Since the Iron Prison incident ended, Adele, who returned to the Star of Paradise with Allen, did not know the news of Horn. At this moment, I heard that he was overjoyed and said: "Mr. Horn is still alive?"
"Well, not only is the old man alive, he also created another legend. It's a pity that he is not here, otherwise you can meet him."
Talking all the way, the off-road vehicle drove into a small town. The town seems to have just been built, and civil-timbered houses can be seen everywhere, especially shops of various kinds. Looking at a long street, the various shops are dazzling. Leon said, "This town was built by our family. As you can see, there are all kinds of shops here. It is very convenient to do business. The message you gave me before did not say that there are some paradise star supplies to be shipped. Come back to sell, I think you can eat your batch here."
Adele said: "A lot of materials were brought back this time, mostly mineral materials. Since this town belongs to your William's family, of course there is no problem."
"You won't lose the bag." Leon stopped in front of a tavern, opened the car door, and Adele jumped down. Leon said: "Come in first and have something to eat. Let's talk while eating."
Adele raised her head, and the tavern shop recruited a goat pattern. She asked: "This is also owned by your family?"
"Of course not." Leon said with a smile: "We are not so stingy. This tavern was opened to sisters and brothers. Parents were killed in the war, and some savings, so they opened a tavern in the town. They brewed The wine is not bad, and the younger brother cooks good dishes. As for the sister, hey, I can only say that it is beautiful and delicious."
Adele seemed to see someone showing a wolf tail.
Leon looked rightly and honestly: "Why look at me like this, is it wrong to like good women? Besides, if I weren't a frequent visitor to this tavern, you think a pair of brothers and sisters who have no power and power can live here. Got it? Okay, Adele, we all get what we need."
"I thought you would find a woman to get married." Adele said as he walked into the tavern with Leon. Since it is afternoon, the pub has not officially opened yet. The shop was dimly lit, two men at the bar were drinking, and a drunk man was lying on the table by the window. There were no other guests.
Seeing them coming in, the two men at the bar looked over and saw that Leon nodded. Leon said to Adele: "What's so good about getting married? There is no excitement about picking up girls. Besides, what I pursue is not physical pleasure, but the moving process of getting to know girls. Don't confuse me with other men. "
Speaking of making a gesture to the two men, they left the bar and found a corner to sit down. Adele knew that it was Leon's person, and probably arranged to protect the brother and sister in the tavern. She didn't break it either, and sat on the high chair in front of the bar with Leon. A graceful woman behind the bar was wiping the wine glass, and the speaker not far away was playing soft music. Seeing Leon, the woman smiled and said, "What do you want?"
"The old rules, and ask Peter to give us a roast chicken. Don't forget that I want tomato juice."
Leon spoke to Adele Nunu: "As for this young lady, she prefers black pepper sauce."
"Ok, wait a minute." The woman walked to the back kitchen.
Adele looked at Leon a little unexpectedly. The woman's appearance could only be fair, but compared to Leon's former girlfriends, she was not a bit worse. Leon Tan said: "Why, it's good to change the taste occasionally."
Soon, the woman came back and skillfully made two cocktails for the two of them. Leon pushed one of them to Adele's eyes and said, "Try it, and you will like it."
Adele took a sip, the taste was okay. But for someone like her, her bartending skills are not superb, but it's okay. But Leon was drunk and he didn't know if he was really intoxicated, or he was making women happy. Adele thought that the latter is most likely.
After chatting with Leon for a few words, the woman could see that they had something to say, but without interruption, she went aside to pack up. Leon put down his wine glass, exhaled his breath and looked at Adele, "It looks like you guys have a good time at Heaven?"
"How do you say, we are betting right." Adele tapped the edge of the cup with a slender finger: "After Allen left the heaven star, the swordsman Mason stood up to testify. It proved that the former prime minister appointed by Howson was the murderer who killed Tangliou. Coupled with Howson's previous arbitrary actions, it was a big disappointment. After repelling the shadow principality, we supported the second prince Julian to go north. Last month, we invaded the royal capital Olisga. Howson died in the melee and Julian has succeeded. So you see, our situation is very good."
"Sounds pretty good."
"It’s not bad. Although Alan has been away for almost a year, because we people are still fighting on the heaven star, and we have made great efforts in the north and the imperial war, Julian has resisted all opinions and granted The title of the Marquis of Honor to Allen is temporarily managed by Edward. Not to mention Allen, even Edward has also been promoted to Earl. Now our territory is extremely wide, and it can be said that most of the South is in our pockets. In addition, the Catholicism of Father Miró and Vera is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and there are as many as hundreds of thousands of churches in the south, so now in the empire, our influence can be imagined."
