Langdon turned around helplessly: "Miss Saint, I remember you said that you don't want to have anything to do with me anymore?"
Lei Shidong listened with great satisfaction.
That's right!This is the right taste!Seeing that Flora took the initiative to stop Langdon just now, he almost suspected something again. It seemed that he was too sensitive.
"I just want to say a few words from the standpoint of the temple."
Flora said in a high-sounding manner: "I heard that Lilica hurt you a few days ago. Her sword is enchanted. Your wound is hard to heal, right? Why don't you come to the temple for help? As a saint, I don't want you Exclude the temple for my sake, that's all."
Talents with the light attribute who have the ability to heal, although considering the national conditions when they go to school, they are still students of the Imperial Academy of Magic in name, but in fact, the teaching work, like other countries, is completely taken over by the temple for centralized teaching. Prioritize work in the temple.
This is a very honorable and prestigious job, and almost no one will refuse it. As a result, ordinary doctors on the market can only treat some common illnesses. If it is serious, or related to magic, it is best to go to the temple for help.
This is also a means for the temple to maintain its status.
So Helena only needs to go to the family doctor when she has a fever, and it was Flora who treated Langdon before he was beaten to death.
For these reasons, although Langdon seems to want to break up with her completely, making Flora a little flustered, deep down she still feels that there is still room for change, because as long as she is still the saint of the temple, sooner or later Langdon will When it comes to her head.
Flora is actually reminding Langdon now that while she is giving the steps, it is almost done.
If you don't come to ease the relationship with her now, if you want to please her when something happens, she won't let him pass the test easily.
After all, even if she had gone too far, wasn't Langdon at fault for insisting on embarrassing her in front of so many people?
However, every time I met Langdon recently, things didn't go as Flora expected.
"hurt?"
Langdon raised his eyebrows, thanking Shalltear in his heart: "I don't need the temple, the new alchemist has given me medicine, and I'm almost fine."
The expression on Flora's beautiful face was blank for a moment: "...?"
How come there is an alchemist!Who is this!Could it be a scholar who mainly studies healing potions?
Will Langdon come to her for help?
...Should be able to, right?
After all, she is a saint!No one can replace her importance, right?

Flora was speechless, her pretty face was pale, but she stubbornly refused to ask any more questions, for fear of asking something that would upset her again.
Seeing that Flora would not be able to think of any other reason to stop him for a while, Langdon quickly slipped away.
But afterward, Flora seemed to be deliberately trying to dissuade him. Although she stopped talking to him, she deliberately chose a place near him when cooking. Langdon finally lit a fire and it was inconvenient to change places. The whole second half of the quarter The class was almost spent in the eyes of Flora flying from time to time.
So strictly speaking, there was actually nothing to do today, and some gains were made, but it just made Langdon so tired that Shalltear noticed his lack of energy as soon as he came back.
After Langdon briefly explained a few words, he calmed down Shalltear who was still trying to find any signs of injury from him.
"Don't look at it, I'm really not hurt, but I want to thank you for the ointment, it's very useful, in all aspects."
No matter in terms of the efficacy of the medicine, or the fact that it can be used by him to rebuff Flora's arrogant request, it is very useful.
It was so useful that Langdon couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "If I miss you, I will definitely regret it, so do you want to reconsider joining the Stuart family?"
He had raised it for so long, but Shalltear did not give a clear answer. Langdon felt that the possibility of being rejected was a bit high, and now he couldn't help but try to persuade him to stay.
Seeing that Langdon's actions did not look like he was injured, Shalltear was reluctantly relieved. Hearing him bring up this topic again, she couldn't help but sighed.
Langdon felt a chill in his heart when he heard the sigh.
It's over, such a well-timed and hard-working assistant is about to run away... There are not many people who can keep up with his thinking, where can he find someone who can replace him?
But Xia Tiya adjusted her glasses, hugged the notebook tightly in her arms, and said, "I've thought about it, and I'm willing to accept your invitation."
Although she didn't mention it, Xia Tiya has been thinking about it seriously these days.
It has to be said that what Langdon said before was very convincing. Shalltear was actually inclined to agree from the beginning, but she couldn't make up her mind because of some worries about whether it would cause too much trouble for Langdon.
But she understood what happened in the past two days.
While she was worried that she would bring Langdon into trouble, some people, such as Helena, Lilica, Flora... were devoted to causing trouble for Langdon.
