Doctor Amnesiac, but not completely amnesiac

Qiao Yelan looked at the Shaoqing of the Honglu Temple who had become a non-confrontational official, and the confusion in his heart could not be described in words.

what's the situation,

Clearly, when he was in Kyoto before, this Shaoqing was a smart, witty, and clever person - how come he has now evolved into a barbecued pork?

Confused and puzzled, the delegation left the Grand Duchy of Normandy and arrived at the Duchy of Godottin.

The same warm welcome and the same gorgeous dinner as always, but there was no "secret meeting".

However, Qiao Yelan was not in a hurry. There was a reason why he did not have much dealings with Grand Duke Godoting - the other party's value was not even comparable to that of Grand Duke Scarford.

At least Scarford is close to Londinium and has an army that at least looks intimidating - what do you have, Godottin?

The Dukedom of Godottin is located on the Krasd Inland Sea, so he pays more attention to the control of maritime power than the development of land. Therefore, he has a huge naval fleet but only a pitifully small land army.

As for why Qiao Yelan didn't bother to pay attention to him...

Because Marshal Alfonso of Iberia, relying solely on the Iberian fleet in the Crasde Sea area, defeated Godotin's fleet and almost captured him.

In other words, this guy does not have any dominance in this area, either on land or at sea.

Then why should I control you?

Are you ready to serve?

Therefore, he was not at all surprised by the treatment he received this time - this was exactly why he wanted to give the members of the delegation a heads-up and tell them that they would stay longer.

It’s not that Grand Duke Godoting is too difficult to deal with, but because he is too inexperienced that there is no channel for communication.

So for the first time, the Great Yan delegation followed their leader and sat down at a serious negotiation table.

As for the negotiation process, there is nothing much to say. Godoting was very resistant to the Longmen currency because his main trade direction was with Sargon's kings and chiefs, not with other countries.

Most of the trade there is based on barter, and Grand Duke Godoting can make an extra fortune through this method - therefore he does not want there to be a universal settlement unit in international trade, otherwise how can he fool those kings and chiefs?

"It's a pity, but since His Excellency the Grand Duke has no such plan, then we, as guests, will naturally not say anything more - please do not hold a grudge against His Excellency the Grand Duke. Dayan is still willing to maintain a friendly relationship with His Excellency the Grand Duke."

"Of course, Your Excellency the Grand Duke is also very happy to maintain a friendly relationship with Dayan."

Both sides maintained a polite fake smile, shook hands and chatted in a friendly manner, and were in a happy mood.

"Sir, even you can't handle it sometimes? Do you want to communicate with the country and try to win over Grand Duke Godoting?"

Shaoqing leaned close to Qiao Yelan's ear and asked in a low voice.

"Forget it. There will always be failures. Who can have smooth sailing all the time? Don't worry about whether His Majesty the Emperor will blame you. I will take responsibility."

Qiao Yelan patted Shaoqing's shoulder comfortingly.

failure?

Which eye of yours saw me fail?

It’s a good thing that Godotin refused - otherwise how would he have so many reasons to send things to the Duchy of Normandy?

Since Godottin refused, we couldn't go south via Victoria's domestic trade route, so wouldn't we have to take a detour?

Does the detour necessarily have to go through the Duchy of Normandy?

There will definitely be some losses if you take a detour, right?

Don't worry about whether I'm transporting steel or not, just tell me whether there is any damage.

As for how much is transported, how much is lost, whether it is a loss or a profit——

Sorry, we at Babel Tower are a designated patriotic enterprise of Da Yan. We are responsible for our own profits and losses and do not want the government to pay a penny. Moreover, this is a commercial secret and will not be disclosed...

Don't let everyone not be able to use the Originium Inhibitor produced by Babel.jpg

So even though it is just a dish, it is Qiao Yelan’s job to squeeze out the value of the dish.

As for whether Archduke Godotin's refusal would be bad news...

Don't worry, just play with him.

When the Sargon chieftains discovered the benefits of Longmen Coin, and realized how much Godoting had fleeced them in the past through the pricing power of Longmen Coin—

It’s time for Grand Duke Godoting to kneel down and ask to join the Longmen Coin system.

PS1:

First, regarding the question of Fontainebleau and Lingone - the original text says, [A skeleton was pulled out from the largest mobile city in the past]. This largest mobile city refers to the capital of Gaul, Lingone.

The mobile city was originally divided into plots, and there was no doubt that Lingons was the same. So as the winner, Wellington would definitely take the most core piece of the skeleton, and it was impossible to just pick a broken plot and take it.

In addition, I habitually call the core area of ​​Gaul Fontainebleau - you can see that the Grand Duke of Normandy said that he was drawing the [keel], which is the main bearing of this core area.

[The dragon bone of Fontainebleau was pulled out] and [a bone of Lingone was pulled out]. When it comes to the Duke of Normandy that I set up, I will definitely use the former description, which will make the plot tension appear greater.

Nothing to get hung up on, just a simple technical adjustment.

