Chris did not spend the night at the princess's place, but returned to the viscount's mansion.
The next day, Brent woke him up before he woke up.
"Get up quickly, we're going to see off the princess later." Brent lifted up Chris' quilt.
Today is the day when the princess leaves, and all the nobles want to see her off.
Chris got dressed, followed his brother to have breakfast at Grandma Vitley's, and then the two of them walked out of the Viscount Mansion.
On the street, young nobles were constantly coming out of their homes and walking towards the place where the princess lived.
Brent sighed and said: "As far as I know, apart from purchasing some food and water, the princess has not signed a business contract with any family in the past two days. After the banquet, some young nobles even wanted to see her.
Disaster."
"Oh." Chris agreed softly.
Brent suddenly asked: "How is your jam business going? I heard that the princess visited Hope Town the day before yesterday."
He is very concerned about this matter. Once Princess Shirley opens the market in the royal capital, it will easily become popular across the country. Then when Brent goes to nearby big cities to do business, he will be able to get twice the result with half the effort.
.
Chris smiled slightly and said: "The princess and I have successfully signed a business contract and sold 1,600 jars of jam to her."
"Really?" Brent was so happy that he almost jumped up.
"Just listen to him." Next to him, Plato heard the whispers between the two of them and curled his lips disdainfully, "Open your eyes and take a look. Is there any jam in the things that the guards are packing?"
The three of them had already arrived in front of the villa where the princess lived. They saw a dozen guards busy loading buckets of water, vegetables, dried meat, etc. into the back storage box of the carriage. Indeed, there was no jam.
Brent couldn't help but be a little disappointed.
Chris explained: "I attached a space ring to the princess, and all the jam sold is stored in the ring."
"Tch." Plato said with a look of disbelief, "Can your so-called jam catch the eyes of Her Highness the Princess?"
"Then just look at it." Chris didn't bother to argue with him.
Soon, more than a hundred people gathered in front of the princess's villa.
Basically all the famous people in Mote City are here.
Chris and Brent Plato were inconspicuous among the crowd.
Not long after, the princess came out in a plain gauze dress and was helped to the carriage by Kenzat.
She smiled and waved to everyone, glanced around the crowd, her eyes stayed on Chris for a moment longer, then turned and entered the carriage.
Plato's body was shocked. He really saw a space ring on the princess's delicate jade finger.
How can this be?
Even the three viscounts have not brokered business with the princess. As a young country baron, Chris, does he have the opportunity to have close contact with the princess?
Perhaps, the princess was already wearing it, but she didn't notice it when she came last time.
Plato could only comfort himself in this way, and glanced at Chris lightly from the corner of his eye.
Three white horses pulled the carriage slowly toward the city gate.
Chris and his entourage sent the princess outside the city gate.
"Goodbye, Your Highness, Princess."
"Goodbye!" The princess poked her head out of the carriage and waved.
It wasn't until the carriage disappeared from sight that the nobles of Mote City dispersed one after another.
"Phew - it's finally over." Chris breathed a sigh of relief. The shops couldn't open in the past few days, which delayed him from earning reputation.
At this time, Jonathan and the others should lead people this way.
Chris was about to go back to his shop, but unexpectedly, Yunado grabbed him and said seriously: "Chris, come to the Viscount Mansion, I have something to tell you."
Seeing his father's serious look, Chris knew that this time things were not simple.
He followed Leonardo to the Vicomte House and entered his father's study.
The entire study is very spacious, about thirty to forty square meters.
There is a row of bookshelves at the back, filled with books.
Leonardo sat down behind the desk and said calmly: "Sit."
Chris brought a chair and sat in front of his father.
In the memory of the previous life, it had been a long time since the father and son had such a serious conversation face to face.
The last time was more than half a year ago, when Chris was knighted.
Yunaduo said straight to the point: "I want to take you to participate in the development order in June. What do you think?"
Chris nodded and said, "Listen to your father."
The so-called pioneering order means that several surrounding countries send knights and nobles to plunder the territory, population, property, etc. of the weakest country until the country is destroyed.
Of course, the country that was robbed can definitely fight back.
The knights who participated in the pioneering order did not care about life or death.
This is how the Shadow Leopard Kingdom perished back then, and now the target of being plundered is the Iron Rhinoceros Kingdom.
It's a bit similar to the fairy tale that Crich saw in his previous life: a group of small animals fell into a trap, and the weakest one became everyone's food, one animal a day, eating rabbits today and lambs tomorrow.
The pioneering order starts at the beginning of June and ends at the end of July every year, lasting two months.
Normally, nobles would bring their second sons to participate in the event to earn meritorious service in order to obtain a higher title.
If something unexpected happens, the eldest son who stays at home can directly inherit the title.
In previous years, because Chris had not awakened his fighting spirit, Yunado went alone.
Yunado looked at the tall son in front of him and said: "After this development order, I will use my previous achievements and give you the title of viscount."
"Father, aren't you preparing to be promoted to earl?" Chris was a little surprised.
Yunaduo shook his head and said: "Based on my ability, I'm afraid I won't be able to be promoted to earl in this life. Brent only has the ability to maintain his status, and he can barely maintain his position as viscount. But you are different. I will follow you
I see unlimited potential in you, maybe in the not-too-distant future, you can become an earl, a marquis, or even a duke."
Chris had no idea that his father would think so highly of him.
Yunado pointed to a wooden box next to the wall and said: "The magic crystal in there belongs to you. Take it back and use it well. Try to upgrade the magician level to the second level within a month. The knight level requires polishing the body with fighting spirit.
, you can’t improve quickly in a short period of time, so I can only help you get here.”
Chris walked over and opened the wooden box. Inside was full of purple crystal stones the size of goose eggs, with a gleaming surface.
Magic crystals are expensive, each one costs ten silver coins. There are about three hundred in this box, with a total value of about thirty gold coins.
Even compared to the Viscount family, thirty gold coins is not a small amount.
This time, Yunado spent a lot of money.
"Father." Chris raised his head, "I am now a second-level magic warrior."
