Chapter five hundred and seventy third different city
This is the second time that Mai Enze has set foot on the land of Hanlai Territory.
In just one winter and spring, the adult's village completely changed into a majestic and clean city.
This was almost unrecognizable to Mai Enze.
The reputation of this legendary lord, the master of Hanlai Territory, has spread throughout the royal capital through bards and lackeys or servants of various nobles.
Almost everyone in the Kingdom of Svania knew that the coalition of the two princes was defeated by a Lord named Hansel, and a huge sum of money was paid for the defeat.
This was a huge blow to the reputation of the two princes. The nobles who were originally close to them all seemed to be distant from them, and their evaluations of them were also lowered. They were just short of the word "bastard".
Say it with your mouth.
The two princes are now simply gnashing their teeth at William.
Of course, this is something that the new king Liszt, who has become wiser, is very happy to hear.
William's reputation spread throughout the kingdom.
Commoners are busy with their livelihood and pay little attention to such things, but the nobles are different. Their mocking voices can be heard in pink brothels, luxurious mansions, and hidden secret rooms: even a group of trained people have not
I can't beat the slave for a long time, he is really a useless piece of trash.
The faces of the two princes were swollen, and the rumors pierced their hearts like needles, making him depressed.
They tried to protect their face through conventional methods, but the lawsuit was like nothing in the palace.
This made the two princes realize that their stubborn brother had become different.

…
Mai Enze knew that there were many important people in the royal capital who wanted to meet this legendary lord. It was said that there were already several masquerade balls waiting for the protagonist, and there were also several countesses and marquises.
Woolen cloth.
But the invitation they sent out was found in the garbage dump that night after entering the lord's villa, and there was no response at all.
It's been like this once or twice.
The aristocratic circles of the Kingdom of Slavia were all angry. They used dirty words about the Lord and reached a consensus to exclude him and not accept him into the aristocratic circle.
This legendary Lord doesn't seem to care. He has always been silent about any comments from the outside world and stayed silently in his "kingdom". No one knows what he is doing!
Mai Enze originally thought that this Lord's behavior was seeking his own death. Offending the two former princes might not necessarily cause any problems, but offending the entire aristocratic circle would make it difficult to move forward.
At the very least, in Mai Enze's concept, no one can resist this kind of pressure.
He originally thought, how many days would this legendary Lord last before he would put down his fearless arrogance and kneel down to lick the shoes of those big shots? Is it seven days, ten days, or longer, a month?
Mai Enze didn't know, but now, after seeing the situation in the entire city of Xinnisei, he knew that the answer was never!
He had never seen a city like this:
There is no entry fee to enter the city, but there will be a few cleanly dressed and energetic city guards who will check the goods of the travelers and then let them go.
As soon as you enter this new city, you will see a clean and flat broad avenue.
There are houses of the same style on both sides of the avenue, and the houses have house numbers. Mai Enze has seen this before, so he is not surprised.
It was this avenue that aroused many interests of Mai Enze.
The last time I came here, the ground was still dirt, but now, the road surface is covered with an unknown material. It is very smooth. It looks a bit like stone slabs, but it is different in many ways.
In ordinary towns, the ground is made of compacted soil, which is usually fine. But when it rains, there will be mud everywhere, and when it is windy, the sky will be filled with dust.
But this kind of ground... you don’t have to worry about wind or rain! Mai Enze squatted down and touched the concrete floor with his hands, and came to this conclusion in his heart.
For this alone, I don't know how many lords and nobles are willing to pay the price to obtain this material.
This is why the entire aristocratic circle rejects this legendary Lord, but there is always an endless stream of caravans traveling to and from his territory.
No noble is a fool, they all know what they want!
This unknown material can be used on the ground, but can it be used on city walls and military purposes? As long as you use your imagination, you will find that the potential of this thing is simply unlimited.
However, judging from the current situation, it seems that no big shot has obtained the production formula for this thing.
I wonder when these big shots will lose their patience and switch from covert stealing to overt robbery? Mai Enze sneered in his heart.
Mai Enze understands these guys and knows that these nobles who are usually aloof are actually creatures like jackals, the kind that eat meat without spitting out bones. If you believe that they are people with noble character and noble blood, then please think about yourself first
How much money can be sold!
Mai Enze's eyes swept across this avenue.
This road also has some interesting features, such as it is high in the middle and low on both sides. There is a ditch on both sides, which seems to be used for drainage. If it rains, the water will flow into the ditch when the rain falls.
Inside, the city will not be flooded. This kind of design is really careful. After thinking about this, Mai Enze said silently in his heart.
Suddenly, an impatient voice came from beside him, "Where are you going? The hotel you are staying at is at No. 5 East Second Street. There are stables and big rooms. If you want to conduct transactions, go to No. 19 West First Street.
No., that's the trading center. If you think about it, leave quickly and don't block other people's passage here!"
Mai Enze was stunned for a moment, then realized what he was saying. He looked towards the source of the sound and saw a middle-aged man wearing a city guard uniform with two ugly scars on his face, a deep frown on his face and an unhappy look on his face.
looking at them.
Mai Enze looked back. It turned out that because of his thinking, his caravan blocked most of the road, affecting the passage of people behind. No wonder there were city guards coming out to yell and scold!
Let me mention here that the entire road is very spacious, wider than many cities that Mai Enze has seen. It stands to reason that Mai Enze's small number of people and horses, blocked together, only occupy a small area, completely
It will not affect other people's traffic.
But it's different here, because the entire road is divided into two halves by a long flowerbed, and carriages entering the city can only go on the right side.
That is to say, the carriages entering the city or the carriages leaving the city are not on the same side. Of course, pedestrians are not affected.
Whenever there is a carnival or other grand festival in the capital of Slavia, there will be many carriage accidents.
This can greatly reduce the occurrence of accidents caused by too many carriages. This was Mai Enzer's first thought when he discovered this situation.
Just the street where the city gate is located gave Mai Enze so many surprises! He became more and more interested in this legendary Lord.

