The Shadow of The Beginning

Chapter 168: Prime Minister and Drama

Views:

Frederick took some time out today to come to Eugene's house, bringing a fruit basket as a gift for his visit.

He rang the doorbell and Baird answered and opened the door.

"Good day, Butler Baird, I wonder if Mrs. Kirk is free now?"

Frederick asked.

“Oh, Mrs. Kirk has just put the baby to bed, Mr. Frederick.

Or you can come sit in the banquet room first, and I will go up to inform Mrs. Kirk."

Baird opened the door and made way for Frederick to enter.

"These are some small gifts, fruits imported from Japan. I hope you can pass them on to the head of the family."

Frederick handed the fruit basket in his hand to Baird and said.

"No problem, Mr. Frederick. Baird would like to thank the Einstar family for your generosity."

Baird responded.

After bringing Frederick into the banquet room, Baird ordered tea to be served and then knocked on the door of Eugene's study.

Herman and Eugene were in their study discussing sponsoring a local parish school in the name of the Pittsburgh Electric Company.

The profits from that piece of black gold land were simply too high, and the business granted by the city hall also brought good returns.

Herman and Eugene had already decided to donate the proceeds to give back to society, and this plan will be implemented tomorrow, and they are now making final adjustments.

"Mr. Hermann, Mr. Friedrich from the Munich Concert Hall is here to visit your wife, and Bairdet has come to inform you."

Baird pushed open the door and came over to remind him.

In this society, many people will pretend to be righteous and take advantage of the opportunity of doing serious things to flirt with other women.

As a butler, Baird could naturally obtain the romantic anecdotes of Mrs. So-and-so and Mr. So-and-so from various channels.

Herman showed a surprised expression after hearing this.

"Ha, what a good day today is. Two distinguished guests have come in a row. Brother, you go ahead and do your work. I'll go call Kirk to go down and meet them."

Eugene waved his hand and said helplessly,

"Go ahead, I'll make the arrangements myself. Remember to say hello to Mr. Frederick for me."

Then Hermann came to Kirk's bedroom. He quietly hugged the beauty in front of him from behind.

"Hey, guess who's here again?" Herman said in Kirk's ear.

"Shh, keep your voice down. The child has just fallen asleep. If we wake him up, we'll have to coax him for a long time. Let's talk outside."

Kirk smoothed his hair behind his ears and rolled his eyes at Herman.

"Okay, I'll listen to you." Hermann released his arms and pulled Kirk, who was sitting on the edge of the crib.

The two of them left and quietly closed the door.

Kirk said with some worry,

“I don’t know what’s wrong with Albert today. He has been silent since Alphis came.

You know, he usually keeps mumbling and practicing his vocalizations."

"Oh, maybe the child is just shy. It shouldn't be a big problem."

Hermann consoled.

"By the way, you just mentioned that someone came to visit again?"

Kirk asked, raising an eyebrow.

"Oh, yes, that's Mr. Frederick from the Music Hall."

Hermann said happily.

Although there was an unexpected incident with the French chef at the last banquet, Hermann still had a good impression of the eloquent Mr. Frederick.

"Okay, let's go. Luckily we haven't changed back into casual clothes yet, otherwise we would have to change into another set."

Kirk said with a smile.

The two men walked downstairs arm in arm, while Frederick was looking seriously at the vase in the dining room.

"Good day, Mr. Frederick. Why did you come to visit so suddenly? We didn't have time to prepare a meal for you."

Hermann said to Frederick after he opened the door.

"I am sorry for being so abrupt, but I just couldn't help but come and inform Mrs. Kirk. Our grand Munihei concert will start next Friday, and I want to arrange for Mrs. Kirk to perform publicly at the eighth position."

Frederick looked up and said to the two of them.

"That's great news, dear. You have a chance to perform on stage."

Hermann clapped his hands happily and said.

“All the participants this time are famous musicians, and I believe that Mrs. Kirk’s ability is sufficient for the eighth position.

Also, here are four VIP tickets to the Munihei Festival.

The ticket allows multiple entry into the festival over the three consecutive days, and there will be reserved seats in the front row. "

Frederick said.

"Oh, that's very thoughtful of you, Mr. Frederick. How much are these tickets?"

Hermann asked.

"No, no, no, these are tickets reserved for the performing guests. You don't need to pay for them."

Frederick said, shaking his head.

"I heard that there will be many special guests at this music festival. Who are the invited guests from?"

Kirk asked curiously.

“In addition to the great writer Nietzsche, we also invited the currently highly regarded physicist Planck.

I believe that during the music festival, Munich will not only have a strong artistic atmosphere, but will also become a focus of the academic community.

At the same time, the Iron Chancellor Bismarck seems to be interested in our music festival and may spare one or two days of free time to come."

Frederick replied.

"Oh my God, leaving aside Master Nietzsche and Mr. Planck, the appearance of Chancellor Bismarck was totally unexpected."

Herman said exaggeratedly.

"Of course, the Iron-blooded Prime Minister is a legendary figure. But to be honest, the valuables in your mansion are really enviable. If I hadn't seen it, this should be the finest bone china from Zhongyuan."

Frederick said thoughtfully.

"I'm not too sure about this. This was arranged by Butler Baird."

Hermann spread his hands and said.

"Kechlov? Stop staring. It's almost too late!"

Effie said anxiously.

"Okay, okay, I'll be right there. Wait till I get dressed."

Ketchlov's voice came from the bedroom.

The two of them made an appointment today to go backstage at the concert hall to watch a performance.

Ever since Ketchlov mentioned last time that he could bring Effie backstage, Effie has liked this sneaky yet somewhat thrilling feeling.

Effie doesn't want to miss any wonderful performances recently.

The last time Effie watched the play "Romeo and Juliet", she accidentally invested her emotions into it and burst into tears.

At that time, Ketchev held Effie in his arms and let the poor and helpless Effie lean on his chest and cry.

At that time, Ketchev silently swore in his heart that he would never let this lovely and innocent girl cry again.
