Everyone has something they are afraid of, and these things have different forms of expression, but the fear itself is the same. For example, some people are afraid of sudden silence.
Du Lin's sudden silence made the air around him become awkward. His eyes fell on his gift, a hard-cover book, or hardcover, wrapped with a beautiful ribbon. He bought this book after leaving the villa at noon. He was not sure what gift to give to the princess of the royal family. Magus had already told him not to buy expensive things, so he chose over and over again and finally decided to give it a book.
He walked around the bookstore several times without deciding which book was best to buy. He also specifically asked the salesperson of the bookstore what book was best to give to a young girl, and the other person recommended this book. Little did he know that the book was an egg book—a hard-boiled egg.
The shell is very hard, but after peeling off the shell, the inside is white, tender, trembling, and slippery. After peeling off this layer of the substance that everyone loves, only the egg yolk is left.
Eggs, and yellow.
The name of this book is "Elegy of the Virgin". He did not read the content. The title of the book gives people endless reverie. This should be a book praising women, and it is very tragic. How could this be an egg book? Book
Du Lin looked at the young man with a strange expression. The young man seemed to have noticed something. He laughed, lowered his head slightly and put his fisted hand against his mouth to prevent himself from being too rude. After seven or eighty seconds, he raised his head and glanced at the book in Dulin's hand. "I have read this book. It tells the story of a female knight..."
This is indeed an egg book. The female knight will never be a real female knight, or the heroine is a female knight in the true sense.
Many people who like literary works are very similar to some people in Dulin's dream world. They like egg books with special identities, female knights, how interesting it sounds. Knights are the embodiment of justice and virtue. I think It’s exciting just to think about it!
Of course, this story is indeed the case. After all, it was created by a literary master who specializes in writing egg books, and was inspired by a certain opera.
The young man briefly introduced the content of the book but not in general. Dulin suddenly felt that the book became heavy.
Think about it, maybe there will be a joke spread in the aristocratic circle of the entire imperial capital tomorrow. At the royal princess's coming-of-age ceremony when she turned sixteen, Du Lin gave her a very eggy egg book. This was a complete accident. The scene was still horrific.
He skillfully tore off the ribbon from the book and threw it into the trash can next to the dining table. He thanked the young man very gratefully. If he hadn't suddenly interrupted, maybe he would have become a new laughing stock tomorrow, giving a sixteen-year-old girl an egg book, even though the girl could be said to be an adult.
"Thank you very much, if it weren't for you..." Dulin shrugged, "I might have to go through a period of torture." He also introduced himself, "Dulin!"
The young man shook his hand and said, "Fast, a little man."
After the two let go of their hands, Fast continued, "I actually know you. Recently, public opinion has been full of news about you, such as the hero Dulin, and the news that you are running for governor."
This is also an atmosphere created by Dulin, a heroic governor. Hersmann connected his heroic image with the governor, giving the public more basis for acceptance.
Everyone loves a hero, so wouldn’t it be more interesting to have a hero as governor? Although politicians all know that this is bullshit, people in the West like these contents and messages.
Worshiping heroes and being a governor are good news points. Coupled with Dulin's success, people will always like him, but at the same time, they will not make people hate him. After all, the development of the west in recent years is well known. Dulin has supported millions of families through agriculture and animal husbandry. The most amazing thing is that he has not gone bankrupt. This is enough to make people look forward to what he will do in the west next. .
Du Lin smiled very reservedly. He pulled the sword collar of his coat with both hands, raised his eyebrows and said with a self-deprecating smile, "People are waiting to see my joke!"
"A joke?" Fast obviously had a different opinion, "Mr. Dühring..."
"You can call me Du Lin. Look, we are all young people and we don't need those complicated processes!"
"Okay." Fast accepted Dulin's kindness. "Actually, I personally think you have a high chance of success. Compared to the South, which values economic ability more, and the North, which values identity and background, in fact, the West It’s very suitable for you. Maybe you haven’t understood that the West has the most heroic stories, but there are even fewer legendary stories about heroic characters in other places.”
This statement surprised Dulin. Fast continued to explain, "The desolation and mysterious background of the West make it easier for heroic deeds to occur there, whether it is an omnipotent police chief or a robber full of justice. , they are all active in the context of the west.
Even today, you can still see some heroes in Western movies. They only need one person and a pistol to defeat a train of enemies. Heroism is a very popular culture in the West, which is exactly in line with your current publicity strategy. You have a good team! "
To be honest, Dulin didn't even know that there was such a thing. His understanding of the west was not thorough enough, mainly because he did not have the time or energy to study the cultural colors of the west. Moreover, he did not go deep into the west of the west. Most of the time, I stayed in the developed western regions that claimed to be the central and southern parts of the empire. The culture in these places was closer to the southern part of the empire, and economy was the mainstream of society. People did not talk about heroism, they only cared about money.
The conversation with Fast made Dulin feel very happy. This young man was different from the older stereotyped nobles. He was good at chatting and knew how to say things that Dulin liked to hear. At least he couldn't. Arrogantly, he thought Dulin was a farmer and did not bother to talk to him in depth.
The two chatted for a while and then stopped when Maggs came over. They exchanged contact information and ended the conversation.
"Do you know that young man?" Magus asked as he looked at Fast's leaving figure.
Du Lin shook his head, "What's wrong with the friend I just met and the person I get along with so easily?"
Magus shook his head, "It's nothing, he is a different kind of person..." Then he quickly interrupted the question and asked instead, "Are you ready for your gift? You will have to hide it from everyone later. Give it to Her Royal Highness the Princess, I suggest you check your things again before you go up!"
Du Lin laughed twice. Mags must not have known what happened just now. "Of course I'm ready. I believe Her Highness the Princess will like it very much."
Mags looked at him deeply and said, "That's good, then I'll feel relieved."
