MTL - Civilization: Beyond Two Worlds-Chapter 820 You demolish that grandpa here!

As night fell, the Far Harbor lights up the street lights, and the two bicycles stopped leisurely, one after the other.

The rider in front jumped off the bike and stepped on the stand with one foot, making the bike stand on the side of the road. He turned his head and smiled and said, "Brother Zhang, this is it."

Zhang Lizhang Mianzhi, one of the members of the Aurora Mission, after Dongdu, under the auspices of Kant, more than 3,000 Dongdu aliens were evaluated and assigned to the four departments of the shogunate to participate in internships.

Adopt the model of old people and new people, so that these Dongduers can familiarize themselves with the new military, political and legal system as soon as possible, integrate into their new homes, adapt to their roles as quickly as possible, and then serve the Duke of Qin.

Shen Maocai, a friend who is proficient in the art of information from the agency, went to the Truth Division to try to practice the alchemy science of Qin Guogong's exotic alchemy and confirm it with what he had learned. Zhang Li was proud of his talent and did not ask for anything. He can go wherever Far Harbor needs him.

So it was assigned to the Ministry of Solidarity.

After all, among the four departments of the shogunate, the Unity Department is the least popular.

Those who sacrificed their lives to serve the country went to the Ministry of Peace to join the army, those who wanted to sharpen their weapons to strengthen their troops went to the Ministry of Truth, those who had the will to manage the country and assist the monarch went to the Ministry of Wealth to participate in administrative work, but the Ministry of Solidarity sounded like It is the most tasteless. Except for a group of people who were specially recruited, few people are willing to go there.

After all, everyone left their homes and businesses to cross the blue sea for the king to come to this exotic land. Everyone is determined and just wants to do something practical, but they don’t want to go to Honglu Temple to mess around.

Zhang Mianzhi, who was transferred to the Unity Department, was assigned to Han Mingxiu's subordinates...they had a small friendship. Han Mingxiu was the son of the Han family in Far Harbor. When the embassy arrived, this was the one who was in charge of fetching him and Shen Maocai. Han Mingxiu is an acquaintance.

Because of this relationship, the two get along well.

Han Mingxiu was very polite to Zhang Li, answered any questions he had, and never put on the air of his superiors. After all, the Han family in the far port had a lot of children... In other words, everyone who came from the Han family and entered the shogunate would know how to do things. Being told by the master, he taught me every day, especially after Aurora Dongdu.

Han Mingxiu firmly remembers the master's instruction - the Han family is highly valued by Qin Guogong, one is that he has been exposed to the light of his family, and the other is that when Qin Gongchu was temporary, the Han family was very determined to act and did a little thing for Qin Gong.

Other than that, there is no other reason.

The wealth of the family is huge, and it will never be in the eyes of Duke Qin, and it can be destroyed by laying hands, and the Han family, even if it is the son Guangcheng, is only a middle-aged person, and he cannot become Duke Qin's confidant like Mr. Hong. It will also gradually become blurred as time goes on. If the Han family wants to last a long time, they must be loyal and modest, act carefully everywhere, and never be arrogant... That is the way to die.

As soon as he thought of this, he smiled and stretched out his hand: "Brother Zhang, please."

After getting along with him for a few days, he already has a certain understanding of Zhang Mianzhi... As expected of a person in the country, he can only learn a hundred times better than him, and he must not be in the pool.

The master also instructed him personally, saying that these Dongdu scholars and warriors said that they were entering the four departments of the shogunate as an intern, but they were like the disciples of the emperor of Aurora. A good relationship now, no matter how you say it in the future, is a path.

Anyway, it's not to cling to the glory, but in the future, in case of trouble, if someone from the past can recite the little benefits of the past, and pull it up, maybe they can find a way to live for the whole family.

Zhang Mianzhi hurriedly said, "Brother Han, please."

In all fairness, if it was in Aurora, Han Mingxiu, a servant from a wealthy businessman, would really not be able to get into his eyes, even the owner of his family, Han Zezheng, would be nothing in Aurora... But this is in a foreign land, family, bloodline , background and even fame are not enough.

