Chapter 14 News From Pandora

"After we left the capital of Jinyun Kingdom, we first moved to Guanxing City, where the slave trade is very developed. Some rich people will have some special needs after buying slaves, especially some female slaves, and they will like it. Let those women have some strange formal identities, our embassy can just solve this problem for them, so it’s been a good few days!” Philip sighed, and his eyes seemed to reveal the infinite yearning for that 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 those female slaves to have the official citizenship of the Golden Orchid Empire, you can also buy out some imperial official positions that have no real power but only reputation for those women, such as imperial palace advisors, palace musicians, The secretary of the Imperial Foreign Office, the officer of the art troupe 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 priest and saintess of the Holy Cult of Love founded by our emperor!"

Damn it, Zhang Tie understood as soon as he thought about it. For some upstarts, it goes without saying what they can do by buying a beautiful female slave back. Or when they want to do something strange, the sense of conquest brought to them by an ordinary beautiful female slave and a female slave with some strange identities is different.

"You make money with this?"

"Who says it's not? This is the only way for all embassies in the empire to get money. If we don't sell citizenship and those official positions and identities, what else can we sell? After selling the position of the foreign minister of the empire, Our emperor also sold all the positions of ambassadors in the embassy!" Nicholas wrinkled his face bitterly, "When I bought the position of ambassador, I spent more than 100,000 gold coins. Now the only task of all the embassies of the Holy Golden Orchid Empire is to declare the great theory of light and love of our Emperor. Anyone who has love and light in their hearts can become a member of the Holy Golden Orchid Empire. national!"

Zhang Tie was completely speechless. There are indeed some ethnic groups and religions in this world that rely on pure ideas, values ​​or behavioral standards. The Jewish ethnic group, in the sacred scriptures of this ethnic group, the definition of a Jew is, "Anyone who rejects idolatry is a Jew." For example, before the cataclysm, the world's largest religion, Buddhism, and the true definition of Buddhism for Buddhists are A collective term for those who believe in and practice the "Four Noble Truths".

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

A wonderful emperor has created a wonderful country, and a wonderful country has wonderful standards.

This is how Zhang Tie feels.

"Didn't you all stay well in Stargazing City? Why are you so down and out now?"

"After our emperor knew that some embassies obtained national qualifications and various identities for some people who could not get rid of slave status in order to satisfy some people's weird and perverted demands, His Majesty the Emperor ordered to prohibit the embassy from obtaining nationals for slaves. Identity, Your Majesty said, in a country of light and love, there should be no slaves!" Nicholas burst into tears, "I have a pity for the position of the imperial ambassador to Jinyun Kingdom that I bought with more than 100,000 gold coins, and the investment has only been recovered by half , the source of income will be cut off!"

Zhang Tie sighed,

The deeds of the Holy Golden Orchid Empire and His Majesty Haige VII could almost be written as a novel, but at this moment, I have no intention of continuing to pursue novels.

"Now I'm applying to join the Holy Golden Orchid Empire. What procedures do I need to go through, so hurry up, I'm in a hurry!"

Upon hearing what Zhang Tie said, Nicholas and Philip glanced at each other, and immediately became busy.

"Philip, wake up Piast and ask him to prepare the photo and get the equipment for collecting the metal finger film. This gentleman is in a hurry. I will prepare the national certification process for this gentleman!"

"Yes! Mr. Ambassador!" Philip quickly ran out of the office and yelled, "Piaste, you lazy pig, get your machines ready, you have to work!"

...

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

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

Because Nikolai had already told Zhang Tie what to say, so Zhang Tie only answered "Yes!", and the whole authentication process was over, and Zhang Tie didn't even leave his seat.

Afterwards, Zhang Tie took a picture in a narrow room in the embassy, ​​and collected a template of the metal finger film of his right thumb. The identity of Piast, who was responsible for taking the photo of Zhang Tie and collecting the metal finger film He is the first secretary of the embassy, ​​but the actual work he does is no different from that of the workers in the processing workshop.

