Chapter 97 King Sirin's Concerns

It was a fine day when King Therin arrived, the sun was shining and the sun was languid.

Cecil wore that gorgeous uniform for the first time, wrapped up in the style of ancient Chinese clothes, and was laughed at by others after going out.

"Why is your cloak tied into a skirt?" Oakes laughed exaggeratedly.

Cecil also felt that something was wrong when he wore it, but the tie of the cloak was very short. He tried it and felt like he was going to strangle him. He had no choice but to tie it on both sides of his waist, but it was still just right, just two layers of bottoms It's kind of weird.At this time, Dingqing looked around and found that there were two ropes on the other person's shoulders, and the cloak was tied to these. No wonder the rope was so short, he tied it around his neck in the way of ancient Chinese cloaks and cloaks.

Since there are no buttons, all clothes are closed by belts and ropes, which is very cumbersome to put on and take off. For example, there is a circle of rope on the top of the socks, which must be tied so that they will not fall off.There is no underwear, just pants.

It has to be said that magic has increased the comfort of the clothes. Cecil shuddered thinking about the touch of the original linen, not to mention keeping warm. I really don’t know how other people endured it. It seems that he is still very pampered. .

Oaks, Langdon, Eugene, Moyer, plus Cecil, basically the leadership of Moon City are all present, all dressed up, and each of them is shining like gold and walking out like a moving jewel rack.

Cecil always felt that if the other party came over on a skinny horse by a bad old man, the scene would be ridiculous.Fortunately, Langdon and the others still had enough experience, and King Serling's appearance was very grand.

First came the waves.

Cecil couldn't help squinting his eyes when he saw this place, thinking that there was some hallucination. After all, this ghostly place is thousands of miles away from the coast, not to mention the sea, and there is not even a river. Where are the waves coming from?

It was really a wave, the blue and transparent sea water, the kind of waves crashing on the shore of the top resort, slowly driving a wooden boat.The front end of the ship is equipped with a metal pointed pole, like the point of a gun. The pointed pole is connected to several small triangular sails on the main ship. It maintains excellent balance on the waves and barely wobbles.

So what, a ship is coming, should we avoid it?

Cecil didn't dare to say this, because everyone else looked calm, so he couldn't show his timidity.He subconsciously thought that if the ship were to be put down like this, later generations would find a ship in the plateau area after many years of archaeology here, and they don't know what kind of associations they would have. Perhaps there would be another "what?" What doesn't solve the puzzle".

The sailboat sailed until 100 meters away from the entrance of Yuecheng. In other words, the waves stopped, and the crystal waves slowly flattened. The boat was put on the grassland, stretched and changed, and finally became a crystal giant.

"I am Cleopatra, the god of the tides."

The huge ship also gradually took shape, turning into a woman with a slender figure.

"I am Retrica, God of Ship Girls."

Cecil:? ? ?

Ship girl?

Ship girl? ?

I must have swiped too much!

Cecil lowered his head and blinked vigorously to get rid of the confused hallucinations. This scene can't be funny, and the other god came to deliver it in person, and he must have wanted to show his strength.This is the same as an adult sending a child to kindergarten. As a "child" in kindergarten, it is better to be more cautious, and be cautious if you are contaminated with gods.

However, the ship girl is really...

"Cecil Knight Commander!" Langdon's voice brought Cecil back to his senses. He raised his head and saw a person standing in front of him.

As far as I can tell, King Serin is definitely handsome, with stars in his eyes and a youthful vigor, which makes people feel good.The problem is that those who are compared with him are "not human". According to the will rules made by a certain resentful senior, no matter what, King Serin, as a human being, cannot compare with these inhumans.

Just a normal handsome guy.

Cecil put his hand on his heart and lowered his head slightly: "Welcome, Your Majesty the King." He had consulted Langdon on all these in advance, and he must not neglect future partners and sources of labor.

Surprisingly, King Serin stretched out his arms in a hug gesture. Seeing that Cecil didn't move, he smiled and said, "What? I remember that the homosexual knights expressed their closeness by kissing their cheeks."

Indeed, the problem is that this is an act between knights, and no knight will ask an outsider to do so.

"Sorry, did I make a mistake?"

King Serin was still smiling, but how could Cecil make this distinguished guest stretch out his hand like this, and hurriedly stepped forward to give him a hug. To his surprise, this hug was too warm, and he was already affected by all kinds of people in the group. He was still a little embarrassed by the "education".

