Mavey didn't believe a word of what Freya said just now. Lan
Although the emotions in her tone were very sincere and sincere, there were several issues that could not be concealed.
First of all, Freya has been very proactive from the beginning, and being very proactive often has a strong purpose, just like a salesman, their purpose is to sell you products and get a commission.
Freya admitted her purpose personally, but she used the second prince Shukri as a shield. Was there any other intention behind it?
More importantly...
While Freya was talking, Mawei quietly took out the real pocket watch. Every time Freya said something, he would glance at the hands and find that the hands were jumping back and forth on the dial. This was not a sign of discovering the ancient god or being unable to guess. , but....
Freya's words were half true and half false.
When she said that she was assigned by the second prince, the red pointer bypassed the white dial and stopped at 8 o'clock on the black dial. This meant that the conclusion was wrong, but the process was correct. Lan
In other words, Freya noticed Mavi because of Shukri, but the real reason why she got close to Mavi was not because of Shukri's command, but for other purposes.
As for later saying that she wanted to find a husband...
The True Pocket Watch gives the answer to the lie without hesitation.
Freya didn't really want to get married, it was just a method she used to confuse Mavey.
What made Ma Wei a little confused was that Freya said that she and he got along very well. This sentence was true and correct, and the pointer stopped at the 3 position.
Half sincere, half false?
The real pocket watch cannot distinguish between emotions. It can only answer lies and truth. Freya's extremely complicated heart makes Mavey temporarily unable to determine her true thoughts. Lan
Sometimes, Ma Wei felt that he could not trust the real pocket watch too much.
After all, this is the artifact left by Buggy, the God of Truth. Will Buggy secretly change the judgment of the True Pocket Watch to guide him?
Many times, Mavi trusts his own judgment more than the actual pocket watch that may have been tampered with by Buggy.
He never regarded Buggy as one of his own.
"Nicholas, aren't you willing?" Freya looked at Mavi longingly. Seeing that he had not expressed his position for a long time, she let go of her arms in frustration, "I understand what you are thinking."
"Freya, the time we have known each other is too short. As I said before, many things cannot be rushed. It is better for everyone to take it slow."
As Mavi said this, Yunia nodded in deep agreement, and couldn't agree more. Lan
Yes!
You should sternly reject this bad woman!
"I heard that Nicholas you are going to open a potion company and are recruiting people. If you don't mind, I am willing to help." Freya said suddenly.
"Help? What help?"
Ma Wei was stunned for a moment: "Freya, you don't want to work for me, don't be kidding, you are a hereditary duke!"
"The status of a Duke is a kind of protection and a restriction for me." Freya sighed: "I want to escape from this prison and experience the life of ordinary people. Nicholas, can you help me?"
Starting to play the emotional card again....Lan
Ma Wei suddenly discovered that Freya had a plan for her moves. She was very proactive, but she also liked to talk about emotions, just to take advantage of normal men's psychological activities of pity for women...
really.
With Freya's beauty, if she could squeeze out a few tears, she would probably make too many men soften their hearts.
Ma Wei was very sensible and was not confused by Freya's pitiful appearance. The moment Freya proposed joining the potion company, he thought of many possibilities.
one of them...
Could it be that Freya was the second prince Shukri's spy who inserted himself into the potion company?
If he refuses, will the second prince and the others be suspicious of him? Lan
This is normal. In any large listed company, board members must have spies in the company to obtain all kinds of information to prevent themselves from being completely kept in the dark.
Ma Wei had long expected that the second prince Shukri would install spies in the potion company. For this reason, he deliberately left an insignificant position for those spies. Unexpectedly...
Freya actually wants to join the potion company.
"I want to spend more time with you, isn't this okay?" Freya said a little aggrievedly.
Ma Wei stared at her for a long time, grinned and said: "If this is Freya's wish, of course it is fine. The company will be established soon, and many positions are short of manpower. I don't know which position Freya would like to go to." ?”
"I want to be your secretary, is that okay?"
"Today I make you his secretary, but tomorrow the king will send me to the gallows..." Lan
"No! I'll go tell the king!"
"That's not possible." Ma Wei slowly shook his head: "I don't need a secretary, unless there are too many things for me to handle alone."
If possible, Ma Wei wouldn't want to do everything himself.
But now he is an undercover agent lurking in London. He can only do many things himself. Trusting others is not giving up the destiny that should be controlled by himself.
Let Freya be the secretary, and the secrets of the entire company will be opened to her, which Mavie cannot accept.
Even if you need to recruit a secretary in the future, you must be someone you can trust.
Mrs. Cecil, for example, would be perfect. Lan
"How about this."
Ma Wei thought for a while and said: "Freya, your identity is very sensitive, and many positions are not suitable. In this case, it is better to create a separate position for you."
"What position?"
"Sales, that is, special personnel who promote potions." Ma Wei said: "What you have to do, Freya, is to use your identity to promote potions to as many nobles as possible."
"oh...."
Freya's eyes dimmed, she stroked her neck, and soon she smiled: "Okay."
..................................lan
In the evening, Mawei took Yunia back to Flower Street.
Freya agreed to his request and agreed to join the potion company as the sales director. This was a false position. She was the only one in the entire department for the time being and had no access to the core of the company.
The sales department is also a special department set up by Ma Wei for 'staff' whose identities are questionable.
If the second prince inserts an informant into the company, or if the eldest prince or third prince sends spies, they will be packaged together and sent to the sales department. In short, it must not affect the normal operation of the company.
After returning home, Ma Wei was planning to boil mercury blood and replenish the goods, when he suddenly saw Lai Wen coming back with a dark face.
"Why do you look so ugly?"
"I lost half a month's salary. Isn't it ugly?" The letter said depressedly: "Brother, do you know that Black Billy will win?" Lan
"Did you bet on the horse race?"
"Um."
"How much was the bet?"
"Ten gold pounds."
"You deserve it." Ma Wei sneered: "You should quit gambling as soon as possible."
"I'm just having fun!"
"Everyone who gambles to the point of losing their lives says at first that they are just playing for fun, but what happens? If you lose once, you want to win back your money, and if you win, you want to win more..." Ma Wei said with emotion: "Fortunately, this time I didn’t let you taste the sweetness, otherwise you would definitely have to gamble a second time." Lan
Lai Wen asked unwillingly: "Brother, didn't you gamble?"
"No."
"Why? Don't you know that Black Billy can win?"
"I know it can win. Is there any necessary connection between whether I gamble or not?"
"You know it can win. If you place a bet on it, won't you make money?"
"What do I need money for?"
"......"Lan
Lai Wen suddenly realized that for Ma Wei now, he was not short of money.
To be precise, what he lacks is not the small money he can earn from horse racing, but big money like hundreds or tens of millions of gold pounds.
Only then did Lai Wen realize that he was too small and his situation was too small.
At this time, Daniel walked into the store with a smile while holding a pile of gold coins, and said to Laiwen: "Felix! I made a lot of money betting on horses today! How much did you make? You won't lose, right? How pitiful. If you take me with you today, you can make a lot of money!"
Lai Wen glanced at him, turned around and followed Ma Wei towards the basement. Before leaving, he did not forget to complain:
"childish."
