Chapter 110: Negotiations with Southern Dukes

 This is Qinling’s first visit to Nanping City.

As one of the four first-tier cities in this civilization, this city is very prosperous, and the busy traffic is a true portrayal of this city.

The street pavement is paved with stone slabs and is flat and wide. The buildings on both sides are neat and orderly and magnificent. Those are the shops along the street, ranging from daily department stores to rare antiques.

This was also Miss Wright's first visit to Nanping City. Seeing such a prosperous and lively city, she finally came out of the state just now. This prosperity made her return to the world.

There are so many shops along the street that the number of shops in one street alone exceeds the number of shops in the entire town of Wright Territory. There are so many types of shops that even a small noble like her has never seen before.

Pedestrians walking on the street were all wearing exquisite clothes, which were even more exquisite than her clothes.

Qin Ling was not in a hurry to go to the Duke's Palace. He led everyone to wander on the street, surrounded by a group of scholars. Qin Ling didn't bother to care. They didn't dare to come up to chat with them anyway. They would naturally disperse when they got tired of watching.

Xiaoxiao was very happy, running around on the street, and soon he had a bunch of snacks in his hands.

"Where did you get your money?" Qin Ling grabbed Xiaoxiao and asked.

"Selling gold." Xiaoxiao said happily, "Hey, webmaster, I found that many low-level civilizations really like gold."

"After all, it's beautiful, stable, and rare." Tang Guo also held a lot of things in his hand. Qinling took a quick look and found that they were some handicrafts.

"Why did you buy these?"

"What's wrong? Is there a problem?"

"No, no, no, no problem." Qin Ling shook his head repeatedly, and then continued, "I just think you might prefer bows and crossbows."

Tang Guo was happy. She raised her arm and gently shook her bracelet: "I did buy what you said."

"Then these are..."

"A souvenir."

As expected, local specialty souvenirs are indispensable when traveling.

A few people were strolling along the street, and they didn't reach the center of the circle until it was getting late.

This is the building we saw before. From a distance, this building doesn’t seem to be very tall, but standing downstairs, especially against the backdrop of other low-rise buildings, this building looks particularly majestic and tall.

.

This building is indeed very high, more than 100 meters high, and those people who inspired the church are pretty good at it.

The Duke's Palace is located behind the Revelation Church, or to the north.

At this point, it is Miss Wright who has stepped forward, and Qin Ling only supports the situation when needed.

Notified the gatekeeper of the Duke's Palace, and soon someone came over and welcomed everyone into the Duke's Palace.

The servant guided a few people into the reception hall and then left. Several maids brought a few plates of snacks, and their little eyes suddenly lit up.

There was no one else in the reception hall. Miss Wright was sitting on the bench, looking a little cramped. Xiao Xiao was busy eating snacks. Tang Guo was playing with the souvenirs he bought and silently studying something with his tablet.

Qin Ling had nothing to do, looking at the decoration of the reception hall.

This room is very simple, with no extra decorations. There are only a few benches and a table, but simplicity does not mean simple. The table alone is very simple.

Well, it’s not that simple according to the level of local civilization.

The table top is made of natural crystal and wood, and the table legs are made of low-quality aluminum alloy.

Given the technological level of this civilization, natural crystals and aluminum alloys are difficult to obtain. Most of them are concentrated in the hands of the Church of Revelation. It is not easy for others to obtain these things.

After looking at the table, Qin Ling began to look at the bench. The main frame of the bench was still aluminum alloy, and the surface was covered with some kind of soft fiber filling. It was soft and quite good. There were pure gold carvings on the armrests on both sides.<

/p>

Just when Qin Ling was about to continue looking at the floor, the door to the reception hall opened.

The Duke of the South, who was in his prime, walked straight in. He was wearing a black hunting jacket with exquisite patterns embroidered with gold thread, and a decorative silver sword hanging from his waist.

The Duke of the South doesn't have much expression on his face. His angular face looks like a statue carved out of stone.

He looked at Miss Wright with cold eyes.

Miss Wright was a little panicked by being stared at, but she quickly thought of her experience in heaven not long ago and the grandeur of this world. So in an instant, the most powerful man in the entire Southern Territory became insignificant, even as small as a dust particle.

Not as good as anything.

Miss Wright suddenly calmed down. She stood up, bowed politely, then looked straight at the other person, and said calmly: "Your Majesty, I'm sorry that I cannot accept the engagement."

The Duke of the South's eyes became sharp. He stared at Miss Wright, then looked at the Qinling Mountains behind her: "Very good."

"Very good?" Qin Ling was stunned for a moment, what kind of reply is this?

"Let's talk." The Duke of the South sat opposite Miss Wright, "Viscount Wright, I hope you can seriously consider it."

"I've thought about it, let's not talk about the engagement." Miss Wright said categorically, "We are not from the same world, so we can't get together."

"The engagement is a notice, not a negotiation. You have no right to refuse."

"Of course I have the right to decide my own life."

"Your life? Does it mean you work hard all your life, don't have enough food, clothing, sleep or sleep, and finally die from overwork?" The Duke smiled, "That's not life, that's just survival. Now, you have a chance, a real life

I hope you can cherish the opportunity to decide how you want to live your life."

"What I will cherish, of course, is my own life. In my opinion, a life that strives for one's own ideals is a meaningful life, and that is ten thousand times better than the life you say."<

/p>

"Is that what you think? Oh, what a pity..."

A complicated expression flashed across Duke Nan's face, like regret or regret. This expression disappeared quickly, but it was still captured by Qin Ling.

"What's a pity?"

"Nothing." The Duke of the South said with a straight face, as if his face was made of stone, "I will ask you one last time, accept the engagement, and you can do what you want to do and realize your ideals. You should know

What do I mean? Even so, do you still refuse the engagement?"

"I refuse."

"Okay then."

The Duke of the South breathed a sigh of relief, as if he had put something down or picked something up.

"I have nothing to talk about with you. Now, it's time for me to have a serious talk with the visitors from outer space."

"Me? What can you talk about with me?"

Qin Ling did not expect that the Southern Duke would suddenly turn the topic to himself. In his original idea, he should have taken the initiative to bring the topic to himself.

"Yes, let's talk to you. Viscount Wright obviously has your support in making such a decision. Otherwise, she would not have made such an irrational decision." The Duke of the South looked at Qin Ling, "So, can you
