Chapter 179 Earl Zhang Feng(1/2)
Because the merchants were eager to think about their family, Zhang Feng asked them to go back first. Of course, Zhang Feng didn't know whether they really thought about their family or wanted to sell the goods in their hands at a high price.
The only ones accompanying the queen were Zhang Feng, the beast-eared girl, and Princess Anne and her group.
From the beginning of stepping onto Red Leaf Steam No. 1, the queen was amazed all the way.
Perhaps there are no outsiders, or perhaps Princess Anne is by her side, the queen seems to talk a lot and have all kinds of questions, so Zhang Feng naturally answered them patiently.
However, a woman's focus is that men are different, even if she is the queen.
Originally, Zhang Feng thought she would ask some questions about power and load, but who knew that what she had been asking about was about appearance and comfort.
Zhang Feng suddenly felt that he could do some business with the royal family!
But don't worry, let's take a look first.
Especially after seeing the huge bulletproof glass window, the queen's eyes were filled with small stars.
"Baron Zhang Feng, is this crystal?"
The queen's tone was a little unbelievable.
"Yes, His Highness."
Zhang Feng nodded.
The queen didn't know what to say for a moment.
As the queen of the Buck Kingdom, she has never seen anything before? But she has never seen such a big crystal!
Especially when he saw his own shadow on the window, the queen was stunned for a moment.
This was the first time she saw herself so clearly!
The queen trotted to the window with some excitement, but strangely, when she got closer, she could no longer see the shadow on the crystal.
"Why...can I...can't see myself anymore?"
Zhang Feng noticed the queen's strangeness, and after a moment of thinking, he guessed it was almost impossible.
He explained this kind of thing, but the queen probably couldn't understand it, so he whispered:
"Your Highness, this crystal is not a mirror after all, and it is impossible to see your own clearly."
“…Yes, this is crystal…”
The queen had a deep disappointment on her face. Seeing this, Zhang Feng took out an exquisite little mirror and respectfully handed it to the queen.
"Your Highness, this is a gadget made in our Red Leaf City. It's not worth much. If Your Highness likes it, you can hold it and play with it."
When the queen first heard Zhang Feng's words, she didn't actually care.
In their Buck Kingdom, or in this world, gifts are very high-profile, for fear that others don’t know how valuable the things they give are.
Some shameless people even exaggerate! Of course, if you are facing a king or a queen, no one dares to commit suicide like this.
Therefore, things that are valuable are generally valuable, but those that are not valuable are really valuable.
The queen naturally didn't take it seriously when she heard Zhang Feng say "a worthless gadget".
But she subconsciously glanced and immediately couldn't take her eyes off.
An exquisite small box was held in Zhang Feng's hand. The box looked like it was made of pure gold, and was inlaid with colorful gems, which shone under the sunlight.
"This is……"
The queen was a little unaware of what to say. Although she didn't know what was in the box, this box alone was worth a lot.
Not to mention the material itself, just talking about the exquisite workmanship is not comparable to ordinary people. At least it can be carved by masters for several years!
“This is a small mirror.”
Zhang Feng didn't keep it a secret and slowly opened the box.
As the box opened, the queen's mouth became bigger and bigger.
"Is this... me?"
Looking at the beautiful woman inside, the queen was a little unconfident for a moment, not knowing if it was herself.
Because he had never seen such a clear mirror!
"Of course it's you, and only you, the Queen, deserve such a beautiful appearance!"
Zhang Feng spoke without any redness.
Several beast-eared ladies looked at Zhang Feng with contempt, but they did not destroy the situation and gave Zhang Feng enough face. Of course, the queen is indeed beautiful.
"Ah? Haha, Baron Zhang Feng is really good at speaking!"
No woman doesn't like to be praised, even if she is the queen, even if she knows that the other party is complimenting her, she is just happy.
But these are all secondary. The queen carefully picked up the small box, for fear of breaking it.
The self in the mirror is clearly visible, and even the pores on the face can be seen clearly!
"What a magical mirror!"
The queen was playing with it with some love. At this moment, she had forgotten that she had come up to visit this behemoth.
Princess Anne, who was not talking, also had an envious look in her eyes.
Although Zhang Feng gave her a small mirror before, her small mirror was relatively simple than the one in the queen's hand. At first glance, it looked better.
Of course, Anne won't dislike it, but she will still envy it.
"Baron Zhang Feng, this is such a good thing! I have never seen such a delicate mirror and such a clear mirror in my life!"
The queen praised without hesitation, with unconcealed love in her eyes.
If it were something else, she might be more reserved, but in this era, she really likes this kind of mirror that can be seen through!
"Just as long as His Highness likes it!"
Zhang Feng was a little uncertain before. As the queen of the Buck Kingdom, she must have been knowledgeable and had seen all kinds of rare treasures. It is not impossible to see such a mirror.
After all, everything has a chance.
Zhang Feng was ready to change his gift when the queen didn't like it.
But now it seems that the effect of this small mirror is still good.
"I like it, I like it so much! Baron Zhang Feng... Well? Why do you feel that the four words "Baron Zhang Feng" are a bit unpleasant? Annie, don't you?"
The queen suddenly turned her head and asked Princess Anne.
"I... is it."
Princess Anne didn't know what the queen meant, so she reluctantly agreed.
"Even you think so! That's right. I think it's easier to call 'Count Zhang Feng'. What do you think?"
Although the queen said to Princess Anne, she looked at Zhang Feng with a smile in her eyes.
"Yeah, I agree with my mother's opinion!"
Princess Anne finally understood what her mother meant and nodded quickly to agree.
"Then... that's what it means to call him, Earl Zhang Feng?"
"Ah? Oh, okay! Thank you Your Highness!"
Zhang Feng finally recovered from his daze.
Is this directly promoted from the Baron to the Earl?
So casual?
Zhang Feng still remembers that in the Kingdom of Buck, the real aristocrat was the Count and above!
Barons and Viscounts can be purchased with gold coins, like his baron's title is 100 gold coins.
But it is different when you get to the earl. In principle, the titles above the earl will not be sold.
Even if you can buy it, the price will be painful for even a rich businessman. Moreover, it is not enough to have money alone. There are various conditions, which is extremely troublesome anyway.
Of course, there is also a simple one, that is, it is to be enthroned by the king.
Although the queen does not have the power of a king, there is no problem in canonizing an earl.
But to be honest, Zhang Feng didn't feel much except for surprise. After all, he had been developing in his own territory and had never been in contact with the circle of nobles. He didn't understand what the identity of the Count could bring.
Although the queen's decision seemed like a joke, she also considered it carefully. Not to mention Zhang Feng's gift, she said that Zhang Feng rescued Princess Anne intact. After all, she escorted back safely. It is not an exaggeration to be named an earl for this credit.
Even if it is not a gift now, the king will reward him when Zhang Feng meets the king. It will be the same if there is such a gift. But if this is raised by the queen, Zhang Feng will definitely thank the queen and receive her love.
I have to say that although the queen seems harmless, her mind is not as simple as it seems. It is not even her intentional, but subconsciously, and she did it naturally.
But no matter what, after the queen's words, Zhang Feng became the earl of the Buck Kingdom.
But what surprised the queen was that Zhang Feng seemed extremely calm.
Not bad, not bad!
Whether it was pretending or really so calm, Zhang Feng made the queen look up high.
