Edward once watched an appraisal program in his previous life. One of the guys took out a big diamond ring and asked the expert for the price, saying: This is the ring I proposed to my ex-girlfriend, because I wanted to sell it because I couldn’t make a proposal. Lose. When you meet the right person in the future, buy a new one for him. Experts say: If you buy a diamond ring and then sell it, you have to get a 40% discount, which is not cost-effective. You might as well keep it, when the time comes, send it out, who knows if you don’t say?

Edward was so convinced at the time, and praised the expert's wit. But... But what if you say it? Now the question is, Edward, who has had a "slim" relationship in his previous life, does not have this experience, is he considered a scumbag? What should I do now? Waiting online is anxious!

I saw Princess squinted her emerald eyes, stared at Edward, took a deep breath and asked:

"Monica? Do you want to put the ring Is it for Monica? Because she has a space ring, she didn't send it out?"

"I..." Edward tilted his head to one side, not daring to touch Princess's sight.

"Also, you just said that you are "not short of money". What about the 1,000 gold you sold the sword? Is it also given to Monica? You don't want to think about it, it can be used Will the people of the priceless space ring lack your money?"

"I...I have no other thoughts, but I am afraid she is a girl, alone..." Edward touched Said the nose.

"Fool! Who cares about your broken ring..."

Princess threw the space ring to Edward angrily, turned around and slammed the door and went out.

Leave the young alchemist stunned. Just when he wanted to chase out and say something. I saw Princess push the door back angrily.

The suddenly opened door almost hit his nose, and the violent wind made the tip of his nose hurt.

Andrea snatched the ring from Edward's hand and shouted:

"My armor is still in the ring!"

Then he turned around and walked away. After taking two steps, he turned around and cursed:

"You are a fool! Big fool!"

He left without looking back. Before leaving, he pulled up Alice, who was playing Zhenghuan. With squinting eyes, the priest held the prism in his hand and looked at Edward who was stunned at the door of the guest room, and then looked at the back of Princess who had left with angrily, feeling that he had missed something "big melon"...

Time flies quickly. A few days have passed. This is the last day of the year. People in this world, like Edward's previous life, must hold a grand celebration on the last day of each year to celebrate the passing of the old year and the arrival of the new year. The southern rainforest country and several surrounding countries will also hold a grand carnival, which lasts for a whole week. It is said that there are so many children born in September and October in those countries...

the past few days Edward did not dare to go to Princess, and Andrea did not return the space ring. In addition to going to the magic tower once to perform routine maintenance of the magic array, Edward was to tinker with his so-called "surprise".

The borrowed soldiers have been given a so-called "secret training" by Edward, and they are preparing to give the residents of the city a big surprise at the fountain square at midnight today.

Mr. Chief Steward Hunter of the Middle Ducal Mansion has been here several times. I ordered a batch of Edward's so-called super energy-saving magic lights. In fact, saving energy is not important to the Duke's Mansion. They have redstone mines at home. The key is that Edward's magic lamp has no other benefits, but one advantage is that it is cheap!

Seeing Hunter butler throwing hundreds of gold to buy thousands of magic light bulbs from him, it is said that he will light up the entire Ducal Palace on New Year's Eve. Edward felt that he had set a low price for the magic lamp.

In order to complete the order, Edward worked hard for two days without white or black.

Edward declined Harry, who came to ask him to have a New Year's dinner with him this afternoon. In the evening, put on a saphire blue embroidered gold-rimmed gown brought back from Ailand. This dress is a bit like a double-breasted suit from his previous life. The big buttons are gilded, very conspicuous. He didn't tie his tie, but instead tied his'slightly heavy' black bow tie. The alchemist pocket watch was put into his left coat pocket, and the chain was hung out of the pocket. Looking down at the polished pair of shiny leather shoes, and then looking up at his shiny back in the full-length mirror, he laughed and felt that this smile was not inferior to the beauty of "Li Boy", so he put on a top hat and wore The dark windbreaker went out.

After going out, he found that the street showed a different weather from the past, from Flower Street to Fountain Square on both sides of the road turned into a huge open-air bazaar. There are various fruits and vegetables shipped from the south. There are also various frozen hard meats. There are also clothes, shoes, hats, pots and pans, and small crafts.

Pedestrians on the street to-and-fro, shopping for all kinds of goods. People's clothing has also changed, from the usual black, white and gray colors to colorful and bright colors. The big girls and little wives who usually don’t go out often walked out to the street in a glamorous fashion, shopping for their favorite products...

Looking at the streets where people coming, people going, the memories and previous childhood memories of this life The overlap of life memory makes people feel a sense of trance as if passing through time and space. He shook the head and walked towards the Ducal Palace in the crowd.

