After meeting Cassius, Duchamp felt more and more pressed for time, but because he had to wait for the wagons to carry the grain. With nothing to do, Duchamp and Goethe made an appointment to go sightseeing everywhere and take a tour of the entire Kasley landscape.

As the capital of the Republic of Calvard, Kaslay has a history no shorter than that of the Republic of Erebonia, and during the imperial era, the royal family was known for its extreme luxury and elegance until it was guillotined by revolutionaries.

In the city, you can see tall classical buildings everywhere, compared to the solemn crimson of the imperial capital, Kaslai is dominated by bright green, yellow and white, in the main city, the streets are lined with green trees, cafes and restaurants, it looks very casual and artistic.

There are two rivers in the vicinity of Kaslai, one called "Poli", which means "river of tranquility", which crosses the city center and eventually flows to the southeast of the country. The other, called "Angore", which means "river of wrath", flows from the north side of the city and eventually flows to the east of the country. Because of the convenience of these two rivers, it has been the central area of the south-central part of the Semriya continent since ancient times.

It has only been more than 80 years since the Republic of Calvard abolished the imperial system and changed to a republic, and the former imperial palace has been transformed into a national museum, and you can enter and visit it by buying a ticket. This is not the same as Duchamp's meeting with Cassius. Anyway, when they had nothing to do, Duchamp and Goethe also bought tickets to visit it.

The National Museum exhibits masterpieces that show the cultural and artistic aspects of Calvard as a country with a long history, as well as the extravagance of the imperial life. Duchamp enters a display hall where various luxury items used by the last king are displayed, including a toilet made of gold and an ashtray carved from emerald stone.

On the explanatory board of the exhibition hall, the abolition of the monarchy in 1110, the establishment of the Republic of Calvard and the execution of the former king are told.

Many of the items on display are replicas, including the king's crown, scepter, and the queen's necklace and robes, all of which are housed in underground vaults. Duchamp was originally interested in these things, but when he saw the gold toilet reflecting the brilliance of brass, and the big pearl in the queen's crown was replaced by a plastic bead, he couldn't help but complain: "Nima put the real gold toilet here and it won't volatilize, the crown is also decent, and the queen's necklace, not the world's largest natural blue stone, how did it become sappher."

Visitors shook their heads at these botched imitations and walked out.

Most of the artworks in the back are genuine, and for the purpose of supplementing information, Duchamp browsed all the artworks, while Goethe was already on the sidelines, yawning incessantly.

Coming out the back door of the National Museum, suddenly, a building flashed Duchamp's dog's eye. Duchamp wiped his eyes and wiped them, and yes, it read "Cinema". Duchamp excitedly pointed to the line and asked Goethe, "What is that building?" ”

Goethe kindly explained: "It's a theater, and you want to see a movie made by someone else on a machine?" ”

Duchamp nodded hurriedly, how can you miss the movies of this era.

The two bought tickets and walked in, and after a while, the sound of mechanical gear transmission was heard, and a continuous picture was displayed on the white screen in front of them, which seemed to be some epic drama.

To be precise, it is a classic stage play preserved by film photography technology, and the actors in it perform with a typical stage style, with exaggerated and precise expressions, and the expression should be an epic in the history of the Republic, and the performance alone is also very interesting.

However, the equipment used is not up to the level of a movie camera, the picture lag is very serious, there is noise everywhere, the sound and picture are not synchronized, and the lip shape is basically not matched. But it's also a movie, and it's a color movie.

"Oh my God, this effect is blinding the dog's eyes and hindering the health of the eyes, and you must toss out the high-precision movie camera when you turn around." After watching it for more than 20 minutes, Duchamp couldn't bear it anymore and stabbed Goethe, who was still watching with relish, and the two withdrew from the theater.

"Today's repertoire is not good, I have watched fighting movies before, and it looks very exciting!" Goethe said regretfully.

Duchamp pursed his lips, just this rough picture, it really couldn't get into his eyes. He asks an important question: "Why haven't you seen this thing in the Empire?" ”

Goethe said with dismay: "I have heard that the empire admired the high arts, and only enjoyed the beautiful scenery of stage opera, and there was no market for such things there. Moreover, these films, with many of the content that exaggerates violence, cannot survive the censorship of the empire, and on the mainland, it is only popular in the republic. ”

After walking two more blocks, it looked like an area where the noble crowd gathered, and the further you went, the more shops there became, and on one side of a square park, you finally saw the specialty store of the Urnu Society.

