Duke of Herrington

Chapter 30 'The Earl' of Herrington

In the lord's mansion, Chris handed the documents to Ted, suppressed a smile and said, "My lord, you must not be able to guess what the fifth prince is doing!?"

"Then what can't be guessed? Do you want me to dig out some more food?"

Chris smiled slightly, reached out and pulled the chair away, sat on it slowly, crossed his legs and shook his head: "Guess!"

"What's the point of guessing? The royal family from the imperial capital, either came to promulgate new laws of the empire, or came to ask for money and food, what else?" Ted took out two cans of Coke and poured them Among the cups, he pushed out one of the cups with his fingertips, and made a gesture of asking: "Don't be a snob, my dear housekeeper, just tell me~"

You don't need to whet your appetite to be a joke, it's enough to relieve your nervousness a little~!

So Chris directly changed the content to another way of expression, and responded in a tone that did not say, but said: "No problem, Lord 'Earl' Herrington!"

"???"

When Ted heard the incredible words, he couldn't help but lean back tactically in a small area, then leaned forward with his eyes wide open, and pointed at himself: "You mean, the emperor asked me to be an earl?"

Chris put the document in his hand on the table: "Now, if we want this title, we have to let the Fifth Prince live, or we have to wait. So, let them live? Your lord?"

"Of course~"

Opening the handed scroll, Ted read it with great interest, but the more he looked at it, the more he felt that something was wrong: "Ah, it said that we helped win the war, and apart from this useless title, we didn't give you a penny?"

Chris let out a 'hmm', stretched out his right index finger and shook it lightly in denial: "My lord, I can't understand it that way. The title of earl is much more useful than viscount. In the future, when you introduce yourself, you can directly say that you are Bei The Earl of Jing, rather than Lord Valentine, is more magnificent and magnificent!"

"Besides, the emperor didn't give us this title for nothing. He gave us all the snow-capped mountains in the north. Just because of this, I don't think it's an exaggeration for all of us to kowtow to the emperor."

Ted read back dubiously, and sure enough, he discovered this statement, and then he laughed at these ignorant nobles: "These idiots don't even know what they gave."

Beside him, Chris picked up the notebook, opened the notes he had made while reading the book, and said with a smile: "My lord, according to the information in the book, there is a high probability that there will be huge amounts of coal, oil, and metal mines hidden in these mountains. Even if we don't have the ability to mine now, we can occupy a hole in advance! Dispel other people's ideas!"

"Right!" Ted originally had the same dislike for the royal family as his ancestors did, but looking at the things in front of him, it seems that the current royal family is just okay, not that bad.

"Since this is the case, let's be more polite. We will hold a banquet in the living room tomorrow afternoon, and make more delicious food that these bumpkins have never seen before!"

"No problem, my lord, it will definitely make them doubt life!"

"Hahahahaha" The two looked at each other and smiled, as if two big villains conspired to get something valuable.

With Ted's current capabilities, it will take 20 or even 50 years to refine oil to perfection!It is not easy to maximize the utilization of oil, and now he can only make do with coal mines.
The high-tech products after World War II range from hundreds of thousands of stars to tens of millions. A satellite costs [-] million stars. Even if I save all the refugees in the world, I still can't make up enough of them.

The existing method is to use free books and spend some star coins to print them out, so that people who can understand can read them!

In this way, you can share your tasks and be more efficient!Besides, there is no need for a person to know everything!Because the power of the collective is the greatest!

If someone understands "The Theory of Relativity" and "Quantum Mechanics", Ted will definitely find a way to make him live a few more years.

Thinking of the moon elves who seem to be new here, their lifespan is longer. If they come to be scholars, wouldn't they be able to study for hundreds of thousands of years?

Thinking about it this way makes me happy!If there is a physics god like Einstein and Heisenberg among this group of people, he can think of it with his heels. A god who can live for tens of thousands of years and has a clear mind will make science develop to the next level. What a ghost! ?

Ted didn't dare to think about it anymore, he had to wait until he was depressed to bring it up for fun!If he really found such a fairy now, he would probably go into shock on the spot
Under the leadership of the person in charge, the fifth prince was ushered into a clean and tidy room, which was the same as the outside, except for his own body odor, there was no other odor, only a faint smell of wood and flowers.

