Chapter 485 The lethality of the crown prince (3)
Faced with Ferdinand's shamelessness, Hessen retreated.
Of course, his reason for leaving early was very high-sounding - he was going to find enough servants, maids, and various craftsmen for the Apophis Palace.
The huge Apophis Palace has 666 rooms in the main building. The other annexes have a total of more than 2,300 large and small rooms. In addition to stables, cellars, huge gardens, etc., this is a real giant palace.
To maintain the operation of this palace to a minimum, at least hundreds of maids, hundreds of servants, and dozens of professional grooms, gardeners, carpenters, etc.
Of course, there is no concept of "barely maintaining" in Hessian dictionary.
He must make the Apophis Palace shine with its peak, and he will surely fill all the manpower needed for this palace to the maximum extent, and whether it is a maid or a servant, he must choose the best.
As the New Year approaches, it is not an easy task to hire enough suitable personnel from Fort Heidra at this time.
But fortunately, a while ago, the Al Church killed a large number of nobles and playboys in Heida Fort, which led to a series of power changes in some noble houses in Heida Fort.
When some people take office, there will naturally be some people leaving the market in disgrace.
Among these people, there are many good people, and the Vitu family can take over.
So, after Hesen said goodbye to Ferdinand seriously, he ran away from the No. 1 restaurant in a very embarrassed manner.
Ferdinand stood up, waved the wine bottle, and shouted at Hesen: "Dear Hesen, we hit it off at first sight. I feel that there is a sense of familiarity between you and me."
"Hey, how about five million golden marks? Think about it, let your daughter marry an imperial prince...it is very likely to be the future imperial emperor..."
Hessen slipped away.
Slide away in shame.
Ferdinand sat down a little annoyed, grabbed a fried egg with his hand and stuffed it into his mouth. While chewing the food, he looked at Joe unhappily and complained: "For your family, what is a mere five million or ten million?"
Qiao was also annoyed and looked at the very unethical old guy unhappily: "This is not a matter of money."
Ferdinand quickly understood what Joe meant. At this point, he was quite alert and keen: "Ah, are you saying that my sons are not worthy of your sister?"
Joe thought about Sallyan and Conrad…and nodded quickly.
"So, where are my grandchildren?" Ferdinand said quickly, "Well, you have seen Ferricette, you have conflicts; you have seen Magnan, you have conflicts; Well, that little bastard, he is not a good thing... forget it."
"But, Salian's eldest son Isaac, was a good boy... He was not in the imperial capital, he served in the front line of the Lanyin Corridor, he was about the same age as your brother Gorkin, but he was about to be promoted to major general."
"Well, of course, Isaac is married, but this is not a problem... His current wife, her father, is a shabby old man who has no real power and relies on a few rural fiefs to earn rent...I can let Isaac divorce his wife..."
Ferdinand looked at Joe happily: "Salian may be the next imperial emperor. Then, if Salian succeeds to the throne, there is no doubt that Isaac will become his heir, and Makai will have no chance at all."
"Joe, ten million gold marks, let your sister become the future empire queen, don't you think this is a very cost-effective investment?"
Qiao lowered his head, drank milk in big gulps, and tore up his salty elbows.
Ferdinand sighed, and he muttered helplessly: "Well, then, there is another way, Joe, give me ten million gold marks, I'll let you marry my granddaughter, Sallyan's daughter...Grey."
"That's a smart, clever, beautiful girl... She's very perfect, really, I won't lie to you at all..."
Mr. Si Gengs sat quietly in the corner of the restaurant. He finally couldn't stand Ferdinand's nonsense. He coughed softly, stood up, and walked to Qiao.
"Joe, after you fell asleep yesterday, the order from His Highness Salian was sent. These days, before the outside is pacified, you are responsible for protecting His Highness Ferdinand and not letting him leave the Apophis Palace one step."
"In addition, Mr. Gorkin, he stayed with the Army Department these days, and he sent a message back and said that you don't have to worry about him. At the same time, he asked you to pay attention to your safety. If you want to go out, you must bring enough people."
Qiao was eating lunch with big mouthfuls and nodding his head.
He has to go out and he has a lot to do. He has to bring enough manpower, of course. Think of Saint Attila, think of Rafa, and think of what he wants to do next. How can he not bring enough manpower?
"Mr. Sigens, please send me a letter to His Highness Salian, saying that I have perfectly integrated the second Dark Elves potion. I need the third-level potion later, or even the fourth-level potion, or the fifth-level potion."
Qiao looked up at Mr. Si Gengsi: "I've been so busy these days, and I haven't had time to mention this."
Mr. Si Gengsi looked at Qiao deeply: "You have completely absorbed the Dark Elves potion? This is so fast, Qiao, your talent is amazingly good. Very good, I'll send someone out now."
