Chapter XXVII. allegiance
Under the cloudless sky, a small part of the original turquoise forest completely disappeared and was carved out into a fertile land. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
At this time, many hard-working Parisian farmers are already cultivating here, and the wheat seeds that have been sown before have passed the initial process of germination, emergence, rooting, and leaf growth due to the acceleration of the system, and now they have begun to be jointed, and it will only take another month at most for the wheat to ripen, and then there will be a golden wheat field here.
The ripe wheat is processed to make bread, the most common food in the French household, and the separated husks can be processed into animal feed.
I don't know if it's because Chopin's prestige is now at full value, or because of the extra hidden effect of the system, or simply because of the need to make the city of Paris better, the farmers in the wheat fields are all in full swing.
In the undeveloped forest area, which is only a few hundred meters away from the wheat field, the pirates who have just finished collecting ore have to drag their tired bodies to start a new round of cutting and clearing.
The shoulders that had already worn the blood blisters were still stiff against the round wood and kept running back and forth, no matter how tired they were, after seeing the bloody night of that night, these pirates also obediently cleaned up some unrealistic thoughts in their hearts, but kept running around with some resignation.
The only thing that made the pirates happier was that the daily food supply was reduced only for the first few days, and soon returned to its original standard, or even increased slightly.
Although it was still black pressed bread and some food that was about to spoil, after the previous days of starvation, the pirate naturally cherished the current situation.
And the reason for the restoration of the food supply of the pirates is not that these soldiers are kind, but because they are worried that the pirates will be exhausted by this, and in order to ensure that these long-term cheap and efficient labor forces, no one will mind paying some more insignificant food.
In fact, because of these more than 100 pirate slaves, the pace of construction outside Paris has been much faster.
At the same time, where the newly integrated grassland area is, one outpost after another is also being built rapidly.
As for the wild wolves that used to be the overlords of this grassland, they came and went like the wind, but at this time their numbers were reduced a lot because of the intentional hunting of the guards cavalry, if it were not for the deliberate maintenance of the ecosystem on the grassland, these most likely to threaten the safety of the people would have been completely extinct at this time.
Large numbers of yellow sheep and rabbits were transported back to Paris through outposts, and their furs could be used as food and into various clothes.
As for those wild horses that were originally unruly, they were also domesticated at this time, although they could not become war horses in a short period of time, but as a horse, it was absolutely fine.
At present, the city of Paris is developing rapidly, and the roads are being built rapidly, and a large number of horses are filling it, which can completely increase the overall construction efficiency several times.
"Chirp ......"
With a clear roar, the eagle, whose wings were more than half a meter long, swooped down from the endless sky, and when it was about to fall to the ground, it circled violently, and then landed firmly on Ed's shoulder.
After many selections, Ed finally found a satisfactory young eagle, and after a series of tedious processes of "boiling the eagle", "eating" and "bringing the shaft", he finally tamed the eagle that crossed the sky, and this eagle was the gift he was going to give to His Majesty.

In the gloomy cell, a bruised figure was pleading, but no matter how the other party cried, the beautiful figure in front of him was unmoved, just let the guards beside him whip and whip each other, until the wailing voice became smaller and smaller, almost inaudible, and the cold voice sounded.
"Damathieu, if it weren't for the Purple Rose family's sponsorship of you, you would still be a humble beggar."
"But I never thought that you would betray the Purple Rose family and become a lackey of Count Fordes, slaughtering your benefactor."
"But now, it's time for it to be over." In the other's desperate and frightened looks, Sherlay waved her hand in disgust and indignation, and the right arm of the guard beside her was raised again, only this time, he was not wielding a whip, but an extremely sharp scimitar.
And with the splash of blood-red light, Xie Erlei only felt that the boulder that had been pressed on her chest for a long time finally fell off, and the whole person was more relaxed and comfortable than ever.
Leaving her cell, Sherlay made a beeline for the Archon's residence, and probably because of some self-righteous thought in her mind, the guards around her saluted.
In the main office, Chopin is busy with affairs, due to the current shortage of French government officials, almost everything needs to be regulated by him, but fortunately, there are not many things in Paris now, so it is not too troublesome to deal with.
And when the figure of Xie Erlei appeared, Chopin was also stunned for a moment, and before he could ask, the figure of the beautiful woman in front of him had already knelt on the ground, and his face was surging with unprecedented perseverance and determination.
"Your Majesty Chopin, on behalf of the Purple Rose family, I am willing to be loyal to you forever."
Looking at the other party's sudden movements, Chopin couldn't help frowning, but when he noticed the solemn look on the other party's face, he also became extremely serious.
"Then I, Chopin, King of the French Empire, accept your allegiance."
"But now...... You may get up, Miss Sherley? ”
"Ah......" was a little stunned and was helped up by Chopin, the other party's thick and powerful arm carefully pulled her slender and white palm, feeling the faint body temperature transmitted by the thick palm, for some reason, an indescribable comfort and softness slowly crawled all over her body.
The soft feeling transmitted from the palm of his hand made Chopin's heart flutter, but after seeing the other party stand up, he hurriedly let go of his right arm, settled his mind, and only then spoke again.
"Then Miss Sherray, now I formally invite you, in my capacity as King of the French Empire, to serve as the Empire's Minister of Finance."
"With great pleasure, Your Majesty." Looking at the other party's eyes that flickered like stars, Sherlay was stunned for a moment, and then her fair face swelled with charming light.
