Chapter 684: Gift-giving
Miss Yang and Knight Hugh looked relaxed at this time, even to the manservants walking back and forth next to them, they were natural and did not show any arrogance.
President William sighed in his heart, today is what a real noble lady should look like!
Others are also secretly planning to educate and educate the children at home when they go home, don't raise their heads so high all day long, look at people with their nostrils, and learn from them like Miss Yang.
The nostrils are facing the sky, and it is not good to see the road, and I don't know when I will fall on my head.
Hugh Ke glanced at these people, guessed their thoughts, couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, and picked out the most essential parts of the other dishes, most of them were given to Yang Yuying, and half were eaten by himself.
The way he eats is also one of the evidences that others think he is easy to talk to.
Hugh's movements are wide open and close, holding a knife for a while, and a fork for a while, both skillfully and freely. There is only one point, those so-called dining etiquette of Yonglan Kingdom, don't think about finding it from him.
Moreover, this knight is not a picky eater at all, he is willing to try any dish, and he has not left behind the dishes on the table.
Moonlight Island has also received many distinguished guests year after year, and they sometimes make the guests' various requests a headache.
There is everyone in this world, especially when it comes to food, which is essential, but no matter what kind of cook you hire and how well you do it, someone has to pick and choose from all aspects.
If you don't pick one, it's like you're a head down from others.
President William sighed: Today I finally know that the children of the real aristocracy are not so hypocritical.
Hugh Ke: Although traveling with Miss Yang and eating food is quite natural and delicious, I can't change my habits for many years, and the first reaction of any pioneer group person present and seeing the food is to immediately put what I like on my plate. You have to pick and choose, and it's never too late to pick when you eat in your stomach.
As for etiquette?
There are so many civilizations in the interstellar world, and the civilization that is more than a thousand years old does not have its own customs and etiquette? If they have to obey each one, they won't be able to get by?
They Nata, I think it was also a lot of etiquette back then, anyway, it was the kind of people who didn't think there was anything in their family, and outsiders were confused when they heard it.
But today, even if Hugh doesn't want to admit it, he has to say that most of the etiquette has disappeared in the long river of history, and the current Natarian people have long had new living habits and new etiquette customs.
Huke is an absolute liberal, as long as he is happy, he does what he wants.
Most of the interstellar pioneers are similar to him.
Of course, although many things in this civilization have disappeared, the cultural heritage still exists, and generations of Natan teenagers have grown up in the same cultural atmosphere, they are Natarians, and this will never change. Even if one day, the planet Nata disappears in this universe.
Chatting while eating, everyone was relaxed and had a good time.
President William also specially gave the prize of this competition to Yang Yuying in advance: "No one should object, Miss Yang, you are the only winner of this hunting competition." ”
Yang Yuying smiled, gently pushed her hand, and looked at Sophie: "Then I will borrow flowers to offer Buddha, and for the rest, Miss Sophie, you can talk to President William." ”
Sophie smiled, her eyes were faintly hot for a while, but she stabilized her mood, walked over and smiled at President William: "Elder, then please leave me all the purple cordyceps in Zhuoer this year, including the top batch and the purple cordyceps that are more than 100 years old." ”
William: "You little girl has a big appetite, but I naturally want to agree, our Drow Chamber of Commerce is a good talker." ”
While chatting, the valets around Edward hurried over with a large suitcase.
"The Grand Duke was fascinated by painting last night, and he hasn't gotten up from the front of the easel yet, so he can't come over to thank Miss Yang in person, but I specially explained that we must send the gift he prepared to Miss Yang to express his gratitude."
Hugh had a turkey leg in his mouth, and he moved from one end of the table to the other and opened the box.
As soon as the wooden box was opened, the golden light flashed so brightly that people's eyes hurt.
Hugh: "......"
Edward actually gave Yang Yuying a complete set of armor made of gold.
Hugh Ke picked it up and looked at it, it was actually very fine, although it was a little bigger, but Yang Yuying actually fit it better.
William et al.: "......"
Huke was silent for a moment, and wondered: "I'm a little puzzled, in addition to being good-looking, can this armor block swords and guns?" ”
He poked his finger and drilled his index finger into the helmet, and then pulled it out, staining his finger with a little gold dust.
"At least in general, it can be seen that this is indeed real gold, and the purity is okay, without impurities such as copper and iron."
