Cosma Empire

Du Lin actually brought a lot of odds and ends with him, such as some trinkets, such as gemstone buttons, which are very common. Although every tailor uses his best reputation to ensure that the clothes he sew will not have any problems, but sometimes there will be some small mistakes, such as when he is participating in an event, he suddenly finds that there are few buttons on his clothes What if I got one?

Most aristocrats suffer from an indescribable psychosis, and are very ill. They don't think about what a gentleman or lady with status will do in a place where others can't see. They don't pay much attention to these people's private life, including social issues such as morality. Under the premise of their own interests, they have an indifferent attitude towards the lives of others. But there is another situation, even if there is no entanglement of interests, they will be very concerned and concerned, that is, whether this gentleman or lady has done something that is detrimental to their dignity.

This inexplicable mentality of liking to see other people's jokes has caused countless wars between nobles in history, perhaps because someone's clothes are missing a button, or someone's shoes have some dust on them. Then they started laughing and sharing their discoveries—look how ridiculous that guy was missing a button, considering he's an aristocrat who doesn't pay attention to his appearance like a mud dog !

Then war broke out.

They're all crazy!

Therefore, in order to avoid these problems to the greatest extent, nobles generally put one or two gem buckles in the pockets or bags of clothes worn in formal social occasions. These gem buckles can play a big role when necessary. , Dühring also has such buttons in his pocket, or two.

But giving the princess jewel buckle... It didn't seem very good. He touched his pocket and took out a pack of cigarettes and a lighter.

If the princess is not a princess but a prince, a cigarette may be a good gift. Du Lin would also say that he would light the first fire of life for the prince, but it was a girl, a princess, and he did so It would be too rude.

In the end, among wallets, coins, jewel clasps, cigarettes and lighters, Dooling chose the lighter. It was a purely handmade sapphire mirror bright lighter, the market price...wrong, there is no market price for this thing, it is completely a custom product, costing Dulin 1,300 yuan, although it is expensive, it is very comfortable to use.

He checked the lighter, stood in the corner and wiped it with a napkin, then put it in his pocket with satisfaction.

When the birthday party proceeds to the gift-giving link, the guests start offering gifts from the oldest to the youngest according to their titles. Of course, Magus ranked first. What he gave the princess was a very beautiful handmade swan feather pen. A foot-long pure white swan feather lay in a red velvet box, and the bright red velvet set off the whiteness of the feathers even more.

The golden nib and the tiny signature on the wings are the best notes on the origin of this swan feather fountain pen.

This is a product handmade by a master. The price is about 100 yuan. It is not very practical, but it is very qualified as a gift, and its original function is to give gifts.

"I give you this pen..." Magus put the gift box into the hands of the princess, "I hope Her Royal Highness can find her true self in the ocean of knowledge and discover all the secrets of this world. Knowledge is the ladder of human progress, and it will make people more perfect, which is what I expect."

Her Royal Highness pretended to be very surprised and took the gift box from Magus, with a deeply moved expression on her face, "Your Excellency, thank you very much for your gift, I like it very much, and I will definitely remember your gift. advice,"

It's a very touching picture, but Du Lin can't feel anything moving. If someone gave him a pen and told him to study hard on his most important day, he would definitely not laugh so happily. It would be fake at first glance.

After waiting for more than 30 or 40 people to give presents, Magus gently touched Du Lin with his elbow, and said in a low voice, "It's your turn."

"Me? Am I not the last one?" Du Lin knew that he had said something stupid when he saw Magus's expression as soon as he finished speaking. He walked towards Her Royal Highness without waiting for Magus to say anything. . He was brought by Magus, and he is also the most talked about young man in the aristocratic circle. He is not as good as the real nobles in front of him, almost all of them are marquis and earls, but compared to viscounts or barons, Still have to be stronger. Whether it's the face for Magus or the opportunity he won for himself, in short, he ranked between the earl and the viscount to offer his gift.

When he walked in front of His Royal Highness, the smell of milk came to his nostrils. He was in a trance for a moment, then took out his lighter from his pocket and handed it over.

