Chapter 897 Wasteful Spending

Chapter 897 Wasted money

"Mr. Congressman."

At this time, Jiang Bai was stunned for a moment by the old housekeeper's words, and the other party's tone was obviously quite surprised.

I don't know why there is such a surprised performance.

Anyway, following his voice, Jiang Bai saw an old man wearing a black robe, hidden in it, standing at the gate of the castle, and behind him except for four majestic people, all hidden in heavy armor In addition to the knights among them, there are twelve black-robed mages.

Jiang Bai doesn't know what the strength is. He is not too clear about this system. The opponent has not shown strength, and it is difficult for Jiang Bai to estimate the opponent's strength.

But it is foreseeable that these people are all masters.

"I didn't expect that the congressman would greet you personally. This really surprises me. Except for the other twelve people who are also congressmen and the speaker, there are very few people who are qualified to be greeted by the congressman in person!"

"Do you know when was the last time your Excellency the Congressman personally walked out of the castle to greet people?"

The old housekeeper said this in great surprise to Jiang Bai.

"How long?" Jiang Bai didn't know whether what the other party said was true or false, but he still cooperated with the other party.

"Fifty years ago!" The old butler said a surprising number.

Originally, the old housekeeper said this just to let Jiang Bai know that the congressman valued him unusually, but he didn't know that these words not only did not make Jiang Bai feel valued, but made him even more wary. a bit.

Listening to this, the undead councilor Markuz valued himself very much. He had not gone out to greet guests for fifty years, but now he came out to greet him.

This kind of attention makes people feel stressed.

To condescend to others must be to ask for something from others, and for such a person to ask for something from himself, it is definitely not a simple thing.

In Marcus' words, the man in front of him is definitely a big shot. It is definitely not a small matter for such a person to ask for help from others.

When he arrived at the door, Jiang Bai saw the noble appearance of the undead councilor. His pale face without a trace of blood exuded the breath of death. There was no trace of flesh color on his shriveled cheeks. His eye sockets were sunken, and there was a faint blue glow from the depths of his pupils. The light is like the undead in the movie.

Especially when he showed himself that smile that he thought was kind but creepy, Jiang Bai almost thought he was watching a zombie movie.

"Mr. Jiang, welcome to your arrival." The other party greeted Jiang Bai in a hoarse voice, expressing his welcome to Jiang Bai's arrival.

"It's my honor to be here as a guest, Mr. Markuz!" Jiang Bai also nodded in response.

Undoubtedly, the two people met with their own agendas, and could even be said to have their own agendas.

But no matter what, basic courtesy is still required when meeting.

Naturally, there were no nutritious greetings, and some polite words were exchanged. Markuz also took Jiang Bai on a rare tour of his castle.

To be honest, it is not as noble and perfect as the butler said. Jiang Bai doesn't like the feeling of old cold stones everywhere. The remaining castles are almost passable except Neuschwanstein Castle. Totally out of Jiang Bai's eyes.

However, Jiang Bai still maintained the courtesy that a guest should have, looking at everything in front of him with a smile, and politely expressed his appreciation for the castle.

Then the other party invited Jiang Bai to have dinner here.

Since it was already afternoon when Jiang Bai and the others arrived at the port, they had been driving and visiting the castle. It was already evening, so dining here was the right thing to do.

To be honest, Jiang Bai is really not very interested in eating with this guy who looks like a zombie inside this eerie castle.

Who knows what these guys are eating!

Fortunately, although this guy looks like an undead and his diet is extremely sparse, one thing is for sure, this guy is at least still a human being and he eats normal food.

Looking at the sumptuous dinner, Jiang Bai let out a sigh of relief.

It's finally normal.

Under the candlelight, Jiang Bai sat at the bottom of the dining table and had dinner with Markuz.

Maybe he felt that the two of them had nothing to talk about, or maybe he felt that Jiang Bai, a young man with a strong temper, would not be able to adapt here, so he made arrangements early.

No matter what the reason was, there were two scantily clad golden cats beside Jiang Bai when he was dining.

I don’t know where this old guy found these two golden cats that don’t look very old and have quite gorgeous looks.

With these two people, the atmosphere was obviously much more enthusiastic. The two golden cats were also quite well-behaved. While welcoming Jiang Bai's folk art, they also changed the atmosphere, making the two people who were originally a little embarrassed no longer treat each other so well. Health points.

"These two were given to me by others before. You know I am getting older and I always need someone to take care of me, so someone gave me these two people. If you like it, you can give it to you. Leave You can take it away when you arrive.”

Markuz said this with a smile after toasting with Jiang Bai.

take away?

Jiang Bai didn't have this idea. There is no doubt that these two golden cats are of the highest quality, but they are not stunning. They look very skilled in serving people, but if Jiang Bai is allowed to stay by his side, he will also In no mood.

What's more, who knows where these two people came from, Jiang Bai doesn't want to find two time bombs to follow him.

They are different from those people sent by Jiahe. No matter what purpose they have when they come, Jiang Bai uses them as thugs, and they are not close pillowmen, so naturally they have something. different.

Is there anything else these two people can do besides staying by their side?

But if he stayed by his side, the ghost would know when he would do something unexpected. Jiang Bai didn't want his every move to be in the hands of the old ghost in front of him.

"No need." Jiang Bai ignored the expectant looks of the two people beside him and declined the matter with a chuckle.

In response, Markuz smiled and did not force it.

For a while, the two people, who were discussing the local customs together and seemed to have a good rapport with each other, remained silent at this time.

I don’t know what I was thinking, but no one spoke.

After about ten minutes, the awkward atmosphere continued. In the end, Jiang Bai was still young and couldn't bear it any longer. He spoke: "I don't know, Congressman, why did you invite me here this time? No. Are you just inviting me to make a special trip to see your castle?"

In front of this half-human, half-ghost old guy who has lived for hundreds of years, time has completely lost its meaning in front of him. If this continues, he probably won't be able to sit there and spend a year and a half with himself. in a hurry.

Jiang Bai doesn't have time to waste time with him.
