"There is nothing impossible, as long as they think it is not in their family's interests, nothing is impossible. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info "A trace of bitterness appeared on the face of the blond young man, and the other party naturally found it difficult to understand the embarrassment, but even if these words were said to him, what was the use."
"Then how could their family agree to let that Miss Dreiser get engaged to you in the first place?" Wu Feng frowned and asked calmly, there must be some reason for this, otherwise the other party would not easily break the marriage.
"Maybe it's because my brother was an officer in the Union army at the time, but my brother gave his life for the country when he resisted the Chidi invasion last October. The blonde young man's mood became sad and painful at this time, and his tone was also low.
I see, Wu Feng sighed in his heart, the world is so realistic, a dead alliance officer is no longer of any use to a family, it is not based on its own strength, such a marriage contract is of course extremely fragile. Patting the blonde young man on the shoulder in understanding, Wu Feng muttered, "What does Miss Dreiser mean by herself?"
"It's not much yet, but I'm worried that she won't be able to withstand the pressure from within the family. There was a hint of soreness on Plovlan's handsome cheeks, and in this day and age, it was difficult for a girl to resist the pressure from her own family, and he was not sure in the slightest.
Seeing that his classmate's thinking was still so simple, Wu Feng shook his head, his classmate couldn't help but underestimate his fiancée, he didn't know how the two came together, but judging from his fiancée's performance today, it seemed that it was far from being as simple as he said.
"Ploveland, what have you been doing all these years, why did you suddenly come to Tang River?" Wu Feng deliberately diverted from these unpleasant topics, and there was nothing he could do about them at this moment.
"Alas, it's hard to put into words. After graduating from college, my father died, and the family gradually declined, but fortunately, my brother joined the army and joined the allied army, and he did a good job in the army, and I also wanted to find something to do in the principality, but unfortunately I couldn't find a suitable job in the principality, and all departments were filled with the children of those famous families in the principality, and I was not satisfied with a few jobs, but I couldn't stay at home all the time. Fortunately, after getting engaged, Dreiser's family helped me find a secretary job under the Foreign Affairs Office of the Alliance, and I barely did it, no, Viscount Moncardi was appointed as the commercial counselor of the League in the Duchy of Merry, and Dreiser wanted to follow her uncle to the East to have a look, so I went to the Duchy of Merry first, and then came here to have a look, I had nothing to do, so I accompanied Dreiser. The blonde youth perked up a little and explained.
"Commercial Counselor, I'm afraid it's the official in charge of collecting intelligence, right?" Wu Feng smiled slightly, and said casually, "It seems that the Hansen Alliance does not directly border the Duchy of Merry, and there are two major inland seas in the middle, the Aegean Sea and the Baltic Sea, can the spices of the Duchy of Merry be transported directly to the Hansen Alliance across the Marmara Island Chain and the blockade of Constantinople?"
There is a huge saltwater lake in the shape of a bow tie between the middle continent and the western continent, the south half is called the Aegean Sea, the north half is called the Baltic Sea, this saltwater lake can be called the largest lake in the continent, the area is even several times larger than the area of all the other lakes in the whole continent combined, according to the analysis of geologists, it should be that in ancient times, this land subsidence caused the seawater around the continent to pour into form such a huge inland lake, and some islands of different sizes in the middle constitute the Marmara island chain, and it has also become the most important throat of the entire inland sea area。 Constantinople is the largest city on the island of Crete, the largest island in the Marmara island chain, and the most important city in the entire inland sea area, the Constantines are the most powerful masters in this sea area, almost controlling the sea power of the entire inland sea area, all fleets that want to pass through this water area must be safer with their consent, Wu Feng also traveled on the Baltic Sea when he was studying in the Western Continent, and the beautiful scenery of the Baltic Sea made him unforgettable.
He opened his mouth a little embarrassed, and wanted to explain, but when he thought that the classmate in front of him was no longer a young man who was studying in the past, but a lord who held the hegemony of one side, he would definitely not be able to hide these inside information, so he silently lowered his head and didn't say anything.
"Are the Constantine pirates still so rampant now?" Wu Feng also secretly felt speechless, his classmate was already a little uninterested, he didn't want to stimulate the other party anymore, so he changed the topic.
