The crystal raindrops fell from the sky, slamming on the ground making a rattling sound. www.)
The whole city of Ryder was shrouded in heavy rain.
Taking this opportunity, under the scorching sun, it is rare for the people who have worked so hard to put down their work and hide under the eaves to enjoy the comfortable rain.
From a distance, the spire of the magnificent palace hall has disappeared behind the rain and fog.
Even the large golden cross at the center of the Temple of Light, which is clearly visible at ordinary times, is only looming.
The whole city was shrouded in a thin layer of rain and fog.
The air is fresh and cool, and the temperature is pleasant.
Rain drove away the hot and scorching heat for several days and brought a wonderful coolness to the earth.
In this kind of weather, the nobles who know how to enjoy life often move over a deck chair, and then sit in the corridor, holding a cup of fragrant tea, and enjoying the beauty of the rain on the banana trees.
It would be great if there was another well-behaved and cute beauty sitting beside him. Even if the emperor comes, he might not change it.
This kind of decadent, non-aggressive, no consideration of national affairs, but an extremely selfish petty-bourgeois way of living in pursuit of personal comfort, has now become a trend among aristocrats and small and medium landlords.
Since the economic development of Nian'an, Lord Luo has not less used the media in his hands as another weapon of mass destruction to vigorously export culture to the outside world... well, cultural dissemination.
Under the strong influence of Nian’s culture, those nobles also hold Goethe every day... Well, Sir Alex Ferguson’s "The Troubles of Young Werther", or Xu Zhimo... "Don't Maple Leaf Danlin", "A Night in Fei Leng Cui" Haruki Murakami...Khan, Sir Alex Ferguson's "Norwegian Forest", while drinking black tea, looked up at the sky melancholy at a 45-degree angle. Looks very literary youth. It looks like 213.
And from time to time, he was very poetic, and suddenly yelled, "Ah. The sea, you are all water~! Horses, you have four legs~!
Girl, you are so beautiful when you are not wearing clothes..."
Everyone who was annoyed saw them all as if they had met a mad dog. Take a long detour.
But what I have to say is that under the influence of Nian's cultural media, there are more and more such people.
Now even some small landlords and small merchants have joined them. Those who are always pretending to be dead, have a very cultural look.
Ryder City is the best place in a country. Most of the people living here are wealthy and leisurely aristocratic landlords, so they are naturally inevitable.
Whenever there was a storm or something, they would find excuses not to work. Hide aside and be lazy.
Not to mention. Now that it was raining in Ryder City, they were naturally more confident.
Only those who are naturally toiled and extremely poor can withstand the heavy rain, step on the deep and shallow muddy water, running hard to earn food for the family.
Just when this rich man was hiding leisurely, on the empty street in the center of Ryder City. Suddenly a long line of convoy appeared, braving the heavy rain all the way forward.
The caravan is extremely spectacular, stretching for two miles. When the first car turned the intersection, the last car was still in town.
The wheels moved slowly in the deep stagnant water that reached the ankle.
The steed pulling the cart slipped from time to time, and the drenched coachman had to spend twelve minutes to control the reins.
The wheels of the carriage also bumped and bumped from time to time. At this time, the carriage swayed from side to side.
After all, Leiria is a small country, and Ryde is also a not-so-large city, and its scale is a bit worse than many provinces of the Ruman Empire.
Naturally, there is no perfect drainage and road system in the city.
In fact, cities in this era are almost the same dirty, smelly and messy. For the sake of convenience, the common people also urinate and defecate anywhere. So much so that the whole city is stinking.
There is only Maple Leaf Danlin. Only places like Vantino, the big city of the Ruman Empire, would have leisure, and they would spare the money to build a drainage system.
Otherwise, they would be the same as Ryder City now, rainy and muddy. A layer of dust on a sunny day.
Many cities choose to build on both sides of rivers or simply excavate artificial rivers for the convenience of transportation and drainage.
Because of this, they only need to build the streets without repairing any drainage pipes. When it rains, the rainwater will flow out of the city along the streets, and at the same time wash away the garbage accumulated in the city.
