Chapter 301: The Recruitment of the Shadow Leopard Prince
Sidney said: "It is because you are too young that you have to be invited to the royal capital for training and protection. If something goes wrong, the loss will be huge. For example, now, you are actually asked to go to the enemy country alone.
Go on an adventure in the territory.”
Chris explained: "I came here myself."
"This shows that the old king doesn't pay enough attention to you and can't meet your needs, so you took the risk."
Immediately, Sidney shouted towards the door: "Someone is coming!"
Faraday immediately pushed the door open and said respectfully: "Sir, what are your orders?"
"Go and ask two people to carry the big box under my bed."
"As you wish." Faraday trotted out.
Chris didn't know what kind of medicine Sidney was selling in his gourd, so he continued to interact with him.
The two girls, Reimu and Lilith, ate their cheeks bulging out in a very shameful manner, and their mouths were full of oil.
About ten minutes later, eight male servants carried a box in with a groan, and dropped it to the ground with a "clang" sound.
Obviously, the things inside were very heavy, and they were exhausted and sweating profusely after just a few steps.
After the servants carried the box in, they walked out quietly.
Sidney stood up, walked to the box, and opened the lid.
In an instant, golden light shone out.
There were tons of gold coins inside, at least tens of thousands.
Sidney smiled and said: "This is His Royal Highness the Prince's thanks to you. He already knew that you would pass by here, so he specially asked me to prepare these 50,000 gold coins."
Damn, what a big deal!
Chris originally wanted to say that he would not be rewarded for his merits, and accepting this money would be like boarding the prince's pirate ship.
Then I thought about it, if I don't take it, it's nothing. I helped him get rid of a serious worry, so I should take some money.
So, Chris pointed the space ring at the box full of gold coins.
In a flash of white light, the gold coins and the box disappeared.
"Thank you, Your Highness, for me." Chris smiled brightly.
Sidney Tuqian said: "If Mr. Chris does not get the treatment he deserves in the Eagle Kingdom in the future, you can come to our Shadow Leopard Kingdom. His Highness the Prince will not treat you badly after he ascends the throne."
Chris said without hesitation: "Definitely!"
You say this, but others don’t know what you are thinking in your heart.
I have accepted the money, and I will know whoever I meet in the future.
Sidney thought proudly: This kid has probably never seen so much money in his life, right? He is just a kid after all. He has never seen the world and is easy to fool.
The atmosphere at the wine table became more harmonious. After a jar of wine, the two of them started to call each other brothers with their faces flushed. Chris became someone else's uncle invisibly.
After the dinner, Sidney sent three good rooms to be prepared for Chris. The layout inside was very grand, just like a five-star hotel in his previous life.
The three rooms are adjacent to each other, which was specifically requested by Chris.
After all, they were in an enemy country, and Earl Sidney was an enemy, not a friend.
What we said at the wine table was all nonsense. We might meet again on the battlefield in the future.
······
At night, Lingmeng quietly came over and crawled into Chris's arms like a kitten.
However, no matter how coquettish and cute she acted, Chris "couldn't get up".
Lingmeng felt a little depressed, thinking that he was not attractive enough and his master didn't like him.
Chris sniffed her hair and hugged Reimu from behind.
"Master, do you really plan to give up the territory you have worked so hard to manage and develop in the Shadow Leopard Kingdom in the future?" Lingmeng asked, "But I really like Dawn City."
Chris put his mouth to her delicate little ears and whispered: "Of course not."
"Then how did you..."
"After taking his money, of course you have to follow his words."
"Master, how good are you?" Lingmeng said with a bad smile, "But, I like it so much."
"Go to sleep, we have to travel tomorrow."
······
In the early morning of the next day, just after dawn, Chris woke up.
After having a sumptuous breakfast at the City Lord's Mansion, Chris declined Sidney's invitation to stay a few more days and continued on his way with Lilith and the little dog.
Sidney took him to the city gate with his family.
Chris waved goodbye: "Goodbye."
The Earl pushed the indifferent Joyce and said, "Quick, let's say goodbye to your Uncle Chris."
Joyce's mind was filled with questions: "What?"
"At the banquet last night, Chris called me eldest brother. Isn't this your uncle?" Sidney was very dissatisfied. "Hurry up, if you don't call him, he will go away."
Joyce gritted his teeth and said nothing.
"If you don't scream, I will beat you tonight!"
Joyce blushed, and in the presence of countless people, she shouted: "Goodbye, Uncle Chris!"
Although he had already walked dozens of meters away, Chris still heard it and couldn't help but look back.
I saw that guy Joyce lowering his head, eager to find a place to get in.
With a snicker, Chris left without looking back.
Because there was a small spotted dog behind him, Chris was not very fast. He did not enter the Twin Cities until sunset.
He encountered no trouble here, and after spending a smooth night, he continued on his way.
After spending half a day, Chris and the others finally entered the area of Thorn Ridge. Although there was no one around here, they still felt a sense of intimacy in their hearts.
He ran with a clattering sound and his pace was neither fast nor slow.
Chris decided to go to the Tauren City to rest for a while, and then continued on his way after lunch.
But what I didn't expect is that there are still some people living in this simple city.
According to his idea, all the tauren should have moved to Dawn City at this time.
Entering the city, Chris' identity was immediately recognized.
A tauren stepped forward and said anxiously: "Sorry, Mr. Chris, something happened in Dawn City."
Chris's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly asked: "Tell me, what happened to Dawn City?"
"Half a month after you left, a group of businessmen passed by Shuguang City after dark, so they spent a sum of money to rest in the city. The next day, they witnessed how we built the city and were fascinated by the blue bricks.
Deep interest.”
"Ten days after they left, another group of people came. They claimed to be the men of Marquis Occam and wanted to spend 50,000 gold coins to buy the formula for blue bricks."
"Miss Tina didn't agree, so they stationed themselves outside the city. From time to time, sixth-level powerhouses came forward to put pressure on the city. Many ordinary people couldn't bear the pressure of those people, so the progress of city construction came to a halt."
Anger arose in Chris's heart. He didn't expect that something like this would happen in the territory just over a month after he left.
