258 Introduction
In the evening, Chen Xiansong took Bai Min and took a carriage to the gate of the City Lord's Mansion.
The owner here, the old city lord Tor Hua, has been waiting at the door with Zelonger for a long time. As soon as Chen Xiansong and Bai Min got off the carriage, they were very ceremoniously welcomed into the city lord's mansion, and after the routine aristocratic visit ceremony, the old city lord took him to his study on the third floor, invited him to sit down, and then retreated left and right, and said: "Udier and I are very good friends, and you have now become friends with Zelonger, this is the continuation of the friendship of the previous generation, the beginning of the great friendship between our two families, and it will last forever." ”
I have to say that although the old city lord was born in the military, he has been in a high position for a long time, and he also knows how to speak.
It's just that Chen Xian has not been a nobleman for a long time now, and he has not been contaminated with the bad problems of this era at all, but he directly cut to the chase: "This is a natural thing." Your Excellency, Old City Lord, I have come this time to talk to you about the Dolan family. ”
If it were to be another civil official, seeing Chen Xiansong so 'eager', he would definitely feel that he was not stable enough, but the old lord was born in the military, and he liked young people with such a personality very much. He laughed twice: "Okay, since Your Excellency is so direct, then I will also be more cheerful." According to the information we have received, the Dolan family has begun preparations to invade our kingdom of Kate. After all, you must also understand the current situation in China, and if it were me, you would also feel that this is an excellent opportunity. ”
Chen Xiansong nodded, now that the Kate Kingdom is in internal friction, the news should have spread all over the continent a long time ago, as long as it is an army with a little ambition, it will feel that this is an opportunity, not to mention that Tachibana Thorn and Kate Kingdom have a feud, and it is a strange thing that they have no ideas.
"So. The specific deployment of the Dolan family, or the general route of the march, can you find out the old city lord? Chen Xiansong asked.
The old city lord shook his head: "The traitor we sent out did not enter the core layer of the Dolan family, and it is already very good to be able to spread so much news." Next is the matter of our army. It's just that I'm a little weird. He glanced at Bai Min, who was standing behind him, and said, "About a year ago, the Dolan family suffered a big loss in Graystone Village, and I can understand their desire for revenge, but they failed again. That's something I don't think anyone will like. Therefore, I think they must have found a way to restrain Ms. Bai Min, so they had the confidence to plan this operation. ”
Chen Xiansong understood what the other party meant, and the old city lord asked him to pay attention to protecting Bai Min. The Sun Servant is indeed powerful, but not a god in the true sense of the word. There will still be weaknesses, or the other party may know some secret information.
"So. This time, I'll have Verder and the Scout Team personally stationed near Greystone. The old city lord smiled: "We are friends. We should advance and retreat together. Of course, if Ms. Bai Min needs any help, please feel free to say so, and we will do our best to help. ”
Verder is the most promising cavalry scout leader in Black Rock City, a sworn friend of Zeronl and his squire knight. He was sent to protect Chen Xiansong and Greystone Village. It is already a good proof of the sincerity of the City Lord's Mansion. After getting the information he wanted, Chen Xiansong chatted with the old city lord for a short time, and then retreated and returned to the castle at night.
He told Bai Qianxin the news. The sleepy-eyed cyborg immediately came to her senses, she walked around the room twice, and said, "In that case, then I'll go to the other party to find out the information, if you talk about the ability to infiltrate, I'm definitely not better than anyone else." ”
"It's too dangerous!" Chen Xiansong shook his head.
"Don't worry, even if I am discovered, who can keep me." Bai Qianxin enjoyed Chen Xiansong's concern, she smiled and kissed the young man on the forehead, and then began to prepare.
Unlike Bai Min, Bai Qianxin has the ability to think and act independently. Chen Xiansong didn't want to use 'permission' to order her, and finally had to agree, before Bai Qianxin left home, Chen Xiansong kept telling her to be careful in everything, if she encounters any situation, come back directly, as long as she returns to the village and joins forces with Bai Min, he feels that there is no one in the world who is the opponent of the two of them.
Time went back a few days, and Catherine was quite stressed these days, and she had been worried that Chen Xiansong would enter her room or summon herself to his room. To teach a person who is about ten years younger than herself, as long as you are a normal woman, you will feel cramped and uneasy. Although she has long been conscious, stretching out her head and shrinking her head is also a knife, but a woman is a woman after all, and it is a normal reaction to be a little wavering when encountering things.
But Chen Xiansong has not had any abnormal situation in the past few days, as usual, it is still a simple life of eating, going to the association, going home, and sleeping. Bai Min seemed to get used to Chen Xiansong again, and the distance between the two changed back to its original appearance. Of course, this is only the surface, in fact, many things have changed invisibly.