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

Finally, after paying all the fees of twelve gold coins, Nicholas happily told Zhang Tie that Zhang Tie's national identity card for the Holy Golden Orchid Empire could be made if he waited more than ten minutes, and the 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 a restaurant, stood on both sides 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 identity. As far as the official position of admiral 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 Navy with the lowest price is ten gold coins. As long as Zhang Tie continues to pay ten gold coins, Zhang Tie will also get a military officer certificate officially issued by the Holy Golden Orchid Empire Military Headquarters, and Two sets of navy officer's dress - of course, this will have to wait a week.

The buyout price of the official position of the Holy Golden Orchid Empire Navy Admiral is 300,000 gold coins. In addition to the above pile of official identity documents and more Marshal reliance, this official position can also get a pure gold Admiral Scepter And have the opportunity to have lunch with His Majesty the great Emperor Sea Song VII. In the Holy Golden Orchid Empire, this status allows the recipient to enter many places that only high-ranking people can enter and leave, and the Imperial Military Department will also hire the Imperial Navy Admiral Being a lifelong advisor to the Imperial Military Department, serving as the honorary principal of the Naval University... In short, there are many benefits!

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

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

Zhang Tie understood. It is precisely because the Holy Golden Orchid Empire has no navy that a navy department has been created to sell officials. Woolen cloth.

Later, Philip introduced a lot of titles of the sacred golden orchid empire royal court advisor. Seeing that Zhang Tie seemed not interested in these vain and self-deceiving identities, Philip quickly flipped back the recipe-like service list two pages.

"Then how about this, you only need to pay 600 gold coins per year, you can be authorized to use the golden orchid badge of the imperial family, and enjoy the royal naming rights of the empire, these are all successful cases, such as this, this business group is in After using the title of the Royal Oak Merchant Group of the Holy Golden Orchid Empire, I once encountered a nest of robbers, and those robbers looked at the name of the merchant group and dared not to rob it..."

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

Zhang Tie shook his head. This naming right is still useful, but at this moment his identity should not be necessary. If he is in a place like Heiyan City, he can create a place like the Royal Club or War Hall of the Holy Golden Orchid Empire. Heiyan City The nouveau riche are sure to flock to it.

Later, Philip introduced some other projects, such as the sale of some uninhabited land in the Holy Golden Orchid Empire that can buy several square kilometers with a single gold coin, and the right to open up some areas outside the empire's territory, etc. Zhang Tie They all shook their heads.

"I'm sorry, if my ID is ready, please bring it for me. I'm not interested in your other projects here, so please don't introduce any more!" Zhang Tie said lightly.

"There is one more, there is another one, I bet you will be interested!" Seemingly unwilling to leave the embassy for a fat fish like Zhang Tie who only spent more than ten gold coins, Philip almost cried out, " As long as you are a man, you will definitely be interested in this. As long as you pay 200 gold coins, you will be eligible to participate in a grand event to be held in Oslie next year. Choose a husband for yourself from among the talented young men!"

"What? What's the name of the princess you're talking about?" Zhang Tie was slightly stunned for a moment. The word Pandora immediately brought back 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 and returned to Oslie last year. Her Royal Highness is the only daughter of Sea Song VII and the first heir to the imperial throne. , if nothing else happens, the Holy Golden Orchid Empire will have a queen in the future, and as the husband of Queen Pandora, the empire will also have an extra prince."

Sixteen years old, had been away before, and returned to Oslie last year, these few messages made Zhang Tie's heart tremble.

"Do you have any pictures 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 Foreign Office, in another month, when Princess Pandora's seventeenth birthday, we will be in Jinyun A full-page advertisement for Her Royal Highness Princess Pandora's husband selection ceremony next year will be published in the country's mainstream newspapers!"

Pandora in the photo still has black hair and black pupils, wearing a delicate and elegant princess crown inlaid with diamonds on her head, wearing a gorgeous blue court dress, with her hands gracefully crossed in front of her belly, one hand In his hand he held a beautiful golden cane.

Compared with Zhang Tie's impression of Pandora's emaciated appearance when he left Heiyan City, Pandora's figure in the photo has developed a bit, and there is a bright and healthy color on her face, which looks beautiful, elegant, and deep.