After introducing the room, the person in charge turned his head to look at the group of people, and explained with disgust on his face: "Everyone, people in the north usually take a bath every day. In our culture, demons will crawl out of the cesspit. Dirty represents Cursed and demon-possessed! So please do as the Romans do, and I will bring you hot water~ After all, you have to stay here until the snow stops in April next year~”

The person in charge raised his hat pretentiously to show respect, then distributed the bathing supplies to the prince's team, and then left with a smile on his head.
Although it has only been less than three months since the beginning of this culture, in everyone's eyes, it seems to be an inseparable part of the culture that was born and raised in the north, as if it was inherited from thousands of years ago!

Under the leadership and rewards of the lord, everyone firmly believes in maintaining hygiene, and sometimes teaches advanced bathing methods, including the technique of removing unnecessary hair on the body.
Da Vinci frowned, holding the fragrant toiletries in his hand, he always felt uncomfortable: "No wonder they look so clean, but will it be disrespectful to God?"

"Stop complaining, Sir Da Vinci, let's listen to them, there's no need to make trouble! As for God, it won't be long before we go back to the imperial capital to buy an indulgence note?"

"Your Highness is right!"

The two thought they were God's servants, and as long as they spent a lot of money to buy indulgences, they expressed their apology to God. Then ~ the generous and loving God will definitely forgive their sins and will not come to trouble you!

An hour later, Da Vinci soaked in the water, stretched comfortably, and yawned for nearly 8 seconds. The feeling of falling into the clouds was like traveling in heaven!
After a long time, he opened his eyes and confessed: "Lord, I am guilty! How dare you take a bath!? This is really disrespectful to you."

But he howled comfortably in his heart: "It's so comfortable, so the feeling of betraying the Lord is so subtle! So cool! Could this be the feeling of betrayal? It seems that taking a bath every day is essential!"

In another bathroom, the Fifth Prince looked at the bottles and cans in front of him, as well as the thing called "God's Glove", and fell into deep thought.
"Could it be... After so many years, we were wrong?" Steve sighed, closed his eyes and enjoyed it.

Suddenly, the door was opened, a sweet-looking, plump moon elf beauty, half covered with light gauze, came to the bathroom room with a hot water bottle, put the hot water where the prince could get it, and left quickly .

Just for a moment, the two looked at each other, and an inexplicable evil fire shot out from the bottom of Steve's heart.
"No, no, no! I'm a married man. If I have a love affair, wouldn't I be the same as other unfaithful people?" He shook his head quickly and drank half a glass of ice water to forcefully dispel the evil fire.

As everyone knows, the moon elf just now did it on purpose, she wanted to test whether the prince is loyal to his wife, so that she can carry out her future plans.
These people spent a total of nearly 4 hours in the shower before washing off everything on their bodies!
Putting on the new clothes he brought, and walking in front of the mirror, Steve felt his whole body float up.

"It seems that this is not bad?"

He put down the bath items in his hand, sat on the sofa and enjoyed the taste of pure air!Even the smell of wood is extraordinarily sweet.

Suddenly, a burst of anxious shouts came: "Your Highness!"

"Sir Da Vinci? Why are you in such a panic?"

"Your Highness, come down for dinner, they have brought a lot of good things!"

"Oh?" Regarding the food issue, Steve noticed something was wrong from the moment he entered the door.

It's cold and windy outside, and the miles are frozen, and then the residents of the northern border wear thick clothes and eat vegetables at home?

The fresh fruits and vegetables on the sales counter are as if they have just been picked, and still have the taste of summer!
To break the sky, Steve doesn't know how this is done?
"Could it be that cold weather can really preserve freshness? But even if it can preserve freshness, it's a bit too much."

Steve shook his head and stopped thinking, but followed Da Vinci and led the guards to the restaurant below.
Just a random sweep, the prince was dumbfounded
"My God! Can you still eat grapes here?"

Grapes are such a precious thing, after they are picked, their shelf life will be shortened rapidly!
Transported from the central to the north, at least half will rot on the way
In this cold winter season, only the top nobles in the imperial capital can eat this extravagant fruit, but the north actually treats themselves with this thing?This is the standard for entertaining the emperor!
"Ahem! Even if you treat me to grapes, I have to ask! Why did you treat me like this when you entered the city!"