He came to Yuangang because of his own begging to serve, not by Kant. It is meaningless to play with the prestige of the disciples of the aristocratic family in front of Han Mingxiu. If you use it, it will be fatal, and it is not taken by the wise.

No matter what he thought in his heart, he was polite on the surface. The two of them declined, then smiled and walked towards the destination. As the diplomatic staff of the Ministry of Solidarity, their mission is to represent the Ministry of Solidarity and to the Empire. The envoy conveyed a response from the Duke of Qin, Kant.

Empire...

Zhang Mianzhi pondered in his heart.

After joining the Ministry of Solidarity, he has not been idle for a moment. He has read the information open to him in the database. He has a certain understanding of Qin Guogong's road to fortune and the way of governing the country, and he knows this powerful and exotic fellow Eclectic, meritocratic, and generous, caring for the people, courteous corporal.

It is indeed a good thing to have such a sage-like master with such a high moral standard, but this Duke Qin is not only strict with himself, but also strict with others. His "generous benevolence and love for the people" is reflected in two aspects.

First, I am sympathetic and sympathetic to the hardships of the common people, and I will ensure that they are well fed and clothed and have no worries about food and clothing.

Second, those who don't follow me or who sing against me will all die for your grandfather, and your ancestral graves will be dug for you.

The second rule is too uncomfortable. He looked at the cause of death of the nobles in the Far Harbor, and said in his heart that according to this kind of treatment, 99% of the aristocratic clans in the whole country will die. You can't stop the clans and businessmen from hoarding and exploiting Grass people, as you can't stop the sun from rising in the east and setting in the west.

But Qin Guogong really did this, and so far he has not been beaten to death by the nobles of the whole continent.

but…

He sighed in his heart, it seemed that he had heard bad wind in the past two days.

It seems that Qin Guogong's resolute and domineering actions finally ushered in the signs of backlash.

It's a pity that the position is inferior and the power is low... Even if he risked his death to persuade him, he would inevitably be scorned by him, and he would be driven away or even punished by a big sentence, which would have no effect.

It is better to do your own thing first, work hard to make merit, and enter Qin Guogong's sight.

Only by becoming his trusted confidant will he have the opportunity to give advice.

But now, he can only act as Han Mingxiu's accompanying adjutant and follow him as a microphone.

They knocked on the door of the Imperial office in Far Harbor, identified themselves to the guards, and were soon ushered into the main office building, which had recently been built.

The three-storey mansion is located in the scenic coastal new area of ​​Yuangang, with a beautiful and quiet environment. They were invited into the parlour and served black tea and desserts.

The two Aurora people sat upright, Zhang Mianzhi took a sip of the black tea in the cup, and his eyes lit up: "It was actually iced black tea mixed with Coca-Cola, the sweet taste adds to the refreshingness of the bubbles, and QQ candy is added. The tea bags are delicious, and there are several kinds of fruit aromas in the taste..."

Han Mingxiu frowned, took a sip, and said with a low smile, "Imperial guys like to do this kind of bells and whistles. I heard that the Duke heard about it and laughed for a long time."

Zhang Mianzhi said in surprise: "Is there anything wrong with this drinking method?"

"That's right." Han Mingxiu raised his eyebrows and smiled, "As long as these imperial guys are willing to spend money, it's okay to add cherry-flavored cola..."

When Zhang Li heard the words, he showed a pain in the flesh: "It's a waste of time for me to buy it... How can that thing be so bad? Are you sure it doesn't taste like bitter apricots?"

While speaking, footsteps sounded from outside, and the envoy wearing a noble dress stepped in with a reserved look, leaning on the imperial lion staff, with a decent smile on his face, decent and... proud.

"Good evening, you two." He smiled. "I thought Princess Tina was coming in person."

Han Mingxiu and Zhang Mianzhi, who stood up, looked slightly gloomy at the same time.

This is very rude... Because Princess Tina is not only the head of the Unity Department, but also Qin Guogong's fiancee, so it sounds very harsh.

But if you hold onto this sentence, it will sound like a big fuss. After all, the other party can infer that this is a purely official inquiry without any other meaning.

