Chapter 118: Nobles Are Not "Expensive"

After thinking about it for a while, Zhang Longchu wanted to go back on his word, and casually found an excuse to refuse the promise he casually promised because he was impatient and didn't know the truth or falsehood.

But just as he was about to speak, he accidentally caught a glimpse of the wide round eyes and reverent expressions of the servants around him, and his heart moved, and he closed his mouth.

After hesitating for a while with a cloudy face, Zhang Longchu suddenly changed his attention, stood up suddenly, grabbed the wooden box served by the Shachong Ba family steward in his hand, and said in a deep voice: "Me and An Ti. Sachong Batuk had made a promise at first sight on the battlefield of the plane.

Now, since he had really invited me to be his chief advisor in accordance with the old protocol, I certainly had no reason to refuse. ”

"With your answer, my mission is accomplished, my lord." Hearing this, the old Gu Zhilai actually knelt on the ground and said softly: "Next, as long as you sign your name on the letter of appointment and hand it over to me for the file that belongs to the royal family of Sarawak, you will officially become the chief advisor of the Sachong Ba family." ”

Seeing that Gu Privateer suddenly knelt down and bowed so solemnly;

I heard that my dowry letter was going to be included in the royal archives;

Thinking of the shocked and awe-inspiring performance of the servants just now, Zhang Longchu, who knew nothing about the real traditional civilization of Malaysia, vaguely felt that the position of chief adviser of this royal branch was far more important than he imagined.

So he became more solemn and opened the wooden box and took out two copies of a paper scroll made of animal skins and filled with ancient Malay characters. At the suggestion of Gu Zhilai, he dipped his finger in the golden ink in the wooden box. I signed my name and kept a copy for myself. The other was handed over to the steward of the Sachong Pa family.

After receiving the signed letter of appointment, Gu Zhilai showed a relieved expression on his face, and said to Zhang Longchu: "My lord, Datuk has always been strict with himself, and he has never taken a day off when he served in the army, so he can only come to see you after the army is rested in a week..."

"I know that Gu is in charge," Zhang Longchu, who didn't know whether his choice was right or wrong, waved his hand to interrupt Gu Zhilai's words and said, "I will vacate the time in seven days." ”

"Yes. If there is no other command, I will take my leave. Gu privately bowed and said, and then saw Zhang Longchu nodding to himself, and then turned around and left the villa hall.

As soon as his back disappeared, suddenly, Pu Xin, who was standing behind Zhang Longchu, knelt on the ground with great excitement and stammered: "Master, Pu Xin congratulates Master on becoming a Second-Class (Second-Class Dato) in one step. This is really a great joy, and from now on, we can also stand in front of the door, and we can justifiably stand up the statue to proclaim prestige..."

As soon as he finished speaking, the servants around him also woke up like a dream, knelt down and kowtowed, shouting, "Congratulations to the master for becoming a Dato...";

"Sir, you have been Dato. We're all in the face, too...", and the whole hall was in a mess.

Zhang Longchu has been the owner of the manor in Kalimantan for more than half a year, and although the housekeepers and servants are respectful to him, no one has ever knelt down. Therefore, seeing the scene of kneeling down now, he couldn't help but open his mouth wide in surprise. I didn't know what to say for a while.

Later, through Pu Xin's explanation, Zhang Longchu learned that it was originally in the history of Sarawak, Sabah, and Malay, which constituted the Federation of Malaysia. The chief advisor of the branch of the royal family is equivalent to the acting official or ruler of the main line, that is, the sultan (king), and must have had the status of nobility for thousands of years, although his status cannot be hereditary, but it is also extremely noble in the eyes of the general public.

It's just that after the establishment of the Federation of Malaysia and the society of democratically elected government, the acting officials and governors of the main lines of the royal family were appointed by the emperor and changed to the referendum election, and the names became the so-called prime minister and governor, so even the chief adviser with a branch line lost the opportunity to canonize the nobles.

However, even so, in the people, the chief adviser, as the highest-ranking subordinate official of the royal branch, still naturally has the status of a lifelong nobleman, although there is no official title, but even if he calls himself Datuk in the royal palace, he will never be ashamed.

No matter how powerful, landed, and rich Zhang Longchu was, he was only a gentry in terms of social status, and he had not completely departed from the category of the general public, so even if the housekeepers and servants in the villa all relied on him to live, they sincerely wanted to please and curry favor with him, but deep down it was difficult to say that they were very in awe of him.

But when Zhang Longchu suddenly obtained the position of chief adviser to the royal family, the kind of fear of the aristocracy that the common class in Southeast Asian countries has been imperceptibly cultivated for generations for thousands of years by the servants of the manor, instantly had a specific projection target, and naturally threw away the bottom line of human dignity and fell to the ground.

