Chapter 514 Gift giving


    "Your Excellency, this is the tea I bought from Portugal. I heard that you like drinking tea. This is my tribute to you!"


    In a small living room, the decoration is luxurious and beautiful. Compared with those wealthy nobles, it is not inferior in any way, and even surpasses it.


    Even a few years ago, no one would have imagined that the residence of a cab minister would be so luxurious,parable to a royal pce.


    At this time, the Minister of Finance, dressed in ordinary clothes, was smiling all over his face, but his dark blue eyes were as in as water, as if the box of precious tea from the East in front of him was like ordinary leaves.


    "Mr. Dewey, you are very polite, but I cannot ept such a precious thing easily!"


    Anthony moved the green tea leaves in front of him forward, and pushed them to a middle-aged man with ck curly hair and a pot belly sitting opposite him, talking indifferently.


    The middle-aged man named Jared Dewey sat on a chair with a big belly, and smiled honestly:


    "How can it be! Your Excellency is very busy in the cab. As a member of the kingdom, I should respect and ask you for something. Besides, these are all from my heart!"


    "Whether it''s good intentions or filial piety, I can''t ept what is in front of me at will!"


    His Excellency Anthony ignored the words in front of him, but spoke calmly and firmly. For a moment, the power of the cab ministers was undoubtedly revealed.


    "Well, then I''m being rude!" The businessman with a big belly didn''t have a calm expression at this time, and he packed his things in a panic.


    "Your Excellency, if this is the case, then I will resign!" The businessman took a sneak peek at the Minister, and after seeing the evesting and stern expression of the Minister of Finance, he chose to leave with interest and embarrassment.


    But his arms were swollen at this time, and the heavyweight things had not been taken out yet.


    Your Excellency the Minister just picked up the cup, took a sip of the strong tea slowly, and showed an expression of enjoyment, as if nothing happened just now.


    The potbellied businessman walked out of the room unwillingly with the tea in his hand. Unexpectedly, he bumped into a man on the way.


    "Mr. Steward, why didn''t Your Excellency ept my things!" He put a few gold coins into his hands at the right time, walked aside, suppressed the dissatisfaction in his heart, and asked respectfully.


    "Mr. Dewey, to be honest, there are a lot of people operating positions recently, so it''s really inappropriate for you toe today!"


    The housekeeper showed a look of embarrassment, squinted at the surroundings, and then exined softly.


    "Recently, my master has been refusing anyone. You can only see him because of my request. From today''s perspective, his attitude has not changed!"


    At the end, the butler couldn''t help but sighed, filled with emotion.


    The businessman who has been aggrieved can only say a few beautiful words, and then reluctantly chooses to leave. Before leaving, he has to spend some money as afort fee, so don''t worry about it.


    The housekeeper, whose hair was gray but not disheveled, showed a disdainful smile after he left, straightened his back slightly, and walked slowly towards the living room.


    "Master, Baron Huntington is here to see you!" the butler looked at the minister who was still drinking tea, bowed respectfully, and said softly.


    "Oh? Since His Excellency the Baron is here, he is naturally wee. Invite him quickly!"


    Hearing that it was Baron Huntington, the Chancellor of the Exchequer showed a surprised expression and ordered softly.


    Baron Huntington, whose full name is Dio Jean Count, is a Frenchman.


    When His Majesty Edward first conquered Scond, he chose to lead most of the French army to surrender, and earned the gate of Edinburgh. He was named Baron Huntington and owned a manor of thousands of acres. and forests and mountains of varying numbers.


    And Baron Huntington, the wife of a knight in France, took all his property in France, and then divorced.


    Therefore, Baron Huntington, a golden bachelor in his twenties, has be a favorite among the English aristocrats.


    As a result, he married a baron''s daughter, obtained arge dowry, and expanded his property several times.


    And the Lord Baron''s vision is definitely not bad. Baron Huntington was reused by His Majesty the King, stationed in Irnd, and became the leader of the Irish army.


    It is estimated that during his stay in Irnd, the Baron suppressed many rebellious tribes and obtained countless properties andnds.


    It is said that there are three ranches with a total of 3,000 acres. They earn a lot of money every year, and their umted worth is even richer than those old earls.


    Soon, Your Excellency the Minister came out to greet him personally. Your Excellency the Baron has brown wavy hair and brown eyes. Under the conditions of many years of marching, hisplexion is rough, like a farmer, but the aristocratic temperament is still longsting. , the eyes are also extraordinarily sharp.


    "I hope you don''t take the liberty ofing here this time!" The baron, who was a head taller than the chancellor, greeted politely.


    "Where, it''s my honor to have the Barone here!" With a smile on his face, Anthony led Baron Dio into the study.


    Afterwards, after some polite conversation among the nobles, the two of them finally got to the topic.


    "Your Excellency, this is a 500-acre ranch in Irnd!"


    Baron Dio took out a title deed and ced it in front of Anthony.


    "This is?" Anthony looked at him strangely.


    "I hope to be able to return to London!" Baron Dio looked straight at the Chancellor of the Exchequer and exined softly.


    "It''s very difficult!" Anthony shook his head and denied.


    Back to London, the only suitable position for him is the ministers of various ministries. Although he is the new cab prime minister, he still cannot let the French who surrendered for only a few years be cab ministers.


    "Then, I hope that my father-inw, Baron Ferraul, will be the Sheriff!"


    Baron Dio showed no sign of discouragement but took a step back, softly narrating his request.


    "Yes—" After thinking for a moment, His Excellency Anthony nodded slightly, looked at Baron Dio''s calm face, and agreed.


    With the election of the prime minister and the cabing to an end, the next ones must be county officials from all over the country, and a small county sheriff will not have much discussion for a baron.


    Afterwards, Baron Dio and Anthony left the mansion talking andughing.


    In the blink of an eye, Jared Dewey boarded the carriage, and Jared Dewey, who had just left not long ago, now sat in the carriage with a humble face, weing the arrival of the baron.


    "Mr. Dewey, I can''t get you a post of director!"


    As a well-known businessman in London, Jared Dewey can''t hide his nobleman''s position when he seeks the post of minister.


    Baron Dio sat in the carriage, looked at the businessman with a big belly, and said with a half-smile.


    "This is five shops in London and a vi. My lord, I''m just asking for a councilor position."


    These things add up to about 2,000 pounds, which is really a big deal! The merchants of London were really rich.


    Baron Dio looked at the cloth merchant in front of him, and took out a fewnd deeds from his pocket, but the pockets were still bulging, and he couldn''t help but sigh in his heart.


    "Of course, you will be a member of the Supreme United Council from now on!"


    Each nobleman can rmend a member of parliament to His Majesty for review, and a local important minister like him will naturally be 100% approved by His Majesty.


    And it just so happens that these things let him pay back some of his money.
