Extraordinary Sailing

Chapter 12: Gift

   Then Ivan got up and saluted gracefully, then turned and left with Graham.

  Gram followed Ivan out of the outpost, a little unclear.

   It seemed to him that the meeting today was simply nutritious, and he talked about topics that he didn't understand. On the contrary, he was most concerned about the reward for Aiwen. From the beginning to the end, neither of the parties mentioned anything.

   Let him stay calm, and Ivan knew that this was the way traditional aristocrats acted.

   For the sake of the face of both parties and the decency of the nobility, Nabri will not take the initiative to talk about the bounty issue naked, and the same is true for the Galliot family, a century-old nobleman.

   Compared with the emerging aristocrats who talk about money, they can’t say who is good and who is bad, but the criteria for doing things are different.

   As expected.

   The two stood outside the outpost for a while, and the other's adjutant came up and delivered the reward he deserved to him. In addition to the huge bounty of fifty golden lions, there is also a half-handed sword that looks ordinary but is well-forged.

   "Your Excellency Irvine, this is a personal gift from the Lord Lord. Please accept it. I wish you good luck and prosperity!"

   Aiwen is good at swordsmanship, and of course he understands swords.

   Grandpa Leo, who was once an official knight, had an extraordinary saber, but unfortunately, he had already lost it when he fled.

   What he uses now is only the ordinary goods forged in the blacksmith's shop, which is incomparable with military supplies such as fine items that have no place to buy. If he had such a sword in his hand when he was playing against the black bear, he would dare to face the black bear head-on and crush him head-on.

   "Thank you Sir Sir, I like his gift very much."

   After some courtesy, Ivan watched the adjutant return to the post, and then left with Graham.

   Before the two separated, Ivan took out five golden lion plugs and gave them to Gram. This guy smiled immediately, but he didn't expect that he still had a share of his own, so he rejected it twice and took it.

   Aiwen’s code of conduct is very modern, the more friends, the less able to make small calculations on money-related matters. After all, Graham and his own adventure today, and the credit of introducing Sir Nabry, are completely worthy of the reward of these five golden lions.

   Looking back, Gram was still able to receive a reward for the wartime conscription, which should be able to match his income for half a year, which is quite a reward.

  ......

   The next day, the originally expected journey failed.

  Of course, Aiwen was once again summoned by Viscount Andrea, who is also the highest local consul.

  Through the exchange with Lord Nabry yesterday, Ivan knew that the Kingdom of Falates and the home country Ilya, which he did not have much impression of, also had disputes between old and new nobles.

   But Falettis has a powerful royal family, firmly grasping the supreme military force of the country and more than 80% of the professional army, as the superior judge and the referee.

   Many years ago, he used clever means to straighten out all the forces in the country, both old and new.

  The iron order will suppress all unstable factors under Her Majesty’s throne. No matter what the struggle is, the rules set by Her Majesty must be followed to minimize internal friction.

   At the same time, the royal family used the contradiction between the fief aristocracy and the emerging aristocracy to transform it into their own opportunity.

   Cooperating with the emerging aristocracy and the bourgeoisie, through the urbanization movement, gradually eroding the land of the old fiefdom nobility; signing a contract with the old aristocracy to occupy a place in the emerging city and obtain far more economic benefits than the former closed manor.

   At the same time, through the continuous development of new routes and overseas colonies, all parties are tied to their own chariots. No matter how strong the parties are, the royal family and the kingdom are the biggest beneficiaries and will always be invincible!

   After a generation of hard work, Falettis has become a regional power and has a great voice in the Tulip Alliance.

   The consul Viscount Andrea is a former fief noble who has been very successful in transition under this background, and he also owns the management power of the city through the citizen council.

   In the reception room of the Archon of the City Hall, Ivan met the most distinguished figure of Leopold.

   This is a very dignified old man. All the traits of Western aristocrats in the impression of Aiwen in his previous life can find obvious shadows in him. He is rigid, strict, and uncomfortable. He is a very typical upper person.

