Tai Lun lived in the palace for a few days, and went to visit several surrounding towns. After returning to the palace, he was not as excited as when he first came, and looked listless.
Hino asked him if he found any problems, Tai Lun shook his head, and explained with a look of regret: "When we parted, I promised with great ambition that I would build a stable and prosperous new home for you. I didn't expect this promise to be fulfilled by you first. gone."
Hino retorted dissatisfiedly: "Where will there be stability and abundance? I am so busy with government affairs that I am almost dizzy. Since you promised to build a paradise for us, then I will give you half of the government affairs. What do you think? I believe Tyron will not disappoint the elves' expectations."
Tai Lun suddenly asked suspiciously: "When I said these words in the past, you would surely comfort me and say that I would be able to realize my ideals in the future. Why has it become so realistic now? Am I just a useful government worker in your eyes?"
Hino raised his eyebrows and explained confidently: "I was young at that time, and I admired you very much. Now I find that I am actually quite powerful, and I can look at things from an equal perspective with you. Of course, I have to make good use of you, who is as powerful as me. stand up."
Tai Lun narrowed his eyes in despair: "Where did my flattering elf go? You are not him, I don't accept it."
Hino smiled and said, "I've always been like this. I haven't changed. It's just that I felt very inferior when I was a child. At that time, I thought you were very powerful, but now I'm as good as you. Tai Lun, I won't flatter you anymore!"
"But you will still coax that little fat dragon." Tai Lun complained about the unfair treatment with a cold face, and deliberately imitated the tone of Hino's speech to the little fat dragon with an exaggerated tone: "'Ilsa is amazing! Today's competition I flew half a meter higher yesterday'"
Tai Lun narrowed his eyes and asked in a low voice: "A 14-year-old dragon flies two and a half meters above the ground. What is there that deserves your applause?"
"That's different." Hino made no secret of his partiality: "When I praised you for being great when I was young, I really thought you were great. Now I don't praise you because I think you are as good as me, but when I was young, I praised Irsa for being great. It’s just to encourage him, I never thought he was great, I praise him now to encourage him, see, I haven’t changed a bit!”
Tai Lun finally couldn't hold it back, lowered his head, grinned, raised his head after a while, cleared his throat, and looked at the elf with a smile: "You really haven't changed a bit in terms of cuteness. I barely forgive you, what's the trouble with government affairs? Leave it to me to try."
When Xinuo was young, he felt that Tai Lun was very accurate in judging Xuelu and Aowei's political situation. After starting to cooperate, he found that this kid really had a talent for government affairs.
With the help of Tai Lun, the initial construction of the Kingdom of Stars was divided into four clear directions.
After inspecting the local characteristic output and terrain and water conservancy, Tai Lun and Sino worked together to draw up the first five-year development plan.
The cohesiveness of the islanders has created a momentum of development. In less than three years, the Kingdom of the Stars completed the foundation of food reserves and began to develop the second stage of manufacturing.
However, a year later, the original development plan entered a period of stagnation for the first time.
The reason is neither that the imperial court’s subsidy to the manufacturing industry is difficult to maintain, nor that the people cannot get used to the way of making a living by manual production. The problem lies in the currency.
The new policies of Hino and Tai Lun have made material accumulation on the island too rapid. The gold, silver and copper coins used to purchase necessities in the past are not enough for trading among the islanders.
Currency became tighter, and merchants no longer used barter to trade. In contrast, non-essential manufacturing goods became cheap, so that the money earned from trading was not enough to fill the gap in the government's subsidized industries.
Tyron was at a loss for what to do about this, but Xino vaguely understood that the problem was caused by monetary tightening, so he urgently summoned his companions to formulate a new ore mining plan.
Gold and silver mining has been done for the past four years, but now it needs to increase investment. Xinuo invited all the best prospecting families on the island to the capital, and assigned dragon warriors to lead them to travel thousands of miles a day, in order to solve the currency as quickly as possible. shortage problem.
At noon that day, Claude flew back to the temporary camp with the most experienced old prospector of the Hampden family on his back. He could smell the fragrant wheat biscuits and fresh jam in midair.
Claude frowned, guessing that the youngest son of the Hampden family was already waiting for him not far away.
Sure enough, as soon as he landed, Louis ran to him from the tent holding a clay plate full of jam and biscuits.
Louis Hampden raised his face, and whispered hello to Claude excitedly and depressingly: "Finally back, you must be hungry, Mr. Blair? Please try my baked biscuits!"
Claude shook his head, walked around him with some annoyance, and walked towards the tent.
Louis immediately followed closely, and was about to ask Claude about his harvest today when he was slapped hard on the back of the head by the patriarch's grandfather behind him.
