Early the next morning, not long after the rooster crowed, Sinampe had to get up from the bed and follow Theresa to the town of Aliai, twenty miles away.

It is said to be a town, but in fact Aliai is a very prosperous industrial and commercial town, with a non-agricultural population of 20,000 people, which is quite large in this era, and the royal capital of Pali, which is mainly used for political and military functions, is not as prosperous as here.

Sinampei yawned and slandered the backwardness of this era, and the stupid aristocrats - if you don't live in a good city, you have to nest in your own manor in the countryside.

Although the trend is not yet obvious, anyone with a discerning eye should be able to see that the center of humanity in the future will be in the cities, not in the countryside where agricultural products are supplied.

In fact, this is also the limitation of Sinan Pei's understanding, on this continent similar to Western Europe, the city is not led by the government like Huaxia, but by the spontaneous construction of industrial and commercial people and rural fugitive slaves, more of a commercial function than a political function, the most significant feature is that some industrial and commercial towns do not have walls at all, such as the town of Aliai in front of you. And the aristocrats are nested in the countryside, I am afraid it is more out of financial and defensive considerations.

To Sinampei's flattery, Theresa invited her to sit in her gold-studded carriage, while her poor maid, a little girl named Kara, could only sit in front of her and go out with the coachman.

This kind of thing happened, in fact, because of a small episode. When Sinampe first arrived, Theresa once gave him a horse and asked him to put on that suit and guard him like a knight around him - in fact, it was a clown. But how can you ride a horse in a suit? And Sinampei, who is a ** silk, has never learned! After almost falling to his death, Theresa bought a donkey with black lines and handed it to him: "You can ride this in the future." So as a last resort, Sinan Peizhen rode a donkey for a long time. But considering that he was going to do business today, it was impossible to embarrass Sinampei too much, so Theresa invited him to get into his carriage.

But the bad road conditions and the carriage without springs still knocked Sinampei half to death. Sitting in the carriage and feeling the medieval bumps, he hated that he should take the time to get the spring carriage and the concrete road out! For this bad road condition, Sinampei gritted his teeth and hated it. On the earth in the 21 st century, even the poor African countries have much better road conditions than the current mud roads! Once it rains, Sinampei simply doesn't know how to travel.

In contrast, Theresa, who was beside him, was radiant and full of spirit.

Rubbing his swollen forehead, Sinampei really couldn't understand, how could Theresa, who talked to him so late last night, be so energetic? Could it be a physical problem? Sinampei was very sad to find that as a modern person, he really had nothing but wisdom and knowledge in this era, and if he was away from the servant for two days, he would have to hang up for various reasons.

As the carriage pulled into the town of Alie, the road began to flatten, and Sinampe no longer felt the bumps. Although the town is still dirt roads, the road surface that has been trampled by pedestrians is very solid.

But there is still something he is unhappy about, and that is the livestock manure that can be found everywhere. Although he had seen this in the countryside for a while, and this was not the first time Sinampe had come to Alie Town—this was the first place he had crossed over, and he had also been here to deal with the soap factory, but seeing these filthy things appear in the city still made Sinampe frown. He was too accustomed to modern civilization, and he was not used to the style of the Middle Ages.

Looking at Theresa, who was sitting next to her, although noble but seemed to be accustomed to this qiē, Sinampei began to wonder if she was a little too spoiled herself, and whether this pampering was fatal in this era?

The carriage stopped at the church first, and Sinampe got out of the carriage first, and then helped Theresa down like a gentleman.

This scene aroused the onlookers of the surrounding citizens.

It's been two months since he came to Eugenia, and Sinan Pei has already become the biggest news within a hundred miles, and Si Nanpei has long understood this, but he still can't be happy to be treated as a protected animal. Although his heart is not sensitive, it will take a long time for Sinampei, who has never been a public figure, to adapt to this feeling of being in the limelight.

All of Sinanpei's feelings converged into three words, that is: "It's not cool!"

Fortunately, nothing major changed this time, and no citizens raised any objections to Sinampe and Theresa sharing a carriage, because in the past two months, the citizens of Alie Town have made a 180-degree turn in their senses about Sinampei, from the beginning of the otherworldly devil, to the later exotic clown, and then to the current "distressed alien nobles", and even a small group of gossip-loving idlers began to speculate whether Sinampei would be a "down-and-out prince".

The changes in this are not insignificant, and it is funny to say that what can make Sinampei such a reputation is not only his talent, but also his "cleanliness". Unfortunately, this reputation for cleanliness is greater than the reputation of building a soap factory, and some of the small nobles who came here asserted that Sinampe was a "real nobleman" after seeing the strict hygiene standards of Sinampena in this era. Ordinary civilians have to pay attention to this kind of process, and they can't get by!

It was the first time for Sinampe to come to the church. However, it is not the first time that Sinampe has seen this building, because it is the tallest building in the town of Alie, and as long as there is no shelter, it can be seen in every corner of the town.

The first thing Sinampei felt when he saw it was towering into the sky. Perhaps this church can be regarded as short compared to the architecture of the earth, but the Gothic-like architectural style still gives him a strong sense of impact, and the sharp towers reach into the sky, fully demonstrating the majesty and grandeur of the church.

Judging by the inscriptions on the walls, this magnificent church was built by the citizens of the entire town of Alière, and it has only been twenty years since it was built, and judging from the list engraved on the side, the largest donation is made by a noblewoman named Cristina de Auvergne, which accounts for 49 percent.

Sinampei guessed that she might be Theresa's mother. However, to his surprise, her title was not a lady, but a "duchess". This shows that Theresa's title was not inherited from her father at all!

It seems that the Auvergne family really has a story. Sinan Pei couldn't help but sigh.
