Chapter 229 Intelligence Department of the Secretariat

Ekbarnruth did not respond.

"Don't worry. Now that we know that his employer is Pheasalus, it's easy to find him." Valles said confidently.

When Chalcyponpas saw his son Rodginius, he had just walked out of the courtyard and was talking happily to other children.

Chalsyponpas shouted, and Rodimnisius, who had sharp ears, immediately looked up, and then smiled even more. He said goodbye to his companions, went straight to Chalsypimpas, and asked with a look of surprise. : "Dad, why are you here?"

"I have something to come to see Chief Maximus, and I stopped by to see you." Carlsipampas put on a serious face: "You have been here for more than half a year and have not contacted the tribe. What have you been doing? !”

"Dad, I'm not lazy!" Logimnisius yelled, "It's Chief Maximus who never assigned me a task and asked me to study in their school. I'm really not playful!"

"Then how are you studying here?" Carl Sipimpas's expression was still serious.

This question tickled Loginius, and he replied confidently: "I studied very well! The teacher often praised me. I memorized twenty-one letters in the Latin language and memorized one I can write more than a hundred words, can also write simple sentences, can add and subtract between one and a hundred, and can also do simple multiplication and division... After I pass this test today, I can participate in higher-level studies! "

"Can you pass?"

"Of course!"

At this time, Kalsipempas showed a smile. He stretched out his right hand, pressed it on his son's head, and patted it lightly: "Well done!"

When Loginius was in his own tribe, Carlsipempas went out to the mountains to work as a pirate and only came home a few times a year. He was left unattended at home and went up the mountains to catch monkeys and went down to the rivers to catch fish. He was very naughty, so Carlsypampas Every time Si came home, he had to reprimand him, and he rarely looked good. It was rare to hear a compliment today. Loginnisius was so excited that his face turned red. He didn't speak for a while, but just giggled.

Then Kalsipempas asked with some confusion: "When you were in the mountains before, you only knew how to play, but now you are here, why have you become sensible all of a sudden?"

Logimnisius replied unconvinced: "I am very sensible to begin with, but the adults in our village only know how to play every day because they have nothing to do. Naturally, I am influenced by them. But when I came here, Knicks The people in the tribe, whether they are men or women, adults or old people, are busy every day. Even the children who are a few years younger than me are studying hard here. I can’t disgrace our tribe by playing here every day and not doing anything!… …”

Kalsipempas was silent for a moment after hearing this: What his son said was indeed a big problem for his tribe. Because the land in the mountains was barren and could not grow much food, he decided to become a pirate and used the plundered food. Wealth feeds the tribe. However, the survival of the tribe was guaranteed to a certain extent, but it led to him leading his men to fight to the death at sea. Some people in the tribe had nothing to do all day long...

"Dad, you have worked too hard, and it is too dangerous for you guys to plunder at sea!"

The heart-warming words that came out of his son's mouth almost made Calsipempas break his guard, but the next words made him sink again: "I think you might as well disband your fleet and take our people with you. , join the Knicks tribe——"

"Who told you to say this?!" Kalsipempas asked in a stern tone, and subconsciously glanced at Valles, only to find that the other party had lagged far behind them at some point.

Rodimnisius took courage and continued: "Do you need anyone else to say this? Even if you are working so hard outside, our life in the mountains is still very difficult. We don't have enough to eat, we don't sleep well, and we don't have any medicine when we get sick...

In the past two years, you have tried your best to buy food for other tribes in Aldi, but when our tribe encountered difficulties, which of the tribes living on the plains offered a helping hand!

Dad, although the Knicks are a new tribe, they are really good! I believe you have seen acres and acres of wheat fields on both sides of the road when you came here. Every family in Nix owns a lot of land, so they have no worries about food and clothing!

In a very short period of time, they can build bridges that we can't even imagine, large waterwheels that we have never seen, they can also make clay pots, ironware... They will only get richer and richer! Now they can easily defeat the Pannoni who scare us. In the future, their strength will only be stronger and they will become the most powerful tribe in this area!

Since Chief Maximus has such a good relationship with you, you should bring us to join this tribe. The sooner we join, the more benefits we will get, including enough fields, more comfortable houses, and flocks of cattle and sheep... …

Everyone's life will get better, and you don't have to take risks on the sea anymore. You can live a good life with me and my eldest brother. Maybe you can become an official of the Nyx tribe and lead brave soldiers to teach those Pannoni a lesson. people! …”

Calsipempas stared blankly at the impassioned young man in front of him. He was completely different from the one who often covered himself with dust and his clothes were torn in the past. He couldn't help feeling filled with emotion.

