Who is Anji? Not to mention his prominent family background, he is a powerful silver-level mecha warrior at a young age, and he even studied under the current Navajo King Negus.
For such an important person, what she said, even if it was a casual joke, was like a huge stone dropped into Qiu Lake. When spread outside, it would cause huge waves.
Parkinson was stunned, and Scarlett covered her mouth with her hands, her eyes trembling slightly. Even Hurd, the wealthy boss, was frightened at this moment.
Du Lan, who was accompanying him by the side, had a drastic change in his expression, and his eyes showed disbelief.
Although Countess Anji is famous for her majestic elegance, who is obsessed with her and expects to be favored by her and is still depressed today?
Those people may be the future heirs of marquises and counts, or the young masters in this world who spend a lot of money, or mecha warriors with outstanding talents like her. How can they be a small person at the Green Stone Flower Venue in the Sun District in Qianshan City? Can a mechanic compare?
Especially for Viscount Dulan, who was already unhappy with Tang Lang. The countess said that he was cute, but she would not give him a chance to get close to him. The reason was that he was too old with a bit of joking, but Dulan knew that, For modern humans who do not truly become middle-aged until they are over 50, that is just an excuse.
But, how could this Liu Lang be so virtuous?
As for the senior officials of Green Stone Flower, they are even more afraid of another outcome.
Liu Lang and Anji's one-night romance is nothing to the relatively open folk customs, but they are very likely to encounter an extremely miserable fate in the future, whether they are buried at the bottom of the river, broken into ten thousand pieces, or killed by the countess' admirers. Assassination in an alley...any kind of assassination is an unbearable consequence.
Of course, it is not easy for the small Green Stone Flower Venue to survive alone. It is likely to be unstoppably affected.
Hurd said with a bitter look on his face, "Your Majesty, the earl is too flattering. This is just a small handyman at my venue. I really don't dare to be praised like this by the earl." Then he said seriously: "Liu Lang! Come back soon. You are What kind of status do you have to be qualified to stand beside the Earl!?"
However, before Hurd finished speaking, a faint smile appeared at the corner of Anji's lips: "Why, Your Excellency Baron Hurd, who else do I, Anji, need to ask for permission first?"
This sentence was a bit too harsh, and Hurd's face turned pale with fright, and cold sweat dripped down his forehead, "Don't you dare, Sir Anji, Hurd knows he was wrong!"
"He is Liu Lang, right? He is indeed a lovely man, even his name is so cute." Anji's eyes moved and she chuckled: "Then, he will be my personal valet here."
Everyone looked at each other in shock, their hearts sinking.
"Okay, I'm just kidding you. I just need a local who is familiar with the environment here. Liu Lang is also a pretty handsome kid!" Anji seemed to feel that the purpose of torturing the fragile hearts of these little people around him was already over. When I arrived, I smiled happily and walked forward alone without saying a word.
Hearing the word "joke", everyone was shocked and suspicious, thinking that maybe you thought it was just a joke, but we were almost frightened by this "joke" to the point where our hearts and blood flowed backwards. I think Anji was so famous that she just said this casually. His words shocked them.
In fact, based on Anji's words and seeing her never look at "Liu Lang" again, they would rather believe that Anji was just treating Liu Lang as a servant, and based on her previous "famous name", he could become her guest. , most of them are the top people in the kingdom. Her vision is very high, and not just anyone can catch her eye.
Hurd and Parkinson breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, and Parkinson glared at Tang Lang, who looked innocent, blaming him for being frightened because of such unforeseen circumstances.
Scarlett's heart hanging in her throat was relieved. With Dulan and Hurd leading the way, Anji led the crowd into the venue, with Scarlett following behind. From this angle, she watched Tang Lang, who was following behind the Countess.
silhouette, feeling indescribable disappointment in his heart.
Scarlett was anxious just now because she thought Anji was attracted to Liu Lang, but she also felt vaguely worried, as if something that belonged to her would be taken away. But the thief was a countess with a high status!
It was like she found a beautiful pebble on the beach but she didn't know whether to throw it or keep it. Suddenly, a person appeared next to her and coveted it as if she saw a rare treasure. This inspired her to protect her.
heart of.
But in the end, she discovered that the other party was just making a joke, so she felt disappointed. It turned out that the stone in her hand was still just an ordinary pebble, and could never become a flawless white jade.
This is somewhat similar to her fate. No matter how hard she works, she can only stand out at the Green Stone Flower Festival and cannot be on a broader stage. She is like an ugly duckling in the countryside who can never transform into a graceful white swan.
And Liu Lang, no matter how special he is. Parkinson and Hurd can't bend his back, but in front of the noble earl, he can only lose his self-esteem because he can't go beyond the cruelest class rules in the world.
The sorrow of little people.
However, even though she knew the truth, Scarlett was still a little sad.
Especially when I saw Tang Lang's thin back at this moment, my heart couldn't help but feel a little painful. That man, standing under the autumn sun, holding hands with her and promising her that there would be a new era!
...
