Chapter 99: The Dowry (I)
The Confucian classic "The Mean" has a saying: Do not appear and hide, do not show the subtle...... Joy, anger, sorrow and happiness are not in the middle of the statement, and the middle section is the sum of the middle.
The meaning is that everything starts from the small things around you, and people's usual joys, sorrows, and sorrows should also be properly controlled, so as not to be embarrassed or even have big things when you can't control them.
Mary must not know Confucianism, and foreigners never pay attention to moderation. Forty thousand years later, of course, it is also this virtue, some things are just a brain, and there is no door on the side of the mouth, and the mouth is opened without any repercussions. Even if she (supposedly) has been the leader of such and such a galaxy for a long time...... It seems that this long period of experience as a superior has made her a little speechless.
Maria must now want to learn a subspace skill, turn back time, or keep her mouth from speaking for the rest of her life - alas, it's too late.
The events of the day were regarded as Levi's favorite concubine and the queen's competition for favor, and finally the favorite concubine realized her mistake and took the initiative to kneel and kowtow, knocking her head to admit her mistake and end it. Everyone didn't care about this seemingly interlude, but it was actually the main body of the dialogue between the monarch and the minister.
Now that the relationship has become public, Levi invites Her Majesty to come and inspect his territory to see if there is anything he can advise. However, the queen seemed to have a playful expression after listening to Levi's invitation, tilted her head and thought for about three seconds, and then slapped (Levi's) thigh and gladly agreed.
By the way, he brought 20,000 troops to play.
And told Levi that these 20,000 people were all full of holidays, and they were brought out to travel at public expense, and they definitely didn't want to demonstrate with him or be afraid that the other party would kidnap him or anything. Li Wei used his brain and thought about it, and felt that it was understandable, after all, it was his own leader who came out without some guards, which was really unreasonable.
Tessa is a real feudal lord and Her Majesty the Queen, and this head may be a good hand at commanding armies and controlling countries. However, this head can't complete the evolution from the Middle Ages to the interstellar civilization by herself - let alone her, throwing 10,000 Zhuge Liang together can't research aerospace technology out of thin air within their lifetime, right? Therefore, what she is thinking about now is the struggle for power and profit in the feudal state, at most in her own holy land kingdom.
Levi wondered if he could take the entire planet under his account within the year.
So Levi spread his pocket and gave each of the 20,000 Drow Elf Emperors ** (cannon fodder) who had just washed their heads a cosmic version of Kalashnikov (Violent Arrow Gun). Since the queen has brought all her wives, she should be her (young) old (wife) wife honestly. Seventeen and a half years old will be legal in half a year, and it won't cost much cosmetics to raise her.
Of course, now is not the time.
"Oh......? What's going on here? ”
Looking up at the southwest half of the wall, you can see industrial civilization. Some unimaginable sights are quietly rising in this world, and no local nobles, nobles, or lords will trouble Levi, because one after another, in the name of Queen Drow, these nobles are all invited to tea and then taken away to brainwash.
After washing, let alone asking for land, it is no problem to ask these drow elf nobles (usually all women) to be meat X weapons collectively. However, Levi is not mentally ill or psychopathic, and after ruling over countless planets with a population of 500 trillion after a while, he completely turned a planet into his own wine pond meat forest...... All kinds of beauties who are human and not human are gathered together, and they can be kept in captivity even if they don't play--just think about it!
Now, of course, the farmland is gone, and in its place, factories are springing up between the fields...... This word may not be used correctly, but it should have fallen from the sky. The factory is more than ten meters high, and I don't forget to put an emperor's logo on it, and I thought it was a castle when I opened it from a distance. Although this was not new in Levy's time, it ...... Throwing these things from a space orbit still feels very emotional. In the distance, thousands of slave laborers put the finishing touches on two or three newly "landed" factories...... Brush grout paint.
"What are you...... Drow elves already have? What are these for? "Even if the queen has been living as a dead since the age of fourteen, and has been sick until the age of fourteen, she can ride a horse. Unfortunately, Levi wouldn't—so now the two of them were riding in a carriage that wasn't too luxurious, and the bumps were a bit unbearable for Levi.
"No, I built these. Those were the big steel mills, those were the ordnance factories. Over there is the command center for infrastructure, and here is cement and ......" Levi pointed to the factory complex, where smoke and noise roared in the distance, this was a large heavy industry factory. However, it is a little different from Levi's time, because in addition to work supplies, most of the statues of angels, living saints and warbands near the factory are neatly arranged.
However, it was the Imperial Weapons Manufacturing Factory.
"What are you talking about? What are these things? "The basic manufacturing unit in this era is still an individual handicraft workshop, and it is of course unbelievable that the monopoly factory that will only appear in the big industrial civilization will appear on this planet. But...... From the perspective of a feudal queen, what does this represent?
"How could you possibly make something like this out in such a short period of time? It must be a drow elf...... No, the drow elves can't do it, it should be the entire demon clan mobilized to build some 'castle group' here - you just picked up a bargain, right? You haven't told me yet, how did you convince the Drow Elf? Don't...... Did I really pick up a good noodle head? ”
The girl looked at Levi with a somewhat strange look, which the latter thought was more out of surprise at the complex.
“…… You are in the carriage with me now, please don't say such explicit words, so that outsiders will hear how bad it is. Levi was stunned for a moment and felt a hot heart, and after coughing dryly, he said, "What you should care about now should not be your own throne?" ”
"Oh?" The queen sighed, seemingly completely incomprehensible to what Levi was saying, "Why should I worry? ”
"I'm so recruiting—" Levi wondered why the other party's reaction was so flat, "Don't you have anything to say to me?" ”
"Oh, come on." The queen suddenly realized, then patted Levi on the shoulder and said, "I accept your bride price, and after working hard to build an army, the world will be ours - but then again, these castles don't seem to be defensive, huh?" How did these castles become recruiting troops and making weapons? ”
