Alien landlady

Chapter 173
On the side of the Fubao Town Guild, after several weeks of hard work, Bai Tongtong finally regained control of the old rhythm of the daily work of the guild and the territory, and finally freed up his hands to deal with some things that had been backlogged before.

Ah Huang went to the town of Wismar and brought the finished post-it notes made by the women. Each copy was wrapped in wrapping paper with the little white cat logo printed on it. It looked like a regular product. Bai Tongtong left a few boxes , and the rest were sent to Seiya’s house in Fort Zammington. After that, she put a tray on the reception desk, put the sticky notes on it, and placed a price tag. One big and one small exactly sold for one silver coin. The magicians who come and go will always put down a little change and take a few books.

The guild's workshop has also been completed, and a very useful furnace has been installed in Sanaa. The kiln specially used for sintering graphite molds has been proved to be very useful after testing. With the molds, many things can be solved.

As for the rebuilding plan of Salter Village, which was planned by people from the Construction Guild of Soller City earlier, the contractor finally sent the overall planning and design drawings, all drawn by hand, on the land of the existing village according to the town's construction standards , there are baron manors, parks, commercial streets, and villager residential areas, and the land for building new houses has been reserved for future generations, instead of directly using the current idle land in the village.

Bai Tongtong likes this design very much, and doesn't mind at all that the area of ​​the Baron Manor's courtyard has shrunk a bit. In her opinion, a smaller courtyard can save a few gardeners, and there are not so many bugs.

Bai Tongtong accepted the drawings and asked the contractor to continue designing the house drawings. If construction could not start this year, she would not mind postponing it until next year.

The contractor had enough time, so he stopped worrying and went back to polish the drawings slowly.

Bai Tongtong was thinking about whether the money in her pocket would be enough to cover the cost of the overall reconstruction of the entire village, because underground drainage pipes were more expensive than ground construction, and she didn't want to have waterlogging during the rainy season.

At this time, the captain who distributed Giles souvenirs for her came with the money he earned, so many first-class products were sold at a very good price, Bai Tongtong paid the commission to the captain in full, and left his contact She thought that after the domestic situation in the two countries of Giles and Biddle stabilized again, she would have ready-made people to run errands and sell goods for her.

Of course, she knows what the new impression of her is from the upper echelon of the country. Magicians are all gossip transfer stations. Miss Yijin is the new name for her recently. It's a very interesting nickname. Bai Tongtong doesn't mind at all. It seems that she is suspected of being simple-minded, but she believes that no one will really think so.

The political circle of the capital should have been busy with the special envoy, but the palace sent a courier to Bai Tongtong to send an invitation letter to the palace dinner the day after tomorrow. The parties must be present and dress up.

Bai Tongtong felt a headache when she saw the word "dress up". Fortunately, there were still many dresses she prepared last time that she hadn't worn, but she still took half a day to go to Wangdu's jewelry store to look at the new summer jewelry.

After completing these tasks, Bai Tongtong spent the rest of her time beside the kiln, hurrying up to burn the molds she needed, trying to make resin sheets that had been calculated and opened, and assembling them into data boxes and data racks. It restored her desk to a little tidiness, so that all kinds of files can be put away in different categories, so that they will not be lost when needed, or the files with the highest priority will be forgotten and cause delays in work.

In addition, I also made a small amount of resin pen tubes, put them into the pen accessories processed by Ba Fei, put them in a box and put them on the reception desk, and there is a free trial sign next to them for anyone to take and collect. Feedback.

After taking the time to complete these tasks, it was time for her to dress up and go to the royal capital to attend the palace dinner.

Bai Tongtong is not at all curious about the special envoys of the two countries coming over, what they discussed with His Majesty, what was exchanged, and he never asked Farrell in the routine correspondence with Farrell every night, just like Farrell knew about her. , she really doesn't have the energy to care about those, her own work takes up most of her time throughout the day.

As one of the protagonists of the farewell banquet tonight, Bai Tongtong's seat was next to His Majesty Ascombe IV's, the two special envoys were next to the queen, and the other guests were seated in order according to their status.

After a dinner party, you know everything you need to know.

