Chapter 390 Rest Day
The World Expo will still be held. Frederick will only appear at the opening ceremony on the first day, and then just pay attention to the total transaction volume every day.
Businessmen participating in the World Expo are not just at the Expo, they must travel to other places.
On this day, the zoo outside Weissenburg was crowded with people. Foreign businessmen, tourists and local children on vacation were lying on the railings in front of the cage, curious and scared.
Among the crowd were two inconspicuous young people wandering around, just like ordinary tourists.
The man was wearing the most popular dark gray pseudo-military uniform in Wesson State. Except for the number of buttons and the pattern on it, this suit was almost the same as the regular uniform of the Wesson Army infantry. A man with a good figure looked very energetic after wearing it.
The young-looking lady next to her is wearing a traditional local light blue long skirt, a mid-sleeve shirt and vest of the same color on her upper body, and a dark blue plaid apron in front of her body.
The locals knew she was an unmarried girl when they saw the bow of the lady's apron tied in the front. Married women would tie the bow on the side, and widowed women would tie it on the back, so the girl selling the corsage held it. Mu Tuo went over and said: "Sir, buy a corsage for your beautiful girlfriend."
The flower girl said from her own experience that the man and woman went out to play alone, but there was no relationship between them. The distance seems close but is far, it is obvious that one of them is interested in the other person. Generally speaking, the man is more evil-minded. If you ask the man to sell something, he will definitely buy it out of face.
However, Frederick, who was wearing makeup, smiled and said to the flower girl: "She is not my girlfriend, she is my mother."
The flower girl was so surprised that she froze, and the two people walked away and still didn't recover.
Psyche said to Frederick expressionlessly: "I'm so sorry to go to the zoo with an old woman like me when I have such a rare break."
Frederick replied with a smile: "It doesn't matter, having an elder in the family is a treasure. I rarely ask you for advice recently."
Today he has a day off. Maria and the ladies from the Principality of Mainz go to the swimming pool to swim, and Susan wants to attend medical school. During the monthly exam, Lilu went to the shipyard, so Psyche was free.
While talking, the two of them came to the Salamander Pavilion not far away. There is a three- to four-meter-square sand and gravel floor imitating the desert. Facing the guests is a large piece of glass. A half-meter-long, full-body A brown salamander lies on a stone looking at the audience.
Now it is feeding time. Tourists who paid extra money dropped a fattened rat from the hole in the ceiling under the guidance of the staff. When the salamander saw breakfast coming, he immediately ran over and vomited it out one meter away. With a pillar of fire, the mouse immediately matured.
The audience outside the glass window exclaimed, and the tourists who threw the mice were even more excited.
Psyche said to Frederick: "This kind of salamander lives in the desert in the southern part of the Ghazi Empire. The thin spines on its back from the neck to the tail are like swords, which can whip close prey. . These thin spines are brown at first, and one of them turns red about every year."
"Salamanders over ten years old will develop a blood bag the size of a match head next to the heart. The blood inside is rich in the essence of the fire element. When it enters the blood vessel to save life, it can increase its strength."
"The fire element in this blood is very suitable for the human body to absorb, and it is very effective in treating freezing injuries. Moreover, the older the salamander, the better the blood effect. The medicine made from the blood of a lizard that is over thirty years old is ten times more expensive than the same weight of gold. Rich people are always prepared for emergencies.”
"Its meat is fishy, spicy and not delicious."
After hearing the last word, Frederick said: "What a pity."
The two walked to the nearby bear pond again, The white bear from the dark land in the north was standing four or five meters high and waving to the tourists, and soon a fish flew over.
The businessmen who came from the same place as White Bear wanted to cry a little. This guy was famous for his brutality in his hometown, and he looked so cute even if he had food and accommodation here.
The two of them looked at the white bears and then went to the aquarium. They said that in addition to a few turtles, the aquarium actually displayed many large fish tanks, both fresh water and sea water. In addition to colorful fish tanks, The fish is also decorated with aquatic plants, corals and other decorations. With a trace of nostalgia, Frederick said to Psyche in the language of his hometown in his previous life: "I used to have a colleague who played with grass tanks. His home was in a village in the city. The roof floor was full of fish tanks, and there were fish from the flower and bird market. Not as good as his, I learned all this from him.”
Psyche had a faint smile on her face as she listened.
Frederick sighed and continued: "The little girl in his family is very cute, but she is stupid. She believed that soy sauce is salty cola. Once, the braised pork in the construction site canteen There was a big piece of ginger in it, and I said it was spicy chicken leg. After she finished eating, she asked me why there were no bones in the chicken leg."
Psyche's smile gradually solidified, and she wanted to cultivate ginger with a larger root. It’s on the schedule, Ginger is too young now.
When Frederick was alone with her, he would recall the events of his previous life from time to time, as if he wanted to confirm that his life was not a false dream.
He looked at the swarms of small fish and colorful shrimps lying on the sunken wood eating algae in the water tank, and did not notice any change in Psyche's expression.
In this era, there is no concept of ecosystem, but it does not prevent him from raising ornamental fish in ecological fish tanks. He just needs to change the fish frequently.
Colorful fish are not found everywhere, and few people have seen sea anemones swaying with the current. There are many tourists here, which also drives the sales of glass.
After Frederick looked at the two fish tanks, Psyche said to him: "You are going to the Kingdom of Gaul to participate in the knight competition next year, and you must start to strengthen your training now. There is a profound foundation there, you Maybe he will suffer a big loss."
Frederick felt that what she said was reasonable. There were many strange people in the world, and it was not surprising that he had little experience.
After the World Exposition this year, there was nothing much going on except for a trip to the Principality of Bain to attend this year's annual meeting of the Upstream Regional Cooperation Organization. Now that the three parties are cooperating happily, the meeting will only be about chatting, eating and drinking, and the specific matters will be solved by the subordinates.
The debate caused by female tractor drivers stopped because of the arrival of the World Exposition. Now everyone is discussing how to make money.
Frederick felt that this was fine. The ideological struggle did not happen overnight. Anyway, the seeds had been planted. Everyone should calm down and think more. When these topics arise again, they will definitely cause more intense disputes. collision.
The affairs of the Elbe River Convention Organization are not urgent. For those small nobles, this major diplomatic change requires in-depth thinking, and the conference will be held in February next year.
In the next six months, he will be relatively relaxed. He only needs to grasp the general direction and can concentrate on improving his strength.
While Frederick was thinking, the two walked out of the aquarium and came to the bird area.
The most famous thing here is the large steel birdcage with a diameter of fifty meters and a height of more than ten meters. The structure is made possible by great strength. There are trees planted inside and many colorful birds, many of them. Rich people would book the venue to play there.
Frederick was not too interested in this and asked Psyche: "How do you think I should train?"
The corners of Psyche's mouth raised slightly and said: "Tomorrow I will I’ll give you a set of training equipment.”
“Let’s go,” she said, pointing to a row of stalls not far away, “Let’s go eat.”
Frederick was looking forward to it, and spent the next day thinking about what kind of training method she would come up with.
The next morning, Frederick looked silently at the 5 kilograms of boxer briefs, 15 kilograms of long-sleeved T-shirts and long johns, and a pair of two kilograms of socks in front of him.
