Steel, Guns and the Industrial Party Across the World - ~ Five hundred and ninetieth, the king's invitation

Arda opened an office in Jingyao a long time ago to recruit talents from all walks of life in the capital.

Paul and Mellon lived in the office after arriving at Jingyao. Some other lords lived in their relatives’ homes in Jingyao, and some had already bought their own mansions in Jingyao.

In addition to the lords, Paul, Mellon and others were accompanied by a large group of people, including Secretary Bernard, Minister of Agriculture Hansel, Ladi Setia, Chief of Guard Victor and many guards, Bernard He and Hansel were originally Jingyao people, and this time they came back to visit relatives.

After entering the city, Bernard and Hansel first went back to their home to visit their relatives.

After settling down, Paul and others, led by the office staff, walked around the nearby blocks, and then went back to the office to rest.

“An order from the palace.” When they returned to the office, the person in charge here, Garricks, told Paul and Mellon, “If the two adults have arrived at Jingyao, please come to the palace as a guest the next day.”

“So soon?” Paul was a little surprised, “Shouldn’t all the lords and envoys go to meet the new king together on a certain day after they arrive?”

Garrix said to him happily, “It is clear that our new king values ​​your personal friendship.”

As the person in charge of Arda’s office in Jingyao, Garrix knew the special relationship between the new King Rodney XVIII and the Northwest Gulf.

After receiving the order from the palace, he was very happy, which meant that his lord was very important in His Majesty’s heart.

Paul asked, “Did the other lords receive any news?”

Garrix shook his head: “It seems not.”

————————————–

The next day, Paul and Mellon brought Victor, Ratti and others to the gate of the palace.

Everyone handed over their weapons. In order to avoid trouble, they left all their gunpowder weapons in the office. They went through a search before actually entering the palace.

A court attendant led them into a drawing room.

“His Majesty lives in a nice place!”

Paul admired the interior decoration and said to Myron and others with a smile.

“I’m glad you like my living room, Paul.”

A hearty voice came from outside, and His Majesty Rodney XVIII, the new king of Aldo Kingdom, walked in with a smile.

Paul, who recognized the voice, immediately bowed towards the door like everyone else.

“You’re welcome, you’re welcome, everyone, we just get along as we did in Northwest Bay today. Paul, Mellon, and the beautiful Ms. Setia and Captain Victor.”

Except for Paul, Rodney was the eighteenth who called everyone by name, although he only met people other than Paul a few times in the Northwest Bay.

“As you order, my lord.”

Paul agreed, and slowly raised his head.

oh!

He clearly felt his heart beating slightly.

Paul’s sight was attracted by a figure behind the king’s side.

This is a woman who is beautiful in every way. She has bright golden wavy long hair, which is smoothly scattered on the shoulders and back. A pair of sapphire-like eyes are just right on the white oval face. The eyebrows are slightly thick, revealing a heroic spirit that ordinary women don’t have. Under the straight and beautiful nose are plump, ruddy lips that are a bit dreamy. Such a perfect face is supported by a curvaceous and slender neck. Down… ahem.

Paul withdrew his gaze, it would be considered offensive to keep staring at someone, especially a beautiful woman, and the identity of the other party was likely to be a member of the royal family.

Pay attention to the image! Pay attention to the image! Paul repeated it in his heart.

Of course, the astonishingly full and graceful curves were still firmly etched in his mind.

“Haha, everyone, please sit down!”

Rodney XVIII stretched out his arm and made a gesture of invitation, but there was a playful smile on his mouth. Because he focused on Paul as soon as he entered the door, he caught the obvious stagnation in the other’s eyes.

Everyone was seated again.

Rodney XVIII said to everyone, “Let me introduce you.” He reached out to the woman beside him, “This is the daughter of former King Rodney XVII, my cousin, Princess Catherine Rodney .”

It turned out that she was the well-known Princess Catherine, and everyone from the Northwest Gulf greeted this princess with some restraint.

“Everyone, I am very glad that you can come to Jingyao, especially at this time…”

Catherine responded to them graciously, but there was a trace of sadness in her voice. She has not yet come out of the shadow of her father’s death.

“This is our responsibility and obligation.” Paul replied on behalf of the crowd.

“This is Earl Paul Graham.” Rodney XVIII pointed to Paul and introduced to Catherine.

Catherine’s eyes lit up, and she looked at Paul, “So you are Earl Graham.”

“Yes, Your Highness Catherine. In the Northwest Bay, I often hear about your deeds.” Paul replied with some embarrassment.

“I also often hear about your deeds, especially me…”

Catherine almost spoke out about her sister, but stopped, as if her sister hadn’t revealed her identity to the young earl.

“Thank you for the rations and weapons you provided to the royal army during the civil war, as well as the technology and market you provide now.” She changed direction just in time.

“This is what I should do as a vassal of the kingdom.”

Paul replied politely, thinking that he had also earned a lot from the royal family.

King Rodney XVIII introduced Mellon and others to Catherine one by one.

“It’s unbelievable.” After exchanging pleasantries, Rodney eighteen said with emotion, “Only four or five years ago, the west bay was still a little-known place for us living in Jingyao. UU reading www .uukanshu.com, I hope you don’t mind my words.”

McLone said: “Your Majesty is describing objectively. We ourselves know the situation in the Northwest Gulf in those years.”

The king smiled, “Now, the Northwest Bay is a place of wealth and opportunity. I have to say that this is a miracle. As far as I know, the center of the miracle is you two counts.”

McLone shook his head and said honestly, “Your Majesty, the main thing is Paul. I just made some investments according to the method he instructed.”

Paul immediately said: “Your Majesty, the investment of the Garnard family is an important guarantee for the realization of some of my early ideas.”

The king smiled even more, “It seems that you are all people of high moral character. I am very happy to have vassals like you.”

He set his sights on Paul.

“Earl Graham, I hope to replicate the miracle of the Northwest Gulf to the entire kingdom, what do you think?”
