Mr. Wang, laughing, said to Jacques, "You kid, you are indeed a daredevil. ”

Jacques got up and walked to the bilge, saying as he went, "It's normal for the boat to be bumpy and slightly worn. ”

After a short time, Jacques returned, holding a bottle of wine, took four more glasses, and poured half a glass for everyone.

After raising a glass and drinking, Mr. Wang praised the wine: "Before drinking, it is fragrant and fragrant, the juice is mellow and heavy, and the sweetness and sourness are suitable, and it is really a good wine." The old man has also been to your country many times, and this kind of good wine is still the first time to drink it. ”

After saying that, he glared at Jacques: "You Castilian people are too inauthentic, when you received the old man before, you kept saying that you used the best wine, but in fact you hid a hand. ”

Jacques cried out in his heart that he was wronged, so he had to say: "The red wine you have always drunk in Castile may indeed be the best in the region, but this batch of His Royal Highness the Second Prince is produced in the New World. I only know a little bit about the differences, so it's hard to talk nonsense. ”

Mr. Wang was interested, but he wanted to ask why.

Jacques had no choice but to say: "The temperature of the four seasons in Castile is not very different, and the red wines that grow from the grapes are sweeter, more fruity, and richer. However, the climate of the New World is different, with high temperatures in the summer, but the temperature drops sharply just before the grape harvest, resulting in more acidic wines. I think you're more of a wine with this kind of taste. ”

Mr. Wang was very satisfied with Jacques's explanation, and said: "I didn't expect you to be young and knowledgeable, no wonder your second prince would send you to a secret talk." ”

......

Why will he and Jacques and the others go to the Kingdom of Light?

The reason for everything goes back to more than half a month ago, after the Transcendent Championship, François suddenly summoned Marianne.

It turned out that after the second prince François and Claudia disembarked and left that day, the whereabouts of Jacques and others were secretly followed by the Investigation Bureau.

So Marianne and Jacques came up with a plan to make a fortune in the Rand, and it was soon known to the Bureau of Investigation and reported to François.

Their plan was in fact a trick to deceive the world, and Marianne collected grain at a low price in Cartia, where grain was not salable, under the pretext of taking advantage of low grain prices and transporting it to the New World.

Then he took the opportunity to visit Claudia in the imperial capital, and secretly approached the negotiators sent by the Bright God Kingdom to negotiate the grain trade with the empire.

The Kingdom of Light is short of food, but there is certainly no shortage of other things, and there are always some resources that can be exchanged. Marianne is not like the Empire, she doesn't want anything but the Source Stone, she just wants to make money.

High-grade iron ore, precious metals like Mithril, or other scarce things in the New World were worth Marianne getting back.

Once the two sides reached a tentative agreement, when the fleet of the Vester family arrived at the port of Mousse, the grain was loaded and departed.

At this time, no one except the Vest family knew where the grain ended up.

When François learned of Marianne's money-making plans, he warned her at the banquet, telling her that private trade with the Kingdom of Light would be treason.

Originally, Marianne still planned to commit crimes against the wind, but she didn't expect François's attitude to change after the game, not only did she not object, but she also personally went down to support Marianne, hoping that they would make the scale of grain smuggling larger, and the things obtained from the Kingdom of Light would not have to be sent back to the New World by thousands of miles, the fleet only needed to bypass the peninsula where the Kingdom of Light was located and unload the goods on the east coast of the Northern Regions, and he would take it all.

However, Marianne encountered some twists and turns when approaching the negotiators of the Kingdom of Light, and the other party did not believe Marianne's sincerity at all. In the end, François personally intervened, and it was only after the two sides agreed on the intention of smuggling grain.

However, the specific exchange list and exchange ratio, the negotiators sent by the Bright God Kingdom did not have the authority to determine. Anyway, he still had to wait for the fleet of ships from the New World to arrive in Castile, and after François discussed with Marianne, he entrusted Jacques to negotiate with the Kingdom of Light.

He was one of the participants in this smuggling business, and François's people could not be present in this smuggling business, so Jacques became a secret envoy to the Kingdom of Light.

As long as there is enough food in the Kingdom of Light, the new round of grain trade negotiations in which the Grand Prince Charles participates will not have any results, and François wants to use Marianne's smuggling to fight his brother.

His role in it, the two sides involved in smuggling will naturally not be long, even if the unfortunate incident happens, it is just a treason act of the New World profiteers.

Jacques and Marianne thought about it and decided that they had a life-saving grace for François and that he should not betray them.

In François's view, what he did was to repay the favor in disguise, on the one hand, to make them make a lot of money through smuggling, and on the other hand, to get these people on the chariot of his struggle for power.

Regardless of Fabien, Lily, and Alixia's family backgrounds, François believes that all four have the potential to become grandmasters.

Especially Marianne, the influence of the West family in the New World is not small, and François also knows that Marianne's younger brother is currently in a hot relationship with Vanessa, the sister of Hofa, the mayor of York, and the Kusman family where the Hoffa brothers and sisters belong is still a branch of the royal family, and their influence in the Northern Regions is not small.

Marianne herself did not know about this, she had only received two letters from Graves, in which Graves did not mention it at all. On the contrary, François, who has the intelligence network of the Investigation Agency, knows better.

......

Seeing that Mr. Wang was in a good mood, Jacques continued to ask, "What is the legend of the Kingdom of Light that you just mentioned?"

Mr. Wang took a sip of wine and said, "This can be regarded as the founding legend of the Bright God Kingdom." I know that in your account, more than 5,000 years ago, there was a war between the gods of the heavenly realm, and we do not know the cause of the war, but the result of the war was the death of all the transcendents, the destruction of all civilizations created by mankind, and the return of mankind to the era of drinking blood and fighting with wild beasts for living space. It took 4,000 years to return to the era of sectarianism and nations, and then came Western Sahara, then the legions, and then the empire. Am I right?"

Jacques and Fabian nodded their heads, and that's about it.

Mr. Wang continued, "But in our Kingdom of Light, there is a legend that there is a city that survived the War of the Gods......"

"Ahh

Mr. Wang took the bottle from Jacques's hand, poured himself another glass, and continued: "In our legend, the capital of the kingdom of God, Royol, is the only place that survived.

After the Great War, the God of Light took pity on the suffering of the world and sent a message to the whole continent that he would open the passage of the Desert of Death, let the refugees from all over the continent come to Royol, and guide all those who heard the divine voice in the direction of Royol.

So the people who heard the divine voice from all over the continent dragged their families to Rojol with their families to help the old and the young, and it is said that the farthest man walked ten years to arrive.

This is also the reason why the subjects of the Kingdom of Light have very different hair colors and pupil colors.

In the Kingdom of God, the old man, who has black hair, black eyes and yellow skin, is the earliest group of believers in the God of Light, and the probability of awakening the transcendent is also the greatest, and his status is much higher than others, and most of them are engaged in research and sacrifice work. ”

Jacques pointed to his blonde hair and asked, "I've seen your sailors have the same hair color as me, so there are many blonde people, and there are many kingdoms of God?"

Mr. Wang replied, "There are indeed quite a few, not only blonde, brown-haired, and dark-skinned people. ”

Jacques muttered, "We know that from the period of sects and kingdoms, that is, four thousand years ago to the establishment of the empire, the kingdom of light was almost closed, so it seems that maybe the kingdom of light really survived the war of the gods. Otherwise, people who cannot explain the different characteristics of the north and south of the empire, and even the Bolians of the New World, have appeared in your country. ”