Fortunately, the warm hug broke at the touch of a touch, and King Serling moved on to the next person, and an even more embarrassing scene appeared.Langdon was about to stretch out his arms for a hug, but he slapped his hands on his heart and gave a normal salute as if nothing had happened.

As expected of a social veteran, Langdon quickly changed his hands into a caressing posture, and changed his hand into a waist hug, barely keeping the scene.

Fuck, is the king here to make trouble?

After thinking about it for a while, Cecil felt something was wrong.

It stands to reason that King Serling has a special person to deliver the news. It is impossible to mistake the person. Langdon is the highest official here. He must greet Langdon first. Why did he come to greet me out of nowhere?

The whole set of social conversations that followed was quite normal. The two gods disappeared after the initial utterance, obviously just showing their faces to show their presence, and it was no different from what the Great Wall did. It seems that they also It is impossible to build a country for the Serin people by divine power.

Mayor Langdon and King Serling visited the main buildings of Moon City and had an in-depth understanding of the future cooperation agreement and the situation of the two parties. Mayor Langdon said that he would start a long-term, friendly and mutually beneficial cooperation project with Serling to promote The development of both sides will make Yuecheng and the new city in the future embark on the road of prosperity, democracy and civilization.King Serling highly praised Mayor Langdon's responsible spirit of a great country, and at the same time expressed a strong interest in Minister Cecil...

Um?Wait a moment!

Cecil always thought it was an illusion that King Serin looked at him, but after the long and boring welcome ceremony, Oakes's first words were: "You are finished, Gray must have taken a fancy to you."

Gray Rhodes is the name of King Serling. The Rhodes family is the original and current rulers of the Serling Kingdom. Over the years, the bloodline has been clear and the throne has been changed peacefully. They are well received by all walks of life.

"What the hell?" Cecil's appearance can't beat other people's. Leaving aside this part, he has nothing outstanding at all. In terms of connotation, he didn't talk to the other party. Connotation is a ghost, "I do not know him."

"I also find it a bit strange." Russell frowned. "This guy's attitude is too enthusiastic. Besides, how does he know the etiquette in our group?"

"Didn't his father have a royal cavalry?" Cecil still remembered this.

"Wang Qi is not a nanny, besides, Gray is the first prince, and he doesn't go to sea with the boat." Russell said.

Langdon thoughtfully explained: "King Serling spends most of the year on the ship. This is a country whose main economic pillars are maritime trade and ocean fishing. The king's cavalry has always followed the king. It is impossible to have too many Opportunity to get in touch with the prince. Besides, he will not and should not teach the prince anything. Whether in public or private, no king wants his son to be too close to the king, and some kings even strictly forbid the king to contact the princes. "

This is quite understandable, as Gray's attitude became even more suspicious.

"Ask the temple, is the old king's cavalry still there?" Oakes asked.

"It seems to have passed away. It was a human being." Langdon opened the parchment "phone" and said, "But Wang Qi has a regular work log, just check it."

Cecil: "..."

You guys really made the most of your position as a lover!

The reply from the temple was very fast. Since there were too many materials to be transmitted, another communication magic circle was specially set up, which had to be done by Eugene's legion knights who were good at communication magic.

This time the magic was very luxurious. The "communicator" first took out a small book and recited more than 30 pages of obscure spells, then cut off part of the hair, poured a finger of blood, and all kinds of incomprehensible spells. Throwing his stuff into a silver basin, followed by another thirty pages of incantations, and finally, with a soft sound, a mist of light was lit above the silver basin, and a few words were revealed in the mist: Jon, King of Serin · Rhodes' work diary, and then the "correspondent" quit, this is not a secret he can touch.

A book appeared in the haze, and Langdon reached out and actually "turned" a page. On the first page was a bust of the author, which instantly stunned everyone in the room.

So much like Cecil!

Cecil's appearance is very standard, the corners of his mouth are naturally slightly upturned, even with a deadpan face, he looks gentle, with black hair and black eyes.This former Wang Qi also had black hair and black eyes, and his appearance was even more standard than him. The three courtyards and five eyes were like a sculptured dummy, and he didn't have the characteristic of raising the corners of his mouth, so he looked a little indifferent.

At that time, Cecil and Langdon were standing together, and at a glance, it was indeed the one with the "different painting style".

Langdon, Oakes, and Moyer are not human beings. Compared with Cecil, they are more handsome. Eugene's appearance is too square, more upright, and he is not black-haired and black-eyed, so...

"It's really easy to mistake you for that king knight, and you're still wearing the same clothes." Russell said, "I'm a little excited to see a familiar face after surviving a catastrophe."

