Chapter 1318 Annual Meeting of the Silver Iris Family (4)
The Green Rose Province is known as the brightest emerald in the crown of the Haran Empire. The scenery of this province is extremely beautiful, with large and small rivers and exquisite mountains spread throughout the province, and the forest coverage rate reaches more than 90%. The people in the province
The main business is planting rare tulips. During the busiest months for tulip sales, a rare tulip from the Pothos Province can often be sold for a sky-high price of several thousand gold coins.
Therefore, this province is also the richest province in the Haran Empire. It is precisely because of this that the Lulu Province is the private land of the royal family of the Haran Empire. The entire province is directly managed by the royal family, except for a few insignificant little nobles and a group of nothing.
Powerful landowners, all the wealth in Luluo Province belongs to the royal family of the Haran Empire.
Silver Snow Summit Tulip Manor is the most valuable manor in Luluo Province. The owner of this manor is just an ordinary viscount, but he has the status of a royal merchant of the Harlan Empire. Half of the annual income from this manor belongs to the Harlan Empire.
Owned by the Royal Family.
Because of this unique status as an imperial merchant, Viscount Yin Xueding has an extremely unique status in Luluo Province, with an almost unparalleled reputation. Therefore, this manor is known as the highest peak of the Haran Empire, and the snow-covered Yin Xueding is always there.
It is named after the snow-topped mountain, but no one has any objection.
"The royal merchants of the Harlan Empire are actually peripheral vassals of the Silver Iris family. The Silver Iris family is really amazing!"
When night was about to fall, Lin Qi rode a skinny donkey and walked slowly into Yinxueding City. This small city, which was about three miles long and wide, was also the property of Viscount Yinxueding. Tens of thousands of people lived in this city.
The large and neat tulip fields outside are the famous Silver Snow Summit Tulip Manor. Almost all the people in this city rely on these flower fields to make a living.
While admiring the neat streets of the small town and the potted plants with buds on the roadside, Lin Qi softly admired them.
The expressionless Esther followed Lin Qi on a pony and said coldly: "My lord, you are actually a prince of the Blood Qin Empire. Isn't this even more incredible? I heard His Highness Qing Li say it.
, your combined territory in the east is as large as two Gallic empires?"
Lin Qi nodded disapprovingly: "Maybe it's a little bigger? But the products are definitely much better than the Gallic Empire, and the population of the people is also much larger. The people of my three provinces, plus Qingli
The people of this country are probably five times more than the total population of the Gallic Empire."
Esther looked at Lin Qi in shock. Even though she was always as cold as ice, she was still stunned by Lin Qi's words.
A mere prince of the bloody Qin Empire has about five times more people in his territory than the entire population of the Gallic Empire. In other words, if this prince can cross the continental bridge and expedition to the west, his army will be
, is it possible to catch up with the combined armies of all countries in the Western Continent?
"The Blood Qin Empire is such a terrible country!" Esther murmured to herself: "Fortunately, we are not bordering them, and we will not face their threats. The princes of that empire are as cruel and terrifying as you.
Is he as ruthless as the devil?"
Lin Qi rolled his eyes. Is he cruel, terrifying, and ruthless? What did this woman Esther think of herself?
Rolling his eyes at Esther, Lin Qi laughed like a crow announcing a funeral: "Then I'll tell you some good news. Our great Emperor Ying Zheng of the Blood Qin Empire has started a general mobilization of the entire Eastern Continent! It's not just blood.
The Qin Empire, and even the thousands of large and small countries surrounding the Blood Qin Empire, have begun general mobilization!"
"The nomads of the Continental Bridge are frantically attacking the western continent, and they have no time to pay attention to the defense of the east."
"So our Majesty Ying Zheng is ready to stab those nomads in the back. The tip of his knife is likely to penetrate directly into the hinterland of the Western Continent. To be honest, I am also looking forward to seeing the legion platoon in units of hundreds of millions.
When the phalanx marches on the mainland, what a spectacular scene it will be? Think about it, how many soldiers can the Blood Qin Empire mobilize? One hundred million? Two hundred million? Three hundred million? "
As Lin Qi talked, he couldn't help but feel his scalp numb. Ying Zheng, that old madman, this old madman who wanted to be reborn even if he took over the body of his direct descendant, in order to realize his dream of conquering the entire world, he would
Send all the people of the Eastern Continent to the battlefield without hesitation!
That huge continent, that continent with a population of tens of billions, how many troops did the crazy Ying Zheng prepare?
Esther's little face turned pale. She looked at Lin Qi in horror and murmured to herself almost as if she was dreaming: "Are you kidding me?"
Lin Qi shrugged his shoulders and murmured in a low voice: "I also hope it was a joke, but he really did it. You can't understand what kind of old madman he was, and what terrible and incredible things he did.
Thing! Anyway, that’s what he did.”
Glancing towards the northwest of the continent, Lin Qi pursed his lips and smiled strangely: "Aliens? Those aliens who are shouting that they want to conquer the Western Continent and destroy mankind? It's simply ridiculous. Waiting for the army of the Blood Qin Empire to appear in front of them
At this time, I hope they can continue to shout slogans that make people’s blood boil!”
