Moreover, it's not hard to guess that this alliance has been going on for many years, so a well-organized exchange meeting wouldn't actually take long.
"What were the personal qualities of those princesses and princes like?" Mike continued to inquire about the details.
"They are all very obedient children." Queen Reinadi, with a faint smile on her lips, patiently answered the questions.
Young...very sensible...didn't stay long...
Mike quickly extracted the key words from the Queen's answer.
"How about building an indoor playground for the princesses and princes to play in?" Mike suggested after some thought.
The quickest way to build good relationships with people is to cater to their interests. Give them what they lack most.
It is conceivable that the surrounding small countries would subject their heirs to the most rigorous education in order to cultivate them into qualified rulers.
In this situation, those young princesses and princes may not have truly enjoyed the pleasures of childhood.
Q: What do children like most?
A: It's definitely for fun.
That's every child's nature.
Starting from this point of view, a fun amusement park can definitely give those princesses and princes a huge surprise.
Upon hearing Mike's suggestion, Queen Renadi showed a knowing expression, then turned to her thoughtful granddaughter and asked, "Mia, what do you think of Mike's suggestion?"
“That’s a great idea,” Mia replied.
Clearly, Mike's suggestion also opened up new avenues of thought for the girl.
“I also think it’s a good suggestion,” Queen Renadi said decisively. “Then the task of building the amusement park will be entrusted to you. If you have any questions, you can discuss them with Mike.”
As mentioned earlier, the reception work for the heirs is not very important, so it's perfect for the girl to practice.
"I understand." With a solution to the problem, Mia seemed much more relaxed.
Afterwards, the girl consulted Queen Renadi about some things to keep in mind when receiving foreign guests before accompanying Mike out of the Queen's office.
Next, the two had many more interesting places to visit.
As time went by, Mia took Mike to the music training room, dance training room, archery training room, and other places one by one.
These places are all venues needed for princess training. However, Mike doesn't seem very interested in these venues.
"Come on, let's go check out the weapons exhibition hall. You'll probably like that place..." Mia invited in a flattering way.
After spending half a day with Mike, the girl had unknowingly forgiven him. It was noticeable that her attitude was gradually becoming more proactive.
The royal gallery displays various retro-style weapons and armor, some of which still bear traces of battle damage, suggesting they were used by Genovya's ancestors.
It has very high historical research value.
Rather than calling this an exhibition hall, it's more like a war museum.
“I heard Mr. Qiao mention that this armor and its matching weapons were once used by my great-great-great-grandfather,” Mia said, pointing to the imposing set of equipment in the center of the room. “Of course, because it was severely damaged, this armor has undergone several repairs.”
"If you'd like, you can try the sword on your armor..."
The gilded armor in front of me is not only stylish, but the steel plate on the chest is also very solid, which makes me feel very safe.
Next to the armor, on a shelf, was a magnificent two-handed greatsword.
With the girl's permission, Mike reached out and grabbed the greatsword, which required two hands to wield. He swung it a couple of times and felt it was pretty good, but it was too light for him.
"Let's go up to the tower and see the view," Mike suggested with a smile as he put the greatsword back in its place.
For him, whose physical attributes were already five times that of an ordinary person, the armor and weapons here were no different from "scrap metal," so they were not very attractive.
As for why he suggested going to the tower to see the view, Mike was actually considering the girl's feelings.
Although Mia hid it well, Mike could still sense that she wasn't very interested in the showroom.
The girl's visit to the museum was most likely an attempt to curry favor with Mike.
After all, people imagine that boys would like armor and weapons.
Having guessed the girl's thoughts, Mike, while enjoying her care, didn't mind reciprocating by looking after her feelings in return.
The tower at the front of the castle actually served as a watchtower during wartime.
Therefore, the view here is very open.
The royal castle in Genovia was built with security in mind, so it is backed by mountains and faces a large open plain.
On the one hand, it prevents the enemy from launching a sneak attack from behind, and on the other hand, it makes it easier to detect the enemy as soon as possible.
It was October, the golden autumn month, and the red maple forest on the mountain behind the castle looked like burning flames under the setting sun, creating a spectacular scene.
Meanwhile, in the farmland transformed from the plains ahead, the farmers, having just finished a day's work, created a tranquil pastoral scene.
This is the scene that Mike and his companion saw when they stood on the tower.
After admiring the beautiful scenery before her, the girl habitually turned to look at the boy beside her.
The afterglow of the setting sun shone on the boy's handsome profile, giving him a hazy, dreamlike quality.
Chapter 306 Consolidating Position
How long would it take for a royal princess to build an indoor amusement park?
It turned out that it only took one day.
With Mike's help, Mia completed the planning for the indoor playground and selected a location in just one day.
The remaining construction process was handed over to the Queen's secretary and maids to oversee.
While building the amusement park and waiting for visiting delegations from other countries, Mia took Mike to experience the local customs and culture of Genovia.
The open plain outside the castle became their dating spot.
Horse riding, archery, and picnics became popular activities for the couple during their dates.
The girl even invited Mike to go with her to visit farmers and fruit growers in Genovia, and other working people.
During this time, Mike also gained a general understanding of Genovia's national conditions. Apart from its abundant mineral resources, the country was basically based on a small-scale agricultural economy.
The people's lives were passable, but the entire country was not very wealthy.
Under such circumstances, vigorously exploiting mineral resources would obviously make Guo Jia wealthy in a very short time.
From the perspective of rapid economic development, the radical faction led by Prince Marbury seems to be on the right side.
"Mike, do you think that vigorously mining mineral resources will allow the people of Genovya to live a better life?" Mia, who was setting up a picnic area by a stream, suddenly asked.