Until my son urged me: "Dad, please speak, can you do it?!"

He sighed deeply and stretched out his big hand to touch his son's head. He stopped halfway and landed on his son's thin shoulder. He patted him hard: "My child, you don't understand. Many things are not like that." simple!"

At dusk, Vales returned to the main house of Svedia. He did not go directly to his dormitory, but came to a wooden house not far behind the tribal hall.

"Bah! Bah! Bah!"

"Please come in." Cassius's voice came from inside.

Varos pushed the door open and went in. Cassius, who was sitting behind the wooden table, stood up and said with concern: "I guess you are back. You have been with Chief Kalsipempas for a day. You must be hungry already. I will give you dinner." I’ve already collected it for you. Please fill your stomach first and then tell me more.”

Valles was not polite. He pulled up a chair and sat at the wooden table. He grabbed the bread on the table with one hand and a wooden spoon with the other. He scooped up the wheat porridge from the steaming earthen pot and started to devour it. Eat up.

After he finished eating the bread, drank the wheat porridge, rubbed his bulging belly, and finished burping, he said: "When I took the leader of Carlsipempas to Westney, he kept watching In the wheat field beside the road, he would say to himself from time to time, "The wheat seedlings are growing so well and the wheat ears are so big." Later, he asked us how many acres of land our tribe members owned. When I told him that some tribesmen had more than When he saw a hundred acres, he was surprised and said, 'There are so many...'"

Cassius listened carefully and took notes in a thick book with an ink pen.

"...Later, when we were waiting outside the school, he also met an acquaintance named Ikebar Enrus. He must have been a pirate with Carl Sipimpas. Later, his left leg was injured and he returned After arriving at the tribe, my left leg is still lame..."

Cassius suddenly interrupted Valles' narration and asked: "Valles, you made a suggestion to this Ardei man named Ecbarnrus, 'Let him join our tribe.' He refused, but he What was the performance like at that time?”

Valles recalled the scene at that time with a smile: "He looked a little flustered...and he wanted to leave anxiously and didn't dare to talk to us more...I think he might have been a little moved."

Cassius used an ink pen to draw a circle on the name of Ekbarnrus, thinking in his mind: There are many employed Aldi people in the tribe now, although the tribe has publicly announced that it welcomes the Ardi people to join Nick. Si', but so far no Aldi people have made any request in this regard. Perhaps this Ekbarnruth is a breakthrough...

He cheered up: "Valos, keep talking!"

Valles went on to talk about the meeting between father and son Charles Pempas and the dialogue between them. Yes, although he deliberately stayed away, he was actually listening with his ears open.

"You mean that boy Roger Jimnisius took the initiative to persuade his father to lead the tribe to join our Knicks?!" Cassius was a little surprised.

"Yeah, I didn't expect him to say such things. It seems that our usual influence on him has begun to take effect."

Valles said with a slight worry: "It's just... I think it's too rash for him to say these words at this time. The identity of Carl Sipempas is very different from that of Ekbarn Russ. Is it possible?" Will it cause him to have opinions about our tribe? "

"It's not your fault. It was the reckless boy Rodimnisius who suddenly did this. There's nothing we can do about it. Besides, Carlsipempas didn't get angry or angry because of this, right! Maybe these words can help him. Play some good role..."

Cassius said with relief: "Anyway, I will report this matter to the leader as it is, and let the leader consider this matter, so we don't have to worry about it here. By the way, the leader told me before that when you come back Go to his place later.”

"What is it?"

"I don't know either." Cassius shrugged.

Valles walked out the door and looked back at the wooden house with a somewhat complicated mood: most of the children who entered the Secretariat now have their own positions. Akgo went to the Ministry of Military Affairs as a staff member, and Magus In the Ministry of Finance, he was in charge of the treasury, Mainas went to the Ministry of Commerce as a clerk, Garrus went to the Ministry of Works as a clerk, Cassius was in charge of intelligence work in the Secretariat... Even Nasuya was in charge of sorting in the Secretariat. Government orders and documents, only he is still doing odd jobs in the secretarial department.