Qiao lowered his head and continued to feast on.
Ferdinand muttered, and he quickly grabbed Joe's wrist with his greasy right hand.
A deep and cold wave, carrying almost frozen human body to the soul, and at the same time, the power of endless chaos, madness, twisting, and greedy will was like a thin iron wire, piercing deep into Qiao's body and quickly circled around half of his body.
The crimson force in Joe's body was quickly collapsed inward like a frightened beast, avoiding the cold air that Ferdinand threw in.
This cold air swirled around the four qi veins that Qiao had already opened, then swept across Qiao's sea of strength and energy, and then quickly rushed back to Ferdinand's hand.
"It's really... not bad." Ferdinand looked at Joe in surprise: "It's very good, Joe... Your talent is extraordinary... Well, don't you think about my granddaughter? Do you know? In Heidra Fort, there are so many outstanding young people who are almost crazy for Gray."
Qiao Fei quickly stuffed all kinds of food into his stomach. After he killed all the food he sent out like a wind and cloud, he burped with satisfaction.
During this process, Ferdinand rambled and sold to Joe the royal noble girls he could remember.
However, the focus of his sales was his own granddaughter Gray.
As for the other royal princesses, they were slightly a little far apart from Ferdinand and were not very close...
Qiao had just eaten his fill and was about to escape from the old crown prince who had been nagging for noon. A guard from the Vitu family walked into the restaurant with a very complicated expression: "Young master, outside, someone claims to be the creditor of His Highness Ferdinand. He came to the door... to ask for debt."
Joe opened his mouth wide and looked at Ferdinand, who had a twisted face in horror.
Ferdinand sat on the chair, like a child who failed the exam and was criticized by the teacher. He twisted his body left and right uneasy. He widened his eyes and shouted with anger: "How is there no, it's impossible... Joe, I know you have a lot of people in the Emperor... Ha, didn't my father give you a lot of royal knights?"
"Go, that guy outside, no matter who he is, he dares to frame a noble prince of the empire... Qiao, chop him up for me and throw it into Lanyin River to feed the fish..."
Joe touched his chin vigorously and looked at Ferdinand with interest: "Aha, it's interesting, so interesting... Please come in with the gentleman who claims to be the creditor, and by the way, let everyone prepare for battle... take us to the living room."
The family guard was stunned and laughed dryly: "Young Master, what's the living room?"
Qiao spread his hands and looked at Mr. Si Gengsi who was standing aside.
Mr. Si Gengsi frowned and thought hard for a while before hesitating: "No. 3 living room, I remember it is called the 'Crystal' living room in the introduction manual of Apophis Palace."
Half a quarter of an hour later, the ‘Crystal’ living room of the Palace of Apophis.
As its name suggests, this luxurious living room that can easily accommodate nearly 50 people, the main decorative materials are neatly cut natural crystal stones. The floor-to-ceiling windows facing the garden are inlaid with huge natural crystals, and on the other three walls are colorful crystal blocks, inlaid into a winding giant snake.
A middle-aged man with yellow hair, yellow beard, and a very coquettish beard, with a perfume smell, wearing a frivolous white background and pink striped dress, completely defiant of the traditional aesthetics of the Delun Empire, was standing in the corner of the crystal hall, gathering in front of a piece of crystal as big as a palm, muttering in a low voice.
When Qiao quietly pushed the door open, he happened to hear the coquettish man whispering to himself.
"Yes, the natural crystal of the Emmas mine."
“The transportation costs are very high when transporting from the Papaya subcontinent.”
"Hiss... This is still a piece of green ghost hair crystal, and this carving is done by a master."
"The market price of such a green ghost will not be less than five hundred goldmarks."
"Oh, oh, these three walls..."
The man looked at the crystal blocks with faint light on the huge walls on three sides in a blurry look.
Qiao coughed gently: "Sir?"
The coquettish man took two steps back suddenly, like a frightened grasshopper, jumped out of the distance in two steps and quickly moved away from the corner of the wall just now. He touched the hem of his clothes that had slightly wrinkled because of his movements, and turned around with a smile.
"Marquis Amori, you can call me Marquis Amori."
"I'm very sorry for visiting...but, may I ask, His Highness Ferdinand, he?"
Ferdinand, wearing a nightgown, had a gloomy face and walked into the Crystal Hall with a bottle of wine.
The moment he entered the door, his gloomy face suddenly became extremely bright. He smiled brightly, opened his hands and greeted Amory: "Ah, Amory, my friend, I haven't seen you for nearly half a year. Are you okay? Ah, what a coincidence, I saw you here?"
Amori shrugged his shoulders and opened his arms to meet Ferdinand.
"Ferdinand, my friend, you didn't mean to hide from me for half a year, right?"
