Chapter 90
Chapter 89
The fact that Xia Zoe fell into the water could not help but make the servants in the castle extremely nervous, especially Udit.
Although Xia Zoe changed his drenched coat and shoes immediately after returning to the wind, and returning from the ship to the castle, it was only a few small sneezes, but it still made Udit very tension.
Immediately after he returned to the castle, he asked Yadai to fetch a package of herbal medicine for colds and cook it.
Xia Zoe returned to the study after drinking and ordered Walker to investigate the matter thoroughly.
The shipyard is now in its infancy. Shipmen are always hiring again and again, and they are often short of manpower.
In the two months since he returned from the Anas Empire, the shipyard has recruited a total of three people, all because of the tighter schedule of building the Chengfeng and the need for a lot of help.
The last recruitment was a month ago.
It can be seen that this group of people mixed into the shipyard and lurked directly for more than a month without being discovered by anyone. They were not exposed until the first sea trial of Chengfeng.
—How can there be a more suitable opportunity than doing hands on the vast sea.
If it weren’t for the power of the pope, the grand duke, and the leader, the strength of the trio was unexpected.
Otherwise, just relying on these low-resistance boatmen on the ship is really not enough to see, that is really bad luck.
Even if he jumped into the sea, it was just to ensure the safety of Shazoi alone.
The shipyard must fill in the form before recruiting workers—name, age, address, etc.
This is also the rule that Xia Zuoyi has set long ago, just to avoid not having a detailed and clear investigation after something happened.
Under such circumstances, this group of murderers even got into the shipyard.
It can be seen that the participation of some relevant personnel is bound to be involved in this matter, and it cannot be said that no nobles or officials who have a relationship with the shipyard should be involved.
The most important thing was that there were still three Segalot on board at that time.
Samuel said to Xia Zoe afterwards-he saw half of this group rushing towards Lord Duke and Lord Leader. Seeing the fierce energy, he absolutely wanted their lives.
Xia Zuoyi thought that maybe this group of murderers was not only targeting him.
After taking the order, Walker did not dare to delay, interrogating, investigating, arresting related suspects, etc…
Three days later, the detailed ins and outs of the matter were placed on Xia Zoe’s desk, and the three of Segalot were also sitting in the study.
This time the incident can be briefly summarized as-the remnants of the royal family of the Anas Empire and the greedy nobles in the Desinian territory secretly united and planned the assassination for the huge benefits of sugar in the Desinian territory.
They look for opportunities, one is to deal with Xia Zoe, and the other is to wait for an opportunity to kill Orville and Archibald.
And it also involved a detailed work from the Saint Airo Empire, but it was convenient to commit suicide overnight without waiting for Walker’s interrogation.
The remaining royal family members of the Anas Empire have nowhere to go after the empire is split.
They had noticed during the turmoil in the royal city-the royal city was blocked and no one could leave, but the Desinian lord was exceptionally special, and the fleet sailed away from the port smoothly.
It was written down by someone with a heart for a while.
The remaining members of the royal family waited until the royal city was finally unblocked. After they managed to hide their names and appearances and escaped from the Anas Empire, they chose to come to the Desinian territory and managed to reach a deal with this alien nobleman. .
The original content of the transaction was—their men lurked into the shipyard with the help of the nobles, and waited for the right time to hold Xia Zuoyi and force him to tell the secret recipe of sugar.
Despite using any means, if you resist, there is no problem even if your life is left.
This strange nobleman is the mayor of a city. He not only covets the secret recipe of sugar, but also wants to sit on a higher position…
But he didn’t expect that the Grand Duke of Archiayoli and Archibald Cavendish also came to Desinian territory—the murderers lurking in the shipyard were only targeted at Shazoi.
But seeing that such a good opportunity for the sea trial was before them, and the three of them were all on the boat, they couldn’t help taking it anymore.
However, this group of people miscalculated the skills of Orville and Archibald, including the Pope, dealing with them is not a problem at all.
Although some boat workers were injured in this danger, they were not fatal.
Generally speaking, except for Xia Zuoyue who took the initiative to jump back to the sea, nothing happened.
As for how this alien nobleman got in touch with the people of the Saint Airo Empire—according to the investigation, it was because one of his brothers was the mistress of a powerful widow in the empire.
This widow is also a means. Not only does she raise her lover, but she also has something to do with a marquis noble…
Among them, it is not clear to say that Wanwanuouo, but it is indeed this marquis noble who is thinking about the secret recipe of Xia Zuoyi’s sugar.
When Xia Zoe asked the nobleman’s name, he was sitting on the sofa combing the smooth hair of brown sugar. He didn’t react to Walker’s words until 098 reminded him in the system.
Walker: “The name of this nobleman is Gary Phoebe.”
Xia Zoe nodded lightly.
098 saw the host’s little head tilted and saw that the host didn’t react much, and couldn’t help but remind: [Host, Gary Phoebe is the father of Shamel Phoebe. 】
Shamel Phoebe?
