Heroes of Might and Magic: Knight Chapter 158: Breakfast and the sense of dissonance
“Dong dong dong…”
"Please come in"
"Sir Richard, please have breakfast."
"Well, put it on the table."
"Yes, please feel free to use it."
The waiter placed a plate of sumptuous breakfast on Richard's table, and then left the room respectfully.
This store is Yusidu’s stronghold in the capital,
Although it is an intelligence den, business is pretty good.
The meals in the store have a strong sense of Chinese cuisine, and these delicious and fresh dishes are quite popular among people in the capital,
After all, Richard in his previous life was a person who loved to enjoy life, and he would never treat himself badly when it came to his appetite.
If you want him to develop gunpowder, guns, cannons, and develop steam engines and internal combustion engines, he doesn’t have the ability.
But he has quite a lot of experience in cooking some of China’s famous dishes.
Yusi Du managed to turn the stronghold in the royal capital into a restaurant with a good business by relying on some cooking techniques taught by Richard during his free time.
Now they are planning to open a branch. Richard is now afraid that these intelligence officers will make money by opening hotels, so they will quit intelligence and open a store with the knowledge of getting rich.
Fortunately, when Yusi was selecting people, the core members were all from the Hunter family territory, with clean financial status, family members and relationships within Richard's sphere of influence, and their loyalty could be guaranteed.
After Richard arrived in the royal capital, he checked into his hotel,
First, the quality is guaranteed, thanks to some guidance from him.
Secondly, he deserves his trust in terms of security.
After getting no more information from the mayor of Rich Town that night, Richard did not make things difficult for him anymore,
After packing up, he took the remaining troops and left. After all, he was attacked and people died.
Everyone's mood was not so relaxed at first, and their vigilance was heightened to the extreme.
To be honest, Richard was originally a cautious person, and the troops he brought were also experienced and elite, but after arriving in the hinterland of the kingdom, he relaxed a little more vigilance, and came to the capital with a travel mentality.
After all, no one expected to encounter a sudden attack on the central plains.
Hurrying along the way, we finally arrived at Jinlongdu a few days later, and then went directly to our hotel to rest for the night.
On the dinner plate are bowls of porridge, several pastries, and several large meat pies,
Richard drank some white porridge and slowly took a few bites of meat pie,
The meatloaf is very filling and tastes fresh, which is suitable for a warrior like Richard to replenish his energy.
Then he picked up the light tea next to him and took a sip to moisten his throat.
Looking out of the third-story window, the streets are bustling with people,
Although it has just dawned, the flow of people on the road is already quite large, the vendors have begun to set up their stalls, and almost all the breakfast shops on the street are full of people.
As the most densely populated place in the world,
It’s not surprising that Jinlong has such a flow of people,
But looking at the scene outside the window now, Richard felt a strong sense of violation,
I didn’t notice much when I entered the city at night, but now it seems that the style of this city is simply weird.
There are many houses with Chinese-style cornices around the typical Gothic buildings, and everyone seems not to be surprised by this,
This is different from Ironwood City. Ironwood City has heavy oriental elements. That is because of the subtle influence of its ruler Richard.
But in the royal capital, he, Richard, has little influence, so why is there such a strange sense of time and space confusion.
Something is wrong, there is a problem, there is a big problem, but Richard has no clue now,
From being attacked to entering Golden Dragon City, Richard's mind is now like mush. Even though he prides himself on being smart, he can't find the answer when there is no information.
"Go and find Imo."
"Yes, sir."
Imo is the person in charge of Yusidu here,
Approximately in his thirties, he was originally a manager in Ironwood City. Because of his good work and all-around good nature, he was attracted by Yu Sidu,
Imo was originally born and raised in the Hunter territory. Two generations have worked for the Hunter family. The family’s teenage son also attends Ironwood City Official School. He is definitely the kind of person who is trustworthy.
In a few years, Yimo took on a big responsibility in Yusidu and became the person in charge of Yusidu in Golden Dragon City.
"Lord Richard."
After Imo came up, he saluted to Richard naturally. Richard was not prepared to say anything. For a man in his thirties who has a family and a son, it doesn’t make much sense for you to give him a few mouthfuls of chicken soup.
They know everything they need to know, and they know exactly where they are and where they sit.
Richard asked directly:
"How much does Yusi know about the Rising Sun Cult?"
"This, there is no information about the Rising Sun Cult yet."
"We are now focusing on the information about the Rising Sun Cult. I will send you a letter from Ironwood City as well."
"Yes, sir."
"In addition, collect some historical information about the period when Golden Dragon City was established."
"…, yes, my lord."
Imo hesitated for a moment but then agreed.
After Richard finished his instructions, he exited the room.
Li Cha currently has no better information channels, so he can only instruct Yusidu to strengthen the collection of information related to the Rising Sun Cult, and then pay more attention to the history of Golden Dragon City when it was first built,
Yusidu’s previous work on this area was completely blank,
But this is no wonder Yusidu, in the past the focus of Yusidu has always been on the Northland,
The farthest point is that it penetrates into the adjacent river valley. The further away, the raindrops can't reach it.
Secondly, the Hunter family was only a powerful local force at the time, and being able to pay attention to the North Dija River Valley was considered a long-term vision.
Even the stronghold of Golden Dragon City was only established after the ogres moved eastward, and it has not yet played any role.
Although the Northland is a bitter and cold place, the Lanster family has always been suppressing it. Although the small lords of each family are poor, they are actually very powerful in their own territory.
It has never been the focus of the development of the Rising Sun Religion. It is normal that Yusidu has not paid attention to the information of the Rising Sun Religion before.
But now that the Rising Sun Cult has directly attacked Richard, even if the relationship is closed, the Rising Sun Cult has also been included in Yusidu’s list of key concerns.
Imo, who had just left at this time, was a little troubled,
If there are still traces of the Rising Sun Cult, but if Yusidu has to investigate the historical truth of these hundreds of years ago and collect relevant information, it really gives the person in charge of Yusidu in the capital a headache. ,
It is not difficult to collect information that is true or false from hundreds of years ago, but it is very troublesome to identify the authenticity, and you cannot arrest and torture people from hundreds of years ago
Nima, how can this spy be used as a historian?
But under Richard's instructions, he had to do this regardless of his guts,
If that doesn't work, you may have to find a historian in the capital.
…
"Sir Richard, Mr. Harris, please go there."
As soon as Richard had breakfast, someone came to invite him,
It is said that Richard, as an upstart who is about to be promoted to Marquis,
Some people in the royal capital's aristocratic circle would try to make friends, and it was normal for someone to invite them.
But this inviter is not from the aristocratic circle of the royal capital. Instead, he is a person who is hated by everyone in the royal capital.
The royal hyena, Harris...
