"Hello, Duke Smallt."

"Sir Shi, why are you free to visit me today? You don't notify me in advance so that I can prepare."

Duke Smaller enthusiastically welcomed the annals of history into the castle. In terms of identity alone, Smaller's status in Wutang is also considered a prince, while the annals of history is only considered an envoy.

However, the forces represented by the two are different. Smaller is only a lord of the Kingdom of Scotland, but history books represent the Wu Tang.

Even though Smallt had never been to Wutang, he had heard of Wutang's prosperity countless times.

Not to mention the gap between Wu Tang and Scotland, the consulate alone had 1,500 troops, but Smallt, as the lord, had only 3,000 troops.

In terms of combat effectiveness, his 3,000 men may not be able to defeat the 1,500 garrisons in the consulate.

So many times, Smaller also seeks help from the annals of history.

For example, if there are some gangsters and robbers around, Smaller asked for help in the history books.

Of course, Shi Zawen is very willing to help Smallt, and in order to promote the relationship between the two sides, Shi Zawen comes to Smallt's castle every few days.

By the way, small-mouthed hopes for Wu Tang’s things.

Whether it is food, drink, or use, Smallt can't let it go.

For example, a mechanical pocket watch that was given to me in history last time, Smallt hung it all day long in his arms, and always took it out to see the time, and more often he showed off his pocket watch among the nobles.

History Book put the wine in his hand in his hand on the butler beside Smaller: "Butler, I'll drink this with your master tonight."

"Affect the order, Lord Shi." Smallt's housekeeper was already very familiar with the annals of history, and he treated the annals as respected as his master.

"This is?"

"This is a reward from His Majesty to me. It is not produced by any manufacturer. It is specially brewed by the royal family. Therefore, there is only exquisite packaging without any manufacturer's logo. I drink it alone and bring this wine to drink with you."

Smaller was confused when he heard this, but he clearly understood that this wine was not something that ordinary people could drink. It was given to the history books by the empress of Wu Tang, and sent it from Wu Tang to the place where he traveled thousands of miles away.

Sometimes, drinking is not the taste of drinking, but the meaning of wine and its positioning.

Especially for a great nobleman like Smallt who cares very much about his identity, what he needs is the best.

And this wine can obviously highlight his identity and status. The wine of the Empress of Wu Tang is an honor that other nobles do not have.

Not to mention anything else, just talking about this packaging gives people an extraordinary feeling.

In the crystal clear wine bottle, the wine like clear water is like the God's grace.

Just this wine bottle is probably worth a lot, let alone this wine.

At the dinner table, the two had a great time talking and raised their glasses to drink together.

Smaller placed the mouth of the cup before breathing, and inhaling gently, sucking the strong aroma of wine.

This is the Eastern liquor. Unlike wheat, fruit wine and wine, the Eastern liquor has a more pure and rich aroma, and the white wine in this cup is a perfect wine.

The entrance was a little sweet at first, but then it was a strong fragrance that penetrated the brain and the spicy taste of the dry mouth. After entering the abdomen, it was like a small fire, and all the hairs on the body stood up.

Beauty! It’s indescribable.

In the past, Smallt often heard the history books that this wine is like a beauty.

Smallt hadn't understood before, but now he understands it.

This glass of wine is a beautiful woman, a good wine!

It's so beautiful...

Smallt has been fascinated by this fine wine, and it is said that wine is the depraved blood of Satan.

If the blood of the demon is so wonderful, then I am willing to fall into hell forever without seeking liberation.

"Smoult, your territory seems a little messy lately." History Book said casually.

"What? Is it because the businessmen of Wutang encountered some trouble?" Smallt was shocked and guessed in his heart that he had always treated Wutang's businessmen well and had never heard of any problems. What does this mean when asked in history books?

Of course, Smallte was able to descend on the merchants of Wutang, not because he had a deep personal relationship with historical books, but because the merchants of Wutang brought a large amount of goods and also brought him generous benefits.

Before the Wutang merchants appeared in his territory, he could not even support an army of two thousand people, but now he wants to expand his army to ten thousand people.

"Oh... don't think too much. His Majesty recently asked me that she was planning to open up the European market. Because I have a deep relationship with you, I plan to cooperate with Edinburgh first. If conditions permit, more Wutang merchants will come here."

"What?" Smaller stood up excitedly, forgetting that they were now at the banquet table: "Sorry... I've lost my composure, Lord Shi, are you talking about it true? Will there be more Wu Tang merchants coming to Edinburgh?"