"Don't pester Lord Blair!" Grandpa stared at his embarrassing grandson with cloudy eyes like blunt knives, he took a step forward, and threatened in a low voice: "If you dare to say one more word to Sir, I'll break your leg when you get back. "
Louis covered the back of his head from the beating with one hand, and looked at his grandfather dully. There was no anger or grievance on his face. He was used to this kind of treatment.
After being dazed for a while, Louis found a flaw in his grandfather's words. He mustered up the courage to ask in a low voice, "Then if Mr. Blair takes the initiative to talk to me, can I answer?"
Grandpa gave him a fierce look: "Stop dreaming!"
Louis didn't dare to talk back, and silently followed his grandfather into the tent.
His four older brothers and three older sisters had been waiting in the tent for a long time, and at this moment they were all surrounded by Claude Blair to greet him.
Louis quickly stopped looking at Claude intensely because Claude was talking to his brothers and sisters.
Being left out was a normal part of Louis' life, but he still felt bad for being treated differently by the dragon warrior.
When the dragon warrior first came to their manor, his attitude towards Louis was normal.
Their family used to search for mines for the nobles, and they could speak the common language, so the communication with the Dragon Clan was smooth. Claude was quite enthusiastic about Louis at the time, and even sincerely praised him for the delicious baked desserts.
That was the proudest moment in Louis' life - being praised by the Dragon Clan.
But the good times didn't last long, and his elder brother quickly told Claude the secret—"My lord, please ignore my little brother Louis, he likes men, he should have been executed according to the previous law, I hope he won't let him You feel sick."
After hearing what he said, Claude stared at him for a long time as if he didn't understand, and then looked at Louis in surprise.
Louis' heart stopped beating for an instant.
After recovering, Claude lowered his head and said in a low voice, "It's okay."
The phrase "it's okay" made Louis feel like he was resurrected at that moment.
He thought that Claude really thought it was "okay".
But in fact, from that moment on, Claude would never look at Louis with his deep eyes again, and would deliberately avoid looking at him when speaking.
Louis tried his best to keep this friendship, but it caused resistance instead, and Claude was even more reluctant to talk to him, as if he was afraid of giving him some wrong hints.
In all fairness, Louis didn't think that much about this dragon warrior. It's just that in the past few years, court officials wrote new histories of the seven clans, which made Louis admire the powerful dragon race, but he never thought anything wrong.
Yes, when Louis was young, he loved his neighbor's elder brother. Because he sent the letter of love, he was discriminated against and bullied by the whole family and even the whole town. Since then, he has never fallen in love again.
Not once.
After the neighbor's brother pulled his hair, dragged him to the streets of the town, and forced him to read out loud the nasty words he wrote, he never dared again.
Louis has always been ashamed of his family for humiliating him, so no matter how the elders humiliate him, he will not resist, but he really hates that his elder brother always tells his secrets to his new friends.
Now he has to accept the fact that his dream dragon friend, Claude, has completely left him.
Louis looked down at the biscuit in his hand, his eyes were numb, as if he couldn't even show his sadness.
Mother and father came in from outside the tent and put the freshly roasted leg of lamb on the dining table.
Mother asked Grandpa: "Did Master Brengo come back with you?"
"No, Ilsa didn't go with us at all in the morning." Claude answered first: "I couldn't wake him up, so his mother had to come and perform the ear pulling technique herself."
"Is Master Brengo still sleeping?" Mrs. Hampden asked concerned, "I'll ask him if he's hungry."
"Let me go!"
"I'm going, I'm going!"
Mrs. Hampden's three daughters immediately stood up, scrambling to push outside the tent.
Louis heard his elder brother clear his throat, raised his head subconsciously, and saw his elder brother mouthing a sarcasm and asked him, "Why don't you rush to go together?"
Louis lowered his head and ignored the elder brother's ridicule.
Although he worships the Dragon Clan, Louis is not interested in the "Son of God" Ilsa Brengo who came to town with Claude.
Like Ilsa wasn't interested in him either.
Claude was willing to talk to him at first, but the handsome boy with purple pupils never looked at him.
Only when his baked desserts had just come out of the oven, Ilsa would take the initiative to walk up to him, waiting for him to invite her to taste them, and then ate most of them unceremoniously, turned around and left without a word of polite greetings.
But Louis had to admit that the dragon was so unbelievably handsome that even the handsome Lord Claude would look a bit rough standing beside him.
Beauty makes people lose their minds, otherwise Louis would not be able to resist those purple eyes looking forward to eating desserts after being treated rudely by Ilsa repeatedly.