Goethe looked at the two guide cars parked in front of the Urnu Society, and he couldn't take his eyes off them, they were two off-road guide cars, painted army green, with wild tires, rough shapes, and steel torsos, no man would not like them.

Goethe jumped into the cab, patted his hand on the steering wheel of the sample car, and imagined himself galloping through the wilderness: "The corps should be armed with this." ”

Duchamp sat in the co-pilot's seat, knocked around, and sneered: "No shock absorption system, no air conditioning, no car speakers, good guys, the windshield is just ordinary glass, and it will shatter after a few more shocks." ”

Looking at the whole car, Duchamp couldn't help but shake his head, in his opinion, this car is a steel frame with four tires on it, and a steering wheel is installed on the steel frame, which is so rough that it can't be rougher anymore.

Goethe ignored him and went into the shop to ask about the price of the SUV parked in front of the door.

"It is a modified version of a military vehicle, adapting to mountainous and desert environments, with superior performance, and only needs 1.8 million meters."

"What?"

Hearing the BMW-class price of this tractor, Duchamp gasped.

Goethe was also dejected, and his frugal father would not have spent the money.

Duchamp came out, looked at the front and back of the car again, and even opened the tail box and studied it carefully, kept a copy of the basic data, and calculated the cost in his heart, which was estimated to be no more than 180,000 meters. He pondered: "Otherwise, if you change your career to build a car, you will be ten times more profitable." ”

The two of them pondered their own thoughts, and walked out of the door of Urnu's shop.

On both sides of the Urnu store, there are a number of high-end general stores. Goethe was struck and had no intention of going any further, so the two of them followed the road on the right and found the right direction back to Little Oriental Street.

After walking for a while, Duchamp jerked Goethe's clothes: "This road has connotations!" ”

Goethe's eyes had long since stopped looking, and he looked straight at the various scantily clad girls on the side of the road.

Those soliciting girls, as soon as they saw that these two junior brothers couldn't walk, hugged them and grabbed their arms.

"Handsome guy, come to our house, we have a southern water spirit girl in our house, a color of lap dance."

"Go, don't listen to her, our family is blonde and black-haired, and there are all kinds of girls from the East and the West."

"Our family's consumption is discounted today, and there are cute young girls performing."

Duchamp understood, it turned out that this was still some regular nightclub solicitation, and the real warblers were still in the deeper alleys. Goethe was completely overwhelmed, pulled by several bunny girls, seriously thinking about which one would be better.

Suddenly, a hand reached into Duchamp's arm, and he went straight to the special watch on Duchamp's left hand. As soon as his fingers touched the bracelet of the watch, Duchamp suddenly entered a state of battle, instinctively reached out and grabbed the thief's wrist, forcing everyone away, and with a shake of his hand, the thief had already knelt on the ground.

Goethe reflexively jumped out of the circle of beautiful women, and when he saw Duchamp knocking a crudely dressed woman to the ground, he suddenly realized that he had met a thief. He hurriedly checked his belongings, but fortunately they were not missing.

Duchamp looked at the woman, with an oriental face, felt pity in his heart, and didn't want to send her to the police station, snorted coldly, felt that nothing was missing, and strode away with Goethe, but the charm just now had disappeared without a trace.

When the group of soliciting girls saw that the business they were about to get was ruined, they pounced on the pickpockets on the ground with their teeth and claws, and scolded sharply while using the trick of scratching and tearing: "Little slut, who let you come to this street to forage for food!" ”

Goethe looked back and saw the bunny girl transform into a tyrannosaurus, and in the blink of an eye, the pickpocket covered her torn clothes and covered in blood, quickly fled towards the alley, and couldn't help but gasp.

Back at the Daji Hotel, where Fried was entertaining Jim, a grain merchant, in his room, when he saw Goethe and Duchamp returning, he said happily: "Jim has booked three wagons the day after tomorrow, and we will also take the train the day after tomorrow to the Autonomous Prefecture of Leman." ”
