Miss Wang Weina, my cousin can't do it either!

Victoria, Londinium, Londinium core city, 7:00p.m.

With high-rise buildings covering the sky and dazzling neon tubes, this city seems to be in a completely different era from the classical and elegant clock tower city of Londinium in the outside world - there are many clock towers and nobles In the middle ages of enfeoffment, here is a modern society where capital is in power and money is paramount.

In fact, the core city of Londinium and Londinium can indeed be regarded as two completely different regional concepts.On the land of Terra, the development level of each country is very different. There are backward natives like Sargon who have just stepped out of the era of tribal kings and entered the feudal era, and they are already on the road of capitalism like Colombia. Merchants federation for emerging technology research.And Victoria is somewhere in between.

This is the most prosperous country on the land of Terra, but its order is just based on the oldest system, such as kingship, coronation, and nobility. A series of old things are integrated with new concepts such as consortia, capital, and finance. After the ball, the nobles will also go online to pay attention to the rise and fall of today's stocks, and the businessmen will try their best to find a territory to join the ranks of the nobles after making money.And the focus of all these conflicts and blends of old and new things is in Londinium, the royal capital of Victoria.

The name of the core city is [Lentinium Core City]. The reason why it has this name is not because it is the core component of the entire mobile city: Lentinium, but her special status in politics——Lentinium The core city of Nimes is self-governing. It is not under the jurisdiction of the city hall and the grand consul Arthur of Londinium. It is controlled by the Chamber of Commerce specially entrusted by the royal family. The complicated noble laws of Londinium are useless here. For the big merchants living in this core city, all they have to abide by is the emperor's order and the core city autonomy law promulgated by the Chamber of Commerce.This is a land of wealth. The stock trading hall in the core city fully controls 80.00% of the financial transactions in Terra, and the remaining 20.00% is exclusively owned by Columbia, and [-]% is shared by the world.This is also a land of dreams. If you throw yourself into the embrace of the core city, you may get ahead in just one day and one night. There are constantly desperate gamblers who have lost their life savings and invested in stocks on the exchange. Tomorrow, you can fall asleep in the sea of ​​gold coins and banknotes, or cosplay Li Boli jumping from the sky on the "Life Rebirth Rooftop" of the exchange.

It can be said that if you want to travel, then go to Londinium, if you want to make a fortune, then come to the core city, if you want to really see the greatness of Victoria, then go to both places , and then you will find, shocked, and then awed, how wise and wise such a country and king are that can integrate the two forces that should have been fighting against each other like a family.

Such a city full of capitalism certainly has its own dark side, but these are not the theme of today.

Wayne Bruce, Prince of Wales, came to the core city today to do only three things—cooking, cooking, or tmd cooking!

But now let him find a place to vomit for a while.

Getting off Chen's lightning-fast motorcycle, Wayne had a hallucination that his back was sore and his legs were weak, but he soon discovered that this was not an illusion.

Keeping one posture for a long time, I passed the dirt road in the western suburbs, the brick and stone in the urban area, and then the asphalt road in the core city. I experienced more than a dozen drifts and corners, more than [-] emergency brakes at traffic lights, and a very long time. With the strong wind blowing, Wei En's face is now completely red, and he doesn't know whether it was caused by the wind or because he bumped into Chen's back when he braked.

After moving his limbs, Wei En wobbled and held on to the lamppost beside him, resisting the turbulence in his stomach, and looked at the instigator of everything—Chen, who was taking off his helmet with ease, and smiled happily at him .

"Student Bruce is quite strong, I can now confirm that your body is indeed fine!"

Chen rubbed his waist, and there was a clear circle of indentations on the jacket and the white shirt underneath. Wei En even felt that Chen sir probably also had a red mark on Chen sir's waist.

But what can he do?

The movements of lsp are very gentle, and being able to suppress this situation is clearly a survival instinct, a survival instinct!

He didn't want to have a meal, and let Wei Na see the bombing news about the tragic death of the Prince of Wales on the road in the morning newspaper tomorrow morning.

Glaring at Chen resentfully, Chen scratched his head, and simply took care of the messy forehead hair blown by the wind, stepped forward and patted Wei En on the shoulder, and the strong woman said with a bit of praise in her voice:

"Don't look at me with that kind of eyes, I apologize, I was too busy looking at myself, I didn't notice that you are a bit imaginary, but you are boring, compared to Shi Huaiya and the others, your endurance is so strong, You know, besides Aunt Wenyue, there is no one else who can make me happy all the way to the end!"

As she said that, she lied too much, glanced contemptuously at Shi Huaiya, who noticed the two people and was walking towards them, smiled softly, and whispered in Wen En's ear,

"It's not like someone who, within a few minutes, started crying and apologizing, saying that Chen doesn't want it, Ah Chen doesn't want it, slow down, slow down!"

