306 Chapter 306
The second-floor restaurant has not been completely cleared, and everyone respects the royal family very much, but before the other party arrives, they have to retreat, but because of the rarity of His Royal Highness the Prince, they are very rare to want to watch. し。
This "they" also included those who had not yet left the Tro caravan, due to the actual size of the restaurant, all the people in the caravan could not live here, the leaders happened to live here, and when they heard the visit of His Royal Highness the Prince, they immediately greeted the attendants who followed the line, and wanted to meet them, for this reason, they also put together a temporary gift.
The restaurant is not very big, and at a glance you can see the people of the Tro caravan with some special costumes, and they seem to prefer blue clothes because the country is located by the sea, and there are some striped decorations, which can clearly see the difference from here.
"After dinner. Arthur said casually, I didn't expect such a coincidence, just now I also talked about the Tro caravan, and I ran into it at this moment.
The meals are carefully prepared, and the merchants of the Tro caravans are really very smart, they found their own cooks to come over and prepare a fish with the characteristics of the Tro and send it to them, the seasoning is very good, and the fly in the ointment is the fish that is not a specialty of the Tro country.
Arthur was not hungry originally, he just wanted to find a place to rest and learn about the national economy and people's livelihood, when he used to watch TV, he always saw those scenes of the emperor's private visits, leaders and the people having fun, and now he wants to do the same thing, or it can be said to be a political show.
"Dear Royal Highness the Prince, it is a pleasure to meet you. "The leader of the country of Tro is a black fat man, his complexion is obviously black and red caused by frequent sun exposure, and his slightly chubby figure does not affect his flexibility, and a bow is particularly relaxed, and it will not be blocked by a straight belly at all.
Arthur nodded a little reservedly and haughtily, in the eyes of outsiders, most of them were like this.
The black fat man did not feel left out because of this, smiled enthusiastically, showed a mouthful of white teeth, and gave them the gift they had come in, because it was made up temporarily, so it was not so good, but it was enough to fool a prince who had not seen much of the world.
The speculative psychology of these people hardly needs to be analyzed at all, just by looking at their performance.
Arthur looked at the shell products that were presented, this is a very beautiful ship, all made of shells, some places on it are also decorated with pearls, on the bow of the ship, there is a small mermaid statue, the delicate appearance seems to be alive, the eyes are two black pearls specially lit, it seems to be flexible in the sunlight.
"Very good workmanship. Arthur's reaction was a little flat, and compared to the exaggerated exclamations around him, there was inexplicably more refrigeration.
The merchants of the Tro country were unimpressed, and talked about their honor, and at the same time answered some questions about the Tro kingdom from His Royal Highness, and even the countries they passed through along the way, because His Royal Highness the prince asked, he was also answering.
“... ... It's a very long journey and it's dangerous, and we wouldn't have been able to get here without the shrine maiden's blessed magical powers..."
The devil's castle wrapped in thorns, the sweet temptation lurking in the forest, the country ruled by inhumans... The black fat man's eloquence is very good, although he tried to use short words, but every narration makes people uncontrollably associate, what kind of place is it?
Arthur listened quietly, and began to wonder if it was the castle of Sleeping Beauty wrapped in thorns, what was the place that tempted the traveler and never returned, and what was the country ruled by the inhumans?
Fairy tales were already a distant thing for him, and he had only heard them when he was a child, except that the little boy might still be curious about them when he was very young, and he would fantasize about what a beautiful mermaid was like, but when he grew up, he was not so interested in the happy life that revolved around the princess and prince.
Then, after so many worlds, the fairy tale is getting farther and farther away from him, that is, no matter how well his spiritual power is cultivated after that, those memories before him are not easy to retrieve, so it's okay, otherwise his brain is only afraid that it will not be enough, where can he remember so many things?
"What an interesting experience. Arthur commented, and then asked them what they thought of their country.
"Your country is a friendly country. The fat black man seemed to be completely unaware of the various persecutions against the inhuman that was taking place here, and he said this with a sincere smile, as if these were true words.
He bowed again and said, "I am honored to be able to come to your country, to see these different scenery, to see those goods that people are reluctant to let go, and of course, the most important thing is to meet a young king like His Royal Highness." ”
There was a pause in his words, as if he realized that something was wrong, that all His Royal Highnesses would be called "His Majesty the King" after they became kings.
- What a fatal mistake!
The merchant has never lacked a keen sense of smell, he knew that the situation here was not normal, but he didn't expect to be able to accidentally meet His Royal Highness the Prince, so that he made such a mistake, he quietly raised his eyes to look at His Royal Highness the Prince, the corners of the other party's mouth have been hanging with the same arc as if he had listened to the story before, and he didn't seem to be angry because of it.
