Chapter 57

"How long have I been away from the kingdom? Has anything big happened in the kingdom?"

Gray finally did not forget that he was the king of the country and his responsibility.

Although the little maid can't get in touch with the affairs of any country, if there is any big event, they can still receive some news as the maid who specially serves the king in the palace.

In particular, Miranda, the boss of the maids, can be regarded as the maid and housekeeper of the palace. She also has a little power in the castle. It's not difficult to get some information.

"Your Majesty, you have been away for five days. Nothing has happened in these five days. The Marquis has handled everything very well. Many people are praising the marquis." Miranda whispered as she pressed Gray's head. It was a very comfortable and gentle voice.

"That's good. My father is really good at dealing with these." Gray nodded and remembered what his father had just said. Suddenly, he was shocked. "No, you can't let him go. You have to let my father help me deal with all these things. Let him always be a consul for me and I'll just be a shopkeeper."

Thinking of this, gray raised his head from the waves, gently picked up the elf and put it into his crown. With a sincere attitude, he went to his father to admit his mistake, although he didn't know where he was wrong.

But Dad's anger is more terrible than his wife's anger. If you don't know your mistakes, you should recognize them.

What's more, dad is more important than his wife. He can't get around when he is the shopkeeper. It's no big deal to admit a mistake.

However, the Marquis has made up his mind and said that even if gray broke his mouth and offered any great benefit, he would not agree to go back to his own Hatu city.

The apology card fails and gray plays a pro attack.

Lord Marquis played the defense card, "career is the most important" to avoid this attack.

Not discouraged at all, gray played the mother card again, hoping to work.

The Marquis shook his head slightly, played the "36 ways to love children" and turned the mother card into the wife card, and launched a knowing blow.

Gray vomited blood and fought back. He launched a unique move. "It's not strange that many people are polite." he sent out binoculars, gold lion head walking sticks, makeup boxes, sapphire necklaces and diamond bracelets. He successfully plotted against his mother. The Marquis was defeated by a series of moves.

"Well, well, I can help you deal with political affairs, but you should also do a good job in the king's work. I give advice on everything and you nod. Moreover, you should give comments on how I deal with everything." The Marquis loved to play with the telescope. From there, he could even see the ears of wheat in the distant farmland.

"What my father said is that I must be a king, but I don't need to give an evaluation. I believe my father can do the best." Gray said cleverly.

If you want him to give advice, it's not too different from his own handling. The shopkeeper is not so good.

"Well, I won't show you some small things, but you must do the big things according to my requirements, or I'll go back immediately." Marquis Riley gave way to the trail.

His eyes were firmly fixed on gray, with an attitude that everyone would give in a little, or I would go back without this telescope.

In order to show his resolute attitude, the Marquis immediately handed out a thousand mile mirror and a walking stick, but his eyes were full of reluctance.

"Gray, your father's words are also very reasonable. You are a king now. Your responsibility is much greater than before. You can't be as casual as before."

His Majesty was very contemptuous of his mother's behavior of not speaking for himself after receiving gifts, but he had only silk and blood left and dared not question it any more, so he had to humiliatingly agree to this unequal condition.

"By the way, didn't you explain a lot of things before? Many people have situations to respond to you. I don't understand these things about you. You'd better go and have a look by yourself."

The Marquis took out a piece of paper on which several items were written.

Gray looked and reported his progress.

Those who built the castle over there have begun to lay the foundation. They have also found the manufacturing materials of the high-strength adhesive mentioned by gray, and have begun to test. The results are similar to what Gray said, but the sand used to make concrete is not easy to do.

Gray assigned the group of people who do agricultural research. Some have planted suitable seeds, some are selecting suitable land, some have selected the land and are fertilizing the soil. They can cultivate when Gray says the right time has come.

Gray nodded. This is good news. These agricultural masters selected from all over the country have some skills.

The iron mine has strengthened its defense. Scouts patrol a kilometer around every day. There is no accident, and the iron mine output tends to be stable.

The iron ore dug out every day can produce more than 300 kilograms of iron. Gray is not very satisfied with this amount, which is too small.

"Then I'll go to the castle first, and please my father here."

After reading these things, gray decided to deal with things on the other side of the castle first.

Although iron ore is important, its quantity is only a little less, which is not a big deal. Compared with the past, 300 kilograms of steel per day can alleviate the national demand for steel to a certain extent. Although his temporary requirement is that all these steel must be used in the army, and it can not take care of the people in a short time.

The castle is very important to him. What he wants to build is a castle beyond the level of hundreds of years in this era. It is an absolutely advanced city and is the most important base for him in the future.

With a small escort, gray came to the beach.

"Your Majesty, Frodo sends you his most sincere greetings."

Even if he didn't make a big fuss, the architect came quickly and found gray who was inspecting the construction site.

"The progress here is good, and everyone's division of labor is also very reasonable!" Gray covered his nose and walked quickly through the construction site.

Through the construction site with an indescribable smell, gray came to the coast and took a few deep breaths of air against the sea breeze.

"It's your Majesty's suggestion... Said Frodo respectfully. Just as he was going to continue flattering, gray interrupted him coldly.

"But you didn't listen to all my suggestions!" Gray snorted coldly.

"This... Frodo didn't hurry to explain to himself, but thought it over carefully before he said uncertainly:" I did everything according to your suggestions. I made my own decisions when you said you didn't understand some things... "

"It seems that you can't remember. Let me just say, did I ask you to build several toilets for the workers before starting?"

Frodo thought for a moment, and the cold sweat immediately came down. I remember that gray did mention the word "toilet" more than once, but he mentioned the word "toilet" in many places of the castle design drawing, but he was very excited and thought about other problems of the castle, so he didn't ask more questions in this regard.

More importantly, he had never heard of the word "toilet" and did not understand what it meant.

In this country, there is no word toilet, or it has not spread yet, only in a small territory.

For ordinary people, toilets can be used anywhere except at home, including the ground, streets, grasslands and woods. Of course, they can also be used at home when they are in a hurry.

"Remember?"

Gray's voice was no longer indifferent, but Frodo didn't dare to have any other thoughts. He quickly knelt on one knee, "this is my negligence. Please punish your majesty."
