Chapter 307 Preparations before departure (Part 2)
After hearing what Lorena said, Leo glanced at her very much, then raised his little nose, snorted coldly with his nostrils pointing to the sky and the earth, and said: "What do you know? My boss said that as a man, you must repay evil with kindness and repay kindness with kindness."
Germany.
If you have a brain cramp and do those so-called repaying evil with kindness, not only will no one be grateful to you, but they will turn around and call you a fool, and bully you even harder next time. Then they will ask you to give him benefits.
I am going to Nai'an to do a big job. First of all, I have to establish my prestige and tell them that those who have meritorious service may not necessarily be rewarded, but those who have done so will definitely be punished~! Ah, no...it is meritorious...
Something like that..."
He suddenly felt a little uneasy, so he couldn't help but pause, rub his fleshy little chin, and think hard.
Catherine waved her hands impatiently and said: "Okay, okay, I know you are great. Is this okay?"
As he said that, he turned around, gave Lorraine a fierce look, and said, "Look what you have been teaching him all day long."
Lorraine shrugged, spread his hands, and said, "Why, can you say what I taught is wrong?"
Catherine said helplessly: "Yes, okay, there are still many things to do next. Not to mention taking Leo to the Guards to select people, you also have to go to the Prime Minister's Office to complete the documents, and then go to the Finance Department to confirm the appropriation.
It’s unlikely that many people will come your way, so let’s prepare first.”
Lorraine couldn't help but was stunned and said curiously: "Are you kidding? I don't have any acquaintances here at all, and it's impossible to establish relationships with anyone. In the first few days after arriving, the most I could do was run to Luo Linna's house.
Twice. The rest of the people, even the concierge, don’t want to see me.”
Catherine's picturesque eyebrows were raised slightly, her mouth opened slightly, and she said mockingly: "Really?"
When Catherine said these words for the second time, it was already dark.
Although she is called a girl, Her Royal Highness the Princess is actually a young woman, waving the invitation in her hand proudly, and then continued: "You have seen it now, has anyone taken your path?"
That pretty look with her radiant face and flushed cheeks is almost like the beauty goddess Alf coming to the world, which makes people fascinated by her.
Lorraine smiled bitterly and was speechless for a moment.
At the same time, he deeply realized that although Nai'an Province is a very poor and poor province, no matter how poor the provincial governor is, he is still a governor. And no matter how awesome or high-ranking the reserve officer is,
He is also a dead reserve officer~!
He turned his head and looked around.
I saw that the large living room was already filled with all kinds of gifts, and a thick pile of invitations of various colors was piled on the table, but even so, all kinds of invitations were still like snowflakes.
Usually fly in.
The guards were busy going back and forth.
Wearing white gloves, they held gold trays lightly, carrying invitations, and kept delivering them.
Among those invitations, there were invitations to banquets, dances, parties, horse racing, and free platinum VIP cards for high-end clubs. He was dazzled by them.
In anger, Lord Lorraine cursed secretly in his heart. These corrupt elements among the nobles were really audacious. They actually dared to corrupt the senior officials of the empire like this. He must have used a critical eye when he looked back and said harshly.
Go criticize them~!
Let’s see how far those bad guys dare to poison the senior officials of the empire~!
At the same time, Leo, Melina and Vera knew that the invitations and gifts would be sent together.
Therefore, every time they saw the guards coming in with invitations, they cheered in unison, and then rushed over. They grabbed the gifts from the hands of the guards behind them, and then quickly tore open the gorgeous-looking packaging and took out the contents.
.
Once they had something novel, they would gather together and discuss it loudly, then throw the things aside and look at the door expectantly, waiting for the next batch of gifts to arrive.
Lorraine discovered that they all grew up pampered and pampered, and they didn't actually like the gifts too much, they just liked the feeling when opening the gifts.
Just like a child who loves Christmas, the happiest moment is the moment when the presents are opened.
At this time, someone sent several more invitations.
As soon as the guard entered the door, Lorraine could already smell the astounding aroma coming over him.
