Chapter 21 The Bishop's Visit

After a philosophy class, Klein felt like he had not been asleep for three days and three nights, and his mind was full of names and concepts such as skepticism, metaphysics, transcendence, nominalism, realism, social Russellism, existentialism, positivism, etc.

If it weren't for the original body's history and some philosophical knowledge, he even doubted whether he could survive a class intact. This was no better than the non-one-on-one education he had when he was studying at university on Earth. If he couldn't understand it, he could sleep and go to bed or read novels and play with his mobile phone.

"It's not the same as I imagined. Mr. Hamid is funny, cheerful, outgoing, and lectures are not boring. He is neither like a philosophy teacher nor the ideas that the believers of the 'Lord of the Storm' often hold..." Klein raised his hand and rubbed his forehead, turned around and left the door, walked towards the stairs deep in the hall, and returned to the third floor, while his personal servant Richardson followed behind silently.

During this process, he found that the male servants and maids were busy with their own affairs, and none of them was lazy. Only when his employer passed by would he pause and greet him, which seemed very well-educated.

Taneya is still very capable in the arrangement and management of internal affairs of the family... Klein stepped into the aisle on the third floor and walked towards the semi-open room.

Before he entered, Klein saw the butler Walter hanging two double-barrel hunting rifles on the wall, giving the feeling of being rough and heroic inside.

This is a arrangement that every wealthy businessman will have. The "hunting certificate" is very easy to apply for. The double-barrel hunting rifle is not small, enough to allow the male servants and maids at home to deal with infiltrating thieves and even kidnappers.

After hanging up, Walter took two steps back, looked at the shotgun a few times, and took out a gold-shell pocket watch from the inner pocket of the clothes.

Bang!

He pressed his pocket watch and looked at the inside of the lid. His serious and old-fashioned face was obviously softer.

Klein coughed lightly to remind Mr. Butler, then pushed open the half-closed door and walked in.

Walter closed the pocket watch, put it back in place, and saluted sideways:

"Sir, I got 6 'hunting certificates' in total and bought six double-barrel hunting rifles and corresponding shotguns."

Klein was hiding a "death knell" revolver under his armpit, so he didn't care too much about it. He just nodded to show that he knew.

He then smiled gently and asked in a chat:

"When I read the information about the 'Help Family Servants Association' before, I noticed that Walter, you seem to have a wife and a child?"

The butler, or the chief butler, is the employer's deputy and is a confidant who cannot be avoided in many things. Therefore, contacting the butler is something that every employer will do, and Klein does not want to be exceptional.

Moreover, he still remembers that "magic mirror" Arodes said that there will be additional expansion on the butler Mr. Walter.

Walter responded seriously:

"Yes, when I was a servant of the estate at Viscount Connard's house, I had frequent contact with a lady for certain matters and developed feelings for her. Then, under the gaze of the goddess, I entered the palace of marriage and had a daughter who now attended a grammar school and hoped to pass the entrance examination at Beckland University, but this was something I only thought about after two years..."

When talking about his wife and daughter, the serious butler's tone became unconsciously soothing.

At present, all churches are emphasizing the importance of family to fight against the pressures and spiritual problems brought about by the trend of technological progress. The only difference is that different churches have different focus. The night is equal to men and women, and the storm is that men are busy outside. Women manage their families and are supporting angels for the former. Steam is to learn more skills and work more, each with its own expertise and complement each other.

Klein sighed inexplicably and said:

"Ms. Taneya seems to be single?"

"Yes." Walter's expression returned to his seriousness, "In modern society, male servants and maids are still not equal enough. This does not refer to salary. The female butler, the butler, and the butler assistant belong to the same level, both have annual salary of 25 to 50 pounds, but deeper ideas and ideas, which are the part that the church is committed to change, but full of obstruction. After all, the goddess is not the only faith of Ruen."

He paused and added:

"Male servants can get married, and if a maid has a family, it means unemployed or becoming the lowest, temporary employment, and does not require a washing maid who lives in the employer's house. All this can only be reversed until the butler stage, but this is not something that young and inexperienced women can do."

Klein did not continue the topic, nodded gently, and walked towards the seat.

At this time, his eyes swept over the newspaper piled on the coffee table next to him.

With a moving heart, Klein stopped, turned his body sideways and said to Mr. Butler:

"I saw an advertisement in the newspaper about the transfer of shares of Beckland Bike Company. You can consult a professional lawyer and accountant to find out the specific situation.

"Haha, I'm very interested in this industry. If the price is suitable, consider buying it."

