Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece - Chapter 726

[Chapter 71]

Of course Kristoya knew very well, so she pretended to be aggrieved and said: “I know that you have been busy with the important affairs of the kingdom for a day, and you are already very tired. But there is no way, because as the head of the family, the major events in the family still need you. Let

‘s make a decision.”

“What’s going on at home?…” Davos was a little dazed, and Cristoia usually handled everything at home in an orderly manner, and he seldom asked.

“Your son Adoris, he is 21 years old, someone has come to propose a marriage.” Cristoia said sternly.

“Proposing marriage?! Adoris is still very young!” Davos disagreed, but when he saw Cristoia’s serious face, he suddenly realized something and asked, “Who proposed marriage?”

“Alcibi Darth proposed a marriage for his daughter, he originally told Agnes, but Agnes came to ask for my opinion…” Kristoya narrated in a flat tone.

But Davos was completely drowsy at the moment, and he thought about it seriously, and then he said: “Agnes still respects your sister.”

“Of course I know, I have always treated Agnes. Be your own sister! We sisters are nothing, but I’m afraid some outsiders think too much…” Kristoya reminded.

Davos sighed lightly and felt a bit of a headache. He would rather face thousands of troops than deal with these short-lived trivial matters among parents, but he knew that if he didn’t handle it well, it might affect the harmony of the family. He thought about it, Said: “I’m afraid it’s not a good idea to directly reject Alcibiades. After all, this time, Lijim was fully incorporated into the kingdom. Alcibiades played an important role, and he also organized Lijim merchants to go to the Eokexing Sea. The kingdom buys food, and is a relative of our family… Well, tell Adoris to see if he is willing, after all, he is only my adopted son, and even his name has been changed, he does not agree, I can’t force him to marry, Right! At least letting them meet is a response to the request of Alcibiades, but I wonder if Alcibiades can adapt to the marriage customs of our Kingdom of Dionia? (The traditional marriage custom in Greece is The man is not allowed to see the woman before marriage, but Dionia is much more open. Not only does it have blind dates, but most of the children of citizens of the same town study in the same school since childhood. Although men and women are divided into classes, but They meet every day, and there are many couples who get married because of this.)”

Having said that, Davos asked again: “Daughter of Alcibiades, have you seen it?”

“Agnes brought me to meet you.

On the other hand, she is a beautiful girl, and she seems to have received a traditional aristocratic education, so she is very polite!” Cristoia emphasized.

“…With Adoris’ temperament, I’m afraid he doesn’t like traditional Greek girls very much.” Davos said thoughtfully.

“But what if he likes it?” Cristoia was still a little worried,

after all, there was Agnes Pearl in front of her, and that girl didn’t look bad.

Davos was stunned for a moment and said hesitantly, “If that’s the case, there’s nothing you can do. You can’t count what you’ve said.”

“It’s better to arrange a few more blind dates for Adoris. But Alcibiades is not the only one, like Mrs. Miron, Mrs. Stromboli, Mrs. Burkes… all mentioned at the meeting, if Adoris still chooses Alcibiades’ Daughter, that shows that this is indeed the marriage given by Hera, and we should also bless it.” Cristoia suggested.

Davos knew that the “party” that Cristoya was referring to was a small banquet she organized in the mansion a few years ago among her friends. The original participants were only Andrea, Asuna, and occasionally Agnes became bigger and bigger in the future. At most, there were nearly 50 participants, most of them were the wives of the elders, and they were dubbed the “Lady Senate” by the good Turui people.

Since it does not prevent Davers from governing, on the contrary, it can provide an additional channel to understand the thoughts and trends of the elders, and even sometimes Cristoia can help them resolve family disputes, so Davers did not stop it, Instead, out of suspicion, a banquet hall was built beside the mansion for their gatherings, and guards were dispatched to guard them, and men were not allowed to enter.

At this time, Davos said quite complacently: “Even if Adoris is an adopted son, it is my adopted son of Davos. It is impossible to be unpopular. There are so many good girls for him to choose from, I believe he will find them. A good wife! I think when it’s Cloto’s turn, the door of my house will be smashed by the matchmaker!”

“Are you going to let Cloto also have a blind date?” Cristoia looked at him half-smiling .

