Castle of Black Iron

Chapter 342: Pandora's message

"After we left the capital of Jinyun Kingdom, we first moved to Star-Gazing City, where the slave trade was very developed. After some rich people bought slaves, especially female slaves, they would have some special needs and would like them. Let those women have some strange formal identities, our embassy can just solve this problem for them, so it has been a few days of moisturizing!" Philip sighed, his eyes seemed to show infinite yearning for that period of time .

"Strange identity? What kind of identity can you provide for those female slaves?" Zhang Tie asked curiously.

"As long as a sum of money can be paid, in addition to allowing the female slaves to have the official national status of the Golden Orchid Empire, they can also buy out some imperial officials who have no real power but only honor, such as the imperial palace consultant and palace musician. The secretary of the Imperial Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the officers of the art corps in the Guards, etc.!" Philip replied. "Among these official identities that can be bought with money, the most popular role is the identity of the saint and saint of the Sacred Church of Love founded by our Emperor!"

Damn, Zhang Tie understands when he thinks about it. For some nouveau riche people, it is natural to buy a beautiful female slave back to do what they can do. Needless to say, think about it with your knees, but for those people, even in bed Or when they want to do some strange things, an ordinary beautiful female slave and a female slave with some strange identity bring them different sense of conquest.

"You rely on this to make money?"

"Who said no? This is the only way for all embassies in the empire to get money. Without selling national qualifications and those official positions and identities, what else can we sell? After selling the position of the Imperial Foreign Minister, Our emperor also sold all the official positions of embassy ambassadors!" Nicholas wrinkled his face, "When I bought this ambassador official position, I spent more than 100,000 gold coins. Now the only task of all embassies of the Holy Golden Orchid Empire is to declare the great light and love theory of our emperor. Anyone who has love and light in his heart can become the Holy Golden Orchid Empire. national!"

Zhang Tie is completely speechless. There are indeed some ethnic groups and religions in this world that rely on pure ideas, values ​​or standards of behavior. For example, before the cataclysm, those on the mainland were as famous as the Chinese, and were known for being good at doing business and gathering wealth. The Jewish ethnic group, in the sacred scriptures of this ethnic group, the definition of Jews is, "Anyone who rejects idolatry is Jewish." For example, before the cataclysm, the world’s largest religious Buddhism, Buddhism’s true definition of Buddhists is A collective term for those who believe in and practice the "Four Noble Truths".

Zhang Tie didn’t know this before. These are the knowledge that Zhang Tie learned when he studied "General History of the Human Race" in Qianlong Hall in the past six months. These are examples of collective cohesion and organization based on values ​​and behavior patterns. But Zhang Tie never thought that in the age of black iron, in this world of great controversy, there are people who want to rely on the empty words of "light and love" to complete an organization.

The weird emperor created a weird country, and the weird country has a weird standard.

This is what Zhang Tie feels.

"Didn't you stay in Stargazing City well? Why are you so downcast now?"

"After our emperor knew that some embassies were obtaining national qualifications and various identities for those who could not be separated from slavery status in order to meet the strange and perverted requirements of some people, the emperor ordered the prohibition of embassies to obtain nationals for slaves. Identity, your majesty said, in a country of light and love, there should be no slaves!" Nicholas was tearful, "Pity my position as the ambassador of the Empire in Jinyun, bought by more than 100,000 gold coins. The investment has only been recovered by half. , The road to money will be cut off!"

Zhang Tie sighed. The deeds of the Holy Golden Orchid Empire and the emperor of Sea Song VII can almost write a novel, but at this moment he has no intention of continuing to be curious.

"Now I'm applying to join the Holy Golden Orchid Empire. What are the procedures to be done? Hurry up. I'm still in a hurry!"

When Zhang Tie said this, Nikolai and Philip looked at each other and suddenly became busy.

"Philip, you call Piast to get him ready to take pictures and fix the equipment for collecting metal finger film. This gentleman is in a hurry. I will prepare the national certification procedure for this gentleman!"

