Damn it, this boss really has no normal skills.

Chapter 344 How dare you look down on me, I will kill your whole family!
Although the main purpose of building Jueqiao Pass was to serve as the southern gateway of the kingdom to resist barbarian invasions, the Holy Tree Kingdom in its heyday was absolutely human... when the elven stars were shining.

Therefore, in addition to the most basic military role, this group of the kingdom's most valuable talented designers are far-sighted and have fully considered its additional needs as a wonder building.

For example, how should patrolling soldiers pass efficiently, how should merchants pass through the border quickly, how should residents in the city be reasonably resettled, and where in the city should urban areas with different functions such as military, commerce, residence, and production be planned? Only in this way can the region be perfect.

Even while meeting all the above requirements, they also innovatively solved the details of the durability of pass facilities and how to easily maintain and replace them in the future. Therefore, if there are some weird magazines in the Glow Kingdom, there should be one. This is a classic article like "Holy Tree Oil Paper Packet".

Of course, as a long-lived species with a long lifespan that can be squandered casually, the art-loving elves did not forget to carve patterns and colors on this plate, or in other words, this pot of delicacies. In fact, it was not until the fall of the Holy Tree Kingdom that the art of Jue Qiaoguan was optimized. All are still ongoing.

"I see……"

Being able to guard such an ancient and great building, the Juejiao family would naturally not miss the opportunity to profit from it.

Ever since they were entrusted by the first Sun King five hundred years ago, they have been working hard to build the city's business card. There is no need to mention the taxes for merchants to go through customs and do business. The annual income from tourism and surrounding areas is enough to make many nobles Sore to the point of itching your teeth.

Therefore, after hearing that there was a Holy Light Chosen in the convoy who had never been to the Kingdom of Glow, in addition to what every passenger would get, a promotional pamphlet called "Ten Minutes to Take You to Understand the Jueqiao Pass", sniff When the guard saw the opportunity to perform a meritorious service, he enthusiastically gave Ji Ming a copy of "The Complete History of Jueqiao Pass" that was thick enough to be used as a shield.

Before the carriage arrived at the hotel where they were staying, Ji Ming, who knew that knowing yourself and your enemy was the only way to win a hundred battles, quickly scanned the contents of the brochure, and raised his head strangely after reading the last line.

"Why does this smell a bit familiar? Little boss, do you have any clues?"

[The first generation of Duke Jueqiao was the second-most war commander under the Sun Throne. When fighting against the Orc army going south, he joined forces with Giuseppe, who was still rebelling against the king. After a hearty victory, he was defeated by Giuseppe, who was in high spirits, gave some tips on how to make money...]

"Wait a minute, can the little lion do such a useless thing? Let me guess, the war commander is a blonde, blue-eyed, domineering, tall beauty who likes to pout her mouth?"

[No, he is an unshaven, curly-haired uncle who likes to hold a bucket and drink heavily]

"what?"

[But his mother, who lost her husband early in life, is]

"...Although he is very naughty, I know it! This old boy must have no good intentions!"

At this moment, the death knight who was still sitting in the prison car said: "Wow, I didn't know, so it turns out that dead people can sneeze too?"

[Anyway, the war commander later put it into practice and found that Giuseppe's nickname of "God of Wealth" was indeed true. Following his ideas really made him a lot of money, and he even had extra military expenses to support other commanders. 】

[After the Sun King obtained the protection of the Holy Light God and announced the establishment of the Kingdom of Glow, the Warmaster recalled that when Giuseppe was drunk at the banquet, he once mentioned something extremely relevant, saying that there was a ready-made A complete set of infrastructure, the losses suffered in this civil strife and military disaster are also the lowest. If you occupy this place, you can declare yourself a king when you advance, and you can support your troops and respect yourself when you retreat. It is the best place in the world for a minister]

[So he gave up the fertile fiefdom in the northeast of the kingdom, where rice could be harvested three times a year, gave up the opportunity to become in-laws with many commanders, and become the leader of the noble group, and resolutely chose to guard Jueqiao Pass and be the guardian of the southern border of the kingdom. god】

[The ending is that five hundred years have passed, and the ruling families of the year have either deteriorated, declined, or simply disappeared into the smoke and dust of history. Even the descendants of the Sun King have declined in quality and become dull and incompetent. The family still maintains a strong vitality. While enjoying the highest standards of aristocratic treatment and the trust of the royal family, it sits on the cliff and remains standing.]

