Pritz Harbour, Citrus Street.

The afternoon sun shone through the window, the gray fog and crimson in his eyes faded, and Alvin found himself standing by the desk, no different from before.

A little white light, like a twinkling star, melted into the palm of the right hand holding the pen, and then quickly faded until it disappeared, as if shrinking into flesh and blood.

Alvin smiled and looked at the white paper on the table. There were already a few drops of ink. He put down the pen and prepared to change it.

Yuumi on the table glanced at Alvin suspiciously, yawned, turned over and slept in the afternoon sun again.

He gained a lot from the Tarot Club this time. Although he didn't know that the civil service exam would not help him now, he had a hunch that he would definitely be able to use it in the future.

And decided to put down the Confucian classics in the afternoon. Learn the basics of occultism given by the Hanged Man first.

He took out a piece of tawny sheepskin, picked up a quill, and prepared to write a letter to lawyer Benoy last night. He first thanked the lawyer for his help last night, and said that he would come to visit from 9:00 to 10:00 tomorrow morning, with some entrustment. need his help.

Put the letter in the envelope, affixed the stamp, got up and called Yuumi to take care of him. The little guy didn't lift his head, just flicked his tail and continued to enjoy the afternoon sun.

Alvin shook his head, walked to the coat rack, put on a thin trench coat, and went out to the nearest mailbox.

Tingen, 2 Daffodil Street.

Klein sat on the high-backed chair at the head of the long bronze table, with his arms resting on the armrests, his fingers crossed his eyes, and he surveyed the boundless gray fog calmly.

Today's harvest is not small, I have learned a lot of news, and I have earned 20 pounds. Although I can only get it next week, I will go out and apply for an anonymous bank card number.

Flickered to a new member, still a "compatriot".

His last sentence "the imperial examination" revealed a lot of things.

He unfolded his spirituality, sensed the existence of his body, and then began to imitate the heaviness of the rapid fall.

Backlund, Queens.

Audrey Hall, sitting in front of the dresser, holding a pen inlaid with gems, writing these things on the delicate parchment.

In the basement where there was only a flicker of candlelight, Alger Wilson raised his palm and looked carefully.

After a long time, he sighed:

"It's still so magical, I can't grasp the details at all...

Picking up the parchment scroll on the table, there was a line of Hermes written in dark blue ink:

"7, navigator."

July 3, Tuesday.

The next morning, Alvin put away the revolver, brought Yuumi, a brown leather case, and bought a bottle of well-packaged white wine at the store next to him.

Feeling the vague gaze behind him, at the intersection of Citrus Street, he got into a taxi.

Greet the driver to go to the Rose District, in the direction of Seagull Street.

Arriving at the door of Lawyer Benoy's house, Alvin tidied up his clothes a little and glanced at it without leaving a trace. The carriage driving behind him stopped on the steps of Lawyer Benoy's house, and reached out and knocked on the door.

There was a noise in the house, and the door opened after a while, and the person who opened the door was a short, Mediterranean lawyer Benoy.

"Good noon, lawyer Benoy." Alvin gave a gentleman's salute.

"Good noon, Alvin, you are welcome, please come in." Lawyer Benoy glanced at Alvin's clothes in surprise, and invited Alvin into the room with a smile.

"Coffee? Or black tea."

In the living room on the first floor, Alvin was invited to sit down on the sofa, and lawyer Benoy asked.

"Black tea, thank you." Alvin smiled and nodded in response.

"Well, a good choice. Although many people like the strong aroma of coffee, my family and I still prefer black tea, but you may have to wait a while." After speaking, he walked towards the kitchen with a smile.

"It doesn't matter, all the beautiful things I think are worth waiting for." Alvin smiled and nodded.

He looked at Lawyer Benoy's home. It was an ordinary open-plan layout, with no partition between the dining room and the living room.

From some of the arrangement and decoration of the home, it can be seen that the Benoy family is still very simple and does not pursue excessive decency.

After a while, he smelled the fragrance from the kitchen, and saw lawyer Benoy coming over with a cup of black tea, a very ordinary white porcelain cup.

"Tast it, Xibo black tea."

Alvin took it and took a sip, moderately sweet and sour.

"Very pure black tea." He praised with an infallible description.

"Haha, if my wife was at home, she would definitely like your compliment, but it's a pity she didn't get a rest." Lawyer Benoy said with a smile.

"No, I told you too late. In fact, I came today to entrust you with something."

Alvin shook his head, indicating that it was okay, then picked up the suitcase beside his hands and feet.

"Of course, I received your letter yesterday afternoon, and that's what I'm waiting for." Lawyer Benoy sat opposite Alvin and glanced at Yuumi, who was confused on Alvin's shoulder, and looked at Pi box said.

