Realizing that Heimerdinger was a little distracted, Lester stopped and said, "The science and technology exhibition is in the east courtyard. To the north is the dormitory building, to the southeast is the teaching building, and to the west is the exhibition hall. I need to go to the exhibition hall now to attend a discussion."
, do you want to go with me?"
Heimerdinger shook his head and looked up in the direction of the east courtyard.
"Lister, I want to go to the East Campus to see the science and technology exhibition. Compared to holding those meaningless meetings, I prefer something a little more realistic."
The man shrugged. He was not prepared to force Heimerdinger to stay. With the temperament of the Yodels, if Heimerdinger could not be willing to choose the Emerald Territory, no matter how many good gestures he made, it would be useless.
Meaningless things.
As for forcibly kidnapping Heimerdinger to the Emerald Territory and letting Heimerdinger live the life of master sculptor Durand, such an option has never appeared in Leicester.
Durang and the Yodles are not the same species at all, so they cannot be compared.
"Okay, I believe Teemo will take good care of you. Teemo is the most outstanding scout in Bandle City. He knows how to do things in human society. As long as you don't leave the gate of the academy, it will be fine. If you encounter an identity check,
Guys, just tell me the name of the Emerald Leader. If that doesn’t work, you can come to the exhibition hall to find me. I think I will spend the whole day there.”
"Thank you, Lester, you are as reliable as I say... Come on, Teemo, I can't wait to see what these proud Zaans have got up to them!"
After watching the helpless Teemo being pulled away by Heimerdinger, Lester turned around and walked towards the west.
The exhibition hall is located in a flat building. Through a certain principle of optical refraction, the Zaun Strait topographic map on the main seat is placed on the huge conference tent. Lester can see more than fifty figures with numbers.
The marked marks are distributed in different locations. Overall, the marks cover both sides of the Taiwan Strait. There are already many bidders in the hall whispering.
By the time Lester arrived, more than half of the bidders in the exhibition hall had already arrived. Looking around, there were already about twenty business family representatives sitting on the seats. If they were all full, there would probably be more than thirty ancestors.
Security forces.
Connor Fellows was sitting at the edge of the back row, waiting for the meeting to begin. Kelsey was sitting on the higher second floor. It was a special location that only VIPs could reach. Judging from the seating arrangement,
, obviously Connor Fellows did not receive any explicit special care.
Before Lester could say anything, a maid with an emerald collar came down from the second floor to lead the way.
Following the maid of the Jelist family up to the second floor, Lester sat down behind Kelsey, shook his head and whispered to Kelsey who looked worried.
"Just do your thing and don't worry about me. Today, I'm just a spectator."
Hearing what Lester said, Kelsey could only suppress the doubts in her heart. She knew that it was better not to be too curious about some things.
As time went by, the last bidder force that accepted the invitation also took their seats. At ten o'clock, the door slowly closed. The dean of the college and one of the members of the Zaun Council, a middle-aged man named Terrance, greeted
Attracting everyone's attention to the main seat, his voice was extremely loud and his spirit was high.
"Welcome all distinguished guests to participate in this project bidding. In order to complete this greatest strait expansion project in history, the Zaun Council has raised enough project funds, and every force participating in the project can obtain sufficient and fruitful benefits.
Salary, I think before this, everyone has understood the specific requirements of this tender.
As the current dean of Frederic Institute of Science and Technology, I am honored to be able to stand here and explain all the projects of this project to you again... Mr. Senior, please move the light point to the first mark.
"
"Okay, Mr. Dean."
The thin young man responded quickly. By turning the horizontal and vertical brass handles at the same time, the complex star path slowly began to move, thus changing the angle of the sun. Lester soon discovered the new appearance.
The sun spot is pointed at the first mark of the projection tent. I have to say that this design is quite clever.