Shenying Company had released new products before. It was originally a one-week display of the latest results, but because the civil war in the kingdom finally broke out, the royal capital controlled all materials, resulting in the latest mecha being dragged to
I will show it in the next few days half a month later.
This press conference was unprecedentedly grand.
In addition to the many nobles and large companies in Qianshan City, there are also many famous nobles in the royal capital who come to support me. To use an inappropriate metaphor: Counts are everywhere, and viscounts are worse than dogs!
Because of a new mecha press conference, the number of people gathered in Qianshan City exceeded the usual normal standards, so people were temporarily discussing that this might be related to the current severe domestic situation.
The Eastern Front of the Central Military Region was defeated, and the Restoration Army may soon be approaching the royal capital. Under such huge pressure, the nobles of the Central Military Region will inevitably panic. In the face of the last round of drastic changes in the kingdom, they had already chosen to surrender to the one who controlled the army.
Negus, even if they want to turn back, they will definitely be liquidated afterwards. But before that, they have to ensure that their half-heartedness is not discovered by Negus. Negus, who has a strong personality, is not like the old king.
It's just depriving you of your noble title, which is very likely to destroy your family and annihilate your family, and give the wallflowers a hard time.
Under such circumstances, many people have pinned their hopes on Shenying Company's new mecha product. If this mecha is outstanding enough, and with the Kingdom's Central Military Region concentrating more than 70% of the country's huge manufacturing capacity, it may be able to
In a short period of time, a mecha army that could be used for great purposes was built to block the front of the Restoration Army.
It doesn't matter who is the boss, what matters is that their interests are not damaged, which is a typical mentality of declining and decadent aristocrats.
When a person pursues the necessities of life, he is often diligent and brave; when a person pursues consumer goods, he often becomes lazy and meek; when a person pursues the luxuries of life, this person becomes
Becoming weak. Obviously, this group of nobles in the Navajo Kingdom have no shortage of daily necessities and consumer goods. When such a group of people become the masters of the country, the dusk of the empire will come.
In a sense, the reason why Negus did such an evil thing is probably not just his personal wish, but may also represent more ordinary people. Just like Scarlett, they also look forward to it
The coming of a new era.
There is no doubt that their goal has been achieved. Regardless of whether the restoration of the country is successful or not, a large number of old aristocrats will be replaced and a large number of emerging aristocrats will rise. In this indifferent period of time, it is just the last struggle of these old aristocrats.
That’s all.
So at this time, I don’t know how many pairs of eyes from the outside world are looking at the Green Stone Flower Venue, which is relatively unknown in the kingdom.
As more and more heavyweights gathered here, Hurd was in a state of excitement from the inside out. The last time he felt like every cell in his body was burning, he was probably seventeen years old.
When he fell in love with that promiscuous woman, he knew that no matter how this gathering ended, it would eventually make the Green Stone Flower Venue famous. They were the ultimate beneficiaries.
Maybe it won't necessarily bring Hurd to the top of his life.
Prominent people from all walks of life gathered in the banquet hall of the venue, but in terms of scenery, no one could surpass Countess Anji, who represented the King of Negus, and the Marquis City Lord, the first person in Qianshan City. The hall was full of stars.
However, because of their dazzling appearance, no one paid attention to the "manservant" who had been following them with a sullen face that made it difficult to see.
However, Tang Lang felt that he was not being stared at all the time. He pretended to look at the source casually. When he saw Scarlett, who was dressed like a water lotus with thin make-up, he quickly turned away the pair of bright pupils that were lingering on him.
Move away and interact with the people next to you as if nothing has happened.
Tang Lang sighed secretly in his heart, but at this moment, he suddenly felt a very sharp and hostile gaze piercing his back. He turned around, and happened to meet the man in a windbreaker with thick hair who wanted to become a "super racer" at any time.
There is no problem with the man's gaze.
That is Viscount Touraine.
Dulan was stunned for a moment when he discovered that Tang Lang was so sensitive to the hostility in his eyes, but then his eyes became bright.
He had no doubts about Tang Lang's true identity, but of course after seeing Scarlett holding hands with him, he used the energy in his hands to dig deep into Tang Lang, knowing that this "Liu Lang" also
He is not an ordinary person, he is a genius in machine repair, and he also makes a lot of money from mecha models.
However, when it comes to mechanics' talents, he sneers. What's the use of talents? The advanced knowledge in this world is in the hands of the upper class. Now every famous mecha warrior with silver level or above and the maintenance technicians under him are all
There are several teams that rotate, and without exception these people are all from the Mecha Academy, the highest palace in the Navajo Kingdom. They have received the most rigorous and professional education, and have the deepest understanding of mechanical engineering, no
He grew up in a small place and could make up for it with a little talent.
Erqi Dulan also knew a small detail. The boy actually bought a shabby mecha and dreamed of becoming a mecha warrior!
Originally, as Dulan, there was no need to care about such a small person, but Scarlett was the one he was determined to win. He didn't mind destroying this boy's shallow and vague ideals and telling him what the world was like.
Reality.
That is, this wandering boy will never become a real mecha warrior.
If you don’t have a matching identity, but you want to get a noble swan, you must pay the price!
