Chapter 42: The Den of Thieves
"It's good you're back, or you'd have died. Rosie already understands that Hano can't be blamed entirely for this incident, so he doesn't plan to punish him for his inexperience, the key is that he returns to Greenland with the rest of the money immediately after the incident, rather than sending the money out and back to avoid more responsibility.
This money must be sent, but it must be sent by three people together.
Francisco personally went to Greentown to canonize him, which was a great favor. Because the location of the canonization is often in the imperial capital, the big nobles are reluctant to go to the countryside, and they have to go back after a long journey, which is something that no one wants to do for the nobles who are dedicated to pleasure. The second is a matter of time, he has the status of a lord, even if this is the lowest level of existence in the aristocratic class, but it is still very different from the commoners.
He was able to kill Santos without any scruples, and in addition to Andiel's gestures, his identity also played a big role.
Andil also took a lot of care of him, allowing Rossi to kill people on his territory, which was a big face. The nobles pay the most attention to face, Andil can do this to him, it is undeniable that there is Prince Fabio's instruction, but Andil himself has to agree, not to mention that Santos is a dog raised by the Marquis's Palace, killing him is equivalent to undermining Andiel's authority, he uses this method to promote Rosie, how can Rosie not know how to do it?
As for Prince Fabio, it is more important, the leader of an aristocratic faction, so to speak, the head of a large family, playing the role of a "father". As a newcomer who has just joined this family and has begun to enjoy power within a few days, no matter what point you say, you have to be interesting.
The gifts of these three must be given, no matter how much. But you can't send two people and miss one person, that will make enemies, and it will also leave people with a "Rosie is too ignorant" effect.
Hano's ability to come back directly saved Rossi a lot of heart.
He glanced at Hano, "Go back to the church, I'll personally solve this matter in a few days, you idiot, you can't handle such a trivial matter!"
Hano crawled to his feet and stood behind Rossi, hunched over, not daring to straighten up.
After saying goodbye to the two noble young masters, Rosie returned to the church, and after explaining what happened to Hano, he took Hano to McXiangcheng. Another Templar rushed to the Church headquarters with a letter and gathered his men to travel east.
McXiangcheng is the main city of Greenland, and since the famous rebellion of the Principality of Hamas, the Empire has ceased to be a principality. His Majesty the Emperor even divided the fiefs of the dukes into fiefs again, in order to restrain the emergence of a high degree of uniformity of military and political power in a certain region. This practice is very ugly, very shameless, it is clear that what is good for you is changed hands and given to others, but after the taxes are collected layer by layer, the dukes can also share half with the royal family, and many dukes will pinch their noses and admit it.
In fact, those who really want to rebel don't care if there are other nobles' fiefs in their territory, just kill those who don't obey, and it doesn't matter if they don't want to rebel, as long as they have a lot of money.
In addition to a few stewards and family children who handle daily affairs in Greenland, the Grand Duke of Greenland himself has been staying in the imperial capital and enjoying the world of flowers.
As the main city of Greenland Province, it must be the most prosperous place in the whole of Greenland, and the train line only goes here.
The train was not invented by the Empire, but was built by the Empire and the capitalists of the Federation after the invention of the Federation, in order to ensure that the materials and troops in wartime could reach all parts of the Empire as quickly as possible. Usually used to pull people and goods, the speed of 60 kilometers per hour is already high in this world, but for Rossi, the person who crossed over, it seems a little slow.
There was something on their minds, so Rossi and Hano didn't stop at McXiangcheng, and naturally they couldn't enjoy the prosperity here, they boarded the nearest train and went directly to the Northwest Station of the Empire, a transfer station.
Each train has a special carriage for the nobility, and the facilities are luxurious, so you can enjoy it to the fullest. In order to avoid boredom, Rossi chose to sleep.
By the time he woke up, the train had already stopped at the station.
Looking out of the window through the window, the Northwest Station of the Imperial Capital is indeed very prosperous, three points more prosperous than the Maixiang City at a glance. Three- and four-story buildings were everywhere, the railroad was lined with businessmen, and Rossi saw a lot of foreigners.
The Tuhrman Empire was not a multi-ethnic state, mainly composed of Tuhrmans, whose former rulers were defeated to the ground and assimilated and multiplied, and their original racial characteristics could no longer be distinguished. The purest bloodlines in the entire Turman Empire were the authentic Tuhrmans, most of whom had golden hair. Then there are the Turmans of mixed blood, like Rosie, with blond-brown hair.
The red-haired people are basically Federans, and the Federalists are mainly Porters, who are shorter than the Tuhrmans, and they are also the most common alien race in Tuhlman. Like Tuhlman, the Commonwealth is dominated by the Porters, with more than ninety-five percent of the population being Porters.
The republic has a large number of ethnic groups, including the Tulmans, the Porters, the Nalebo, the Zakun and some chaotic minorities. It is difficult to distinguish the Republicans from their appearance, but they have one thing in common, that is, they are relatively tall and tall, and their body hair is thicker.
The train came to a slow stop, and the noble car was the first to open, and two railroad soldiers escorted Rossi and Hano out first, before the entrance and exit of the ordinary car were opened.
As soon as you get off the train, you can feel that the temperature here is slightly warmer than in Greenland, the air is more humid, and you don't feel like you have a knife scratching your throat like in Greenland.
"Take me to your place to eat. Rosie kicked Hano's ass, and Hano was resigned, bending over and walking in front, dejected.
He was very depressed now, and he finally gained Rosie's trust, but he didn't expect that the first errand would be broken, and he didn't know if he would be reused in the future.
After about three to five minutes of walking, after exiting the train port, there is a small restaurant on the corner of the road. It is said to be large because this small restaurant also has an accommodation business, covering an area of more than 300 square meters, with a total of four floors. The first floor is naturally a small restaurant that runs a restaurant, and the upstairs is full of guest rooms that can accommodate a lot of people.
The two of them stood outside the small restaurant for about half an hour, and Rossi found a very special place, there were some people who would come and go in the small restaurant many times in a short period of time, they were very fast, and their expressions were occasionally surprised or smiling. He glanced back at Hano, this idiot really had no vigilance at all, this was obviously a den of thieves, and he couldn't see it.
In a blink of an eye, he kicked Hano again, "Go and inquire where the security station is." ”
Rosie only has two people now, no matter how he deals with this matter, there will definitely be insufficient manpower, and he must wait for the big army to come. He doesn't have that kind of penchant for white arowana suits to die.
It is not difficult to inquire about the security office, this spontaneously formed small town can collect a lot of taxes every year, and these taxes do not need to go through layers of aristocratic goose plucking means, it is a famous money bag of the royal family. There are five other towns that have formed spontaneously in this way, all of which are at the outermost periphery of the imperial capital circle. In order to maintain this hard-won situation, not only the Imperial Tax Collector and the Sheriff were stationed here, but also a brigade of the Imperial Army.
After finding the sheriff, Rosie explained that she wanted to stay here for a few days, but she didn't know where it was safe. The enthusiastic sheriff recommended a modest hotel to the young nobleman, and affectionately introduced him to some interesting places in the Northwest Station.
As part of the imperial capital city circle, it also brings together everything that can be seen in the north, south, east and west, and prostitutes of all races can be seen everywhere, and some good families will make a cameo appearance in this ancient and special profession to earn a relatively generous extra income for their small family.
But Rosie didn't like this, he rushed into the hotel and didn't come out, which made the sheriff complain for a while, it was so difficult to sell a few favors these days.
After three days of waiting in the hotel, the church people finally arrived.
