After Tang Jie saw this fleeting gaze, he suddenly moved his heart, as if he had thought of something, but soon Tareras, who had just revealed a cunning gaze, turned around and started talking to the people around him.?

Tang Jie stared at his back with a flash of eyes, thinking.

The morning of the second day after the dinner, after staying in Kunisk for two short days, Princess Angel and Tang Jie and his group finally set off for the imperial capital Garcia, accompanied by Duke Tareras, Agatha and others.

What was different from what Tang Jie and the others expected was that they did not ride a carriage to the imperial capital, but continued to take a boat, then headed to the imperial capital Garcia along the artificial canal of Pang Dehai. Then they would stop at a place more than twenty miles away from the imperial capital, and finally enter the imperial capital.

Tang Jie was not very understanding of this at first, but Christina told him: "This is the arrangement of His Majesty the Emperor of the Pound Empire, and we do not agree with it, but we can only obey the arrangement."

Tang Jie didn't say much. He was just secretly guarding against the dangers that might arise. Although he didn't believe that the emperor dared to send people to attack the princess of the Falco Empire at the gate of the imperial capital, he believed that he was always safe. Tang Jie and Christina took the Falco Guards to wait for the game.

Tang Jie stood at the bow of the boat, put on a straight military uniform, and his high cowhide boots stomped the deck with a loud bang. The long sword at his waist swayed slightly with his movements. What surprised Agatha the most was that there were two shining silver stars on Tang Jie's military uniform epaulette.

"Congratulations, I became a Lieutenant General, my General!" Agatha held a delicate flower fan specially used by a noble lady in her hand, covered her mouth with a fan, and laughed in a low voice.

The handle of this flower fan is a dragon fragrance wood that is several times more expensive than gold. This wood is light and solid, soft and cool when held in the hand, and has a very touch. The most rare thing is that it will emit a faint fragrance and has a certain aphrodisiac effect. It is precisely because of this that it has become the favorite of nobles and socialites. Whoever can have such a fan will immediately stand out from everyone.

The fan of this flower fan is a few pink feathers. This feather is taken from a ferocious monster called the Hundred-winged Falcon in the sky. The Hundred-winged Falcon is extremely ferocious. Its claws can snatch the hardest rocks. Its hard beak is even more terrifying than the sharpest weapon. The feathers on its wings are extremely hard, comparable to steel, but the feathers under its wings are the most beautiful and softest feathers in the world.

The claws and hard beak of the Hundred-winged Falcon are natural materials for making weapons, and it is hard to find a fortune. The wings and feathers under its armpits are rare and exclusive luxury products for nobles in this world that are on par with white fox fur, dragon fragrance wood and other items.

Countless nobles dreamed of this kind of feather with a rare variety of bright colors. Since this bird of prey and ferocious beast in the sky would never land a few times in their lifetime, they had almost no natural enemies. The only few times they landed in order to mate and lay eggs in their lifetime became the best time for hunters to attack.

At this time, because of laying eggs and giving birth to children, they will fight to the death to protect their nests even if they are attacked, and will not escape. Often, they will engage in a fierce and bloody battle with the powerful hunters.

In a battle to capture a hundred-winged falcon, noble merchants often have to save dozens of lives in order to capture a hundred-winged falcon!

Some people say: The reason why the feathers of the winged falcons are so bright after decoration is that every fluff is watered with blood!

Like the fan in Agatha's hand, it is simply jaw-dropping. Someone once estimated the price of this fan: if it is auctioned, the auction price can even support the civilians in a county for fifty years!

This is definitely not a luxury that ordinary wealthy businessmen can possess. It is often a symbol of status and status. If she is not the daughter of the president of the Krenbel Chamber of Commerce, if she is not the favorite niece of the Duke of Tarreras, she would not have such priceless ornaments at all.

Although Tang Jie didn't know how many gold coins this fan could be worth, the bright colors of the feathers on the fan made Tang Jie feel that Agatha didn't seem to hold it like a fan, but a colorful stream of light.

