Chapter 407 (2/2)

There, an old man was sitting expectantly. He had just ordered his menu from a maid.

After a short wait, a maid walked towards an old man with a tray, and then put down the glass in the tray.

But different from Sean's imagination, the cup with a bloody smile is not a glass goblet, but a wooden cup with the same mouth as the cup used to hold wine in general pubs. If this kind of glass is used to hold wheat wine or rum, it is not only because the amount is sufficient, but also because of the material of the wooden glass, it will dilute the bitterness and astringency in wheat wine and rum. However, if it is used to hold wine, it is obviously inappropriate, because according to Sean's understanding of wine, wine is the most afraid of impurities, Even a little impurity will completely change and destroy the taste of wine.

Sean looked at Alfred and Arnold, who looked intoxicated after taking only one sip of this wine. In the end, it can only be attributed to ordinary people. I'm afraid they don't pay as much attention to everything as aristocrats. After all, two silver coins can drink such a large amount of wine, which is really a very valuable thing, even if it will destroy the taste of the wine.

But Sean couldn't drink his bloody smile.

Holding the cup in his hand, Sean got up and walked towards the old man.

The old man with a good reputation obviously didn't notice Sean's coming, or no one in the whole tavern would notice that Sean was coming towards the old man except the waitresses and Tavern owners and those who still worked hard on the stage, because everyone was immersed in his intoxication with wine. It was not until Sean sat in the chair opposite the old man and pushed the bloody smile in his hand in front of the old man that the old man looked up at Sean as if he had been awakened.

The old man should at least be over 50 this year. Perhaps because of the work of designers and architects, the old man is full of silver and has obvious senile spots on his body. But in the old man, Sean still saw many different things. First of all, his eyes were different from the turbid eyes of ordinary old people. The old man's eyes could still make people feel a kind of spicy.

It's not a fierce or other look, but the extreme self-confidence and even conceit formed by the old man's experience.

The second is the old man's hands.

His hands were very stable without the slightest trembling. Even if he raised the glass with one hand, which could obviously feel the weight, the old man still carried it very smoothly.

”Hello, I'm Fran dumoy, a Viscount who is about to become a local aristocrat.” Sean smiled and explained to himself, ”this glass of wine is specially invited because I respect your name, master.”

The old man gave a faint reply, which seemed to disdain Sean's self introduction.

However, just when Sean thought the old man looked down on himself and was going to try to get close to the old man, the old man directly staged a scene that stunned Sean completely.

The old man smiled ”bah” at the cup of bloody smile that Sean pushed in front of him. After spitting in, he leisurely picked up his cup of bloody smile and drank slowly.

Sean's facial muscles twitched fiercely. He didn't expect that the old man would be so shameless and take this glass of wine directly for himself in this way. However, Sean still needed to rely on the old man at this time, so he could only take this scene as not seeing it. He still looked at the old man with a smile, and then said, ”I'm really ashamed to say that. I don't know how to call the master.”

”Well, don't say what you have and what you don't have, just say your purpose.” The old man glanced, ”but I can say in advance that if you want me to help you design architectural drawings, you will not get them until the next year. At present, there are 19 people in front of you, two of them are local nobles, and the other five are also famous nobles. I dare not offend these seven people.”

”The price is not a problem.” Sean continued with a smile.

”If the price is not a problem, it's not your turn.” The old man continued coldly, ”except for these seven people, the twelve are well-known rich businessmen. Some even asked me to design a courtyard with 80000 gold coins, but he can only rank eighth Do you think your price can be higher than this? ”

Hearing the old man's words, Sean had roughly judged what kind of man the old man was.

So he smiled and said confidently, ”I can also give 80000 gold coins, and my requirements are very simple. As long as the master designs a manor design similar to Hastings manor, I will be very satisfied.”

But different from Sean's imagination, the old man showed some vigilance on his face after hearing Sean's words, ”manor You, an honorary nobleman who doesn't even have a territory, actually asked me to help you design a manor design? ”