If she is here, maybe Langdon can help Langdon relieve his worries. For example, Langdon can apply for a school admission certificate for her as an assistant officer, so that she can borrow books from the library of the Imperial School of Magic and Magic to enrich herself, and also follow her at any time. Langdon's side in order to help Langdon deal with some "unfriendly" people.
Especially since the relationship between the saint and Langdon is so bad, Langdon desperately needs an alchemist.
She stays only "possibly" to cause trouble for Langdon, but it can also help Langdon solve the trouble.
And when she left, Langdon was left with nothing but trouble!
Out of the inexplicable desire to protect Langdon in her heart, Shalltear became more and more worried, and now she finally made up her mind.
Langdon was surprised when he heard the words: "Really?"
"of course it's true."
After Xia Tiya said the words, it seemed as if a big rock had landed in her heart, and she relaxed a lot, and she was in the mood to joke.
"Anyway, the job I'm doing now is similar to that of an assistant officer, right? It's considered a full-time job."
"Ahaha..." Langdon's eyes drifted away.
In the beginning, Shalltear was really just helping with some business matters, but because she was so capable and studious, Langdon took the opportunity of taking classes to add some related work to Shalltear, The name is to test her and let her do it as homework.
Shalltear didn't think Langdon's actions were wrong, so before she knew it, Shalltear's work content had already exceeded the scope of what was supposed to be done in name.
But Langdon was shameless, and he couldn't help but said: "Actually, there are still differences. For example, some things about the Stuart family were not convenient for you to get your hands on before. After signing the employment contract, there will be no problem."
Of course, it's not that he doesn't want Xia Tiya to help with those things, it's just that the simple process doesn't make sense...
However, Xia Tiya has a different opinion on this: "That's what I said, but I think I have gone too deep into your private life before..."
Langdon felt guilty when he thought that Shalltear had just rejected Helena's invitation for him: "It's a special situation, anyway, Helena will ask you to take care of it in the future..."
As soon as the voice fell, a maid knocked on the door and came in, expressing that someone wanted to see the Duke.
Langdon couldn't help moaning, "Don't be Helena again!"
"It's not Miss Helena." The maid said quickly, "It's a commoner girl. She said she surrendered herself."
"……Oh?"
Langdon and Shalltear looked at each other, and they thought of the same thing.
That was the flower girl who surrendered not long ago and was sent by Langdon to work in a printing factory.
After the trial ended that day and sent people away, Shalltear was a little annoyed and felt that Langdon should arrest all those who had slandered him for trial.
Langdon pondered: "Indeed, otherwise it would be unfair."
He didn't do it before, just because there were too many tasks, and each one was more important than the other, so the arrangement for dealing with those little gangsters who were instigated was relatively late.
Moreover, as soon as he became the Duke, he began to search for people who "had been harassed by him, even his sister thought that the other party was not lying", and then declared that they were all slandering him. This behavior...
Even if he knows that he is indeed innocent, but from the perspective of a bystander, it really looks like he will start to torture him as soon as he gains power!
It will only have a negative effect on whitewashing his reputation.
After all, the entertainment in this world is not very developed, and there is no fun at ordinary times. We just like to gossip when we get together every day, and human nature makes people like to show that they are different, and they are more sober and wise than others, so conspiracy theories are popular.
Rather than saying "So, this duke is a good person and that woman is a bad person", they would prefer "That woman may not be innocent, but this duke is definitely not a good person, there is something wrong with it, understand know everything."
It is impossible for him to arrest all the people who gossip about him. This is the imperial capital and not his principality. It is enough to arrest seven or eight people one after another. If you arrest too many at one go, the emperor will feel that he is not giving face. .
Anyway, it's a little tricky.
But Shalltear had an obsessive trust in Langdon, so she asked Langdon on the spot what he planned to do.
If she had asked a day earlier, Langdon would have replied that he had no intention, but the flower girl's surrender gave Langdon an inspiration.
On that day, Langdon's thoughts flowed like a fountain, and he wrote with spirit. In front of Shalltear, he wrote a headline for the next day's newspaper headline.
"incredible!The young girl risked her life to slander the Duke, and finally got a stable job? ! "
[ps: Monthly ticket plus change at night]
50. Xiatiya's past (monthly ticket plus update)
After Langdon wrote the headline, he immediately began to write the content of the article.
Because it is going to be published in your own newspaper, the length should be limited. After attracting people in with a shocking style, just say what you want to say clearly.
Langdon had lived in the era of information explosion all his life. He saw a lot of marketing accounts, and the mere rhythm was almost there.