This is an acceptable explanation, and the following diary quickly slapped Russell in the face.

The whole work diary is really a "work" diary, dutifully recording the old king's preferences, actions, various policies and ideas, and there is no "rich and colorful private life" in Cecil's imagination. The only thing related to private behavior is The part of Prince Gray Lord.

[The first prince, Gray Rhodes, was lively in nature, the queen died young, and was raised by his elderly grandmother, who was too old and did not have enough energy to raise him. Most of the time, servants and nanny took on the responsibilities of parents, but raising a prince It's not something these people can do.After a series of short encounters, I discovered that the prince was dependent on older men, presumably as father substitutes.Jon is always very serious, because of the queen's death, he can't have any affection for his only son, which is why he seeks emotional comfort from Wang Qi, so that he can avoid the world's criticism of his moral character. 】

"Wouldn't it be better to find a male lover?" Cecil couldn't help asking.

"That's a thing of the past. I said earlier that Wang Qi doesn't necessarily have a physical relationship now." Langdon said, "The general public is generally positioned as an advisor."

"However, Jon is written in his work diary, calling the king by his first name," Cecil said.

Several other people looked at each other.

"It's not easy to lie, teacher." Russell said with a smile.

Langdon said with a fake smile: "Russell, shut up and read the diary."

Cecil flinched, not daring to talk anymore.

[Prince Gray likes to chat with me and ask about Jon's situation. I tried to build a bridge of communication between father and son, which aroused Jon's anger. He quarreled with me for the first time, which obviously had a huge impact on my work, but It is beneficial in the long run, this is just my opinion, please keep trying. 】

[To this day, I have to admit that there is an insurmountable gap between father and son. Because of my attempts, Jon is very alienated from his son, probably subconsciously thinking that his son will take away his love. I will change it method to deepen the intimacy with Jon. 】

Seeing this, Cecil couldn't help coughing, raised his head just in time to meet Langdon's eyes, and quickly avoided it.

I've already said it, these two people really have an affair, he murmured in his heart.

[Prince Gray's puberty is more annoying than I imagined, how do parents deal with naughty sons?I just want to tie up this kid and give him a hundred lashes.However, he did show an extraordinary affection for me and suggested that the Temple send someone to contact me privately. 】

【This is the last entry in this work log. There is no need for Serling to stay any longer. The relationship between Jon and me is very stable, but Serrin's operation has entered a fixed track, and I don't think there will be any major changes.If there is no accident, Nethering will follow today's track for the next 100 years and apply for a transactional transfer. PS: Prince Gray showed a strong dislike to the knights he came into contact with, which proved that he was not gay, so there was no need to send someone to test him. 】

Then came some finishing touches and Therin's confidential records, most of which were of no value with the destruction of the floating wall.

After reading it, Cecil couldn't help sighing: "This is too heartless."

"Ruthless?" Oakes said, "Just now you said that these two were having an affair!"

Langdon coughed loudly.

"What I'm talking about is that there is indeed some affection between the king's cavalry and the old king, but just leave like that, can he stay by the old king's side voluntarily?" Cecil asked.

"So what, this king got married and had children." Sure enough, Oakes said immediately, "If necessary, he would marry again. In fact, he did get married again later, and had three children. Woolen cloth."

Cecil had nothing to say, read the diary several times, and asked, "What do you mean by transactional transfer?"

"Let Wang Qi leave for business reasons, such as parents having an accident, or wanting to pursue higher magic. This is to allow Wang Qi to appear again if necessary in the future. In some cases, we will let The king's cavalry is transferred away by death, which means that this king's cavalry can never appear in front of this king again," Langdon said.

"What, is there a grudge?" Cecil said casually.

"No, I just want to create a white moonlight." Moyer said with rare enthusiasm, "In some cases, this is more useful than a living old lover, it all depends on the character of the other party."

Cecil: "..."

Can you still be better? !

"Why do you look at me like that? You play with emotions more than I do. I just play with the soul and the body. You can play with everything." Moyer pouted and made an aggrieved expression, successfully making Mrs. Ochs right He started the taunting rhythm.

Cecil read the diary several times and always felt that things were too simple.

"I mean, over the years, you...haven't other countries alerted to our approach?" Cecil approached Langdon and asked in a low voice.

"Of course there is." Langdon reported the truth at once, "But, so what? We have indeed brought benefits. Besides, if you don't need it, you can just drive us out. Moreover, we have protective skins. .”