Anyone who looks at the photos will sigh that the princess should look like this.

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

Thinking of the scene when he put on this ring for Pandora at the station the night he left Heiyan City, for some reason, Zhang Tie burst into tears...

Nicholas and Philip looked at Zhang Tie holding the photo, unknowingly burst into tears, and each of them was at a loss.

"I'm sorry, it's the first time I saw such a beautiful princess, and I lost my composure!" Zhang Tie returned the photo to Nicholas, "You just said that Princess Pandora will choose her own husband next year?"

"Yes, it will be Princess Pandora's eighteenth birthday next year! Any unmarried man who is willing to spend 200 gold coins can go to Oslie to try his luck!"

"Then, count me in!" Zhang Tie took out his arms, and a bag of gold coins landed on Nicholas' 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.

The embassy of the Holy Golden Orchid Empire in Jinyun Kingdom will send the photos, names and finger wraps of those who apply to join the empire here to the management department of Huaiyuan County for record every three months. But Zhang Tie is not afraid even if it is filed, because the face wearing a cross-dressing mask at this moment, except for Tang De, probably no one in the entire Weiyi subcontinent can recognize it.

Half an hour later, Zhang Tie, using Fei Yuao's identity, stayed in a mid-range hotel at the intersection of Jinhai City's bustling business district and Hong Kong.

The room rate of the hotel is 6 silver coins per day. There is a club in the basement of the hotel, and there is a regular casino on the roof of the hotel. There are as many people coming in and out of the hotel every day as crucian carp.

Twenty minutes after entering the hotel, Zhang Tie changed his clothes, took off the cross-dressing mask on his face, and left the hotel with his original appearance.

No one cared how Zhang Tie got here, and naturally no one cared how Zhang Tie left.

After leaving the hotel, Zhang Tie circled twice, walked to a lively area in the business district, called a taxi, and let the car drive directly to the wealthy villa area on Changman Avenue in Jinhai City.

Zhang Tie's new home is in this place, and his parents and elder brother also live here.

Zhang Tie rang the doorbell of No. 76, Changman Avenue. After a few seconds, a small window on the gate opened, and the face of a strong man in his forties appeared in the window of the gate. 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 since his elder brother had an accident, he could probably guess the man's identity.

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

Hearing this answer, the man was quite surprised. He looked Zhang Tie carefully from head to toe, and said in a slightly more polite tone, "Please wait a moment..."

In less than half a minute, with the sound of slightly hasty footsteps from the yard inside the gate, the gate was opened, and the slightly haggard face of Zhang Tie's mother 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? Said that you can't come back now, your brother..." Speaking of Zhang Tie's elder brother, Zhang Tie's mother's eyes turned red again, and tears fell down uncontrollably.

"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 walked into the yard with his arms around her.

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

Although Zhang Tie was calm on the surface, the murderous intent in his heart had already boiled like thunder.

On the day when Zhang Tie had an accident on Qianlong Island, Zhang Tie’s elder brother Zhang Yang in Jinhai City also had an accident. Zhang Yang was kidnapped. At this moment in this world, I am afraid that there is no such person as Zhang Yang. Zhang Yang, who narrowly escaped, also almost died and was injured.

Those who kidnapped Zhang Yang in Jinhai City and those who attacked Zhang Tie on Qianlong Island were in the same group, because after the kidnapping failed, according to the information Zhang Tie got, the way those people committed suicide was the same as that of Zhang Tie. The tenth-level guy I saw in the underground committed suicide in exactly the same way. He bit the horrible poison in his metal dentures, and it turned into a puddle of pus and blood in a short time, leaving no scum left.

No matter what background the Zhen family in Tianhan City has, what kind of layout there is in Huanyuantang, and how much power and tricks are hidden, this time Zhang Tie came back and made up his mind that no matter what method he used, he would take Tianhan The Cheng Zhen family was completely wiped out.

The Zhen family in Tianhan City doesn't know that I have discovered their secret, the enemy is clear and we are dark, this is my biggest reliance at the moment.