Of course, what made Louis even more angry was that Ilsa sometimes joked with his brothers and sisters, which made Louis suspect that Ilsa deliberately snubbed him because he heard his elder brother tell him secrets about him.
The three sisters were completely lost, talking about Ilsa day and night.
Louis felt that Ilsa must have been very attractive in their presence, but he would never be qualified to experience it for himself.
Maybe it was jealousy that made him resist, he even hated that good-looking dragon boy a bit, so how could he compete with his sisters for the chance to wake Ilsa up?
Not long after, the three sisters brought Ilsa into the tent together. They were radiant and very happy.
Perhaps because they wanted so much to attract the attention of the dragon boy, the sisters racked their brains to chatter endlessly, so much so that they said a lot of stupid things.
Louis saw that when the third sister stopped, her cheeks were slightly flushed, and she spread out a small fan to slap her face quickly, obviously realizing that she had lost her composure.
But she didn't realize that the dragon boy didn't pay attention to what she said at all. The boy's purple pupils were still sleepy, staring blankly at the dishes on the table.
After praying before the meal, Ilsa was completely awakened by a mouthful of delicious food. He began to listen curiously to the conversations of the people around him, and everyone around him was also trying to get his attention.
Only Louis is paying attention to Claude.
Seeing Claude put down the knife and fork, Louis immediately seized the opportunity, pushed the biscuit in front of him to Claude opposite, and whispered, "Have some jam biscuits. I have to go to the mountains in the north in the afternoon. I am very hungry baking biscuits."
The smell of biscuits immediately attracted Ilsa beside Claude.
And the moment Ilsa looked at the biscuit, everyone also looked at the biscuit with him.
At this moment, Ilsa was about two chairs away from Claude. Louis pushed the biscuit all the way to Claude's dinner plate, and the meaning was very obvious—he didn't intend to give it to Bielong.
Ilsa looked up at Louis, then down at Biscuit.
But this time Louis did not invite Ilsa to enjoy the dessert, because in this case, Claude would give all the cookies to Ilsa without eating a bite.
Everyone at the table was reminding Louis to push the biscuit between the two dragons with their eyes, but Louis pretended not to see it and only stared at Claude firmly.
It's as if if Claude is willing to pick up a cookie, their friendship will be restored.
This made Claude even more at a loss, and even turned his head to look at Ilsa next to him for help.
Ilsa narrowed her eyes and said ferociously: "Eat, Uncle Claude, let's go to the northern mountain together in the afternoon, it doesn't matter if Ilsa can starve to death."
Everyone laughed, and the problem had been clarified by Ilsa with a tactful joke. The sisters immediately grabbed the biscuits, put them in the middle of the table, and warmly greeted Ilsa to eat together.
Louis lost the opportunity to sue for peace, his face darkened suddenly, and his brows were deeply frowned.
Ilsa seemed to feel that he was not happy, and immediately lowered her eyes and continued to eat the roast leg of lamb on her plate, and she had no bones to eat the biscuits baked by Louis.
After eating, we talked for a while.
The biscuit placed in the middle of the table was not eaten by anyone, Claude deliberately refused to eat it, Ilsa refused to eat it in anger, and everyone else wanted to leave it for Ilsa to eat.
Mother didn't get up until she was about to clear the table, and wanted to grab some biscuits for everyone, but the elder brother immediately raised his hand to stop her.
The eldest brother said: "Don't give the guests the biscuits baked by the fifth brother, it's dirty to death."
Mom retorted: "Where is it dirty? Don't talk nonsense."
The elder brother talked about how Louis used to sneak into the chicken shed from the back wall to steal eggs, and he also imitated how he clumsily ran to the river to wash his hands with his palms up like a bear walking when he accidentally got chicken feces on his palms.
He learned it perfectly, the brothers laughed out loud, and Ilsa watched curiously.
Feeling ashamed for a rare time, Louis lowered his head.
At this moment, Claude stood up suddenly, said "ready to leave" with a serious expression, and walked straight out of the tent, as if deliberately interrupting the elder brother's humiliation of Louis.
In an instant, a warm current surged in Louis' cold chest, but Claude quickly left the camp.
Grandpa handed the ancestral prospecting stone to Louis, and solemnly told him: "In the afternoon, you go prospecting with the two adults, and you are not allowed to chatter irrelevant things to the adults."
Louis knew that his grandfather didn't give him a chance to get close to Claude, but that he was the most sensitive person in the family to the ancestral prospecting. His grandfather probably didn't want to get nothing all day, so he decided to let him go.
After explaining, Grandpa also left the tent.
After Mom and Dad went out, only the juniors were left in the camp, so the eldest brother talked about the embarrassing things about Louis in the past even more brazenly, making everyone laugh.