He raised his eyes and scanned it. Although it was still far away, but with his sensitive sixth sense, he immediately discovered that the invitation was a kind of pink that filled people with some very ambiguous fantasies.
As the guard approached, Lorraine could even see the slender and beautiful fonts on the invitation through the bright magic lights in the room. From this, she could imagine how charming the owner of the invitation would be.
The guard walked in, then bowed slightly and placed the tray in front of Lorraine.
Lorraine peeked at the other people next to her, then hurriedly reached out and picked it up, just about to open it and take a look.
Lord Luo now has several women in charge of him. Under their joint efforts to squeeze him, he deeply understands the universally applicable saying "women are tigers".
Therefore, he was not very interested in the hostesses of those invitations, but he just wanted to see what those people said in order to satisfy his vanity.
But just as he picked it up, he heard a laughter from beside him that was so cold that it could freeze lava in an instant.
Lorraine immediately shuddered and then turned around to look.
I saw several pairs of beautiful eyes that were as bright as the stars in the night sky, all staring at me without blinking.
Under those pairs of beautiful eyes that can emit the freezing light that Ultraman can freeze monsters to death, even a hungry lion will retreat three feet. Lorraine also suddenly seemed to be frozen, motionless.
.
When Catherine saw it, she sneered twice, then raised her slender hand and gently tapped Lorraine twice with her index finger.
Lorraine smiled bitterly, then quickly handed over the invitation in her hand, and explained calmly: "I just want to stand in a critical perspective and want to help you see, I have no other meaning. Really.
There’s nothing else to say~!”
Catherine snorted unhurriedly, then took the invitation, unfolded it, and immediately sneered, saying: "These social butterflies again, they are really good at dancing and well-informed. They are also
If you say you want to invite me and Adele to attend the banquet together, I won’t believe you even if you don’t believe me~!”
As he said that, he reached out and tore it gently without hesitation. Under Lorraine's regretful eyes, he tore the invitation into two pieces and threw it on the floor.
Lorraine moved his eyes downwards and saw that a thick layer had fallen on the floor. Those were all pink invitations of this type. He couldn't help but sigh secretly in his heart: After seeing others build a
It is easy to create a harem full of peace and friendship, and it can also be managed using Harvard Business Administration's systematic and modern management methods.
When we are together, we never get jealous, and we are in harmony, let alone any personal attacks. But why, why is it so difficult when it's my turn?
Let alone taking a concubine, what if you just read an invitation, use a critical eye when walking on the street, and take a second look at those young girls wearing very little?
After Catherine finished tearing it apart, she felt that her hands were a little tired. She couldn't help but raise her eyebrows and ordered the guard next to her: "Kart, go and tell the people outside. If there is another invitation like this, tell them
The other party, Lord Lorraine is busy now, and he will go into the palace with me to meet His Majesty."
Carter immediately agreed, then gave Lorraine a playful and sympathetic look, turned around and walked out.
Looking at his back, Lorraine felt very helpless. She felt as if she had seen the social door of the entire empire slamming shut in front of her. From now on, she just wanted Hongxing to cheat on her or something.
, and there is no chance.
Adele looked at Lorraine's regretful eyes, covered her mouth with her hands charmingly, chuckled twice, and then said: "Be good, Lorraine, our hearts are actually very tolerant. We are not afraid that you will go out and steal."
Eat, we are just afraid that you will be eaten alive by those resentful women."
Lorraine rolled her eyes and said, "Are we still using them? You've almost eaten me alive."
Adele immediately blushed, turned her beautiful eyes, gave him a watery look, and then spat lightly.
Lorraine has now become famous overnight. In the Ministry of Military Affairs, when he first came to report, although he had great achievements, no one paid attention to him. Now, Lorraine walks into the building of the Ministry of Military Affairs and starts from the gatekeeper.
Everyone who arrived at the reception was greeted with a smile and complimented.
