Chapter 243 "The Liar"

The name Jack Sparrow (Captain Jack) spread throughout Narnia, an island city with a population of 40,000, within a day.

Spread all over the streets and alleys.

It spread to the Governor's Office, the overseas colonial army, the rebel army, and the pirate chiefs.

Everyone knows that there is a son of a wealthy family who treats money as toilet paper in Paradise City, and they know that he is not easy to mess with.

If the pirates in Narnia City regarded Captain Jack as a weak and bully sheep at first, this lesson taught them a truth.

Even if he is really just a big fat sheep, he is still a big fat sheep who knows how to use resources.

The old rules of Mogadishu are just empty words to him, he will not follow the rules, and will use all means to defend himself.

Because of this settlement incident, the forces behind these reckless attackers fled even more. Among the pirates and gangsters hunted down by the Church of the Storm, only a few lucky ones escaped.

"White Shark", the captain of the Blue Warrior Pirates, was so frightened that he withdrew from Narnia overnight when he heard the rumor.

If his bounty of five thousand crowns for pirates was doubled,

Immediately, it became a fragrant steamed bun of the sea.

The rich gentleman waved a lot of banknotes to clear the way, and even ghosts and gods wanted to avoid it.

Some people speculated that he got rich through some kind of special business, some people rumored that he was a son-in-law from a certain big family, and some even said that he had a close relationship with a certain royal family.

But no matter how people guess, one fact is absolutely certain,

Captain Jack holds a huge amount of wealth unimaginable by ordinary people.

...

6 Clearwater, one of Narnia City's finest neighborhoods.

There is also the Governor's Mansion in this area, and there are a large number of Landis Army naval patrols every day. The Church of the Storm is not far from here, and the security capabilities are by no means comparable to ordinary residences.

Tu Fu, wearing a white vest, black waistcoat, and a silk top hat, stared at his new residence.

A new three-storey home with its own swimming pool near the river bank.

The white wooden fence, the pointed dark red roof, looking inside, is the high foyer and the grand gate, with semicircular arched windows everywhere.

And walking in, you can see the luxurious hall, where the complicated gas lamps emit warm light.

The high walls on all four sides cast a dark shadow on the soft floor. Inside the wall is a maroon sunken wood wine cabinet, which is filled with world famous wine. You can smell the intoxicating wine when you open the soft cork. fragrant.

There are many valuable portraits placed on both sides of the cold and spacious ear corridor.

Even people who don't know how to paint will be captivated by the eyes of the characters in the portraits and praise them against their will.

This place is extremely luxurious, and the price is not even cheaper than the central area of ​​Baia King's Capital, but Tu Fu didn't spend a penny, and just settled down shortly after arriving.

A large bank in St. Nordin immediately found this high-quality customer, hoping to have more business dealings with him in the future.

A person like this who casually shows some coins from between his fingers is also an amazing wealth.

As for this super mansion in Clear Water Bay, it was their sincerity that they offered to stay here before Tu Fu settled down.

In the future, whether to leave or buy it is up to him.

The obsequious senior manager of the bank is bending over to guide Tu Fu to introduce this house. In his opinion, there is nothing wrong with this mansion.

"Sir, the original owner of this place was a small royal family, but due to problems left over from the war, the house had to be mortgaged to us.

Everything here is built according to the standards of members of the royal family. I dare to swear with my life that this is definitely the best house in Narnia other than the Governor's Mansion, and it is definitely worthy of your noble status. "

After this introduction, he had expected that this distinguished guest would be full of compliments, or at least nod his head.

However, after Tu Fu heard his introduction, he didn't even blink his eyelids, and just asked casually: "Oh, is there any image of the Governor's Mansion for sale in the near future?"

This made the bank manager ask a question. He resisted the urge to curse, but he still laughed and said, "Mr. Sparrow is from Baia? People always say that Baia people don't have a sense of humor, but I learned from you." Seeing this rare and precious quality.”

"I'm not joking." Tu Fu's face was still cold.

"Ahem... If the city of Narnia doesn't go bankrupt, I'm afraid there won't be such a possibility in the past fifty years."

The bank manager coughed to hide his embarrassment, afraid that he would ask when the city of Narnia would go bankrupt, so he hurriedly introduced to him,

"Coincidentally, the previous owner of this mansion is also from Baia. I wonder if you have heard his name, a Mr. Smith."

