Chapter 124
Chapter 124
Chi Yan only planned to stay in the hotel until the evening, but he didn't want to be bored in the room all the time, so he went to the restaurant to eat snacks, which were actually baked thinner slices of bread, and there was no wheat bran or stones in it. The business of the hotel was deserted, But Chi Yan thinks this is pretty good, it's better than the business was booming at the beginning, and then it became deserted again.
The gap in the latter is greater, and the mentality is more likely to collapse. What's more, the staff here have no experience as hospitality and waiters, and it takes time to get familiar with the new position and get used to their colleagues in the new position.
Just as Chi Yan was eating a slice of bread, he was about to sit for a while before leaving.
He was in a daze for a while, and when he came back to his senses again, he found that the young man with light blond hair and a male and female face was sitting opposite him.
The young man had a girlish face, not unlike that of a noble maiden.
After looking at it twice, Chi Yan felt that Kleist was indeed the most beautiful in the world.
"My name is Benjamin." Benjamin rarely mustered up the courage to talk to a man.
Chi Yan smiled: "Chi Yan."
Benjamin breathed a sigh of relief: "Did you also travel here?"
Chi Yan shook his head: "I live here, and today I just came to support the newly opened hotel, what about you? A traveler?"
Benjamin: "Just find a place to live."
His eyes were full of confusion.
Chi Yan: "Where are you from?"
Benjamin: "Carlos."
The first time Chi Yan heard about Carlos, it seemed to be a relatively distant city, so Chi Yan regained his energy. He looked at Benjamin leisurely, and asked with a smile, "Carlos? I haven't been there. Any specialty?"
Benjamin didn't expect Chi Yan to ask this question, and he didn't have any precautions. After thinking about it, he said, "Carlos is rich in gems."
Carlos is rich, but it's the Benjamins who are rich.
There were very few civilians there, and they either became servants of the Benjamin family or became slaves. They dug up gems day after day, and the gems they dug out were worth a lot, but they couldn't get a single copper coin.
Benjamin didn't think there was anything to say about this, after all, Carlos was already very famous.
Carlos sends a lot of gems and gold to the royal family and the Holy House every day. They have their own polishing methods, and the gems that come out of Carlos can be sold for a good price.
On Benjamin's finger was a gold ring with a green gem set in its face, as was the necklace around his neck.
This is a rich young master.
Chi Yan was a little moved, but he didn't even know where Carlos was.
Moreover, gems are not as valuable as precious metals in prosperous times, nor are they as useful as grains in troubled times.
Chi Yan lacked interest, and he said to Benjamin, "I hope you can have a good time in Stettin."
After finishing speaking, Chi Yan stood up and took Kadi out of the restaurant.
"Wait!" Banjaming suddenly pushed his chair away and stood up. He took a step forward, trying to stop Chi Yan from leaving.
Chi Yan stopped, turned his head strangely and asked, "Is there something wrong?"
Benjamin was a little annoyed - he didn't know why he stopped Chi Yan, he just felt that he shouldn't let him leave just like that.
"I, I just want to know where you live and if I can visit you in the future."
Chi Yan smiled: "I live in a castle."
Then Chi Yan waved his hand: "Let's go."
Benjamin watched the back of Chi Yan leaving, and stood there in a daze until the maid found him: "Master."
Benjamin glanced at the maid, who was surprised and said, "Why is your face so red?"
Benjamin stretched out his hand and rubbed his face. His face was very hot, as if he was sick. He turned around quickly: "It's nothing, let's eat here, don't ask them to send it to the room."
The maid asked cautiously: "You were with a man just now..."
Benjamin nodded: "He is a man, probably the lord here."
The maid took a breath and covered her mouth with her hand: "Master, this is really..."
Benjamin smiled at her: "He is different from other men."
The maid smiled happily.
Does this mean that the young master can become "normal"?
Since he was a child, the young master has been unwilling to get close to any man, he always stays with girls, but when he grows up to this age, the young master has never had a lover by his side.
The young master is... a very complicated person. He doesn't like men, and in a sense, he doesn't love women either. He just prefers to stay with women, but he doesn't think he is a woman.
When I was in Carlos, many people secretly said that the young master was a monster behind his back.
Or the young master thinks he is a woman, and he doesn't get close to men because he is shy.
There are all kinds of guesses.
Benjamin said to the maid: "Help me prepare a gift, I will go to the castle to visit the lord here tomorrow."
When he faced a man for the first time in his life, he didn't want to run away, he didn't want to find a place to hide.
The source of his aversion to men has been unclear, and he himself does not know what caused it.