At that moment just now, Klein thought of a question, that is, a rich man who came to Bakerland to look for further opportunities with huge sums of money, could not ignore the transfer of shares of Bakerland Bike Company.

Even if "he" cannot see the prospects of this industry, he will normally find someone to know about it, otherwise it will not conform to the personality.

Of course, I can also raise the price and sell the 10% shares for more money... Well, I must remember that it is enough to just raise it, and I can't be too greedy. If I carry it and smash it into my hands, I should cry. It will make all my working capital fall into it and I can't maintain the expenses of daily life... Klein was doing beautiful fantasies while reminding himself in his heart.

"Yes, sir." Walter agreed without asking much.

At 4:35 pm, the personal servant Richardson knocked on the door and entered the room, facing Dawn Dontes, who was reading books leisurely:

"Sir, Mr. Mory Macht, his wife, Ms. Leyana, and Mr. Elektra, the bishop of St. Samuel's Church."

Mory Macht? That member of the lower house? And, why did the bishop of St. Samuel Church come... Klein thought for a while and asked with a smile:

“Is there such etiquette?”

He only attended two etiquette classes for the time being, and knew that visiting each other would not be so direct among this class. He first sent the housekeeper and servant to the door, delivered invitations or agreed on the time for the visit.

Richardson habitually bowed his head:

"have.

"Because when Mr. Butler went to give business cards and gifts, he told everyone that you were at home in the past week.

"In this case, after the neighbor who received the business card inquired about your situation and observed the corresponding details, he could not only send his servant to invite you to visit, but also take a semi-formal visit from 4:00 to 5:00 pm to 5:00 pm in a walk-by-waiting manner. Well, ladies will wear the corresponding walking outfit, otherwise it would be inappropriate, and you can invite them to have afternoon tea."

Crane asked casually as she walked towards the door and let Richardson take off her coat and put it on:

"Then why is there Bishop Elektra?"

This is what he cares most about, and the question just now is just a prelude.

Richardson replied as if he was prepared:

"Bissary Elektra was a guest at the home of Macht in the afternoon. They should have mentioned you during the chat process and decided to come over for a walk."

The movements in his hands were completely unaffected by his words, and he skillfully helped Dawn Dontes to dress up.

Klein said "yes", and waited until Richardson stepped forward and opened the door before walking out.

Soon, he met three visitors in the small living room on the second floor.

Mory Macht is a typical gentleman of Ruen. He is in his forties, with dark hair and brown eyes, deep contours, a high hairline, and a slightly slim face. He once served the army. After he was discharged from the army, he devoted himself to politics. He started from around Beckland and became a member of the Kingdom's Lower House. He is a believer of the Goddess of the Night, a member of the new party, and supports the improvement of the atmospheric environment.

His wife, Leana, came from a barrister family and provided a lot of resources for her husband to go into politics. She is also a believer of the goddess of night.

Electra wore a double-breasted clergy black robe. She looked just forty years old, with deep blue eyes, thin face, and not pretty facial features, but it made people feel inexplicably pleasing to the eyes. She was a bishop that Klein had met when he was throwing money into the dedication box.

Seeing Dawn Dontes enter, Mory Macht stepped forward and chuckled:

"I have been hearing these days that a devout goddess believer has moved on the 160th block. I thought I must visit him. Today I happened to be walking by, so I took the liberty to come to my door. Please forgive us for your misconduct."

Klein smiled and pointed it clockwise on his chest and said:

"At this time, you only need to praise the goddess."

"Praise the goddess!" Elektra and Leana nodded secretly, and then drew a crimson moon on their chest.

After finishing the greetings, Klein invited the three guests to sit down, and the maid promptly delivered black tea and coffee butler Taneya had asked the other party what to drink before.

"Mr. Dontez, I heard that you are a businessman from Disi, and I don't know which industry you were in before?" Mori Macht asked in a chat and joked, "Your surname always reminds me of a lot."

This refers to the surname of the protagonist of a best-selling novel by Emperor Rossell the Great.

Klein laughed and asked humorously:

"Which industry does it belong to to dig a treasure?"

This is also the content of that best-selling novel.

Before the Mr. Congressman and his friends responded, he said that he had compiled the content long ago:

"I used to have my own deposits, but you know, there will always be a day when I dug it, and the cities born from the mines will eventually decline."

He alluded to several resource-based cities in Dees County where he was born, where gangs were rampant and there were many invisible rich people. It would be difficult for ordinary people to investigate Dawn Dontes' situation to be clear without more than half a year.

Bishop Elektra nodded thoughtfully and said:

“So, did you choose to come to Beckland to find new opportunities?