No nonsense, Alvin is opening the suitcase and taking out a model from it. If Klein is here, he will definitely recognize the "rickshaw".

"this is?"

Seeing Alvin take out a model of a two-wheeler, he was puzzled and said.

"Rickshaw." Alvin described the function of the car in detail.

"This kind of car can enter those alleys that cannot be reached by horse-drawn carriages, and some narrow roads send people to the door. The only disadvantage is that it can only run short distances."

He excitedly introduced the various conveniences of the car to Lawyer Benoy. He stopped to pick up the cup, but saw Lawyer Benoy frown slightly.

"What's the matter? Is there any problem?"

Alvin put down the cup and asked in doubt, knowing that this kind of rickshaw is still very "money", he didn't believe that lawyer Benoy couldn't see it.

"It's nothing, I can see the value of this rickshaw." Attorney Benoy pointed to the "rickshaw" model on the table and said.

"I just don't think it will be very decent. You don't know anyone who can lower their status and become a horse for others. You know what I mean!"

Lawyer Benoy looked at Alvin and expressed his concerns.

"Well, I've thought about this. Although this kind of work is not decent enough, at least it can support a family, isn't it, it's decent compared to not having enough to eat..."

Alvin smiled and looked at lawyer Benoy.

Thinking of those children down the street, their arms and pushers were not even thicker than some wooden sticks, and I sighed in my heart.

"This job, at least, won't let their family members die because of the working environment full of poisonous gas and dust. I think those people should know how to choose."

Alvin said in a heavy tone.

"Yes, maybe you are right." Lawyer Benoy said slowly after being silent for a while.

"What about his consumer group? You know, some gentlemen would rather walk a little longer to take a public carriage for the sake of dignity." Lawyer Benoy changed the subject when he saw that the atmosphere was a little heavy.

"I'm one of those middle-class people, and if the charges are the same, then the rickshaw has an advantage over the stagecoach, and I think once the rickshaw is on the streets, it will soon be appreciated."

Alvin looked at lawyer Benoy and said confidently.

After thinking about it, he said, "Even if there is a new means of transportation in the future, it can also cooperate with some scenic spots and large tourist places. I think many people will like this kind of car in scenic spots."

Hearing Alvin's last idea, Lawyer Benoy also nodded, feeling that this direction is very good.

"But as a friend, I still need to remind you that when this kind of rickshaw appears on the market, it may be criticized by some newspapers. Some people you know always like to stand and criticize others from a certain angle."

Lawyer Benoy shook his head with a smile and said helplessly.

"Hehe, if those people can spend their time on improving the working environment of workers, maybe the workers in those factories have already put on dust masks."

Thinking of those hypocrites who always like to stand on the highest moral point, Alvin sneered.

"Well, it looks like you already have a plan, what do you need me to do?" Lawyer Benoy said.

Alvin took out the "Tusok Newspaper", pointed to a piece of news, and stated the purpose of his trip.

An investor named Franmy Cage, who has his own factory, recently collected some interesting inventions in the newspaper for investment~www.novelbuddy.com~ He hopes that lawyer Benoy will take his invention to Baker Rand, negotiate something accordingly.

"Yes, but I can't guarantee that it will be done. You know there are always surprises in this kind of thing." Lawyer Benoy agreed after thinking for a while.

"Well, I know, this is the cost of this business trip." After Alvin finished speaking, he took out two 5-pound bills from the inner pocket of his trench coat.

"If the transaction is successful, I will charge 5% of the successful transaction amount. If it is unsuccessful, you only need to pay the 5 pounds fee. I will show a receipt for this travel fee, and the unused part will be refunded to you. "

Seeing lawyer Benoy's serious look, Alvin nodded to show his understanding.

"Now you need to know your bottom line on this matter and some of your own thoughts." Looking at the model on the table, he said to Alvin.

Alvin knew that this rickshaw could not be patented. This is just some changes in the original technology. It is not realistic to have a patent. He just wants to sell the idea directly to the other party.

Attorney Benoy feels that it is a pity to sell directly. Accepting the investment of the other party and getting a certain amount of shares is the most cost-effective choice.

But seeing Alvin's firm attitude, he didn't try to persuade them, and the two discussed some details.

"I can't leave until tomorrow. I need to say goodbye to my family at night, and we need to sign an entrustment agreement. If the matter is successful, I will send you a telegram. You will need to go to Backlund in person at that time."

After everything was negotiated, lawyer Benoy said.

"certainly."

Alvin nodded in understanding.

After the contract was signed, he refused lawyer Benoy's lunch invitation on the grounds that he had something to do, and left the Rose District with Yuumi.