The root is convenience.
This is also the reason why no one wants to go out on rainy days. No one knows whether the rushing rain will catch things like stool. In case of slipping, take another bite...
It's disgusting just to be disgusting.
The long motorcade on the street made a huge noise, which naturally attracted the attention of citizens on both sides.
Just looking at the family crest on the carriage, they knew that it was Duke De Rossi from the east.
Everyone has heard too much about the story of this master huāhuā, and after listening to it for 20 or 30 years, they have long been disinterested.
The citizens of Ryder City also knew that Lord De Rossi was a disaster and did not know how many bad things he had done.
But the Bata Lì who they scoured had nothing to do with their Ryder people, and De Rossi didn't dare to mess around in Ryder City.
On the contrary, some people still admire De Rossi and his son's gracefulness.
Everyone just looked down on the De Rossi family based on the natural superiority of the imperial roots at the feet of the emperor.
The people of Ryder City resolutely support His Majesty the King and the Crown Prince. It is said that the relationship between the Crown Prince and De Rossi is not very good, and the citizens naturally do not catch a cold with De Rossi and his son.
But what surprised the onlookers was the guards guarding the two luxury RVs in the middle of the convoy.
Even though bursts of rain drenched the armor of the Guardsmen and soldiers, and the brightly colored helmets on their heads drooped down like rotten huā flowers, the Guards were still proud.
It is very rare that the Duke of De Rossi is escorted by the Janissaries. The convoy drove in heavy rain again, which shows that what happened this time.
There were a lot of discussions about the facts, and the inside information of showing off when they knew the truth made the people around them stunned.
Female reporters from the "Economic Observer" magazine were also in the crowd, watching people who had never seen the market talked about it.
Everyone is also very curious about her identity. These years, there are very few business women who are capable of dressing up and working everywhere. Rare is like a super protected animal.
It's just that the citizens found that this shrewd woman was a bit cold, and more importantly, the sturdy man beside him, naturally no one dared to step forward and find it uncomfortable.
The female reporter did not show interest in popular science by the Ryder, and watched Duke De Rossi's motorcade passing by the door.
She was only one day earlier than Duke De Rossi. The male reporter from "Red Maple Leaf" accompanied him.
He also decided to do follow-up interviews and make a series of reports. This incident is too typical to be passed down as a classic case.
Generally, women’s feelings should be richer. Seeing De Rossi who swaggered through the market, she said disdainfully: "At this time, she is still showing off."
"It's just the last chance." The reporter of "Red Maple Leaf" said: "I just got a message from my old classmate. This old guy and his son. It is estimated that they will be detained for a lifetime."
The female reporter pouted and said angrily: "It's too cheap for him. How many people are forced to commit suicide by jumping off the building."
The reporter of "Red Maple Leaf" shrugged and said, "Who asked them to lend him money? No one forced them with a knife. It's not greedy for profit."
"Uh..." The female reporter got stuck and couldn't speak. What she said made sense.
"Red Maple Leaf" reporter Nu Nuzui, said: "Actually deal with this kind of person. The best punishment is not to kill him, it would be too cheap for them.
They should be turned into servants of others, watching others live the life they used to be drunk. They can only eat chaffy vegetables.
That's better than killing them. "
The female reporter imagined the scene where Young Master De Rossi was wearing a servant's livery, holding a basin and waiting for others to spit and wash his hands. She shook her head and smiled and said, "Brother, you shouldn't have graduated from the Maple Leaf Danlin Strategy Department. Right?"
"Hey?" The reporter of "Red Maple Leaf" pretended to be surprised: "Junior Sister, how do you know?"
The female reporter curled her lips and said, "All those who come out of the strategy department are... poisonous and unique."
She originally wanted to say that her mind was vicious, and the Maple Leaf Danlin Strategy Division has also been known in recent years, and there have been several outstanding bad-eyed hooligans headed by Lord Lorraine.
But she remembered in time that the strategy class was the department of her big boss. Speaking out is equivalent to cursing her boss together, but fortunately he stopped in time.
