Deposed Crown Prince: After three years of service on the frontier, the entire court knelt and begge

The next few days were peaceful.

After a night of rest and adjustment, Xiao Ce was full of energy again.

The further they entered the western seas, the more differences Xiao Ce noticed.

There were almost no trading ships in the entire East Asian sea area.

Even if there were, there would only be a handful, while cargo ships here come and go in an endless stream.

Building such a sophisticated network as it is today requires a tremendous amount of human and material resources.

However, Xiao Ce was comforted by the fact that, as time went on, their East Asia would also get better and better.

Five days later, Xiao Ce arrived at a port in the British Empire.

Upon arriving at the port of the British Empire, Xiao Ce felt a sense of disconnect.

Because the buildings here are all high-rises, at least the buildings near the port are almost all high-rises.

The ships in the port were docked in an orderly manner, with several huge cruise ships moored at the shore.

Then, one by one, people dressed in suits and fine clothes gracefully walked off the ship carrying a leather suitcase.

The harbor was also bustling with people.

Unlike the Roman Empire, although there were also a large population, this place was much more orderly.

On one side of the port, there appears to be a train station.

The Westerners who disembarked from the ship either boarded horse-drawn carriages, rickshaws, or went directly to the train station.

They immediately set off in all directions.

"Your Highness...this...this...this...is this the future world you were talking about?"

Big Thunder's words interrupted the man who was looking at the British Empire through binoculars.

At this moment, the shock to Da Lei and Ye Mao must have been even greater.

Xiao Ce's biggest feeling was actually a sense of separation.

Although they had been listening to Xiao Ce talk, they had never seen the so-called jungle of reinforced concrete.

Xiao Ce slowly lowered the binoculars in his hand: "This doesn't count... The future world is far beyond what this place can compare to."

"Moreover, with what we have here now, our Xiao Kingdom can establish it throughout East Asia."

"It's just a matter of time..."

As Xiao Ce said this, a hint of arrogance appeared on his face.

Specifically, it should be pride...

What he said was simply the truth.

Their success is simply due to their early lead.

Boudica, having arranged everything, then walked over.

Seeing Boudica's expression, Xiao Ce asked her, "Was your country still like this before you left?"

Boudica gave an awkward smile, then said to Xiao Ce, "Your Highness, it's completely different... I feel a sense of unfamiliarity..."

"I've only been away from here for a little over ten years, but I didn't expect this place to develop so quickly!"

Xiao Ce smiled slightly at Boudica: "This is the power of capital. The British Empire can be said to have gathered the wealthiest people from the four Western countries here."

"And it shouldn't be like this throughout Britain. Because, looking at the buildings in those harbors, they all have the coats of arms of various countries on them..."

Boudica nodded: "That's right, Your Highness... The city we've arrived at is called Lingas. Although it's a city in Britain, it's actually more of a city of integration. It's the only city under the jurisdiction of the Illuminati."

After hearing Boudica's explanation, Xiao Ce's expression finally seemed reasonable.

During their casual conversation, Xiao Ce asked Boudica, "By the way, why isn't our ship docking?"

Boudica said to Xiao Ce, "Because we came from the Roman Empire and there are slaves on board, even though the paperwork is complete, we still need a specialist to check everyone's identity and give you a temporary identity."

"Of course, people like us with Western features don't need it at all..."

Boudica, seemingly preparing Xiao Ce for the worst, said, "Your Highness, you'll still have to put up with this later... you'll have to undergo identity verification as a slave..."

Seeing Boudica's apologetic expression, Xiao Ce smiled and said, "You don't need to feel sorry about this... It was my choice, it's nothing at all..."

Boudica nodded: "That's fine then. We need to wait a bit until the commissioners confirm before we can enter the port."

Just as they were chatting, they saw a small boat coming.

Some of the people on the small boat were white and wearing uniforms.

Boudica went to greet him.

"Welcome, gentlemen. Thank you for your help this time."

The white man at the head of the group was clearly attracted by Boudica's beauty and glanced at her.

"Beautiful lady, it's our duty. We don't yet know your name, ma'am." The white man who spoke first, though behaving like a gentleman, betrayed him with his eyes.

"Sir, my name is Boudica." Boudica naturally sensed this, but being a newcomer, he managed to suppress his displeasure.

“Oh? Boudica? What’s your last name?” the white captain asked.

Boudica smiled. "I'm an orphan, so I don't have a surname..."

The white captain, still feigning a gentlemanly demeanor, said, "I'm so sorry..."

...

After exchanging a few pleasantries, the white captain introduced himself, saying that his name was Lewandowski.

Boudica did a good job of maintaining appearances.

They gave him another small box of gold bars, which made Lewandowski's eyes light up.

“Ms. Boudica, this…”

Boudica said to Lewandowski, "Mr. Lewandowski, as you know, I come from the Roman Empire, and I'm quite unfamiliar with this place... You are the first friend I've made... Let's be friends."

"Furthermore, I've brought quite a few slaves with me. However, although they are slaves, they are my most loyal and trusted companions from all my years fighting in the Roman Empire... So, I'm troubling you all. Consider this a small token of my appreciation; I might need your help again in the future..."

Actually, it's convenient for them to receive money; it's just their custom.

However, I've never seen anyone spend so much money at once before...

Lewandowski was somewhat taken aback: "Ms. Boudica, this is far too much... You don't have any contraband here, do you?"

