Marquis Balan showed no resistance like a marionette. She left under the leadership of Kaya and went to the courtyard to learn driving. A group of female guards seemed to want to stop him, but due to Duke Kawei's glance, they did not dare to do anything beyond the rules except for some small actions. In the end, a group of people chased him out with cheers and cheers, following Marquis Balan.
When Grand Duke Kawei retracted his sharp gaze and turned his head, he saw the doubtful eyes of a certain magician. The old man said calmly, "Xiao Gai, you seem to have a lot of questions to ask."
"Oh, can you tell, sir? I thought I couldn't express any expression on my face." Lin was still touching the cheek, which was almost like a skeleton and had no flesh at all.
"Although you have no expression, it can still be seen from your eyes. So if you want to ask, just ask." Mr. Kawei said with a certain consciousness.
"With your power and wealth, if you want to teach your family what knowledge you want, even if there is no one inside to guide you, you can still hire a tutor or the like. Or you can ask a trusted retainer to learn it first and then come back to teach it. Even if it is a female There are many ways for family members to operate, there is no need to send people to your door, just ask others to teach you." Lin said bluntly.
"Indeed, this is true under normal circumstances. But my granddaughter is a little different." The old man said helplessly.
"What's different? If there's anything I need to pay attention to, please just tell me." Lin said.
Kaweigong thought about it and realized that it was indeed the case. It's better than committing some taboo without knowing it. "Actually, this child was not like this when she was a child. Although she was not like those naughty children at that time, she was also lively, talkative, and liked to pester people. But since her parents passed away due to an accident, she has become She doesn't like to talk and rarely even leaves her room. Even servants can't enter her room unless necessary.──"
What a familiar and enviable life this is! By the way, are there also otaku nobles in Lost Land? someone thought to himself.
"─Of course, those ladies who specialize in being matchmakers for nobles are also not allowed in. I am worried about this. Even if I give her the most beautiful territory, she has no idea of going there to see it. Since the forum you created, I have finally been able to communicate with this child. But most of the time, she is still unwilling to talk to outsiders. It was not until I got a car that I learned from her words on the forum, When she saw something, she wanted to take a look at the clues outside. But the premise is that it can be a closed space and no one can see her. "
"What about her?" Although Lin didn't finish the sentence, the implication was that she was squatting at home, why did she run out again?
Mr. Kaweigong understood the meaning behind the words and explained, "In the beginning, her idea of driving a car was not so strong. But since car No. 1 was almost completed, I gave her the design and various parameters, as well as the appearance and interior decoration. pictures, it became more and more obvious that she wanted to drive the car herself. So I wanted to take this opportunity to tell her that if she wants to learn how to drive, she has to come to you and let her leave that room. . The result is also very satisfying. I have finally seen her in person again after not seeing her for several years. Before, I could only hear her voice at most."
"In other words, I am just fishing bait here." Lin said.
"Yes, it tastes pretty good. Otherwise, how could that little fish take the bait?" Kaweigong said with satisfaction.
A noncommittal shrug. There's no need to feel offended by such a harmless little use. However, Lin was still confused by the situation and asked, "What's going on with those women?"
"Are you referring to the group of women from the Black Veil Army?"
Lin also knew a little about the term 'Black Veil Army'. So he was startled and asked, "Isn't that your emperor's man? Do you dare to use it?"
"Strictly speaking, the black veil army composed of noble women is not the emperor's people. The emperor only selected the best (1000) people to protect the female relatives of his harem. The remaining people are full-time guards who are in need and provide them with Noble women who make requests, or requests made by family members. Of course, the price is high. When war breaks out, they will gather together, form an independent army, and join the battlefield. And after my youngest son died unexpectedly, the child's temperament changed drastically. After that, I made a request for a team to protect the child. On the one hand, I also hoped that she could have friends of the same gender and get out of the gloom. But it seems that it didn't work."
The old man's words revealed a lot of information. Including that he may suspect that the cause of his son's death was not pure, otherwise why would he protect his granddaughter. However, Lin would not inquire in depth about this kind of family matter, but there were still other things to talk about. Then he said, "I thought that group of women were composed of women from your vassal family. It turns out not to be the case."
Duke Kawei smiled and said, "If you are my vassal, and I tell you that my family needs protection, I will send you a female family member who is good at martial arts. Are you willing? If that emperor dares to say this to me, If so, I will lead my soldiers and horses to greet him. Do you still have a normal part of your mind? The Black Veil Army is similar to a non-commissioned officer school for noble men, except that all the members are women. As long as it is not in wartime, even if the army is not established, Even the military affairs department of the empire has no control over that place. In such a peaceful era, rather than considering the military strength of this group of women, it is better to consider their political strength. After all, the people they come into contact with are all the family members of high-ranking officials."
