Stephenson looked at the things in Mo Cheng's hands and didn't know how to express his gratitude.

"No, no, no, this is too valuable, I can't accept it." Stephenson quickly refused.

But Mo Cheng said: "Do you want to sleep on the streets in Longyan?"

Stephenson thought for a moment, what if he went and slept on the streets in Longyan.

In addition, I am not a Longyan person, and I don’t understand the Longyan language very well. In such a situation.

If he had no money, his life in Longyan would be basically useless. Thinking of this, Stephenson still accepted Mo Cheng's money.

"Mo Cheng, you are really the most generous gentleman I have ever seen. May God bless you." Stephenson said sincerely.

"It's okay, just think of it as my investment in you."

Stephenson was stunned for a moment, then laughed.

They all know Mo City. Stephenson put on his hat and lowered the brim of his hat. The sky outside was already pitch black. He said, "I'm leaving first."

Newton also followed Stephenson out and said in a deep voice: "I'll see him off."

Mo Cheng and Hu Xier nodded. In their eyes, Newton and Stephenson's carriage moved away from here.

After watching them leave, Mo Cheng and Hu Xier returned to the house.

At this time, the British spies lurking near Newton's home saw this scene and recorded it.



At this time, America.

Fergieris.

Not long after the last banquet, George's sister-in-law, Mrs. Denny, invited George to accompany her to a dinner party.

This made George miss his military career a little bit, not that it was so wonderful.

But the days at home are too simple and unpretentious.

Either at the banquet or on the way to the banquet.

This made George a little fatter.

But it was impossible for George to refuse his sister-in-law's request. Although he didn't want to go, he still dressed up to attend tonight.

In the carriage, George's sister-in-law, Mrs. Dany.

I have been talking about the fact that this time I attended Earl Lane's banquet.

He is one of the greatest earls in Vergilis, and Earl William is much inferior to him.

Although the two were both earls, their statuses were different. Earl William was a newly appointed earl in the British Colony who was canonized by the British royal family at the request of Clintsy.

But Earl Lane is not. Earl Lane is a serious nobleman in Britain.

The Lane family already held the title of earl very early on, and it has been hereditary for many years.

But such nobles finally chose to immigrate to America, not because they could no longer survive in Britain and needed to immigrate to ensure their family's power.

it's not true.

There is only one reason why Earl Lane chose to come to America. He owns a large number of plantations in America, and he has factories that manufacture textile machines and production.

In the industrial revolution that swept through all the old nobles in Britain, Earl Lane did not suffer too much impact.

Instead, he accepted converting his land into plantations and even purchased textile machinery to form a production line.

As a result, he gained huge wealth, and it also gave him, a veteran nobleman, a great voice.

Although he is in Fogilis, no one can shake his position.

Even though his status and money have reached their peak, he still has one very painful thing.

That is the apple of his eye, Qin, who still has no partner.

She is already twenty-eight years old. Even if Earl Lane is a nobleman and his money and status have reached the peak, he will find this matter very shameless.

Along the way, Sister-in-law Dany kept chattering about the identity of Earl Lane, the identity of his beloved lady named Qin, their hobbies, etc.

Hearing this, George's ears almost became calloused and he didn't give up.

George looked at his sister-in-law and said helplessly: "Sister-in-law, I just accompanied you to the dinner party."

"I'm not interested in Count Lane's daughter. Please stop talking."

Danni looked at George's impatient face and then calmed down for a few minutes.

But not long after, Dany said again: "George, you should get to know the daughter of Earl Lane tonight. I heard that she admires you very much."

George was completely devastated and continued to listen to his sister-in-law's labor nagging while sitting in the carriage.

From Mount Vernon to Earl Lane's estate, George swore that this section was definitely the longest and most painful section he had ever walked.

George nearly collapsed.

Fortunately, just when he was about to collapse, the carriage stopped.

The coachman's voice came from outside: "Madam, Master, we have arrived."

Hearing these words, George jumped out of the carriage as soon as he was pardoned. He could no longer stand his sister-in-law's nagging.

The carriage was half as tall as a man. George had been a soldier, so there would be no problem jumping out of the carriage.

But George's sister-in-law, Lady Denny, was unable to do this.

Her coachman took the wooden pier underneath and stepped out of the carriage step by step.

But in this moment, Mrs. Denny didn’t see George.

When she saw George, she found that George was having an argument with someone.

"This woman, please show some respect."

The woman who was arguing with George snorted coldly and stared at George's handsome but cold face.

"Why are you not convinced? Although I didn't pay attention and was careless just now, you shouldn't avoid it!"

George was speechless at such an answer. Just now, after he got off the carriage and walked to the door, he didn't pay attention and was met by a woman in a hurry.

However, George had been in the British army for a period of time, so he subconsciously avoided it.

The woman was not so lucky. She tripped on the sole of her foot and almost got chewed by a dog.

At this time, at the gate of Earl Lane's manor, there were all prominent figures from all walks of life in Fogelis. If this thing really happened.

There will be an impact on her reputation.

However, George reacted in time. Although he avoided it, he hurriedly supported the lady and prevented her from being embarrassed. However, inevitably the lady's dress was slightly damaged.

The lady showed no gratitude at all, but pointed at George's nose and cursed: "You shouldn't have gotten out of the way just now, otherwise I wouldn't be in such a mess."

"..." George didn't answer.

He didn't want to say a word to such a woman.

George turned around and left, not wanting to tangle with her anymore, but this woman refused to let George go, this guy who had embarrassed herself.

"Stop, you bastard, you behaved in such an ungentlemanly way, and you still want to leave?"

George couldn't help but look back at her: "Dear lady, what do you want to do?"