"Please take a look, this is the blasting point map designed by our craftsmen. There are fifty-two blasting points in the whole map, and the place where the sun shines is the first blasting point. This place is located on the south bank of the strait, because there
The terrain is too steep, and the cliffs are made of hard rock. It is close to the harbor buildings. It is very difficult and risky to blast without destroying the buildings.
The first bidding section is from the first point to the eighth point. For this most difficult bidding section, the Zaun Council will provide sufficient project funds. At the same time, we also need quite professional blasting engineers.
and excellent explosives.
It is not an easy task to blow up the strait with explosives. Any mistake will make the project out of control. Those who are interested in the first bid section can pay attention to it and submit the bid documents after the meeting. We
We will evaluate the information provided by each bidder and select the most suitable construction organization.
Next is the second bidding section, and the second bidding section is from the ninth point to the fifteenth point..."
Lester quietly listened to Terrance's speech. He did not expect that the bidding process would be so interesting.
The fifty-two blasting points are divided into eight bidding sections. The blasting difficulty and requirements of each bidding section are different, and the project funds are also large and small. For some reasons, each force can bid multiple times. However,
Only one bid can be obtained at most, and the competition for eight bids among more than 30 businessmen was fierce. However, overall, the meeting maintained a good and harmonious atmosphere, and there was no 'uncivilized' behavior.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! By the time the lecture was finished, it was already noon, and each bidder submitted the bidding documents prepared in advance. The college was on the lawn outside the exhibition hall.
Carpets and parasols were laid out, providing everyone with a unique picnic experience.
Taking the porcelain plate and knife and fork casually, Lester took a bite or two of the cooked meat prepared in the dining car, then frowned and put down the tableware.
It's not that the salt and pepper steak is not delicious, it's just that the skalash meat in his mouth reminds him of several old friends in Shurima.
Kelsey, who had been secretly observing Lester, saw this and walked over slowly, lowering her voice.
"Mr. Lister, was your trip going smoothly this time?"
"Take down the chemical plant I told you about. There is indeed something interesting underground. We need to get it in our hands. But we don't want any funds or personnel to go in until the Zaun people complete their expansion plan.
Don’t forget what I told you.”
"yes."
Keeping Lester's instructions in mind, Kelsey, who felt the atmosphere was a bit dull and didn't like to get close to others, took the initiative to speak again.
"Mr. Lister, there is another meeting in the afternoon about the construction plan of the giant sea gate [Sun Gate]. If you find it boring, you can leave at any time and leave it to us."
Seeing that Kelsey still had no intention of leaving, Lester finally focused his attention on the girl's delicate face, with a more teasing look in his eyes.
"Little girl, it seems that you care about me very much? Well, for the sake of your good performance this time, tell me, what do you want from me? If you want me, I can't consider it.
For a moment, let you and Xina be good sisters."
Kelsey was a little overwhelmed by the shame she had never felt before. The girl rubbed her heated cheeks, stood up, and adjusted her skirt to avoid the man's amused gaze.
"Well... Sir, please don't make fun of me. Actually, I actually want to hear you tell a story about the past, about the founder of the Gerrist family, the ancestor of Maurice.
I grew up listening to his stories, but the feelings others tell about them are definitely different from the feelings you give me. You are a great witness and you must know more stories about Morris’s ancestors.”
"It turns out he is an admirer of Maurice's family. Hey, I didn't expect that guy to have such an outstanding descendant as you. If he knew about it, I'm afraid he would laugh from ear to ear..."
Smiling and patting the seat next to him, Lester took two glasses of freshly squeezed sweet milk from the dining cart.
"Sit down. Since you want to know about Maurice's scandal, I will tell you a few things, but please don't tell anyone else."
"Ah? The scandal of our ancestors? I, sir, I..."
"Oh? Do you really don't want to hear it? This is a dark spot in the life of the great Maurice. Do you really don't want to hear it?"
Holding back her blush, Kelsey lowered her head like a little girl and made a sound like a mosquito moan.
