Chapter 58: Return to the Imperial Capital
Three minutes later. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
After finishing the conversation with William, Julius got up and left the box.
Just as she had come, she tugged at the brim of her hat, obscuring most of her face.
In the lobby of the restaurant, many diners looked at Ulis as they walked out of William's box, and their faces were either pretending to be serious or unabashedly greedy.
When have they ever seen such a wonderful woman as these men who sell coolies on the docks every day?
Yulis walked calmly, unconcerned about the greedy gazes that kept looking around, leaving only a tall and slender back.
Many people are secretly swallowing saliva.
In their hearts, their humble self-esteem is at work, so that they dare not come forward to talk. Even some ruffians who were dressed in a sloppy manner did not dare to blow the prodigal whistle that used to flirt with the women of good families to attract Yuris's attention.
If you meet a beautiful woman on the street, these ruffians will come up to talk to you.
If they meet a woman like Yuris, who has a perfect figure, a superb posture, a glorious temperament, luxurious clothes, and a snow-white fur coat on her body, which is worth tens of thousands of gold coins, they will only be ashamed of themselves.
At this time, Yulis walked to the door of the restaurant.
Kane and the others are standing here.
Crean lay expressionlessly on the wooden railing outside the restaurant, looking out at the dock, regardless of the scorching sun, but also sweating hard to work, the workers carrying the goods, a thoughtful look.
The younger Kova was the first to turn. He looked at Euris and reached out to scratch his head, a Burmese smirk on his face.
Yuris glanced at Kova who was looking at her, chuckled, and said, "Little one, you can go in and eat your hairy crab now." ”
Kova nodded stunned.
Julis is gone.
Kova still looks like she's lost in her soul. Master Rhine knocked him on the head and kindly said, "Silly boy, don't worry about people. She is not a member of the same world as us. ”
Kova sighed with some sadness in her heart.
Afterwards, Kane, Crean, Master Rhein, and Kova returned to William's box.
In the box, William was sitting precariously, glanced at Kane, who was dressed as a wandering samurai, and said in a loud voice, "I have already negotiated with that woman." Kane, you wait a minute, get back on the Liberty, stay on board for a few days, and count the iron ore on board. ”
Kane has no objections.
"Iron ore is contraband and cannot be transported into the imperial capital. ”
After a pause, William continued: "Crean, you and Master Rhine will look around the outskirts of the imperial capital, and after buying a suitable manor, you will go to join Kane on the Liberty, and hire someone to transport the iron ore to the manor and take strict care. ”
"Young Master William, leave this matter to me with confidence, I will definitely handle it. Crean reassured.
William nodded, "When the time comes, I'll go to the manor to find you." ”
"What about me, what do I do?" asked Kova with a little excitement.
William thought about it carefully, and a wicked smile appeared on his lips: "There is really a very important task to be entrusted to you. ”
Kova looked expectant.
William said: "In this way, you and I will go to the Imperial Capital first, have fun for a week, and then change your name, impersonate me, use my name William Rest, and go to the Imperial Capital Magic Academy." ”
"Go... Go to a magic academy? But I can do magic! I'm lucky enough to be able to unleash fireballs now. ”
Kova was full of surprise, "Also, Master William, why should I use your name?"
"That's what my father expects of me. ”
William smiled: "At the same time, it is also my expectation of you. Do you understand? This time next year, you must pass the assessment of the Academy of Magic and get me the Magician Badge. ”
When Kova heard this, she immediately wrinkled into a bitter gourd face, and everyone laughed endlessly.
Master Rhine touched his head and said kindly, "Treasure this opportunity." Studying at the Imperial Capital Magic Academy, over the course of a year, you have to pay tens of thousands of gold coins, but you can't waste Young Master William's cultivation. ”
"That's... All right. I will definitely do a good job in the task of Young Master William and strive to get the first place. ”
Kova said embarrassedly, and reluctantly agreed.
"Well, there is still so much seafood on the table, it's shameful to waste it, wipe them all out. William announced with a smile.
The crowd began to continue eating.
Sumera peeled a large lobster, put it on William's plate, leaned close to William's ear and whispered, "I think the way you gave orders just now is particularly charming." ”
"When I have the chance, I'll show you my most charming appearance. William smirked.
When Sumera heard this, she immediately gave William a blank look.
A meal, eaten quickly.
After settling the bill, the crowd dispersed.
Kane is going to the Liberty and counting the iron ore. Braving the scorching sun, Crean hired a shipping firm at the docks that specialized in transportation, and arranged for some manpower and convoys to transport beer kegs.
After doing this, Crean waved goodbye to William.
Half an hour later, the convoy left the dock and embarked on the road to the imperial capital.
William sat on a steed, and the head of the convoy was beside him. He was a slender, slender, businessman with a smile on his face and a talkative man.
William chatted with him, asking about the imperial capital.
The thin merchant said it all, "Speaking of which, it's still the same as it has been recently. The only major thing worth mentioning is His Majesty Charles IX. ”
William asked with interest, "What's wrong with Your Majesty?"
"In one month, it will be the eightieth birthday of His Majesty Charles IX. ”
The thin merchant smiled: "When the time comes, the imperial capital will definitely be very lively." And I heard that several princes will also return to the imperial capital to celebrate His Majesty's birthday. ”
"Those are too far away from us. William laughed.
"How so?"
The thin merchant obviously disagreed with William's opinion, and he continued: "Your Majesty is almost eighty years old, and he has not yet chosen the crown prince, and has been hesitant. Actually, to put it bluntly, I think Your Majesty is simply confused. ”
The thin merchant sighed: "No matter which prince it is, you have to choose one." If His Majesty dies suddenly, several princes and those big names will definitely earn a lot of blood for the throne. ”
"At that time, if the border orc clan makes waves again, the Holy Spirit Empire will fall into internal and external troubles. How can we small businessmen live?"
When William heard this, he laughed dumbly.
It is impossible to see that this businessman cares so much about the country and cares about the safety of the country.
Because of the sensitive identity of the person he was talking about, it was His Majesty Charles IX of the Holy Spirit Empire, and the thin merchant had a few casual conversations, so he didn't say more, and instead chatted with William about some customs and people about the imperial capital, and some interesting anecdotes that some merchants themselves had seen in business for many years.
William listened quietly, and when he heard something interesting, he couldn't help but laugh out loud.
In this way, the convoy carried large wooden barrels full of beer, and finally arrived at the most prestigious super-large city in Canaan Province at dusk, the imperial capital!
The imperial capital, where William grew up.
When he was a child, the Lester family's ale business turned from prosperous to declining, and it was always in a state of loss. After William's mother died, the burden of the entire family fell entirely on Baron Bazado.
At that time, Baron Bazado kept drinking all day long, helpless, and almost hopeless.
When the Lester family went bankrupt and had to sell the mansion in the imperial capital, Bazado woke up.
After he returned to his fiefdom Sunset Town, he almost quit drinking and devoted all his energy to the government affairs of Sunset Town, trying to be a shrewd and capable little lord and leave the last family business for William.
Time flies, and years pass.
Now, when William returns to the imperial capital, he inevitably thinks of the memories of the past, and he feels a little emotional.
