The Werner family is the most powerful noble in District 011. Naturally, no family will be absent from the banquet they hold. In order to highlight the importance of this party, the manor held is also an important manor of the Werner family and is very representative.
.
Xu Huo contacted Mrs. Lily in advance. After the other party learned that he had been invited to attend the New Year's Eve party, she changed her previous enthusiastic attitude and politely and reservedly declined the offer to go together, and told him that those who were qualified to attend the party were already considered
Officially registered in District 011, he is no longer a marginalized person. In the future, he can share the benefits of District 011 and contribute when District 011 encounters difficulties.
As for entering the venue, Mrs. Lily advised him not to go too early, because his title was not high, and although he was powerful and an upstart, he still had to follow the aristocratic tradition of District 011. At least these formal etiquettes could not go wrong.
"The Werner family's butler will notify you on site when the time comes, so that the guests will not be embarrassed."
Xu Huo thanked her and entrusted Angel to deliver a small box of gems to Mrs. Lily.
After Xiao Yuan and Tan Qi left, An Qier's tutoring class basically came to an end. Now she is back to being unemployed, and she is also happy to help Xu Huo run errands and keep in touch with Mrs. Lily.
When she learned that Xu Huo had received an invitation from the Werner family, she sincerely congratulated Xu Huo and brought snacks she made as a congratulatory gift.
Time soon came to the day of the party. Xu Huo put on a newly made dress and drove alone to the Werner family's manor.
There were a lot of guests here today. Out of respect for the Werner family, everyone stopped flying after entering the manor. Instead, they walked on the ground and lined up to go to a villa that was specially designed to entertain guests. This is just a transit station.
Most of the cars are stored here. Only a few nobles with higher status can drive directly to the main building. Others can only enter under the arrangement of the butler.
After the car was driven away by the servant, Xu Huo entered the villa and waited.
There were already many people in the rest area of the villa, and it was no surprise that I saw some familiar faces. In addition to people who often attended various banquets, there was also Kag Huerta on the second floor who was walking with Assis Werner.
A relatively recent family successor.
The last time they met was at a banquet. It just so happened that Jin Feixue led the Chiyin Knights to avenge Hugo and bring trouble in District 011. At that time, Xu Huo was still a D-level player, and as early as that of Rongxin Group
When they were on the ship, Assis Werner and Karg Huerta were already A-level players.
The servant brought tea and asked Xu Huo to sit down. When he noticed the eyes from upstairs, he picked up the teacup and signaled from a distance.
The player level of Kag Huerta is very high, but he is the junior in the family. Before the elders in the family have finished speaking, it will not be his turn to appear, so he can only wait here.
However, there are also barriers between the second floor and the first floor. The people upstairs obviously have their own circle and do not communicate much with each other. On the contrary, the people downstairs are keen on making friends and have been restrained and warm from the moment they entered.
Mrs. Lily was also among them, but she did not come forward to talk to Xu Huo. She just nodded from a distance and went to talk to other ladies.
"Mr. Xu." A young nobleman came over to greet Xu Huo, "We met last time at Mrs. Lily's banquet."
This aristocratic child is not very old but is already the leader of the family. However, he is not a player. There is someone else in the family who assumes the role of a player, but he is not very outstanding.
"Just call me Roy." Roy Clemens said with a smile.
The two socialized normally, chatting about the previous charity gala. The Clemens family also held a charity gala. Xu Huo was complimentary and polite, and the atmosphere was quite good. After a while, other people joined in, and they gradually integrated into the ordinary people.
Noble socializing.
Soon Werner's housekeeper began to come over to invite people, first the people on the second floor, and then the first floor.
Sitting in Werner's special car, he walked around half of the manor before finally arriving at the main building. The pure white building was illuminated by bright lights, and the golden color made the whole place look mysterious and hazy, as if one step forward was the dream.
Power and wealth, and those who climbed the front steps seemed more proud as they were closer to the building.
Everything behind the gate is the core of this prosperous district. The rise and fall of 011 is related to the people at this door. They symbolize the highest power and also represent the fate of this district for hundreds of years to come.
This is not an ordinary cocktail party, but a very formal meeting. Even if it is for the nobles to get to know each other, it is also a summary of the old year and the outlook for the new year. Therefore, there are several rows of long tables in the middle of the huge banquet hall.
The table in the middle is obviously prepared for members of the core aristocratic families. The further to the side, the weaker the family's strength.
As the door opposite the banquet hall opened, everyone gradually became quiet and paid attention to the door.
The first to come out were the important players of the Werner family. On both sides of them were the patriarch of the Werner family and the biological father of Asis Werner, a former player who quit the game to take care of his family business.
The wise man, Assis Werner and other brothers and sisters followed behind, and nearly twenty people walked out one after another.
Not all of these twenty capable Werner young people can go to the main table. Their positions are on two small tables scattered behind the main table, separated from other nobles.
Everyone stood at their seats. Xu Huo joined the penultimate table on the right, raised his glass with the others, and drank it all in one gulp after Mr. Werner finished his congratulatory speech.
Next came the formal banquet. The Werner family took out rare ingredients purchased from other districts and used them as a year-end benefit for all nobles to enjoy. In addition, anyone who could sit in the seat, everyone's
There is a gift package under the chair. I heard that it is the business dividend of the nobles. Top nobles like Werner will give some soup to the nobles below after eating meat.
"It's the first time you attend this banquet and you may get the shares issued by the Werner family." Roy Clemens lowered his voice and said: "Pure shares are Werner's business all over District 011. Every quarter, according to the
Dividends on stock settlement will be calculated separately at the end of the year. If you are lucky, you may get mining shares, which is very generous."
That is to say, after the nobles in District 011 mastered most of the resources, they cut these resources into small pieces and distributed them to the small nobles below. The more powerful they were, the bigger their shares were. They also followed an upward promotion system, that is, whoever is strong enough
, whoever can be the one to share the cake, the huge aristocratic system and only one super player also ensure the continuation of this right.
When the banquet was over, Patriarch Werner led the important family leaders out and handed over the next activities to Werner's family members:
"Everyone, we have prepared a special gift tonight." ()
