Chapter Thirty-Six: Continue to Flip the Table
Farnase was born in a big aristocratic family, and this big noble family is the Vatimio family, although it is not mentioned in detail in the original book, but it is obvious that the Vatimio family is a big noble, and it is likely to be a big nobleman across the country, with territories and noble titles in several countries, with a lot of wealth, and a large number of caravans under his hands, politically and the French royal hall, and militarily also has the family's own army, it can be said that in addition to not having the title of king, the Vatimio family is actually equivalent to the prince of a small principality。
If it is according to the world line of the original book, at this time, it is estimated that the Kusha Emperor has launched a harbor offensive, and the harbor where the head of the Vatimio family is located is estimated to have been captured by Kusha's navy and the Warcraft Legion, and the head of the Vatimio family also saved his life thanks to Gus, but on the current timeline, because of Hao Qi's strong participation in the war, Kusha's army in the Midland royal capital was directly slaughtered, and even the Kusha Emperor was just Hao Qi who reluctantly let go for the next decisive battle, in this case, Kusha is no longer an unstoppable and powerful force like the original book, and it is unknown whether they dare to launch a naval offensive。
The solution that Hao Qi thought of was actually very simple, that is, commercial circulation was sufficient, don't think that the famine in ancient times was really without food, it was just a flood, drought, famine, or war, earthquake or something somewhere, it seems that there are a lot of displaced people, and even the bark of grass roots and trees has been eaten, but in fact, compared to the size of the entire country or the entire continent, there may not even be one-tenth of the whole disaster.
Taking Hao Qi's previous life as an example, if it is an ancient feudal dynasty in the East, unless it is the heyday of this dynasty, when a province has a disaster of extinction of the entire province, this is almost a thing that shakes the country's foundation, and a bad whole country will collapse, even if the country does not collapse, and the disaster will survive, the life of the country will also be greatly affected, and it is likely that the signs of the country's ruin have been buried, if a similar situation occurs in two or three provinces, then the dynasty will be full of destruction under the combination of peasant uprisings, military general rebellions, and foreign invasions, with almost no exceptions at all。
However, if we change the situation to modern and modern times, a once-in-a-century flood has affected almost seven or eight provinces, or a major drought has almost completely wiped out production in several provinces, and it is only because the state has mobilized more frequently, and the impact on the people in non-disaster areas is almost equal to zero, not to mention anything that shakes the country's foundation.
Although there are modern modern science developed, the level of productivity has been greatly improved in one of them, but the circulation of materials is the most fundamental reason, in this world, the scale of commercial circulation is pitifully small, almost all the merchant groups are nobles or small nobles, at least the knights or gentlemen can form a merchant group, the fundamental reason lies in the foundation of feudal society, the problem of territory.
In feudal society, especially in the feudal society of the dark medieval era in Europe, every piece of land there has its lord, and the king is only the largest and strongest lord, and may not even be the largest and strongest lord, and in such a social civilization, the ministers are not the king's ministers, and the lords of each piece of land can decide most of the laws of the land for themselves, and the merchant group needs to pay the tax rate issued by the lord of the land if it passes through any piece of land, and if a country is exaggerated, there may be hundreds of lords, and you need to pay hundreds of taxes on the goods transported by a merchant group, even if you buy high-end luxury goods at the price of cabbageWhen you pay a 100% tax rate, even if the price you sell is the price of high-end luxury goods, I am afraid that it will be difficult for your income to even return to its original income.
Because of this, the merchants in this world must at least be small nobles, of course, the kind of rural merchants or something, the middle class can do it, but as a merchant group that can walk on multiple lords' territory, at least it must be a small noble, otherwise just the difficulties of those lords and nobles can make you close.
As a great nobleman, the Vatimio family has noble titles and territories in many countries, and is famous for their wealth, as long as they want, they can definitely mobilize food and various necessities to support millions of people, of course, just mobilization, transportation and other aspects are still big problems.
First of all, of course, the toll fees of the lords in various places, for the Vatimio family, these are small problems, the political aspect is the big problem, the French royal hall is on the one hand, the great nobles of various countries are on the one hand, the international situation is on the one hand, the general and general aspects, the Vatimio family is not like the emperor can take everything for granted.
And it must be willing by the Vatimio family, so as long as there are brains, they will not think that the Vatimio family will do everything to provide Hao Qi with such food.
But...... That's just common-sense thinking.
Hao Qi even dared to lift the table with the hand of God, since food is now related to the outcome of the war, why can't he lift the table?
So that night, in the big villa of the Vatimio family in the harbor, the head of the Vatimio family saw Hao Qi, in fact, there was a man and a woman sitting at this long table, Hao Qi knew that these two were the father and mother of Farnase, and the two were eating dinner in silence at the moment, and then suddenly there was a black-haired young man on the empty table, and the two were stunned for a while, and did not make any other movements at all.