"Yes! Mr. Ambassador!" Philip hurried out of the office and shouted directly, "Piast, you lazy pig, get your machines ready for work!"

...

Zhang Tie thought the so-called national certification process of the Holy Golden Orchid Empire was very complicated at first, but he didn't expect that the process would be as simple and trivial as a child's play.

Nicholas took out a "Sacred Code" from his desk and asked Zhang Tie to press his hand on the code. Then Nikolai asked Zhang Tie a question in a very serious tone, "You have light and love in your heart. ?"

Because Nicholas had already told Zhang Tie what he wanted to say, Zhang Tie only replied "Yes!" and the whole authentication process was over. Zhang Tie did not even leave the seat.

Afterwards, Zhang Tie took a photo in a small small house in the embassy and collected the template of the metal finger film of the thumb of his right hand. He was responsible for taking pictures of Zhang Tie and the identity of Piast, who collected the metal finger film. It is the first-class secretary of the embassy, ​​but the work actually done is no different from the workers in the workshop.

Afterwards, Zhang Tie wrote the name of his current identity-Fei Yuao.

Finally, after paying all the fees for the twelve gold coins, Nicholas happily told Zhang Tie that as long as he waited more than ten minutes, Zhang Tie’s national identity card of the Holy Golden Orchid Empire could be completed. Embassy There is a full set of equipment.

While waiting for Zhang Tie’s ID card to be ready, Philip took out a large book that looked like a recipe in the restaurant, and stood on either side of Zhang Tie with Nicholas, and introduced Zhang Tie to the embassy. Other service items.

Fei Yuao is now just an ordinary citizen of the Holy Golden Orchid Empire, but as long as Zhang Tie pays, he can immediately have an extremely dazzling official position and status. If Zhang Tie wants to be an officer, then, from the ensign of the navy When arriving at the post of Marshal of the Navy, each one is clearly marked with a price, and Zhang Tie is free to choose.

The identity of the second lieutenant of the Holy Golden Orchid Empire with the lowest price is ten gold coins. As long as Zhang Tie continues to pay ten gold coins, Zhang Tie will also receive an official certificate issued by the Holy Golden Orchid Empire Military Department and Two sets of navy officer's gowns-of course, this will take a week.

The buyout price of the official position of the Marshal of the Holy Golden Orchid Empire is 300,000 gold coins. In addition to the official identity documents and more marshals above, this official position can also get a pure gold marshal's scepter. And have the opportunity to have a lunch with the great Emperor Haisong VII. In the Holy Golden Orchid Empire, this identity allows the winner to enter many places that only the upper class can enter and exit, and the Imperial Military Department will also hire the Imperial Navy Marshal Being a lifelong adviser to the Imperial Army, serving as the Honorary President of Naval University...In short, there are many advantages!

Philip was eloquent, but Zhang Tie was puzzled, "Isn't the Holy Golden Orchid Empire a landlocked country? Where is the navy?"

"No one has stipulated that inland countries are not allowed to have navies. Anyway, there is a navy department in the military department of the empire. These officials are also real status. Except for no salary, warships and sailors, the others are real officers. Treatment!" Philip said slyly.

Zhang Tie understands. It is precisely because the Holy Golden Orchid Empire does not have a navy that a navy department was created to sell officials. No matter how much it sells, there is nothing wrong with it. Perhaps there is really nouveau riche who likes to be an officer and a big man. It.

Later, Philip introduced a lot of titles of consultants to the royal court of the Holy Golden Orchid Empire. Seeing that Zhang Tie seemed uninterested in these self-deceiving identities, Philip quickly turned back the service list that looked like a recipe book. Two pages.

"Then look at this. As long as you pay 600 gold coins per year, you can be authorized to use the golden orchid emblem of the imperial royal family and enjoy the royal naming rights of the imperial family. These are all successful cases. For example, this business group is in After using the name of the Royal Oak Merchant Group of the Holy Golden Orchid Empire, I once encountered a brood of robbers. Looking at the name of this merchant group, those robbers did not dare to rob..."