Thinking about how she would become the ruler of this small state in the future, the girl inevitably pondered some related questions.
Based on the information she currently has, developing mineral resources seems to be a good way out.
"The strength of a nation isn't just about economic power; it also depends on comprehensive national strength, including military and technological capabilities. Otherwise, no matter how well the economy develops, it might just be working for someone else's benefit." Seeing the girl's dazed expression, Mike gave her a few words of advice.
In fact, for a small country like Genovia, which occupies a good geographical location, it is not difficult to develop its economy.
But the key issue is how to protect that wealth. Otherwise, a small-scale war of aggression could wipe out Guo Jia's entire fortunes overnight.
Queen Reinati did an excellent job in enhancing her country's overall national strength. Over the years, she has sent many young people to developed countries to learn more advanced science, technology, and experience.
If they continue step by step, Genovya will become powerful sooner or later.
On the contrary, Prince Marbury's radical faction, seemingly acting in the best interests of the country, is actually bringing disaster upon Genovya.
"Is there really no way to improve the lives of the people of Genovya in a short period of time?" Mia's expression fell as she heard Mike's analysis.
It must be said that Mia is a very kind person.
"Don't think too much about it. I actually think it's a very happy thing to be able to live here," Mike exclaimed.
Because Migo is watching over them, the probability of a small country like Genovya being invaded by others is actually very small.
Furthermore, due to the suitable climate, the people here don't actually go hungry even if they don't mine.
Moreover, Queen Reinadi's insistence on self-sufficiency gave this beautiful little country a sense of being a paradise.
For people who want a peaceful life, living here is a kind of luck.
"Never mind, I was too impatient." Mia, who had just become Princess Genovya, was clearly not yet fully accustomed to her new identity.
However, the girl's cheerful personality meant that her emotions came and went quickly.
Moreover, happiness is relative.
With Mike by her side, the girl already felt very content.
Soon the picnic blanket was laid out, and on it were placed the cooked food and fruit that the girl had brought.
The two enjoyed their delicious food while feeling the cool autumn breeze, savoring a rare moment of leisure.
This leisurely and beautiful scene was captured by a reporter hiding behind bushes not far away.
It's worth mentioning that Mia's dating with Mike has already spread to the Genovia public through Elsie's report.
The handsome man and beautiful woman, coupled with Elsie's romanticized narrative, have gradually led the public to accept Mike as the future "Prince".
Yes, regardless of one's previous status, as long as one becomes the husband of Queen Genovya, one can enjoy the treatment of a "prince".
"Elsie, want to come over and grab something to eat?" Mike, his eyes glazed over by the magnesium powder camera, invited the beautiful reporter hiding nearby.
Elsie, a beautiful young female reporter, was the one Queen Renadi sent to secretly follow and report on Mike and Elsie's date.
Mike was able to gain Genovia's approval so quickly partly because of his handsome looks, and partly because of the female reporter's compelling gossip.
The female reporter was a bit oblivious and didn't understand what "secretly taking photos" meant.
All they know is how to play the ostrich.
For example, right now, Elsie, with half her body exposed, has already been discovered, but she still picks up a small twig to block her view, like she's burying her head in the sand.
"Elsie, come out, I see you too." Mia laughed at the female reporter's clumsy appearance.
The girl seemed to enjoy playing hide-and-seek with the reporter.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to ruin your date." The female reporter, with nowhere left to hide, carried her old-fashioned camera and sat down by the picnic blanket.
Their gaze lingered on Mike's handsome face for a couple more seconds.
"Eat an apple~"
"Thank you, Princess Mia!"
As the two girls talked, a romantic afternoon date for two turned into a dinner for three.
This has happened several times in the past few days.
However, Mia should indeed thank this clumsy female reporter.
With the female reporter's gossipy reporting, Mia, the new princess of the kingdom, became a more three-dimensional and down-to-earth figure.
This has led to a gradual increase in the acceptance of Princess Mia among the general public in Genovya.
This situation, by a stroke of luck, gave Mia a very good foundation of support among the masses.
It can be said that during this period, Mia, with her lively and adorable image, has firmly secured her position as the heir to the kingdom.
"Princess Mia, I'd like to interview you. Are you ready for tomorrow's reception?" Elsie asked without any hesitation, munching on a large apple.
As one of Genovya's few journalists, Elsie clearly knew a lot about the royal family's inner workings.
"It's basically ready. I've designed an indoor playground specifically for the upcoming arrival of princesses and princes from other countries. It has slides, swings, bumper cars, and a small pool, which will be a big surprise..." After spending some time with the young female reporter, Mia had come to regard her as a friend, so she didn't hide anything from her.
"Are you going to play games with princesses and princes from other countries? That's a great idea indeed," Elsie praised sincerely, looking just as goofy as ever.
It must be said that small places have their advantages; at least most of the people here are very simple and honest.
Next, the two girls, neither of them particularly scheming, huddled together and started whispering. Mike, the star of the date, was left out in the cold.
Time flew by, and it was noon the next day.
Queen Renadi, now dressed in magnificent attire, stood at the main entrance of the banquet hall, hand in hand with her granddaughter, Princess Mia, awaiting the arrival of the visiting delegation.
On the other side, Mike, who had also changed into a handsome white suit with gold accents, was by Mia's side.
Not far behind the three, a group of royal family members and ministers of the kingdom had gathered.
Of course, those chosen to greet the foreign guests were all members of Queen Reinard's side. As for the radicals, not a single one was present.
Around noon, a convoy of black cars arrived outside the Kingdom Castle.