"He invited me to dinner a few times, and he also had some small business contacts. Don't look at the Black Forest consortium's momentum in recent years. In the final analysis, the most important thing for people like Mr. Smith is not to continue to expand, but to Realize that the wealth you have is earned by yourself or given by the kingdom."

Tu Fu's attitude was still normal, and he gave an unsurprising evaluation.

"I think you're right."

The bank manager wiped off the sweat from his forehead and nodded again and again, and his attitude towards this mysterious rich kid was even more respectful, so how dare he talk about such things.

"You come to the house, we have hired the servants you need for your daily life in advance, 1 full-time housekeeper, 2 chefs (staple food and dessert), 1 driver, 4 maids and 3 servants .”

The bank manager Chen Ken introduced their arrangement to Tu Fu. There are eleven people in this mansion.

They are professionals carefully selected by the bank to take care of various matters in the owner's life.

The professional skills of everyone present can be described as excellent, but there is no bodyguard among them. A rich kid like this will never replace the security around him with an outsider, and has always brought it himself.

But this one seems to be too arrogant, let alone a bodyguard when he came to Paradise City, he didn't even bring a servant with him.

Those vulgar pirates don't care how high you are.

If he hadn't invited the Church of Storms, he might have died here immediately.

Even so, he still broke the rules. In this city, which has always engraved its savage genes in its bones, there are many people who can't understand this person's behavior. No one likes people who break the rules at will.

But these bank managers didn't say anything, for fear that they would scare the other party by speaking out, and it was very likely to ruin the business.

"Not bad, let's go here."

After looking around casually, Tu Fu gave the most gentle evaluation the bank manager has ever heard today.

He finally got the approval of this gentleman.

The bank manager lowered his head slightly, put one palm on his chest and the other on his back, and made an elegant parting etiquette,

"Dear Mr. Sparrow, it is a pleasure to serve you, and I look forward to more cooperation with you in the future."

After speaking, he finally completed the task of this trip.

"No."

This is more in line with his current personality.

Tu Fu's always tense face finally relaxed after he had been deadlocked for a long time.

It turns out that it is not easy to pretend to be a rich man.

In his eyes, the rich and nobles in Baia are mostly as indifferent as he is, and they always act with their nostrils turned to the sky when they treat people who are obviously lower than him and have countless ranks.

In fact, excluding the money invested in the construction of the factory in the Southern Continent and the money spent at Winster's hot pot restaurant last year, he only had more than 10,000 kroner left in his hand after this trip.

But it doesn't matter whether he is rich now, the important thing is that people feel that he is rich enough.

The value of wealth is never spent,

In itself, this is the value.

After a short rest, Tu Fu waved the steady butler, Alfred, to let the servants in the mansion perform their duties.

On the other hand, he admired this mansion with great interest, a mansion that he probably would never have lived in in his entire life before traveling through.

In the spacious corridor and aisle, he inspected every portrait in his territory like a king.

Although most of them don't know each other, it doesn't affect his interest in appreciating artworks.

For a long time, he stayed on a portrait with an ordinary but intriguing painting technique.

It is special in this row of portraits.

It was an extravagant banquet, the men and women present were elegant and luxurious, and people were all dressed in expensive evening gowns and suits.

But the person standing at the C seat of the banquet was wearing simple civilian attire,

Looked out of place with those present.

But this banquet seems to be centered on this person, and the actions appear to be flamboyant.

The overall structure of this painting is extremely weird, and there is a kind of unspeakable discomfort.

"Sir, shall I introduce you to this painting?"

The butler Alfred saw Tu Fu staring at him for a long time, but his face was full of sorrow, so he made a sound at an appropriate time.

"you say."

"The famous paintings of the talented painter Cannavaggio, a realist painter, has always been known for his novel and treacherous painting style, and many of his works contain criminal elements such as 'gamblers', 'hooligans', and 'fugitives'.

And this famous painting called "The Liar" tells the story of a professional liar with superb deceit, who pretends to be a celebrity and participates in a high-end banquet without even changing into the fancy dress for the banquet.

He even fooled the guests at the banquet with his excellent eloquence, talking to the guests about something they thought they were familiar with, the way of the upper class celebrities.

From the beginning to the end of the banquet, no one noticed..."
