I Have 48 Hours a Day

Vol 2 Chapter 160: Terence Manor

Zhang Heng also has a few days of vacation recently.

Maybe it happened before. When other people on the island went to trouble the Jackdaw crew again, they had to figure out whether they could withstand the captain's money offensive. So those jealous and fighting A lot less things.

Zhang Heng no longer needs to spend time to deal with these messy troubles. Most of the extra time every day is used to practice the knife with Annie. In addition, he will also organize the vegetable garden he set up.

It must be acknowledged that the tropical climate has natural advantages in planting. The tomatoes, carrots, and cabbage seeds that he sprinkled randomly before did not care much, and even often went out for a month or two, but he still saw a lot of Thrive, and now you can directly harvest.

However, compared with fighting against, red-haired girls are less interested in this kind of thing, often just paralyzed in a chair outside the door, watching Zhang Heng do something in the vegetable garden.

What happened that night was like a small pebble that fell into the lake and made a ripple, but soon returned to calm.

After dawn, the two returned to their previous lives. Anne's attitude towards Zhang Heng did not seem to have changed much, and there was no feeling that ordinary little girls were immersed in love.

However, since then she often can't help but find Zhang Heng singled out, if this is also a way to express love.

…………

Five days later, Zhang Heng arrived at Terence Manor as agreed.

With him are Annie and Billy. Although this dinner should not be dangerous, as the captain of the Jackdaw, if there is only a bare pole commander to go to the dinner, it will be a little unsightly.

Malcolm's banquet was not held in Nassau, but closer to the heart of the island. This is a plantation in his name and where he usually lives.

Unlike the humble wooden huts on the North Shore, the main building in the manor is built of stone and uses the most popular Baroque style in Europe now. However, there are no suitable stones on New Providence Island. They can only be transported from other places. The price of each rock is very high. In addition, Malcolm specially invited two famous from Italy. Designer, it took three years to complete the construction of this manor. Tonight is also the first time it has opened the mysterious veil to outsiders.

"It seems that guy has made a lot of money these years." Annie yelled at a statue of Apollo and Daphne in front of the door.

"This is also the purpose of setting up a dinner here tonight, telling all guests who come here to make money by working with him." Zhang Heng can guess some Malcolm's ideas.

"Now it seems that his purpose should have been achieved." Billy sighed, he turned around and looked around, some people have come one after the other, most people have seen the face of this delicately carved statue There was a look of surprise on it.

A man dressed like a housekeeper outside the door checked the invitation in Zhang Heng's hand and nodded at the three of them. "Welcome to Terence Manor, I wish the three distinguished guests a happy dinner tonight."

After speaking, he shook the bell in his hand, and immediately three black maids came over, and they looked like they were only sixteen or seven years old. One of them walked to Annie in a short position, and spoke in some crappy English. Hello, my name is Daisy, and I will entertain you tonight, and I will make every effort to meet all your needs. "

As a result, the red-haired girl raised her eyebrows. "I don't need it. I don't like anyone to follow me."

The black maid in front of her heard a hint of embarrassment and still had a smile on her face, but the smile had become a little reluctant.

The housekeeper on the side noticed the situation here and came over after checking the invitation letter of another guest to arrange the maid reception. He looked at some helpless Daisy in front of An An and politely said, "Several VIPs , What happened, are you dissatisfied with Daisy? I can replace you with a new maid immediately. "

Annie was planning to say something, but Zhang Heng said first, "Nothing, we just wanted to ask Daisy to take us to tour the manor."

The steward smiled, "I believe you will like it, but the area is very large, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to visit in a while, and the special program tonight is about to start. You better go first In the banquet hall, there will be free time after the dinner. If you like, you can stay here and tell the maids around you. "

Zhang Heng nodded his thanks, and then started to walk towards the brightly-lit building not far away.

Annie is not stupid. When Zhang Heng interrupted, she immediately thought of something. After leaving the gate, she asked the black maid next to her, "If I would just reject you, what would happen to them, would they punish you?"

The latter was silent. Annie stretched out Daisy's clothes, and sure enough she saw a lot of whip marks on her back. After that, the grumpy girl wanted to pull out a dagger around her waist.

Billy on the side quickly stopped, "Don't mess around, although I don't like this kind of thing, but they are sold here as equivalent to goods. In theory, no matter what Malcolm wants to do to them, no one else can. Blame ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ And it's not a good thing for her to be your first friend. We are just guests and will leave after tonight, but they will continue to live here. "

When Daisy heard Billy's words, a look of gratitude appeared on her face, Annie cut a little, and reconciled the dagger.

The three quickly came to the banquet hall, and Daisy, who was walking in front, opened the door.

If the building outside is just luxurious, the decoration inside can be described by golden splendor. In the center of the dome is a huge chandelier with more than a hundred candles placed on it, lighting the entire hall like daylight. Bright, the walls are covered with reliefs and ribbons, and soft Persian rugs are under the feet.

"This long-lost feeling is like returning to England again." A big landowner who came in behind the three could not help feeling.

At this time, many people have come to the banquet hall, but they are divided into two obvious groups. Most of the merchants are more reserved. Although they praise the decoration and carvings in the room, they just stand side by side and admire quietly, while the pirates No matter how much it is, there are a lot of valuable things that you can use directly to touch, and still estimate the price of this thing in your heart, thinking how much you can sell if you go along.