Especially in the Prime Minister's Office, those people suddenly became very familiar with Lorraine, and their enthusiasm made Lorraine a little scared.
After running around for several days, Lorraine now realized that the emperor's letter of appointment was the beginning of obtaining the position of governor. There were also cumbersome procedures and documents waiting for Lorraine below. Not to mention anything else, just that one.
Lorraine's subordinates, Naian Province's official list, saw that Lorraine had a big head.
Although Leo had been calling for several days, Lorraine only had time to accompany Leo to select people from the Imperial Guard until today.
Originally, Catherine planned to come by herself. She was really worried about Leo's provocative eyes. However, Leo first promised not to mess around. Later, they swore an oath. Lorraine also went to plead with Leo. Catherine waved her hand,
This task was completely handed over to Leo. After all, Catherine is also very busy now. She not only has to prepare the luggage for the whole family, but also sort out the things that need to be prepared in advance in Ruman City. Now she and Adele
The two of them were too busy to keep their feet on the ground.
Lorraine and Leo sat in the carriage and drove towards the palace.
Leo excitedly said to Lorraine: "Boss, I have inquired about all the heroes. I now know exactly what heroes there are in the Guards."
Lorraine asked in confusion: "What kind of hero?"
Leo took out a small book from his pocket, licked his fingers, opened Xiaobai's book, pointed to the door and said: "Look at this, he is known as the little bully, he robbed girls in brothels, and he once fought twenty-two games in a row without losing.
.I have already inquired, and no one in the Praetorian Guard has won more games than him.
And this one, you see, this man nicknamed the Powerful King, once had a fight with two oxen and ended up pulling the oxen over. He claimed to have once smashed open a city gate with a battering ram on his shoulders.
This one, nicknamed "Zhi Duoxing", has the highest record. He has not spent a penny on restaurants in four months. In the Imperial Guard, everyone is afraid of him.
And this, the King of Thousand Kings..."
Lorraine immediately felt dizzy and said quickly: "Stop, stop, who are you going to pick? Are you sure you are not asking them to go up the mountain with you to become robbers?"
Leo immediately looked at him with admiration, with little stars almost popping out of his eyes, and said: "Boss, you really deserve to be the boss. With just one sentence, you can say a thousand or ten thousand words against others.
If you didn't tell me, I wouldn't have thought of it.
With so many of us, if we really pull them up the mountain, we are definitely better than that kettle with 108 heroes. There are more than 1,000 of us, we are called 1,001 heroes of Nai An Province. By then, we will also be big
A bowl of wine, a big mouthful of meat..."
When Lorraine thought of the group of neatly dressed Imperial Guards who had turned into a large group of bearded bandits under Leo's leadership, Lorraine had a cold war and quickly interrupted Leo.
Said: "Stop, stop. Let's take care of things first."
Leo immediately closed his mouth in disappointment.
Lorraine calmed down and said, "You want all these people to be your bodyguards. Doesn't it seem a bit humiliating?"
Leo blinked his big black and white eyes and said curiously: "Being guards? I didn't say I wanted them all to be guards. Boss, the emperor's uncle gave a quota of one thousand people, of course I have to use them all.
Let me do the math for you. My father's bodyguards can only be counted as six or seven hundred people if they are full. I will calculate it as seven hundred. Aren't there still three hundred people that are not needed?
These people eat and drink from us, how can we let such huge human resources go to waste?"
Leo waved his hands vigorously like a leader in his speech and said: "Of course it's impossible. We must adhere to the principle of efficiency first and make the best use of everyone. I have given them the rest of the people a long time ago.
We have figured out a way out, they will be the backbone of our Flying Eagle Company in Nai'an, and the most important thing is that we will only give them bonuses, not wages."
Lorraine's jaw almost dropped when he heard this. It seemed that no one had looked at this little ruffian for a few days, and he had forgotten what he was doing again.
Lorraine shook his head and said: "The guards assigned to you by your uncle are to protect you and your sister. If he knew that you used these people to do your own private work, he might be so angry."
