When the steam train entered Muwan County, the surrounding air became obviously much fresher.
Haina opened the window and took a deep breath of the fresh air of her hometown.
——It has to be Muwan County!
As a child, Haina had no understanding of her hometown.
At that time, she still regarded the beautiful gem-like clear water, blue sky, and lush forests as a natural part of her life.
And when she entered the glass island for the first time, she was shocked by the prosperity.
She entered the glass island from the metropolitan area and felt a kind of awe from the bottom of her heart when she looked at the majestic factories one after another, the dense flow of people, and even more than two trains that could appear in her field of vision at the same time.
People on the street were wearing fashionable clothes that she had never seen before. There were knights in armor everywhere on the street and in the sky. You could even see a circus passing by, magicians and singers performing on the streets, and that building.
A huge, sacred and solemn church...
Busy and full of life, crowded but orderly.
But after staying for a long time, Haina will miss home again.
She will miss the blue sky and fresh air at home - unlike the glass island, which is half foggy and half smelly of the sea. Only the Red and White Queen is slightly better, but only a little better.
Although there are many more entertainments on Glass Island than in Muwan County, she doesn't go out anyway. So doesn't it mean that these entertainments don't exist at all?
In this case, for her, Glass Island is indeed not as fun as Muwan County!
"I thought young people like Miss Haina would prefer glass islands."
Yeats, who was sitting opposite Haina, said with a smile: "Resorts like Muwan County are usually visited by middle-aged nobles who like fishing and horseback riding."
——That’s weird.
Haina gnawed on the cold pie in her arms, drank from the metal flask that Meg had given her, and subconsciously rolled her eyes.
There are various entertainment projects on Glass Island, ranging from safe to unsafe, from conservative to extreme, from perverted to not perverted. Young people like it, and middle-aged people also like it.
"It's not just middle-aged people who come to Muwan County to travel..."
Feeling that it was impolite to roll her eyes, Haina added and explained: "And I don't like going out to play on the Glass Island."
Haina usually huddles in the dormitory, not entirely because she is too lazy to move or has no money. It is because she is really not interested in those entertainments.
Although she did have no money, as the leader, she could easily borrow a large amount of money from her classmates who came from a business family - of course, the kind that did not have to be repaid.
This is very normal, even quite common.
Not all knight families are necessarily rich, not to mention that there are many priests and ordinary people among the students.
Being named a knight can only mean that there was a nationally famous and outstanding ancestor in the past four hundred years, but as long as the age is slightly older, most of the accumulated connections have been exhausted.
All that's left is a set of family-heirloom armor, personally awarded by the king or queen, allowing them to enter the Round Table Hall. But that's all.
The reason why Lloyd's Club could not be eliminated before was because these knights accepted their sponsorship.
Compared with providing sponsorship to knights, it couldn't be easier to please these good students who have not yet been exposed to society and most likely have only school experience. It only takes much less money to get a job that will last for many years.
Friendship, and favors that never know when they will be repaid.
This is a very high-quality investment. As long as you cast a wide net, you can basically guarantee a profit——
Wangli Law University basically controls all mainstream talents except the military system, the Academy of Engineering and the Academy of Sciences.
Civil servants in the Supervisory Bureau, Inspectorate, Law Courts, Churches, including trade, diplomacy and other important government departments are also given priority in recruiting people from Wangli University of Law.
This also includes those hired lawyers who have not joined the law court, low-level priests who have not passed the church examination but still mastered the art of illumination, and civilian scholars who are in urgent need of sponsorship to support research.
These are all valuable talents. And they can all be easily recruited at the student stage.
Even if they are really screened out, it does not mean that they are incompetent, it only means that the same class is too good. As long as they are diligent in picking up the omissions, there is always a chance to deliver.
Those clubs one after another exist just for this situation. Students have a lot of social needs, and they can get a piece of it.
As long as Haina nods, not only will her life no longer be difficult, but she will even be able to live a luxurious life without any scruples.
And all this does not require her to make any commitments. As long as she maintains a friendly attitude, she can relax and enjoy it - for a person who has been exposed to the extraordinary path from scratch at the age of eighteen and can reach the third level at the age of twenty.
