Twilight.

Parish of Tharris, Herring Harbor.

"Mr. Gu, I've been waiting for a long time."

Porta trotted all the way over, and he made an appointment with Han Dongwen to meet outside the port after completing today's loading and unloading work, but he had to deal with some things temporarily, and he had to rush to the appointment after finishing it.

Botta was very reluctant to let the other party wait for so long, so even though he was already very tired, he still ran out with two tired legs as fast as he could.

Han Dongwen smiled: "It's okay, I'm also busy with a lot of things when I'm waiting for you." ”

This is true, what is the matter with the first machine during the day? It's not that I'm hanging up and putting it there, and I'm going to have a small meeting with Grand Duke Tilda and Prince Gao.

Porta scratched his head a little embarrassedly, only to be polite: "Anyway, I'm sorry for you." Is it right to go buy medicine today? Let's go now. ”

He turned the hem of the shirt that he tucked into his pants when he was working and patted it flat, put down his sleeves again, hastily scratched his hair, looked a little less tired, looked up and said, "Looking for your statement, I think the necessary medicinal materials are from Simeng?" ”

Han Dongwen nodded, the two prescriptions given by Chi Hanqing were indeed Simeng medicinal materials.

"Then let's go to Simon Street."

Porta patted his chest: "It was originally Tharis 14th Street, because of the closest relationship to the commercial office, the Simeng people in West Asia set up stalls and bags there, and there are more and more people, and everyone is called Simeng Street." ”

"That should have what we want."

Han Dongwen nodded, and Porta was about to walk over with him, but Han Dongwen raised his hand to stop a carriage.

"Time is more important."

With that, he pulled Porta into the carriage and said to the coachman, "Simon Street." ”

"Simeng Street, boss."

The coachman repeated his destination, and the rope in his hand struck the old horse's buttocks, and the carriage went on with a hum.

"You...... You've broken the bank, sir. ”

Porta carefully looked at the not-so-luxurious décor in the carriage, he hadn't ridden a cab for hire for a long time.

"If I had come out of the port earlier today, you wouldn't have had to spend that money......

Han Dongwen waved his hand, signaling that he didn't have to care.

Even if a carriage encircled the entire diocese of Tharis, it was only worth two or three silver coins - the silver coins of West Asia were almost identical to those of Simeng, except that one side of the Simeng coins was cast with a dragon pattern, while the coins of West Asia were cast with the emblem of the cross and shield sword.

The reason for this almost one-to-one exchange and almost uniform style is naturally because the original currencies of these two countries have been discontinued, in other words, the coins they are currently using have been reissued in line with the taka.

His net worth is barely about 30 gold dollars left, and although the reward for catching the traitors in West Asia is 50 gold dollars, there are still many tax accounts to be paid, and the wages of the workers who rebuilt the Yihong Mansion must be paid in advance before Li Zai's fine is paid.

"Even if it's the descent of Ashoka, it can't prevent this kind of disguised colonization......"

"What do you say, sir?"

Porta heard Han Dongwen's sigh to himself, Han Dongwen only smiled: "It's nothing, how long will it take for us to arrive?" ”

"The carriage should be ...... soon"

Hearing his words, Porta immediately leaned forward to the left and looked out through the glass of the carriage: "This is ...... How did you get to Minay? ”

He sat up straight suddenly: "Sir, you have been pitted, look at me." ”

Before Han Dongwen could react, Porta had already slammed open the carriage door, grabbed the handle outside with one hand, and almost half of his body poked out of the carriage that was moving, shouting at the coachman: "Hey! Old stuff! Why not walk from Spring Street and turn to the Cathedral? Do you dare to take a detour? ”

Although his boyish timbre didn't sound so threatening, it was clear that Porta had seen through the coachman's trick of detouring. "You...... Sit back for me! ”

The coachman's face turned red, and his mouth was spitting: "The Grand Duke visited the cathedral today and participated in the prayers, and the spring street to the cathedral has long been blocked, I am doing this for your good!" ”

"Then you shouldn't make such a big bend around Minay, you can't just walk from Hollife!" Not to be outdone, Porta was not to be outdone.

The coachman snorted, and should have given up his defense, scolding: "Which way to go around, do you know that there is no one?" I'm going to go far away and not delay you, and I don't want to sit down, so I'll settle the money first, it's really ......"

Before he finished speaking, Han Dongwen coughed lightly, reached out and pulled Pota back to the carriage and pressed him on the chair, and said in a deep voice: "Stop." ”

"!"

The detour was recognized, and the coachman only felt unlucky, and stopped the old horse without any anger: "Give money!" I don't pull anymore! ”

Han Dongwen rummaged through the money bag in his pocket, took out five silver coins and put them in the palm of his hand and showed them to the other party, and the coachman's eyes suddenly straightened.

This, that's twice as much as he can earn this trip!

The driver's expression immediately became flattering, rubbing his hands and asking, "Ouch, sir, I'm also worried about delaying your trip......

He stretched out his hand to take the silver coin in Han Dongwen's hand, but Han Dongwen suddenly withdrew his hand: "This is the round-trip car money, since we are all going around here, we will not go to Simeng Street today." ”

He turned his head to look at Porta: "You just said that the Grand Duke visited the cathedral, I remember that your Grand Duke of West Asia doesn't go to church very often, right?" ”

It was impossible to keep the people in the dark, and the coachman nodded blankly.

"Go to church."

Han Dongwen slapped the silver coin into the driver's hand and retracted it into the seat.

——————

In front of the cathedral.

Han Dongwen and Porta were forced to get out of the carriage when they were still far from the church—the crowd of onlookers was already crowded, pushing and shoving forward one by one, all wanting to see the appearance of the Grand Duke Tilda entering the church.

Inside the church, they can't get in.

Despite this, the crowd also frantically swarmed forward and moved.

Han Dongwen knew very well the reason why everyone did this - when he entered the church to pray, the Grand Duke would not wear the knightly silver armor, but would follow the tradition of West Asia and change into a ceremonial dress.

In the original "But Yin", the mission of the Principality of West Asia has a lot of legends looking back on the past, although the Grand Duke Tilda of that timeline is gone, but the Grand Duke Tilda on the CG and the atlas is really wearing a dress, and the real person must be on a higher level.

As for why she came to the church, Han Dongwen naturally knew it.

In the morning, Gao had a small meeting, and Tilda immediately set out to make contact with the Church of God, which almost made it clear that she was going to do something to the Holy Grail of the Church!

"Porta, keep up."

There were so many people that Han Dongwen had to turn around and tell the young man who was following him.

Porta nodded, he was not tall enough to have to walk around the crowd to see the scene in front of the church through the gaps - the guards of the Grand Ducal Mansion had set up a cordon, a carriage with the coat of arms of the Grand Ducal Mansion had stopped directly in front of the cathedral, and several men in the garb of the Episcopal Church were standing respectfully four or five steps in front of the carriage, waiting for Tilda to get off.

"That's ......"

Porta suddenly exclaimed, and Han Dongwen was stunned: "Who did you see?" ”

"That's the priest who gave my mother free medicine!"