Regarding updates, basically one update a day, but the author has his own life and occasionally wants to take a break. And taking two days off a month can also meet the full attendance requirements, so don't ask if the author has stopped updating if he updates one day less, thank you.

Chapter 108 Landmine System

The Grand Duchy of Normandy gives people the feeling of a luxurious and gorgeous flower, but it feels as hard and cold as steel.

The feeling given by the Dukedom of Godottin is that of a sunset with a hint of sea breeze, a dusk that seems glorious but will eventually become lonely.

The Dukedom of Caster gives people the feeling of being an ordinary "normal country".

Yes, a country.

The Duke of Castor has the most territories, the most mobile cities - and the largest army of all the Dukes of Victoria.

This is undoubtedly a country, with a completely self-sufficient industrial system and agricultural production, a huge population and territory - except for its name, the Dukedom of Custer, it is no different from a new country.

There is naturally a reason why Grand Duke Kaster has such strength.

"Long time no see, Doctor."

"It has indeed been a long time since we last met, Grand Duke Caister."

The lady took off her gloves and held them in front of Qiao Yelan, and the doctor gracefully performed a hand-kissing ceremony and kissed the other's fingertips.

"Welcome the Great Yan delegation to my territory, and welcome to my dinner party. I hope you have fun. Mr. Qiao Yelan and I need to discuss something in private first."

Good, that’s right—this is the Mr. Qiao I know.

It turns out that Godoting is not very sensible.

The envoys smiled politely without any awkwardness, and dispersed skillfully to mingle with the guests around them.

Without asking for the help of a servant, Duke Caster walked behind Qiao Yelan, pushed his wheelchair, and left the noisy dinner hall.

The noisy sound gradually faded away, leaving only the monotonous noise of the wheels.

Just when Qiao Yelan wanted to speak——

"Are you so distant from me now that even a kiss on the hand is so exaggerated - you kissed more than just these hands back then."

what?

Qiao Yelan was stunned for a moment.

I didn't find any combat records for what you're talking about.

"You are joking, Your Excellency."

The wheelchair suddenly stopped.

The woman walked to Qiao Yelan's side, half squatted down, reached out and touched Qiao Yelan's face, looking at him inch by inch.

"I'm not kidding."

She said faintly.

Qiao Yelan didn’t know how to continue. With a stern face, he cursed himself in his heart for not leaving any record of this incident last time.

Then she suddenly burst out laughing.

"So you really did lose your memory huh? Your reaction is so funny?"

"Are you cheating me?"

"Well - you can continue to guess what we did between us."

She actually winked playfully.

Despite his age, Grand Duke Kaster's expression is still enough to captivate people.

She stood up, walked behind Qiao Yelan again, and pushed him forward.

"Is this the price you mentioned? This is really a terrifying technique."

"The price of something."

Qiao Yelan asked without any emotion.

The situation had completely gotten out of control, the upstream and downstream relationships due to the lack of intelligence had been reversed, and he now knew nothing about the woman behind him - he couldn't even see her expression or demeanor.

It seems that using a wheelchair for disguise has its disadvantages.

"Eternal youth, or in other words, eternal life."

The Archduke of Caister's voice remained unchanged.

"I was very envious back then - although you and others always say that women are more beautiful as they mature, women themselves know that it's just a compliment from men to deceive ghosts."

"But you succeeded in scaring me, so I gave up asking you for it - now it seems that it's a good thing I didn't insist, otherwise..."

Her words stopped abruptly.

"Here we are."

In front of me is an inconspicuous door.

This is probably the secret room for the conversation.

Before Qiao Yelan was pushed in, he was still thinking this subconsciously.

Until he saw that there was no table for conversation in this secret room, only dense cashmere carpet thick enough to cover the ankles, a dressing table, a small chair, a coat rack, and a huge bed.

?

Wait a moment.

Something is wrong with you.

Just as Qiao Yelan was about to speak, he heard the sound of the door behind him being locked.

He didn't even bother to continue pretending and just stood up from the wheelchair to see what was going on.

However, he suddenly stumbled and tried to hold on to the wheelchair, but he forgot that his wheelchair had just been pushed in and the handbrake had not been pulled.

As the wheelchair slid out smoothly, Qiao Yelan fell on the soft carpet.

"Well, after all, the wheelchair is also a disguise."

There was no trace of doubt in the woman's voice, and it was obvious that she had already been certain of this.

Qiao Yelan shook his head, focused his attention, and looked up at the Grand Duchess.

She noticed Qiao Yelan's gaze, smiled happily, took off the gloves in her hand again, and shook them at him.

......It seemed like she was wearing gloves when she touched her face before?

"Over the years, I have prepared many methods, but I didn't expect that you would fail at the first level. That's why I said that it's a good thing I didn't insist on asking you for this kind of eternal life."

She picked up Qiao Yelan by the waist, put him on the bed, then took off her clothes and pressed on him.

His Highness the Grand Duke leaned close to the man's ear and breathed a breath of warm air gently.

"Now, you can continue to guess what we have done before-"

"--teacher."