"And this club, after being crowned with the title of Holy Golden Orchid Empire Imperial Club, the club's business has doubled..."

Zhang Tie shook his head. This naming right is still useful, but his identity should not be needed at this moment. If he is in a place like Heiyan City, he will also create a place like the Imperial Club of the Holy Golden Orchid Empire or the battle hall, Heiyan City. The nouveau riche will definitely follow suit.

Later, Philip introduced some other projects, such as the sale of certain uninhabited land of the Holy Golden Orchid Empire with a single gold coin, and the pioneering rights of certain areas outside the empire's territory. Zhang Tie Both shook their heads.

"Excuse me, if my identity certificate is prepared, please bring it for me. I am not interested in other projects here, please stop introducing it!" Zhang Tie said lightly.

"There's one more, and one more, I bet you will be interested!" Seemingly unwilling to leave the embassy with a fatty fish like Zhang Tie for just over ten gold coins, Philip almost cried out. As long as you are a man, you will be interested in this. As long as you pay 200 gold coins, you are eligible to participate in a grand event to be held in Osley next year. In that event, the Royal Highness Princess Pandora will be in all the participants. Among the young talents, choose a husband for yourself!"

"What? What is the name of the princess that you are talking about?" Zhang Tie was slightly stunned. The three words Pandora immediately evoked those warm memories in Zhang Tie's heart. Zhang Tie thought it was just a coincidence.

"His Royal Highness is called Pandora. She is just sixteen years old this year. I heard that Princess Pandora has been studying outside before returning to Osley last year. Her Royal Highness is the only daughter of Sea Song VII and the first heir to the imperial throne. If nothing happens, the Holy Golden Orchid Empire will have a queen in the future. As the husband of Empress Pandora, the empire will also have an extra prince."

He was sixteen years old and had been away before. Last year, when he returned to Osli, these messages made Zhang Tie's heart tremble.

"Do you have a picture of Princess Pandora here?"

Nicholas opened the drawer, took out a photo from the drawer and handed it to Zhang Tie, "According to the order from the Imperial Ministry of Foreign Affairs, one month later, when Princess Pandora turns 17, we will be in Jinyun. A full-page advertisement was published in the mainstream newspapers of the country for Her Royal Highness Princess Pandora's husband selection event next year!"

Pandora in the photo still has black hair and black eyes, wearing a delicate and elegant princess crown inlaid with diamonds on her head, wearing a gorgeous blue court dress, her hands elegantly folded in front of her belly, and one hand He also held a beautiful golden walking stick in his hand.

Compared with Pandora's thin appearance when Zhang Tie left the Black Flame City, Pandora in the photo has developed a little more, with a bright and healthy color on his face, looking beautiful, elegant, and deep.

Anyone who looks at the photos will sigh, the princess should be like this.

Zhang Tie's eyes were fixed on the ring finger of Pandora's right hand holding a golden cane in the photo. In the photo, a black seal ring can still be seen there.

Thinking of the scene when he put on this ring for Pandora at the station the night when he left Black Flame City, I don't know why, Zhang Tie's tears suddenly shed...

Nicola and Philip looked at Zhang Tie holding the photo, tears bursting into their faces unknowingly, and they were a little at a loss.

"Sorry, it's the first time I saw such a beautiful princess, and I was a little gaffe!" Zhang Tie returned the photo to Nicholas. "You just said that Princess Pandora will personally choose her husband next year?"

"Yes, it will be the 18th birthday of Princess Pandora next year! As long as the unmarried men who are willing to come up with 200 gold coins, they can go to Auslie to try their luck!"

"Then, count me!" Zhang Tie drew in his arms, and a heavy bag of gold coins fell on Nikolai's desk.

...

More than ten minutes later, Zhang Tie, holding a sacred Golden Orchid Empire national identity card named "Fei Yuao", left the embassy, ​​called a taxi again, and disappeared on this street.