But Filin's ears are very good!When Shi Huaiya heard these words, she looked like a cat whose tail had been stepped on and suddenly exploded. She dashed in front of Chen, took out a stack of Longmen coins from her bag, and stuck them in Chen's mouth. superior.While holding down Chen, he turned his head and nodded shyly at Wayne:

"Ah, Bruce, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, my family's laws are not strict, and I made you laugh at this sausage dragon!"

Chen: "Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Shi Huaiya glared at her viciously, put down the Longmen coins in her hand, and put her backhand in Wei En's hand.

"Here, Bruce, I'll use this little money to find a doctor later. As a friend, Ah Chen doesn't matter. I, the eldest sister, still have to come and wipe her ass!"

"Who are you, Char Siew Cat? Am I not telling the truth?"

Chen Hui glared at Shi Huaiya, but he didn't say anything about Shi Huaiya's move to give Wei En money to find a doctor. It seemed that he himself realized that something was wrong.

Wayne hesitated for a moment, glanced at the Longmen coins that had just been covered by Chen's mouth, then glanced at Shi Huaiya, and finally nodded with emotion:

"Thank you Miss."

It's not for Chen's sake or for money, the main reason is that he really suffered internal injuries and needs to make up for it.

Come to a beautiful picture.jpg

Chapter 45 Leave it to me

The core city, "Sargon's Great Barbecue".

This newly opened barbecue restaurant is quite famous among the merchants. It is said that the camel meat selected is delicious, and it is all transported from Sargon to Victoria by air, and then processed by top knife masters. , and finally cooked by the local barbecue master in Sargon, it tastes charred on the outside and tender on the inside, very delicious.In addition, the price of the restaurant is relatively affordable in the core city, and most of the rich and powerful will come to experience it.

This is the second time for Shi Huaiya to come to this barbecue restaurant. The last time she came was a social party where she went to a banquet alone. For the sake of etiquette and image, she was the tallest person on the scene at that time. The barbecue on the white tablecloth that everyone can enjoy can only be daunting. This time I chose this place as the place for the classmate reunion to make up for this shortcoming.

"This place looks very good, Miss Shi Huaiya has really good taste."

Wayne praised from the bottom of his heart.

Sometimes, he is really envious of these merchant children. As a member of the royal family, he must always pay attention to his image, and he is destined not to be too extravagant and wasteful in some places, even if his predecessor has a rich man who spends money like water. image, but he is not his predecessor after all, for Wei Na's sake, he can't just throw a big feast with great fanfare.

What's more, in addition to money issues, royal banquets generally have strong political implications, especially his identity is too sensitive-a prince who should have been emperor but unexpectedly abdicated (the outside world does not know that the coronation ceremony Even if Wei Na didn’t think too much about it, it was inevitable that someone with a heart would over-interpret it, which was not a good thing for him.

While enjoying the convenience brought by power, she will inevitably lose some happiness as an ordinary person. Shi Huaiya can take advantage of a small opportunity to hold a grand class reunion, and Wayne is destined to only be the one who goes to the banquet.

Faced with Wayne's sincere praise, Shi Huaiya did not reply, but her slightly upturned mouth and raised chin, together with the two pairs of fluffy ears shaking lightly on the golden-orange hair, betrayed her inner mood at the moment.

Shi Huaiya is very happy!

In the four years of college life, she has held many banquets, large and small, but this was the only gathering that Wayne came to attend, and it was also the only gathering that "nobles" joined.

Shi Huaiya didn't like the nobles in the past, because they were arrogant and stubborn, and they only appreciated businessmen but had no respect. The nobleman's impression changed slightly, or in other words, his impression of Wayne inevitably improved.

After all, the Internet is the Internet, and everything that is said and done is false, and Wei En called her two words of "Miss", which can be used as a joke among classmates, but here, Wei En's praise and address from the heart made her very happy. jump for joy.

This is a nobleman who is not proud, arrogant, and self-important, and is very easy to get along with. Moreover, he is his classmate!

Although this is the first meeting between the two, it doesn't hinder it. There are still a few months before the end of college life, and Shi Huaiya is fully confident that she can become friends with Wayne during this time.

The second floor of the restaurant has been reserved by Shi Huaiya. The classmates are scattered around different tables, forming a small group in twos and threes. They do not communicate with each other. Only when they see Shi Huaiya go upstairs, Then he raised his head and said hello cordially.

The competition at the Royal Guards Academy is fierce, and they are friends with Shi Huaiya, not all their classmates.

