"Stay for dinner, your mother said it many times. There was no room for refusal in Earl Hall's tone: "If you want to take advantage of your younger siblings, you need to speak yourself, and I won't help you." ”

"It doesn't matter. Feige still looked expressionless.

Seeing this, Count Hall sighed and put the fishing rod at his feet—all the interest in fishing was consumed by Feige's hellish expression. "The way you are now is more annoying than when you were hooked on alchemy and taking pills. At least you were like a human being, albeit a decadent and powerless person. But now you're like a statue, a figure called the 'Emperor.'" ”

Feige squinted as if he hadn't heard anything.

"Here we go again. In the past, when I reprimanded you, you responded by yelling and angry, but now you change to a dead face, and the effect is the same?" The Count shook his head: "As far as I know, becoming an emperor does not turn people into statues, maybe your magic has this side effect? What do you want to achieve? What kind of memory do you want to leave in people's hearts? An expressionless emperor and a majestic emperor are completely different things. ”

Under the Count's incessant preaching, Feige finally spoke, and his voice was very calm, indicating that his heart was not turbulent. "Sooner or later, I'll leave this world. If my plan fails, then the Yongli Continent will not be left, and I don't have to care what kind of impression I leave behind. If my plan succeeds, why should I care about impressions? The Emperor presents himself in a state that fulfills the Emperor's duties, not the other way around. Well, I don't want to talk about this topic anymore. There's a guest in front of me, and I'm going to have to greet it. ”

With that, Feige left the pond with his staff in hand. He walked in a hurry, summoning a magic matrix and spell runes as he went, and launched an arrow-shaped firework into the air.

Looking at the colorful trails left by the fireworks along the way, and then looking at the cloudless clear sky, Earl Hall didn't know why. "Feige is playing tricks?" he muttered as he suddenly saw a black crack appear out of thin air in the sky, rapidly expanding to both sides. Immediately afterwards, a man carrying a white flag and a backpack came out of the gap, and stood firmly in the air with his feet as if he were on the ground.

The fireworks stopped right in front of the plane merchant and exploded in front of his eyes, turning into two lines: "I'm not in the palace, follow the fireworks track to find me at the manor - Feige Hall." ”

Qian Jing scratched his head. "How did he know in advance that I was coming, could it be that a competitor reported the news?" So, he hugged the flagpole of the white flag, so that the realm of this rule magic weapon could protect himself more closely, and then increased his vigilance and landed quickly.

This scene had another meaning in the eyes of Earl Hall. "Isn't it the power of prophecy that you have prepared before it happens, and Feige has been able to do this?" he thought to himself, touching his beard and muttering, "Hiss...... If, on the other hand, Feige did not become a sculptural face because of the influence of magic, but deliberately did it for some definite purpose, is it possible?"

In Earl Hall's memory, his son Feige was only a good boy when he was a child and for a short time before he became emperor, and the rest of the time his mind was not in his right. There was a period of abnormality caused by fox friends and alchemical drugs, and that stage had been completely buried and would not recur, but it had left an inherent impression in the earl's mind. This impression made him never think about the real reason why Feige was "abnormal" at this stage, and only blamed it on magic.

A fish jumped out of the water and challenged the Count, who saw it and did not answer, he was concentrating on his thoughts. Thinking about Feiqi's words, the Earl found that his son was very obsessed with the idea of "saving the Eternal Continent", and all his actions were in the service of this goal. He had never thought that the sculptural face was also part of the "service." If the answer is yes, then what is the rationale?

It's clear that Fitch is alienating his family. He rarely comes, he only comes for business, and he never laughs. In addition, he had a lot of opinions about the earl's plaque at the gate of the manor, and directly smashed it with a spell, which became one of his few emotional expressions.

At the national level, Feige is good to the family's former retainers, but he has never been promoted. Aside from Eddie, none of his retainers came from the family. Even his younger brother and sister, he promised to give them diplomatic positions, but in his heart he hoped that the two of them would fail. What kind of brother is this, but what if it's also a calculation?