Leo waved his hand and said: "Okay, boss, I have obtained the consent of the emperor's uncle. This imperial guard completely obeys me."
"Ah? When?"
"Oh, yesterday when Melina and I went fishing with my uncle, he personally agreed." Leo said as if nothing had happened.
Lorraine shook her head and said, "Forget it, as long as you can pass your sister's test."
The carriage drove into the palace, turned several corners inside the palace, and finally arrived in front of a large school ground. Barracks surrounded the entire school ground from three sides.
The carriage unexpectedly arrived at the headquarters in the middle. Leo jumped out of the carriage, waved to the group of people in front and shouted: "Old man Salang, old man Salang, I'm here to play with you again."
Lorraine saw an old man in his sixties, not tall but very strong, turning around.
He was wearing a military uniform, with a ruddy complexion and a big gray beard. Lorraine thought about it, and this man was the commander of the Praetorian Guard, Count Salan.
When Count Sarang saw Leo, he smiled bitterly and said, "You little naughty kid, why did you run out again?"
Leo put his little face on his face and said seriously: "I'm looking for you this time for business, not just for fun. The emperor's uncle wants a large group of guards to protect me, and I'm here to pick someone."
Salang said: "Okay, I understand." Then he turned around and said to the people around him: "Blow the trumpet and assemble."
As soon as I remembered the long trumpet sound, more soldiers ran out of the barracks and gathered on the school field. In less than ten minutes, a neat team had already gathered on the empty school field just now.
Lorraine looked at the actions of these people and secretly praised them in his heart. They were indeed the most elite troops in the Ruman Empire. They were impeccable both in terms of action ability and spirit.
Count Sarang turned to Leo and said, "Your Highness, except for those on duty and those who take turns, the rest are all here."
Leo nodded excitedly, stretched his little neck, and walked in front of the Guards. Looking at the strong men in front of him, he felt that everyone was good, and he didn't know what to do for a moment.
Leo stepped on his calves and ran back to Count Sarang, saying: "Old Sarang, I will pick these people first, and you can help me find the others."
Count Salang said: "Your Highness, please give me your instructions."
Leo opened the small book and said: "The first one is Boduoqi, the captain of the fifth brigade. Last time he went to deliver orders, I met him and I had a good impression."
Earl Salang nodded and shouted loudly: "Bodoqi, the captain of the fifth brigade, get out of the queue and come here."
A figure ran out of the crowd and soon came to Lorraine and Leo.
It was the Baron Portage who had been so arrogant in front of Lorraine Castle.
Bodock walked up to Salang, saluted, and said loudly: "Bodock reports."
Count Sarang just nodded, and Lorraine smiled and said to Baron Portucci: "Your Excellency, Baron, we meet again."
Bodock looked at Lorraine, and immediately showed a smile that was uglier than crying, and said dryly: "Nice to meet you, Lord Lorraine."
Leo looked at him and clapped his hands and said, "Okay, it's just you, Grandpa Sarang, you won't let me go, right?"
Salang looked at the crying Boduoqi and said with a smile: "Does His Highness also want this guy? I haven't said anything yet. I'll give it to you. Hahahaha."
Boduoqi implored Salang with a grimace: "Your Majesty General, I feel very honored to be under your command. Please let me stay. I still have a family."
Count Salang said: "It's strange, aren't you single? Okay, don't pretend to be pitiful, I don't know you yet."
Lorraine was very surprised by Count Salan's words and asked: "Your Excellency General, this Baron Portochi..."
Count Salang said: "Lord Lorraine, are you sure you want this guy?"
Leo nodded quickly.
Earl Salang said: "Don't go back on your word, little naughty boy. I tell you, this guy and several of his friends are called the disgrace of our Guards. They do some embarrassing things for me outside. These are finally
It’s time to clean up.”
Lorraine and Leo were both stunned.
Seeing that he could no longer escape, Boduoqi was worthy of being a scumbag of the Imperial Guard. He immediately rolled his eyes and realized his plan.