Anyway, Claude was not there, and Louis didn't bother to talk to him. He got up and was about to leave, but the elder brother grabbed his arm roughly, twisted it back, his fingers softened, and the prospecting stone fell into the elder brother's hands.
Louis turned around in horror: "What are you doing? Give me back the stone!"
The elder brother smiled rascally and said, "I can't let you continue to harass the two adults, let me do it myself in the afternoon."
"No! Grandpa gave me the task!" Louis rushed forward to fight angrily, but was pushed against the corner of the table by his elder brother, causing a sore back. He angrily threatened: "I will tell grandpa!"
However, this powerless threat made the eldest brother bend over with a smile.
Louis covered his lower back with one hand, and looked desperately across everyone's faces. He happened to see Ilsa stand up, walk over, raised his chin to his elder brother, and said, "Let's go."
The eldest brother immediately nodded hospitablely, smiled and followed Ilsa, ready to set off to search for the mine.
Ilsa didn't take a few steps, then stopped and looked back, looked at his elder brother suspiciously, and reminded again: "Give it to him, Ilsa is gone."
"What?" The eldest brother quickly realized that Ilsa wanted him to return the stone to Louis and let Louis follow him to find the mine.
The eldest brother hurriedly explained to the Son of God flatteringly: "There is no need for him to go, I will accompany you to find the mine in the afternoon, don't worry! I am older than the fifth brother, and I have more experience than him!"
"Nonsense!" Louis yelled aggrievedly, "If you had experience, grandpa would have sent you there!"
"Shut up." The elder brother gave him a warning look.
Ilsa looked at the two brothers suspiciously, and said again impatiently: "Give it to him."
The eldest brother wanted to seize the opportunity to show himself in front of the Dragon Clan. After all, it is lucky if you encounter something like mine hunting, and it is normal if you don’t. So he patted his chest and promised: "Trust me, my lord, I am much stronger than him!"
After speaking, he couldn't wait to lift the curtain for Ilsa.
However, the moment he passed by Ilsa, his arm seemed to be pinched by iron tongs, and he was suddenly pulled back, and his body turned backward involuntarily, facing Louis.
The hand he was holding to find the ore was firmly held by Ilsa, and it was slowly brought to Louis.
"Ah... ah!" The elder brother was squeezed by the terrible force, his bones creaked, he turned his head in horror to look at the son of the smiling god who was squinting at him just now, and asked in a trembling voice in disbelief: "You... what are you doing? "
Ilsa ignored him, looked at Louis expressionlessly from the side, and urged indifferently: "Take it."
Louis didn't move, and leaned back against the edge of the table, already stunned by the scene in front of him.
For the first time, he saw that someone could use only one hand to suppress his strong brother until his face was pale and sweaty.
"Louis." Ilsa called out his name for the first time, and said like an order: "Take it."
Louis came back to his senses suddenly, straightened up immediately, and reached for the stone in his elder brother's hand with shaking hands.
However, the elder brother was overly nervous at the moment, his fingers were so tightly pinched that he couldn't even pick them apart.
Ilsa's fingers tightened slightly.
"Ah!" The eldest brother screamed suddenly, his hands lost all strength, and the stone slipped directly into Louis's hands.
Ilsa let go of his older brother's wrist, turned and left.
Louis came back to his senses as if he had just woken up from a dream, a rare expression appeared on his face, and he couldn't help squinting his eyes triumphantly, his face full of unwillingness and pain.
The eldest brother glared at him through gritted teeth, but he didn't dare to snatch the stone from him anymore.
The corners of Louis' mouth couldn't help but turn up, he turned around, quickly wrapped up the biscuits he baked by himself, and rushed out excitedly to chase Ilsa.
Hino asked him if he found any problems, Tai Lun shook his head, and explained with a look of regret: "When we parted, I promised with great ambition that I would build a stable and prosperous new home for you. I didn't expect this promise to be fulfilled by you first. gone."
Hino retorted dissatisfiedly: "Where will there be stability and abundance? I am so busy with government affairs that I am almost dizzy.

Tai Lun finally couldn't hold it back, lowered his head, grinned, raised his head after a while, cleared his throat, and looked at the elf with a smile: "You really haven't changed a bit in terms of cuteness. I barely forgive you, what's the trouble with government affairs? Leave it to me to try."

The elder brother talked about how Louis used to sneak into the chicken shed from the back wall to steal eggs, and he also imitated how he clumsily ran to the river to wash his hands with his palms up like a bear walking when he accidentally got chicken feces on his palms.
He learned it perfectly, the brothers laughed out loud, and Ilsa watched curiously.