The Earl had been in the machinations of the nobles all his life, and he boasted that he had seen everything, but this state of "self-harm" was indeed very new. He meditated and threw away his past habits of thought, and gradually discovered a possibility that he did not expect.

Feige is doing something that could be dangerous for the family, and he's trying to find a way to separate himself from the family.

"Shhh...... Is he worried that those who want to work against him will attack the family?" the Count thought it was possible, but that didn't explain why Feige didn't take all of his family to the palace for protection. "Could it be that the danger comes from another place? He said that he didn't care what others thought, but he only had to follow his past nature and get loved without much effort, so why bother to put on a bad face......?

"Does the danger come from all the people around him? he deliberately wants to create an environment that is not in his favor, so that he wants to be completely separated from the family?" the Count came up with a theory that could only explain one of the results of what Feige was doing at the moment, and did not provide a reason for doing so, so the Count himself did not believe it. "Am I a little crazy to make such a strange thing in order to justify Feige's personality not being affected by magic?"

He slowly stood up with his hands on his knees and sneered to himself. "It seems that I am indeed old, and I can only conclude that I am talking nonsense. Forget it, no matter what, no matter how much Feige statues his face, it won't be bad for the family, what am I worried about......? I wonder if the guy who fell from the sky also stayed to eat. ”

Qian Jing didn't want to eat at all, he looked at the flagpole in his hand sadly. This flagpole is the core of the White Flag Grocery Store's realm, like a soul pact with all planes: as long as you are honest and follow the rules of the plane store, you will be protected.

The protection of the Styx shipping is in the broken boat at the ferryman's feet, as long as the boat is in the Styx, people step on it, and obey the rules, then all the damage suffered by the ferryman will only fall on a projection, and the body will always be safe. The white flag is similar, except that it does not have a projection, but blocks all hazards out of a certain range, and does not get close to the salesperson, and this range is the field.

Now this field has a radius of only thirty centimeters.

"What kind of monster have you become, how can you still compress the realm?" Qian Jing raised his head and looked at the white flag that had completely wilted, feeling particularly insecure. "A radius of 30 centimeters can only protect half of my body! For the sake of this half of my body, I must always stick to the flagpole, what's the use of this! It's like pole dancing!"

"Please don't jump. Feige's expression was cold, just right for a cold joke.

"Don't say anything cold, I've been alerted here that I've entered an extremely dangerous area and can't guarantee my safety, so let me pay attention and evacuate as soon as possible. ”

"Oh? That's kind of interesting. Feige said, "You've brought someone to scan me again, now I'll see where I stand in the multiverse." ”

Qian Jing shook his head, he didn't dare to agree. "Don't say these pleasantries, I'm here for something related to a toy wand. To make a long story short, I've found new orders, mainly because I've been authorized to sell this thing to other worlds, and I expect to be able to produce five to six times as much as it is now. ”

"I can't take it here, so you're trying to change the pattern?"

Qian Jing nodded and said, "At present, you are doing processing with incoming materials, which is the slowest point in the entire production process......

"It can be changed," Feige didn't want to be verbose, and said directly, "but there must be a few conditions." ”

"Ah, of course, I'll listen carefully. Qian Jing flipped his wrist, took out a small notebook, and recorded on it.

The conditions are nothing more than a few, including the receipt of benefits in accordance with intellectual property rights and guarantees not lower than the current level, the permanent retention of a certain number of orders to the Royal Workshop, the continuous production of which can continue to produce qualified craftsmen and the maintenance of research and development, and the new production department to have shares in the Royal Workshop and the Feige, and the guarantee of pre-emptive subscription in the event of a capital increase...... These are all expected by Qian Jing. But Feige's suggestion was very puzzling to him.

"You ask to let the wizarding world of the earth join in, and let them provide you with a large number of Floo Fans?" "What do you want Floo Powder for?"

