Chapter 73
"Have you ever heard of 'perfume'?"

"Perfume? What is it? Fragrant water?"

"Uh~ this is really vulgar, but it probably means the same thing."

"Don't be a fool, what's going on?"

"Actually, I don't really know. It's just that our wife and her friends are talking about something that can drive any woman crazy."

……

"Do you know 'perfume'?"

"Perfume? Such a familiar name. Ah, that's right! I just heard Miss Kaiqi mention it this morning. It is said that it can make women exude a more charming and seductive aura, giggling! It's too embarrassing."

"I heard that it was carefully developed by the young genius Mr. Anthony Bruce, and was given to Viscount Bain by the patriarch of the Hilton family as a gift."

"Oh~ is it the masterpiece of the mysterious Mr. Anthony? I adore him so much. It would be great if I could have a bottle of perfume made by him."

"Don't dream, Viscountess Bain is showing off everywhere, there is only such a bottle in the whole world."

"Oh, that's a pity."

……

"Have you ever heard of 'perfume'?"

"Cut~ nonsense! There is still a noble lady or lady who doesn't know about perfume. The Viscountess of Bain announced it publicly to the whole world. It doesn't matter if you want to know."

"However, I heard that Hilton's patriarch actually gave Viscount Bain two bottles of perfume, and the other bottle was given to the Viscount's lover."

"Huh? The Viscountess also said..."

"Of course I kept it from her. It wouldn't be a problem at all. That noble lord doesn't have a lover outside, but it's just hidden well. I don't know that the Viscountess will show it off everywhere, and the charm of the perfume is so irresistible. The viscount's lover held such a treasure in his hand, how could he bear it and just hide at home to admire it, so the second bottle of perfume was exposed."

"Then Viscount Bain is having a headache now?"

"It should be, hahahaha~"

……

Viscount Bain really has a headache now.

When he gave two bottles of exquisitely packaged and well-crafted perfume to his wife and the little fairy respectively, he never expected that the charm of these two bottles of "work of the game" would be so great.

The whole city of Edinburgh, whether it is the noble ladies and ladies of the nobility, or the shrewd women in the market, are all talking about this "perfume" enthusiastically.So the two closest women of Lord Viscount, who both held a bottle of perfume in their hands, appeared abruptly like two dazzling stars in front of the citizens of the city.

The backyard suddenly caught fire, leaving Viscount Bain in a state of distress.

His wife, who was always elegant and graceful, unexpectedly reacted violently this time.It's not because Lord Viscount has a little lover outside, but because her husband actually gave away one of the two rare treasures.Not only did she lose a chance to monopolize the limelight, but it also became a joke in the aristocratic circle.

But Viscount Bain has no time to put out the fire now, because this is just a small trouble.There is a bigger trouble waiting for him.

Earl Silvio's open visit last time did not achieve any results in the end, and it seemed to return without success.But in fact, both parties in the meeting knew very well that the effect had been achieved since the earl entered the door.

The only difference is that this is the result that the Hilton family wanted, but not what Viscount Bain wanted.

Viscount Bain was cautious, trying to avoid this meeting that would inevitably be discovered by the noble alliance, leading to more unfavorable conjectures.Who knew that after all the calculations, he would fall down in front of those two inconspicuous gadgets, the "game work" of that young genius.

How dare you, Viscount Bain, say that you have no affair with the Hilton family?
Now it's yellow mud falling into the crotch, it's either shit or shit.

Is that boy named Anthony really so amazing?Any action can make the opponent passive and uncomfortable, unable to parry?Or is it that the old fox, the patriarch Hilton, is scheming and calculated early on.

Whether it was planned or not, under the current circumstances, if the Hilton family didn't know how to take advantage of the momentum to withdraw from the "perfume" product, it would have been bombarded by the old nobles to the scum.

The so-called hero sees the same thing. Although Viscount Bain is very unwilling to be this "hero", things still happened as he guessed.