The two of them did not react, it does not mean that the people around them did not react, although this is the dining room, but as a big nobleman, there are no less than five guards with him, at least one of them is a powerful warrior knight and the like, and the fastest reaction at this moment is a tall knight, in Hao Qi's appearance for a second at most, he has already pulled out his long sword and slashed it directly.
And Hao Qi didn't look back, just raised a finger back, and with a crisp sound of gold and iron, the long sword stopped on his fingers, and the huge long sword didn't even cut the skin of his fingers, but the hands of the knight holding the sword burst directly, thanks to his strong will, and he had enough physique and combat experience, so it was not even the sword that fell directly.
At the same time, Hao Qi said: "Hello two, I think these two are Farnase's parents, right? ”
The eyes of the male and female duo did not look at Hao Qi, but at the finger he put up, and the long sword that slashed at this finger with all his strength, even if their vision was only ordinary people, but they still clearly saw that there were some cracks where the long sword intersected with the fingers, and there was a gap in the blade of the long sword...... This is a steel longsword, such a steel longsword is basically the top weapon in this era, unless it is a legendary weapon, otherwise there is nothing that can knock such a long sword out of the gap with one blow...... Not to mention human fingers.
This kind of thing, they are unheard of at all, it's not that there is no liar Xuancheng himself got divine grace and the like, he can break a big stone in his chest or something, but such people must all be liars, as the highest level of aristocrats, they even believe in the teachings of the Holy Religion only superficially, how can they believe in the strange extraordinary abilities of some rural farmers?
If they hadn't seen it in front of them, they wouldn't have believed that a human could have blocked the slash of one of their great knights with his fingers, and that he had made a gap with his sword...... Not people!
As for their daughter Farnase's companions......
"Are you a stranger named Hao Qi?" asked the head of the Vatimio family, who had stabilized his emotions and still maintained his aristocratic demeanor.
"Yes, I'm Hao Qi. Hao Qi replied with a smile.
Suddenly, the head of the Vatimio family and the hostess were all solemn, and the head of the Vatimio family directly waved away the knight who was looking at the long sword in a daze, and only said to Hao Qi after a long time: "Mr. Hao Qi, you are a human ...... Or ......"
"I am a man, not an apostle. Hao Qi smiled and said, "It seems that the two of you must have also investigated your daughter's whereabouts and the people around her recently, right?
The head of the Vatimio family hesitated for a moment, but still nodded: "Not only Serpico's words, but also some of our own investigations, and ...... Recently, the information sent by Kusha's side has some rumors about the royal capital...... I beg your pardon, I would like to ask, did you really defeat the army that Kusha had occupied in the capital of Midland?
"It's not a rout. Hao Qi shook his head for a moment, and then said: "It is to wipe out all the Kusha troops in the Midland royal capital, except for the Kusha Emperor I put back, and one of his magician attendants, I killed all the other Kusha soldiers, well, there are about 100,000 people." ”
With a snap, the soup spoon in the hand of the noblewoman, that is, Farnase's mother, fell directly to the ground, but she didn't pick it up, just stared at Hao Qi, and the head of the Vatimio family was like this, after a long time, he smiled bitterly: "This is the same information as I know, but it's still the same...... It's inconceivable, are you really just a human being, not a god walking on the earth?"
Jinni?
Hao Qi thought of the gods of the Seven Seas World, in fact, compared to the Divine Phase, even if it is the Shuntian Divine Realm, the strength of the Hand of God is simply scum, in addition to the fact that they can observe the law of cause and effect, when the Suntian Divine Realm explodes at full strength, they can directly hang the hands of the gods in the netherworld, and rub them on the ground as much as they want, if they compare carefully, the Shuntian Divine Realm can be called gods, with the kingdom of God, which can accommodate the souls of believers who believe in them, and all of these are more qualified to be called gods than the Hand of God。
So Hao Qi thought about it seriously, and said calmly: "I am a human being, this is certain, and it is definitely not a god, but I have killed a few gods in my hometown." ”
Suddenly, the scene suddenly became unusually silent, and Farnase's parents looked at Hao Qi quietly like this, at least for a minute or two, the two of them didn't even have the desire to speak, and the scene became extremely embarrassing for a while.
(He wasn't joking...... The gods are above, and what he says is true??)
The two looked at each other, both of them are veterans in the political arena, the high emotional intelligence is simply master-level, and the accuracy of looking at people is also very sure, but because of this, they don't know what to say, it's like a person suddenly comes in front of you, he said that he blew Sirius yesterday, and before that, he also hammered several other stars together, the most important thing is that you can see that he doesn't seem to be bragging, I guess you also have a sentence in your heart MMP wants to squirt out?
This is the current mood of the two, and after a long time, the head of the Vatemio family said with a stiff face: "Sir is really joking...... Let's not talk about that, but what are you going to do this time?"
"Keep flipping the table. ”
Hao Qi said with a smile.
