1. Poor aristocrats
Perhaps the biggest news in the year 245 is that representatives of the heads of state of the Atlantic Commonwealth will participate in the "Fifth Anniversary of the Livnonian Incident".
Peterbilt 389 was parked on Vilnys' Esplanade, with the tune of "Silence in the Garden in the Late Night" wafting to the car music, and Hucher was lying in the driver's seat with his feet on the window, holding a moving video showing the representatives of the heads of state of the Atlantic Federation visiting the "War Exhibition Hall" in Livnonia. "Cut! It's nothing more than a bunch of well-dressed foxes who want to resume normal trade with the 'Freedom Alliance'. "When! While! There was a knock on the car door, and Hu Che turned off the video and looked out of the car window, where two little boys, who were about five or six years old, were looking at him with their heads held high, "Is there something wrong?" Hu Che asked, leaning his hand on the window. One of the little boys asked, "Big brother, can your truck turn into 'Optimus Prime'?" Hu Che raised his forehead: "It's the same problem when I go to so many places." "Transformers" can be popular until CA, which is really a miracle in the history of animation! "He's not a 'Optimus Prime', just an ordinary ...... Or maybe it's a bit of a special heavy truck. "Oh!" "Will that transform into that ironclad warrior?" Another young boy asked, tiptoeing to a very old model of an ironclad warrior placed behind the front windshield. Hu Che: "I can't change into an ironclad warrior...... the two boys looked at each other and asked, "Then what can he become?" "Tiger Che was completely desperate.
"He can become this!" Seeing the small model of the Transformers in front of them, the two little boys excitedly said "wow", and glanced at Long Wen, who was holding a KFC paper bag in his arms. "Can you give this to us?" "Of course." Long Wen touched their heads with a smile, and the two little boys took the model and jumped away. Hu Che's face was on the side of the car window: "Hey! Are you buying children's meals again? The KFC staff didn't think you were a perverted pedophile? Long Wen was completely accustomed to Hu Che's sarcastic language, he didn't care, pulled out a french fries from the paper bag, and said while chewing: "I saw that the model toy given by the children's package is very good, so I bought it." Hu Che: "How old are you?" Also look at toys to buy things. Long Wenla opened the door and threw the KFC paper bag to Hu Che: "I originally gave it to him when I wanted to see the 'little mushroom'." Long Wen spread out his hand and made a helpless expression. Hu Che was stunned for a moment, then took out a hamburger from the paper bag and threw it to Long Wen: "Are you not hungry?" ”
The white seabirds let out a pleasant chirp from the sky, and the tiger put his hand on the car window and looked at the sky with a straw in his mouth, "Long Wen, those old foxes of the Atlantic Federation have come to Livnonia." Long Wen, who was eating a hamburger on a tire: "Hmm". Hu Che: "Think about five years. Long Wen continued, "Uh-huh" Hu Che frowned: "You don't have the urge to beat them up?" Long Wen snorted a coke "mm-hmm". Hu Che threw the straw in his mouth on Long Wen's head: "Hey, what do you mean by 'uh-huh'?" Long Wen puffed out his cheeks and said vaguely: "I'll just open my mouth, can you wait for me to finish eating?" Hu Che raised his forehead: "Alas~~" Then he turned on the computer and no longer paid attention to Long Wen, who was eating wildly under the car, and continued to surf the Internet for a while, and after reading the web page for a while, he shouted in surprise: "Hey! That's fine, too! As he spoke, he stretched the computer out of the car window, Long Wen raised his head and looked at a very magnificent picture of the castle on the screen, and slowly read the words on it: "Just pay one million coins, the historical Grand Duchy of Livnonia" in Roche, the castle (with property rights) and the surrounding land all belong to you! Hu Che: "We can buy this castle, a castle has at least a hundred rooms, each room is rented out at 100 yuan per month, in that ......case" Long Wen interrupted Hu Che's self-talk calculation: "There is also an ancient castle for sale on the Internet, one million will cost millions or even tens of millions of dollars for later repairs after we start, don't dream!" Hu Che put his face by the car window and looked at the flock of seabirds in the sky and sighed: "I'm also here to have a regular income!" Alas~~ Recently, the world has been very peaceful, and we are about to starve to death! ”
And while Long Wen and Hu Che were basking in the sun on the Esplanade, the vehicles of the representatives of the Atlantic Federation and President Livnonia had already driven towards the castle of the Count of Roche in the picture. The army was armed and protected around the castle, vigilantly observing the surrounding movements.
The Count of Ipodes, a descendant of the Count of Roche, was pacing back and forth on the lawn outside the castle at this time, and although he held the title of 'Count', there was no money for Livnonia, who had been in financial difficulties after three major wars, to meet the expenses of these nobles of the former Grand Duchy. The Count of Iberdes had to rent out the land near the castle to maintain the repairs at the castle of Roche and the high cost of water and electricity. "The two biggest troubles for the Count of Ipodes are dealing with the government servants who collect utility bills and paying the staff in the castle every month." After several arrears of wages to the working people, he and a loyal old servant were left in the castle, and a week earlier, when the two of them were having dinner, the electricity in the castle suddenly went out, and then the water was cut off, and the Count of Iberdes pushed open the gate of the castle, and the magnificent gate in the moonlight was plastered with utility bills, including several gas bills. Standing alone in front of the gate covered with arrears notices, he suddenly felt the infinite desolation of things and people, and that night he made an important decision: "Register the castle for auction on all the famous shopping sites in the world!" The declaration of guarantee on the website reads: "Family genealogy as proof!" You can't buy it and suffer a loss! Can't be fooled! ”
And just as the Earl of Ipodes was in full swing to auction his ancestral property online, a government requisition order postponed his plans. At that time, Count Ipodes had already negotiated the price on a website called 'Taobao' with a wealthy businessman named Aziya whose ID was 'Tuhao', and the 'Tuhao' was not short of money, and there was only one condition of 'immediately carrying his bag and stationing', and Count Ipodes had thought about what to do with the money, but when he was about to pay the money, the government came to the expropriation order at this critical moment, "Being an unkind person, and the local tyrant is very angry." "Eventually, the money in hand could only be watched as it flew away.
The Count of Iberdes and the old servant cleaned the banquet hall briefly, and then tore off the arrears notice slip on the door, and the two of them crouched at the gate of the castle and waited for the government officials to arrive. In the end, what was waiting was not the civil servants who walked to the door with their bags like collecting water and electricity bills, but the mysterious black vehicles and a large number of troops. The earl was frightened at the time, "This is to requisition my family for filming, right?" Is it going to make "Downton Abbey" or "400 Years of Horror"? ”
As a result, all the people who got out of the car were international figures: "Secretary of State", "Minister", "Prime Minister", "Minister of State", "Chieftain" (??) )…… Count Ipodes, who woke up from the shock at that time, turned his mind and asked the chairman of the committee in charge of his community next to him: "You borrowed my house to receive so many big people, and I wasted a lot of effort to clean up, and besides, even if it is only for a day, you have to collect a rent, right?" "What do you mean?" The president asked. The earl rubbed his hands together with a smile: "I don't want rent, I just want you to write off these water, electricity and gas bills that my family owes." The elder waved his hand: "As long as the big guys walk out of this door with a smile, all the fees you owe in the castle will be written off!" "Hah!"
In fact, this was the real reason why the Count of Iberdes paced back and forth restlessly on the lawn.
