Father Mavie

Chapter 637 Gift (two in one, please subscribe!!!)
On March 3st, half a month had passed since the potion bidding, and the weather was slightly warmer. Although it was still cold and humid, it was much warmer than the severe cold of the previous few days.

The scales, blood, teeth, and furs of three thousand supernatural creatures were all collected, cleaned, dried, and then stored in the Church of Eden.

A new saint came to the Church of Eden, named Anne Jane, only 14 years old, younger than Deirdre, and also a follower of the goddess of fate.

No one mentioned Deirdre anymore, as if everything had become a thing of the past, Deirdre's clothes and room were cleaned, all personal items were burned, and the clean and brand new room became the property of the new saint. , because the new saint likes dolls, the monks of the church thoughtfully bought a whole toy store for her dolls, decorated the room to the brim, and painted the walls pink.

The situation at the Witcher headquarters is similar. After Evelyn disappeared, a saint named Anna Jian came. She is 15 years old this year. It is said that she is the sister of Saint Anne. She came from a village in Birmingham and was taught by the local church. Discovered by accident.

Replacing the saint is just a trivial matter, at least in Ma Wei's eyes, the surrounding bishops and priests are very calm towards the new saint, as if they have long been used to it.

As the cargo ship Irina came to London again, it brought a large amount of potion materials and filled several warehouses. Kovalev also came back. The residents in the parade conveyed Mavi's wishes, and the Pope personally showed up. The believers still showed great face, and they dispersed after a while, and the turmoil subsided for the time being.

There are also interludes.

"Father, we still haven't caught the people who made trouble in the tavern that night. The people who provoked the relationship between the snake people and the residents seem to have disappeared out of thin air, gone!"

After Kovalev returned, he reported to Mavi what he had seen in Mosk, and when he heard the news from the troublemakers out of thin air, Mavi was even more convinced that he was right.

Someone is deliberately provoking conflicts between extraordinary races and humans!

In the early days of getting along, human beings were already wary of supernatural races. The vampires are okay, they have the same appearance as humans. Without going into details, it is difficult to distinguish whether they are vampires or humans, but the snake-human race and tree-human race are different. They have Unique appearance, maverick, out of tune with the surrounding environment, can be recognized at a glance.

It takes time to prove whether human beings can coexist harmoniously with extraordinary creatures, but some people don't want to see this scene, and make trouble and maliciously instigate it.
Moscow is a big city, the capital of the Romanov Kingdom, with millions of residents. It is normal for a few foreign spies to mix in. No country can completely eradicate enemy spies, and the Romanov Kingdom is no exception.

"If you don't catch it, don't catch it. Let them run away this time, and they won't be able to run away next time." Ma Wei said: "The actions of the enemy prove that they are afraid, and they are afraid of Chaofan who lives in the Romanov Kingdom. Creatures and human beings live in harmony, that's why we have to stop it, and it can make the enemy fearful, which shows that the church's policy is correct, and we must continue to implement it."

Kovalev nodded and said, "The extraordinary creatures living in Moscow have always been very stable. They have their own circles, and they basically don't have disputes with humans."

The Church of Truth did not set up a 'special zone' such as a living zone for extraordinary creatures, a neutral zone, or a special trade zone in Moscow. Someone had proposed a similar idea, but it was rejected by Mavi.

The establishment of a special zone means granting privileges to some residents, which is unfair in itself, and it is easy to intensify conflicts, and even make humans realize that extraordinary creatures are different from themselves.

Since we want to treat people equally, we should provide a fair environment.

Extraordinary creatures don't need preferential treatment. They are treated just like other human beings. If they break the law, they will still be punished.

"One more thing. Recently, a drug called 'Heat' has suddenly become popular in Mosk. After taking this drug, people will have hallucinations and feel happy in a short time."

Kovalev took out a glass bottle from his arms, and there were small black pills in the bottle: "His Majesty Katerina and Bishop Dino both asked me to bring it for you to take a look at, and the church has asked chemical experts to analyze the medicine inside ingredients."

Ma Wei took the bottle, poured out a black tablet and put it in the palm of his hand. After smelling it, there was no peculiar smell, but it had a delicate fragrance, somewhat like orchids.

"It's supposed to be some kind of new drug, like cocaine, marijuana, etc."