   In the face of Irving, who is not well-known, his words are simple and direct:

   "Although Nabry has reported your situation to me, I still want to ask your thoughts in person. Would you like to join my Leopold City and become a member of the city guard?"

   Against the old man’s extremely stressed gaze, Irvine bit his scalp and said:

   "Leopold is your city, and it is also my hometown. It is my mission to defend my hometown, but I still want to see the outside world while I am young."

   Seeing the sincerity and firmness in Aiwen's eyes, the old man's sharp eagle-like eyes eased slightly, and the corners of the stone-carved mouth also had a slight curve.

"Ok.

   Although I am very sorry. But as an old man, I can understand what the young eagles think, and I always want to use my wings to measure how high and far this day is.

   If you want to come back, Leopold is your forever home, child! "

   "Thank you, sir! Thank you very much for your understanding." No matter how sincerely you are, it is very rare to be able to say this as an elderly person, and Ivan did not feel offended.

   Even though he could not accept his good intentions, Irvine got up and saluted him deeply.

   The old man waved his hand to make Aiwen sit down again, turning the signet ring on his hand and said casually:

   "I heard that you have the idea of ​​joining the Royal Navy? I have written a recommendation letter for you. You can bring it with you, use it or not.

   Although it is impossible to go through the back door, it can save you a lot of trouble as an admission ticket. "

   After a while, Aiwen took the letter paper with the coat of arms of the old man's family with both hands, saluted again, and left.

   and then ran out of the city hall like an escape.

   Aiwen yelled in his heart: "Although I don't know what level he has reached, this old man is definitely a hidden extraordinary person. Facing him is more tiring than a **** battle with pirates!"

   Walking on the way back, scenes of today's experience resurfaced, and Aiwen lamented that the methods of the veteran aristocrats were really dripping.

   I prepared a letter of recommendation in advance. Even if I can't leave Ivan, I will try my best to be kind to a talent who grew up in Leopold and tends to favor the other side.

   is just a small effort for the elderly, but in the future, even if Aiwen only has a one-tenth chance to provide a return, it will be a big profit!

   Even though Ivan’s wisdom has penetrated into the old man’s plan, regardless of whether this letter of recommendation is used or not, he has to accept his favor.

   As for how he learned about Aiwen's intelligence in less than a day? As a landlord, it is even stranger to not understand!

  ......

   Aiwen is doing the final preparations before departure.

   The other side of the pirate siege incident on the "Blood Anchor" pirate ship is another atmosphere. UU reading www.uukanshu. com

   The pirates looted from the siege and looted the ship last night. After counting the number of people, the entire pirate ship was enveloped by a low pressure.

   Blood Anchor Zach is going crazy!

   The previous looting failure and the navy’s tail pursuit made Captain Zac desperately need a brilliant victory to stabilize his position on the ship, and to eliminate the ambitions of these scumbags and villains on the ship.

   At the last time, some of the thorns that have expressed their dissatisfaction on the face should be wiped out, so that the rest of the people will know who is in charge on this boat!

After choosing Leopold, the little-known fishing town, Zach directly sent many thornheads who questioned his authority ashore. Whether the outcome of this battle is good or bad, he can relieve himself of successive failures and prestige. Dilemma.

   Even to be on the safe side, the Blood Anchor Zach sent his loyal right-hand man "Billy the Sailor the Black Bear" to the battle, thinking that he had done nothing wrong.

   But after the landing troops returned and counted the number of people, the number of casualties was as high as 56 people, but it was painful to the blood anchor. You must know that because of the previous loss of personnel, there were only 130 pirates on the ship!

   What's more, because the looting time is limited, the spoils brought back by the pirates cannot make up for the loss of personnel this time.

   In addition to the thirty hard-core loyal loyalists left on the ship before, less than half of the 100 pirates sent out came back.

  Especially Billy the Black Bear, the captain of the sailor, did not come back. Now even the **** crewmen under his watched his eyes flashing, and the heart was more turbulent than before. The blood anchor was so sad that he almost vomited blood.

   "Raise the anchor, let's go looting the merchant ship!!!"