"Ha, this is the wisdom of giving and receiving."

After Ji Ming finished listening to the little boss's story session, the carriage finally began to slow down and stopped under the light and shadow of a magic street lamp in the cold wind blowing at night.

Since he was going to meet the heir of such a glorious family, he had better show an attitude worthy of his status. So listening to the solemn music coming from outside, Ji Ming took out a mirror and adjusted his appearance.

After straightening his collar and unfurling his clothes, he put on the laurel crown under the iconic halo of God's Chosen. It was held by the old lady herself and once represented the elven sage. As the charm value increased, he appeared on the stage. The rate is getting lower and lower.

After getting off the carriage, the square on the left side of the road was indeed crowded with people. Ji Ming wanted to take a look at what Zhiyue Laodeng looked like, but he was greeted by a tall man in black clothes with a red flower on his chest. The old man blocked the way.

"Hello, Dear Chosen God, Mr. Duke is preparing a small banquet here to welcome you all, and please be sure to attend the meeting with your honor."

There was no other way, people were sending human flesh invitations to his face, so Ji Ming could only smile politely.

"Since that's the case, please ask the old gentleman to lead the way."

Although the carriages of the three people were located in the same place, as VIPs, they naturally could not enter the venue at the same time and had to be arranged in order. Therefore, the old man who welcomed the guests took Ji Ming not in the direction of the banquet hall, but in the name of a tour introduction. In name, let’s take a walk outside first.

This is normal. Although he is the favored choice of God, Tenis is a real Archbishop of the Holy See. Compared with the future leader, the current leader must have more need to fawn over. Where should I put this? The world is a universal truth.

But when the little old man smiled and led him around for the second time, Ji Ming felt a little uncomfortable. He quietly brought the topic to Eleanor, wondering how this girl could have a higher status than me. ?

Then I saw the little old man's face straightened up, and even his voice became a little more serious.

"Yes, Princess Eleanor's reputation is indeed good in the capital. I have heard about it in this remote cliff."

……

First of all, it is no surprise that the aristocratic group who also came from the military and were awarded war merits. If today's aristocrats in the northern border of the deep forest are tigers, leopards and wolves who eat meat and drink blood equally at home and abroad, and treat both the enemy and us with skill and plunder, then the aristocrats of the Northeast have long ago They became a bunch of useless puppies and big sheep.

As for why it is described like this...

One gets excited and wants to ride on everything he sees; one walks around with an unprotected drum all day long, isn't that...

Therefore, they are not willing to leave the rich northern part of the kingdom at all. There is only one possibility to come to the south, and that is to participate in the youth summer camp with the theme of "Retracing the Path of the Ancestors". After being touched by themselves, they can continue to lie down and enjoy the time when their ancestors followed the emperor. The blessing of entering the customs together with Ama.

Although the royal family is a little better than this and is willing to suffer some hardships due to the trend of responsibility, no one is willing to be brave enough to go south to Jueqiao Pass. It would be good to experience the hard work of the soldiers of Xia Bianguan here. Who has time to spare? It hurts, I really pushed myself into danger.

Of course, there are exceptions to everything, and there are always a few brave and action-minded young people, such as our female junior high school students. But so what?
Indeed, the boss's daughter is here, and everyone should treat her as an ancestor. Otherwise, if someone catches her disrespecting the king and writes a special letter back to the capital, even if she can be settled, it will be very uncomfortable. There is no need to suffer such an unreasonable disaster.

But I am also a saint appointed by the patron saint, so does my background have a small background?

"Tell me, old sun, do you favor me?"

[Savior, if the Holy Light God says that it really doesn’t work anymore, he will just call you daddy]

"Huh? That's unnecessary. It's too presumptuous."

Moreover, although he mentioned the shortage around him, he also deliberately omitted some experiences and skills that were more sensitive and might be wary of. But the current abridged version of his resume is really not a flower vase.

Not to mention that the technology for making high-quality rejuvenation fluid is still in the hands of himself and Adele. Even if he tries to teach players the craftsmanship of making talisman armor, he has not been able to produce big products for the time being. In light of the fact that he is "possessed by the God of Holy Light" , try your best to defeat the shadow incarnation"

——Brother, this is plated with a layer of real gold!