Of course, the reporter of "Red Maple Leaf" saw her thoughts and laughed freely with her head up.
The long convoy just finished walking in front of the door, and the rain seemed to be weaker.
The reporter of "Red Maple Leaf" patted his purse, stood up and said, "Let's go, I have an appointment with another informant. I will miss the appointment while waiting."
××××××
De Rossi's motorcade crossed the city to the Ducal Palace on the same street as the Royal Palace.
After the convoy drove slowly into the mansion, the servants did not care about the rain, and hurriedly descended to unload the truck.
Duke De Rossi and his son jumped out of the car, before entering the hall, a voice came from behind, saying, "Your Excellency."
De Rossi and his son turned around and saw a middle-aged man in court costume standing behind him in the rain.
He leaned slightly to De Rossi and his son, and said: "Your Majesty's servant, your Majesty Heberman, will deliver your majesty's orders. Your Majesty ordered the Duke and the Prince to enter the palace immediately."
Duke De Rossi looked unhappy, waved his hand casually, and said, "I see."
Heberman raised his voice and raised his voice in front of everyone: "Your Excellency, what your Majesty said, right now!"
Duke De Rossi straightened his face immediately and looked at Heberman who passed the order angrily.
Heberman stood upright in the rain, and looked at Duke De Rossi without showing any weakness, with a very firm attitude. He knew in his heart what the kingdom would do with the father and son De Rossi, and he fell into trouble at this time.
Son De Rossi suddenly stood in front of his father and said plainly: "I see, we change clothes and immediately, we will see His Majesty the King."
Heberman nodded blankly and said: "Your Excellency, please as soon as possible, don't let your Majesty wait too long."
Young Master De Rossi suddenly showed a meaningful smile and said: "No, I also hope to see my uncle and my brother soon."
Seeing Master De Rossi's eyes, Heberman's heart suddenly jumped and he was taken aback, but De Rossi and his sons quickly disappeared inside the door.
Heberman snorted, taking this as the death of De Rossi and his son.
A quarter of an hour later, De Rossi and his son took a few attendants, and the carrier reappeared outside the door with a big box.
Young Master De Rossi stretched out his hand with a smile. To Heberman: "Please."
The tone is like treating the next person, full of the master's superiority.
"It's going to be unlucky soon, what a cow." Heberman cursed inwardly, not looking at De Rossi and the others. Turn around and leave.
After passing the palace gate, entering the inner hall, and passing several corridor gates, Heberman led the son of De Rossi and his attendants to a gate.
Outside the door was guarded by a group of mighty soldiers of the Imperial Guard.
Heberman pointed to the door and said, "Your Majesty is waiting for you inside."
Then he stepped aside and watched coldly.
Lord De Rossi casually ordered the attendant: "Wait here."
The attendants responded and put down the carrying box. He also stepped aside, lowered his head and stared at the ground silently.
Young Master De Rossi stepped forward and pushed open the door with a huff.
In the middle of the room sat a majestic old man with white beard and hair and a simple and elegant crown on his head.
The two sides are piercing, and the eyes are like torches, staring at De Rossi and his son.
Seeing these eyes, Young Master De Rossi suddenly felt guilty and lowered his head unconsciously.
The old popularity is majestic. Just where he sits, he reveals the demeanor of the king.
It was Inholt, the king of the Kingdom of Leiria.
Prince Matthias stood upright behind the king and looked at De Rossi and his son with his head up slightly. His eyes were full of triumph and disdain.
Duke De Rossi walked in behind his son, and when he saw the old king's gloomy face, he stood aside timidly and called out: "Big Brother."
The king was prestigious because Holt was not angry. He stared at De Rossi and his son with piercing eyes, and said annoyedly with his thick voice: "Good deeds, your father and son~!"
Duke De Rossi picked up the corners of his mouth, but in the end he didn't laugh, he only muffled: "Brother, there is a reason for this..."
King Inholt said: "I'm listening to you to explain."
