Since Genna Cosmo said that he would think about it, Xia Zuoyi gave him all the chocolates he had made before.

Chocolate is made entirely from cocoa.

Initially the finished product is a bit bitter, but later becomes sweeter.

If it wasn't for the fact that the amount of cocoa is not too much, Xia Zuoyi would like to make some more flavors.

Gena Cosmo likes chocolates that taste a little bit bitter, but he has no aversion to chocolates that are a little bit sweeter.

The next day, he came to Xia Zuoyi and agreed to this cooperation.

"When the cocoa plantation grows, I want to make the first batch of chocolates, and the subsequent supply must also be given priority to Powell."

Of course, Xia Zuoyi agreed to such a request.

He took out a contract and said: "After all, verbal promises alone can't guarantee anything. It's better to sign an agreement..."

"But I also want to make a statement in advance."

"The cocoa plant is a new type of plant that Samuel brought back from the New World. We have never had it before, and naturally we don't have much experience in planting it..."

"So, if the cocoa plantation fails, what if our agreement is void?"

"can."

"Okay, then please sign and press your thumbprint."

After ending this cooperation, Genna Cosmo lightly twisted the red seal on his thumb and said, "Recently, something happened in the San Airo Empire..."

"I don't know if the lord has heard of it?"

Xia Zuoyi asked Judith to accept the contract, then turned around and said, "What does Your Majesty mean?"

"The matter of the royal family of the St. Airl Empire."

Gena Cosmo said: "The lord should have heard that the third prince, Kaxiu, tried to seek the throne in vain. In the end, his plot was exposed by the eldest prince."

"The king reprimanded the third prince and imprisoned him on the Tower of Tumu, and no one was allowed to visit him."

Xia Zuoyi nodded, he had indeed heard the news.

Moreover, not long after the third prince Kaxiu was imprisoned, the king also became seriously ill.

Immediately afterwards, the St. Airo Empire began to be governed by the eldest prince and dealt with various affairs in the imperial city of the empire.

"What does His Majesty want to say?"

Gena Cosmo: "I don't know if the lord is interested in the territory of the San Airo Empire?"

He didn't beat around the bush, but asked directly.

Xia Zuoyi was not surprised by the ambition of the supporting actor in the original book.

After all, before meeting the heroine, the ambition of the supporting actor in the original book has always been to make Powell the only country on the western continent.

Now, although the plot of the original book has deviated a lot, Gena Cosmo's ambitions seem to have not changed.

Xia Zuoyi said: "Even if I'm interested, I won't launch a war at this time."

One is that the timing is wrong.

The second is that at this stage, he really has a lot of things that need to be done first-such as the harvest of crops, the extraction of oil, and so on.

"I understand what His Majesty means."

Gena Cosmo made a gesture of all ears.

Xia Zuoyi said: "The Black Death has just passed, and almost all places have been greatly affected, especially the Saint Airo Empire..."

"I think that the national strength of the St. Airo Empire is not as good as before. In addition, the Powell Kingdom is located in the extreme north. The location is remote and the border is blocked in time..."

"The country of Powell has been almost negligibly affected by the Black Death epidemic."

"But the Saint Airo Empire was one of the two most powerful empires in the past. Even if its strength has declined, no one can be sure whether a dying old wolf will fight back..."

"What's more, the San Ai Luo Empire has not yet reached the point of dying old wolf."

Furthermore, there is Warner Giles, the protagonist in the original book, in the St. Aero Empire.

He has now slowly gathered power from the king's hands...

And the male protagonist in the original book is paired with the male—no matter how you think about it, the winning side is not with Gener.

Gener: "The Anas Empire has disappeared, and the Saint Airo Empire may not last forever."

Xia Zuoyi smiled: "But at least, there are not stupid people in the royal family of the Saint Airo Empire..."

"Your Majesty may wish to guess. Is it a coincidence that the king became seriously ill after the third prince Kaxiu was imprisoned?"

Gener smiled and said nothing, but the meaning was already obvious.

He said: "Since the lord thinks that the timing is not right now, this matter can be ended here."

It was a long time ahead, and he was in no hurry.

"I believe that one day, the lord will stand with me."

Xia Zuoyi smiled and said, "Who can say for sure what will happen in the future."

…………

The business of buying vodka in bulk is done.

Genna Cosmo will also leave the territory of Designia and return to the country of Powell.

Before leaving, Gurner's subordinate, Clifford, wanted to struggle one last time.

He tried to get close to the ice cream, and stopped at a position where the ice cream would not turn around and walk away. He held the snow wolf he brought with him and said a lot to the ice cream.

Clifford spoke dryly.

However, Xue Ge sat on the spot, her icy blue eyes remained unmoved.

After Xia Zuoyi walked over, Ice Cream stood up and brushed his ankle affectionately with her big tail.

Ice Cream whimpered, nibbled on Xia Zuoyi's sleeve, and tried to lead him to the window—this meant going out to play.

Gunner is attracted by Ice Cream's cleverness.

Clifford couldn't take his eyes off.

Lost and troubled, he said, "This is the youngest and most beautiful snow wolf I have chosen among the wolves. Why doesn't the white wolf like it..."

Xia Zuoyi hugged Ice Cream's big head and kissed it, telling her to wait a little longer.

Afterwards, he found a reason to comfort him: "Probably because Ice Cream wants a partner with the same white hair."

