After about three months of training, these new recruits will look a bit like soldiers. If they train for the first half of the year, plus a certain amount of small-scale combat training, these new recruits will quickly transform into qualified veterans. wWw,QUanbEn-xIAoShUo,CoM
In any case, Enzo has now become the leader of the young generals of the Gallic Empire, with ten legions of troops directly under his command. This makes Marshal Behan and other veteran generals much inferior, both in terms of influence and real power. No one in the Gallic Empire could compare with Enzo.
And Lin Qi is sitting in Borelli, and there is also a big hard-working spider, constantly spinning out silk threads, weaving his network of influence in the Gallic Empire getting bigger and bigger, getting tougher, and getting more and more secretive and covert. .
After more than a month of leisurely wandering in Bureilly, the weather has turned a bit warmer. The raging cold wind has disappeared, and the heavy snow has also disappeared without a trace. The blizzard that has shrouded the western continent for more than three months has finally worn out. The last bit of strength. The earth began to thaw, and black soil was exposed in the fields. The dark clouds in the sky gradually dispersed, and there would be sunny days from time to time.
Sitting in a century-old restaurant in the Burelli business district, Lin Qi was enjoying the strong rum and tasting the fragrant piece of magic whale meat in front of him. Yu Lian was wearing the uniform of the tax chief, and she was thoughtfully holding her chin on the tip of her cane, looking through the floor-to-ceiling windows at the girl in gorgeous clothes holding a parasol outside the window.
"Spring is coming!" Yu Lian suddenly said in a confused manner.
"Yes, the girls on the street have to put on thin breast-revealing dresses again." Lin Qi sighed deeply.
"Back then, we often squatted on the street and watched the aristocratic girls drooling on the road!" Yu Lian raised her glass and drank it all in one gulp.
"Are you still drooling over them now?" Lin Qi ate the piece of magic whale meat in two mouthfuls, and then gave Yu Lian a glass of wine: "To be honest, think about it and find someone If a woman from a good family gets married, if you want to revitalize your family, you must have more children!"
"As a legally recognized wife, find a few girls with good families and reliable conduct to give you more children!" Lin Qi looked at Yu Lian seriously: "This will not delay your future. Lord Lian is looking for flowers and willows, right?"
"Revitalize the family!" Yu Lian flicked her face thoughtfully: "Then, my tax chief's officer is too young!"
"I'm talking about your marriage, Yu Lian!" Lin Qi put down the wine glass and stared at Yu Lian blankly.
"I'm talking about my official position, boss!" Yu Lian lay on the table and looked at Lin Qi pitifully.
Lin Qi rolled his eyes helplessly, exhaled heavily, and said in a deep voice: "I will speed up the construction progress of the Theater of the Gods and strive to officially start operating it within three months. I will pay you the dues then. With a large amount of tax money and my operation, you can go out and gain connections by yourself, and by the way, you can put a blame on the current Imperial Finance Minister."
"Imperial Minister of Finance!" Yu Lian's eyes suddenly lit up: "That is an important minister of the Empire, can I do it?"
Lin Qi gently knocked on the table: "If it were a peaceful era, it would be difficult. But now is a war period. If our finance minister and his deputies suddenly break out into a bad scandal, or are even suspected of colluding with foreign races, Then we need a good minister who is loyal and reliable and can bring huge profits to the empire to take charge of this position in the future."
"The minister of finance during the war must have a good relationship with the military generals in order to be qualified!" Lin Qi looked at the overjoyed Yu Lian and smiled: "So recently, in public, do you want to interact more with our Ent? General Malte Let’s exchange feelings!”
"I will! Boss!" Yu Lian raised his wine glass, and after clinking the glasses with Lin Qi, he smiled and saluted Lin Qi, stood up with pink eyes, and He had to rush to get close to a beautiful girl who happened to be passing by the restaurant outside the door.
Lin Qi grabbed Yu Lian's sleeve: "Where is Eloise?"
Yu Lian touched his nose and said in surprise: "Ellos? Ah, yes, she told me the day before yesterday that her family held an annual clan meeting to discuss some important family affairs, so she had brought With the maids and guards, we temporarily left Borelli!"
Shrugging her shoulders, Yu Lian sighed in a low voice: "So, boss, I have been very empty and lonely at night these two days. I must find a lovely person who can fill my emptiness and loneliness. The person who just passed by That girl is nice, I think I can have something happen with her!"
Lin Qi narrowed his eyes: "Did she say where she went?"
Yu Lian smiled triumphantly: "My charm is unmatched, dear boss. Eloise told me that she will probably leave for a while this time. If I miss her, I will give her to the Haran Empire." If I write a letter to Silver Snow Ding Tulip Manor in Pothos Province, she will receive my love!"