The manservant is actually quite embarrassed.
It is not so much armor as it is a layer of gold made of armor, which tests the skill of the craftsman in drawing thin gold.
No matter how good the craftsmanship is, the appearance created is just armor.
The manservant's heart was complicated, but he refused to lose his master's face on his face, his eyes were clear, and his voice was firm: "The Grand Duke believes that only Miss Yang is worthy of wearing this armor." ”
Yang Yuying: "......"
She put on this outfit and went out to recruit someone to rob her.
And after this thing is put on, the defense ability is average, and one knife may not be able to cut it, but the two knives are definitely not just a matter of deformation and distortion, so that she is greatly restrained, and it is estimated that the action is a little bigger, and she is afraid that she will break such a delicate thing.
At present, there are many wild planets that call good armor golden armor.
On the side of the Yonglan Empire, it seems that the same is true.
But compared to the golden armor, it is definitely not this golden armor.
What could possibly be done?
Yang Yuying happily accepted it, but it was also gold.
It's not rare in the stars, but it's very rare in Yonglan, she has a lot of money to prepare, maybe a little more, and she won't dislike it.
After William and the others were speechless, they were also praised.
"Artistically, this armor ......"
Before he finished speaking, there was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps outside.
"President!"
The person who came was none other than one of the chief stewards of the Drow Chamber of Commerce, Harry.
William was suddenly a little surprised: "Why did you come back?" These days are the harvest season of cordyceps, you don't stare at the end of the moon, what are you doing here! ”
"President, look at this."
Harry licked his chapped lips, quickly walked over to President William, took a document from his bag and handed it over. Only then did he reach out and wipe away the fine beads of sweat on his forehead.
William glanced at the document, his expression was still very relaxed, he looked at it, stood up suddenly, his expression changed suddenly, and he came back to his senses and hurriedly confessed to Yang Yuying and them.
"I'm sorry, a few distinguished customers have their own use, I have some business matters to deal with......"
Yang Yuying shrugged slightly: "Please take care of yourself." ”
William apologized, then called a few other high-ranking executives of Zhuoer and left in a hurry.
The others just looked at it curiously and said a few words of gossip, but Sophie and Gaun were a little worried: "Harry seems to be the chief steward in charge of the Cordyceps trade?" ”
There are countless chambers of commerce in Moonlight Island, operating a variety of commodity trading, the most popular, but also the most important for merchants and buyers, but only the local specialty of Moonlight Island - Purple Cordyceps, the entire business system on the island is also based on the sales of Purple Cordyceps as the cornerstone to establish up, without Purple Cordyceps, there would be no Moonlight Island today's status.
Sophie's trip is also for the sake of Cordyceps, so far everything has gone well, she really doesn't want problems on the island.
Yang Yuying didn't care much about these things that had nothing to do with the Zerg, in addition to dealing with the big people on the island these days, she had been reading the feedback of the probing robot with Hugh Ke the rest of the time, and she was so busy that she didn't even have time to sleep.
Hugh Kedu especially admires his little junior.
"I really wonder, we both work at about the same intensity, no, you work more than me, how can you still have the energy to socialize with people outside, just act relaxed, just like you're here to travel."
Yang Yuying didn't take it too seriously, and she didn't miss any entertainment activities that should be there every day, and she didn't even forget to feed the lions herself.
So even with him, he could only sacrifice his sleep time to work.
Now he can't say a word outside, conserve his strength, and want to stuff it into his mouth when he sees food, how sad!
"I want to think about it now, whether it's time to break up with you."
Hugh Ke crossed his fingers and thought about what he and Yang Yuying would do in the future, teach children, do all kinds of manual work, and be a manservant for the little girl, no, knight, anyway, it's like ......
"Who am I? I'm Hugh, the commander with the highest bounty in X, the feared cold-blooded killer in the interstellar world, shouldn't I drive my black whale and play with those interstellar pirates or something? ”
Hugh Ke muttered for a long time, then suddenly stopped, "What sound?" ”
Yang Yuying also looked up, only to hear a crackling sound in the distance outside the window.
Hugh Ke had already pushed open the window and flew out with a whizz while talking, Yang Yuying casually pulled the window edge and flew out with it, both of them were extremely fast.
"Compare to one?"