Many people noticed the blond figure walking side by side with the rich lady beside Shi Huaiya, and they couldn't help but look more at Bruce, who had been marked as [Noble Young Master] in the group, as if they wanted to compare Let's see what is the difference between the so-called nobles and them.And as Wayne's gaze shifted, they all lowered their heads subconsciously, as if avoiding the gaze of the lion.

After greeting them all, Shi Huaiya led Wei En and Chen into the box at the end of the second floor. The table was already filled with well-grilled meat, and the fat was emerging from the texture of the steak. , made a sizzling sound that made the index finger move, and emitted billowing hot air visible to the naked eye under the light.

As the host, Shi Huaiya was seated first, Chen hesitated, and chose to sit directly opposite Shi Huaiya, with a subtle expression on his face, as if he had something to say, but he was hesitant to say it now.Wayne was finally seated and chose to sit next to Chen.

"I'm treating you tonight, eat whatever you want."

The little tiger announced sincerely, but he didn't feel rude like a nouveau riche, on the contrary, he was a little naive.She picked up a fork and a knife, gently cut off a piece of camel meat steak, put it in her mouth, and chewed with a happy expression on her face——finally realized a wish.

Then, she put down the knife, glanced at Wayne who was wrestling with a piece of crab meat, smiled with satisfaction, and looked at Chen Shi with a hint of doubt.

"Ah Chen, what happened?"

As Victoria, she said she was the second and no one dared to be the first. Although she didn't admit it, she was indeed Chen Huijie's single-handed Shi Huaiya. She could see the hesitation in the eyes of her best friend at a glance.

Chen is a person who doesn't like to speak out what is in her heart. If no one asks her, she will keep the matter in her heart until she solves it alone or can't bear the collapse. Knowing this clearly, Shi Huaiya chose to directly Open your mouth and ask.

Chen Wenyan's shoulders shook slightly, and he paused for a moment, then put down the knife and fork in his hand that didn't cut the steak at all, raised his head to look at Shi Huaiya, and said solemnly:

"Shi Huaiya..."

"I'll call an ambulance for you!"

Shi Huaiya's complexion changed, and the name tag in a hurry took out the little tiger mobile phone in the satchel, and said seriously.

Chen's expression froze: "What?"

"Chen Huijie would call my name so seriously when it was not a roll call. He must be sick."

The two were silent for two seconds, and then both smiled.

".....puff!"

Chen wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth, smiled and looked at Shi Huaiya:

"Okay, okay, thank you, Char Siew Cat, it's much easier now. Then I'll continue..."

She paused and announced:

"Char Siu Mao, I don't want to stay in Victoria after graduation. I have already submitted an internship application to Wei Yanwu. After graduation, I will return to Longmen and become a trainee police officer in the Longmen Guard Bureau."

After finishing speaking, she looked expectantly at Shi Huaiya and asked:

"What about you?"

Shi Huaiya was taken aback for a moment, and cast a glance at Wayne involuntarily.

she?

In the past, she probably agreed to Chen's invitation right away.Because at that time, she had no achievements in Victoria. Although she made many friends, she did not set foot in Victoria's most important aristocratic circle after all. It would be a waste of youth to stay here.

But it's different now. By chance, she became friends with a young nobleman, and Wayne's noble status is definitely not low. The time of the religious reform ceremony that has leaked any news, although they have known each other for a short time, this is undoubtedly a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. With the help of Wayne, she can help her grandfather and her family, maybe Can I still help... myself?

This may be an opportunity for the SWIRE family to be promoted from an ordinary family of big businessmen to a noble family in Victoria. No matter how careless Shi Huaiya is, as a lady of the family and loved by her grandfather, she has to face this opportunity. produce hesitation.

Promise Chen, and go back to Longmen with her, the chances of seeing Wayne in the future will be few and far between, and the friendship that has no time to cultivate will become weak, and this opportunity will undoubtedly be lost from her fingertips.

But she refused to agree to Chen and chose to stay in Victoria. Shi Huaiya couldn't bear to watch her best friend go back to Longmen alone to endure the pressure of those intrigues. As the daughter of the Swire family, although she looked innocent, But in fact, he knows better than anyone what is hiding behind Wei Yanwu, and what kind of situation and pressure Longmen is facing.You know, according to the information from grandpa's eyeliner, those inspectors in red robes have been inspecting Longmen more and more frequently in recent years.

Hesitating, Shi Huaiya frowned and lowered her head.

Chen seemed to have sensed the hesitation in his friend's heart, pursed his lips, and showed a smile:

"Ah, it's nothing. I talked about some unhappy topics. Let's talk about things after graduation. The religious reform came so suddenly. Maybe the professor will add questions to the graduation exam. If you fail the course You won’t be able to graduate.”