“This is just a joke.” Davos said hurriedly and sternly: “Kloto is different from Adoris, his marriage cannot be decided by himself, but must be conducive to the rule of our family and the stability of the kingdom!”

Cristoia was not angry that Davos did not give Clotokatax freedom of marriage, but smiled brightly, she knew that Davos said this meant that he always regarded his own eldest son as his own. heir to the throne.

Cristoia stretched out her snow-white slender hands and took the initiative to massage Davos’s body.

After Davos was woken up, he couldn’t sleep at this time. He squinted, enjoying the gentle service of his wife, thinking about things in his heart, and murmured: “It’s time to find a wife for Adoris, Let him settle down sooner, so that he won’t be clamoring to go to the Ladium area every day to fight…”

“Aren’t you going to send him to the battlefield again?” Cristoia asked casually.

“That’s impossible! When the Second Legion needs to be dispatched to fight, of course he has to follow, otherwise what will other soldiers think!” Davos said without hesitation.

“Where’s Cloto? He’s not yet nineteen, and he’s still a reserve soldier.” Cristoia asked again casually.

“Of course he’s going to follow–” Davos had just finished saying this, and the hands that were kneading on him immediately stopped moving.

He turned his head to look at Cristoia, who was looking worried and was about to speak, and said sternly: “It’s just by my side, he’s an adult, and it’s time to understand what a real war looks like! In this era It’s hard to be a good king if you don’t understand the military or war… Hey, don’t stop, my back on the left side is a little sore, give me a good massage.”

Cristoia explained Going to worry, he massaged her husband again with a smile, and asked, “Are you going to fight again this time?”

“…I haven’t decided yet, it depends on the development of the war…” Closing his eyes, he said faintly, immersed in thought again.

After all these years, Cristoia had grown accustomed to her husband’s victories one after another, so she was less worried about his safety.

“Your Majesty, are you still awake?” Ya asked softly.

“Huh?” Davos responded.

“I want to open up a new industry, what would you do better for me to refer to?”

Davers was stunned, turned his head to look at Cristoia, who was leaning over to massage on his back, and asked suspiciously : “What’s wrong?”

“Now the business in the kingdom is more and more prosperous, and there are more and more merchants. Whether it is restaurants, school supplies for students, or ball games, there are many new shops and restaurants with us. Competition, although according to what you said, the commercial products we have built… the brand has been well known and loved by the people of the kingdom, but the income has been slowly declining month by month in the past two years… Therefore, a new industry is needed to grow rapidly Our profits!” Cristoia complained to Davos.

“Isn’t there a bank where you monopolize the deposit and loan of the entire kingdom!” Davers said disapprovingly.

“It’s not enough to have a bank. We have so many children, we have to prepare more for them in the future!” Kristoia said firmly.

In fact, this was her improvised idea, and she was stimulated by what Davos said before, “Agnes’ brother Alcibiadas organized Lijim merchants to buy food”, she needed to be richer, in the The kingdom’s business needs to be more appealing.

Cristoia’s words about the future of the children moved Davos. At the same time, this drought also made him feel financially embarrassed. Opening up new sources of money for Cristoia can naturally lead to a new industry in the kingdom. , he searched hard in his mind for some previous life ideas suitable for the kingdom’s trade, but his eyes were involuntarily attracted by the two white balls of Cristoia’s loose nightgown leaning towards him. The movement of the delicate body showed a water drop-like sway, and a flash of light flashed in his mind, and he blurted out: “Cristoia, you can make women’s underwear!”

“Underwear?… “…” Cristoia chanted the new words that were combined by Davos, and said with a little disappointment: “You mean the inner lining? We make our own clothes at home, and no one will come. Go to the

market and buy it.”

“No! I’m not referring to the lining!” Davos shook his head and said, “Remember that you all wear Aphrodite’s chest strap when you get married?”

“I didn’t when I married you. I’ve worn it.” Cristoia still complained at this time.

Davos was a bit dumbfounded and said, “This underwear is similar to a chest strap, but it is more complicated to make than a chest strap, it is more comfortable to wear, and it can better set off the beauty of a woman’s figure and increase the temptation for men…”

Kerry Stoya immediately became interested, and hurriedly asked, “What does this underwear look like?”

“It is—” Davers wanted to describe but didn’t know how to start, so he simply let Cristoia lie down , took off her light pajamas for her.