As far as talented geniuses are concerned, there are many people who want to send money.
——You still dare to make demands? Then you can stay behind. You won’t be able to lick it in the future.
"Oh why?"
Yeats was a little confused and curious: "Miss Haina is so beautiful...and she must have good grades. Isn't there any suitor around her?"
"Yes, there are some, and quite a few. But I drove them all away."
Haina told frankly.
Although Haina is naive...she is not stupid.
Although she didn't know what the price of all this would be, Haina resolutely refused all temptations.
This is not to say that she is a born saint - it is better to say that she is actually very greedy for those little cuties printed with red candles and silver crowns.
Every time she refused temptation, she would roll around in regret on the bed for a long time. But after regretting it, she would still stubbornly refuse temptation next time.
the reason is simple.
That's actually just because she's cautious enough for some reason.
Haina knew that she was a village girl from a small place. She had a low opinion of herself and was very conservative.
Although she is good at studying and taking exams, and is very sensitive to the power of the Tao, she is not that smart after all, and has no knowledge or experience. So she does not know what these things mean, nor does she know the price of these advantages.
She just insists on an extremely simple concept——
No good thing comes for free, everything must have a price. And it is very likely that she will not be able to pay that price and will lose more.
Businessmen are extremely smart, even cunning. The fact that they can make money shows that they have a flexible brain - and Haina knows that her brain is not good, so she can't play with them.
So she simply refused to interact with these businessmen and smart people.
As long as she has no deep friendship at all and refuses all proposals and gifts, she will definitely not be fooled.
At that time, she was annoyed by various social requests, but she couldn't tell the difference, so she applied for an early internship. After leaving school, she immediately calmed down. When people saw her, they immediately thought of
It’s also “Haina Supervisor” instead of “Haina Chief”.
Even her best friend, Haina, couldn't tell whether it was sent by someone from any faction, and she wasn't sure whether they had been bribed. Therefore, Haina didn't dare to listen to their suggestions and opinions.
.
The political situation in the kingdom is very complicated. Haina cannot understand it at all.
So she doesn't take sides at all, she just wants to be a useless person who has no achievements and no faults. As long as she can just live like a waste.
But it was precisely because of her attitude that Meg accepted her as her apprentice.
"What about you?"
Haina didn't want to continue talking about herself, so she changed the subject abruptly: "Are you here for a trip? Is your fishing gear in that big bag?"
Because if she told the truth, Haina was worried that the other party would suspect her of bragging; and if she showed evidence to the other party, it would leak her own information. When she realized that she could no longer continue, Haina directly
Choose not to answer.
This is her style.
If you don’t understand, just watch. If you don’t understand, just shut up. If you can’t do it, don’t do it!
Facing Haina's inquiry, Yeats just smiled: "I'm going home too."
"Eh?"
Haina was stunned for a moment: "Where are you from?"
"I am from Bagpipe Town," Yeats replied.
As he spoke, the bottom of his pupils shone slightly with a red light.
"What a coincidence, I'm from Yingjia Village!"
Haina immediately became energetic: "We are quite close, we are both terminals!"
Hearing that the two of them had the same destination this time, the terminal, Haina immediately took off her guard and became very happy.
She asked: "Where are you from Bagpipe Town?"
But Yeats just smiled and shook his head without answering.
Only then did Haina realize that she was too excited, so she took the initiative to explain: "When I was a child, I studied in Bagpipe Town for several years - do you know "The Cow and the Harbor"?"
"Niuwan News, I've been reading it since I was a child."
Yeats answered easily.
This is indeed a local name.
My former neighbor’s grandfather was the editor-in-chief of "Cow and Harbor"——
Haina originally wanted to say this.
But her spiritual intuition suddenly made her pause - because she felt that it was too easy to position herself, and it would not be good to tell strangers.
So Haina swallowed the words as soon as they came to her lips.
She turned to ask: "Do you work on the glass island?"
Seeing that Haina did not continue speaking, Yeats seemed to be slightly surprised.
He raised his eyebrows and glanced at Haina in surprise.
I only slept for three hours last night... In total, I slept for ten hours in the past three days. I feel like I'm getting closer.
I’ll order takeout first, there will be a second chapter, I’ll post it later——