"This matter has not been confirmed yet. I need to ensure that Wu Tang's civil rights will not be infringed, so prior investigation is still necessary."

"Mr. Shi, I can assure you that Wutang's merchants will receive the best care for their business here and will never suffer any loss."

"Of course, I believe in Duke Smaller's promise very much, but some things are not enough if I believe it. After all, I need to convince my Majesty to go to His Majesty. His Majesty naturally has no doubts about Duke Smaller. What really makes His Majesty hesitate is..."

Speaking of this, the history book paused and looked around.

The butler who was standing aside to serve the two people took the initiative to bow to them: "Two sirs, if nothing happens, the villain will go outside first. Please notify the villain if you have any instructions."

Seeing the butler leaving, Shi Zuwen said: "Duke Smolt, I believe you also know that there are some pests in Europe, and those pests that Your Majesty is worried about."

Of course Smaller knew who the pests in the annals of history were.

Isn't it the Holy See...

However, when it comes to the Holy See, Smallt also has a headache because he has no power to restrain the Holy See.

And those greedy bugs always like to act recklessly and completely ignore the consequences.

Extortion of merchants and nobles, even those of Wutang are no exception.

Smallt hated those people in the Holy See, but it was not convenient for him to say these words.

In fact, there is more than just him who has this idea. Almost no lord has never been poisoned by the Holy See.

But everyone is like Smallt, and dare not speak out.

"You also know that if His Majesty feels satisfied this time, then he will no longer be the kind of small businessman he used to be. There will be a big chamber of commerce coming to Europe and Edinburgh."

"Big businessman? How big is a businessman? Are these Wutang merchants in Edinburgh not big enough now?"

"These merchants in Edinburgh are just small shrimps. The big merchants I mentioned are the kind of super merchants who hold tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of taels of silver. Super merchants are not comparable to those small shrimps." Shi Lewen said calmly: "But the identities of these merchants are also very noble. If there are some situations that the Duke of Smallt cannot control here, I will not say that my official position will be difficult to protect, and it may even be furious to the emperor."

Smaller also understood the concerns of the history books when he heard this.

The Holy See is not just a missionary. When they discovered that rich people were blackmailed first.

If they fail to extort, they will become robbers and kidnappers. There is nothing they dare not do anyway.

Whether it is a businessman or aristocrat, in their eyes, it is a money tree.

If Smallte could not guarantee that the Holy See would not come to cause trouble, I am afraid that the Empress Wu Tang would not let her businessmen come here to take risks.

However, when he thought of the benefits that those merchants could bring, Smallt found it difficult to calm down.

Nowadays, Edinburgh has attracted a large number of people and businessmen, because the merchants from Wutang do business here, and then merchants from other countries also gather here.

Of course, it is ultimately because there is a consulate in Wutang here to protect the interests and safety of Wutang merchants.

With Smaller's protection, no major and uncontrollable incidents have occurred at present.

But if the more powerful and rich businessmen come here, the Holy See will inevitably covet the huge interests therein.

Moreover, with the greed of the Holy See and their usual style, they will not wait for those merchants to create benefits, they will definitely fish in a way that will be exhausted.

"Sir Shi, the Holy See represents God after all..." Smallt said vaguely. His simple words contained a lot of subtext.

"The Holy See represents God, but God has abandoned them long ago." The history books are not believers, so he doesn't need to take so much care.

"Only they know whether God has abandoned them."

"The Vatican's activities in Edinburgh seem to have increased a lot recently... I wonder what they have been doing recently?" asked Shilewen.

A hint of gloom appeared on Smallt's face, as if he had thought of something bad.

"Duke of Smallt..."

Seeing Smaller distracted, the history books reminded Smaller.

"Recently, the Holy See seems to be carrying out some plans... They are catching civilians in a big way."

"Catch civilians? There should be a reason, right?"

"Their reason is that the local witch was discovered, and that everyone else had been corrupted by the witch, and everyone needed to be purified."

It is not uncommon to capture witches or pagans, but most of the time it is just to capture witches and will not involve people around you.

But this time it was different. The number of people arrested this time was very large, and it even began to affect the stability of the situation in Edinburgh.

Some villages were directly cleaned up and turned into empty villages.

"Duke Small, the Holy See has sometimes done too much. If you always use this attitude, it is probably difficult for us to promote cooperation this time."

"Then... what Lord Shi means?"

"At least you have to figure out the intentions of the Holy See. I don't want us Wutang people to encounter the same situation as your people here." (To be continued.)
