When the second royal carriage appeared outside the store, the face of the second prince Shukri suddenly turned gloomy.
Although the specifications and format of royal carriages are the same, there are still subtle differences. For example, the carriages ridden by royal family members such as the second prince, third prince, and fourth prince will have the royal emblem engraved on the door side.
The carriages of the two core members, King Rhodes IV and the Grand Prince Duke of Wales, will have a green olive ring added to the royal emblem on the side of the door to identify their noble status.
In the whole of London, only King Rhodes IV and the eldest prince, the Duke of Wales, are eligible to ride the Olive Ring Royal Carriage. Obviously, King Rhodes IV will not leave his busy official duties and come to East London in person, so the only people who come are The eldest prince, the Duke of Wales...
That is, the brother of the second prince Shukri and the heir to the throne supported by the current Pope Ubli I!
Ma Wei did not expect that the Duke of Wales would come to visit in person. He thought that the most valuable guest today was the second prince Shukri.
The door opened, and a man wearing a single-breasted navy blue suit with a notched lapel stepped out of the carriage. He had a high nose, a broad forehead, and a finely cut mustache on his lips. He looked somewhat like the second prince Shukri. They are similar in appearance and height, but they are older, looking about thirty-four or five years old.
The flat lapel suit worn by the eldest prince is the most common style among suits. It is versatile and can be worn by anyone. It will not appear rude in any occasion and highlights stability.
The suit worn by the second prince Shukri is another type of suit - a peaked lapel or double-breasted suit. The peaked lapel suit looks more aura and more unrestrained than the restrained flat lapel suit. The double-breasted design also further enhances the aura of the peaked lapel suit, making it look more ambitious and aggressive, and it is an elegant beast.
Compared with the second prince Shukri, the Duke of Wales is more reserved. This is because he has already stood in the position closest to the throne. As long as he makes no mistakes and plays steadily, the throne will definitely fall into his bag.
The Duke of Wales, who has gained status and status, is more stable than a year ago, at least according to the communication. The former Rose Phantom Thief broke into the safe of the Duke of Wales's house and stole information that affected the direction of the Church of Truth. Sapphire - Tears of the Siren.
Ma Wei is very interested in this great prince who has collected the Tears of the Siren. As a gemstone once used by the ancient god Asis, the Tears of the Siren is also a masterpiece of alchemy. Such a precious thing...how? Will it fall into the hands of the Duke of Wales?
Ma Wei has long wanted to solve this mystery, but has never had the chance.
jingle--
The bell on the store door rang, and the eldest prince Charles and the Duke of Wales entered the potion grocery store. They saw the second prince Shukri at first sight. He did not come forward to say hello, but walked slowly along the shelves while looking at them. Weird products, while saying slowly: "Shukri, why didn't you come to the banquet I held the night before yesterday?"
"......I do not feel well."
This is an extremely lame excuse. For the Church of the Three Goddesses of Destiny, which owns the Eternal Life Domain, noble princes will never be worried about health problems. As long as the Eternal Life Domain is activated, they will be cured in an instant, and there is no way to delay it. Time, let alone the banquet hosted by Prince Charles.
But the lame excuse given by the second prince Shukri was to give face to the eldest prince Charles. He couldn't say that he didn't want to participate, so he didn't go, right?
That would be so rude....
The eldest prince Charles did not expose his younger brother's excuse. Instead, he picked up a black wood statue of a wild monkey and looked at it carefully: "From the carving skills, it does look like the craftsmanship of the Southern Continent... It is still handmade, in total. There are three... Well, I like it, Mr. Nicholas, how much does this statue cost?"
There are three wild monkey statues in the hands of the eldest prince Charles, all carved on a piece of wood. They are purely handmade. Although they look weird on the outside, like three monkey demons returning from hell, they are essentially Ma Wei used these handicrafts to support the occasion. The specific price had never been thought of before.
In the potion grocery store, all the customers come to buy potions. Who has time to buy handicrafts from the Southern Continent?
It's not an extraordinary item...
But Ma Wei believes that what the eldest prince Charles wants to buy is probably not the statue in his hand, but a metaphor for people, which has a deeper meaning.
The statues are three wild monkeys. There are three brothers in the Manstein family. Whether there is any connection between them is a matter of opinion.
