The hottest newspaper in the Royal Capital recently, without a doubt, is the Kingdom Deep Observation Report.
And the most sought-after person in the Royal Capital right now, no doubt, is Ethan.
Just today, the two joined forces once again, creating another peak of public opinion.
The Kingdom Deep Observation Report, having just emerged unscathed from the Kingdom Defense Bureau incident, seems to be striking while the iron is hot and has suddenly showcased Ethan's new work.
However, this time it's not a painting, but his paper, published in the art journal Mirror Corridor.
Yes, that Mirror Corridor.
Pupol and their Mirror Corridor.
Here's what happened: Ethan originally approached Jackson to handle this matter, but midway, Pupol found out and immediately called, saying the paper absolutely couldn't be published elsewhere and had to be in Mirror Corridor. He also remarked on Ethan being part of the Mirror Gallery Art Society but not considering their own journal, which felt too distant.
The truth is, Ethan was entirely unaware of this journal.
Pupol said, "It's good you didn't know. This is our new journal. This is the first issue, and using your paper as the opening piece is definitely fitting."
Thus, while everyone was still asking what Mirror Corridor was, the first issue of Mirror Corridor was already snatched up in the circle.
For a time, a peculiar phenomenon appeared in the Royal Capital. Clearly, none of them were professional artists, yet they all sought to find where to buy a copy of the professional art journal Mirror Corridor.
And so, the first issue of Mirror Corridor became wildly popular, instantly turning into a top-tier journal, and likewise, the discussion around Ethan's paper skyrocketed, while the Kingdom Deep Observation Report also benefited.
Triple win.
No, quadruple win.
Because Ethan's auction also got hyped up again.
While discussing Ethan's paper, it was difficult not to mention what Ethan was up to, and naturally, his auction came into everyone's view.
So, everyone knows Ethan is about to hold an auction.
Just in a few days.
Undoubtedly, this round of promotion was a huge success.
Aside from those who were originally due to come from out of town, quite a few high-ranking officials and dignitaries in the Royal Capital, who might previously have had no interest, were also scrambling to attend this grand event.
Among them, one of the most heavyweight figures is the Eldest Prince Havenius, who has confirmed his attendance at this auction.
Jackson has already received the news.
This made Jackson exceptionally excited. It's not just that the selling price will rise; the entire auction's sophistication has increased.
Most importantly, Ethan's artistic value has been raised once more. In the future, he'll be an artist admired by royalty and nobility.
This elevates Ethan's status in the art circles to another level.
And, Jackson's position in the circle is different as well.
He used to be a successful art dealer, his family had been in the art business for generations, wielding some influence in the art circle, knowing some old aristocracy, barely making it into the Royal Capital's celebrity ranks.
But the true high echelon, the royal family, those large family names, he wasn't that familiar with.
This time, they're all together.
Especially, Ethan also brought him some good news.
That is, Azertu, the usually reclusive power invention tycoon, will unexpectedly be present as well.
Jackson began to sigh, deciding that going to Wenster and representing Ethan's paintings was the most correct decision he had ever made in his life.
On the other side.
Ethan's arms business also had new developments, with Shark Jensen requesting Ethan to discuss the details.
However, Ethan didn't opt to go himself this time; he had too much on his plate. If he handled everything himself, he'd truly be overwhelmed.
This sort of thing should be delegated to Palon, as after coming to the Royal Capital, he mostly spent his time socializing and meeting people, but hadn't actually done much, which wasn't the purpose of his coming here.
Palon himself had become a bit rusty and gladly accepted this task.
He also brought along Haska.
As for other personnel, after settling down, a batch of people had already been transferred from Wenster.
After briefing Palon on the matter, Ethan suddenly thought, if he was truly ready to film a movie, didn't he just have a leading actor?
With Palon's image, coupled with the relationships he established in the Royal Capital, especially with those noblewomen and young ladies, this is all invisible wealth.
Add in Haska.
Haska as the mafia might not exactly be a good mafia, nor successful. But he does have a great appearance, and his demeanor, as long as he doesn't improvise in public but sticks strictly to the script, his charm could surpass even Palon's.
Consider it utilizing waste.
Thinking of this, Ethan's vigor increased.
He kept writing until evening, then received a call from Joseph.
"I still haven't thanked you for last time. Let's have dinner tonight. I've already reserved our usual spot."
Joseph's voice couldn't hide his joy, unsure if it was because he finally got rid of a competitor and secured his current position or because he could see West again, that made him so happy.
Ethan was just hungry, and agreed.
For between the words, he sensed Joseph might have something else to discuss.
Otherwise, he wouldn't be willing to leave his work to go out.
Upon preparing to leave, he received Palon's call, saying the business was already negotiated, today securing a sizable deal worth nearly a million Golden Rye.
He also remarked on the Royal Capital residents being wealthy, generous, nothing Wenster could compare.
His words suggested he felt fortunate about his decision to come to the Royal Capital.
"But actually, that person is likely not from the Royal Capital but a Westerner, a Western gang. Probably, don't know who they're planning to fight with buying so much stuff."
Palon sighed and was ready to hang up.
Ethan, upon hearing the word Western gang, became interested and asked, "How do you know the other party is a Western gang?"
"Because he's deeply fond of the revolver."
"Oh?" Ethan didn't understand.
"Haha." Palon laughed, saying, "There's a good saying, there are only two types of people who always love revolvers: cowboys and cowboys who died in duels."
"Try to find out if the other party is indeed a Western gang in future transactions, but don't reveal your intention."
Listening to this, Ethan was silent for a while and said.
If it's truly a Western gang, why are they suddenly purchasing so many repeating rifles?
The answer is actually quite simple. Just find their enemies.
And the daily enemies of Western gangs, or rather, their routine encroachments over the past few years, are the Mafia in the South District.