Zhang Mianzhi glanced at Han Mingxiu quietly.

The imperial envoy's rudeness, which was almost a joke, probably stemmed from the bad situation of Far Harbor at this time. At least he had heard that Griffin, the grand speaker of the Arcane Council, had mastered the magic tool technology to defend against forbidden spells.

This means that Duke Qin's biggest trump card to deter the mainland is about to fail.

If this is the case, it means that the great powers, organizations, nobles, and interest groups who were bullied and persecuted by Duke Qin's domineering style in the past will all unite in unison, revenge for revenge, and revenge for grievances. threat to drive it out of the mainland.

This envoy may have received domestic intelligence information and instructions, so he dared to be so arrogant... I want to judge the details of the far port through this kind of provocation.

Zhang Li sighed in his heart.

Therefore, he and Brother Han were going to visit the Imperial Office overnight, and there must be many colleagues who were also rushing to the embassies of various countries overnight to try their best to mediate diplomatically.

Although Far Harbor is strong, under the premise that the forbidden spell is invalid and war with the Council is required, facing the ill-intentioned eye of various countries, I am afraid that it can only swallow it up. From the perspective of Far Harbor’s consistent foreign policy, Internationally, I am afraid that there are few allies to speak for the far port.

If I knew this earlier, why should it be in the first place.

He looked calm, ready to listen to the information conveyed by Han Mingxiu, to welcome the ridicule of the imperial people... Then he used diplomatic rhetoric to fully safeguard the dignity of Qin Guogong and Yuangang, and interfered with the judgment of the imperial people.

"To convey Duke Kant's response to the Empire, it only takes us two unknowns."

Han Mingxiu opened his DD boy, Zhang Mianzhi also lifted up his little genius phone watch, he opened the task log, clicked the coordinates to confirm, and confirmed that he had come to the imperial office, then the task was updated, and the password appeared. He conveyed the password to Han Mingxiu.

Han Mingxiu entered the password, recognized the face, and opened the ultimatum of His Royal Highness Kant.

A soft curtain of light reflected Han Mingxiu's stunned face.

He just glanced at it, and after being shocked, he almost laughed out loud, and then withdrew his expression and looked at the imperial envoy on the opposite side... I heard that whether it is Far Harbor or Goethe, the imperial envoys change very diligently.

"Ambassador Rodlov, I have been authorized by Princess Tina, the head of the Unity Department, to convey to you the words from the Duke of Qin in response to your emperor's proposal to ask Duke Qin to explain Griffin's accusation."

"The Duke said..."

Han Mingxiu took a deep breath: "—Otto II, eat shit!"

The imperial envoy was even stunned for a few seconds, and then he reacted, he said abruptly: "Presumptuous!"

The imperial warriors who stayed in the side hall to guard were furious and rushed in with their swords drawn.

How dare you call your majesty by name! How dare you insult the emperor of the empire!

Zhang Mianzhi was also stunned! He had no idea that Qin Guogui would say such a thing! He even wanted to grab Han Mingxiu's DD boy to see if this guy was lying!

How can you say that? This is a family matter! That is the emperor of an empire!

"If you want to kill us, please wait a little longer, I haven't finished communicating it yet."

Facing the murderous intentions from all sides, Han Mingxiu said lightly: "The Duke's special request - Ambassador Rodloff must transmit his response to His Majesty the Emperor in its entirety without modification. If the Duke finds out through other channels that Mr. Words and deeds, there are some deletions, distortions and reservations about this sentence, then..."

He narrowed his eyes and said to the ambassador, "Then it's you who eat shit."

Rodlov's face flushed red, almost twisted and furious.

Han Mingxiu's tone was calm: "That's right, Ambassador, based on my experience of following the Duke for nearly half a year, I have to remind you that if the Duke tells you to eat shit, then you should prepare for the real thing."

After speaking, he took Zhang Mian back two steps and drew out the saber and pistol from his waist.

"Having said this, I am not good at fighting, but if the emperors of the empire want to use their swords together, then Han Mingxiu, as an employee of the shogunate, will definitely not wait to die. Finally, I warn you that once the battle starts, you will be cruising the sky and sky of the far port. The giant dragon will drop the transition beacon and deploy the rebels after twelve seconds, you all think about it."

