At night, the soft sea breeze rolls up the curtains and then falls down again. Through the high window, you can see the lights in hoplaner, and there are insects in the courtyard from outside.
Lorraine Hill sat at his desk, reading some letters from the club by the bright candlelight.
The papyrus felt rough and thick, and the black writing was clear under the orange candle.
Dear Miss Lacey
I'm Lucas from westerly north. I'd like to report something to you. In recent months, a large-scale uprising of miners and peasants broke out in the northern County of nide. These miners refused to pay heavy taxes and ores, broke down many warehouses in the county and obtained a lot of steel and other metals. Under the organization of some people, they built weapons and armor to equip themselves.
One thing I need to emphasize is that they are very organized, or very disciplined. There must be a group of well-educated people leading them. After independence, this group of people immediately maintained the local good order, and many of our shops in the county were not robbed and damaged.
After the incident, the Duke of cliff in the North began to gather vassals and other nobles in the castle, and finally formed a coalition of nearly 120000 troops to suppress. When I wrote this letter, the two sides had already had a decisive battle in the red desert three days ago. The independent army did not evade the war. They defeated the Allied forces led by the Duke of cliff on the frontal battlefield. The elite army [Mountain Copper sheep] was completely destroyed. The Duke of cliff fled after the war and disguised himself as a farmer in the countryside. He was captured yesterday because his skin was too white and his hands had no calluses for labor. Maybe he would be better dressed as a businessman.
Now the independent army is preparing to close the city for investigation. It is said that they want to clear up the crimes committed by the nobles and merchants before. Although our branch has not violated the westerly law, it has also been closely monitored. I wrote this letter in the middle of the night, and it came out from the chamber of Commerce. I can't predict what will happen in the future. If something happens to me, I would like to ask the eldest lady to take care of my family, who live in Redwood County in Vilga.
Finally, from the occasional talk of the independent army, it is mentioned that their leader, named Pullman, claimed to have been taught and inspired by a great sage to build an ideal country in the mainland. If I had only laughed at their wishful thinking before, but through these days' observation, my idea has been shaken. They may really replace Xifeng in a few years, I hope that the top management of the chamber of Commerce will pay attention to this matter and make early preparations.
Night of August 24, 1684
Lucas, in gravel City
The corners of the letter were a little wet. It seemed that the letter bird was caught in the rain on the road. In addition, there were several words written in a hurry on the back of the letter.
"The great sage's name is Lorraine hill, and no one has ever seen his face."
The girl looked at it several times, feeling a little complicated, surprised, sighed, happy, worried, uneasy and so on.
Who would have thought that a twig which was planted casually at that time has now become a towering tree, which still shocked the world.
The coir feather eagle, the messenger, stood on the special stand of the desk, motionless, staring at the girl. This kind of creature has the strength of sequence 1. There is one in the branch of caritis. Generally, only in case of emergency can it send a message. It flies very high and ordinary people can't stop it.
The girl slowly stroked the letter paper with her hand. After a long time, her mood gradually calmed down. She looked up at the coir feather eagle that had not yet flown away. Then she remembered that she had not paid for it. She rang the bell and asked the maid outside to prepare a delicious meal for the little guy.
Now that Pullman has come to this point, he can't turn back. Do you want to help him or not?
Since it was her who taught Pullman the knowledge, she naturally could not just sit by and ignore it. She certainly wanted to help.
To what extent? Just some oral advice, or help them plan, or devote themselves to this great cause.
Just the words of oral advice made the girl feel a little irresponsible. If she devoted herself to it, she was not ready to participate in the huge whirlpool of this era, the fierce eye of the storm.
She thinks that she is not so strong and firm. The strength here includes strength, mind, consciousness and so on.
Don't meet Pullman for the time being. Recalling this once young man, Lorraine Hill maliciously speculates that this guy will not let her go as soon as he meets, but it will be hard to shirk.
However, she will still give Pullman some help secretly, and will write to him when necessary to solve and answer some of his questions.
When the girl is thinking, her hair is spinning on her hands, constantly winding and rotating.
Well, it's a little annoying. Lorraine hill put his chin on his arm and looked at his hair askew.
Ben thought that she would continue to live in seclusion in the forest after solving the problem of Vega. She was more afraid of trouble and preferred to be alone. But the education and character she received from childhood made her have a good sense of responsibility.
Let her heartless to avoid some things, she can not put down, had to abide by the promise, to do some things, although it is not a nuisance, but still like a more free life.
It seemed to speed up the progress. She buried her head in her arm. She thought silently. The silky hair loosened from her fingertips and scattered on her shoulders.
---------------------
Three days later, the headquarters of caritis chamber of Commerce sent out various letters, asking all branches of westerly to shrink, leaving a small number of necessary personnel, and others to withdraw from westerly and return to Vilga to prevent being affected by the war.
The three major fleets of the chamber of Commerce, swordfish, trade wind and white bird, were all recalled, and the local branch Presidents were called to attend the conference in Hopland.
The carrees chamber of commerce organizes personnel to set up an intelligence analysis department so as to adjust trade strategy later.
Instead of rejecting the invitation of other Hopland families, Lorraine Hill will attend some recent banquets to meet representatives of other chambers of Commerce and family owners.
Finally, loranshire asked the following managers to select and recommend young people with excellent quality to teach extraordinary knowledge and organize training. Depending on her special skills and qualifications, she will provide the advanced information of supernormal job introduction.
The girl sat in front of the desk, writing all kinds of plans with a pen, her long golden hair on the red dress.
She began to plan things, and then she prepared several tables to sort out and analyze.
The burning candle swayed in the evening wind, and the figure on the desk was pulled very long.
