Chapter 279 City Garden Theater(1/2)
Everyone settled down at the winery.
Chen Lun looked at the empty and dusty winery, and immediately asked Connie to go to the relevant agency to hire dozens of servants to clean and organize the manor.
Because it was inconvenient to bring too many people with him when he left Amber City, Chen Lun personally dismissed the elite killers of the circus. A considerable number of other members of the Murder Club have their own extraordinary powers and belong to the mutual aid association.
accepted these people.
It can be regarded as sending a favor.
"Goloff, Barton and Morey, the three of you go out to find out the information about Peacock City, and try to keep a low profile... In addition, I need to know who is the most powerful noble in the local area, as well as industry information about the opera house.
."
Chen Lun ordered the three of them.
"Yes, Mr. Leader."
The three of them, Golov, patted their chests respectfully and saluted, then turned around and strode away.
Chen Lun rubbed his chin and began to think deeply.
"Now that the foothold has been settled, the top priority is to collect enough information to plan the next step."
While he was thinking about things, he looked at this new home.
In order to commemorate the former manor, Chen Lun named the winery after "Jack".
The main villa in New Jack Manor is quite large. Although it is also a four-story structure, the interior space is much more spacious than the previous villa. It can be roughly divided into three major areas, including a work area for storing books and collections, and a rest and entertainment area.
area, and living area.
Most of the original furniture and worthless collections were not removed, and even most of the books were left behind.
This was an unexpected surprise for Chen Lun.
Saved another amount of money.
And among these books, you might even find some mysterious books.
Floyin went to the back kitchen area and tidied it up herself, while Noah and Maggie went upstairs to choose their own rooms, studios and laboratories.
Everyone is busy working, but Chen Lun, the leader, is inspecting his territory like an idle nobleman.
Two days passed quietly.
The manor has been completely renewed, and everyone has begun to adapt to the new environment.
To celebrate the "move-in", Fuluoyin cooked a big meal for everyone.
Everyone enjoyed this meal very comfortably and happily. Perhaps as Fuluoyin said, when emotions are brought into cooking, the dishes produced will also be contaminated with such emotions.
It can be seen that Fuluoyin is in a good mood.
That night.
The three Golovs returned again, and this time, they seemed to have gained something.
In Chen Lun's spacious and exquisite study.
Old-fashioned incandescent lamps are hung on the wall, giving the entire study a hazy yellow feel, and the atmosphere is also somewhat secretive, like a secret meeting.
The three of them sat at the round coffee table and reported the information they had gathered to the group leader one by one.
"Peacock City is located on the east coast of the empire. Its geographical location is relatively remote. The local parliament is relatively weak and has little say... This place is mainly taken over by three parties. One is the nobles headed by the "Harrington" family.
The second is the wealthy businessmen headed by the "Moses Voyage" company, and the third is the gang organization "Blue Sail"."
Golov smoked a cigarette and recounted in detail.
Chen Lun nodded.
As a port city, it is not surprising that the shipping company is so powerful, and the Blue Sail gang is also composed of dock workers. However, on the surface, it is a protector of the crew, trackers and low-level workers, but in fact it is just another way for them to exploit their own people.
It's just a form.
"Although the title inherited by the Harrington family is only Viscount and their history is not long, they are the most influential nobles in Peacock City."
Golov flicked the ashes from his cigarette and said softly.
"Harrington..."
Chen Lun chewed on the name.
The reason why he wanted to inquire about the nobles with the strongest say was because one of the three opportunities in Peacock City seemed to be hidden in a certain noble family.
Chen Lun wanted to use this "leader" to find opportunities for himself.
At this time, Barton continued to say:
"Mr. Leader (this chapter is not finished yet!)
, Regarding the extraordinary power in Peacock City, the biggest source of doubt is the official asylum, the Madman School and the Historical and Ritual Association. Among them, the Madman School, as the True God Church of the magic path, is more keen on researching knowledge and does not like to interfere too much.
secular affairs, and the relationship between the asylum and the Historical and Ritual Society is not very good..."
Chen Lun listened silently and took a sip of black tea.
This is a very standard extraordinary system of checks and balances. The administrative areas of the cities are basically based on the official shelter, plus two orthodox churches.
"Oh, by the way, it is worth mentioning that Omto Academy was founded with the support of the Madman School behind the scenes, so that it later gradually developed into a college district centered on this university."
Patton added.
Chen Lun wrote down the news and sighed secretly.
It is really because the memory of the previous life is too long, and I did not have a deep understanding of this city at that time, so now I still need to re-establish a framework in my mind.
Fortunately, the clues about the three opportunities are relatively clear.
"Mr. Leader, the news I found here is that currently in Peacock City, excluding those small family theaters and mobile stages, there are three largest opera houses... namely the "Golden Rum" Grand Theater and the "Tower"
Ertal" Opera House and "City Garden" Grand Theater."
Morey held a small notebook in his hand and said to Chen Lun.
He turned a page and added:
"Among the three major theaters, Golden Rum is the most popular and the most popular and influential. The current all-day play "The Rose and the Gallows" is their latest signature. Both the playwright and the actors are of first-class quality.
.
Tartar ranks lower, but its focus is more on pure opera and concert situations. Most of the city's dignitaries will basically go there to watch it.
City Garden is at the bottom. They have no outstanding features or advantages. Some time ago, the main star actor was bought by a nobleman for a large sum of money. What is left is only some third-rate acrobatics, animal taming and lame magic performances, and their reputation is increasingly ruined."
Chen Lun pondered.
The three people in front of them looked at each other and seemed to have guessed what the leader was planning to do.
The team leader had told them before that when they came to Peacock City this time, the team members would mainly focus on "high-level commissions", which were commissions involving mysterious events that came from the Silver Dragon Chamber of Commerce's messenger.
Those clients are often powerful, but because they encounter extraordinary events in the mysterious realm and it is not convenient for the shelter or the church to know about them, they have to turn to the Silver Dragon Chamber of Commerce for help.
The Chamber of Commerce will screen these commissions and then distribute them to the circus, and then the cadres will be responsible for solving them.
While earning high rewards, you can also complete mysterious accumulation.
Because of the relationship between Chen Lun and Rosa, the status of the circus in the Silver Dragon Chamber of Commerce has increased, and naturally it can get the best treatment... This is an extremely rare "mission platform".
It is also an opportunity for members to "quickly upgrade".
But when the circus lives in Peacock City, it also needs a clear identity to cover up. It's okay if it's short-term, but it's easy to attract unnecessary attention if it's long-term.
"As for this "City Garden" Grand Theater, I will personally discuss with their boss to let "Jack Circus" move in and become the theater's performance team..."
Chen Lun rubbed his chin and said.
When the three Golovs heard this, they secretly thought that this was indeed the case.
But their expressions were a little strange.
After all, although the name of the team is "Circus", no one knows how to perform. They are all extraordinary people. Whether they are fighting or solving incidents, there is no pressure, but they are somewhat unfamiliar with the business when they really do their "old business"
.
"Don't worry, it's just for show, I don't want you to really delve into this..."
Chen Lun smiled.
The three of them couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Chen Lun looked at the antique wall clock on the wall again, and then said to the three of them:
"Okay, let's do this for now... You have worked hard these past two days, so go back to your room and rest first."
"Yes, Mr. Leader."
Golov and others bowed respectfully and left.
Chen Lun watched the door being closed and stood up and stretched.
(This chapter is not finished yet!)
"As the leader of the team, you have to do something..."
To be continued...