"The Hilton family is about to launch their newest product: fragrance!"

"The price of the perfume is only 500 taels of silver! Only 500 taels of silver! Only 500 taels of silver, and you can take home the perfume that is so popular among the noble ladies and wives of the entire city of Edinburgh!"

"The first batch of perfumes is limited. Ladies and gentlemen who want to buy, act now!"

All of a sudden, the streets, alleys, taverns and restaurants in Edinburgh City were filled with advertisements about the Hilton family's perfume.

At this time, if you don't know what "perfume" is, you will definitely be despised by everyone, and you will not be able to hold your head up.

And almost all the women in the city, as Earl Silvio joked, from the age of 8 to 80, are all flocking to perfume.

The two women of Viscount Bain have been in the limelight these days, and the charming faint fragrance of the perfume has made all the noble women who have come into contact with them full of envy and hatred.

Well now, the Hilton family has finally put the perfume on the shelves, and everyone can enjoy the elegant fragrance in the future, and no longer let those two women focus on their beauty.

So, on the day when the perfume was released, Hilton was located in front of the most central and bustling shop in Edinburgh, and a long queue of people had formed early on.

500 taels of silver is equivalent to the total annual income of a middle-class family in Edinburgh.Excluding the necessary expenses, you have to save for at least three to five years before you can afford a bottle of perfume.This price is really not low.

It can be said that those who are eligible to line up here are already proof of wealth and status.

Of course, this does not refer to the servants who are sweating profusely and standing in line with limp legs, but the adults behind them.

Aristocrats should have the demeanor and dignity of aristocrats. How decent is it to line up with a lot of people here!

But no matter how graceful and reserved, the charm of perfume is really irresistible.Even though they couldn't save their face and lined up in person, the ladies and ladies still sat in twos and threes on the carriage, in the tea room next to it, or under the shade of the big tree, waiting anxiously and expectantly.

The Hilton family didn't keep everyone waiting too long. After a grand and simple launch ceremony in front of the gorgeously decorated and festive store, finally, the perfume was officially launched.

"...Due to the delicate and complicated production process, we don't have many stocks in stock. The first batch of perfume released this time is only 10 bottles..."

The host next to him was still chattering about making introductions, but everyone was no longer in the mood to listen to him, and all focused their attention on the beautifully packaged and luxurious boxes displayed at the front desk.

But when they heard that there were only 10 bottles of perfume, the crowd immediately made a huge noise, as if the entire city of Edinburgh shook accordingly.

The first one in line was a young man, who had been ordered by his master a long time ago. He took out a stack of large banknotes that made him jealous, and shouted: "This is 5000 taels of silver. I want all 10 bottles of perfume." !"

The pretty girl in charge of the reception said politely and apologetically, "I'm sorry, according to the rule set by our patriarch himself, one customer can only buy one bottle."

The young man was in a hurry, and asked with a stiff neck, "Why can I only buy one bottle? I have bank notes and I can't buy it? How can you do business like this?"

Before the pretty girl at the reception could reply, the people behind the young man shouted in dissatisfaction: "Didn't you hear that this is a rule set by the head of the family? If you want to buy it, hurry up, and if you don't buy it, get out of here. Is it just your master?" Got a bank ticket? I still want to pay for it all by myself. Is this for me to go back and suffer the master's whip?"

The young man turned back hastily.

Followed by a man with a thick face, also waving a large silver bill in his hand.The people at the end also booed and expressed anger at his behavior.

The young man quickly turned around, paid the money, took an exquisite box from the reception girl, and hurried away with his head down.

Public anger is hard to commit.Anyway, I bought the perfume, so I should withdraw it quickly.Although the number did not meet the requirements of the master, it was the rule of the head of the family, and there was nothing he could do about it.It's better than being blasted out by the angry crowd behind, and going back empty-handed, I really can't explain it.
