The old guide took Adams and Jean to the side of the road, and a carriage stopped on the side of the road, and the old guide immediately took them to the car. The carriage was very large, with rows of small stools in it, and the people who got into the carriage sat in the carriage, about a dozen people. There was a large wooden box next to the door of the carriage, which was closed on all sides, and only a gap about an inch long was left on the top.

The old guide took out a penny and threw it into the gap in the wooden box, turned to the two of them, and said, "In a public carriage, no matter how far or near, it is a penny." Give the money quickly. ”

Adams and Jean obediently gave the money, and they could see that the public carriage was the equivalent of the ox cart and carriage they used when they went from the village to a town a little farther away, and that the ox carts and carriages belonged to the same people who were going into the city, and they could sit on the way and for a little payment. But these payments are worth more than a penny. It is unimaginable that a penny can give them a carriage ride in the city! It's Harran!

The old guide took the two of them to find three empty stools and sat down, and told Adams and Jean in detail everything in Harran, where the food was cheapest and where the food was the most delicious.

The old guide said: "There are public carriages to go to these places directly, and you can just take the carriage to go when the time comes." ”

Jean said: "Let's take the carriage directly to the destination, so we still need you as a guide?" ”

The old guide smiled: "I'll do your business this time, otherwise how could I be so cheap as twenty pence?" ”

Jean and Adams: "......"

Although he only did one business trip, the old guide was still very responsible, and helped the two find a cheap and safe hotel before leaving. With the old guide's instructions before leaving, and the public carriages scattered throughout the city, Jean and Adams got things done without a hitch, bought a bunch of goods, and were ready to return home. Alas—they were reluctant to leave Harran!

"Big news, big news."

The two of them were eating in a restaurant when they suddenly heard a man running in with a loud shout, his face full of excitement.

"Rhett, what's the good news?" The boss knew the man who ran in and asked.

Ruihe said loudly: "Didn't Lord Earl ask someone from the Ministry of Civil Affairs to count the names and numbers of residents in the city a few days ago? Because many people have the same name, it is much more difficult for the Ministry of Civil Affairs to make statistics. In order to alleviate the difficulties for the Ministry of Civil Affairs, the Earl ordered that every household could be given a surname. ”

"What?" Hearing this, the whole restaurant fryed.

Surname! That's a surname that only a noble lord can have, they are just commoners, can they have a surname?

Suddenly, one person stood up and ran out of the restaurant, and the others also reacted and ran out of the restaurant one after another, running in the same direction. If you think about it, that direction is the direction of the Ministry of Civil Affairs.

Jean and Adams watched the locals run enviously, they wanted to have a last name too!

Not to mention all kinds of envious and jealous foreigners, only the locals, they surrounded the Ministry of Civil Affairs, and the Ministry of Civil Affairs had to send people to register them and record the surnames they gave themselves.

"I don't know what surname to take, this adult, why don't you help me think of one, okay?"

Employees of the Ministry of Civil Affairs have long been accustomed to this, after all, he helped to pick up the surnames of many people in front of them.

"You're dressed in white, so you're called White."

"White? Not bad, not bad, thank you sir. ”

The next one also asked the employee for help picking a last name.

"You're wearing black, so you're called Black."

"Thank you."

"You......" The employee did not see any characteristics in another person - he naturally had characteristics, but the surnames corresponding to these characteristics had already been taken by others.

"Is there anything near your house?" The employee asked.

"There's a creek near my house."

Employee: "Then your last name is Brooks." ”

"Your last name is Stone."

"You're Benson's son, and your surname is Benson."

"Your mother's name is Moll, and your last name is Molson."

“……”

“……”

When Jean and Adams left Harran, they also had their own surnames. The lord of Haran, the Earl, was generous, allowing not only the citizens of the city to have their own surnames, but also outsiders. Jean and Adams begged the employees of the Ministry of Civil Affairs and were given two surnames, Gene had the surname Green (green) and Adams had the surname Perry (Perry) because of the pear tree in his yard.

Jean glanced back at Harran and said to Adams, "When I return to my hometown and sell all the goods, I will bring my family to settle in Harran City." ”

Adams laughed, "That's right, that's what I plan." ”

The current scale of Harlan City depends on Angelia, but Angelia doesn't want to be in the limelight, she can't stay in the West all the time, so the matter of being in the limelight and gaining fame is still left to Count Henry. This is the future Great Lord she has cultivated, and what she has done is to pave the way for Earl Henry. This is also the reason why Gene Adams and most of the people in Harlan City only know Count Henry and not Angelia.

The Lord's Mansion was built in the center of Harran City, and compared to the former castle of Count Henry, it was the difference between a thatched house and a villa. James is no longer the only one who serves Earl Henry in the castle, but there are Frank, Smith's carefully cultivated heir, the current butler Fred, more than thirty servants, and the guards who protect the safety of Count Henry. It can be said that it is only now that Count Henry has the true appearance of a nobleman.

On one side of the Lord's Mansion was Angelia's residence, which was still a small courtyard with three floors. Many people in the city wondered how there could be such a simple small courtyard next to the City Lord's Mansion. They don't know that the people who really make them live a good life live in this courtyard.

Angelia sat in the courtyard and made tea by boiling water from a small red clay stove. The tea was not the one she brought, the tea she brought had long since been drunk, and the tea was bought at a high price from merchants from the East - of course, not from the country of flowers, which was now in the midst of war.

Count Henry sat opposite Angelia. Over the years, his studies have been quite fruitful, and he is no longer the somewhat honest young man when Angelia first met, with majesty all over his body, and his temperament is completely in line with his current identity.

Angelia lifted the small stove and made two cups of tea, and pushed one of them to Count Henry: "Please." ”

Count Henry picked up the tea, smelled the tea, and said, "This tea smells good, but it tastes a little bitter, and I still prefer to drink milk tea." ”
