- Venice at this time was not very famous in the Northern Song Dynasty, but it was very famous in the northeastern part of Europe.
Although Venice is still part of the Eastern Roman Empire on the surface, it has faint signs of self-reliance, and it is also the most fertile region in Europe at this time.
Wealthier than Constantinople.
It is because he is too rich that he has the idea of ??'independence'.
When Lu Sen came to Venice, he received a lot of attention.
?Only Europeans have always gone east to do business and transport silk. This is the true meaning of Venice, welcoming the first oriental guest.
It even looks like a nobleman's guest.
Lu Sen and Alizee checked into the most luxurious mead hotel in the city. Because they were new arrivals, Lu Sen was not in a hurry to show his supernatural powers.
Sitting on the so-called softest velvet mattress, Lu Sen said with a smile: "Since I came here, I have seen that I seem to be in a trance."
Alizee was lying on the window looking out. Hearing the words, she turned around and said, "I lived here for a year when I was ten years old. It was also the opportunity for me to become an Assassin."
"A shocking past?" Lu Sen asked.
Alizee shook her head: "Let's not talk about that, if I hadn't become an Assassin, I wouldn't have met my husband. Now there are many people waiting outside the hotel, sir, what are you going to do?"
"It's impossible to find the hibiscus tree just by the two of us." Lu Sen said with a smile, "So I want to ask someone for help."
Alizee came over, sat next to Lu Sen, and asked, "Your Majesty already has a plan?"
"Venice is currently the most prosperous place in the entire Roman region, and it is also the place with the most intelligence resources." Lu Sen propped his cheeks and said: "Besides, as far as I know, Venice's army is a 'private army', as long as they have enough money, let them help out. , is a very simple matter.¡±
Alizee laughed when she heard this: "That's right, as a gentleman, it's really not suitable for me to do it myself. Then, do you need me to notify the Governor of Venice?"
"No, he will come to me by himself." Lu Sen said firmly.
Indeed, as Lu Sen said, the Governor of Venice, Domenico, is holding a banquet at home.
Wearing low-cut dresses, ladies who haven't showered for two or three months, and whose bodies smell like spices and sweat, gather together in twos and threes to chat.
A noble lady showed a small piece of silk handkerchief in her hand: "This is the silk my husband collected from the merchants in the east. Look, this transparent color, this smooth surface, and this charming fragrance , is worthy of being a treasure from 'Qin'."
At this time, there was a very strange phenomenon. Because of the inconvenience of communication and even the lag of information, the Northern Song Dynasty at this time called Rome on the European side "Great Qin", and then on the European side, the East was also called "Qin".
"I heard that Qin people wear clothes made entirely of silk." A woman said with emotion: "A small piece of silk has wiped out our savings for several years. Qin who used it to make clothes People, I can't imagine how rich they are."
"In addition to silk, there are also porcelains." A woman pointed to Domenico on the throne: "The Governor has a set of smooth blue-printed porcelains in his hands. It is said that they are special items for the nobles of the Qin Dynasty."
Immediately there were women who answered the conversation: "Yes, I have seen it too. It is really a smooth bowl, very beautiful and full of artistic atmosphere. It is completely different from our current pottery. The pottery is too ugly."
And the central figure of the women's discussion, Governor Domenico was pinching a small porcelain tea with his fingers, which contained a light yellow liquid and a few tea stalks floating around.
He could faintly hear the discussions around him, and he was certainly happy with the current flattery.
This is also the purpose of his banquet. He managed to get tea from the East from a big businessman, and spent nearly one-fifth of his military expenditure this year, just such a small bag.
How about not showing off.
He sniffed, and felt that the tea in the cup exuded a charming fragrance, covering up the strange smell of spices in the whole banquet.
At this time, a servant boy came in. He leaned over and said something in the Governor's ear, and then the Governor was taken aback: "Really? Are there really guests from the East? Are they still staying in the mead hotel?"
The servant boy nodded repeatedly.
The mead hotel is the property under the governor's name.
He thought for a while, and said: "Order the kitchen to extend the banquet time, let the guests stay here, and then prepare the carriage for me, and I will go there myself."