"think……"
Passing the milk in his hand to Kelsey, Lester took a sip and looked up at the blue sky.
"Hey, that's right, believe me, if it were Morris, he would definitely put his ear over without hesitation, without any hesitation at all.
Kelsey, in my opinion, there are no truly great people in this world. Everyone makes mistakes. Maurice can do it, I can do it, and even the gods in the sky can peel off the aura deified by legends.
Everyone is just an animal dominated by seven emotions and six desires. After tearing apart the shiny shell, their insides are uglier than we imagined...
Well, I think you young people don’t like the old guy’s preaching very much. As this opportunity is rare, I will tell you the story of my encounter with Morris.
It was not long after I came to the Immortal Fortress. At that time, the Noxians were still a group of barbarians who didn’t even have enough clothes and danced with their buttocks exposed. Can you imagine the Noxians at the bonfire night?
Is the dance you are most proud of, the gorilla dance?
The dancing Noxian ruler beat his chest like a gorilla, awkwardly opened his legs, and a man and a woman kept spinning around the bonfire. When they were happy, they just stood there amidst the cheers of the crowd.
In order to demonstrate this dance after giving birth, Nadarz, the patriarch of the Roxy clan at that time, personally demonstrated it for me..."
"Big, gorilla? Or the legendary stalwart Lord Nadarz?"
Kelsey's eyes widened, and her cheeks spread from the tips of her ears to her collarbones like sunset. In her impression, the old nobles of Noxus always embodied classicism and elegance in all aspects of life. The rules of the old nobles were astonishing.
called harsh,
Dance, etiquette, conversation and behavior, every detail inherits the oldest glory of Noxus.
And now, the founder of the Emerald Territory, the oldest and most mysterious legend in Noxus, tells her that the great men who founded Noxus turned out to be just a group of dancing gorillas?
Suddenly there was a feeling of disillusionment.
"Yes, it's what you think. So in my opinion, the etiquette of the old and new nobles of Noxus today is very ridiculous. Those are just expressions to highlight different classes. Unless there are still people today
Willing to dance the gorilla dance in public.
The old nobles of Noxus just want to use those rules and regulations to make their status higher than others, but they don’t really want to commemorate the old glory of Noxus through those red tapes. Don’t regard complexity and profundity as mystery and awe.
, the simpler and clearer the thing, the more worthy of respect."
"Okay, okay, sir, I'll remember that."
Nodding with satisfaction, Lester also talked about sex a lot more with the girl who always gave him positive feedback.
"In that era, the Roxy clan defeated the dark tyrant with the help of the Black Rose and successfully occupied the Immortal Fortress. One can imagine how many forces that have coveted the Immortal Fortress for a long time. In the continuous battles
, the Roxy clan led by Nadarz finally defeated other challengers and gained a foothold in the Immortal Fortress.
But the good times did not last long. At that time, the two barbarian forces in the Dalmo Plain in the north coveted the land in the south. When the Immortal Fortress was at its weakest, they colluded with bandit groups to go south, plundering and massacring the villages along the way.
The two barbarian forces were blocked at the eastern foot of the Gorel Mountains by the army of the Immortal Fortress, while the bandits attacked from the western foot.
I'm afraid you don't know that the Immortal Fortress at that time could not gather a centurion of soldiers composed of young and middle-aged men. At that time, when the troops were dispatched on the Plaza de la Conqueror, I could only lead a group of old, weak, sick and disabled people to go north to stop the bandits' offensive.
I don’t know if the past events are recorded in your Jerist family’s classics. Your ancestor Maurice was a young man from North Knoll Village. Before he established the Jerist family, he had already married and had his own wife and son.
The bandits of the Beheaded Bandit Group rushed into Beinuoer Village. He lost everything and became a prisoner of the bandits.
We met just after I defeated the Decapitated Bandits. At that time, he was like a piece of coal that was about to go out. He didn't even want to eat and couldn't find any motivation to live... Believe me, that was your hero.