Ma Wei put the black pill back into the bottle and put it away: "I'll find the laboratory in London to test it later, do you know the specific origin?"

"I don't know. This kind of pills suddenly appeared on the market. They are sold by a group of hooligans. They sell them specially in poor areas. The price is cheap. A bottle of 20 pills costs only 3 rubles. It can last for a long time. Bishop Dino has already sent people to investigate, and it is estimated that there will be results soon."

"Is it effective for extraordinary creatures to take it?"

"Slight effect, but not noticeable."

The Romanov Kingdom did not issue an order to prohibit the circulation of drugs. Like other kingdoms such as the Kingdom of Windsor and the First Bonaparte Empire, the laws of the Romanov Kingdom have clear regulations on the dosage of smoking and injecting drugs. For example, cocaine, the injection concentration cannot More than 7%, otherwise it is illegal.

Before the appearance of sleeping toast, many celebrities and nobles in the Kingdom of Windsor often injected and smoked cocaine. Dino also did this business. Even Holmes would occasionally inject 7% cocaine.

Obviously, people in this era do not have a clear understanding of the dangers of drugs. After Mavey ascended the throne, drugs have been listed as taboos. Only drugs such as marijuana and morphine that can be used as drugs have become addictive. The product is strictly controlled, but the effect is not significant. Some businessmen and officials still like to smoke, especially the army, which has been banned repeatedly.

The army is the jurisdiction of the kingdom, and according to the policy of the Church of Truth, it cannot exceed its authority. Ma Wei mentioned the dangers of drugs to Katerina, and Katerina knows it well, but she cannot force lower-level officers to quit drugs. They came from the old times. They have already been infected with bad habits, which are difficult to change, and they are "vassals of the dragon", honored and loyal to Katerina, so it is not suitable to take coercive methods.

What's more, there are still a large number of troops confronting the rebels such as Duke Ivanovic on the front line. Of course, in this case, the morale of the troops must be stabilized first.

For mentally addicted drugs such as drugs, the bard's singing cannot be effective. Drugs are not magic. To relieve drug addiction, only Heimyuk, that is, the sound of Luka's piano, can relieve drug addiction.

Although Mavi is far away in London, he always pays attention to the affairs of the Romanov Kingdom, and will contact Dino as soon as possible if there is any disturbance.

After telling Kovalev to take a good rest for a few days, Mavi left the freighter Irina with William V's family letter, rushed to the head office with the list of goods, and handed the list to Tiffany.

"Chairman, this is last month's account, I simply counted it."

Since Tiffany became the director of the financial department, there has been no problem with the accounts, and Ma Wei is also very relieved. Now, apart from him, the most powerful person in the entire company is Tiffany.

Many employees have never met Ma Wei, but only know that the company has a chairman who can't see the end.

"Nicholas!"

Just as Ma Wei was looking through last month's profits, Stuart pushed the door and walked in, holding two boxes in his hand: "Help me to see, which one is better?"

Each of the two boxes contains a pocket watch, both of which are handmade by famous masters. The case is decorated with exquisite patterns and decorated with gold. It is a bit exaggerated, but the style is still exquisite.

"Why, do you want to give it to me?"

"I'll give you one piece if you want it! How much is it worth?" Stuart was very generous. "Tell me, which of these two pocket watches is more beautiful?"

"Who are you going to give it to?"

"Who is it for? Of course it's the Duke of Chevalier!" Stuhr was stunned for a moment: "Tomorrow is her birthday, don't you know? No, you must know about such an important thing!"

"."

broken!

Forget about it myself!
Ma Wei has been busy running around in recent days, running back and forth in factories, companies, and churches, and sometimes he doesn't even have time to drink saliva. Freya's birthday has long been forgotten by him!
If Stuart hadn't reminded him, he probably would have forgotten to attend the birthday party!
For the birthday party, of course Freya sent him an invitation. Besides him, there are many other celebrities who will be present. A duke's birthday party is still his 30th birthday.
It is definitely not possible to attend the birthday party empty-handed, and you have to prepare a gift. It stands to reason that Ma Wei should have started thinking about the gift a few days ago, and the result...
"You won't forget, will you?" Stuart's eyes became a little subtle: "I heard from the second prince that Duke Chevally has a good relationship with you. If you forget about this, she will probably go crazy? Last time I Forget Abigail's birthday, she's been mad at me for a month!"

