After two full days, the work was finally done, and the craftsmen were tired and stinking to death, covered with sweat, and the skin on their faces was black and red from the fire, of course, they were not busy in vain, and with the presence of Gudjohnsen, the big financier, everyone received a lot of money, although this money seemed nothing in the eyes of nobles like Duon and Governor Jerry, not even pocket money, but for those hard-working craftsmen, it was enough to satisfy them with a huge income.

All the grain had been made into popcorn or rice flowers, and then the coachmen brought by Duon worked as porters again, tied them firmly to the wagon with ropes, and patted them to see if nothing was missing, and Goodjohnsen went away with his men with a thousand thanks.

He looked at Duang's eyes in awe. That's for sure, because Duon's previous slap has left an indelible shadow on his heart, and the appearance of pies and termites later made Goodjohnsen feel that there are always some peaks in life that people can't hope for...... Damn, it's really better than people to die, and goods have to be thrown away, this kid's young age is so terrible, and when he gets a little older in the future, his strength will still be gained? Bah......

However, just as Gudjohnsen was leaving, Duon saw a faint hatred in his extremely deferential eyes.

It's shallow, it's subtle.

However, Duon noticed.

It's a jackal-like look.

Jackals, especially wild jackals, are not as strong and powerful as lions and tigers, and they can only retreat every time they encounter such a large beast. Stay away. However, they are not reconciled, their eyes are so cruel and ruthless, they are always waiting for an opportunity, once the opportunity arises, they will definitely pounce without hesitation, and give the most fatal blow to those opponents who could not be defeated before.

And now, this Gudjohnsen is such a look.

If it was before, for this arrogant and domineering Gur head. Duang was only contemptuous, even a little contemptuous, and now, he actually felt a great danger that had never been greater.

Not because of anything else, but because of ...... That look.

Duang's heart moved. I wondered if it would be a mistake to let him go back so peacefully?

I hope I didn't dig a bottomless hole for myself.

Hehe. I wish I had thought too much.

Send Gudjohnsen and them away. Duon stayed in the governor's palace of Chalmers for another day to take the necessary rest, unlike the previous attitude of slight contempt because of Duon's young age, now both Governor Jerry and the captain of the Donald guard have great respect for Duon.

In this world. Face is given by others, but face is earned by yourself, if you want to be respected by others, you must first have the strength to be respected by others. Otherwise, even if the other party gives you so much respect, you can't afford it.

Du Ang deeply understands this truth.

He knew that if he hadn't cleaned up Gudjohnsen before, even his identity and status would not have changed, but he was afraid that Governor Jerry would only be respectful on his face and go through the motions, and he would definitely not really pick himself up and go to his heart like now.

Duang told Governor Jerry that this was his last night in the Governor's Palace, and that when it was dawn the next day, he would have to embark on the journey again, after all, he still had to report to the Northwest Army, and he couldn't keep procrastinating here at the Governor's Palace. Governor Jerry nodded, and then asked Duon if everything was ready, you must know that the place in the province of Chalmers is not small, because of the vast land and sparsely populated relationship, the actual area here can even rank among the top three in the entire province of the Bauhinia Empire. Starting from the Governor's Palace, it will take at least two days and two nights to rush to the Northwest Army in the Sea of Death, and the current Chalmers Province is due to the imminent outbreak of war and the complicated relationship between ethnic relations, and many prosperous towns and small cities have become bleak and desolate no man's land. It was a desolate place, and if you didn't prepare food and water now, you wouldn't be able to buy what you needed when you got there, even if you had money.

Governor Jerry has not been in Chalmers Province for a long time, it has been several years, and his experience is far from being comparable to that of Duon, as the so-called listening to people's advice to eat well, for Governor Jerry's words, Duon is as good as flowing, and he listens very carefully, and Captain Donald Guard also adds vigorously on the side. For example, they told Duang that when they were about to leave, they should buy a kind of anti-worm and swelling ointment in the pharmacy of Roland City, because if you go further, you will encounter a dense bush, where there lives a very powerful black reptile, which likes to bite people, although it can't bite to death, but the place where it is bitten will be swollen, and the big bag is simply painful and itchy, which is unbearable. And this ointment is an ointment that specializes in the treatment of this little black insect bite, just apply it, and the effect is immediate, such a thing, as a foreigner, if Governor Jerry doesn't say it, even if Duon sees through all the information, he doesn't know.

