Chapter 91 Joke
After bidding farewell to Queller and his party, Paul returned to his office. In addition to chief secretary Boehner, he also called the new consultant Ladi.
"Welcome, Miss Ladi, may I ask you a personal question?"
"Excuse me, Lord Grayman."
"Why did you change jobs? What about? Uh... you gave up your original career as an adventurer and became a consultant with me.”
Ladi replied: "Lord Graiman, I am a naturalist. I joined the adventure group to travel around to increase my knowledge. Now I think it is time to accumulate knowledge. So I need to find a secluded place. , and concentrated on sorting out the income from his travels in recent years. "
She had already considered that someone would ask him this question, and had thought of her words in advance, so she didn't panic at all.
Paul curled his lips, after a few more years of industrial and commercial development, Alda would no longer be so "secluded".
But of course he would not speak out and drive people away.
He reminded: "Don't neglect your own work when you are sorting out knowledge!"
Miss Scholar nodded: "Of course, Lord Grayman. In fact, I originally planned to go to Weiss College to be a teacher, but the steward arranged a consultant position for me. But as a scholar, please don't doubt my sense of responsibility. . ”
Paul didn’t doubt La Di very much. A person who risked his life to save people from the tiger’s mouth should have good moral standards.
He thought of another question: "Where do you live now?"
"The Government Administration has arranged accommodation for me in the dormitory next to the Lord's Mansion. I am very satisfied with the environment there."
"Well, that's good. By the way, Ms. Ladi, the Ms. Dias who was rescued by you last time is also working as a consultant here. Now you are colleagues. You can spend more time with me if you have time. Communicate? ”
"Really?" This was beyond La Di's expectation, but it would be good to find another scholar here. Maybe we can exchange a lot of new knowledge with her.
"Master Graiman, if there is nothing else, I will leave first. Director Ford is still waiting for a report from me."
Unexpectedly, Paul stopped her: "Ah, don't worry yet, Miss Ladi."
She asked: "Does Mr. Grayman have anything else to do?"
Paul folded his hands on the table and expressed With a solemn expression, he asked: "Miss Ladi has traveled to many countries with the Leachman Adventure Group over the years, right?"
Miss Scholar nodded.
Paul continued to ask: "So you have a basic understanding of the situation in each country?"
Ladi said: "It's just so so. Except for the southern countries, I don't know much about other places. The knowledge is superficial."
Paul asked: "Do you know anything about the laws of each country?"
La Di nodded: "The adventurer is going to a strange country. Beforehand, it is necessary to understand the laws of this country to avoid unnecessary trouble. ”
"Really? That would be great."
Paul hammered his hand, as if he had found a treasure.
“I am preparing a series of reforms for the territory, and many laws will inevitably be introduced during this period. In order to avoid changing orders overnight and not stepping on the pitfalls that my predecessors have stepped on, I plan to carefully refer to the historical and current laws of various countries. The legal provisions used. Since you know the laws of many countries and are also a historian, you must be able to help me a lot in this regard."
La Di breathed a sigh of relief and said. : "Lord Grayman has given you the award. I am honored to contribute to you within my ability."
Paul said happily: "Then let's say it, I will be in the castle Ask someone to tidy up an office for you in case I need to consult you at any time.”
Ladi nodded and said: "I obey your instructions, my lord."
Paul was about to let her go back, but suddenly he became playful.
He showed a serious expression and said: "Actually, I already have some ideas in my mind. I will tell you now, and then you can help me compile a draft and submit it to the Government Affairs Council for discussion tomorrow. ”
Is there a mission so soon? Ladi responded without hesitation: "Please speak, Lord."
She concentrated and listened carefully to what Paul had to say.
Paul suddenly stood up and said: "In this era, people's hearts are not ancient, the world is declining, and many precious traditions have been lost." He showed a sad look on his face, waved his hands and said, "So I plan to use the law to Forced restoration of some ancient and precious traditions?"
"Well!" Ms. Scholar agreed very much with Paul's opinion: "Master Graiman, what traditions do you want to restore?"
Paul slammed the table and said loudly: "I have decided, let's start with that thing first!"
That thing? What exactly happened? Not only Miss Scholar, but also Bernard stretched out his neck and waited quietly for the lord's next words.
Paul raised his head at a 45-degree angle and said in a righteous and awe-inspiring tone:
"I have decided to restore the legendary lord Chu-Ye-right first! Miss Ladi, go and help me draft one. Law."
As soon as this was said, the huge office fell into silence.
Bernard's face was dull, while Miss Scholar's face was full of black lines.
"Pfft!" Finally, Bernard's sneer broke the silence, and he immediately covered his mouth.
"Count Paul Grayman!"
Miss Scholar's eyes were full of shame and anger, and her face was as red as a ripe apple.
Although I knew the other party was joking, it was too much.
“Teasing women in broad daylight is not what a qualified noble would do!”
Ever since that conversation under the moon, I still have such a good impression of him. Come on, how could he do this?
The more La Di thought about it, the more annoyed she became. She blushed and said, "Please transfer me to Weiss College to teach. I think it will be more suitable for me there."
"Hahaha! It's just a joke, don't take it so seriously. Well."
Seeing Miss Scholar looking so serious, Paul found it very interesting.
"This joke is too bad, please don't do it again in the future."
Ladi didn't insist on the idea of teaching in the college, so it was over. After all, the other party really It's a joke.
She begged Paul: "If there is nothing else, I will resign first."
"Okay, okay, but I really need your help with the law. If I see you next time, I will really help you." It’s business.”
I originally wanted to make a few more jokes, but it seems that with my ability to control humor, I think the other party will leave if I continue, and I will lose a rare person. of talent.
After Miss Scholar left, Chief Secretary Bernard, who was still in the office, said: "Sir Graiman, I have seen a very different version of you today than in the past."
Paul shrugged: "What? Am I that rigid on weekdays? Okay, let's talk about something else. I see you are carrying a notebook. Is there something wrong?"
Bernard opened his notebook and looked at it and said: "It is indeed true. The Earl of Kent of Emden arrived in Lake Town yesterday evening and requested to meet you."
Paul was stunned: "The Earl of Kent of Emden "I don't have much contact with him?"
In fact, it's not that we have any contact. When the pirates invaded, Controller Ford wrote a letter to Kent asking for help, but the other party asked Alda to vassal him, and then nothing happened.
Later, the intelligence chief Hansel caught several spies who secretly inquired about the secret recipe of papermaking. Under interrogation, they were actually sent by the Earl of Kent.
In short, Paul didn't have a good impression of him.
He told Bernard: "Please arrange a time for me to come and meet this envoy."
I coded a chapter and uploaded it first, but I really can't update it tomorrow morning. , the fastest will be after noon.
Thanks to "Zimikui" for the reward.