Feeling ashamed for a rare time, Louis lowered his head.
At this moment, Claude stood up suddenly, said "ready to leave" with a serious expression, and walked straight out of the tent, as if deliberately interrupting the elder brother's humiliation of Louis.
In an instant, a warm current surged in Louis' cold chest, but Claude quickly left the camp.
Grandpa handed the ancestral prospecting stone to Louis, and solemnly told him: "In the afternoon, you go prospecting with the two adults, and you are not allowed to chatter irrelevant things to the adults."
Louis knew that his grandfather didn't give him a chance to get close to Claude, but that he was the most sensitive person in the family to the ancestral prospecting. His grandfather probably didn't want to get nothing all day, so he decided to let him go.
After explaining, Grandpa also left the tent.
After Mom and Dad went out, only the juniors were left in the camp, so the eldest brother talked about the embarrassing things about Louis in the past even more brazenly, making everyone laugh.
Anyway, Claude was not there, and Louis didn't bother to talk to him. He got up and was about to leave, but the elder brother grabbed his arm roughly, twisted it back, his fingers softened, and the prospecting stone fell into the elder brother's hands.
Louis turned around in horror: "What are you doing? Give me back the stone!"
The elder brother smiled rascally and said, "I can't let you continue to harass the two adults, let me do it myself in the afternoon."
"No! Grandpa gave me the task!" Louis rushed forward to fight angrily, but was pushed against the corner of the table by his elder brother, causing a sore back. He angrily threatened: "I will tell grandpa!"
However, this powerless threat made the eldest brother bend over with a smile.
Louis covered his lower back with one hand, and looked desperately across everyone's faces. He happened to see Ilsa stand up, walk over, raised his chin to his elder brother, and said, "Let's go."
The eldest brother immediately nodded hospitablely, smiled and followed Ilsa, ready to set off to search for the mine.
Ilsa didn't take a few steps, then stopped and looked back, looked at his elder brother suspiciously, and reminded again: "Give it to him, Ilsa is gone."
"What?" The eldest brother quickly realized that Ilsa wanted him to return the stone to Louis and let Louis follow him to find the mine.
The eldest brother hurriedly explained to the Son of God flatteringly: "There is no need for him to go, I will accompany you to find the mine in the afternoon, don't worry! I am older than the fifth brother, and I have more experience than him!"
"Nonsense!" Louis yelled aggrievedly, "If you had experience, grandpa would have sent you there!"
"Shut up." The elder brother gave him a warning look.
Ilsa looked at the two brothers suspiciously, and said again impatiently: "Give it to him."
The eldest brother wanted to seize the opportunity to show himself in front of the Dragon Clan. After all, it is lucky if you encounter something like mine hunting, and it is normal if you don’t. So he patted his chest and promised: "Trust me, my lord, I am much stronger than him!"
After speaking, he couldn't wait to lift the curtain for Ilsa.
However, the moment he passed by Ilsa, his arm seemed to be pinched by iron tongs, and he was suddenly pulled back, and his body turned backward involuntarily, facing Louis.
The hand he was holding to find the ore was firmly held by Ilsa, and it was slowly brought to Louis.
"Ah... ah!" The elder brother was squeezed by the terrible force, his bones creaked, he turned his head in horror to look at the son of the smiling god who was squinting at him just now, and asked in a trembling voice in disbelief: "You... what are you doing? "
Ilsa ignored him, looked at Louis expressionlessly from the side, and urged indifferently: "Take it."
Louis didn't move, and leaned back against the edge of the table, already stunned by the scene in front of him.
For the first time, he saw that someone could use only one hand to suppress his strong brother until his face was pale and sweaty.
"Louis." Ilsa called out his name for the first time, and said like an order: "Take it."
Louis came back to his senses suddenly, straightened up immediately, and reached for the stone in his elder brother's hand with shaking hands.
However, the elder brother was overly nervous at the moment, his fingers were so tightly pinched that he couldn't even pick them apart.
Ilsa's fingers tightened slightly.
"Ah!" The eldest brother screamed suddenly, his hands lost all strength, and the stone slipped directly into Louis's hands.
Ilsa let go of his older brother's wrist, turned and left.
Louis came back to his senses as if he had just woken up from a dream, a rare expression appeared on his face, and he couldn't help squinting his eyes triumphantly, his face full of unwillingness and pain.
The eldest brother glared at him through gritted teeth, but he didn't dare to snatch the stone from him anymore.
The corners of Louis' mouth couldn't help but turn up, he turned around, quickly wrapped up the biscuits he baked by himself, and rushed out excitedly to chase Ilsa.