"I never ask you what you're spending your money on, and you'd better not ask me. Feige said to Qian Jing, "The Wizards' Floo Powder is only sold to wizards, so the only way to get it is to work with them. I can make a toy wand that uses Floo Powder as a raw material so that they have a reason to supply Floo Powder in large quantities to the factory. ”

"Oh...... Going around the circle you want Floo powder. Qian Jing smiled: "Although the wizards have many strange rules, and it is quite troublesome to cooperate with them, if it is just a Floo fan, then I can get it, and I don't necessarily need them." ”

Feige slowly closed his eyes, then slowly opened them. "As long as there are Floo fans, I have no opinion. But there are many benefits to being able to make this happen, and you have to think for yourself. ”

The Wizarding Ministeress's Minister of Magic would love to work more closely with Earth, because dealing with the "Wizarding Separatist Forces" would require her to have money, jobs, and a stable future. And for the planet, they also want to reduce turmoil, so it is also possible to pass.

"Although I haven't thought of what the benefits are, I just think it's particularly troublesome, but if this is your requirement and condition, then I'll try hard and try to do it. ”

Feiqi nodded, then said, "If you can't find me one day, then go to the Royal Magic Workshop." My student and Minister of Spells, Thunder White, can also take full responsibility. But Floo powder is for my own use, don't tell her, and don't give it to her. The only thing she can't be responsible for is Floo powder. ”

Qian Jing scratched his head vigorously: "It feels like helping you save private money, it's weird, but it's not impossible." Thunder White ...... I made a note of it. Is there anything else to look out for?"

"It's gone. Fei Qi waved his hand and said, "If you don't have anything else to report, go and get busy." ”

"Okay, I still have to run a few places!" Qian Jing hid the small notebook close to his body, and then re-carried the flagpole and opened the plane teleportation. At this time, the smell of food wafted in, and he realized that he had finally come here, and he had not eaten food or drunk water.

It's a pity that the teleportation has already begun, it's impossible to turn back, and it's not wise to go against the White Flag grocery store's warnings for the sake of a meal or drink. Feige was able to make White Flag nervous and had become a dangerous person, and this astonishing speed of change also surprised Qian Jing.

"In the future, I still have to come here less, and if I can solve it with letters and consignments, don't use my body to explore the way. Feige gave Qian Jing the feeling that in addition to danger, he was uneasy, and subtly made him make a decision to stay away. "I'd rather give him more money — yes, Floo fans — than let him come to him. That guy was a powerful teleportation mage before, and he could tear through space with his hands. Now that the danger has risen, there may be a surprise attack, and before the powers of the earth can react, I will hang up...... What if the Mind-Shaping Ink doesn't save my life?"

Feige was indeed slowly and systematically isolating himself from those close to him. At family gatherings, he still looks very serious, if not with a cold expression, then in a fugue state. The meal was not interesting, and everyone was uncomfortable eating. During the dinner, Feige took the initiative to bring up only one topic, and that was to ask Langdon and Sheila to sort things out, get ready, and go to the palace in three days, where he would accept the affairs of the old nobles to them.

Surprised and nervous, the siblings instinctively refused, but were stopped by Earl Hall. He had a feeling that if the two siblings refused here, then Feige would not persuade him at all, but directly buttoned off the hat of "unusable and incompetent waste".

"The family will always have your back. The earl said solemnly: "I have thought about it, there are no nobles in the empire, and the sign of the manor should be changed." Nostalgia for the past......"

Before he could finish speaking, he saw Feige draw a vertical line in the air with his index finger, then tear a hole in either side and throw a fireball into it. In less than two seconds, there was a continuous roar outside, the plates, saucers, knives and forks on the table were shaking, and the crystal chandelier overhead was like a pendulum. After a while, the servant rushed in and reported, "Lord Earl, the gate of the manor has been suddenly blown flat by some unknown circumstances, and the door and plaque are gone, and only a large pit remains......"

"Hmph, fill it in quickly, don't affect the carriage. The Count now believed a little in his "nonsense", and he said, "Some people can fly around, but most normal people can't!"
