willendale specially at that time, and the transaction price was 230 crowns, which is about 3,000 pounds.

"Look at this cat."

Xia De specially showed this photo to Mia,

Wanted Mia to get a sense of what its expensive kinsman looked like. Unexpectedly, Miya stretched out her claws to grab the photo, showing a rather aggressive look.

By the time all the documents and ledgers were sorted out, it was already half past eleven in the morning. After a busy morning, Xia De stretched himself on the sofa, and Miss Mirja asked Xia De if he wanted to have lunch at the auction house.

"No need, I... Is the auction that Princess Margaret participated in over?"

He asked, so Miss Milya sent someone to inquire, and soon learned that the auction was not over yet, and Prince William Anjou and Princess Margaret Anjou were not in the same box.

Five minutes later, Margaret, who was bored in the box waiting for what she wanted to make her grand finale, heard a knock on the door of the box, and then without her permission, her personal maid directly opened the door .

"Where did you get one... oh, so it's your cat. Good morning, Shade, sit down! Did you come to see me on purpose? After we parted last Sunday, although I listened Miss Nunesse told you about it, but I was worried for a while."

She gave Xia De a gentle hug, and happily pulled Xia De to sit down on the sofa together.

Margaret came here today because of a batch of old stone statues from the Stonemasons Association. It was the work of a stone carving master who passed away last year, and it is very valuable for collection. Margaret wanted to rely on these stone statues to establish a preliminary relationship with the Stonemasons Association and ease their prejudice against the descendants of the Anjou family, so she decided to raise the price a bit:

"The estimated value of the stone statues is 200 crowns, and I plan to raise it to 300 crowns."

"Have you read the information I asked Miss Lasers to give you? The MI6 of De La Rion can also affect the Stonemasons Association. If you need help, please feel free to ask."

"Of course, I won't be polite to you."

She smiled and hugged Xia De's neck. The goods that Her Royal Highness wants will not appear on the stage for a while. Before that, the enthusiastic girl wants to try her lover's enthusiasm:

"I haven't kissed you seriously since I came to Randall Valley."

She said reproachfully, put her hands behind her head, coiled her long blond hair, and kissed her passionately. As a "lover who can only kiss", she and Xia De can only maintain such intimacy at present.

After the special training by the witches, Xia De's kissing skills can finally be said to be proficient. It's a pity that the two had just made contact this time, and there was another knock on the door of the box:

"Your Highness Margaret, His Royal Highness William has something to do with you!"

"Really."

Margaret let go of Xia De quite displeased, and Xia De hurriedly hugged his cat and walked towards the wardrobe—he didn't know why there was a wardrobe in the box of the auction house.

Margaret didn't let her brother in until Shade was well hidden. And Xia De covered his cat's mouth, looked out through the closet door, and his voice was very clear.

"What's matter?"

Marguerite looked very cold, and no girl would look good when disturbed at such a time.

The door was closed, and His Royal Highness the Prince in black formal attire walked in:

"Have you decided on the local mining business that I talked to you last time? Thirty thousand crowns. I will give you 20% dividends for ten years."

"What the **** are you doing? Are you so short of cash lately?"

Margaret frowned slightly:

"Also, do you have any misunderstandings about me? Although I am also doing some small business, how can I get 30,000 kroner in one go? I can lend you some emergency money, but you have to tell Me, what the **** are you doing? Don't put me off with gold mines in the mountains, I don't trust Stone Oxenfurt."

In fact, it was because Shad said that Mr. Oxenfurt was weird, and Margaret had already established a relationship with Rezia. The two princesses cooperated to do some business, so there was no need to ignore the gold mine, which required a large upfront investment. of

industry.

"Oxenfurt is a very capable person."

Prince William shook his head slightly, then scanned the room, and then said in a low voice:

"Let me tell you the truth. The gold mine is indeed a rumor that I let people out. Where is the gold mine in the mountain so easy to find? The news of the gold mine is to cover up people's attention. In fact, people from Oxenfurt A silver ore lode was discovered off the west coast. It is very close to the continental shelf, and a captain who is familiar with sea and land can drive to that island in three days. My people have followed to see it. It is an open-pit rich mine. The estimated reserves are ....."

He made a gesture, but Xia De couldn't see it because of the angle.

"Let me tell you the truth, this time I came to Randall Valley City, I didn't just cut the ribbon for the shipyard. The gold mine in the mountain is a rumor that I let people release, and I will recruit people to develop the offshore open-pit silver mine in the next step. Get ready~www.mtlnovel.com~Margaret, my dear sister, this is real big business, you can't imagine what I found this time. If it wasn't for me, I couldn't eat it all by myself, and you happened to be too Here, I will not give you the opportunity."

"Silver Mine?"

Margaret looked at her brother suspiciously:

"It's a gold mine and a silver mine. Have you ever thought that Oxenfurt might be a liar?"

"do not worry."

His Royal Highness understands his sister's doubts very well:

"My people have personally checked, and the island does exist. I recruited an old professor of geology in Willendale. He set off with his students on a boat in the name of scientific research, which also proved that That piece of silver mine is real. The reserves of that piece of mine are twice as large as that of Wolfe Silver Mine, which is currently the largest in Kaserik! We are going to get rich!"