Dwell I of Biddle, sent the letter of credence brought by the special envoy, hoping to renew the alliance with Gulis, restore the close relationship with Gulis during the Akley Dynasty, and welcome the miners of Gulis to mine in their Devil City Magic Magneto Mine, as long as His Majesty Ascombe IV stops supporting the former Queen Daly who has nothing, and end the last tail of the coup as soon as possible.

The United Kingdom of Giles is even more troubled. Because of Bai Tongtong's actions, the national separatists that have always existed are about to move again. Because of the existence of this group of people, the foundation of the country that is similar to the federal nature is shaken from time to time.The division of the country is not only a disaster, but more importantly, it will lose control of pirates, which is very bad news for other ocean-going merchant ships.

Therefore, what the special envoy of the country of Giles is begging is to help quell the impending turmoil in the country, so that their king can regain power in the country, and only on this basis can they be able to pay the indemnity.

In order to pay compensation, the United Kingdom of Giles cannot be split. Bai Tongtong has to make this trip to restore everything to normal order as quickly as possible.

Bai Tongtong raised her wine glass high, thanked His Majesty for trusting her, and gladly accepted this private task.

After the dinner, the guests returned to the lounge to rest. Biddle's special envoy found her, dragged her into a corner to whisper, and asked her to lift the ban on the treasury in the palace. Daly was powerless to overthrow the new dynasty, and no one supported her at all. It's worth wasting time on her, and managing the country costs money all the time. I have been insisting on using private treasury for this period of time, and now I can't drag it any longer.

Bai Tongtong patted the envoy's shoulder vigorously in an unladylike manner, without saying a word, just smiled mysteriously, whistled, called Ah Huang out from under other people's chairs, and left the palace together.

The task His Majesty gave her is not of the nature of giving orders publicly at the imperial meeting. This has to be done quietly, to show her strength there, and not to make ordinary people feel panic, otherwise the maintenance of stability at the national level will be involved again. To many people's energy, consume unnecessary time.

As for the return of Biddle's treasury money, it depends on whether His Majesty Dwyer I has secured his throne.

After returning to her own territory, Bai Tongtong had a good night's rest. In the early morning, she arranged the day's work with the two housekeepers. She changed into a mercenary uniform and arrived at Biddle from the teleportation formation through the king's capital.

There is a time difference of about half a day, and it is night here.

It was a little unexpected that Harding was waiting for her in the guild early, accompanied by Gulisi's elite soldiers who were responsible for guarding the guild, and it was the master's team who disguised themselves as mercenaries and protected Daly along the way. .

Harding came over to collect information after the dinner. It found Daly's whereabouts tonight, and was responsible for sending Bai Tongtong to Giles to quell the civil strife there.

Bai Tongtong decided to go to Giles first to finish her business.

Malabu, the capital of the United Kingdom of Giles, is at the entrance from the plain to the mountains. The snow-capped mountains melt into rivers, which go down from the upstream, pass through the city, and enter the sea downstream. The entire city is built according to the terrain, and the palace is located at the highest point.

Harding gently placed Bai Tongtong and Ah Huang on the roof of the palace, under the cover of the dim light in the evening, no one noticed her.

Looking down from a high place, the scenery is very beautiful, thousands of lights are scattered all over the place, and the sun is only a line on the horizon, reflecting the outline of the distant mountains.

Touching Harding's head, knowing that it was a backup plan, and not wanting to use it as a forward, Bai Tongtong asked Ah Huang to go down first to find the king's trace.

Ah Huang left for a few minutes and found him in the king's study, discussing the current domestic situation with his cronies, and what kind of thunderous blow to those guys who were about to move, let them know the fate of splitting the country.

It quickly brought Bai Tongtong down, and when she directly entered the room through the wall, it startled the men inside, but before they pulled out their sidearms, Ah Huang showed its power a little , mobilized magic to seal all the doors and windows, ensuring that no light or sound could be transmitted outside.

Bai Tongtong raised his hand and soaked the others in the huge water polo, leaving his head outside to keep breathing. His Majesty the King sitting behind the big table was unscathed, just a little frightened.

"Good evening, Your Majesty, Tongtong, Baron of Salter from Gullis, pays you the highest respect. I believe you have heard of my name." Bai Tongtong bowed slightly, just a very simple Everyday etiquette.