He smiled and answered Agatha's joke to him: "Don't joke, you should know that I just have such an empty seat." He didn't seem to want to get too involved with her on this issue, so he smiled and pointed at the fan in Agatha's hand and said, "Your fan should be worth a lot of money, right?"

Agatha smiled with a flash of eyes, and handed the fan to Tang Jie openly, saying, "Do you see how much it is worth?"

Although Tang Jie can be regarded as a two-year-old person, he is not good at dealing with such true high-class etiquette, especially some things that nobles often show off to each other, such as identifying each other's luxury goods to compare with each other.

Tang Jie is good at fighting and fighting life and death. It is definitely not his specialty to let him identify the value of such luxurious luxury goods.

Tang Jie took the fan and played with it in his hand. He felt that the handle of the fan at the beginning was as cool as jade, and there were exquisite and detailed epic patterns on it. The small patterns seemed majestic due to the lifelike carving. Tang Jie picked it up and shook it for a while, and felt a gust of fragrant wind thrust into his heart, making people's heart beat, as if the beauty in front of him also became much more charming and charming.

"This should be a lot of money..." Tang Jie felt a little timid, but he couldn't let go of his jeerful gaze under Agatha's joking gaze, so he had to bite the bullet and guess seriously, "Well, I guess I'll need at least tens of thousands of gold coins..."

Tens of thousands of gold coins were already a sky-high price in Tang Jie's mind, because the best warships he had purchased were only tens of thousands of gold coins.

This fan cannot be used to eat to satisfy hunger when hunger, it cannot be used as a weapon to defend yourself when the enemy attacks, and it cannot be used as clothes to wear to keep warm when it is cold. This is not possible, and that is not possible. What is its use? Thousands of gold coins are amazing!

If Tang Jie hadn't been afraid of showing his timidity, he deliberately said more, otherwise Tang Jie wouldn't have set such a price for this fan.

When Agatha heard the price set by Tang Jie, she couldn't help but burst into laughter, but she quickly tensed her face, a smile on the corner of her mouth, and her eyes were bent into two crescent moons.

Tang Jie was a little surprised by her laughing: "What? I guess too much?"

Agatha couldn't help but giggled: "Okay, okay, you say that more than 100,000 is more than 100,000, my captain!"

"How many..." Tang Jie put away the fan, then stretched his hand out of the boat, glared at her, and pretended to be angry, "I'll throw it away if I don't say it, see if you feel sorry for it!"

Agatha had no intention of being anxious at all. She smiled slightly and said, "My Captain, if you want to throw it away, just throw it away..."

"Ah..." Tang Jie was stunned for a moment. "No matter how valuable this is, it is worth thousands of gold coins, right? Is it thrown away?"

Since Tang Jiezai sold Ye Tian and almost squandered Athos' treasure without feeling distressed, he finally realized the importance of money. At this time, thousands of gold coins were already awesome in his heart. Just kidding, thousands of gold coins can be used to buy more than a dozen good cannons!

Agatha smiled and said, "It's okay, my captain, because the treasure of wealth that I want most in my life is already in front of me. Are there any other luxury goods that are that important?"

After Agatha said this, her heart pounded, her cheeks blushed, and the greasy beauty of the girl's slender neck exuded a sensation of imaginative crimson, like water rubbing rouge, which was extremely moving.

How would he answer me?

Respond to me? Or reject me?

If it was to respond to me, what would he respond? Will he kiss me?

Oh my God, there are so many people here, will he kiss me?

For example, what should I do if he refuses me?

The sea god, why do I easily do something exciting when I see him?

I really shouldn't say such words at this time. For the sake of the God of Mercy, what should I do if he rejects me...

The girl's heart was moving, like a panicked deer, waiting nervously.

After hearing these almost confessed words, it would be fake if he said he was not moved!

Who can be ruthless if a person is not a plant or a tree?