At this time, the roast chicken was ready. A young man came up with two pots of roast chicken, smiled and put them in front of Leon and said: "Please use it slowly."
Adele cut a piece of chicken and chewed it in her mouth. It tasted good. As she ate, she said, "But it's not without hindrance."
"Oh, someone is jealous of your power?" Leon is not surprised at all. He grew up in a big family since he was a child. Under the influence of his ears, he is familiar with this kind of power dispute.
"Perhaps, just a few days before I came back, Olis Garry reported against the Marquis of Ellen. I don’t know where those people got the news, pointing out that Ellen is a stranger, and Our past deeds were also dug up. Although Julian immediately responded that he did not believe in such a thing, when I saw this young majesty once, I could feel that his eyes were a little different when he looked at us. "
"Then what are your plans?"
"Edward said that compared to Alan’s identity, Julian is more afraid of our army and the strong. In this war on the north, we have demonstrated the strength of the dragon army of the empire. , Especially our ordnance, has made the emperor alert. So after returning to the south, Edward has already carried out an army planting. In addition to the peace of his majesty’s mind, he also strives for excellence in the army, and at the same time can To save military expenses, Edward said that this is three birds with one stone."
Leon smiled and said: "I did the same for me, but this kind of decisiveness is not easy. It seems that Alan has picked up the treasure and has such a talent to stay in the heaven star. No wonder he left with his hand."
Adele rolled her eyes and said: "He also left without help."
"Yes, I owe you." Leon raised his hand in surrender.
Adele said: "But even if Julian has any ideas, he dare not show it right away. Now he has just succeeded, and his background is shallow. He doesn't have three to five years to develop his own strength, so he doesn't dare to take it lightly. Those of us who have done the work. Moreover, our territory is the gateway to the south of the empire. Once something happens, it will directly affect the foundation of the empire. After Julian succeeded, he mentioned that a fertile territory in the middle of the empire was exchanged. Edward declined. After all, the South is where our foundation lies. Only when we have a firm foothold can the empire be jealous."
"Moreover, there are natural allies like Ruola in the south and Tieqiangling as a barrier. Regardless of geographical environment or personal connections, we have the advantage. Julian wants to use a piece of the central territory to keep our advantage intact. It was erased sensibly, but Edward was too underestimated."
Leon laughed, patted Adele on the shoulder and said, "Stop talking about this, I'll be back for a few days this time. As for your business, I will ask people to watch, and you will be indispensable. If you Don't worry, you can cooperate with us in addition to the supplies of your Paradise Star in the future except for Bethkode."
Adele picked up the wine glass and gently touched it on Leon's glass: "This is also my purpose of looking for you, but first let me explain that we are still very poor now, but there is no commission for you."
Leon said, "Am I like the kind of person who would spend money with my brother?"
Adele looked at him seriously, and when she saw Leon almost crossed a face, she laughed: "Okay, I know you are not."
Leon only breathed a sigh of relief.
It was evening when the two of them left the tavern, the sky was getting dark, and the town was brightly lit, illuminating their way back.
Far away on the far side of the star road, the Bairegon Empire of the Heavenly Star is also shrouded in night. The most prosperous city in the south today is not Dawn Castle, nor Bauhinia Ridge, but the Ark Harbor, which occupies the north-south transportation hub. The port city once went downhill after the death of Earl Aubin, but after Jola and Orlando got married, the city gradually improved. Ushering in a major turning point, after receiving the second prince Julian, when Julian successfully sat on the throne of the Palace of Dawn, the city began to attract attention.
Now Ark Harbor has become a city that never sleeps, even in the cold winter night, the city's lights have never been extinguished.
In this city, the cathedral must be a sight. Catholicism has been deeply rooted in the empire, and its doctrine is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. There are hundreds of thousands of believers in the south. As the origin of this church, there will naturally be a cathedral in Ark Harbor. Especially in the past few days, when the priests Miró and Vera returned here, the threshold of the cathedral was almost flattened by the believers. But it was late at night, and there was no one in the church except for a few nuns who were praying. So when they saw Father Miró walk in, they were all surprised. After all, this priest woke up later than anyone else and slept earlier than anyone else.