"Ah Chen, I..."

Before Shi Huaiya finished speaking, Wayne wiped his mouth and took over the conversation aloud.

"Youdao is a confidant in the sea, and the world is like a neighbor (this sentence is said by Wen En in Yan Mandarin), we are classmates. Compared with ancient times, there are more than letters in modern times. Mobile phones, computers, videos , phone, so many ways to contact, and it’s not life and death, why is it so sad?"

Wayne shrugged his shoulders, knowing that now is the time for him to show off his ability to impress the two ladies.

He scratched his head, showing a shy and harmless smile:

"If we really want each other, we can also go to Longmen to meet Ah Chen in a flying machine. I also have a small flying machine."

Both Shi Huaiya and Chen showed a hint of surprise on their faces, and Wayne nodded in satisfaction, but unexpectedly, Shi Huaiya's brows frowned again.

"Well, I actually have an aircraft, but I don't have a flight permit. It's the key to stop, resupply, and take off at the airport in Victoria. But only the nobles can get that... and ...."

Moreover, it is not available to ordinary nobles.

Shi Huaiya didn't say this, but just looked at Wayne.

The acquaintance of friends needs an opportunity, just like Chen and Shi Huaiya met through the introduction between two elders, but they became friends after a morning tea, Shi Huaiya helped Chen who forgot to bring money to settle the bill.In a pure friendship, it can't stand the bottomless prostitution. Giving each other and helping each other is the proof of friendship.

If Wayne can help her, or if Wayne can say "I will help you get the flight permit" today, regardless of whether he can get the flight permit in the end, this friend, Shi Huai Ya and Chen are both committed.

And if Wayne can really get a flight permit, then Shi Huaiya will also have a general understanding of Wayne's real title.

Things like flying permits need to be approved by the royal family. Those who can submit the application to the royal family and get the attention of the royal family must at least be an earl. The rank of honorary knight and baron is not qualified at all.

Shi Huaiya looked at Wayne with deep expectation in her eyes.

Wayne was stunned for a few seconds.

Permission to fly?Victoria still has this thing?Do you need nobles to get it?I do not know how?

Oh, I'm the royal family, that's fine.

Wayne smiled easily and nodded: "The flight permit, right? Don't worry, it will be sent to the eldest lady tomorrow!"

Unexpectedly, Wayne agreed so quickly and without hesitation, both Shi Huaiya and Chen were taken aback, looked at each other, and smiled happily.

They made new friends.

Shi Huaiya waved her hands with a smile, and said:

"No need to bother Bruce, but it's very troublesome to apply for this thing, and you have to submit an application to the royal family. You have just inherited the title. It's not convenient, so I won't bother you. I will discuss it with grandpa and spend some money. Entrusted a noble to help."

Shi Huaiya took the initiative to speak, but Wei En shook his head resolutely.

Is it troublesome to submit an application to the royal family?It may be true for others, after all, neither Wen En nor Wei Na likes to read those densely packed documents, but for Wen En himself, isn't this easy to grasp?As long as Shi Huaiya gave him the application form, he would sign it on the spot, put his fingerprint on it, and take it to the airport, who would dare to refute it?

If you just inherited the title, will you leave a bad impression on the royal family?Sorry, my title is the Prince of Wales, and the Queen is my sister. I helped my classmate get a flight permit in front of my sister. Can I leave a bad impression on myself in front of Wei Na?can't you?

So he waved his hand and patted his chest: "Stop talking, leave this matter to me."

Picking up the wine glass and pouring himself a glass of red wine, Wayne raised the glass, stood up and clinked glasses with Shi Huaiya and Chen:

"cheers!"

Chapter 46 Brother, why are you here!

Londinium Core City, Elizabeth Hotel, special room on the 15th floor.

The owner of this hotel was once the number one general under the account of Queen Victoria Elizabeth. The offshoot of the royal family, who was also part of the Aslan family, was lost in the remote Gaul region for a long time due to domestic turmoil until Queen Elizabeth was crowned and Victoria was re-stabilized. , Only then finally restored the identity of the nobility and returned to Victoria.

There is also a romantic story in it. It is said that in order to pacify the Gaul states that wanted to establish an independent country amidst the turmoil in Victoria, Queen Elizabeth once traveled to Gaul with a diplomatic mission and army.

The rebel army in Gaul was retreating in front of Victoria's trump card, so they sent assassins to carry out a sinister assassination operation. In a ceremony to recover the mobile city, the assassins hidden in the crowd pointed their guns at The queen, who didn't know it, happened to be the man standing in the crowd who noticed the assassin's move at the critical moment, and helped the queen block the bullet and caught the assassin.
