Chapter 93: Cant you be a member of the upper class if you dont have money?

What kind of party requires two thousand pounds to attend? Does this guy know how huge this money is? Could it be that he has long wanted to move his detective agency to Westminster, so he borrowed this

Is there an opportunity to cheat me out of my money?

Ringer was a little suspicious.

However, he was a well-educated person and would not speak out his doubts casually. He just replied with a slightly stiff reply: "I don't have that much money, and I don't think it takes that much money to attend this party."

In fact, it should not be difficult to discuss the money with Her Majesty the Countess. As the founder of the Bloodfang Valenhild family, she was so poor that she only had money left. But as Ringer said, he did not think that participating

A party requires so much money, even if this is Renwhiting.

"No, no, no, Mr. Ringer, I think you must have misunderstood something."

Miss Gloria smiled softly: "Although I am not very willing to talk about money matters and associate its vulgar value with my noble personality, in order to dispel your doubts, let me do the math for you.

Let’s write down the account. Ahem!”

She pretended to cough twice, then put on a serious expression and stretched out her first finger: "First of all, I hope you understand a concept: Mr. Heinrich Schliemann is not only a student of Lundwith University, but

A professor of history, he is also a traditional nobleman with the title of Viscount. His family has a long heritage and is very influential in the land of Renkweil. Therefore, the Institute of Prehistoric Heritage established by him has also attracted the attention of many upper-class people.

, including well-known entrepreneurs, bankers or manor owners, as well as celebrities from all walks of life, parliamentarians, dignitaries and even royal nobles. These people are not necessarily interested in archeology, but for the sake of Viscount Schliemann, they are still willing to

Attending the party is a way to show your sincerity. Since we want to sneak into the party, we will inevitably come into contact with these people. In order to prevent exposure, we must first integrate into their circle, at least in terms of image, etiquette, and conversation, without revealing any flaws.

Do you understand what I mean, Mr. Ringer?"

Ringer pondered, with a thoughtful look in his eyes: "It is not difficult to understand that etiquette and conversation are formed by habits and are difficult to change, but there seems to be a lot of room for improvement in terms of image."

"Yes, that's it!"

Gloria was very satisfied with Ringer's understanding, so she stretched out a second finger. Her index finger and middle finger were both raised, forming a V gesture. It looked like she was shouting yes to the two of them, although she

What he said next made Ringer not happy at all: "There is a saying in Lunweiting: beggars put on gold clothes and can also visit the king's palace. Although we are not beggars,

In fact, the situation is almost the same. They are all designed to blend into the circle of 'kings'. For this reason, a suitable dress and a good first impression are very important. It can help us better disguise ourselves and reduce exposure.

Probability. However, the problem is that the dresses suitable for such occasions are usually very high-end. Even if they are not customized and purchased, renting them from a high-end clothing store will cost at least one hundred to two hundred pounds. Considering that one person is attending the party

It’s very suspicious, and I need a companion, so I have to rent two apartments.”

"Oh, by the way, as guests, we are under the surveillance of Professor Heinrich Schliemann at all times and cannot move at will. This is also to confuse his vision. Therefore, we need other people to replace us

Sneak into his secret study to obtain information. It is best to have two people, not too many, and they can take care of each other. These two people can sneak in as attendants, but in this formal occasion, even the attendants' clothes

To be decent and elegant, you don't necessarily have to follow the specifications of a high-end dress, but at least, a cheap maid outfit like Miss Alice's is definitely not acceptable."

"To sum up, we need two sets of high-end gowns and two sets of decent attendant uniforms, all calculated based on the rental price. Taking into account possible damage or loss during the operation, the budget for this is about six hundred pounds. Mr. Ringer,

Miss Saint Xalia, do you have any objections?"

Both of them shook their heads, but the meanings were different. Linge understood and knew that there was nothing wrong with her calculation method and was even very conservative, so he shook his head to express that he had no objection; while Saint Xalia did not understand at all.

Of course she could count, but she knew nothing about such a secular thing, and she didn't know if Gloria had secretly taken kickbacks to line her own pockets, so she could only shake her head blankly and leave the judgment to Ringer.

"Okay, let's move on to the next point." Gloria nodded with satisfaction and stretched out her third white finger. Ringer suddenly found that her finger was a bit short and had some baby fat, but this was different from now.

The topic does not matter: "Besides the dress, there is one thing that is indispensable, and that is the carriage. When attending an upper-class party, you can't walk there by yourself. It will cost too much, and it will easily arouse the suspicion or dissatisfaction of the host.

, which is not conducive to our infiltration. Just like the dress, carriages can also be rented, but they need to be as high-end as possible. By the way, do any of you know how to drive? If not, we have to pay extra to hire a professional.

Only the coachman can do it. So, the budget for the rental of the carriage, the deposit, the coachman’s wages and other miscellaneous expenses is about 500 pounds to 800 pounds. What do you think?"

How else could he feel? Lin Ge shook his head numbly, while Saint Xalia glanced at him worriedly. She was mainly worried that the pressure of life would be too great and the pillars of the family would collapse.

"Well, there is a saying in Lunweiting's saying: A beggar can also enter the king's palace when he rides on a golden carriage." Gloria sighed pretendingly: "There is no way, this world is such a reality.

.”

Why do you, a beggar, want to enter the king's palace so much? Also, remember to change the format before making up common sayings next time.

"Of course, of course, there is one very important thing at the end." Indifferent to Ringer's complaining eyes, Gloria stretched out her fourth finger: "That is the fundraising session at the party, which can also be said to be the most important.

In this link, in order to promote archeology and expand the influence of the Institute of Prehistoric Heritage, Professor Heinrich actually used this method. He is really a shrewd person. There is no clear amount requirement for donations, but according to different

The written rule is that it should be at least about five hundred pounds to one thousand pounds. This amount of money is nothing to Professor Heinrich, and of course it is nothing to the guests attending the party, but to us

It is a heavy burden to say, and it has to be donated. Because once Professor Heinrich finds out that his secret study has been invaded, he will definitely use all means to find clues. The guests attending that night are undoubtedly the most

The first person to suspect. At this time, the professor checked the guest list and found out why someone couldn't even donate a few hundred pounds and only donated six pennies. There must be something wrong... Then wouldn't we be exposed? In other words

, this money is to buy us a glimmer of life at the last resort, and it must not be saved. Of course, if the infiltrator is exposed midway, you don't have to donate it, but I don't think you are willing to see this situation.

Happen?"

Lin Ge sighed helplessly: "Is there a fifth point?"

"No more." Miss Gloria said with a smile: "Basically, these places need money, so my request is reasonable, right? I definitely don't mean to line my own pockets, right?"

It is true that according to her calculations, every penny of the money was spent where it should be spent. Even the agents of the financial center did not calculate as clearly as she did.

but.

Ringer made a serious face: "I still think there is no need to spend so much money."

"Eh?" This was Gloria's confused voice: Is Mr. Ringer a miser? He wouldn't even compromise on such a necessary expense?

"Huh?" This was Saint Xalia's confused voice: Could it be that Ringer was influenced by Alice and refused to compromise on such a necessary expense?
