Chapter 137: The Parable I
At this point, the matter is done, and everyone serves wine, and it is all wine, and it is also red wine.
It is said that Saeddat, the god of law and contracts, used holy blood when signing contracts, so in this world, it is a habit to form a habit and after the contract is reached, red wine will be given to symbolize holy blood.
Romon stood there and watched the two barons talking in a low voice with wine in their hands, and he looked a little distracted, and from a moment after the ecstasy, Romon felt as if something was not quite right!
"Romong, congratulations. A sweet voice sounded beside him.
Romon turned his head and saw Miss Elenie looking at him with a smile on her face with half a glass of wine in her hand.
He smiled and said, "Thank you." β
"Why, you don't seem to be happy with two more territories?" Miss Eleni asked, seeing some of Romon's apprehension.
Luo Meng turned his head again and glanced at this woman with a smart heart, and did not intend to hide it: "Yes, today's situation makes me a little panicked. β
Eleanne smiled, Romon was very happy with her attitude, she gently picked up the wine in her hand, and took a small sip very elegantly, a few drops of the red liquid hung on her red lips, looking bright.
"Don't worry, since things have come to this point, it's useless to worry about it, besides, it's a great thing that makes everyone jealous to the point of madness, don't you see the way they look at you, like they're looking at a delicious wine?" said Miss Elenie, figuratively.
Luo Meng smiled bitterly, it is true, although the position he is standing in at this moment is a relatively remote corner, but the eyes from all directions still overwhelm him at any time, it seems that he is indeed jealous to the point of madness now!
"Well, cheers to me as a sacred wine. Shaking off the strange emotions in his heart, Romon also poured a glass of wine from the table next to him, and then touched Elenie's glass lightly.
"Cheers. Seeing Romon bowing his head and drinking, a hint of appreciation flashed in Eleni's eyes.
This once ordinary teenager has now grown into an outstanding person, and with his talent and hard work, the future will belong to him, and the future must be extremely bright.
"But...... What the hell does Father mean?" she turned her gaze to the other corner, where her father, Baron Roccas, was talking to the Baron Galle. Judging from Roccas's expression at this time, there was no trace of the expression that he should have just lost ten square kilometers of land, but her understanding of her father, under the premise of no benefit, it was impossible for him to give away the land for nothing, even if it never really belonged to him.
"In the end...... What are my father and Baron Galle thinking?" "Even Eleni has a feeling of helplessness, the difference in rank is one level, and the information and power obtained are completely different, and it is not easy to know that there is something strange, but not to know.
"Elenie......" Romon's voice recalled her thoughts, she quickly turned her head, just met Romon Dark Eyes, and suddenly a strange shock spread from her chest to her body.
"Romong, I'm sorry, I was distracted. She said with some cover-up.
Romon smiled slightly, then suddenly made a gentleman's salute and handed a slender hand to her: "It's okay, although it's in the temple, you can still dance after the banquet, do I have the honor to ask the most beautiful and best priest in Rika Town to dance?"
Eleanne was stunned, and sure enough, the music played, and she remembered that someone had indeed announced the start of the ball just now, and looking at Romon with her dark and bright eyes, her heart beat again.
Putting his little hand into Romong's hand, he replied with a little blush: "Of course you can." β
So, the two of them danced to the melodious music, and at the same time, along with the music, there were many other officials and nobles. Even Baron Galle entered the dance floor at the invitation of a noble maiden, while Baron Rocas left early under the pretext of having an affair.
"Romon, if it is my father who has caused you this fear, I apologize to you on his behalf. In the middle of the dance, Eleni, who had been silent, suddenly spoke.
Romon's heart warmed, of course he knew what kind of transparent heart the girl in front of him had, what she said was indeed sincere, nodded, he smiled and said: "You are so beautiful, like the Holy Spirit of the kingdom of God has come to the world! I will remember your words." β
As soon as the words came out, Romon felt a little regretful, and sure enough, he saw Miss Elenie's face lowered and dyed with a thin flush, and he coughed a little embarrassedly, and the two fell into silence again.
After a moment's pause, Miss Eleni said, "Do you know the sixty-first article of Edmi's edict?"
"Edmi Edict? I know that Edmi City is the capital of our Eske Kingdom, so Edmi Edict doesn't know. "Romon has been making up for most of the knowledge of the druids lately, and he really doesn't know about this.
"Yes, the city of Edmi is the capital of our Kingdom of Eske, and when the royal family was founded, it had a treaty with the nobility, so it formed a hundred and thirteen edicts, which is the legal basis of our country. Miss Eleni said with some reverence: "Four hundred years ago, after repelling the attack of the demons, under the order of God, many heroes were able to build the country and pass it on, including our first king Mekta, this edict was established by him and the nobles, and there were only seventy-nine articles at the beginning, which have been added to the current level. β
"Oh, the Constitution!" Romon understood, of course he wouldn't say it, he also knew a little about Mekta, this hero was good at naval warfare, and he had established a lot of feats, and now on the square of the capital Edmi City, there is also a monument to the hero, the first of course is the founder of the kingdom, the famous hero Mekta, and it is said that it has gained immortality, and it is still the protective demigod of Edmi City!
However, Romon is not paying attention to this now, he is more concerned with the so-called Sixty-One Edict.
Miss Eleni looked at his expectant gaze, and then stopped selling, and said, "The sixty-first edict stipulates that anyone who freely holds thirty square kilometers, or earns more than 20,000 gold coins a year, should and must be awarded a lord, and you have fulfilled the first rule, and you are a hereditary lord, oh, a hereditary knight!"
Lords, as the name suggests, are those who have made outstanding contributions.
"But is it a meritorious service to have wealth?" Romon asked, puzzled.
