397 Reasons

Just as Lawrence and Nora were chatting and guessing through their spiritual connection, the carriage gradually left the city and drove towards the suburbs. After all, no matter what the reason was for Viscount Doropia to invite Lawrence as a guest, he gave

The public excuse for hunting is to organize a hunt, so it must be a hunting estate in the suburbs.

Unexpectedly, the journey seemed a bit long. After leaving the city, it took the carriage a full hour to reach its final destination. Along the way, Lawrence and the others saw many or extremely exquisite and operating businesses on both sides of the road.

A very nice manor, or on the contrary, a manor that has been abandoned for various reasons and has become dilapidated.

Based on the appearance of these manors, Lawrence and others felt that this should be the first piece of farmland built by the first pioneers after they settled there. However, with the development of the times, this land slowly changed its use and became a manor for the nobles.

, wineries or other places where they can relax a little away from the hustle and bustle of the city.

"Okay, we're here." Soon the carriage stopped, and then the housekeeper jumped out of the carriage first and opened the door for them diligently and made an invitation gesture. Seeing this, Lawrence stretched out his left arm to let the little boy

The doll put his right hand up and walked out of the car in a rather elegant posture.

What appeared in front of them was a garden full of wild charm near a large mountain. Through the iron gate of the garden, Lawrence could see a path extending from the gate to the front of a two-story building. The building was covered with various creeping plants.

The walls and gardens filled with colorful flowers make this building very distinctive.

However, when following the butler into the creaking iron door, Lawrence discovered some slightly dilapidated places, such as the iron door with some mottled rust spots, and the iron door hidden by a series of plants.

The paint is peeling off, and various wooden components have even begun to decay and become damaged.

"I can basically confirm that there is indeed some financial problem in this family." Through the soul connection, Lawrence said to Nora, "But it is not serious. At least they can still afford the hunting estate and the

It’s a horse-drawn carriage, so it shouldn’t be the kind of house that’s completely ruined. It’s just a way of hinting something to us.”

At the beginning, Lawrence thought that the other party was a particularly down-and-out noble who wanted to fight with him. But now it seems that this is not the case. According to what he heard from other nobles during the training stage at the Heraldry Academy before being knighted,

The real dilapidated nobles often start by selling their own hunting manor. In other words, if there is a hunting manor, it means that even if the noble's financial situation is temporarily difficult to turn over, the foundation is still there.

With doubts, Lawrence followed the housekeeper into the door of the room. Although the two-story building did not look very big from the outside, unexpectedly there was a large foyer. A lot of sunlight filtered through the windows.

The room was illuminated brightly. Through these golden sunlight, Lawrence and the others found that the interior of the entire room was completely different from the shabby exterior. The overall decoration was very luxurious, with a luxurious Sinian-style silk carpet almost covering the entire room.

Covered the entire stone floor.

"I think there may be a slight deviation in our understanding." Nora said to Lawrence through the soul connection, "Although Viscount Doropia is not very rich, he should not have great financial difficulties. As for the carriage and building

The problem should be that this place is too close to the seaside, and the air is not only humid but also highly salty. So everything obviously breaks down faster."

However, in this way, it is difficult to guess why the Viscount sent an invitation letter to himself to invite him to hunt. At least Lawrence could not figure out what the relationship between the Viscount and himself was except for a relatively distant relative.

If there is any contact that requires him to send a special invitation letter.

According to the etiquette of the Elysian nobles that he made up for yesterday, this kind of invitation is somewhere between a formal invitation and an informal invitation. Although according to tradition, Lawrence did not take the initiative to send invitations to other people in the region.

It is not appropriate to send invitations to people. But in theory, exceptions can be made if there is a relative relationship.

However, if the invitation is based on kinship, then this can be regarded as an internal invitation between the same family. It will not involve anything related to the nobility. In this case, both parties can freely send invitation letters to each other, but

In this way, the people who can be invited are limited to the other party, and two people are not allowed to be invited at the same time.

Although they were communicating with each other through their soul connection, Lawrence and Nora behaved very normally to the outside world, and it was impossible to tell that they were communicating. In this silence, they walked together along the magnificent corridor just now.

In front of the heavy door at the end, the housekeeper turned the bronze door handle and opened the door, then bowed slightly and made an invitation gesture to invite the two of them in.

At this time, Lawrence discovered that the room was a living room. An old couple and a middle-aged man were sitting next to a well-decorated coffee table. Apart from them, there were two servants, a man and a woman, standing against the wall of the room.

The place is always ready to serve these family members.

"Hello! Viscount Doropia, thank you very much for your invitation." On the way here, the previous butler had already introduced Lawrence to the Viscount's family members, so he quickly identified these people in the room after entering.

He then took off his hat and saluted the older man sitting on the main seat. Beside him, Nora also fell to the ground and performed a skirt-lifting ceremony.

"Welcome to you for accepting my invitation to be a guest here." Viscount Doropia and everyone around the coffee table stood up to return the courtesy, and then invited Lawrence and Nora to sit down. For these noble families with a relatively long history, come

He said that he naturally knew what the constructed life of the caster's body meant. So he treated the little doll and Lawrence very politely.

After everyone was seated, the two servants served a variety of drinks and snacks. Then the five people gathered around the coffee table to enjoy the tea and drinks while saying some polite words.

The content of this type of chat is actually extremely boring, but it is indispensable for the nobles. Fortunately, Lawrence had received certain training in this area before, and at the same time he was able to connect with Nora through his soul.

Exchange information. So you can chat with the three hosts naturally.

During the chat, Lawrence found that the other party was using some kind of rhetoric to wear down his patience. However, considering that whoever raised the question first at this time would be at a disadvantage in the conversation, he followed the other party's topic and continued the conversation.

.After all, judging from the situation now, it seems that they have something they want to ask of themselves, so Lawrence is not in a hurry.

"It's a bit too presumptuous to invite you here today, but we do hope to get some help from you." After more than half an hour of polite chatting, Viscount Doropia and his family finally couldn't hold it any longer.

. So I simply stated the purpose of inviting him today.

"Help?" Lawrence nodded and felt a little relieved. In any case, the viscount heir's straight to the point words explained why the other party wanted to invite him, and for him, as long as he figured out how to invite himself

These problems can always be successfully solved after the reasons.

"Yes, we need your help." Aunt Mia said from the side, "I am a devout believer in the Agricultural Church. Yesterday when I went to the church to pray, I happened to meet Priest Octavia. She told

He told me about your existence and your views on agriculture. That’s why I sent someone to invite you last night.”