"Well, it's getting more and more rampant, their sailors never care about those pirates, unless they pay a high transit fee, many of them will be sacked by pirates, and now they are getting more and more crazy, before we came here, on the coast of the Spartan Kingdom, those pirates even went ashore and ransacked several towns, and even the regular army of the kingdom was defeated by them. Speaking of this, the blond-haired young man couldn't help but shake his head and sighed, "Those pirates are clearly backed by the Constantines. ”
"Hmph, that's natural, the city-states along the Inland Sea are scattered and go their own way, that's not cheap Constantines and pirates, can't those nobles in your alliance see such a simple thing clearly?" ”
"But who wants to pay the high freight and transit taxes? who doesn't want to avoid the high transit fees and avoid the pirates?" the blond young man was obviously a little emotional, although he had not spent much time in the Foreign Affairs Office of the League, he already knew a lot about these international affairs, "Merchants are looking for the highest profits, and risk and profit coexist, so this kind of capture by pirates will never end." ”
"Well, then why did you suddenly remember to go to the east?" Wu Feng was interested in the purpose of their group's visit to their own territory.
"This, I don't know very well, probably what Mr. Simun Cardi meant, he seems to have always been interested in your Tang River, and only stayed in the Duchy of Merry for a few days, and then hurriedly embarked on a journey here, but he also said that he only went to the northwest to have a look, and did not mean to go to the interior of your Tang River. The blonde young man hesitated and said hesitantly.
"Hehe, Plovran, don't worry, I won't be unfavorable to Viscount Monkadi, even if he does come to me to collect information, I will do my best to give him a satisfactory harvest. Wu Feng laughed and patted his classmate's shoulder, "But I think our northwest doesn't seem to have any stake in your Hansen Alliance, presumably Mr. Moncardi probably admires the magnificent scenery of our northwest, and wants to come and take a look, old classmate, don't you say?"
Wu Feng's half-ridiculous joke made the blonde young man relax again, he was really afraid that Wu Feng would arrest his fiancée's uncle in the name of a spy, he heard that the criminal law in the Eastern Continent was much stricter than that in the Western Continent, and if he didn't pay attention to it, he would be in danger of his life.
Although it is the height of summer, the garden boulevard is refreshing, and the cool breeze makes people returning from the hot world feel like they have completely released every pore at once, and it is not cool and comfortable. While strolling, while recalling all kinds of anecdotes from the past, Wu Feng felt that this afternoon was the most relaxed and free he had lived in the past few years, and this feeling of indulging in the memories of the past was not something that could be tasted casually at any time, so Wu Feng cherished it very much, and even specifically ordered the guards not to disturb him, and everything would be said after the afternoon.
When it was already dinner, Wu Feng and the blonde young man, who were still talking about it, walked back to the middle courtyard, only to find that Mr. Viscount Monkadi was already waiting at the door of the reception room, with a respectful look, which was completely different from the arrogant situation in the morning.
The menu is still Western-style to the tastes of the guests, with sherry, kirroyal and vermouth as well as minoza for ladies. Wu Feng took a sip of absinthe with great satisfaction, Charlotte's craftsmanship became more and more outstanding, this kind of aperitif prepared with a mixture of cardamom vanilla and coriander wine may not be able to reach this level even if it is from the Western Continent, the light and thick are just right, which makes Wu Feng's appetite great, and several guests are also very surprised, they did not expect to be able to taste such a pure Western meal in the Eastern Continent, which is thousands of miles away.
The dinner was held in a somewhat oppressive atmosphere, but this was for the Viscount Monkadi, who came later, although the Western-style meal was very exquisite, from the famous "Beauty Tears" to Germany From red wine to pure asparagus cream soup, from the selected veal steak from the Tengger grassland to the after-dinner ginbase and angelkiss (angelkiss) are all original and high-quality, but it is a pity that Viscount Monkadi does not have much mind to taste these delicacies at this time, the host sitting opposite has shaken the wine glass from the beginning, and the slightly playful gaze has been shaking on himself, which makes Viscount Monkadi extremely nervous, he never thought that the guy he met in the morning was actually Li Wufeng, who is known as the king of the northwest among the people of Tanghe。
It's all to blame for the idiot Plovlan, who actually told himself what his name was Kafenitz, let himself look away, and regarded a sleeping dragon as a small snake, which is good, offended the other party, and made him not know how to turn it around for a while, but the bell still needs to be tied to the bell, it seems that if you want to befriend this Li Wufeng, you still have to go through the guy Provlan. The purpose of coming to the northwest is to find a way to find a breakthrough and open up the predicament of the alliance.