Ah Huang jumped onto the big desk, glaring at the dark-skinned His Majesty the King in his early forties, and at the same time cast the honesty technique to prevent the king from playing tricks.

"Hello, Ms. Bai, your name is well known in our country these days. I am very glad that you came here so soon. Thank you very much." The king suppressed the uneasiness in his heart, and returned the courtesy calmly.

"You're welcome. In the exchanges between countries, the sound that can be heard most by the other party is either the jingle of the purse or the charge of the army. No matter which one I choose, I will reach the designated place as quickly as possible. "Bai Tongtong propped his hands on the edge of the table, lowered his waist slightly, and kept his eyes on the king all the time.

Harding on the roof listened verbatim, tilting his head amusedly.

"Oh, is this a famous quote from Gulis? It is a warning to the world."

"Yes, we like summing up wise words best. Then, Your Majesty, what can I do for you? I think you know how busy I am every day."

"Of course, we are all ready. It is a great surprise for His Majesty Askem IV to send you here." His Majesty the King opened the drawer and took out a list with detailed addresses on it. "These are all guys who affect the stability of the country , Only by getting rid of them and keeping the integrity of the country, can we have the money to pay compensation to Gulisi, I am really sorry about the pirates, and we sincerely ask for the forgiveness of all the citizens of Gulisi."

Bai Tongtong just accepted the list, smiled at His Majesty, snapped his fingers, and released all the magic states, and Ah Huang led her swaggeringly through the wall and left.

The confidants, who were all wet, gathered around the table in shock and asked their Majesty's opinion on what to do next.

It's just that His Majesty the King of Giles was staring blankly at the wall where Bai Tongtong had left, and didn't listen to anyone's words at all.

Back on the roof, Bai Tongtong found a corner sheltered from the wind, and studied the list first. The many maps she bought last time came in handy. Through cross-comparison, circled the specific location, and wrote down the names one by one on the on the map.

With Harding around, Ah Huang didn't have to work hard. With a breeze, he cast the wind travel technique and arrived at the first location in an instant.

Still falling on the roof, Ah Huang went down to hunt for treasure first, swept away the gold, silver and other valuables, and checked whether the target he was looking for was in the house, and naturally heard some remarks that could be used as evidence.

When it returned to the top, it was Harding's shot again, smashing the window with the wind directly, and dragging the target object who was holding the banquet away from the crowd amidst screams.

Putting aside the chaotic scene he caused, Bai Tongtong rushed to the next location.

The task tonight was heavy, and the separatists were scattered all over the country. Fortunately, with Harding, they all finished it in the middle of the night. The strength gap between the adult Shunlang and the underage Wuying Mao was obvious.

With a group of captives, they rushed back to the palace at a high wind speed. Bai Tongtong rushed straight into the king's bedroom and threw the captives in front of his bed. They had already fainted limply during the continuous magic flight, and they were thrown on the ground motionless.

"Your Majesty, my mission is complete, and I will leave the rest to you. I hope you can keep your promise." Ignoring the soldiers rushing in with weapons, Bai Tongtong remained calm in the chaotic scene, as if she was The owner of this room, His Majesty the king who was sitting on the big bed with his upper body naked, was an unlucky guy who slept in the wrong bed.

"I am very grateful to the baroness for her great help. The United Kingdom of Giles will always be Gullis' loyal ally."

"Thank you, I can go back and report back. Good night, Your Majesty, I wish you a sweet dream." Bai Tongtong nodded slightly, turned around and left neatly, showing no embarrassment at all about forcibly breaking into the king's bedroom.

The soldiers quickly took the captives to the dungeon, and the servants came in with wine to scare the king. Tonight was really terrible.

"When will our envoy be back?"

"According to the scheduled itinerary, I will return to Biddle via the teleportation array within one or two days, and I will be able to return to China in a few days, Your Majesty."

"When they come back, remember to remind me to ask them if they know if the baroness is single." The poor king, who was frightened twice in one night, gulped down his glass of wine angrily, put down the glass, lifted the blanket and turned over to lie down.

"Yes, Your Majesty. But why?"

"Didn't the ministers keep asking me to marry again? We need a fearless queen."

"Yes, Your Majesty!"