He first gave the flower girl a pseudonym—he wouldn’t know what she was called without a pseudonym—and then, from the perspective of a girl, he stood at the door of the Duke’s mansion at the beginning of his article, telling the guards that he would surrender .
That's the hook, and the reader is hooked right away, wondering what the hell this girl is up to.
Then Langdon didn't give the answer directly, but changed his style of writing, and the girl fell into memories, her precarious family, her father who was a gambler, and her mother who wanted to make money...
In short, after laying the groundwork, he described the slander of "a certain duke" in the recall stage, and then returned to the duke's mansion, where the girl surrendered in front of "a certain duke".
Then there was another sensational description, emphatically exaggerating that "a certain Duke" thought she was not guilty of death, and even wanted to help her——
So she was offered a job.
Well, it is very important to use the spring and autumn style of writing here, and not to write about the job given.
"Why?" Shalltear asked shamelessly, "What would happen if I described it in detail?"
"It will affect the effect."
Langdon explained: "I found that you all seem to have tacitly agreed that if I don't hold this kind of person accountable and give her a job, she will definitely become my maid...I just want everyone to misunderstand me as well. did that."
There are only four dukes in the August Empire, and there are only two in the imperial capital, and he is the only one who has been resident in the past two years. Even if he is anonymous, he will be guessed sooner or later.
Shalltear was thoughtful: "I see, you want to use this misleading propaganda to lure those people to surrender, don't you?"
"Yes, after all, I have nothing to do with this newspaper on the surface. No one will think that I wrote this article, so they will believe it as long as they inquire."
Langdon's writing was polished, and he was still explaining to Shatia: "Tell that girl when the time comes, you can go home and stroll around the neighborhood on the one day off every week, after all, the house is still there, so you have to go back and clean it often. "
Of course, while cleaning, it's normal to help him publicize the fact that "the Duke did give her a job", isn't it?
At that time, I have to ask someone to tell her not to tell her the real job content, anyway, let other people guess for themselves.
As long as there is one who surrenders, she will be paid a week's salary for her who has no salary and works for free to pay off her debts. Two is two weeks. She will definitely cooperate well.
There are many problems with this method, but at least it is better than directly arresting people in terms of public opinion.
Not to mention, although when Langdon first founded the newspaper, he really thought that it could be used to guide public opinion, and it might save his life at a critical moment, but he never thought that it would be able to feed back to himself so soon.
Driven by Shalltear and Roland, who was a businessman, reading newspapers has become a new trend in the imperial capital.
After all, there was no Internet era, and the mobility of people was not strong. Everyone only walked around their own homes. It might take several days for news from the east of the city to be heard in the west of the city. But now the newspapers have integrated these news, so what’s new? Things can be discussed, and everyone can learn from the newspapers.
As an alchemist, Shalltear also helped modify the machines in the printing factory, lowering the cost a bit, and successfully making newspapers affordable for commoners.
The temple supported education and literacy everywhere, and it also helped Langdon a lot at this time, allowing his fishing articles to successfully penetrate the hearts of many civilians.
—How successful is it?Seeing that someone actually turned himself in now, you will know.
The first time someone surrendered was a special case. Langdon was a duke anyway, so it was impossible to receive him personally every time. In addition, the new assistant officer had just taken office, and Shalltear took over the job without hesitation.
Seeing that Shalltear had just formally agreed to take up the post, before even signing the contract, he gave people a lot of work, and Langdon felt a little embarrassed.
He had a vague feeling that he was a little capitalist.
"I've been too busy recently, so I'll give you a vacation in two days." Langdon promised Shalltear.
Xia Tiya looked surprised: "A holiday? Why do I need a holiday? I don't need a holiday."
Langdon: "...? Everyone else needs a vacation?"
Xia Tiya is also very strange: "I don't know what other people are like. I don't understand those who don't like to work."
As a person who was born in a patriarchal family, Shalltear's obsession with work was beyond Langdon's comprehension.
Her useless brother is useless, but because he is the only hope of restoring the country, even if the country is destroyed and exiled in a foreign country, he can still continue to enjoy himself, sit and eat, consume the property he brought when he fled, and maintain a luxurious life. And no one can disagree.
If you feel that you don't have enough money, or if you want to please someone else, Brother Huang can take it for granted and take out the women in the family in exchange for benefits.
He even asked his father's concubines to sell themselves in foreign countries to earn money for him.