Duke De Rossi said anxiously: "We were deceived by that Lorraine."
In Holt suddenly slapped the table top, and the cups on it jumped up. The loud voice made Duke De Rossi tremble.
King Inholt said: "Asshole, I asked you to stop the expansion of the United Nations. I didn't let you go stocks in Lorraine."
Fight against him on his turf, can you possibly please?
But you, you actually owe huge debts and dare to embezzle taxes. You dug such a big hole. How can I make up?
Do you know that your creditors will go to the United Nations to file a complaint and seize the goods and funds of our kingdom to repay the debt. "
The misappropriation of taxes directly caused the malfunction of the Kingdom of Leiria. Without this money, it would be difficult for the Kingdom to do many things in the second half of the year.
Because of Holt, the king had to consider making money again to make up for the deficit, but now who dares to lend money to the Kingdom of Leiria.
The appeal of the creditors to the United Nations made King Inholt even more angry: this is really shameful.
If Leiria’s ships and cargo are seized by other countries to pay off debts, he, the king and his kingdom, will become a laughing stock in the mouths of others and be laughed at for hundreds of years.
This kind of "eternal name" thing, King Inholt is absolutely not allowed to happen.
Seeing Duke De Rossi's timidity and cowering, the Holt Kingdom was out of anger. This guy has never played a positive role except to cause trouble for him since childhood.
King Inholt had to wipe his brother's again and again.
Now he was finally bored.
King Holt glared at Duke De Rossi in disgust, looked at his son, Lord De Rossi, and said with a hatred of iron and steel: "You did well in Maple Leaf Danlin. I thought you finally grew up. Is doing business.
The results of it?
Why did you provoke Lorraine? Just to prove that you are better than him? "
Young Master De Rossi stood straight, looking at his uncle and brother calmly, without any intention of admitting wrong.
Prince Matthias couldn't help frowning, he had never liked his brother.
The crown prince can always see the dangerous ambition in his eyes, and every time he sees the arrogant De Rossi, the crown prince feels as greasy as he has eaten a fly.
Therefore, this time the Crown Prince actively promoted the unanimous opposition of the ruling and the opposition to the De Rossi father and son, making the Kingdom of Inholt firm its determination to ban them.
Now Prince Matthias can finally see the annoying De Rossi father and son with the eyes of a loser.
As soon as he gave an order, the judges and guard servants waiting outside would rush in, arrest De Rossi and his sons, and read their charges face to face.
Another public trial and judgment will be held to expose the scandalous deeds of the De Rossi father and son in front of the people across the country.
To calm the anger of the creditors against Leiria.
At this time, the prince Matthias will come forward and promise to sell all of De Rossi's property to repay the debt.
At that time, whether his crown prince's reputation is at home or abroad, hasn't his reputation increased?
Perhaps after announcing their punishment, Prince Matthias might show some sympathy.
"Well, just show a little bit." Matthias secretly said joyfully: "A bigger fingernail is enough."
As for De Rossi's wealth to pay off his debts, neither Prince Matthias nor King Inholt paid much attention.
Meaning, just pay them back in proportion.
They wouldn't make up for the holes that De Rossi and his sons squandered by themselves. The loan to him was originally deserved.
Who made them covet the high interest promised by De Rossi and his son~!
Although the United Nations is a little troublesome~EbookFREE.me~, it is just troublesome. I believe a few dollars can be settled.
The talents of the debt committee will not care about the life and death of several creditors who do not have enough money.
"Your father and son are simply helpless~!" Inholt looked at De Rossi's unrepentant appearance and was very unhappy. He waved his hand and said: "You..."
Young Master De Rossi suddenly raised his voice: "Uncle, please wait."
"Huh?" King Inholt's hand stopped in the air, staring at Lord De Rossi.
De Rossi took a step forward, stood in front of his father, smiled slightly, and said loudly: "Uncle, I think you have misunderstood. I have already brought the tax due.
As for the debt..."
Young Master De Rossi showed a confident smile and said confidently: "I can solve it within today, and give everyone who is waiting to ask me for money."
