Chapter 23 A rare opportunity

PreviousBack to directoryNext
 Ilea never dreamed that her first banquet would be so successful.

Not only did he win a battle with a certain stinky weasel, which made the latter so angry that he ran out of the Teacup Castle crying, but the other guests also obviously had a very high opinion of this banquet.

When they go back, they will definitely share what happened at the banquet with their friends and family.

Whether it's senbei snow cake, New Orleans roast chicken and Lao Gan Ma, or the last two bottles of Great Wall wine, they will definitely be talked about by the nobles of the Western Region in the next period of time.

After that, if the Arias family holds a banquet, they won't have to worry about not having many guests. On the contrary, the carriages and horses coming after hearing the news may block the castle gate.

Thinking of this scene, Miss Rabbit almost smiled crookedly.

Is the Arias family going to rise by her own hands? The girl has already begun to enjoy the following plot. She works hard and works hard, and in exchange for the vigorous development of the territory, the crops are harvested every year, and the carrots are sold better and better. The territory

All the people above live and work in peace and contentment.

In the end, he led the Arias family to surpass the Emmanuel family in one fell swoop and became the richest noble in the West.

Miss Rabbit swayed the wine glass in her hand, wandering in a rose-colored fantasy until the banquet was over.

The guests dispersed one after another, but some chose to stay and spend the night at Teacup Castle, including Leo.

When everyone was almost gone, Leo finally found an opportunity to stop Li Yu who was planning to go back to his room.

"I can't let you slip away from my eyes this time." The young man from the royal family said while showing his signature smile.

"You have something to do with me?"

Leo did not answer Li Yu's question immediately, but instead said, "I drank a lot tonight, and I need to sober up a little now. Why don't we go to the top of the city to enjoy the breeze."

Li Yu looked at his watch and saw that there was still time, so he nodded.

The two left the banquet hall, climbed all the way up the city wall, and walked around for a short time on it. Then Leo didn't want to leave, so he found a crenel, leaned on it, waved his hand, and asked his guards to step aside.

Then he spoke again, "Do you know who the Arias family originally built this castle to guard against?"

"The lizard people in the swamp, and the remnants of the Enriquez family entrenched in the forest." Li Yu said. During this period, he also learned a lot about the history of the major families in the Western Region.

Leo chuckled upon hearing this, "Indeed, they have always said this to the outside world, and even the descendants of the Arias family believed this statement, but at the beginning, this castle was actually used for surveillance.

From Black Rock City next door.”

"Um?"

"Although the Emmanuel family surrendered to the empire early on, and also contributed a lot in the subsequent battle of the Blood Dragon's Wailing, and even lost several members of the family's direct bloodline, Philip Snowclaw has never truly trusted them.

.

"The stain of betrayal is not so easy to wash away. Once you have done such a thing, even once, you will bear such a bad reputation for the rest of your life. Not only that, your descendants will not be able to escape either.

"In short, Philip gave the green field to a trustworthy vassal and asked the latter to build a castle on this land. If there is any change in the people in Black Rock City, Teacup Castle will soon get the news.

Gather the troops.

"The people of the Emmanuel family have to make a decision at this time. The Arias family's army is certainly no match for them, but unless they can first take down the Teacup Castle behind them.

"Otherwise, no matter what they want to do, once the army leaves, their hometown, Black Rock City, will be at risk of being raided. And Philip is a ruthless man who massacred the Enriquez family in Dragon Flame City. If Black Rock City falls to him,

On hand, haha."

When Leo said this, he glanced at Li Yu, and then suddenly slapped his head, "Hey, look at me, okay, why did we suddenly start talking about politics again? I obviously came to the Western Region just to relax. What's next?

Let me put it in your place, tell me about Saturday and its weekends."

"Why, Sir Leo also wants to change his faith?" Li Yu raised his eyebrows.

The young man from the royal family smiled slyly, "It depends on how capable you and your Saturday are. In addition to recording and repeating sounds, do you have any other means? Give me a demonstration."

Li Yu shook his head, "My methods are not for show."

"Then first explain to me your doctrine, or introduce the situation of the sect. How many people do you have now, and how many believers have you recruited?" Leo asked curiously.

"The purpose of the Double Holiday Church is to enable every believer who believes in Saturday to live a better life. Currently, there are not many people in the church. Besides me, there are five assistants of mine. As for the believers... there are currently about

There must be more than a thousand people."

"A thousand people?" Leo's eyes lit up, "In just two months, you have recruited more than a thousand believers?"

"That's right."

"Your speech must be very inspiring." Leo said, "But this is not surprising. After all, when you were in Yanxue City, you relied on your excellent eloquence to reverse the unfavorable situation for Miss Ilea, and even

You have single-handedly decided on the candidate for the new head of the Arias family. With all due respect, it would be a bit disrespectful for you to continue to stay in the Western Region."

Li Yu remained silent.

"If you are willing, I can take you back to the royal capital and introduce you to the great nobles in the royal capital. With your ability, you will definitely become their guest very soon. You only need to get one or two by then.

Favored by the big shots, your Shuangxujiao can quickly take root and grow in the empire.

"Oh, you are not from the empire, so you may not know very well. The situation in the royal capital is different from that in the west. There is no single major sect like the Silver Moon Church, and there are people who believe in all kinds of gods. So you and the people behind you

There will also be more opportunities on Saturday, and if you can meet His Majesty the Emperor, you may be able to convert him to Saturday."

"Are you recruiting me?"

"No, no, no, you misunderstood. Maybe I didn't make it clear last time. I'm just a playboy wandering around to have some fun." Leo smiled, "I don't have consultants around me, and I won't recruit anyone."

Anyone. Who leaves me with nothing to do all day long, so I can no longer burden other people.

"But I like to make friends with different people and listen to their weird stories. Of course, if they need help and it happens to be within my ability, I don't mind lending a helping hand, but you don't have to worry,

I won't ask you to give me anything in return."

Leo's tone was full of sincerity.
