The Hero Who Troubles the Heroes

Early the next morning, Charles drove the carriage to Andorra la Vella, and Diana and the others sat in the carriage.

After the investigation in Andorra City, Charles will leave here to continue the experience, Diana, Allie, and Hillie will stay, and Arturia is also preparing to take the dragon flight back to Knowledge City.

Brando was also in the car, and he sat with Charles.

He went to Ansel City today on a mission to purchase eggs and raw materials for making preserved eggs. The preserved eggs were very popular at the wedding banquet yesterday, which made him see a bright prospect of selling preserved eggs to get rich.

Along the way, Brando told Charles about the history of the Principality of Andorra.

"A long time ago, this basin was full of bushes, and there were many poisonous snakes and beasts. The monsters in the forest often came to attack the village. Everyone's life was very hard."

"Two people changed this place later."

"Our first dean used his own power to block Lin Hai's monsters to the west, so that they could no longer enter the basin."

"At the same time, the great sage Philip also came here. He, together with Queen Victoria and Catherine, taught the people here advanced farming methods, led people to reclaim the bushes into fields and ponds, and planned the next a canal."

When Brando said this, he pointed to the small canal next to the road connecting Didongkou Town and Andorra la Vella.

He continued: "In the later years, people used this small canal as the main road to reclaim farmland on the edge of each tributary, and finally integrated the basin into a big granary."

"In addition, he led people to discover iron, lead and silver mines in the surrounding mountains, so people built workshops by the lake, and then it developed into Andorra la Vella."

"Before Philip left, his right-hand man was selected by him as the administrator of Andorra City. Later, with the support of the Temple of Harvest, that administrator became the Grand Duke of Andorra and established the duchy."

"In the following years, the Temple of Harvest has always supported the grand dukes of Andorra. The priests instructed the farmers here to continue to reclaim the wild land into farmland according to the plan left by Philip."

"Up to now, Andorra can be said to be the most dazzling pearl on the mainland."

Charles looked around while listening to Brando's remarks. Now there are farmlands everywhere, lotus roots are planted in the ponds, and the fruit in the orchard is covered with branches. There is no meaning to the appearance of bushes and wild animals.

There are boats passing by from time to time on the small canal on the side, carrying grain, fruits and vegetables, livestock, monster raw materials and ores.

With the abundant resources of food, minerals and monsters, the Principality of Andorra has developed handicrafts, prosperous trade, and a lot of taxes that make the Principality very rich. At the same time, the army smashed with gold coins has also caused some malicious people to be careful. Weighing, weighing.

So Charles wondered, why should there be a tax increase in such a rich place?

At this time, Artoria answered Charles' question: "Do you think it doesn't cost money to summon the brave?"

"What did you say?" Charles turned to look at Arturia in a stunned manner.

Then Artoria nodded at him.

As a result, Charles's mind became active, and he said, "So, our family can also summon a few brave men to play."

Arturia said speechlessly, "Just be happy."

Charles wanted to be able to customize the summon. The buddy who saved people with him and was killed by the pressure cooker was not bad. His character was at least as good as his own, and it would be great to be able to pull one.

And the eldest sister he didn't save in the end, you can save people to the end, and you can pull over.

Then he didn't dare to think about it, and the world was destroyed by summoning those great gods.

At this time, there was a rush of hooves from behind, and Charles quickly pulled the carriage aside.

A group of young men and women in bright hunting suits galloped past the carriage, led by a girl of fifteen or sixteen years old, her long blond hair was tied in a braid behind her head, which could be seen from the back At each end of the braid there was a small silver flower with a gem as the core.

There was a bow and arrow on the side of the girl's horse, as well as several rabbits and pheasants.

The boys and girls behind the girl were also dressed as children of wealthy families, and Charles noticed that their prey was one or two fewer than the leading girl.

Behind these young men and women, a group of people dressed as samurai followed.

The group's horses passed a puff of smoke, and Diana waved, and a gust of wind blew the nearby smoke away.

Then she poked Charles on the waist and said, "Isn't it just a group of common people, what way are you letting us eat dust."

Brando said: "They are all children of big businessmen in the city. The one who leads it is Miss Jenny. Her family's Silver Narcissus Chamber of Commerce is one of the best in Andorra."

Businessmen often use various flowers and adjectives to name chambers of commerce. Some of these chambers of commerce are organized by several big merchants, and some are a large number of small merchants attached to the name of a big merchant. These chambers of commerce are similar to companies. , you can make enough noise to ensure the interests of businessmen.

In theory, big businessmen can obtain certain political resources, small businessmen can be sheltered by chambers of commerce, and lords can collect taxes from businessmen, which forms a mutually beneficial relationship.

But where there are people, there are rivers and lakes, and fighting in the shopping mall is no less dangerous than the battlefield and politics.

Charles thought about it and said, "I seem to have heard the name of this chamber of commerce."

He thought about it for a while and said, "I remembered, does that Jenny have a sister named Rui or something, and their mother comes from a strange family."

Brando suddenly became alert. He looked around and saw that no one else was going to overtake or meet, and then said seriously to Charles: "The president of the Silver Narcissus Chamber of Commerce has no young daughter, no matter what you know, you must act as if you will. As long as an eldest daughter."

Charles understood what Brando meant, so he didn't say anything more, and he couldn't say that his father almost brought home his youngest daughter.

He had heard a few words about this chamber of commerce from his parents before, as if the little girl was pitiful or something.

Charles thought about it, and if he has a chance, he should visit them later. How can he get to know his father? It would be best if he could have a meal.

It didn't take long for the carriage to arrive outside the city of Andorra. The canal from the west was divided into two in the west of the city. They bypassed the city from the north and south as moats, and then connected with the lake on the east.

There is also a small river on the moat that flows into the city through the iron fence under the city wall, which is the source of the city's sewers.

After crossing the stone arch bridge on the moat, there is an open space outside the city gate, and there are several ten-meter-high statues standing on both sides of the gate.

In the middle of the statue on the right is a young man leaning on a long sword, and beside him stand four young women holding wands, bows and arrows, swords and shields and daggers.

"This is our first-generation dean and his wives," Brando said.

Charles nodded. The number of this dude's harem is significantly higher than that of the ancestor Philip on the left, but in terms of quality, it is obvious that the ancestor of Philip does not know how many streets he has left.

"It's them?" Artoria's low exclamation caught the attention of Charles and the others.

Charles turned back and asked, "Are you acquainted?"

Arturia nodded, and UU Reading www.uukanshu.com continued to whisper, "I've been to the south before and had a drink with the four sisters."

"At that time, they had just become adventurers. Look at the four-leaf clover logo on their weapons. I helped them design them."

Then Brando turned his head and looked at Arturia in horror, if she was an elf it would be okay to say, but what she thought was a human.

Charles explained: "This old woman is a bit special, don't ask more."

When paying the city tax, Charles looked at the tax officer with a bewildered expression and asked, "I heard that right, pay the tax according to the number of legs?"

The tax officer said in a cold voice, "Stop talking nonsense. The six of you have 16 legs per horse. If you talk nonsense, I will even include your middle leg."

In the past, the city entry tax was one copper plate per person, but now it has become one copper plate per leg. Whether it is a human leg or a horse's leg, the horse has doubled in terms of people.

Charles had to pay his taxes and go into town, and then said to Brando, "I don't think you can expect chickens and ducks in town now."