"what?"

"Remember the king cavalry I said that fell in love with each other and fought for him?" Langdon said slowly, "That time the Knights did suffer a lot and were almost disbanded, but we made it through after all. After that, This example puts us on the veil of love. Many kings are willing to accept us because they have an illusion. When his rule is about to end, his king cavalry will stand up to turn the tide and fight for him. In addition, we do not It will not hinder his rule, so at least there is no need to oppose us, is there?"

Cecil didn't continue to ask silly questions like "Will we really do it?" He just felt a little uncomfortable. It seemed that the knights had become masters at playing with love. After all, Langdon was also one of them.

Langdon probably guessed what Cecil was thinking, and touched his forehead: "Don't worry, this is only for ordinary people, it's not like this between us."

The male god has said so, what else can I say?

"Then should I keep a distance from this Gray?" Although very embarrassed, Cecil couldn't help asking.

"Get close if you want to get close, and keep distance if you want to keep distance. The Knights will not interfere with this." Oakes said, "In the past, there was no way to do it. Everyone had a hard time, but now it is different."

Cecil was taken aback, and suddenly felt an inexplicable touch: the good days that the seniors sold their looks and wisdom for... Fuck, it's really awkward!

Cecil still underestimated the impact of this incident. On the second day, he decided to discuss with Gray to immediately send more people to start the construction of the road from Ebo to Moon City. When he opened the door, he saw Gray standing outside the door, smiling. He said, "Good morning, Commander Cecil."

"...Good morning, Your Majesty the King."

"You don't need to be so born, just call me Your Majesty Gray."

"Okay, Your Majesty Rhodes."

Gray smiled, but didn't force it.

The conversation that followed was quite normal. After Cecil explained his future plans, Gray was willing to spend 1 people to build the "Aiyue Road" and the artificial lake in Ebo. This is related to the top priority of this year's rations and cannot be delayed. , the rest of the workers will carry out clay mining, transportation and brick making, which are closely related to their quality of life, and there is no reason to refuse.

Of course, these laborers have no wages. Legally, Ebo belongs to the Knights. If they are willing to take in more than 1 people, it is already a life-saving grace. There is no reason to pay salaries. Even the rations of these laborers have to be raised by themselves. , Cecil said that he would try his best to provide relief. The problem is that there are too many people, and it is impossible for him to have so much food.

Gray expressed his full understanding, saying that the God of Ocean Currents would send them seafood regularly, which would last for a while, and they would also send people to join hunting, breeding and other industries to actively make money.

Cecil said: "Your people can also join the soap factory and the paper factory if they want, and the foundry workshop. These industries are in urgent need of manpower, and the saffron picking industry is also a labor-intensive industry. Welcome to join."

"Thank you very much." Gray said gratefully, "If you don't mind, can I invite you to dinner tonight?"

Cecil said without thinking too much: "Thank you, but I still have to dig a hole at night. The weather is getting warmer, so there is no delay in digging a hole. After all, the rainy season is coming. If you have time, come along. There are not enough people now." !"

Gray: "..."

There is absolutely not enough manpower!

The mining of clay begins with the construction of a duty hut in the local area. From here, the workers will start laying the rammed earth road to Yuecheng. Although this kind of road is not as good as cement, it can already be used by cars. Create conditions for clay transportation.

Cecil kept an eye on the progress of the four-wheeled carriage every day, and even asked the carpenters to ignore the crazy flame goblins and get the four-wheeled carriage out first.Every day between digging pits, he would go to the carpenter's laboratory and watch the carriage take shape bit by bit.

I don't know when, Cecil found that he often met Gray.

"Would you like to see the carriage?"

Cecil does not intend to hide this technology. Anyway, the ordinary technology in this world is in a state of failure, and there are not enough talents at all. The people who will be cultivated later will not be able to keep up with the pioneers anyway. Just grabbing the head is enough. He has made a lot of money, and after that, he can also use the "piracy" to crack down on magic homogeneous products. After defeating the magic peers, he can use the first pot of gold to further develop new technologies, and he will always be in a monopoly position. Very crooked.

As for Gray, there is no need to worry, the focus of this guy is not on the carriage at all.

"Are you free tomorrow morning?" Gray said with a smile, "Do you want to take my land boat? You said you never saw it last time."

Cecil's eyes lit up: "That's really interesting, but I'm going to the foundry tomorrow, and I said that I have a new discovery. Do you want to go and have a look? Those flame goblins are just crazy!"

Gray: "..."