When he saw a man, he would feel a sense of disgust in his heart, which was so strong that he couldn't avoid it, and it kept tormenting him.
The maid nodded quickly.
After eating, Chi Yan also chatted with Kleist about the people he met in the hotel: "It should be Lord Carlos's child, dressed like that, and wearing such expensive jewelry, only the Lord's child will do that."
"Of course it is safe in your own territory, so you never have to think about whether you will be robbed, and the children of merchants will not dress up like that."
Kleist suddenly frowned and asked, "You said he was good-looking?"
Chi Yan nodded, still holding the spoon in his mouth: "Like a pretty little girl."
Kleist's complexion became even worse, and he almost broke the chopsticks in his hand.
Chi Yan reacted belatedly: "Ah, I don't like that."
"And you are more beautiful than him!" Chi Yan hurriedly added, "In my heart, you are the best, even if you are not in my heart, you are also the prettiest."
Chi Yan felt that his level of sweet talk had dropped.
So he could only change the subject: "Carlos is rich in gemstones. This is the first time I've heard of such a gemstone-producing place."
Kleist looked up at Chi Yan, and asked blankly, "Do you want to snatch Carlos?"
Chi Yan shook his head: "That's not true."
Gems are not currency. Although they are decorations, their value is far less than that of gold and silver.
After all, gold and silver can be used not only as decorations, but also as currency.
"It would be great if there were unowned gold mines." Chi Yan said with a smile, "And even if you want to be a robber, gold mines and silver mines are more worth grabbing."
Now the gold and silver mines do not actually belong to the royal family or the Holy Court. Although they do belong to them in name, in fact, the local lords who govern the area can put everything into their own pockets except for paying tribute to the higher-ups every year.
Of course, there are also disadvantages, that is, when the royal family cannot stop reaching out, the speed of mining cannot keep up with the speed of paying tribute.
like now.
During the cold war between the royal family and the Holy Court, those lords who owned gold and silver mines would only suffer from headaches day by day.
Seeing that Kleist was still expressionless, Chi Yan knew that he was angry - he shouldn't have praised other men for being good-looking. After dinner, Kleist went back to the room first, obviously angry of.
But he didn't go anywhere else, but went back to the room directly, and said to Chi Yan brightly, "I'm angry, come and coax me."
When Chi Yan returned to the room, he saw Kleist standing in front of the window with his back to the door. The night wind passed by Kleist's ear, blowing Kleist's long black hair.
Kleist hasn't changed much in recent years, the passage of time has left no mark on him.
Chi Yan quietly walked behind Kleist. Although he knew that Kleist would definitely be able to detect his movements, he still had to act.
This can barely be regarded as the "interest" between the two of them.
Chi Yan walked behind Kleist and hugged Kleist's waist. He had to step on his feet to put his chin on Kleist's shoulder, and he asked softly in Kleist's ear : "Really angry?"
Kleist didn't speak.
Chi Yan: "...I just praised his appearance."
Chi Yan thought about it again—it seemed that he had never praised anyone other than Kleist for being good-looking.
Even Amanda.
After all, he wouldn't be so bored as to tell Kleist how beautiful the female elf Ansair liked was.
But he just couldn't find any other obvious characteristics to describe in Benjamin. Although good-looking people seem to be androgynous, there are still a small number of people who are exactly the same as the opposite sex.
Benjamin is like a girl who steals men's clothes.
He has a perfectly girly face, but a man's figure.
It will give people a sense of confusion and disobedience.
His beauty can only be used to describe the face, not the person.
Chi Yan: "He should come to visit me, you'll understand when you see him."
Kleist's eyes were a little cold: "Why is he visiting you?"
Chi Yan hugged Kleist very tightly: "A young master from a noble family, when he arrives in a new place, the first thing he thinks of is definitely to visit the local lord."
"Anyway, you'll know when we meet." Chi Yan took Kleist's hand, "Are you still angry?"
Kleist turned his head: "Why am I angry?"
Chi Yan kissed Kleist's ear.
Kleist's ear tips moved, but he still pursed his lips with a displeased look on his face.
Chi Yan: "I was going to the tavern tonight, but it seems I can't."
Kleist said softly: "Why can't you go? Is someone stopping you?"
Chi Yan said ambiguously in Kleist's ear, "My lover needs me tonight."
Kleist's lips pursed into a straight line: "What do you need?"
Chi Yan: "I need to comfort him."
When Kleist turned his head, Chi Yan had already taken off his clothes, and there were still red marks on his body that hadn't faded.
Kleist's Adam's Apple rolled up and down.
It seemed that he would never be able to refuse Chi Yan's temptation.
Just like a thirsty person can never refuse water.