"Of course, with wealth comes merit, isn't it? or if a warrior reaches level 5 or a priesthood reaches level 11, any kingdom where you are located will give you the title of lord, just because people who have advanced in their profession cannot be hereditary. Miss Eleni looked at him with some inexplicability, and then remembered that he was a countryman who did not understand many aspects, so she laughed and explained: "The great god of law and order, Saeddat, has an immortal metaphor, that is, it is not only permissible but necessary for those with power to participate in order. β
Seeing that Romon was carefully considering this sentence, Miss Eleni said as a matter of course: "This power certainly includes many aspects, history has proved that for 20,000 years, all trade unions and countries that have implemented this myth have been stable and develop together, and those who do not implement this will fall apart, this is the foundation of order, and the important surname is even above violence." β
Luo Meng thought about it carefully, and the more he thought about it, the more wonderful it became, and he couldn't help but ooze a few cold sweats.
Those who have power will seek a position corresponding to their strength, and the methods adopted by those in high positions are very simple, one is to erase, and the other is to absorb.
Needless to say, all countries that adopt this kind of means have no recession, and Song Ming is a typical example.
If you learn from it, there are many positive examples.
On the earth, all nations that can prosper forever have a Tao, and one of them must be this.
English law had stipulated that anyone who earned Β£20 a year from a freeholding land should and must be conferred a knighthood, which would later be converted into a parliamentarian, but the essence was the same.
As a result, it became the first constitutional monarchy and led the national movement for 300 years.
With this sentence alone, this god of law and order has immortality.
Because no one can overturn this statement.
Unless it is self-decaying, or forcing the powerful to resort to extra-order means.
Luo Meng thought about it, his fifth-level core should also be built on this immortal foundation, and after thinking about it, Luo Meng realized that he was holding her waist, deeper, and when he touched her lower abdomen, he still felt as delicate as jade.
As soon as I felt it, the skin of the two of them was like an electric shock, a ** electric wave, rippling back and forth, Luo Meng did not withdraw her hand, and she did not make any moves, just did not know, but the flush on her face became deeper and deeper.
The good times didn't last long, and in a few moments, the banquet was over, after all, it was a temple, not a private banquet for the nobles, and when Romon left, Elenie's face was still tinged with a faint flush, a color that made her look more and more attractive. Romon only glanced at it, and then tried to regain his mind.
"Thank you again for your help, Mr. Romon, and I hope you can manage that territory properly. As he left the temple, Romon met Baron Galle, who was about to get in the car and leave, and the two of them said a little politely, and Baron Galle left this sentence and left.
Only Romon, whose mind was full of confusion and puzzled, scratched his scalp and went towards the territory.
Romon quickly rushed back to his territory. By this time, news of his acquisition of new land had spread throughout the town of Rika, but the people in the fringe forests were unaware of it.
When the internal affairs officer Nick knew that the territory he managed would be more than a few tens of miles, he was very excited: "Romong, great, there are about fifteen square kilometers of forest here, and there is a small plain between the hills over there, adding up, at least thirty square kilometers." β
He jumped and said, "There are sixty-five households in our village, and even if there are only thirty-five households over there, there are still 100 households!"
When Romon said Miss Elenie's words, not only Nick was stunned, but even Fafer's eyes lit up.
Romon became a hereditary lord, he can raise knights, and he became a fifth-level, so it is natural that he will be knighted, although the territory is still small, but there will always be in the future!
Suddenly, Fafer's heart settled down, and his vision of Romon changed again.
Romon was still puzzled by the matter, and he gave Nick the paperwork and the title deed map, and after making an appointment to inspect the territory in a few days, he came to his room alone and lay down on the bed.
"Two barons give me land at the same time, will there be any problems in this?" Romon was full of confusion in his heart, and secretly thought: "If Baron Galle only did this, it would be okay, after all, I did help him, and he gave me a piece of land, although the weight is a bit heavy, but it is not impossible, at least reasonably...... But why did Baron Rocas get a kick? strange, really strange. β
For Baron Roccas's character, Romon who has dealt with him is very familiar, such a person like Grandet would take the initiative to pluck his hair to others?
Even if he is his illegitimate son, in this world, it is unlikely that he will divide the territory to him!
Unless he was going to recruit himself as his son-in-law, although he knew that this was impossible, but when he thought of this, Romon seemed to feel that his hand was still around Miss Eleni's thin waist, rubbing against her skin, that ambiguous feeling...... In particular, Miss Eleni would rather know that his hand was already stretched deeper, but she pretended not to know, which was particularly tempting.
"Mr. RomΓ³n, may I come in. Miss Avisie's voice suddenly sounded outside the door, interrupting Romon's dreams.
Romon hurriedly tidied himself up, sat up on the bed, and said, "Please come in." β
With a faint smile on her face, Miss Avisy walked in from the outside: "Congratulations, Romong, I have heard about you, such a large piece of land is really a good thing for you. β
"But, things were so good that I always felt that something wasn't quite right. Talking to this woman, Romon was still very frank.
Miss Avisy nodded: "I was about to talk about this, Romon I'm about to leave, and I want to go with you to survey these two pieces of land before I leave." β
"Thank you so much. Romon heard that the other party was leaving, although he had known it for a long time, he was still a little sad. "Are you really leaving? No longer lingering?"
"Hehe, where there is reunion, there is separation. Miss Avisy smiled faintly, "We are not gods!"
The two were silent for a while, and Miss Avisy smiled and said, "Okay, so decide, I'll stay here for a few days, don't be so sad, I'll wait for you in the dining room tomorrow morning." β
Looking at the back of her leaving, Luo Meng sighed softly, and a little melancholy came to his heart.