Hugh Ke was also very bored, the whole person flew over the branches, and only crossed most of the garden in an instant, and when he looked at one side, he saw that Yang Yuying seemed to have slowed down, and it was getting slower and slower, and he couldn't help laughing, "Little guy, your technical level is higher than mine, my Alice has convinced you, but you can't do it physically, our nata is based on the world, the most important thing is skill, go back and I'll teach you a few tricks?" ”
Yang Yuying's lips opened lightly: "I'm sorry, my nose is too smart, I'm afraid I can only thank you for not being sensitive." ”
Hugh: ?
In the next second, he suddenly changed from a state of extreme speed to static, but the inertia still prompted him to take a step forward, and quickly drew it, and the jar that flew in front of him was a knife.
Click!
Hugh's knife skills are first-class in X, he is good at cold weapons, loves to use double knives, and when he dances the knife with his eyes closed, he can't splash water, and today this knife technique also plays a major role, not letting any filth pass through the blade and contaminate his body.
But—
"Gross!"
Hugh retched, tried to hold back, his ears were smoking, and his eyes went straight through the courtyard wall, just in time to see a cub, a thin child of seven or eight years old at most, staring at him with bulging eyes.
Hugh: "......"
The Natarians don't beat the children, the Natarians don't beat the children!
Don't beat the kids!
Hugh Ke immediately jumped on the wall, turned over and went out to pick up the child, and prepared to perform the world's most wonderful stir-fried pork with bamboo shoots on the spot.
Yang Yuying: "Do you still want that knife?" Dip it into ...... again Don't sleep in my yard tonight, find your own place to sleep. ”
Hugh Ke threw away the child and rubbed the news.
Yang Yuying faintly heard that he should be running in the direction of the bathroom.
As soon as the child was thrown down, he immediately slipped away, and slipped away without a trace, Yang Yuying did not chase it, but went back to the room to change his clothes, and just after changing his clothes, the owner and lobby manager of the Moonlight Hotel hurried over to make amends.
"It's all the guys in our hotel who didn't look forward to the door, which frightened the young lady."
Yang Yuying shook her head: "It's okay, but I'm a little curious now, why is this kid bothering you?" The atmosphere on Moonlight Island doesn't seem to be quite right in the past two days. ”
The boss smiled bitterly: "It's not a secret, three days ago, a strange thing happened to the largest purple cordyceps planting base in Yueyuwan, and within an hour, all the purple cordyceps were gone, including the most precious century-old purple cordyceps king." ”
Yang Yuying was stunned.
The boss sighed: "There are a lot of people who come to work on Moonlight Island, not for money, but to wait for Cordyceps to continue their lives, the child just now is called George, the child of the guy in the shop next door, his grandfather needs Cordyceps to save his life, but there are not many medicines on the market, and they can only be booked early every year. ”
"The Zall Chamber of Commerce canceled their reservation, and the batch ordered by our boss was just delivered this morning, but the child happened to see it, and I don't know who I heard it, saying that our family robbed their family of medicine, and we had to ask our boss to return it to him. The conscience of heaven and earth, our boss also procures medicinal materials for others, and every medicinal material set has its owner, and now we have only obtained less than one-third of our medicinal materials, where is the surplus for him? ”
The boss sighed, bowed his head and apologized for a long time.
Yang Yuying sent him away, but she was a little interested in the matter of purple cordyceps, changed her clothes and went straight to the place where the incident occurred.
At this time, Xiu Ke also forgot his idea of wanting to break up the gang, and quietly followed Yang Yuying out as if nothing happened, silently displayed the topographic map of Moonlight Island, and circled the Yueyu Bend casually.
The rest of the moon is less than bends, and the total is about four square kilometers.
But cordyceps is everywhere.
As soon as Yang Yuying and Hugh Ke arrived at the place, they raised their eyes and looked into the distance, but Hugh Ke hadn't felt anything yet, and Yang Yuying's expression was suddenly vigilant.
There was no obvious abnormality in the entire Moon Bend, just the swaggering purple color everywhere, as if it had been erased from the land.
Yang Yuying's first reaction was made by the Zerg.
Hugh Ke listened to her, and was speechless for a while: "...... Then this zerg is quite picky eater. If you don't eat anything else, just eat cordyceps? ”
Yang Yuying: "Yes. ”