And no matter how hard Eleanor grows and strives to become the protagonist, it is impossible for her age and identity to be comparable to her. Otherwise, by the end of the story, the old man would have started boasting with joy.

So Ji Ming can only attribute the reason to two points.

First, Duke Jueqiao can really lick. He has mastered the ability to bend his little waist when it needs to be bent. He can be regarded as a serious hero.

Another point is that his father is really awesome. Compared with his father, his wrist is somewhat soft.

"Ah~"

[He said that he was already reflecting on it]

"Alas~"

However, all of the above is just Ji Ming doing brainstorming and training in his spare time. How could he really remember a way to die for others because of this? He still cares about face and cannot commit such atrocities.

So after walking around with the old man again, he kept a kind smile and walked steadily towards the hall as if he hadn't discovered anything.

Seeing how the Divine Chosen could be so calm, the old butler in charge of welcoming guests finally completely broke down his psychological defenses under the pressure of his high charm, and whispered tremblingly.

"Sir, I think you can see it. In fact, it's not that we don't understand etiquette, but that we have reasons for doing this. Please forgive me..."

Ji Ming: Smile.

I'm sorry for your grandma's size! You can tell me what the reason is!

But before he could even hint at the answer, he had already arrived at the main door of the hall. The old housekeeper quickly grabbed the door handle and pushed it open as if he was relieved.

"you……"

As the heavy wooden door was pushed open, the sound of music in the splendid hall suddenly increased. Guests coming and going were holding wine glasses, pretending to just realize that the distinguished guest was coming.

Although wealth can be found at risk, a stable environment is still very important. Therefore, compared with the chaotic Sunshine City, the number of merchants here is obviously much larger, and compared with the banquet held by Sola, the quality of the personnel is also lower. It has improved a lot, at least there are not many clowns who don't know how to pretend to understand and pretend to be elegant.

——Because they are all clowns at this moment.

According to Huiguang's rules, when a heavyweight guest appears at the banquet, each guest must offer a nearly overflowing glass of wine to represent his or her highest blessings and greetings.

That's all. Drinking a glass of wine or table wine is not a difficult task for wine shop veterans. But the problem is that this tradition was born out of the Northeast aristocrats who were once full of martial virtue. Therefore, according to the most traditional rules, this glass The wine should be a spirit with a fairly high alcohol content, which is also a sign of respect.

Of course, such a long time has passed. In other places, even in the territory of the Northeast nobles, as long as you are thick-skinned, you can still escape this rule, but who told them that they are now located in the fiefdom of the descendants of the war commander? So this glass of strong alcohol that is almost burning through your throat must be suffocated.

If that's the case, it actually doesn't matter. Generally speaking, it's good to have a VIP guest with enough weight in a banquet. It's not difficult to practice the ability to drink for a glass of wine. After all, if you want to stand out, this is How can the suffering be unbearable?
But the problem is that there are three of them in this meeting, which is unexpected and unexpected, so...

Tenis Duying, the archbishop of the Holy Light Church who guards the border, the daughter of the succubus who brought disaster to the country, the leader of the succubus ascetic sect, a big shot who just suppressed a lot of terrifying and strange creatures and beat him up more than a week ago. , you must drink this cup.

Okay, first cup, refreshing!

He swallowed it like medicine, not afraid, it was just a trivial matter, and the guests could still smile at each other with pursed lips.

Eleanor Glow, a senior member of the royal family who poured resources into gold plating. In addition, she was also related to many extremely important figures, and... in short, she was also a well-known figure, so she had to drink this cup.

Okay, second cup, challenge yourself!

He pinched his nose and drank it down without fear. It had happened before. The guests pretended to wipe their mouths and took a few deep breaths of cold air to survive.

Ji Ming, a saint chosen by God from outside civilization, a well-known miracle doctor for the poor, an expert in strange techniques and tactics, was once used as a vessel for divine descent by the Holy Light God, and personally killed an evil god incarnate...

Damn it, there’s really nothing to think about! This person is the same as the previous two, and they both wear the pants of the Holy Light Church. If you don’t drink this cup, the first two cups will be in vain. Today, the dignity of the big shot must be given!
Okay, third cup, me!
QWQ.

"Slow down, wait, wait a minute..."
