Chapter 30: Flick, Then Flick
Zhang Jingxu looked at William II and said with a smile: "Your Highness, Prince, you are right. My merchant ship has undergone special transformation and has good combat power in addition to its ability to sail from the ocean. Therefore, I was able to arrive in England safely with the cargo."
William II nodded and said nothing.
Zhang Jingxu, who already knew the script, didn't care. He picked up the teacup and started to taste tea leisurely.
As a young man, William II's qi cultivation skills must not be as good as Zhang Jingxu, so he could only sigh and continue, "Mr. Zhang, I believe that you have been in England for so long and should have known the current situation in England, right? My father's conquerors William is still not popular with the local people in England, so people have always wanted to overthrow my father's rule; but this is not the point. I believe that my father will not be defeated by these villains, so the question I care about now is who can take over my father's position!"
"Oh, why did Your Highness the Prince say this? Could it be because of the incident of Rega?" Zhang Jingxu said in surprise.
Since all the words were spoken, William II said directly: "That's right, it's the thing about Rega. Of course, Mr. Zhang, you know the version that is worrying after rumors, and what I want to tell you now is the most realistic version - I was reading a book in the study that day, and suddenly I saw my brother passing by the study with a basin of water. I walked out of the study because of curiosity, and I saw my brother pouring the basin of water downstairs. Then I heard my brother's roar, and then my brother ran up and scolded me and my brother for treating him like this, but my brother said that I did it, and he just happened to pass by."
Speaking of this, William II looked at Zhang Jingxu with a serious look, as if he wanted Zhang Jingxu to express his opinion on this.
However, Zhang Jingxu still ignored it and continued to drink his own tea.
This made William II a little annoyed, but Randolph, who was standing next to him, coughed gently, calming down William II.
"Yes, Your Highness, you have a very smart servant who will help you gain an advantage in the battle for the throne."
Zhang Jingxu put down the teacup and whispered: "I don't care what happened to you three brothers in Rega. I believe others don't care about this, because we care about who will become the next king of England, so please tell me what you can give me. If it's right, I don't mind turning my merchant ship into a warship."
"Lords and territory!"
William II said seriously: "My father is not only the king of England, but also the Duke of Normandy, but there is a sea between these two territories, so it is too troublesome to maintain the rule of these two territories, especially after my father's death, some self-righteous bugs will surely emerge on these two territories. So I plan to enfeoff the Duke of Normandy and the corresponding land. As for whom it is enfeoffed, it depends on who will help me the most."
Before Zhang Jingxu could speak, Randolph said first: "Mr. Zhang, you should have left England and returned to the Song Dynasty, but you have never left. Besides carrying various commodities, I heard that there are many furniture on it, so can I think Mr. Zhang, you want to stay in England?"
Zhang Jingxu raised his eyebrows and nodded with a smile and said, "You are right. I am indeed planning to stay in England. Because the current situation in the Song Dynasty is a bit unstable, my family will let me go abroad to spread. If you really want me to be the Duke of Normandy, then I, Zhang, will serve you as a slaughter for Your Highness."
"One word is certain!"
William II couldn't wait to stand up and said, "If I can become the king of England, then Mr. Zhang, you must be the Duke of Normandy!"
After slapping the high fives, Zhang Jingxu ordered his servants to serve the banquet that had been prepared long ago and have fun with the guests and guests of William II. As for Zhang Huanyu and Mo Chen, they also got a bowl of cat rice mixed with pork liver.
After sending William II and Randolph away, Zhang Jingxu walked to Zhang Huanyu and Mo Chen, touched his chin and said, "I haven't eaten a dragon and phoenix fight for a long time, why don't you take this fat cat to the pot? As for this little one, keep it first, and when you want to eat it next time, you will have a little meat."
Hearing Zhang Jingxu say this, Zhang Huanyu and Mo Chen couldn't help but take two steps back and prepare to run away at any time.
"Forget it, I won't tease you two anymore."
Zhang Jingxu stretched and said, "What do you think of this William II? Is he a qualified investment target?"
?!
"Meow Meow?"
Zhang Huanyu and Mo Chen looked at Zhang Jingxu with shock, because Zhang Jingxu's words were obviously said to their two cats, which means that Zhang Jingxu knew that they were not serious cats.
Zhang Jingxu pointed to the chair next to him and continued, "Let's sit and chat. It's not good to have you squat on the ground all the time."
Seeing this, Zhang Huanyu and Mo Chen were not polite and jumped onto the chair.
"I know you have a lot of questions now, so let me tell you slowly."
Zhang Jingxu took a sip of tea and said, "I am a time traveler like you, but I came a while ago, and I am more lucky than you, and I have not become a cat. As for why I can see at a glance that you are also a time traveler, it is because I met the god who sent us here at the beginning of time travel. His mission to me is to lay a solid foundation for you latecomers. Yes, in addition to you, there are many time travelers who have come to this world now!"
"As for why we came here, it is because the world is about to change, so what we time travelers need to do is to control the change within an acceptable range. For example, from the information I have collected during this period, the conqueror William, who should have died more than ten years later, is likely to die suddenly in recent times. At that time, William II will fight with his brothers, so William II may not be able to become the King of England like in history."
"In this way, our mission is to assist William II in becoming the King of England?" Zhang Huanyu couldn't help asking.
Zhang Jingxu smiled and nodded and said, "To be precise, in addition to helping William II become the king of England, we also need to correct the changes that happened elsewhere."