What's more, they already have a feeling of sharing weal and woe. Although the beauty in front of them is not considered a stunning beauty like Octavier and Angel, she is also an extremely rare beauty. She has a slim figure and a generous and elegant spirit between her words and smiles. How can she not attract a man with a strong spirit?

Tang Jie was a little moved. He wanted to hug the girl and be intimate, but he knew that it was not possible now. At this time, they were standing on the deck of the Eagle, with countless eyes looking at them in full view.

Moreover, Tang Jie had a conflict with Angel and was feeling very nervous. He didn't want to be confused with another woman at this time.

Tang Jie smiled, took back the hand holding the flower fan, stuffed it into Agatha's hand, and patted her head as if comforting a child: "Put the thing, I know it must be more than the price I guessed before... But I really want to know why you suddenly asked me to guess the price of this fan? Your actions made me feel like you were showing off your family's wealth to me?"

Seeing that Tang Jie did not respond to her words positively, Agatha suddenly relaxed her tension and uneasiness, but when she relaxed, the disappointment in her eyes flashed.

But Agatha is a noble elite who has been trained for many years. She quickly came out of her own feelings. She smiled and answered Tang Jie's words just now: "My Captain, do you know why our Emperor Majesty wants you to walk on the water instead of 6 routes?"

"Ha, you won't talk about this question, I still want to ask!" Tang Jie pointed to the boatmen who were arching their bodies and whispering neat slogans on the shore. These dense boatmen were like a group of majestic black ants on the shore. They were slowly moving forward in the horns in black. Countless thick ropes trembled in the air and weaving into an extremely huge net, which dragged the Eagle and the ship behind it to move forward.

Tang Jie said, "Look there, there are at least tens of thousands of boatmen there! Oh my god, I have never seen tens of thousands of boatmen pulling ships forward! Why do we abandon the simple 6 routes and choose such a waterway that is useless to manpower and material resources?"

Agatha looked at the shore, as if she was already commonplace for this kind of scene. She smiled: "Do you think it's shocking?"

Tang Jie's face was full of disgust: "Shocking? If you think the scene of tens of thousands of slaves being enslaved together is shocking, then okay, I'm honest, I'm shocked!"

Agatha looked at Tang Jie with a serious face, and her eyes fell on the slaves on the shore who were whipped from time to time. She said slowly: "My Captain, this is why I asked you that way just now. My Captain, you must understand that you are now the Pond Empire. When you are about to arrive, this empire is the most prosperous, strongest and greatest city in the empire. It is not Sissis or Dam City. It is Garcia, an imperial capital, a city that even the gods dare not invade!"

Agatha said slowly: "In this city, there are the richest people in the world, the most powerful people in the world, and of course the most luxurious people in the world. Here, if you want to compete with people, the high-level sword fighters you can find can line up from the east of the city to the west of the city! Here, if you want to compete with people who are richer, even if you find ten treasures of Atos, it is not enough for you to spend! Here, if you want to show off your authority on the Sea of ​​Niercia, you will find more authoritative people than you, like fish and shrimp in the sea!"

Tang Jie listened quietly, and he said lightly: "This is a warning, or a threat?"

Agatha shook her head, her voice soft and gentle: "No, my dear Captain, as your most loyal friend and partner, as a comrade who once escaped from the clutches of death with you, I need to remind you that you must understand your current situation!"

"Look at your expression just now, you are sympathizing with the slaves, right? My captain, you can sympathize with them, but please don't show it on your face. You have to learn to hide them. These slaves are not worthy of your sympathy, because no one in the imperial capital Garcia will sympathize with them. Once you get there, you will show your sympathy in that city without a market. On the contrary, the people in the imperial capital Garcia will regard you as an alien because you sympathize with the slaves..."

"They will despise you, hostile to you, reject you, and then attack you, attack you, attack you, and destroy you. This is the survival rule of the imperial capital Galcia. If you don't adapt to this group of people, you will be forced out by them." Agatha's eyes were filled with strong concern, and she stared at Tang Jie deeply. "My captain, although I have always hoped to see your figure in the imperial capital Galcia, I really don't want you to make enemies everywhere in the imperial capital because of your uniqueness."