"It sounds like you have two systems operating." Lin commented.
"Two systems?" Mr. Kawei couldn't understand the terminology of the magician in front of him. But after thinking about it carefully, I had some taste and said, "It is indeed true. Whether it is politics or military, the places where women in the Black Veil Army can play a role are different from men. But in the empire, they dominate everything It’s still a man.”
Lin didn't have much criticism of the old man's conclusion. But when the pillow blowing method can influence the men who mainly control the political power, can they still maintain their purity?
Whatever. It's none of your business, just hang it up high. Lin only hopes that the political structure of these two teams will not have any impact on him. But looking at the arrogant looks of these women, Lin was a little unsure about the extravagant hopes in his heart.
However, Mr. Kaweigong, an old man, seemed not to want to talk more about the topic of the Black Veil Army. Maybe it's fear, or maybe there's something important you want to mention. He put on a friendly and kind smile again and said, "Let's not talk about those women. Let me tell you, Xiao Gai, since you have mastered a new skill, haven't you thought about making good use of it?"
The topic suddenly took a turn, and Lin couldn't figure it out for a while. He frowned and asked, "New skills?"
"You don't know how amazing this news is about the enchanted silk robe. And the other three are wearing such exquisite clothes. I don't know how many people came to the door, in order to get through me and You got in touch. Ahanu also reported that he had extended an invitation to you to cooperate, but you didn’t agree. So I came.”
Seeing the confident look of the old man in front of him, Lin could only smile helplessly and asked, "Sir, from your perspective, how strong do you think this robe is as a magical equipment?"
Kawei said calmly, "It's unfathomable. I am not considered weak among warriors, and I have quite a lot of experience in dealing with magicians. But the magic equipment can absorb all my senses and prevent me from getting any feedback." , this is the first one. This is an incredible thing, because it means that when we have a conflict, I will face your attack without knowing anything. This is quite fatal in a close battle. Not to mention the incompetent nobles who just want to save their lives and wear beautiful clothes, even those practical warriors or magicians are very interested in this enchanted silk. "
"Then Grand Duke, do you think it is easy to make this outfit?"
Duke Kawei's expression froze and he asked, "Hmm, is it difficult? You made four sets of similar magic equipment in a row."
"Leave aside the question of whether it is difficult to make. Sir, do you think the materials needed to make a set of clothes are easy to obtain?"
"Hmm~, aren't they those little bugs you raised?"
Lin still did not answer directly, but continued to ask, "Put aside the production and materials. Sir, how much do you think such a set of magic equipment is worth?"
"Well~, everything has a price, everyone can agree on this. Xiao Gai, how much do you think is appropriate?" Kaweigong asked.
Lin revealed, "Sir, to be honest, Fen did trade a set of magic equipment made of silk."
When he heard that there was a possibility, Duke Kawei's eyes lit up and he asked, "Oh, how much did the buyer spend, 0) Kir?"
"No, it's an agreement in the transaction. An agreement that even I can hardly refuse." Someone continued to break the news.
An old man said proudly, "Haha, it's just an agreement. There's nothing I can't do in this world, just say it. Don't say one, I can promise you ten."
"The other party agreed that Fen could borrow the energy pool of the magic tower to hold a ceremony."
Someone revealed the answer to the mystery, which made the originally confident old man's smile freeze, and the corner of his mouth twitched as he asked, "Do you know who the person you are trading with is?"
"The owner of Tower V, Dharma Saint Mahatab."
As soon as he heard the name, Duke Kawei immediately pouted, his face wrinkled like a chrysanthemum. Seriously, this guy is a distant relative of Ricardo Carvey. When he first met her, he treated himself like a younger brother. Even if he lived to this age, he would still be his younger brother in front of her. I really can’t afford to offend him.
Regardless of competing with that person, Grand Duke Kawei also wanted to know if he had any alternative means to fulfill the other party's conditions. Then he asked, "Can I ask what kind of ceremony is going to be held?"
"A lich needs to use the energy pool of the magic tower, so he can't just summon a small skeleton. Anyway, I can be sure of one thing, which cannot be measured with money. Of course, your Excellency is willing to help me build a magic tower. As for the tower, let alone one set specially made for you, I will also promise you ten sets."
There is a small tacit understanding among the nobles that they will not help the magician build the tower if he can. Because as long as the magic tower is built, it will be as if you have sealed a hereditary noble. Not only has his territory become smaller, but it is also difficult to regain it with various strategies. So when faced with a certain magician's conditions, Grand Duke Kawei could only smile dryly.