After finishing speaking, he went back upstairs, changed into his military uniform, and waited to go out.?? bar. "
Alizee turned to look at Domenico: "Your Excellency, my master has agreed to your invitation, but please do the best hospitality."
"Of course there is no problem." Domenico looked at Lu Sen's black hair and black eyes, and was quite happy in his heart.
Being able to entertain a real nobleman from the East at one's own banquet, even if it costs more, it is a great honor to spread the word It should be called an honor here.
Afterwards, Lu Sen followed Domenico out the door, and rode in a carriage with him to the Governor's Mansion.
It was almost evening at this time, but none of the people at the banquet left, and as the evening approached, the nobles began to get a little bit more involved.
As soon as Domenico led Lu Sen into the banquet hall, he found many men and women cuddling together!
There are also some women sitting on men's laps, with their collars opened wide, and smiling happily.
Seeing the situation in front of her, Alizee's expression changed on the spot.
She has been in Song Dynasty for several years, how can she not know the habits of Song people.
Even in brothels, there are no such exaggerated pictures, let alone formal occasions.
Her complexion gradually turned ugly.
At this time, Domenico noticed the change in Alizee, and felt something was wrong in his heart, but he didn't know how to explain it for a while.
This was originally the banquet tradition of their Roman Empire.
At this time, Alizee also looked at Lu Sen, she was afraid that her husband would become angry.
Banxian really wants to fight, absolutely no one can live in this place.
But in fact, Lu Sen is very calm.
His gaze swept across the banquet hall without any fluctuation.
It has long been familiar.
As I said before, Lu Sen has never seen anything in the information age.
When he was still in high school, he had seen the famous 'Bald Hawks'.
That series of movies used exaggerated techniques to show the "chaos" in the Bald Eagle Country's colleges and universities.
Many of the scenes are scenes of the protagonist and others starting school, and the surrounding male and female students are having fun on the campus on the spot, not to mention the live banquet later.
So Lu Sen didn't think there was anything strange about it.
These European and American people are mainly like this. For two or three thousand years, the essence has not changed in any way.
Seeing Lu Sen's normal expression, Alizee immediately felt relieved.
And Domenico was relieved when he saw that Alizee's expression was much better. He really didn't want the other party to have a bad impression of his Venice, a rare oriental.
"Mr. Lu, this way please." Domenico led the way himself.
Just now in the carriage, the two also exchanged their names.
Lu Sen sat down as promised, and the waiter immediately brought a wooden plate and two porcelain bowls.
This is already the best tableware in the Governor's Mansion.
At this time, many banquet guests have temporarily 'quiet' from their excitement.
They also quietly surrounded, many of them not even wearing clothes.
For them, this is a very normal behavior.
"Governor Domenico, is this your guest or your 'slave'?" A man asked, licking his lips.
"Dear guest."
"That's such a pity." The man shook his head helplessly.
Then someone said: "This kind of pure black-haired and black-eyed oriental, who is completely dressed in silk, can buy a third of Venice with just clothes, how could he be a slave? Besides, there really is such a class His slaves should also be sent to the palace instead of appearing here."
The man who was naked just now was full of embarrassment.
Many women also gathered around. These women covered their bodies with scarves at will, and Lu Lu didn't care at all. They just looked at Lu Sen, wondering if they could try something new.
As they approached, a strange smell permeated the air.
Lu Sen has a compartment formed by 'clothing illusion', so he can't smell it.
But Alizee couldn't bear it, she even covered her nose.
Domenico clapped his hands and said: "Let me introduce to you, this distinguished guest is a top nobleman, top scholar, and powerful magician from the Eastern Great Qin Kingdom, Mr. Lu!"
At this time, there were fewer people messing around in the banquet. After all, something new appeared, and they couldn't help but hastily ended it and came to watch.
They can do that kind of thing anytime, but this is the first time I've seen a real Oriental.
After listening to Domenico's introduction, these nobles all felt a little incredible.
It is not surprising that the combined titles of nobles and scholars!
But what is a magician? Is it really a legendary magician who possesses magical power? </div>.