"I remember now." Ma Wei thought for a while and said, "There should be time to prepare the presents, well, the birthday party is tomorrow night, so there is time."

"or."

Stuart suggested: "We each have one of these two pocket watches? You give her one, and I give her the other?"

"She's not a watchmaker, why do she need so many pocket watches?"

"Heart! It's all about the heart when giving gifts! Who cares how many watches she has, isn't it enough for me to prepare a gift?"

"Forget it, I'll think about it again."

Ma Wei shook her head. The two pocket watches are too similar in style, with only slight differences. If they were given to Freya, she would definitely be able to recognize them. At that time, she would probably say that she didn't care about giving gifts and fooled her casually.
Be serious in doing things. Since you want to give a gift, you should think carefully about what to give instead of fooling around.

He casually pointed to a pocket watch to send Stuart away, and Ma Wei stared at the ceiling in a daze.

Freya is a duke with a lot of money, what is she missing?
Gold, silver, jewelry, antique jade, she has them all.

There is no shortage of carriages, clothes, flowers and real estate.

Speaking of which, with Freya's financial resources, what things can't be bought?

She doesn't need anything!

Seeing Ma Wei frowned and thinking hard, unable to find an idea for a long time, Junia who was sitting beside eating fruit candy suddenly said, "Dad, you can give her a surprise!"

"surprise?"

"It's just like the puppet bear you gave me, Dad!" Junia said with a smile, "It's a surprise, it's a surprise!"

Looking at the bear in Junia's arms, Mavi fell into deep thought.

Of course he can't really give Freya a puppet bear, she is no longer a child, what does it mean to give a puppet bear?
The intention is enough, but the actual value is too low, which is impolite, at least expensive gifts are popular among nobles.

A gift with high actual value and enough thought.
Suddenly, Mavi's eyes lit up.

"Yes! Come on, Junia, let's go to Canary Wharf!"

Putting down the account book, Ma Wei hurriedly left the company with Junia, took a carriage to Canary Wharf, and saw Fat Orange here, but...
"I'm not looking for you, where are Friday and Xiaomei?"

"They're out there, I'm calling them back."

After sending out a cat, Fat Ju asked why: "Why are you looking for them? Did you cause trouble again on Friday?"

"No, tomorrow is Freya's birthday, and I plan to give her a present."

"The gift is the gift, you look for them. Huh?" Fat Ju frowned: "Are you going to give Friday and Xiaomei to Freya? Are you kidding, they are the backbone of the cat army!"

"Why should I give them away? Didn't Friday and Xiaomei have a litter of kittens? Lend me one."

After staring at Ma Wei for a while, Fat Ju turned around and went into the darkness. After a while, he came back with several blue and white cats.

"They are the children of Friday and Xiaomei, five in total, two males and three females."

Under Fat Ju's order, the five cats sat down on the spot and looked at Ma Wei curiously.

As early as when she went to the Romanov Kingdom, Xiaomei was pregnant. It usually takes two months for a cat to give birth. That is to say, the five cats and cats in front of her are already in their early years.

For cats, one year old is an adult, fully developed and capable of reproductive function.

To be honest, Ma Wei originally planned to choose a smaller cat, but being old has its advantages. For example, under the guidance of Xiaomei, the five cats in front of him have become loyal believers of the Church of Truth, smart, sensible, and obedient.

"Which one do you want?"

Fat Ju walked past the five cats with his tail upright, making them hold their heads high and accept the Pope's 'inspection'.

"They can perform their missions, and it's suitable to be placed next to Freya, but in order to prevent Freya from brainwashing them, it's best to let the goddess bestow a gift."

"That's what it should be." Ma Wei nodded and said, "Freya is the devil with the four pillars above all. It's too dangerous to be around her, and she must have the help of the goddess. Which of them do you think is suitable?"

"To monitor the big devil, you must have excellent qualities such as bravery, agility, cleverness, and alertness. At the same time, you must also have superb acting skills. The beauty and cuteness can capture the appearance of human beings."

Fat Orange turned to look at a pure white cat in the middle:
"Xiaobai, come out!"