The name is a bit familiar…
Xia Zoe frowned and thought, and then listened to 098—【Samel Phoebe is the heroine, host. 】
Xia Zuoy suddenly realized that he almost clapped his hands in surprise.
For a long time, he has forgotten that there is still a growing hostess Mary Su in the distant Saint Airo Empire.
The description of the heroine in the novel is that she has shiny silver-white hair and rare pink eyes, innocent and romantic, lively and cute.
Her voice is very beautiful, like a smart bird singing, her face is very white, like the soft petals of the white **** flower Berlanka…
Xia Zoe saw here: “…”
Can he not imagine how pink a person’s eyes are, pink eyes?
Xia Zoe also had to sigh that this world indeed evolved from books. The hair and eyes of Killing Matt are synonymous with beauty.
Orville stopped when he saw him touching the brown sugar, his expression was obviously distracted, and he couldn’t help asking.
Xia Zuoyi followed the prestige, and his gaze fell on the archduke’s silver hair and light gray eyes. Before the archduke was puzzled, his gaze swept over the crown of the pope and the leader of the chamber of commerce one by one.
—Well, Archibald’s blonde and green eyes are normal.
The thick paw pads of brown sugar pressed against Xia Zoe’s hand, and he whimpered slightly, tilting his head as if asking-“Why don’t you keep touching?”
Xia Zuoy lowered his head and squeezed the small round ears of brown sugar, and combed down the hair on the top of his head and neck…
Brown Sugar’s hair is as smooth and beautiful as black satin, and his hands are full of strong muscles. When he has enough enjoyment, Brown Sugar gets up lazily, goes to the briquettes and lie down.
Xia Zuoyi grabbed the few black hairs that had come down and put them into a square wooden box-all of them were the hairs that were collected when combing the brown sugar.
There are four other boxes-briquettes, snow balls, egg yolks, and green hair feathers.
He has been collecting since he was a child and has made many felt toys pierced with needles from the hair that fell from the plush.
The feathers dropped by Qingtuan are beautiful accessories, and they are now hung on the head of his bed and on the large wooden frame for sleeping exclusively for Qingtuan.
Xia Zuoyi glanced at the small green dots swimming in the system ocean map again, wondering what the glutinous rice **** could let him collect.
The causes and consequences of the whole matter have been sorted out, and all that should be dealt with has been dealt with.
But there are also people beyond reach.
For example, Gary Phoebe, the father of the marquis and mistress of the Saint Airo Empire.
Xia Zoe believes in revenge.
Although the Lord Marquis had just sent a scrutiny to listen to the news, he was also involved in it after all. If he let it go, Xia Zuoy would be very unhappy.
He remembered his plan in the Anas Empire to fight against the king and the greedy nobles—
At this moment, he said to Orville and Archibald: “After the Anas Empire split, the two empires have since become one.”
“The Saint Airo Empire also has great ambitions. Previously, it was because of the existence of the Anas Empire that they had nothing to do with each other. Now…”
Xia Zuoyi slowly said: “Aren’t you afraid that the Saint Airo Empire will annex the Akiyori Territory and the Anas Kingdom one by one?”
The strength of the divided empire will definitely be greatly reduced.
Saigalote has nothing to do with him and did not say anything.
When Xia Zoe was putting away the brown sugar hair, Orville asked curiously what he was doing, and Xia Zoe asked Udit to bring the box containing the felt toys.
Saigalote is now picking up and watching one by one.
The same is true for Orville.
But after Xia Zoe spoke, he focused his attention. At this moment, he held a black and white kitten in his hand and said, “Alliance?”
As expected to be the Grand Duke who held great power at a young age, he immediately saw the purpose of Xia Zuoy’s questioning.
—Yes, it is an alliance.
The Territory of Desinia, Akiyoli and the Kingdom of Anas formed an alliance. In this way, even if the St. Airo Empire gave birth to a throbbing mind, it had to stay dormant for a while.
Most importantly, in the next period of time, Xia Zoe didn’t want to have more troubles.
He needs a calm environment to continue to develop his territory.
He always has a hunch-when the heroine reaches adulthood, that is, when the plot in the novel unfolds, he will definitely meet the heroine Samuel Phoebe, and then…
Xia Zuoyi looked at the plot deviation value at the top right of the system interface, which was already 45 percent at this time.
But this is not insurance.
He needs to improve the progress as soon as possible, and Samuel’s search for the New World and large-yield crops must also be implemented…
The other is-if beet sugar is produced on a large scale, it will inevitably bring in a lot of labor.
Once this happens, it will no longer be possible to strictly guard against the secret recipe control, so the method of making sugar is definitely no longer a secret.
Xia Zuoyi never intended to take sugar as his own.
And white sugar, like salt, should be a necessity in people’s lives, and the price drop is an inevitable law.
But at least until then, he has a bold plan to implement.
Xia Zuoyi: Cheating people make me happy.