The palace was quiet, and even Her Royal Highness looked at the lighter in Du Lin's hand inexplicably, and took it after a pause of about a second or two. Some nobles around have started to discuss in a low voice, they don't care who you are, and it's more like a tradition for these people to be unscrupulous about watching similar jokes. Perhaps the first root cause of ridiculing other nobles for the detriment of decency many years ago was political service, but today, nobles mocking nobles has become a tradition out of thin air.

Maggs is looking forward to the next performance of Durin. He knows that Durin brought a book in, and saw Durin secretly throwing the book into the trash can. He wants to see how Durin can reverse the current situation. come over.

"This is... a lighter, right?" Her Royal Highness commented on the delicate little thing in her hands in an uncertain tone, and some nobles even laughed out loud.

Du Lin was very calm, without any wavering in his eyes, he nodded slightly, and said with a smile, "Yes, this is a lighter..." His voice gradually became louder, and he cast his gaze on those The nobleman who was laughing at him even raised his eyebrows, showing a subtle provocative expression, "But it's not a lighter!" Du Lin reached out and took the lighter back from Her Royal Highness's hand, and flicked it lightly. The canopy, with a special ding, spread for a long time, and slowly disappeared into people's ears. Those who were laughing at him and talking quietly also closed their mouths and looked at him.

He rubbed his thumbs, and a flame appeared on the lighter. He chuckled and turned to look at Her Royal Highness, "This is a flame, Your Highness, it is a lighter, but it is not exactly a lighter. I believe you And all the ladies and gentlemen here are rich in knowledge, knowing that the development of human beings begins with the first ray of human-made flames, and it is the flames that ignite the long and bright dawn of human civilization."

"I give you a lighter in the hope that when you become an adult, you will have your own dawn, light up your future life with your own hands, and guide the correct direction for the maze of life full of temptations."

After Du Lin's words, no one around could laugh out loud. Although it was just a lighter, as Du Lin said, it was not exactly a lighter. Magus shook his head with a smile, this little bastard His quick wit, expressiveness and appeal are really terrifying, and his strongest point is his self-confidence. He was confident that he could solve all these problems, and he must have spread that confidence to others, and maybe that's why he was always successful, because he made everyone believe in what he believed in.

Du Lin continued, "Flame represents light and purity. It is like you, without the slightest impurity. God once sent down divine fire to cleanse the world, and I send you this little flame today in the hope that It can sweep away the darkness and evil for you, and protect your future life..." He put the hood back on, then put the lighter into the princess's palm, and held her palm so that she could hold it tightly That lighter, "If my good blessings are puzzled and ridiculed by those who are puzzled and ridiculed, I hope you don't care about those dull people's jealousy of wisdom. The beauty belongs to you, Your Royal Highness!"

"Is it...?" Her Royal Highness looked at the lighter she was clutching inexplicably. Received the best gift!"

Du Lin bowed slightly, "My honor, Your Highness!"

Then he took two steps back, turned around and walked towards Muggs, standing beside Muggs, there was some applause when the surrounding came, no matter it was to cheer for Her Royal Highness, after all, she said that this was the best she received today It is still a gift for Du Lin's response just now. In short, if we must choose some eye-catching characters tonight, then Du Lin will definitely be one of them.

"It's a wonderful performance. To be honest, I was moved by what you said. Did you think of it yourself?" Magus found that Du Lin could always give him some novel performances, just like those words just now, with flames To use it as a metaphor for civilization, and to use flames to protect the mind of Her Royal Highness, this is definitely not something that ordinary people can think of in a short while. Some people may have said similar things, but not all words are suitable for today's occasion. He gave Du Lin a score in his heart. If the full score is 100 points, he gave Du Lin 99 points, and he gave one point less for his own pride, because he is the one who can get 100 points.

Du Lin squinted at Magus, and laughed twice, "I don't know, when I stood there, when I faced the surrounding environment, I said what I wanted to say the most, the last Sincere words."

"If there is any reason, then this is the will of the gods. Of course, you can also translate it as the meaning of God."