"Destroy mankind? Those crazy generals from the Blood Qin Empire, those lunatics who like to slaughter cities and destroy countries for fun. They will make the brains of the orcs into drinks and cut off their thigh meat to feed the dogs!"
Lin Qi muttered a few words with a sullen face, and then waved his hands to indicate that he was not going to continue this terrible topic.
Esther looked at Lin Qi in horror: "Stop him!"
Lin Qi looked at Esther in surprise: "Stop him? Why? If he conquers the Western Continent, I will most likely become the governor of the Western Province of the Blood Qin Empire, and I will become the supreme ruler of the entire Western Continent.
Why should I stop him? You will then become the slave girl of the wife of the ruler of the entire Western Continent, and your status will be several times higher than the pope of the church. Why do you want to stop him? "
Esther was stunned for a while, and her frightened eyes suddenly glowed with endless ambition and madness.
She grabbed Lin Qi's hand, and a gentle smile appeared on her cold face: "Master Lin Qi, my respected master, is what you said true? You will become the master of the entire Western Continent? If
If this is the case, we should start thinking about constructing a march map for the entire western continent, start buying off the powerful generals of each empire, and start assassinating those generals who have a strong will to resist."
Lin Qi looked blankly at Esther, who had suddenly undergone earth-shaking changes. Well, he overestimated the moral level of this woman after all. This ambitious woman who wanted to become a god, when she knew that the Blood Qin Empire had captured the Western Continent
It may bring huge benefits to Lin Qi in the future, but she is actually ready to betray the entire continent without blinking an eyelid!
Well, maybe this is human nature! Lin Qi shrugged his shoulders and swore seriously that he would never release control of Esther's soul in this life.
In order to take care of the florists who come to buy all kinds of tulips during the flower season, there are several very high-end hotels in Yin Xueding City. Lin Qi rode a donkey around the city and chose a hotel whose exterior walls looked a bit mottled.
It is a very historical Silver Tulip Hotel.
The logo of this hotel is a silver tulip. This is not surprising. The logos of various hotels and restaurants in this city are basically inseparable from tulips. But what Lin Qi finds interesting is that,
The logo of this silver tulip hotel is inlaid with mithril flakes. If you want to make a silver tulip logo, you can also use pure silver to achieve the same effect, but since mithril is used here, you can imagine that this hotel
Who is behind the hotel?
Esther and the accompanying Alsa, Nightmare and others dismounted one after another. Naturally, the hotel servants came up to meet them. They took the donkey and the horse to the stable at the rear and took care of them carefully. Big Hei and Xiao Hei looked at the donkey with great resentment.
A basket hung on his hip made a rude gesture to Lin Qi, but Lin Qi pretended not to notice their complaints.
A chubby manager with a smile on his face was already standing in front of the hotel to greet Lin Qi and his party.
"Dear guests, welcome to the Silver Tulip Hotel with a history of 150 years. Our hotel was just renovated half a year ago, and all wallpapers, wainscots, floors and other appliances have just been updated to ensure that they can
Let you get the best enjoyment and the best rest. Our hotel has highly skilled chefs to carefully prepare hundreds of special dishes for you, and we strive to satisfy you in every detail!”
"By the way, I am your full-time manager Silva. No matter what your requirements are, I will try my best to do it for you!"
Lin Qi nodded to the chubby Silva and said calmly: "Very good, Mr. Silva, first thing, I hope you prepare a batch of good rum for me. I like rum."
Wine. The second thing is, I hope to meet the owner of Silver Snow Summit Tulip Manor tomorrow, and I plan to reserve a batch of valuable tulips before the flower season."
After a slight pause, Lin Qi said in a deep voice: "The third thing is to prepare hot water. We have been running all the way and need a good bath. Finally, prepare a special dinner for us as you mentioned. I hope you can
Dining in the restaurant allows me to experience the local customs and customs here!”
Lin Qi tilted his head towards Esther, who took out a gold ticket worth 100,000 gold coins from the small handbag she was carrying and handed it to Silva.
Silva's eyes narrowed, he took the golden ticket respectfully, and bowed to Lin Qi with difficulty: "Then the golden ticket is stored at the front desk for you, and all your expenses will be paid from it. Please come in, we are just right
There are several of the most luxurious suites available, and all your requests will be met immediately.”
Half an hour later, Lin Qi, who was refreshed after bathing and changing clothes, sat in the restaurant of the Silver Tulip Hotel.
He leaned comfortably on the high-backed chair, slowly sipping a glass of century-old rum, and at the same time listened to the goings on around him.
At this time, Bilibili and the others should have begun to infiltrate into the three strongholds Esther mentioned. Which stronghold is the Silver Iris family holding its annual meeting at? I believe it won't take long for the results to come out.
At this moment, a voice sounded that made Lin Qi's body tremble suddenly.
"Sir, Superintendent, I must highly recommend the honey-glazed lamb shank here. It is so delicious. I come back here every weekend to taste it."
Lin Qi turned around, and he immediately saw the face of an old acquaintance. He really didn't expect that he would meet him here. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to register as a Piaotian Literature member to recommend it.