Zhang Mianzhi didn't draw his weapon, but stared at the ambassador, his bones crackling.

Rodlov's face turned blue and white for a while, and suddenly waved his hand fiercely: "Get out of the way!"

Han Mingxiu smiled and retracted his weapon: "Farewell."

Behind him, the ambassador shouted: "I hope His Royal Highness Kant knows what he is doing."

"According to the etiquette, you should call him the Duke." Han Mingxiu stopped and said, "In addition, I will report what the ambassador mentioned about Princess Tina. I have little knowledge and do not understand the meaning and connotation of Mr. Ambassador, so I will report it truthfully. It can only be left to the Shangguan to judge."

The ambassador stood on the spot, with deep fear and anxiety in his eyes.

He suddenly wanted to slap himself.

Although the country asked him to be moderately provocative and come to explore Kant's bottom, he didn't tell him what to say... It was Rodlov himself who was pressed too hard by the Far Harbor and wanted to take the opportunity to vent his anger. Who knows...

He froze for a long time, and suddenly shouted: "Where is the priest! Where is the priest!"

Inviting the priests who served as private priests and doctors, he hesitated for a long time, then gathered up his courage and said, "Your Excellency, I have a question to ask you, please keep it a secret and don't laugh at me."

The priest didn't know what it meant, but he had professional experience: "Please rest assured, keeping secrets and honesty are virtues praised by the gods, and I will not tell anything you said."

"That's good," the ambassador said sincerely. "I have a friend who ate a lot of shit. Will he die? Is there a way to save him, and a spell that can make him forget his nightmare experience?"

"…"

outside the embassy.

The two bikes were pedaling fast.

"It's so hastily, it's cool, it's cool!"

Han Mingxiu, who was in front of him, laughed out loud and felt cold all over. It felt like his sweat was being blown dry.

Zhang Mianzhi's face was sinking like water, and he didn't say a word.

After completing the task remotely, submitting a recording certificate, writing an electronic report, and getting a response, the task is completed. Because it is night time, there are overtime allowances.

And after finishing this task, even if they officially got off work, Han Mingxiu dragged Zhang Mianzhi to a barbecue stall and opened two bottles of Tsingtao beer.

"I don't know."

Zhang Li said with a sullen face: "What's the point of this kind of quick talk?"

Han Mingxiu was still overjoyed: "The meaning is cool."

The people of Aurora feel more and more unreasonable: "A major national event! It's so disrespectful... It's an envoy of a country, and behind it is a monarch of a country! What should I do if I only want to talk quickly and cause troubles?"

Han Mingxiu filled Zhang Li with wine and said, "It's as if we are going to be small today, and the empire will not take advantage of the situation... Brother, you are good at everything, but you are too polite. This world doesn't talk like that. Especially between countries, there is no morality, only the size of the fist and the number of interests."

"As long as we are strong, we are the eighth generation ancestors who scolded the emperor, and the emperor should not hear it. But if we are weak and weak, even if we kneel to kowtow to the emperor, the emperor will be excited because we stepped on the left foot first when we entered the door. Get angry, think you've been insulted, and send an army to conquer."

"I understand the truth." Zhang Li took a sigh of relief, "But now is not the time to be strong, isn't the current situation very bad? A group of enemies are around, the battle is imminent, we..."

Han Mingxiu said lightly, "We will win."

Zhang Mianzhi was surprised at first and then delighted: "Is there any news about Brother Han? If it is not confidential, can you tell me?"

The son of the Han family shook his head and said, "No news, our task today is news... Since the Duke dares to talk to the emperor like this, it means we can win!"

It took Zhang Li more than ten seconds to sort out the cause and effect of this statement.

He said incredulously, "Is it that simple?"

"It's that simple."

"This... this is not right!" Zhang Li shook his head and said, "How can you place hope and confidence on this! This has no reason and is very dangerous!"

