Chapter 938: The Book of Eggs
Everyone has something to fear, and these things have different manifestations, but the fear itself is the same, for example, some people are afraid of sudden silence.
Durin's sudden silence awkwardly turned the air around him, and his eyes fell on his gift, a hardcover book, or hardcover, wrapped with a nice ribbon. The book had been bought after he had left the villa at noon, and he was not sure what to give to the princess of the royal family, and Maggs had already told him not to buy those expensive things, so he chose and decided, and finally decided to give a book.
He walked around the bookstore a few times and didn't decide what book was the best to buy, and he also asked the bookstore salesperson what was the best book for a young girl, and then the other party recommended the book. He had no idea that the book was an egg book – hard-boiled eggs.
The shell is very hard, but after peeling off the shell, the inside is white and tender, trembling, slippery, and after peeling off this layer of the substance that everyone loves, there is only the egg yolk.
eggs, and yolk.
The title of this book is "Elegy for the Holy Maiden", he didn't read the content, this title gives people endless reverie to read, this should be a book that praises women, and it is very tragic, how can this be an egg book?
Durin looked at the young man with a strange expression, the young man seemed to sense something, he laughed, lowered his head slightly and put his fist against his mouth, so as not to let himself be too rude. Then seventy, eighty, ninety, and ninety seconds, he raised his head and glanced at the book in Durin's hand, "I have read this book, it tells the story of a female knight......"
This is indeed an egg book, and the female knight will never be a real female knight, or the heroine is a female knight in the true sense of the word.
Many people who like literature are very similar to some people in the world of Durin's dreams, they like this egg book with a special identity, the female knight, how interesting it sounds, the knight is the embodiment of justice and virtue, it is exciting to think about!
Of course, this story is true, after all, it was written by a literary master who specializes in egg books, and was inspired by a certain opera.
The young man gave a brief but non-general introduction to the book, and Durin suddenly felt that the book had become heavy.
Think about it, maybe tomorrow there will be a joke in the aristocratic circle of the entire imperial capital, at the royal princess's sixteen-year-old coming-of-age ceremony, Du Lin gave a very egg book to Her Royal Highness, this is completely the scene of a large accident, or the tragic kind.
He skillfully tore the ribbon off the book and threw it into the bin at the dining table. He thanked the young man very gratefully, and if it hadn't been for his sudden interjection, maybe tomorrow he would have become the new laughing stock, giving a sixteen-year-old girl an egg book, even though the girl could be said to be an adult.
"Thank you very much, if it weren't for you......", Durin shrugged his shoulders, "I may need to go through a period of torture. He also introduced himself, "Doolin!"
The young man shook his hand, "Fast, a little man." ”
After the two let go of their hands, Fast continued, "I actually know you, and the recent public opinion has been all about you, such as the hero Doolin, and the news that you are running for governor. ”
This is also the atmosphere that Doolin has created, a heroic governor, and Hirsman associates his heroic image with the governor, giving the public a basis for more acceptance.
Everybody loves heroes, so isn't it a more interesting chemistry for a hero to be governor? Although politicians understand that this is, the people of the West love the content and the news.
Hero worship and hero being governor are both good news points, and with Durin's success, people will always like him and not dislike him. After all, the development of the west in recent years is well known, Du Lin has relied on agriculture and animal husbandry to feed millions of families, and the most amazing thing is that he has not gone bankrupt because of this, which is enough to make people look forward to how he will toss in the west next.
Durin smiled very reservedly, he tugged at the collar of his coat with both hands, raised his eyebrows and said with a self-deprecating smile, "People are waiting to see my jokes!"
"Joke?", Fast clearly had a different opinion, "Mr. Doolin ......"
"You can call me Durin, and voila, we're all young people, and we don't need those complicated processes!"
"Okay. For Durin's goodwill, Fast happily accepted, "Actually, I personally think that you have a good chance of success, compared to the south, which is more focused on economic ability, and the north, which pays attention to identity background, in fact, the west is very suitable for you." In case you haven't understood, the western part of the country has the most heroic stories, and in other places, there are even fewer legendary stories of heroic characters. ”
This statement came as a surprise to Dooling, and Fast went on to explain, "The desolation of the West and its mysterious background make it easier to see heroic deeds there, whether it's an all-powerful sheriff or a righteous thief, they are all active in the context of the West.
Even today, you can still see some heroes from Westerns who can take down a train of enemies with just one man and a pistol. Heroism is a very prevalent culture in the West, and it fits your current propaganda strategy, you have a good team!"
To be honest, Duhrin didn't know that there was such a thing, his understanding of the west was actually not thorough enough, mainly because he didn't have the time or energy to study the cultural color of the west, and he didn't go deep into the west of the west, most of the time he stayed in the developed western regions that claimed to be the central and southern parts of the empire, the culture of these places was closer to the south of the empire, the economy was the mainstream of society, people didn't talk about heroism, they only cared about money.
The conversation with Fast was very pleasant to Doolin, this young man was not like the older stereotypical aristocrats, he was very good at chatting, and he knew how to say something that Doolin liked to hear, at least he would not be arrogant enough to think that Doolin was a farmer and disdain to talk to him.
The two chatted for a while, and only stopped when Maggs came to him, exchanged contact information, and ended the conversation.
"Do you know that young man?", Maggs asked, looking at Fast's departing back.
Durin shook his head, "The friend I just met, a person who gets along very well, what's wrong?"
Maggs shook his head, "It's nothing, he's an alternative ......", and then he quickly interrupted the question and asked instead, "Are your gifts ready?"
Durin laughed twice, Magus must not know what had just happened, "Of course you are ready, I am sure that Her Royal Highness the Princess will like it very much." ”
Maggs gave him a deep look, "That's good, then I'll be relieved." ”