Clifford was dumbfounded: This...they really don't have it.

Gener sighed, "Forget it for now."

"Clifford, don't be discouraged."

"After all, the white wolf is different from ordinary wolves. It is unique. We can meet it but cannot force it."

This makes sense.

Xia Zuoyi couldn't help but glanced at him.

But then Gener continued: "Since the white wolf doesn't like this snow wolf, maybe the lord can bring the white wolf to Powell as a guest."

"There are many female wolves in my wolf pack, and there will always be a white wolf that I like..."

Xia Zuoyi: "..."

In the end, Gener left without taking a single wolf hair.

It's been a bit too busy lately.

After Genna Cosmo left, Xia Zuoyi was finally able to take a breath and rest for a while.

It is also worth mentioning that he has not seen much of the Pope recently.

——Archbishop Paul came to the territory of Designia some time ago.

Then, the pope would often enter the church in Wissas, not knowing what he was busy with.

That night, just after the moonlight hung in the sky, Xia Zuoyi saw the Pope in front of a large French window sill to enjoy the scenery of Lake Pall outside.

He leaned sideways against the railing, raised his head and stared at the star-studded night sky, and the slightly curly long hair that fell on his shoulders fluttered slightly with the night wind...

The pope was dressed in black, and his whole body seemed to be integrated into the bright star cloth, but it was set off by the darkness of the night...

Xia Zuoyi: Very charming.

Looking at people under the stars, everyone looks good.

He walked over and asked, "Your Majesty, are you still going to sleep?"

Saigalot turned his head, his golden eyes seemed to be stained with intoxicating tenderness under the moonlight, and he said, "Why didn't you sleep?"

Xia Zuoyi: "Not too sleepy."

Want to play for a while.

Segalot: "Are you drinking?"

"I can drink wine."

It also happens to help sleep.

Xia Zuoyi asked Judit to bring wine and wine glasses, and let him go down to rest.

Immediately, he and His Holiness the Pope sat by the window enjoying the beauty of the moonlight.

Xia Zuoyi shook the wine glass.

He drank but not much, and had very few preferred alcohols, wine being one of them.

The wines in the castle are all self-brewed, with a rich and mellow taste.

When the cork was opened, a strong aroma of wine wafted out.

Xia Zuoyi's mood became better, and she couldn't help showing a smile on her face, her eyebrows and eyes were as beautiful as crescent moons.

Saigalot looked away without a trace, took a sip of wine and said, "There are many other places in your territory that need to be learned."

"Recently, I've been busy with one thing."

"what's up?"

Xia Zuoyi didn't expect that His Majesty the Pope would take the initiative to mention it, so she turned to look at him.

Segalot: "Orphanages and shelters."

"The epidemic of the Black Death has had a great impact on the people of the San Airo Empire. Although the epidemic has passed, most people are homeless and displaced."

"The king did not make a decision in time, nor did he come up with relevant and effective policies... Therefore, this matter will be handled by the Holy See."

Xia Zuoyi sat up upon hearing the words: "What does Your Majesty plan to do?"

Saigalot: "During the epidemic, the initial prototypes of rescue centers had actually been formed in the empire, but after the epidemic passed, all parties evacuated, and the rescue centers gradually became abandoned after they ran out of supplies."

"What's more, the church sent back the investigation situation of various parts of the empire before. Some places are still chaotic and disorderly, and there are many people who can't eat enough..."

It is not easy for adults to survive, let alone some children who are not yet adults.

Segalot seems to be very concerned about this matter.

But as the pope, Segalot actually didn't have much compassion.

He can be indifferent to everything, and watch from the sidelines, but there is one thing...

Segalot: "I remember you saying not too long ago that it would be nice if all children could be cared for."

Xia Zuoyi was surprised.

The day before, he had gone to the orphanage in Wissas to see how some sick children were doing.

It was also the first day that the alchemist examined the child's body.

He saw that the child who was supposed to be mischievous and spoiled at a young age was dragged sick in the orphanage because of the loss of his family and parents...

Although uncomfortable, but obediently waiting... It really hurts to see it like that.

Xia Zuoyi couldn't help but feel deeply moved.

He thought that the children in the orphanage could at least have enough food and clothing, but other places...

At that time, Xia Zuoyi couldn't help saying something casually along with the thoughts in her heart.

But he didn't expect that these words would be remembered by His Majesty the Pope, and also...

Xia Zuoyi couldn't help pursing her lips.

There is a strange emotion that seems to be like mellow wine, which is evaporating from my heart bit by bit.

He didn't know what to say.

Saigalot picked up the wine glass at this time and said, "You don't need to thank me, because this is not your responsibility."

After he finished speaking, he touched the rim of Xia Zuoyi's glass with his wine glass.

Xia Zuoyi raised her eyebrows, without saying a word, she gave a toast in return.

Then, he overestimated his drinking capacity - a few more drinks before he was drunk.

In a daze, he seemed to be leaning into a warm chest, and he heard someone asking in a low voice: "Go to sleep?"

Xia Zuoyi hummed.

The author has something to say: Second update.

Xia Xia: The Pope actually...

Pope: Are you moved?

Xia Xia: I am moved, but not completely moved. The emotions are a bit complicated and I haven't figured it out yet.

Pope: Don't worry, drink first.

Good night~