"I'm sorry for causing trouble to your work, we'll leave immediately." Mai Enze naturally smiled on his face, approached the city guard, and said to him, while quietly stuffing something into his hand.
The city guard looked at the things in his hands, nodded slightly, and then said one more thing to Mai Enze, "You took so much goods? The hotel couldn't fit it in, so we ended up renting a warehouse at No. 85 East Second Street.
, this is more convenient, you can go directly to the trading center through several alleys, and it is also convenient for you to conduct transactions."
"Thank you! Thank you!" Mai Enze said repeatedly, the money was well spent, and then he led a whole caravan towards the location mentioned by the city guard.

…
In the territory of Prince Charles, in a dark room in the Castle of Mande.
Prince Charles and Prince Ferret each sat on a high chair, and darkness swallowed most of their bodies.
And in front of them, there was an ugly woman who was thin but unusually tall, like a bamboo pole.
Half of the ugly woman's cheeks looked normal, and the other half had toad-like sores on her cheeks. She looked very hideous.
But looking at her appearance, her face was very calm.
Prince Charles was the most impatient. He spoke first and asked the ugly woman, "Are you ready?"
"I've been waiting for your orders, my lords." The ugly woman's voice was as unpleasant as sand.
"Okay! As long as we achieve our goal, we will never give you less of what you want! Your brother will also become my vassal and share the glory with our family from generation to generation." Charlie
Prince Si said.
"I will definitely not disappoint you!" A disgusting smile appeared on the ugly woman's face, and she said, "Then, you two adults, I will go back and prepare first."
"Go." Prince Charles waved his hand, the ugly woman covered her veil and left quietly through the back door.
The room fell into oppressive silence.
After a while, Prince Feret opened his mouth, with a little worry in his eyes, and said, "Charles, do we really want to do this?"
"Otherwise? Are you willing to accept this result? All the nobles in the entire Svak Kingdom are laughing at us behind our backs. Even the untouchables are saying that we are useless, and we are no match for even a small lord."
"...Charles, you should know that he is definitely not an ordinary lord." Ferret was silent for a moment and said in a serious tone.
"I know. How could an ordinary lord defeat you and my army so easily and make us the laughing stock of the entire Svack Kingdom! If it happened again, would you still be sure to deal with him?" Charles' face twisted and he said fiercely.
Looking at his brother.
It seems that the rumors during this period have made His Royal Highness feel very angry.
"Of course..." Prince Feret's tone rose first and then dropped.
During this period of time, although he and Charles had been promoting that they were not prepared and that Hansel had taken advantage of the sneak attack, in fact... Hansel's ability to fight with ease seemed to have the function of a prophet.
He can always launch a fatal attack on them when they are most relaxed, and then drift away.
Even if they could turn back time and have them fight again, they wouldn't be completely sure.
In other words, the two high-ranking princes were frightened by William. They only dared to roar in a deserted place, but did not dare to face the tiger directly.
However, the anger in his heart could not subside, especially the ridicule from the nobles behind their backs, which only added fuel to the fire.
Both princes dreamed of getting rid of Hansel.
It was impossible at first, until the woman took the initiative to come to the door and told a piece of news.
"Tribe of Giants!"
Yes, there is a kind of dark creature hidden in the wilderness plains that can make the Inquisition of the Lord of Holy Light.
And not just one or two, but a group.
They hide in the wilderness plains, licking their claws silently.
Many people who died in the wilderness plains died at their hands.
Not even the executors of the Inquisition of the Holy Light's Holy Court knew about this situation.
But that ugly woman knew the existence of the giant tribe and knew how to guide the giants.
She came here just to make a deal with the two princes.
Now that she had reached this point, the two princes simply gave up. After thinking about it for a while, they agreed to her request.
only……
"If that woman really attracts the giant tribe in the end, what should we do next?" After thinking for a moment with a frown, Prince Feret suddenly said again.
"I don't know what you are talking about, Feret! I don't know any giant tribe, and I don't know any women? I only know that the Holy Light only favors those who are pious!" Prince Charles suddenly looked sincere.
said.
Ferret was stunned for a moment, then grinned widely, "Charles, you son of a bitch, you are even more sinister than that."
"Hahaha!" Prince Charles also laughed.

The little tailor came to a big mountain. When he reached the top of the mountain, he found a huge giant sitting there, looking around leisurely.
The little tailor bravely walked up to the giant and greeted him: "Hello, buddy. You sit here and look at the big world, right? I'm about to go out into the world. What do you think? Do you want to come with me for a while?
go?"
The giant glanced at him contemptuously and said to him in a loud voice: "You little wretch! You are so weak and weak!"
"Ah ha, you underestimate me, don't you? Look here again!" replied the little tailor. He unbuttoned his shirt and showed his belt to the giant. "You will know what kind of person I am if you think about it.
."
The giant began to read: "Kill seven people at once." It thought that the tailor had killed seven people at once, and it couldn't help but respect the little tailor.