"Brother, I know you are new here and don't know much about the situation. If you speak louder, you will be beaten." Han Mingxiu smiled, "Have you seen the streets this way? Because His Royal Highness is in A few words were said on the radio, so everyone didn’t worry anymore, everyone thought we would definitely win, so they went to work calmly, got off work calmly, and did their own thing calmly.”

"Workers do their own things, carry, do work, debug, and drive. Soldiers do their own things, train, prepare, fight, and charge... Because they can win, because everyone believes that as long as they do it step by step Take care of your own business, and the duke will surely lead us to victory."

Zhang Li murmured, "This...this is still a bit too..."

Han Mingxiu smiled and said, "Very wishful thinking, very irrational, and very inexplicable? That's because you haven't seen Far Harbor half a year ago or a year ago, and you haven't experienced what happened in the past few months."

"Ask the people on the street why they believe the Duke? They will think you are an idiot, and they will ask you for granted. If you don't believe in His Royal Highness Kant, who should you believe?"

Before he finished speaking, the owner of the barbecue stall came over with two plates of steaming grilled skewers: "Giving two skewers of King of Kings grilled sausages, Mr. Han, lower your voice just in case. Guests will come later, I will They will also be arranged to stay away from you, keep it secret, don't let the secret agents hear the secret."

Han Mingxiu got up and took the baking tray, with a big smile on her face: "I have a job, but if it's a confidential matter, I won't talk about it here, thank you for reminding me."

He joked with the boss and put down the baking tray: "Come, come, eat while it's hot."

Zhang Li glanced at him and said with a smile: "Brother Han is dignified in front of the imperial ambassador, neither humble nor arrogant, but in front of the owner of this small shop, he is polite, he really has the style of ancient famous officials."

When Han Mingxiu saw that he seemed to have turned a corner, he was relieved.

Immediately, as if thinking of something, he said sternly: "Brother, one yard is one yard, don't blame the foolish brother for talking too much, this Qin Guogong's subordinates are different from other places, and they can't play official prestige."

He grabbed five strings of pork belly and handed them over. He took a string of grilled wings and took a bite. He said, "Today, Brother Yu is acting arrogantly in front of the imperial people. Naturally, he is very majestic. But this majesty was lent to me by His Royal Highness Kant. Lend me this prestige and let me be arrogant in front of the imperial people, it is for me to do things, and he will only allow me to be majestic in front of the imperial people today, if there is no order in the future, I have to be polite to the ambassador."

"And if I don't know the seriousness, and use this prestige to play in front of my colleagues, I will probably be demoted and punished, and my future will be worrisome, or even go further, if I take the prestige lent to me by His Highness in the barbecue stall owner, these commoners. Playing in front of me, or even making some money, then I'm not far from death."

After speaking, he pointed to the clothes on his body: "This skin is the prestige that His Highness lent me, if I am not an employee of the Ministry of Solidarity, but a child of the Han family, the imperial ambassador will run over me with one finger, so what? , If I want to be so majestic, I have to know when to use this majesty."

Zhang Li was surprised to hear this.

Unexpectedly, Han Mingxiu, who came from a humble background, would have such a realization.

He toasted each other: "Brother Han can think of this festival, the future is destined to be bright."

"Part of it was taught to me by the master, and the other part was pondered by me... Ah, I can't be called the master, but the uncle." Han Mingxiu smiled, "No one in the Han family calls the master the master anymore, not even the maids and servants. Don't cry like that anymore."

Zhang Liqi said, "Why is this?"

Han Mingxiu put down the cup: "The uncle asked himself... He said that from now on, there will be no master in the Han family, and people are not allowed to kneel and kneel. All the people who sold themselves into the mansion before have sent back the documents, and those who are willing to stay will sign the employees. contract, and from now on, they will be used as employees.”

Zhang Li was more and more surprised. Han Mansion was considered a wealthy family in the Far Harbor. Compared with Aurora, he felt that those wealthy and powerful families who valued the superiority and inferiority would never do such a thing: "What's the reason for this?"

"There's probably only one reason why the old... let the uncle be so attentive, and that is..."

Han Mingxiu pointed with a smile.

"There's nothing wrong with Chaosheng Manor."

Zhang Mianzhi was stunned for a long time, drinking a full glass: "I regret it, I should have gone to the Ministry of Peace."

