Chapter 346 The Guy Who Walks with the Wind and Drags Him to the Sky

"Sir, there is no servant or entourage in the manor house, and the age is below 40 years old. It feels like the Earl of Gosford himself is guarding against Miss Isabel's accident.

According to the rules of the big house, Miss Isabel must go to the restaurant for dinner in the morning.

At that time, in addition to the personal maid, the housekeeper Wilson and another maid will help clean up the room.

If there was a problem, it was hard to escape the eyes, or even the nose, of the housekeeper and other maids. "

Li Changheng smiled and nodded, "I see."

Then I planned to let Hart protect Mountbatten, but after thinking about it, I felt it was inappropriate.

Fortunately for Andrew, Li Changheng could easily keep him in the living room.

Difficult old Mountbatten.

But Li Changheng was not sure whether Mountbatten would take a tacit attitude even if he did not participate.

After a while he shook his head in his heart again.

The old man has reached such a position, it is impossible to stay here in danger.

This is totally unreasonable.

But Li Changheng soon realized that Mountbatten was not an ordinary person.

Before he was conspired to kill him, he had actually received several reminders from Good Scotland Yard, even very straightforward warnings.

Let him leave the holiday castle close to Northern Ireland and return to London or the interior of England.

But the old man never took it seriously.

Moreover, this old man has experienced several real giant ship confrontations, and once his own ship was directly bombed and sunk.

Of the more than 300 people on board, only 36 survived.

People who have this kind of experience, either care more about their own lives, or take danger as fun and challenge.

Since Hart was asked to protect him, besides arousing his suspicion, it was also difficult to let him go, so he simply used the name of protection to stare at him secretly.

He whispered to Hart, "You just stay in the living room and watch Mountbatten secretly. After all, old Gosford got his ear scratched by a stray bullet today. You should be careful."

Hart frowned suddenly, "SIR, do you need me to call for backup, or should we just leave?

Also, in addition to protecting the royal family, Kingsman is also responsible for protecting the nobles. "

Li Changheng thought for a moment, then said, "Do you have evidence?"

Hart couldn't help but fell silent.

"Without evidence, what name is used to enter the manor house?"

Hart looked at Li Changheng with a puzzled expression, and then said very seriously, "I have to report this to His Majesty Philip."

Li Changheng smiled, "No problem, if he has any orders, remember to tell me."

Then he asked, "Among Gosford's servants and the entourage of the guests, is there anyone who makes you feel special?"

Hart shook his head after thinking about it, but he frowned again after a while.

"The entourage of the Countess's two brothers-in-law happened to be a pair of brothers. When they first saw them, they were dressed in suits and leather shoes, their hair was combed meticulously, and the younger brother had eyes. They looked like noble entourages like me.

But I always feel that the younger brother named Reggie Clay has some mental problems.

As for the brother named Ron Clay, thinking about it now, he feels that under his smooth and enthusiastic surface, he should be snooping on the manor's information.

Before, because of their occupations, Lorraine and I could see that they should have practiced boxing, but we looked down upon them after not discovering that they had guns on them. "

Brother Kray?

Li Changheng wondered in his heart, could it be Tom Hardy who walks with wind?

If it is really their brothers, think about it carefully, it seems that they just stopped boxing at this time and changed to gangsters.

"Go and call His Majesty Philip."

Li Changheng patted Hart on the shoulder, thinking about personally confirming the guy who dragged him to the sky, and it was also time to meet the servants of the manor.

Maybe you can find something from them, or from their mouths.

Walked to the butler Condra and said.

"I want to meet today's chef, thank him for his cooking skills, and also want to know if the red velvet cake is an exclusive recipe.

If yes, what do I have to pay to get the recipe. "

"this,,."

The butler Condela looked at the boyfriend of Princess Anne in surprise. This was the first time he heard such a request from a guest.

However, since he said he was willing to pay the price first, it was hard for Condela to refuse.

And he didn't intend to tell Countess Silvia about it.