After understanding this kind of internal information, Zhang Longchu couldn't help but sigh at different cultures, the terrible confinement of people's subconscious thoughts, and felt inexplicable that he had become a nobleman in the eyes of the general public, but he did not stop the servants from bowing to him, after all, he felt that there were too many secrets hidden in his body, and the more awe-inspiring the people around him were, the less likely it was to leak secrets.

So it was tossed like this for a while, until Zhang Longchu instructed Puxin to send a round of wedding money to the servants in the villa according to the rules of Sarawak, and the living room was quiet again, and it was already noon.

After a hearty lunch and a cup of black tea, Zhang Longchu, who had been bored in the world of strange things for more than ten hours every day for more than a month, felt that he could no longer endure this boring torment, and rode his bicycle to Kuching City.

Because he couldn't fall in love with young people's favorite clubbing bars and ditch girls' tricks, Zhang Longchu went to the city to watch a movie, and after relaxing his muscles and bones in the massage parlor, he came to the campus of the Fourth National University of Malaysia against the evening sunset.

According to the plan made in advance, he walked under the huge bronze statue of the sultan, took out his mobile phone and was about to make a call to Wang Xian'er, thinking that if he could make an appointment, the two of them would eat, chat, and study homework together;

If you can't make an appointment, you will go to the university library to read books and kill time, but I didn't expect that as soon as I took out my mobile phone, I saw Wang Xian'er and a group of girls talking and laughing from the right sidewalk.

"Long Chu, have you rested again?" At the same time that Zhang Longchu saw Wang Xian'er, Wang Xian'er also saw him at a glance, was stunned for a moment, waved his hand with a smile, and asked loudly.

"Well," Zhang Longchu quickly ran to Li Xian'er's side, nodded with a smile and said, "I was about to call you, Sister, I originally planned to invite you to dinner and review your homework if you have time;

I didn't have time to go to the library to read books by myself, but I didn't expect to meet you before I could dial up. ”

The period of greatest change in a man's life is between the ages of sixteen and twenty, during which many people can grow more than a dozen centimeters tall in one or two years, and suddenly change from a thin teenager to a burly young man.

Recently, although Zhang Longchu's appearance has not changed so much, he is also taller and has a bulging skeleton, which can be called a change in a month, and at this time, standing next to Li Xian'er can no longer see that he is a few years younger, so a girl on the side laughed and shouted: "If you can make an appointment, please have dinner;

If you can't make an appointment, go to the library to read books, who is this, classmate Li Xian'er, why are you so obedient in front of you? ”

"Cheng Zhuxiu, don't be full of strange ideas, Long Chu is my brother's friend, and he is like a younger brother to me." Hearing this, Li Xian'er explained in a hurry with an embarrassed face, and then said to Zhang Longchu: "Long Chu, I'm sorry, today is my friend's life, and we are going to celebrate her birthday..."

"It's okay, sister, you go and go about your business." Zhang Longchu hurriedly interrupted Li Xian'er's words, and as soon as his voice fell, the girl who was making a fuss just now said with a smile: "Don't go, Xian'er's little brother, let's go to celebrate our birthday together, the birthday party is to have more people, the more lively and fun it is." ”

As for this kind of character who is too extroverted, thinks he is funny but is actually quite annoying, Zhang Longchu's basic attitude is to ignore it, and finally smiled at Li Xian'er and a few familiar faces in the dormitory behind her, and he turned around without saying a word and strode towards the nearest university library.

After reading idle books for two or three hours, Zhang Longchu bought a garlic roast pork, lard rice bowl and a large bottle of juice in the only 24-hour restaurant of the Fourth National University of Malaysia.

In the days that followed, he continued to immerse himself in the world of strange things for more than ten hours a day, admiring the rapid changes in the vicissitudes of life, while consolidating his belief system among the Churyu clan, but every 3 or 4 days, he would take half a day to go to Kuching City to relax.

And because after the qualitative change of the 'world' of strange things, there is no need to accumulate elemental energy with the help of the time rush caused by the golden dice before it can play a role;

After Zhang Longchu completed the 5 evolutions of the wolf transformation technique and triggered the ability to incarnate into a giant bear, he could no longer continue to absorb the elemental power of the strange world, and at the same time, when the population of the Chulong Clan exceeded millions and was still increasing rapidly, and the transcendents were still emerging, if he wanted to further consolidate his faith, he could only show more miracles.

Therefore, when Zhang Longchu entered the world of strange things, he began to stop deliberately storing elemental energy, and released all the elemental energy he had saved before, and used various miracles to help the people of the early dragon clan to further expand in the place where the dense fog of the world of strange things was dispersed.

By the time the 86 years of the Golden Dice had passed, his followers had built more than 100 cities on an area of almost 30,000 square kilometers, and more than 10 million of them possessed extraordinary strength. (To be continued.) )