Han Mingxiu said hehe: "The virtuous brother is a great talent, and following the foolish brother is indeed a poor talent, but the Unity Department is not the only job like us who talk **** with people all day..."

"My virtuous brother is unforgettable, attentive, and known for being decisive, calm and composed. If I expected it right, if there was a fight just now, I am afraid that the imperial ambassador will be captured by you in the blink of an eye..."

He smiled: "Why don't you try espionage and special warfare work? The Unity Ministry has its own armed forces and combat missions, which can allow smart people like you to use their talents."

Zhang Li drank the cool beer and said softly, "That must be after this battle."

"Yeah." Han Mingxiu said flatly, "We will definitely win... The Duke will definitely win!"

The two clink glasses again, the yellow wine swayed and collided, Zhang Li was slightly drunk, and looked at Chaosheng Manor.

Kang Jun... Qin Guogong.

Your ambitions and your avenues, Zhang has not yet fully clarified, although he has objections and criticisms to some of your actions, it may make the officials and people in the city so trustworthy and worthy of being outstanding.

It's just that you, who have pinned the hopes of so many people, in this all-seeing eye, what are you going to do to ensure the continuation of everyone's confidence and another miraculous victory?

Now, what are you doing to prepare?

—Zhang Mianzhi was dazed and couldn't think of where Duke Qin was now.

"Have you never seen Kant show up?"

"I haven't seen him appear in China... At least he didn't show up in public. As for whether he went home, we don't know." Someone reported on the phone, "After all, we stopped all surveillance on Kant's house. Although his floor Our people live up and down and in the neighbors, and anyone entering or leaving the community and residential buildings is closely monitored, but we will not directly follow the situation in his home."

"Your approach is correct, after all, we are dealing with this little comrade now, and we must maintain basic sincerity and respect..." The indescribable voice laughed, "We don't directly spy on his family and privacy, we don't make it public. What new discoveries do we have in the news thread of ?"

"No major discoveries, these days, Kant is just doing random shopping, or calling advisors to ask some questions, and continuing to buy."

Relevant personnel reported: "It is nothing more than some food, clothing, building materials and arms, etc., which are continuously delivered to Comora and Jurban, and all of them are used locally, without any omission or reduction."

The indescribable voice pondered.

"However, I also bought some relatively high-end technological materials."

"Oh?"

"For example, two days ago, he instructed the AWSL procurement department to purchase 4 hafnium pentacarbonate worth more than $10 million from foreign companies...a little over a ton."

"what is that?"

"Substance with the highest melting point known in the world, commonly used in heat-resistant materials for spacecraft."

"What did he buy this for?"

"We're trying to figure it out."

"Such heat-resistant aerospace materials... Does he want to go to the sun to see? Hahahahaha."

"Hahahahaha..."

"Just ask, since he bought it through the company, he is not afraid that we will know. You can ask him what requirements he has. It's better to support the domestic product... Hey, wait a minute, someone is looking for me..."

The voice of the report also sounded: "Chief, someone is looking for me too! It's an emergency!"

At the same time, in the western hemisphere, North America, on a sunny morning, a cool breeze blows from Lake Huron, which is bounded by the lake and is the border area between the United States and Canada.

"Ah, see, that's it."

Kant put down the telescope, thought about it, found a top, took a whip, whipped it a few times, and threw it onto the blue lake Huron.

"The gibberish spell has long been forgotten, but I can still summon it—"

Kant shouted: "Come out! Titan Warriors!"

The huge phase gate unfolds horizontally from the lake, and the splendid rays of light interweave complicated arcane circuits. The head of the Titan, shining with majestic thunder, slowly protrudes from the portal, like a giant of water emerging from the lake, and the sky oscillates with thunder. , as if the giant who walked out of the myth opened his thunder-like electric eyes, and the place he looked at was precisely located in the west of Ontario, on the Bruno Peninsula…

— Bruno Nuclear Power Plant!

Since the Fukushima accident, this is the most powerful nuclear power plant in the world.

"The dog is forced to add to the cannabis, you are here to demolish that grandfather!"
