Chapter 187: Baroness Alice

"Does that hot spring really have the effects of relieving fatigue and whitening skin?" Mrs. Smith did not agree immediately, but asked curiously.

A pair of eyes covered with crow's feet, but with a little more charm, sparkled with anticipation.

No woman will not care about her skin, especially an older woman.

"I don't know, I haven't tried it. But Luther swore that it should be possible." Alice shrugged. If she were in front of others, she would definitely tell lies, but in front of her grandmother, who loved her the most,

But she told the truth.

"Maybe it's just a gimmick." Mrs. Smith obviously lacks trust in Luther, whom she has never met, but she also feels that if it is used as a gimmick, this gimmick is still okay.

At least Mrs. Smith, despite her doubts about the efficacy of the hot springs, decided to take a dip in the resort once it opened.

"Okay, if there is a party or girlfriends event recently, I will publicize it." Mrs. Smith patted the back of Alice's hand and promised.

Regardless of whether the hot spring has curative effects or not, it can be used as a publicity stunt. The key is that the vacation model, hotel model, and party social model of the hot spring resort are all very good.

It is a good place for vacation for nobles who have nothing to do.

In this case, the curative effect of hot springs is actually unparalleled. For nobles, socializing and accumulating connections is the most important thing.

Besides, Mrs. Smith really loves Alice very much. When she looks at Alice, she will think of her daughter who died young. She is really loving and distressed.

Since Alice had invested all her belongings and worked hard, she had to help.

But helping is helpful, and Mrs. Smith is also very interested in the development of a metropolis. Mrs. Smith asked, "That Luther, is Pompeii really capable of developing a metropolis?"

She admitted that with the help of the Morgan family, Alice, and Kuba and Brown, the resort project would have a high success rate.

But he had doubts about the Pompeii family's plan to develop a metropolis.

That involves all aspects of issues, not just financial resources, but also influence and political issues.

"I think the possibility is still very high. My father is a mediocre baron and will not prevent the rise of his subordinates. Besides, my father has a very good relationship with the contemporary Pompeii knights, Thor and Pompeii. If the Pompeii family

If he really wants to become a top knight family, or even become a nobleman, then it doesn't matter to him. On the contrary, because of the relationship between the two families, if the Pompeii family rises, it will also be good for the Barton family. It can make the Barton family in Orange

It is politically feasible to gain more say. As for issues of influence and financial resources, I trust Luther Pompeo more. This guy is an outstanding lord."

At this time, Alice lost many of the little girl's demeanor and transformed into a female politician, analyzing clearly and rationally.

Mrs. Smith still trusts Alice's vision. She is a person who is good at observing a person, especially a man.

While the men were dazzled by her charming appearance, she had already seen a man clearly from the inside out.

This is her granddaughter, the famous Miss Alice Barton.

"Since you said so, then I have a strong interest in the development of Pompeii metropolis." Mrs. Smith said with narrowed eyes.

As the current main power holder of the Hubbs family, Mrs. Smith has always had a strong interest in making money.

The development of a metropolis cannot be accomplished by just one capital. If the Orange Group develops a resort, it will indeed have unlimited potential in the future.

But since the resort has invested 1.3 million gold coins, the Orange Group will not be able to get out too many gold coins in a short time.

At most, it can free up annual profits for city development. Coupled with the strength of the Pompeii family, developing a city will still be like a tortoise, and the speed will be very slow.

More capital power must enter.

Luther knew this, Alice knew it, Amanda knew it, and of course Mrs. Smith also knew it.

And the profits from developing a city, haha.

"There should be a plan to introduce capital by then. Perhaps this plan will be carried out when the hot spring resort opens. After all, there should be an influx of many Orange rich people at that time."

Alice revealed herself to Mrs. Smith.

"It seems I should go." Mrs. Smith said with a chuckle.

After talking about business matters for a while, Mrs. Smith became concerned about the Barton family's affairs.

"By the way, I heard that the first vassal of your Barton family and the heir of the Gandall family was murdered not long ago. How is the investigation going now?"

Mrs. Smith asked.

When she heard about it at the time, Mrs. Smith was really shocked because she heard that her lovely granddaughter Alice was also present.

"The progress of the investigation has been minimal. Poor Mousse, Gandall died in vain." Alice shook her head. Although she said poor Mousse Gandall, there was absolutely no expression of sadness on Alice's face.

Because she was not very familiar with Mousse and Gandall. The arrogant Miss Alice would not be sad about this.

"I think this matter has something to do with your excellent brother." Mrs. Smith said.

"Lucy, Barton?" Alice narrowed her eyes slightly, like a cunning fox.

"Barbara, although Knight Gandall has several children, he is just an only son. If Knight Gandall has no heir, then who will inherit the title?" Mrs. Smith asked.

"Barbara, Gandalf has a younger brother." Alice said, and then without Mrs. Smith's analysis, she said, "And that younger brother has a very harmonious relationship with my younger brother Lucy and Barton. And if my excellent younger brother wants

When competing for the position of heir, having the support of Knight Gandall is a very powerful help."

"But this is all your guess, Grandma."

Alice looked up at Mrs. Smith.

"Speculation is the beginning of reality." Mrs. Smith smiled and shook her head. At this moment, she seemed to be a weathered wise man.

"By the way, aren't you interested in the Barton family title? If you are interested, I will support you in becoming a Baroness."

Mrs. Smith said half jokingly, half seriously.

This world is a very strange world. The aristocracy is inherited by primogeniture. The chance of the second son is slim, but the eldest daughter usually gets a share of the pie.

If Alice has the support of a huge force behind her, and Alice herself is a strong female knight, she has a certain chance of becoming a Baroness.

Just like the famous Marquise of Tulips.

"I'm not interested in ruling a territory." Miss Alice shrugged rudely, expressing her disdain.

"Hey." Mrs. Smith sighed, expressing regret.