Also, if you continue to go northwest, it will become more and more arid, and the water source will become less and less, and after inspection, Governor Jerry told Duang that the water he carries is not enough at all, because in that arid place, people will need water more and will be more thirsty, and once they go up, in this case, the water will definitely not be enough to drink, although the time of two days and two nights will not cause death, but no one dares to guarantee that there will not be some other abnormal conditions, such as getting lost, encountering extreme weather or something, If you don't have enough water in this situation, it's very dangerous.

Duon looked at it, and felt that he had brought a lot of water, on average, each person's cowhide water bag was at least three bags, and he asked Governor Jerry how much more water he needed to replenish if the water was not enough? Governor Jerry smiled and said, "At least, three times as much as now!" ”

"Three? So much? ”

Duon was shocked, wondering if this Governor Jerry was a little too cautious? But again, after listening to the advice of people to eat well, Duon knew that Governor Jerry would not harm himself, and he definitely had no intention of taking himself for amusement, since he said that he would bring so much water, there must be a reason for him.

Well, Duon humbly accepted Governor Jerry's suggestion, and let the water continue to be filled until even the wagons were full of water bags.

After all, everyone is mixed in the officialdom, and the sedan chair carries people, and no one can simply command himself in the sea of eunuchs, there must be a few good friends. And...... Isn't it always like that in officialdom, no matter how you usually don't like each other, but when you meet, you have to take care of each other's face, how hypocritical you laugh, how hypocritical you say, it's completely a face that cheats the dead and doesn't pay for your life. This is not the case with those who hate them, not to mention how pleasing Governor Jerry looks at Duon?

He smiled and asked Du Ang as an elder if he had made a family decision, saying that if he hadn't decided on a family now, then there was a good junior woman in his family, and he could contact Du Ang, maybe it was some factors that Lao Wang sold melons and boasted about, anyway, in Governor Jerry, his niece in that clan was simply a role model and model for young girls in the entire Bauhinia Empire. It can really be said that you can go up to the hall and go down to the kitchen.

It's just that he has been foaming at the mouth for a long time, and Du Ang has not moved, Governor Jerry asked, dare Du Ang has already been engaged, his fiancée, that is, his future wife, is the daughter of the famous Marquis Solomon in the imperial capital, it can be said that he is a good match, and Du Ang and Laura have known each other since childhood, even if they are not childhood sweethearts, but they are by no means the kind of people who get married immediately after being introduced.

"Oh...... You're already married, well, the daughter of Solomon's family, a good girl......" Governor Jerry smiled a little embarrassed, and after asking before, he didn't wait for Duang to answer, so he preconceived and began to promote the girl in his family, praising it like a flower, and it turned out that Duang was already engaged. That...... Even if it is really a flower, it will be in vain, according to the laws of the empire, except for the emperor, other people, whether nobles or ordinary people, can only have one wife, and the Bauhinia Empire does not have the custom of taking concubines. Monogamy, equal between men and women, and no one can disobey it.

Since Duang is engaged, it means that the niece of Governor Jerry's clan is no longer good even if it is. It is impossible to have anything happen to Duang, of course, in many cases, people are meant to steal, and many people have lovers outside, which is a fact that everyone knows. It's just that those things are secretly carried out by the two parties in private, and they know each other well, and they have nothing to do with others, not to mention, in terms of seniority, Governor Jerry is the girl's uncle, an elder, and an elder with a status and high morality, with a good character, think about it, how can an uncle introduce his niece to his niece, and let his niece run over to a married man as a lover?

That doesn't make sense! (To be continued......)