When he walked to the fountain square, he suddenly noticed a familiar silhouette in front of him. He walked a few steps, squeezed through the crowd and looked around, but found nothing. He said to himself:

"It may be my illusion, he is impossible to appear in the new continent."

Then he stopped struggling and went straight to the Duke’s Mansion.

At this time, among the guards on duty at the gate of the Ducal Palace, a young man who had gone to the alchemy shop to send him a letter came out, bowed to him, and said:

"Master Smith, didn't expect you to come so early. Most guests come at night. At that time, Chief Steward Mr. Hunter will personally greet all the distinguished guests in front of the house, or I will show you to the living room first. Sit down, I'll tell Mr. Hunter?"

"Thank you, can I go to the guard lounge first to see how they are preparing?" Edward said.

"Okay, I will show you to the guard lounge." Then he turned around and ordered another youngster to notify the butler. It seems that he is still a little boss.

Edward followed the man to visit the team of soldiers lent to him. These soldiers are now nervously packing up the "props" made by Edward. Edward nodded satisfied, and ordered a few more words. Follow the soldiers to the living room in the ducal mansion.

In the middle, Edward also looked at the whole view of the courtyard of the Duke's Mansion with great interest. This ducal mansion occupies about thirty or forty acres. The four sides are surrounded by high walls, and the four corners are towers for warning. Of course, the taller one in the northwest corner has become a magic tower. This architectural style reminds Edward of prisons in his previous life. It's just that the prisons of the previous life kept people inside, and these castle-like mansions were used to keep people out. It seems that many castles in the previous life are also in this shape. No wonder you can become a prison after you change it. The most famous one is the "Bastille".

Some of the houses built on the walls in the Ducal Palace are barracks for soldiers, and some dormitories for servants. There is also a larger stable at the root of the east wall. Many trees and shrubs that are evergreen in winter are planted in the middle of the yard, which are carefully trimmed by gardeners to form various regular shapes.

The main building of this mansion is where the Grand Duke's family lived. There is a high spire tower in the middle, it is a 5-Layer structure, on both sides are symmetrical three-story buildings with inclined roofs, and it is estimated that there are hundreds of rooms. Edward can't help but sigh the luxury and depravity of the feudal lord's house...

Enter the main hall of the ducal mansion. At this time, the main hall is gold and jade in glorious splendor, brightly lit. Let Edward think that he is in the palace of Ekaterina in the documentary of his previous life. The servants are still busy preparing and placing all the necessary utensils. Standing in the middle of the hall stairs, Mr. Hunter was directing the servants to move things busy.

Mr. Hunter looked about fifty or so years old, and his gray hair was combed back neatly with wax. The neatly manicured Bazi Hu looks a little stiff. He is wearing a white shirt, a black vest, and a small black bow tie on his collar.

Edward turned to look at the waiters around, they all dressed the same, subconsciously touched the bow tie around his neck, wondering if he should change his tie?

Mr. Hunter saw Edward's arrival, and happily walked to him and greeted him warmly:

"Oh, Mister Smith, you came so early, just in time Come and witness this historical moment. Your great invention will be recorded in the annals of history. And our Ducal Mansion will also become the first brightly lit residence of the new continent."

"Mr. Hunter, You are really overpraised. This is just a small application of alchemy. It is still the grand duke Your Majesty and your bright vision like a torch, with amazing courage." Edward said unnutritious things, and said that he would suffer. I always act in a low-key manner, so why have I forgotten this? If there is such a big show, how much attention will I attract! Edward twitched his lips in his heart.

"You came so early to see Her Highness the Princess first, right? But unfortunately, Her Highness the Princess is preparing for the dinner and can’t come out now. Why don’t you take you to the Princess? Take a break in the lounge, there is still a while before the dinner party begins." Hunter said.

"Then trouble Mr. Hunter." Edward also felt it was early. The hall was busy at this time, and he seemed a bit redundant.

As he passed by the side of the stairs in the hall, he saw a group of musicians holding various instruments. Then he asked:

"Mr. Hunter, why is there a concert tonight?"

"Don't you know? Oh, look at my memory, you are the first I attended a dinner at the Duke’s Mansion. After the dinner tonight is the New Year’s Ball. Everyone has to dance until the new year!"

"Oh." Edward said in his heart that there would be nothing wrong with me. , I don’t know how to dance.

But at this time, Mr. Hunter suddenly approached him and said in a low voice:

"Do you know what is special about the dance this year?"

"I don't know, what's special?" Edward gave a timely applause.

"This is Her Highness the Princess’s first dance in adulthood. Young Toshihiko from all over the country and several surrounding countries are said to be attending. Guess who can invite Her Highness the Princess this year Do the first dance?"
