Steel, Guns and the Industrial Party Across the World Chapter 59

The weather in July was very hot. In the evening of this day, the small town of Butuya ended its hustle and bustle for the day. Residents finished their work one after another, or hurried home to eat, or the gang of three or five had a drink in the tavern. A beer chilled with cold water.

At the city gate to the west, the guards guarding the gate looked up at the sunset from time to time, hoping that she would go down the mountain quickly so that the gate could be closed for a change of guard.

At this time, they saw a carriage slowly approaching Butuya from the west, surrounded by several guards.

On weekdays, few people entered the city at this time. The guards opened their eyes and carefully watched the approaching carriage, and slowly saw its whole picture clearly. There was a flag planted on it, and a flying dragon with its teeth and claws drawn on it.

The captain of the guard recognized the family crest on the flag: "It's the carriage of the Greiman family."

He immediately ordered the soldiers closest to him: "Hurry up, ride my horse and inform Lord Angelo that the Greiman family has arrived."

Immediately after receiving the order, the soldiers ran into the inner side of the city gate to look for horses. After a while, they heard the sound of horseshoes gradually going away.

The team leader stopped the carriage and asked loudly, "Which adult from Arda is inside?"

After the coachman stabilized his horse, the door of the car opened, and an old man with a white beard and kind eyes came down, and he said with a smile: "I am Lord Vackley Ford, Lord Seal Keeper of the Land of Arda, and I am here to visit your lord Garnard. Earl, and send an invitation to my lord's birthday party."

The captain said respectfully: "It turns out to be the Baron, let me accompany you to the Lord's Mansion."

Old Ford agreed, stepped into the carriage, and the coachman urged the horses to drive slowly into the city with the captain.

In front of the Butuya lord's mansion, four people stood there to welcome the arrival of Chief Ford. At the front was Viscount Angelo, Lord Seal Keeper of Bairding, followed by Viscount Abbott, Baron Amos, and Baron Blau.

After Old Ford got out of the car, he greeted them one by one. After exchanging pleasantries, they entered the Lord's Mansion.

As soon as he entered the hall, Miles, the housekeeper of the Lord's Mansion, greeted him: "My lords, please wait a moment. Dinner is being prepared and it will take a while."

Everyone sat down and waited in the hall, and Old Ford explained his intentions: "July 20th is the birthday of Earl Paul Greyman, and I, the Master Seal, have been sent here to invite his blood-sworn brother, Myron Garnard. The Earl is going to the birthday party."

The four nobles didn't answer after hearing this. After a period of silence, Viscount Abbott, a middle-aged man who could think of wine barrels when he saw his stomach, said: "We will give you a birthday present." Send it over, as for Lord Garnard..."

"Lord Garnard will go of course!" Director Angelo suddenly interjected loudly, this was a thin man with naked eyes.

He ignored the fleeting dissatisfaction in Baron Blau's eyes and the slightly puzzled gazes of the other two, and continued, "I'm sure the Earl must be very happy to receive the invitation from the blood-sworn brothers!"

Manager Ford said with a smile: "That's for sure. Although they are so close, the two haven't seen each other for several years."

"Alas!" Chief Angelo shook his head and sighed, "They could have met at the old Lord Graeman's funeral a few months ago. Unfortunately, Lord Garnard was not feeling well at the time. For his health, we did not Let him go, after all, the atmosphere at the funeral is not suitable for patients, so I have to go there instead of the count."

Manager Ford nodded in understanding: "This time they can have a good gathering. So, where is the Earl?"

"Oh, the Earl will be here soon."

Just as he was talking, he heard Butler Miles shout loudly: "Earl Garnard is here—"

A chubby blond boy entered the hall. He was about 16 years old and about the same height as Paul. He was the lord of Bairding and Paul's blood-sworn brother, Myron Garnard.

Manager Ford hurriedly got up to pay his respects, and while beckoning him to excuse himself, he walked to the first place to sit down, and then accepted the invitation card handed over by the manager with both hands.

"Mr. Baron, I haven't seen you for a long time." Said the lord of Bairding, opened the invitation and read it carefully, showing a very happy expression, then turned to Chief Angelo and asked: "Uncle Angelo, can I go Going to Paul's birthday party?"

Angelo immediately stood up and said, "Of course, my lord, no matter how busy you are with your studies and work, it's only natural to celebrate your blood-sworn brother's birthday."

"Since you have no objection, I haven't seen him for a long time, why don't we set off with Mr. Baron tomorrow."

Manager Ford also echoed: "I think it's good. It's always convenient to go on the road together." Even if McLone didn't say it, he would have brought it up.

Just as the potbellied Viscount Abt was about to speak out, Angelo said first, "Of course, so that the Count can stay with his friend for a few more days."

Old Ford secretly heaved a sigh of relief. It seemed that the trip went very smoothly. He had already prepared a lot of reasons in his stomach and asked Mellon to set off with him tomorrow.

The butler came to inform that dinner was ready~www.mtlnovel.com~ Everyone came to the restaurant for dinner. During the dinner, Myron kept pestering Old Ford to tell him about Arda's extermination of pirates, which made Old Ford smile bitterly. During the period, Old Ford asked why other vassals of Gardner gathered in Bujatu besides Chief Angelo, and the answer he received was that the troops directly under the Lord's Mansion were already under the command of Baron Andrew, the only vassal in Bairding who was familiar with the army. Then they rushed to the south and joined the princess Catherine to fight against the rebels. They brought their own private soldiers to protect the safety of their lord and maintain the law and order of the capital. As for the royal commissioner stationed in Bairding, everyone said that they went south with Baron Andrew, but they should come back soon.

After dinner, Old Ford was arranged to rest in the guest room. The four vassals of Ganard also bid farewell to Mellon and returned to their residences. However, after leaving the Lord's Mansion, they all went to Angelo's home.

"Are you crazy? Angelo! You just let that kid leave our control?" In a secret room, Abt asked Angelo angrily.

"Hmph!" An Qiluo gave him a look like an idiot, "What can I do? Don't let that kid celebrate his brother's birthday in front of Ford? The old guy can tell at a glance that something is abnormal. Come."

Abt gritted his teeth and looked at An Qiluo: "If something happens at that time, you have to... you have to take full responsibility."

Angelo was furious: "We are grasshoppers on a rope, and no one can escape if something happens. Now there are rumors in the market that we are going to be bad for Myron Gardner, and the old Gardner incident, Letting him go out for a walk will clear our suspicions."

Abt was still unconvinced, and argued violently with Angelo.

The remaining two looked at each other in blank dismay, they couldn't get in the way of the quarrel between the two viscounts.
