The monk of the way of beauty

Chapter 411 Aftermath (Happy Dragon Boat Festival everyone)

Of course, Ling Xiao will not be satisfied with just getting some experimental data. When Eric and others were carefully collecting different space samples and data in the factory building, Ling Xiao had already brought Savin and other desperate fighters, directly Entered Wertheim and obtained a large number of samples of alien rock and soil.

And he will secretly find ways to sell such alien samples. I believe that many people will have a high desire to collect this kind of rock and soil samples from other worlds.You must know that the rock samples brought back by Armstrong from the moon have sold for 1 US dollars per gram on the black market.

当初阿姆斯特朗一共从月球带回了五个地点的土壤样本，包括500克小于1公分的沙粒，及12颗大于1公分的石块。而这12颗石块已经有4块在美国博物馆被盗。

The total weight of the rock samples that Ling Xiao brought back from Wertheim this time has reached a ton. Of course, he will not be so stupid as to sell them on a large scale. Selling more than ten grams each time on the black market is enough for him. Earn a lot of money.

Of course, there is no rush for this matter. Before they find a suitable middleman, they will not make a move easily. After all, this is an unfamiliar field.

Before dawn in the morning, Ling Xiao had already woken up. Of course, he was not in the administrative building of the factory, nor Daisy's apartment in London, but the Hilton Hotel on the banks of the Thames.

Lying on the soft and comfortable big bed, Ling Xiao stroked the white and smooth arms of Daisy who was sleeping soundly, thinking about what he would do for a while, and when it was almost the same time, he got up to take a shower and practice.As for Daisy, the girl was really exhausted last night.

In the morning, in the administrative building of the factory, Ling Xiao met the expected inspector Budorak. It was no accident that he arrived at Budorak a long time ago.

"Let's get to know each other again. My name is Klein Budorak, and I'm also one of the twelve knights of the Knights of the Round Table." Budorak stared into Ling Xiao's eyes and said, "You can also call me Knight Tristan."

Tristan, Ling Xiao had a certain level of understanding of the Knights of the Round Table. The Knights of the Round Table have always had twelve titles, which have been passed down from ancient times to the present.However, there were actually only 11 people, because the chief knight, King Arthur, never showed up. Later, it was generally believed that the chief knight who inherited the title of King Arthur could only be the current king or queen of the British Empire forever.

Tristan is the last one among the twelve knights of the round table, and he is actually responsible for handling all the affairs on the secular level. For example, today they came to contact Ling Xiao. Among them, there are superheroes that are not well known to the public.

Yes, it is really unknown to the public. Even though the scene of Ling Xiao wearing the silver armor was photographed by the media, they all declared that he was an Asgar warrior from Asgard, not Earthlings, after all, the media has never photographed his true face.

After a while of pleasantries, Budorak asked seemingly casually: "Mr. Ling, I don't know what your plans are for this factory. I know that you bought this factory to study the space anomalies that appeared here, but now The space channel has been completely closed, do you plan to resell it?"

"Resale, no no!" Ling Xiao shook his head, looking at the clean and tidy factory outside, he said in a low voice: "I bought this factory not only for research, but also for investment. There is no plan to resell. I will set up an alien exploration equipment factory here. After all, the appearance of aliens is nothing new to the earth these years. In the future, there will definitely be more aliens Appear."

Sighing slightly, Ling Xiao continued: "Earth will eventually embark on the path of alien exploration one day, and space exploration is not the only way, so I plan to make some investments in this field, or To occupy some market share ahead of time, of course, this requires the strong support of the British government, and we can cooperate in many aspects."

Budorak nodded slightly. Although what Ling Xiao said is a bit whimsical, it is not a fantasy, and there is still a lot of room for manipulation. After all, the aggregation of the nine world stars has just ended. Who knows when Something weirder will happen.

"The UK welcomes friends from all over the world to invest in London, and the British government will of course give full support." Budorak first nodded in agreement with Ling Xiao's request, and then said with a serious face: "Mr. The medal for your contribution to the Dark Elf Invasion will be awarded in seven days, and you will be awarded the title of Lord of Honor, please be sure to come when the time comes."

"Thank you, Your Majesty the Queen!" Ling Xiao was a little flattered, he didn't expect the British government to come up with such a big deal.

In the United Kingdom, the highest titles are hereditary nobles, but now they are rarely awarded to public figures outside the royal family. Even the royal family members, the most recent one was the Earl of Wessex when Prince Edward got married.After that, there are lifelong nobles. All lifelong nobles have the title of baronet and are members of the House of Lords, but the title of lifelong nobleman cannot be inherited.

The second is the title of baron, which can be hereditary, but does not belong to the nobility.The last is the title of knight. The title of knight also does not belong to the nobility, but unlike the title of baronet, the title of knight cannot be hereditary.

In addition to these titled knighthoods, there are seven levels of medals that are more awarded to the public, and the highest level is the honorary honor.

There are only 65 people in the world who can receive the honorary title. It is awarded to those who are of great significance to the country and have made outstanding contributions. Ling Xiao received this medal, and the honorary title is more recognized by the public.

For a long time, British lords were limited to the aristocratic class, and most of them were hereditary. Only a few lords were oriented to common people, which made some people unable to get royal lords and enter the upper class no matter how rich they were.However, with the development of society, the British royal family also began to add officials and ranks to some people who made outstanding achievements.Although the Lord of Honor issued by the United Kingdom is more symbolic than practical, it highlights its social status.

For example, in 2003, British football icon and England national team captain David Beckham was awarded an officer of the British Empire; Officially awarded the Medal of Honor; and before that, former US President Bush Sr. also received a similar Medal of Honor.

And this is also the highest level of medal that Ling Xiao can obtain. After all, he is now an American citizen, and American law clearly stipulates that Americans cannot obtain foreign honorary titles, so knights, baronets, and other titles, unless Ling Xiao joined the British nationality, otherwise it would be difficult for him to obtain it.

But it's just a title of honorary honor. It can also be seen from this that although the British royal family, or the British government, is trying to win Ling Xiao, but the strength of the win is very limited. This is more like a temptation And observation, after all, the two sides don't know much about each other.

After sending Budorak away, the excitement on Ling Xiao's face disappeared immediately, instead showing a hint of playfulness, which revealed a lot of information.

Although the Avengers were established under the advocacy of SHIELD, their relationship with SHIELD is not deep, and they do not accept the command of SHIELD in many matters.

Although nominally S.H.I.E.L.D. is managed by the Security Council, in fact, the headquarters of S.H.I.E.L.D. is established in the United States, and most of the institutions are also distributed in the United States. From this we can see that there is a relationship between S.H.I.E.L.D. and the U.S. government. The connection is quite close.

The branches of S.H.I.E.L.D. located in other countries, although accepting the appointment and designation of the headquarters, also received considerable influence from the local countries, which to a certain extent caused contradictions and conflicts between S.H.I.E.L.D. and other countries. , the previous unpleasant meeting between Coulson and Budorak is an example.

In the near future, the disintegration of S.H.I.E.L.D. has shown signs of disintegration, not to mention the heroic civil war caused by the registration of superpowers. Now Ling Xiao needs to start making some preparations, although he doesn't want to. Involved in it, but it is a pity that there are some things that he can't just avoid by saying.