"If I were to bid, it might be more expensive." Ma Wei said with a smile, "So it's up to you, Your Highness, to bid."
"I'm not afraid of the price, I'm just afraid that it's not for sale."
The eldest prince Charles made a speech as if he was being taken advantage of. If it were any other businessman, he would definitely be brutally killed, but...
"How dare I collect money from you, Your Highness?"
Ma Wei took the initiative to take a step back, avoiding the questioning of the eldest prince Charles: "Your presence has made the shop shine. This statue can be considered a meeting gift from me to Your Highness."
"Does it fit?"
"The benefits you have brought to me are far more valuable than this statue."
After hearing these words, the eldest prince Charles smiled. After nodding slightly, he threw the black wood statue to the messenger: "Please wrap it up for me, as well as the three potions you sold today. Give each of them to I’ll have one.”
"no problem."
Laiwen walked behind the counter, quickly took out three boxes and an oil paper bag, and wrapped the black wood statue, the blood of mercury, the sleeping toast and the stick of Hercules respectively.
"Nix, pay."
After saying something to the housekeeper, the eldest prince Charles nodded to Ma Wei and others, and then walked out of the store, leaving as quickly as he came.
The old butler named Nick paid with a universal coupon, picked up the box and oil paper bag on the table, followed Prince Charles and boarded the carriage. After a while, the carriage left Flower Street from the other direction.
The arrival of the eldest prince Charles seemed to ruin the good mood of the second prince Shukri. He didn't say much. After buying the three limited edition potion products today, he left Flower Street without looking back. He walked very quickly. hurry.
The store was once again deserted. Lai Wen happily put the money in the drawer and said with a smile: "It's finally open, with an income of 126 gold pounds... This money is earned too fast!"
126 gold pounds is equivalent to half a year's income of the middle class. The potion business is indeed hugely profitable.
The eldest prince Charles did not recognize the true identity of the communication. If he knew that the communication was the Rose Phantom Thief who stole the Siren's Tears two years ago and exposed his affair with the theater actress Helena, he would be furious on the spot.
That incident left him so disgraced that he couldn't hold his head up for more than half a year.
"Communication."
"What's wrong, brother?"
"You go to the Royal Opera House in Covent Garden and buy some tickets. Tonight, we will go to support Helena Sheffield. She has a performance at the Royal Opera House in Covent Garden."
Watching a drama?
This was the first time that the author knew that Mavie had such a hobby. He had never seen Mavie go to entertainment venues such as opera houses and dance halls. Today, he suddenly mentioned it, probably because he was going to Helena Sheffield.
Helena Sheffield, a well-known theater actress in the Kingdom of Windsor, is 27 years old. She has performed on the stage at the Covent Royal Opera House many times. She was once a dancer in the ballet company. Because of her 'encounter', she suddenly became a dancer in the Kingdom of Windsor. The popular star, whose performances are sold out, will perform Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream at Covent Royal Opera House tonight, and tickets are said to have already been sold out.
Originally, Ma Wei had no intention of going to the theater, but the sudden arrival of the eldest prince Charles today made him change his mind.
"Please remember to buy VIP tickets for the second floor. In addition, in your name, I will send a bouquet of roses to the backstage of the theater for Miss Helena. You must fully express your admiration."
"....Brother, Miss Helena is the lover of the eldest prince Charles. I have already investigated this matter clearly. If you let me date her, aren't you poaching the eldest prince?" Even so, the letter still said He looked eager to try.
"Have you dug too many corners?"
"...."
Ma Wei said calmly: "Don't worry, I don't really want you to poach the eldest prince. Of course, if you can really get Helena, I will definitely support it, but this matter must be kept secret and cannot be exposed."
"I can't expose you and let me pick her up in a big way?"
"I went to support Miss Helena tonight because I wanted to get in touch with the eldest prince, Charles. You sending her roses was just superficial. As a lover, Miss Helena must be surrounded by spies planted by the eldest prince. Who gave her roses?" Hua, can the eldest prince not know?"
"Oh..." Lai Wen was a little disappointed: "You want to use me as bait to lure the snake out of its hole?"
"That's right."
"Then can I still pick up Miss Helena?"
"As long as you don't get discovered by the eldest prince, it's up to you."
