Chapter 1758: Golden Apple
Yue looked at Smith for a moment and then shook his head and said: "Mei Mei will not bring a real estate salesman to me for no reason, maybe you are really short of money to do something big, but it is not enough to let a priest come and sell me the castle, you might as well say anything directly, but before that, you should understand that the situation of Xiaomei's family is not very good, if too much money flows out, a stinky boy will definitely pay attention, and you may not be able to deal with him." ”
Smith looked around with some trepidation, and many people might be a little uneasy when they regained their activity as an organization that should have vanished at the beginning of the fourteenth century, and of course there were many forces that were concerned about the treasures of the Knights Templar who might have come to an eye on them, just as the King of France had done with the Templars.
"Are you worried about the safety of the castle?"
Smith said truthfully: "Yes sir, the Knights Templar have been nominally disbanded, and the existing so-called reorganized Templar Order is nothing more than a counterfeit, and we do not directly control any property, even the sale of the castle to the Xiaomei family has to go through complicated procedures, you should be able to understand our difficulties." ”
Yue Zhong pushed a piece of paper and a pen in front of Smith: "Then let's quote your price." ”
This time Smith no longer refused, and took a pen and wrote three words on the paper, and it was in block Chinese: "Golden apple." ”
Yue Chong's eyebrows furrowed, and he picked up the piece of paper and lit it in a candle, and he never said a word until it was completely burned to ashes.
Of all the legends associated with the Knights Templar, the legend of the Golden Apple is undoubtedly legendary, and the effects it can produce are undoubtedly very attractive to Yue Chong.
Yue Zhong didn't lack anything now, but he only needed to worry about his lifespan, and he didn't know in his heart whether decades of waiting would allow him to wait for the desired result.
The legendary golden apple, which has a life-restoring effect, can naturally make up for this lack of him, but the effectiveness of bringing technology beyond the times is not so important.
The first witch that Xiao Meiyan encountered in the witch enchantment from ancient times to the present came from a primitive civilization, which shows that there were magical girls in this world thousands or even tens of thousands of years ago, and every magical girl has more or less brought and left something that can be called a miracle to this world, their existence can be dissipated, but they may not have left nothing.
The Golden Apple, the Knights Templar, and perhaps the Assasins, who fought against them and were eventually crushed by the Mongol knights, may have actually existed and are far more mysterious than history has ever recorded, and the mysteries of a world have never been as simple as they seem.
"Forgive me for taking the liberty of having these artifacts in the Templars' possession of these artifacts, how did King Philip IV manage to wipe you out?" Yue Zhong had already faced a lot of confusion, even the golden apple only gave him a brief silence, and after the silence, he regained his unfathomable demeanor.
"The Sacred Artifact had been lost during Saladin's fall on Jerusalem, and those who fled with the Sacred Artifact had become apostates, and the Knights Templar had been pursuing their whereabouts, and since the Renaissance until modern times, there were several suspected possessors of the Hallows, but by then the Templars' power was negligible, so there was nothing we could do about it. Smith said earnestly, "Mr. Yuezhong, I hope that you will provide us with sufficient financial support, and we will share its power with you when we recover the Hallows." ”
If he could really find the legendary golden apple in this world instead of using the power of other people who did not belong to this world to obtain a longer life, even the court couldn't find anything wrong, Fan Hanshi might be so angry that he vomited blood because of this matter.
But apparently an offer from a stranger is not so reliable, and they may just be a group of well-planned fraudsters who want to make a fortune from Xiaomei's house and disappear.
"If Mr. Yue Zhong needs time to think about it, the Knights Templar will be patient to wait, after all, we have waited for so many years and don't care about this time. If Mr. Yue Zhong wants to investigate us, it is not necessary, because you will not be able to find any clues, and until now, no one will know that the Templar Order still exists unless we voluntarily identify ourselves. Smith felt that Yue Zhong would definitely hesitate, but he would definitely choose to believe in himself in the end, after all, the price he paid was nothing to him.
Yue Zhong stood up and walked behind Smith, holding his arm and raising it to see the cocoon and distribution in his hand.
"If I want to find out anything, no secret can hide it from me. The Knights Templar should have done their homework when they sent you, but you don't seem to know me very well, and if Tatsuya Kameme was here, he wouldn't dare tell me any secrets I wouldn't know. ”
Smith turned his head a little confused, looking at the confidence and inexplicable smile on Yue Chong's face, and he was a little uncertain in his heart.
"The biggest effect of your presence is to make me think that even if I don't interfere with the operation of this world, there is something for me to do, and in return I can trust you once, go to the steward outside the door and tell your request, I think the Knights Templar, who almost mastered the financial lifeblood of Europe in the Middle Ages, will be able to make good use of the funds of the Xiaomei family. ”
After getting Yue Chong's promise, Smith left a little dazed, he came with full confidence, and Yue Chong's decision was also in line with his vision, but there was always something wrong with him, but he couldn't find out.
Han Meimei, who had been listening to the whole conversation, waited until Smith went out before asking curiously: "I don't know if he is really a member of the Knights Templar, aren't you afraid of being deceived by him?" If you are deceived, don't ask me for compensation, even if you sell me, you can't afford to pay for it." ”
Yue Zhong poured a cup of tea for Han Meimei, sat back in his chair and said, "Too much money is not a good thing, isn't the Knights Templar also a lesson from the past? ”
"When Queen Isabella sponsored Columbus to find the New World, no one knew whether Columbus was a brilliant navigator or a fraudster, but she finally gained an America, a glorious era. ”
Han Meimei didn't learn history well, and she didn't even know who Isabella Yue Zhong told her about, so she patted the shotgun on her back and said, "There are a lot of wild animals outside your house, why don't we go hunting." ”
"Xiaoqing said in the morning that no one will hunt around here, so this time I will disappoint you. ”
