Chapter 477 Gerd Rodney 1

"Father in heaven!"

Hansel rubbed his eyes and read the letter in his hand again.

This letter, more specifically, is an order written by His Majesty the King himself.

His Majesty the King... His Majesty the Supreme King, actually wrote me a letter in person!

After a series of changes in his mentality, such as shock, disbelief, and repeated confirmation, Hansel's heart was filled with ecstasy.

Half an hour ago, Hansel, the head of the Ministry of Agriculture, had just returned to his residence from the State Council after get off work, and the servant told him that three big men from the capital Jingyao were waiting for him in the reception room.

Since they came from Jingyao, Hansel did not dare to neglect them. He hurriedly washed his face and went to meet the guests.

As soon as he entered the reception room, he saw three young men in noble clothes sitting there.

The one sitting in the middle was a little older, with a thin face, deep eye sockets, a carefully trimmed mustache, and a steady look.

The two people next to him were much younger, not much older than Earl Graman. They looked very similar, and they were twins. Although their faces were rounder and white, they looked like the previous one. Perhaps they were his twin brothers.

"I am Baron Hansel Abbott, the royal representative in Northwest Bay, and the head of the agricultural department of the Administrative Council of Alda, Bayerding, and Emden. May I ask who you are...?"

Facing the guests from Jingyao, Hansel did not dare to be arrogant and asked about their identities very politely, although he could not help but repeat his title.

The older young man sitting in the middle slowly stood up and said with a smile:

"Baron Abbott, I am very happy to meet you and to see that you are so healthy in body and mind. My name is Gerd Rodney. Perhaps you have heard of my name."

Rodney?

Royal family?

Hansel was shocked.

Wait, Gerd Rodney?

Isn't he the eldest son of His Majesty's younger brother, Prince Jassim Rodney?

Soon, Hansel's head started to turn at high speed.

Duke Gerd has a pair of twin brothers, August Rodney and Yuriko Rodney. Are they the two beside him?

Hansel's face instantly changed to a solemn expression.

"Three distinguished adults, please forgive me for not welcoming you in person. Lord Earl, please sit down."

Yuriko Rodney smiled and sat down again, and Hansel asked the servant to make tea again with the best tea in the house.

"This is my brother, August Rodney." Gerd pointed to his brother on the left.

August Rodney had a gentle expression. After hearing his brother introduce himself, he immediately stood up and smiled at Hansel shyly, even raised his hand to greet Hansel. He gave people the feeling that he must be an easy-going, humble and shy person in daily life.

"This is my other brother, Yuriko Rodney." Gerd pointed to his brother on the right.

Unlike his twin brother, Yuriko Rodney looked very proud. He only nodded slightly to Hansel, and his butt did not move on the sofa.

Hansel saluted them one by one.

He asked: "I wonder what important things the three adults came to Northwest Bay for? Do you need me to do anything for you?"

"I came here mainly for something, and my two brothers came with me to see the world."

Gerd took out a letter and handed it to Hansel.

"The purpose of my trip is all in this letter."

Looking at the signature on the envelope, Hansel's heart was in turmoil.

He opened the envelope carefully with slightly trembling hands.

He read it carefully word by word.

"... I have ordered Earl Gerd to go to Northwest Bay as the royal family's plenipotentiary representative to discuss the introduction of the secondary industry into the royal territory with Earl Paul Graman, Duke Henry Ferdinand and other nobles in Northwest Bay. As the royal representative in Northwest Bay, you must assist Earl Gerd in completing this matter..."

Then there was the scene at the beginning.

In addition to his own family and friends and other personal contacts, Hansel's only contact channel with the Jingyao Kingdom government was the unpleasant Viscount Aiden in the Kingdom Intelligence Department, and this guy seemed to have forgotten him and had not sent a message for half a year.

Hansel didn't know whether he was the royal representative and the director of Alda Agriculture or the director of Alda Agriculture and the royal representative.

How come the king wrote to him in person all of a sudden?

He was really flattered!

Hansel read the contents of the letter over and over again three times with an unsatisfied mind.

Watching his actions, Yuriko Rodney was very disdainful and whispered to his brother: "After all, he is the son of a prostitute of inferior blood. He pretended to be a decent person at first, but now he has seen the letter from His Majesty the King and his true colors are exposed."

Gerd rolled his eyes at his brother and signaled him to shut up.

Hansel took a lot of effort to calm down his excitement and talked about business with the three guests.

No mistakes in one post, one content, one 6, one 9, one book, one bar!

"So, His Majesty the King intends to develop industry and commerce in the royal territory?"

"Yes." Gerd spread his hands, "Baron Abbott, I guess you also know that Jingyao has gathered a large number of southern nobles who have lost their territory?"

Southern nobles? That's it.

Hansel knew about this group of people from the letters from home, and also knew that this group of people gave the royal government a headache.

"To be honest, His Majesty is worried that these nobles will cause trouble if they do nothing all day, so he wants to find something for them to do."

"I see..."

Hansel seemed to be thinking about something.

Gerd continued: "After thinking about it, we can try to let these people engage in industry and commerce, especially that... that manufacturing industry. If we can make some achievements, we can also contribute to the economic prosperity of the kingdom."

Hansel replied: "His Majesty is really far-sighted."

Gerd asked uncertainly: "Uh... Baron Abbott, do you think... it's feasible?"

"It's feasible! It's very feasible! The speed of accumulating wealth through industry and commerce is definitely faster than guarding a few pieces of farmland to collect taxes and rent. In fact, I have written several proposals to Baron Aiden. Why, didn't he show them to you?"

Gerd was a little more certain in his heart. This is what his little cousin Irene said.

That Viscount Aiden is such a fool who blocks the way of speech.

But he still asked with some concern: "From what I know, the Northwest Bay has taken a step ahead. In this case, will our development in the south encounter strong competition?"

Hansel waved his hand: "Your Excellency can rest assured. According to the current situation, the development of industry and commerce is definitely a sure-win business - it only needs to be coordinated with several other measures."

Several other measures?

Gerd smiled bitterly in his heart. Could it be what Irene said?

If you like it, don't forget to vote!