Every three months, the Embassy of the Holy Golden Orchid Empire in Jinyun State will take the photos, names and fingerprints of those who apply to join the empire to the administrative department of Huaiyuan County for filing. But even if it was put on record, Zhang Tie was not afraid, because at this moment, there was no one in the entire Weiyi subcontinent that could recognize the face wearing a cross-dressing mask, except for the guy Tang De.

Half an hour later, Zhang Tie used Fei Yuao's identity to stay in a mid-range hotel at the intersection of the lively commercial district and the red light district of Jinhai City.

The hotel’s room rate is 6 silver coins a day. There is a club on the ground floor of the hotel, and a regular casino on the top of the hotel. There are more people coming in and out of the hotel every day than a river crucian.

Twenty minutes after entering the hotel, Zhang Tie changed his clothes, took off the cross-dressing mask on his face, and left the hotel as he was.

No one cares how Zhang Tie came, and naturally no one cares how Zhang Tie left.

After leaving the hotel, Zhang Tie circled two circles. After walking to a lively area in the business district, he called a taxi and drove the car directly to the wealthy villa area on Changman Street in Jinhai City.

Zhang Tie’s new home is in this place, where his parents and brothers also live.

Zhang Tie rang the doorbell at No. 76 Changman Street. After a few seconds, a small window on the door opened. A man in his forties, the face of a powerful and powerful man appeared in the window of the door. At this point, looking at Zhang Tie standing outside the door, he frowned slightly.

"Who are you looking for?"

Zhang Tie didn't know this man either, but because of an accident with his brother, he could probably guess the identity of this man.

"My name is Zhang Tie, I live here, Zhang Yang is my brother!" Zhang Tie replied calmly.

Hearing this answer, the man was a little surprised. He looked at Zhang Tie from head to toe carefully, his tone was a little more polite, "Please wait a moment..."

In less than half a minute, the door was opened suddenly with the sound of slight hurried footsteps in the courtyard inside the gate, and the slightly haggard face of Zhang Tie's mother suddenly appeared in front of Zhang Tie's eyes.

"Mom!"

"Guoguo, it's really you!" Zhang Tie's mother was so excited that she hugged Zhang Tie, "Aren't you on Qianlong Island? Why are you back? Last night, your uncle talked about you. Saying that you can't come back now, your brother..." Speaking of Zhang Tie's old brother, Zhang Tie's mother's eyes reddened all of a sudden, and tears could not stop falling.

"Mom, I'm back, it's okay, I already know about the big brother, let's go in and talk about it!" Zhang Tie patted his mother on the back, comforted her, and then walked into the yard with his arms around him.

Compared to when Zhang Tie left, there was a small slide, a little wooden horse, and a few baby toys on the grass in the yard. Zhang Tie looked at the toys and took a deep breath.

Although Zhang Tie was calm on the surface, the murderous intent in his heart was already boiling.

When Zhang Tie had an accident on Qianlong Island, Zhang Tie’s older brother Zhang Yang in Jinhai City also had an accident. Zhang Yang was kidnapped. If it weren’t for some accidents, the kidnappers would fail. At this moment, there is probably no such person as Zhang Yang in this world. Zhang Yang, who had escaped from the dead, also almost died and was injured.

The people who kidnapped Zhang Yang in Jinhai City and those who shot Zhang Tie on Qianlong Island belong to the same group, because after the kidnapping failed, according to the news that Zhang Tie got, the way those people committed suicide was similar to Zhang Tie. The tenth level guy I saw underground committed suicide in exactly the same way. They all bit the terrifying poison in their metal dentures, and soon turned into a pool of pus and blood, and died so much that there was no residue left.

Regardless of the background of the Zhen family in Tianhan City, what kind of layout and how much power and tricks are hidden in Huanyuantang, this time Zhang Tie came back and made up his mind to treat Tianhan no matter what method he uses. The Chengzhen family was completely erased.

The Zhen family in Chill City still doesn't know that they have discovered their secrets. The enemy is bright and we are dark. This is what he can rely on at the moment.