The aristocratic servants these days are all hired. If there is no conflict with each other, they will naturally help each other.

"Come with me, but today's chef is Mrs. Clotte."

Li Changheng smiled and followed Condela out, through the small door next to the main staircase of the big house, walked into the stairs just enough for two people to pass, and went to the basement.

Anyone who saw him either stood upright and bowed his head, or bowed his knees with the hem of his skirt lifted.

When entering the corridor in the basement, to Li Changheng's surprise, the place where the servants of Gosford Manor stayed was not as small and crowded as imagined.

Not only is the kitchen huge, but the dining room where the servants dine is also huge.

Looking at the seats, it can definitely seat 40 people.

Then he thought that since banquets are often held here, the nobles would at least bring an attendant and a driver with them when they went out.

The place is small, if the guest's entourage and driver are dissatisfied, even if they don't tell their boss, they will spread the bad news secretly.

Don't even think about how good the reputation of the countess Silvia is.

At this time, the maid restaurant has finished dinner and clean-up work, so before 11 pm, it is the most relaxing time for everyone.

Many people are sitting in the restaurant chatting casually.

Through the wooden frame and the all-glass partition, Li Changheng could easily see the pair of brothers in suits and leather shoes that Hart mentioned.

With a smile on the corner of his mouth, he looked away.

He nodded with Lorraine, who was regarded as a goddess by most of the servants and followers.

The housekeeper Kondra stood at the door and coughed.

Everyone in the restaurant stood up habitually.

"Gentlemen and ladies, welcome to Mr. SIR-LEE."

"Thank you, thank you," Li Changheng nodded to the person who stood up to greet him, and then said with a smile, "I'm here to thank Mrs. Clotte, who is the chef today."

Hearing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and then whether it was the manor, the people, or the entourage of the guests, they all laughed and applauded.

Li Changheng nodded his thanks to the surroundings.

Then he said to the only woman in her 60s who didn't applaud, "In addition to thanking you for your cooking skills.

I would also like to exchange your recipe for the red velvet cake.

Of course, I apologize if I feel a bit abrupt.

And if you would, what do you think of £1,000? "

"God?"

Li Changheng's words made everyone exclaim in an instant.

This is their salary for two to three years because it includes food, lodging, daily necessities and work clothes for four seasons.

Mrs. Clott shook her head and hands hurriedly, "Thank you for your generosity, but just substituting goat's milk for cow's milk and adding a little grapeseed oil is definitely not worth the £1,000 you paid.

Moreover, this idea is not something I came up with. "

PS: There are still 500 words in the author's words, thank you.

"It's the innovation of my assistant Abby."

Li Changheng followed Mrs. Clott's fingers, and looked at a fat young cook who was wearing a cook's uniform, but definitely weighed 160 kilograms, but was actually not bad.

Abby immediately shook her hand nervously, "SIR, it's my honor that you like the dessert I made, other, other..."

After hesitating for a few words, Abby plucked up the courage to say, "If possible, can you say 'Abby, you are the best pastry chef'?"

Praising others is an easy thing for Li Changheng.

"I don't know the best pastry chef, but if it's just red velvet cake, Abby, you are indeed the best."

What he didn't expect was that it was such a simple matter that many servants and followers looked at him with grateful eyes.

Then Li Changheng followed the butler with doubts and walked up the stairs.

"Mr. Condela, I don't understand?"

Condela, who had been leaning sideways and walking along the wall, hesitated for a few seconds before looking up and down.

After confirming that there was no one, she whispered, "The hostess of Gosford Manor never said thank you, let alone reward Mrs. Clott and Abby, the pastry chef, for the good food.

On the contrary, many guests would take the initiative to ask me to thank the kitchen for the food prepared. This is also the way Abby and other young cooks feel happy and honored.

And you are the first nobleman to say thank you and words of affirmation face to face while thanking the chef. "

Li Changheng said thank you and stopped asking questions, but he thought in his heart that Kondra's answer seemed to be okay.

But he will say those words just now, which is the biggest problem.
