"By the way, there's one more thing." After talking about dinner, Zhu Xianfen suddenly sent another message:
"Have you met Victoria?"
"Victoria?" Shangluo thought for a while, "Which Victoria?"
"Emperor Augustus of Rome should be a little older than you now. The last time I saw her was five or six years ago, and I may not remember it now. Did she say anything to you?"
"Uh no."
"What about her father? Emperor Agathocles should be the deputy emperor now. After he abdicated to his daughter, he became the deputy emperor. Now he is responsible for managing general and specific affairs. You have met him. He is a middle-aged man in his forties or fifties, with short hair. He should be wearing a purple embroidered gold toga robe. He ordered it at the Inner Weaving Bureau in Jiangning. I remember that he always wears that whether in public or in private. Wearing a purple robe.”
"No." He had indeed never seen such a specific feature. He had seen people wearing other togas. For example, Mayor Kelso also wore a toga, but it was worn as a formal attire for Roman citizens and was used to receive guests. He had never seen anyone wear such an exaggerated outfit like a purple embroidered gold toga.
Zhu Xianfen on the opposite side paused for a while.
"They sent a very important letter of credence."
"Is it a good thing?"
"It can be considered a good thing. But nothing is the best. Anyway, let's wait and see together when you come back. By the way, I want to ask you what happened. See you later."
"See you."
Shangluo closed the chat thread with Zhu Xianfen, and just as he was about to put down his phone, he suddenly glanced at the discussion group for this operation - there were dozens of new messages in one night, and they were all in red!
Click to take a look.
Han Xingzhi opened the battle "Tetris". Wen Yuan joins the battle.
Han Xingzhi opened the battle "Snowman Brothers and Sisters".
Han Xingzhi opens the battle "Alloy Egghead".
Han Xingzhi opens the battle "cat and mouse".
Two portraits of Wang Lingguan, one black and one white, were painted there all night, and dozens of games were played. The most recent one was at 7:10, which was just now.
Shangluo glanced to the side. Wen Yuan, who was sleeping in the next bed, was leaning on the pillow, rubbing the jade tablet in his hand. His eyes were bloodshot, and his face was full of fairy spirit.
"What are you two doing???" He waved his hand in front of Wen Yuan, who looked up at him.
"What are you doing?" Wen Yuan suddenly sat up when he caught a glimpse of the sunshine outside the window, "(*Jinling Yayan*) It's dawn! It's dawn!"
"Huh?" Han Xingzhi next to him suddenly raised his head, "How come it's dawn so soon? We've just started playing."
"Ha" Lu Liang, who had already gotten up long ago, sat on a chair and shook the juice glass in his hand. Being self-disciplined, she got up the earliest and even finished her breakfast.
"What time is it now?" Wen Yuan shook his head.
"7:10." Lu Liang reported the time, "It doesn't matter, you continue to play, it's still early. If you keep playing, you will become an immortal in no time. You don't need to practice immortality at all. How convenient."
Wen Yuan punched himself twice on the head to wake himself up before asking Lu Liang: "Where is your father?"
"I went to have breakfast with the captain outside."
"He didn't ask about me, did he?"
"When he woke up in the morning and saw you two concentrating on rubbing the glass, he sneered and went out. He didn't say anything."
"What should we do?" Han Xingzhi looked at him, "How about continuing?"
"Continue." The two of them lay down on the pillows and continued rubbing the glass. Anyway, I have nothing to do today.
Shangluofang looked at the ceiling and saw that he really had nothing to do today. As a "busy man", it's rare for him to have a free day today.
"Steal a day of leisure", this is also the slogan he saw in the brochure of Lanfang Airlines. As the name suggests, today is a day of leisure, which can be regarded as leisure during the journey.
This day is very particular. Really busy people don't have time to take long-distance routes like ocean cruises that last for a week or even ten or twenty days. The rest time on airplane flights is often too short to make up for enough time, and it is difficult to completely relax in the cramped space on the airplane. Hercules 3 fills the gap between cruise lines and air travel, providing leisure time that is neither too long nor too short for just one day.
This day is arranged in the Nanyang metropolis "Xingzhou". Xingzhou is named after the Sanskrit "Sihapura", transliterated as Sinhapura or Xingjiapo, and literally translated as Lion City. Temasek Company, which was the first to colonize Sin Chau, was the same veteran colonial company that went to Southeast Asia as the Lan Fong Company - Temasek was another translation used during the Yongle period, which means "water town". Now Temasek has been merged into a subsidiary of Lanfang.
Looking out from the window, Shangluo can see the urban area of Xingzhou City. The part close to Changi Airport is the classic Nanyang Old Street, which is characterized by its arcades. The sidewalk is not exposed to the sun, and there is a protruding building above it that rides on the sidewalk to provide shade, and at the same time, the first floor is opened up as a storefront along the street. This structure was further extended in modern times as a gallery.
In the distance of the sprawling old town, far away from Changi Airport, are the skyscrapers of Sin Chew City Centre. Although those buildings do not have sidewalks on the first floor like arcades, they have built air corridors between each other so that passers-by can pass directly through the buildings without being exposed to the equatorial sunlight. In other words, if the location is good, you can actually live in Xingzhou without being exposed to direct sunlight all day long.
——This is what the brochure says.
If Shangluo went out for a stroll today, he would probably be able to take a close look at the "Nanyang Arcade" and "corridor between skyscrapers" written in the guide book. But today was a rare day off, and he didn't want to go anywhere. He even wanted to rub glass with them.
"Ah, forget it, go to sleep." He fell back and covered himself with the quilt again, and began to fall asleep.
"Ah. I woke up again."
[Good morning, boy. You slept for a full 20 minutes when you came back to sleep! 】
"I'm really working hard. I can't sleep even if I want to." Wen Yuan raised his head and glanced at the bed next to him. He was already lying on the bed with the sign upside down on his face. Han Xingzhi on the opposite side also had the same posture. After all, the two of them fell on the last step before becoming immortals.
"Ah, young man." He shook his head. After confirming that Lu Liang was not there, he changed out of his pajamas and started to wash up.
I have to say, it feels really amazing to have a hotel on the plane. He took a shower under the shower until he was completely awake, then brushed his teeth and washed his face, tidied up his spirits, and then put on a clean school uniform.
Their school uniforms have always been narrow clothes - similar to Rome. Although both sides were traditionally wide clothes, after entering modern times, narrow clothes are used in certain situations, just like family cars are also divided into sedans, station wagons and sports cars. Multi-purpose vehicles and the like. Although the sedan is the most decent, decent performance scores points. Students' daily school uniforms are also narrow clothes, which make them look more smart and easy to change. They only change into wide clothes during major festivals.