Lin Qi loosened Yu Lian's sleeves, and Yu Lian adjusted the tax chief's uniform, especially the half-length cape behind her, and proudly posed in a chic pose: "How do you think? Not bad, right?" ? It’s full of destructive power towards those young girls, isn’t it? That girl just now fits very well with what you said about a well-off family and good conduct. I’m going to let her give birth to my child!”
Humming a tune triumphantly and walking out the door, Lin Qi rubbed her temples feebly: "Of course, of course, the prerequisite for having a baby for you is to strip naked and go to bed with you, otherwise how can I give birth to a baby for you? ? Damn Yu Lian, I knew it would be like this!"
Turning to look out the window at Yu Lian who was trotting forward, Lin Qi cursed in a low voice: "A good piece of meat fell into the wolf's mouth again!"
After helplessly standing up to pay the bill, and giving the waiter an extra five silver coins as a tip, Lin Qi walked out of the restaurant feeling a little heartbroken. He decided that he would never go to a place where tipping was required when talking to Yu Lian in the future. Why did he have to tip those smiling waiters after he had already paid for his meal
"Should I suggest that our Majesty order the abolition of tips in all high-end restaurants in the empire?" Lin Qi looked forward thoughtfully: "You know, every copper is earned with blood and sweat, but... It didn't happen for no reason, this despicable tipping habit must be curbed."
"Harlan Empire Green Rose Province Silver Snow Top Tulip Manor?" Lin Qi stroked the beard scum on his chin thoughtfully, avoided a rampaging noble carriage, ran across the street with small steps, and walked towards No. 1 Glory Street.
It seems that the annual meeting of the Silver Iris family will be held in the Haran Empire.
Returning to No. 1 Glory Street, she summoned people and entered the underground secret room. When preparing to activate the teleportation magic circle, Esther had already expressed her judgment: "Is Green Rose going to Silver Snow Summit Tulip Manor? So this time the clan members The location of the annual meeting should be within three possible strongholds within two hundred miles of this manor."
The Silver Iris family is a reclusive ancient clan. Their strongholds are distributed throughout the Western Continent, and they even have secret strongholds on many overseas continents and islands. The core of the family is located in the abyss world, and there are not many clansmen stationed in that fundamental place on weekdays. It is not so much the family headquarters as it is the temple where the family worships the Deep Blue Demon King.
The direct members of this huge family are scattered randomly across the mainland on weekdays. The family heads and elders are stationed in several important strongholds to handle corresponding family affairs. Only when something important happens to the family, a stronghold will be temporarily randomly determined, important clan members will be summoned to discuss the family's future phalanx strategy, and at the same time, the clan's authority and power will be re-divided.
During the Battle of the Fourth Abyss, Aerost was killed and the position of family leader became vacant. The Silver Iris family was bound to hold an annual meeting of the clan.
Silver Snow Summit Tulip Manor in Luluo Province is the territory of a small vassal family of the Silver Iris family, but few people know that this small family is a peripheral force used by the Silver Iris family to cover their own whereabouts.
Within two hundred miles of this manor, in three beautiful locations, the Silver Iris family built castles, hunting palaces and manors a long time ago. These places look like places where some nobles occasionally have picnic gatherings. They never People knew that these places would be the property of the Silver Iris family.
If Esther had not been the first heir to the family, she would not have known about the existence of these three strongholds.
If Eloise and Yu Lian weren't so passionate about their relationship, she wouldn't have violated the family's confidentiality rules and told Yu Lian about Silver Snow Summit Tulip Manor as her mailing address, and Esther wouldn't have known about it. , the gathering place designated by the family’s temporary random drawing is here.
After all, these three possible gathering places have not been used by the Silver Iris family for hundreds of years. They are all sleeping strongholds. Even Esther only remembered the address of Silver Snow Summit Tulip Manor. These three secret family properties.
Powerful magic waves rippled in the secret room, and Lin Qi and others stepped into the teleportation magic circle.
When they walked out of the magic circle, they had already arrived in the territory of the Longshan family.
Because of its location in the south, the Vias Commercial Federation warms up faster than the northern countries. In the Longshan territory, there are already birds singing, flowers fragrant, warblers flying, grass growing, and a wonderful scene of early spring. What's surprising is that the air in Longshan Territory is fresher than other places, the flowers are more colorful than other places, and even the young grass that has just sprouted is thicker and greener than other places.
An indescribable vitality permeates the territory of the Longshan family. The faces of the people walking on the streets are a little more bloody than those of the people of the Gallic Empire, and the blood in their bodies is also more vivid than that of the Western Continent. People in other places are much stronger. (To be continued.