In the past, Chen Xiansong liked to roll around on the bed with Bai Min in his arms, but now he didn't dare, as long as he touched Bai Min or Bai Qianxin, he had a very urgent urge to press the two under him. He felt that this was very bad, a bad idea to insult these two relatives, and whenever this happened, he would find an excuse to walk away by himself, go back to his room to meditate, and calm his mind. Almost all men are very pure at first, they think that their goddess never farts, never has any indecent movements, and any of her actions will be like the moon, pure and flawless.
In fact, Chen Xiansong now more or less has such a complex, in his opinion, Xiao Min and Sister Qianxin are both his relatives, and they are his favorite women, if he has an impulse to vent his desires and get the two of them, it will be a shameful blasphemy.
That morning, he was in the association to give instructions on the planning documents he had handed in, but in fact there was not much to do. The total population of Black Rock City will not exceed 200,000, a small number of people means less things, and the association itself has a strong deterrent effect, no one dares to make a mistake, Chen Xiansong only needs to estimate whether the association's activities and plans will cause damage to the association, or not let the association's activities affect his reputation. This was originally a very simple matter for him, especially after staying in this position for a long time and getting familiar with the information of the big and small nobles in the city, it was easier to deal with.
It's early autumn, and the weather is starting to change from hot to refreshing. The autumn breeze outside blew in through the window, the pages on the table rattled, Bai Min stood quietly behind Chen Xiansong, and the autumn wind also blew the hair hanging from her ears. Looking at Chen Xiansong's trivial matters in the association, there was a smile on the corner of her mouth that she didn't know what to do.
Not long after, there was a knock on the door of the room, Chen Xiansong came in, and then the door was pushed open, and it was Ze Longer.
"Why, you're still dealing with government affairs!" Ze Long'er unceremoniously pulled a chair and sat on his own, then stilted up Erlang's feet and smiled: "You are really diligent, but this is not a good thing, as a leader, you just need to draw an outline, and let the subordinates do it, otherwise you will be busier in the future." ”
Chen Xiansong withdrew his gaze from the page, he put down the quill pen, and said with a smile: "It's better to have something to do than nothing to do, you came to me, not just to chat with me, what is the matter?" ”
"You're getting smarter now." Zelonger's hair has been cut short and combed back, with the shrewd and capable temperament of a noble and successful person: "The news of our salt production has spread in the city. You should know about this. ”
Chen Xiansong nodded, this matter could only be concealed for a short period of time, and it was not surprising that it was known.
"Now you're the most high-profile person in town." Zelonger laughed self-deprecatingly: "I'm under a lot of pressure for this, both psychologically and socially!" ”
"What do you mean!" Chen Xiansong was a little strange.
"In our Black Rock City, although there are no big nobles, there are also a lot of small and medium-sized nobles. They are also a lot of momentum. Ze Longer paused for a moment and said: "After they knew that the salt making recipe was provided by you, they all focused their attention on you, and there are countless people who want to be close to you, but you are a relatively noble person, a contemplative soul, and a president, but you are not an object that ordinary nobles can climb, and secondly, they are not familiar with you, and they dare not come to visit without your invitation." At the inauguration ceremony, there were many people who came to congratulate you, but if you didn't send even a famous post, those people didn't dare to approach you at will. ”
In Kate's kingdom, the lower nobles did not dare to send their names to the homes of the high nobles if they did not have a qualified middleman, otherwise it would mean that you felt that you could be on an equal footing with the high nobles. Now in Black Rock City, the only families that can sit on an equal footing with Chen Xiansong are the City Lord's Mansion and Udil's relatives.
Chen Xiansong asked with interest, "And then?" ”
"And then?" Zelonger said helplessly: "Then I was entangled by many people. After all, our City Lord's Mansion has been in this city for quite some time. Although there is no one in the city who can compare with us in terms of status, but we can run a family, and we always need to make friends, and those nobles who have a good relationship with our city lord's mansion want me to be an introduction and introduce them to you. ”
Chen Xiansong suddenly spoke at this time, he used to remember that social activities among nobles should be very frequent, but recently, no one came to invite him to the banquet, except for Ze Longer, no one came to visit him, at first he thought that he was too young and was rejected by other nobles, but he didn't expect that this was the case.
"That's fine." Chen Xiansong simply agreed. The prosperity of Black Rock City is the last wish left to him by Udil, and the nobles are the greatest force in the city, and their help is indispensable for the development of Black Rock Village. (To be continued......)