"The most important thing is the virtue of His Highness. The right minister interjected and emphasized.
"Ah, yes, yes, Your Highness's virtues, virtues, are truly admirable. This sentence can no longer be fake, let the black fat man say sincerely, it is really difficult for him.
Arthur didn't dig deeper, of course he noticed the other party's relieved expression, because when he heard that the right ministers all called the king of their country like this, isn't it normal for outsiders to call "His Royal Highness the Prince"? Maybe this is the custom here, because His Royal Highness the Prince is too young, so no one makes him His Majesty the King.
"Are there any non-people in your country?"
Inadvertently, Arthur provoked a sensitive topic.
The black fat man has already met the White Queen, and he knows the other party's iron-blooded attitude towards inhumanism, so this question is not easy to answer.
"There are naturally fewer in the national capital, and those non-humans are relatively rough and not suitable for living with humans, so they will have their own places to live, because of the relationship between the sea, most of the non-humans in our country are mermaids and some marine species, they do not often come to the land, and they will not seize territory with us, which is relatively easy to get along with. ”
The black fat man said a little insincerely, every family has a difficult scripture, although their ships can sail, but they always have to be hit by the wind and waves stirred up by those mermaids, and some of them are swallowed by the inhumans in the sea as food, as for the goods they have stolen, they have suffered heavy losses.
For these reasons, don't look at them as a country near the sea, but their maritime trade is not developed, and they would rather trade in other countries by land for a few years, and they will not easily set foot in the sea, where it is not easy to escape, and the small ship is like an ant on the vast sea, and others can pinch it as much as they want, which is really unsafe.
In contrast, although there are also various risks on land, and attrition is indispensable every time, this kind of attrition is also a reduction of consumable members on the periphery, which is still relatively safe for them, the core of the caravan, unlike on the ship, once something happens, a boatload of people who cares about your status is ruthless.
For these, the black fat man had a lot of complaints to say, but because the occasion was wrong, he only said a few words and did not talk about the topic again.
Arthur didn't continue to ask, he didn't have a confidant around him, these were the White Queen's people, even if they weren't the White Queen's diehards, but they didn't have much loyalty to him, if he asked too much, it would be bad for them to have any ideas to go to the White Queen.
Because of the estranged relationship between the original owner and the White Queen, the two failed to get close after Arthur came, in fact, he had a kind of timidity towards the White Queen, and the other party represented an unknown force, which was likely to threaten himself, so that he just wanted to keep a safe distance, and did not want to get close rashly.
And the White Queen herself, maybe she is too young and doesn't have the heart to be a mother at all, or the witch is always different, she is not ready to be so close to her son, and the relationship between the two is as if they are not biological, which is also strange.
Arthur really wanted to think that the original owner was not biological, but whether it was memory or plot, there was no evidence of this, coupled with the degree of attention that his royal brother received from the White Queen, in contrast, he understood that compared to Xiao Transparent, he could open up some permissions to him from time to time, and asked him to participate in the activities that the other party loved, the White Queen still valued him more.
Thinking of his imperial brother, Arthur suddenly opened his mouth and asked Minister Zuo: "I remember that the Duke's mansion is nearby, right?"
Can let His Royal Highness the prince directly call the duke without adding his name and surname, the whole country, and only his half-brother, because the other party was disabled in one leg when he was a child, and did not have the ability to inherit the throne, after the death of the old king, he left the castle with a duke's hat and built a duke's palace nearby.
"Ah, yes, the Duke's mansion is nearby, would you like to go and have a look?"
The Left Minister's reaction was a little sluggish, but his attitude was courteous enough, and although he bent down unconsciously, although he was a little flattering, he was much closer than the Right Minister.
Arthur nodded at the black fat man and said, "It's not early, thank you for the story, I'm going to rest." ”
His behavior was not very polite, after all, the black fat man was talking about it before, and his attention was suddenly diverted, and even this departing goodbye seemed stiff.
"Ah, it's an honor to please Your Highness, good afternoon. ”
The fat black man bowed and saluted, his demeanor was calm, and there was no embarrassment on his face.
Arthur nodded secretly, being able to run so far to do business, sure enough, such a person, although unreliable, they do have enough things, businessmen, if they have enough benefits, can they sell something?
He didn't say anything more, but gave the merchant a few things and left the restaurant first.
The author has something to say: when I wrote it before, I didn't expect it to be just in time for June 1st, what a coincidence!