Tang Jie listened silently, and he suddenly smiled and said, "Okay, according to what you said, what should I do if I don't mess with more enemies?"

Agatha said, "Just like I asked you the price of that fan, you have to learn the so-called etiquette of the upper class, such as comparing each other's own luxury goods, such as estimating each other's luxury goods."

"Oh? But what can I do? Do you know how to do it? Teach me?" Tang Jie smiled slightly.

Agatha sighed: "My Captain, are you kidding? I have been learning to estimate the authenticity and price of a dusty gem since I was five years old. When I was eight, my teacher taught me to distinguish some authentic and fake paintings. When I was thirteen, my teacher began to teach me how to distinguish the types and vintages of higher wines..."

Tang Jie raised his eyebrows: "This seems like a good job! Can you taste the fine wine in the world?"

Agatha said with a wry smile: "If you light the most fishy liquid on your tongue and then let you identify the so-called wines that have been diluted almost like boiled water, do you think it's so good?"

Tang Jie's face was full of strange qualities: "No, this is too exaggerated, right?"

Agatha sighed long and said, "My Captain, there are so many rules in the upper class, which is much more complicated than you think! If you don't get familiar with it as soon as possible, what will await you soon will be a nightmare. You must know that His Majesty the Emperor has invited you to tomorrow's party!"

Tang Jie spread his hands and smiled sarcastically: "Okay, I, a vulgar person, can't attend this party of high-ranking people in the upper class?"

Agatha raised her head and looked at Tang Jie like an idiot: "My Captain, do you think our Emperor is the kind of person who can allow others to disobey him? His words cannot be disobeyed, my dear Captain!"

"It sounds like a Hongmen Banquet..." Tang Jie couldn't help but sigh.

"What is Hongmen Banquet? Is this another story?" A curious gaze flashed in Agatha's eyes.

Tang Jie smiled: "My dear Agatha, you are such a smart girl! Do you have anything else to remind me?"

Agatha said, "Yes, my captain, of course there is! Please remember your identity!"

"My identity?" Tang Jie raised his eyebrows.

Agatha nodded: "Yes, my captain, maybe you will be upset and even feel humiliated and angry, but I still want to say that, because I don't want you to do something that may hurt you in the future because you have forgotten your identity."

Tang Jie had already guessed what Agatha was saying in his heart, and what her words meant. He said in a deep voice: "Is it my pirate identity?"

Agatha nodded slowly and said, "Yes, you are a pirate who broke into the imperial capital. Maybe at the beginning, the people of this city will show some curiosity and attention to you, but when this curiosity fades, their hatred for you, a pirate who once disrupted the imperial war in Mosanbik will be revealed. Please keep this in mind. Always place yourself in the posture of a weak person, so that you will not attract too much attention from those powerful families."

Tang Jie listened to Agatha's words, he raised his head and said silently. He suddenly thought of the words that Princess Angel said to him coldly at the party last night: "May I ask, what's the matter with you, Mr. Pirate?"

This sentence is as cold as a scalpel, cutting Tang Jie's hot heart mercilessly!

Pirate, you are a lowly pirate!

Tang Jie sneered in his heart, are these so-called nobles in the upper class must be much nobler than pirates?

He thought, and the expression on his face became unconsciously rebellious, but his eyes were filled with sighs: "Agatha..."

Faced with Tang Jie's soft call, Agatha felt that her soft heart was hit. At this time, he looked like a lonely shark in the sea, so isolated and helpless. She replied softly: "I am here, my captain, what do you want to say?"

"Is it really that important to be a pirate?" Tang Jie turned his head and looked at Agatha with bright eyes.

Agatha was stunned for a moment, and soon said with a smile on her face: "My dear Captain, this is important to some people, but it is not important to some people."
To be continued...
