"Fire Emblem?" When he saw the flame, the bartender subconsciously thought of the "red-haired witch" who once led Cyric against the Tang Group.
Because the place where that woman lives is called the Fire Castle, because that woman has fiery red hair.
Although there is no evidence that this card has anything to do with Sophia, the bartender still keenly connected it with Sophia.
"There have always been rumors that Sophia was not dead at that time...she just found a substitute and used a golden cicada to escape." He threw the gold-plated card in his hand on the table, and the bartender looked at his subordinates.
.
One of the men nodded and said: "The people we sent did see Sophia alive, but at that time... her mental state did not seem to be good."
"At that time, we thought she collapsed because of her defeat and her imminent death... But now thinking about it, it was probably a disguise, a disguise that the substitute wanted to escape." The person in charge has always suspected that Sophia is not dead.
Put forward his own views.
At that time, he and his men rushed to the Flame Castle, and together with the people Cyric sent to monitor Sophia, they witnessed the entire process of Sophia's suicide.
However, even though he saw the other person commit suicide with his own eyes and did check his body, he still didn't believe that Sophia died so simply: "Fake things can't be true after all! It's impossible for a substitute to have the same kind of aura that Sophia herself has.
Temperament, if the substitute doesn't show signs of depression, more flaws will be revealed!"
"But these are just assumptions. We have to consider another situation...Sofia is really dead." Another subordinate also expressed his opinion. He felt that before there is definite evidence, it is not worth paying for someone who has already "
"Dead" people invest more resources.
The bartender was noncommittal. He just ordered an investigation into everything behind the card: "Maybe! But why does this flame card appear and what does it represent... We must find out."
"If it's just an example..." a subordinate reminded. Just one card can't explain anything.
"It's not an exception..." The bartender interrupted the other party's guess: "This is the same card we found in Beiyuan City! Someone is secretly accumulating strength!"
As he spoke, he threw another identical card on the table. There was still dried blood on the card, and he didn't know whose blood it was.
"Then the nature of this matter is different." After seeing the second such card, and it was a bloody card, everyone's eyes became different.
If you dare to cause trouble on the doorstep of the Imperial Intelligence Agency, you don't take these silver foxes seriously.
"I heard that such cards also appear in the Eastern Continent! The photos have been sent over there and are on the way." The bartender continued: "So, it can at least be determined that this is a mysterious organization, and its purpose is...
Clearly. But if they want to operate under our noses, they are our enemies!"
"Find out what they want to do!" He looked at one of his most capable subordinates and ordered: "If it is just to make money, then give them a beating and let them report it. If they have anything else,
purpose, things will be much more interesting.”
"Yes!" The subordinate stood at attention and lowered his head.
After Tang Mo saw these cards, he and the bartender thought of going together. He had been very suspicious that Sophia was not dead before, and he had talked about his "red-haired old friend" with someone last time.
Now, after seeing the Fire Emblem card, he felt that the bartender's speculation was reasonable. So the instructions he gave the bartender were very targeted: "Find a few agents and package them as frustrated businessmen or young nobles.
, wait for these people to come to your door, break in, and find out who the other party is working for."
"Yes! Your Majesty!" The bartender immediately understood: This method of burying nails and mixing sand with it is very good. Isn't the other party secretly developing its power? Then let it "grow quickly"!
…
After seeing the wealth of the Tang Dynasty and seeing the prosperity of Chang'an, Sophia had already boarded the train going south - she wanted to go to Tongcheng and see the industrial development there.
In fact, the industry in Tongcheng is already shockingly huge. The chimneys of the factories there are as densely packed as the trees in the forest, and the black smoke from the chimneys blocks the sky like dark clouds.
Although Princess Leer personally pays close attention to environmental protection, industrial development sometimes does require sacrificing part of the environment.
The good news is that the world's natural environment has not been damaged to the point where it cannot be managed without treatment. The bad news is that all countries in the world are developing industry, but only Tang is controlling the so-called pollution.
At least the Tang State was working hard... Although the rivers in Tongcheng were not clean, they were at least within a tolerable range.
If you go to see the rivers in the Ice Empire, you are likely to see a colorful and miraculous river in the ice and snow.
Water pollution is only a part of pollution, air pollution also makes people irritated and uneasy. The air in Copper City is indeed not very good, at least the elves who advocate nature sect do not like such a place.
It is a pity that the Poplar Empire is also industrializing, and the elves are also working hard to cut down trees, and then build the cleared spaces into factories.
Although they don't like it, they still have to admit the importance of industry. Because if they are a little stubborn, the industrial products from the Susus and Lens empires, as well as the northern ice empire, can destroy their fragile economy.
.
Sitting on the train going south, Sophia looked at the farmland along the way and once again fell into deep thought.
What she didn't expect was that the Tang Empire, which had become so powerful and wealthy, would still attach so much importance to agriculture.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! In those farmlands, she can see cattle, tractors, and some machinery that she cannot recognize - each piece of farmland has received a lot of attention.
Well taken care of, and looking at the crops inside, Sofia knew that this would be another good year.
"Damn it... Tang Mo doesn't trust other people at all? He has become so powerful, but he is still so vigilant!" Sofia felt more and more that Tang Mo was invulnerable: "He could have imported a large amount of food, and other countries also
He is selling a huge amount of grain to the Tang State, but he is still cultivating a large area, and even... is still carrying out exaggerated agricultural subsidies!"
Sofia saw the word agricultural subsidies in the newspaper. The Tang Empire was providing agricultural subsidies to all farmers in the country, and the amount was so huge that it could almost rival the finances of a small country.
The Tang State not only delineated a warning line for a huge amount of agricultural land, but also stipulated the population base engaged in agricultural production.
Therefore, Sophia, who originally wanted to do something about food, was once again frustrated. Her plan failed before it even started.
But fortunately, she still has her own "mutual aid club". Those who accept her gold coins will become her help and become a force against Tang Mo!
As long as she works slowly, as long as she continues to lie dormant and wait, one day, she will wait for the opportunity. When that moment comes, she can take action and defeat the man named Tang Mo!
"You wait for me! One day, I will get back everything that belongs to me! And you, like all other men, will crawl at my feet." Sofia's revengeful anger boiled in her heart, and she seemed to want to
It erupted and burned all the fields in sight.
Unfortunately, her eyes could not ignite anything, so in the farmland outside the car window, the crops were still swaying in the wind. The farmers there were working happily, because it was another wonderful year for them.
Their lives are getting better and better: the country is strong, the people are prosperous, every household has electric lights, and there are several tractors in one village. They don’t need to go hungry, and they don’t need to worry about everything being robbed. Life like this is still good.
What's there to complain about?
"What are you thinking about?" The countess walked back to the carriage she had reserved and handed a bottle of milk to Sophia.
"Is this sold on the train? Can the common people afford it?" Sofia was a little surprised when she saw the milk: the people near the Flame Castle had no money to buy milk.
"Although it's not cheap, buying milk and other food on the train is not unusual in the eyes of Tang people." The Countess was reluctant to praise Tang in front of Sophia, so she could only explain cautiously.
Suddenly, Sophia no longer wanted to drink milk. She ended the topic and started talking about Copper City.
As a result, the more we talked, the worse her mood became. Soon she made a decision: "Buy me a ticket from Copper City to the Dahua Empire... I will take a flight to experience it."
She felt that she was incompatible with everything here, so she desperately wanted to escape, or leave here.
"Okay, as you wish, my lord." The Countess was very considerate.
