Rebirth of the Viking King

Chapter 629 52

Gold flowers and copper leaves are the currency in circulation in the Principality of France, especially the golden gorse carved into exquisite flowers. It was the exquisite currency specially designed by Mutu, the "King of Earthsea", when he ruled.

Compared with the currencies in circulation in other kingdoms, each gorse coin carved with 50 grams of gold with 7 petals and 3 stamens can be called a work of art.

Most countries forge gold into ring-shaped gold coins precisely because this is the most efficient way. However, Mutu has his own special ideas.

He thought that if he could use the royal power to force one-tenth of the craftsmen in the kingdom to forge currency day and night.

The overall craftsmanship level of the kingdom will be greatly improved, and the improvement of forging level will subtly make all other aesthetic standards improve by leaps and bounds.

From the architectural sculptures to the daily clothing of residents and even the language of cooking, the French have completely gotten rid of the vulgar appearance of their ancestors, the Gauls, and have become the most aesthetic nation in the Western Continent.

Loki captured Paris and established the Kingdom of Normandy. The exquisite French craftsmanship was not destroyed by him, but was preserved.

In the future, the Viking princess "Mehlantine O'Sullivan" made a comeback and returned to Constantinople. Her "Skylark Chamber of Commerce" uses a full set of French currency.

In the city of Paris, if ordinary people could get a gorse coin during the transaction, most people would be reluctant to spend it and would choose to keep it carefully.

The moment the Sheriff took the dough, he had already seen the delicate flowers pressed under the papyrus. He rolled his eyelids and looked to the opposite side. He carefully observed the white-faced boy opposite.

According to visual inspection, he is only twelve or thirteen years old at most, but the momentum in his movements, the generosity in his moves, and the seemingly sincere smile in the corner of his eyes. With a population of one million, there is only one person in Constantinople who can act like this.

Phoenix Starrag, the only son of the Viking princess "Meherentine O'Sullivan".

Seeing the Sheriff guarding the gorse coin, Phoenix stretched out his big hand and pulled him into his arms. The blood of the ancestors rushing in his body makes him close to the size of an adult even though he is only 13 years old.

"Haha, brother, stay out of sight."

Phoenix reached into his arms and took out a stack of documents drawn on fine wood pulp paper.

"These brothers are powerful warriors that I specially dug from my father's hands. The celebration ceremony of my King Michael III will start tomorrow, and a 10-day celebration will be held in the Colosseum to commemorate me. Wang Qingsheng.”

"These are the heroes I secretly found. You know, you can't let too many people know about this kind of thing."

Phoenix had just finished speaking when the Sheriff immediately understood what he meant.

Then he stuffed the gorse coin into his arms with peace of mind.

The traditional celebration of the birthdays of successive kings of Rome was to open the Colosseum and hold a 10-day gladiatorial event. During this period, large trading companies, local nobles, and wealthy merchant lords could form their own gladiatorial teams and enter the arena to participate in gladiatorial battles.

After 10 days, the last champion team will receive a special reward. They will appear as guests with the lord at the king's birthday banquet and enjoy the right to drink with the royal family.

This is a very special honor.

For businessmen from humble beginnings, this meant breaking down class barriers. If you can please the royal family through good performance and get the opportunity for further interactions, it is almost equivalent to an opportunity falling from the sky.

All large chambers of commerce will make every effort to prepare for the annual gladiatorial event.

As one of the large-scale chambers of commerce that has grown rapidly in recent years, the Skylark Chamber of Commerce will naturally not give up on this celebration. Based on this reason, she found several warriors from the Kingdom of Normandy and secretly tried to sneak into the city in the name of merchants.

Combined with the overly relaxed expressions of these Vikings, it seemed that they already knew that someone would come forward to rescue them.

Everything was explained with the arrival of Phoenix.

Confirming that this was not a group of bandits planning to enter Constantinople to plunder, the Sheriff accepted the Plantagenet coin handed to him by Gannicus with peace of mind. To the leader of the Chamber of Commerce, a gold coin is just a drop in the ocean, but to the common people, this small lump of gold means enough food and clothing for a family for two to three months.

After passing through the gate, Sartre and Gulaur immediately recognized the 13-year-old boy in front of them as Loki's son.

No matter the expression in the eyebrows, or the natural elegance in every gesture. He bears a striking resemblance to the young Loki.

"Let me tell you, Odin's son can only be born by a Viking woman. I don't feel comfortable with a son born by an English girl!"

"This one makes me look better!"

Climbing back from the underworld to the human world, Sartre was more free and easy than before. After receiving the customs clearance document allowing him to enter the city, he opened his arms and hugged the young man in front of him warmly.

Phoenix feels a bit like a world away.

When he was born, all the senators who followed Loki to fight for the world had died in the battle with Mutu, the "King of Earth and Sea" outside Paris.

The first story he heard as long as he could remember was that of this group of ordinary heroes who followed Loki to expand their territory.

He knew each of their names as if they were his own relatives.

However, he never expected that just 13 years later, he would be able to see them standing in the sunshine alive again, greeting him cordially like friends.

Compared with Phoenix, Jerome seemed even more shocked at this time. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw an old man with gray hair stepping out of the carriage behind Phoenix.

He leaned on a gilt crutch and stepped out of the carriage tremblingly. Although he is quite old, you can still see that he is quite anxious.

13 years have passed.

The undead wandering into the underworld were successfully resurrected and still looked like young people.

However, Mr. Gor Marash, who has survived in the sunshine of the world to this day, has not escaped the erosion of time after all.

At this time, he was over sixty and already looked a bit old.