Boudica, seeing Lewandowski's expression, burst out laughing: "Lord Lewandowski, you're really joking... Everything here is compliant; everyone has the necessary paperwork and identification. To avoid any misunderstanding, please check first..."

As he spoke, Boudika glanced at a maidservant beside him, who was from India.

It was something Boudika had with him when he was in India.

The maid then took out a small bag and gave each person a small gold ingot.

"This is a reward for your hard work! Everyone has worked hard."

The people on Xiao Jinding's side didn't refuse; instead, they smiled and accepted it.

Lewandowski took to heart what Boudica had just said to him.

"Gentlemen, be polite to those slaves, and handle items gently when searching them... Be careful!"

The staff members were very polite after accepting the small gold ingots.

Moreover, Lewandowski did not relax his guard because of the gold bars in the small wooden box.

Instead, he implied that his subordinates were conducting a more thorough investigation.

However, besides some gold and silver treasures, all they carried were these slaves.

The identities of these slaves were all legitimate, with all necessary witnesses present.

So the check went very smoothly, and it was all done in less than half an hour.

Meanwhile, Boudica was drinking tea with Lewandowski.

As each person came over and reported to Lewandowski, and after everything was settled, they left.

Boudica then placed the small box filled with gold bars in front of Lewandowski.

After placing it in front of him, Boudica said to Lewandowski, "Mr. Lewandowski, you can accept it now, right? Is it just to make friends... or do you not want to be my friend?"

To be honest, Lewandowski initially had some inappropriate thoughts about Boudica.

However, during a casual conversation with Boudica, Boudica mentioned his successful business dealings in the Roman Empire.

Looking at the things she carried with her, it was clear that Boudica was no ordinary woman.

Although Lewandowski is a womanizer, he values ​​his life even more.

Just then, Lewandowski said to Boudica, "Alright...Ms. Boudica, then I won't stand on ceremony...but don't worry, I won't take this box of gold bars for nothing..."

After hearing Lewandowski's words, Boudica smiled and said, "Hey... Mr. Lewandowski, you're being too polite... These are really nothing!"

Xiao Ce stood behind Boudica the entire time, without ever uttering a single word...

I thought there would be some melodramatic plot twists, like someone looking down on others.

As it turned out, everything went very smoothly.

On second thought, it makes sense. In this city of Lingas, especially at this port, everyone who comes here is a powerful and influential figure from various countries.

The British Empire had many ports.

The people who can come to this port are all extraordinary, so they must have seen a lot of things.

Those fools would probably have been killed and thrown into the sea to feed the fish by the real powerful and wealthy long ago.

This is survival of the fittest.

A short while later, they had finished the examination.

After the examination was completed, Lewandowski's next move surprised both Xiao Ce and Boudica.

Because Lewandowski divided the entire box of gold bars that Boudica had given him equally among the people who came to inspect.

And he repeatedly emphasized that it was Boudica who gave it to him.

These individuals then expressed their gratitude to Boudica with utmost respect.

This alone made Xiao Ce think that Lewandowski was smart and knew that being greedy for money was nothing special.

But truly knowing how to use money wisely is what constitutes wisdom.

After they finished their inspection, they sailed into the harbor, led by Lewandowski's ship.

Next, new identity documents will be made.

Those who paid money still received a different attitude.

Lewandowski still had work to do, but he still sent one of his men to help with the follow-up operations.

Their group totaled nearly two hundred people, and half of them had East Asian features, which are rare in this area.

With the help of that subordinate, it was indeed fast and much less troublesome.

Boudica had intended to give some money to Lewandowski's henchman.

Immediately afterward, Lewandowski's subordinate told Boudica that Lewandowski had already given the orders.

This is what he should do as a friend.

Even with help, they were busy until dark before they finally finished all the formalities at the port.

Brian Carter was afraid of being targeted by Boudica, so he didn't have anyone to meet him in the British Empire.

With so many people, finding accommodation is indeed a problem.

At first, they wanted to find a hotel, but those hotels only accepted blonde, blue-eyed Westerners like Boudica.

However, they wouldn't accept someone with an East Asian face like Xiao Ce.

This shadow guard meant that he and his men would stay here for the night.

Xiao Ce and Boudica went to sleep for the night and decided to make a decision the next day.

Just as they were discussing it, they ran into Lewandowski, who was getting off work.

When Lewandowski saw their large crowd, he called out to Boudica.

"Ms. Boudica, don't you have a place to live yet?"

Boudica laughed and said, "It's completely different here from the Roman Empire... I was thinking of booking a whole hotel, but they seem to be discriminating against us..."

Levan smiled and said, “That’s right, Ms. Boudica. Other countries in Britain are better, but this is Lingas City, the richest city in the entire British Empire. Every inn is frequented by dignitaries from various countries. So the discrimination against slaves is much deeper here.”

"If you want to settle these people, you can either go back to your ship to rest, or, if you don't mind, you can stay at my farm for the night!"

Lewandowski then asked, "Don't you have a foothold in the British Empire yet?"

Boudica laughed and said, "Yes, there is, but I've been away from here in Aosta State for too long. Obviously, this Lingas City is better now. So, I'm thinking of staying here."

This was the result of a discussion between Xiao Ce and Boudica; they genuinely didn't know the situation here beforehand.

Actually, Brian Carter and his team were also behind on the information; they learned it from Lewandowski.

The city of Lingas is particularly well-established here.

Therefore, at the suggestion of the Illuminati, the cities surrounding Lingas were included and became the State of Lingas.

Britain is now composed of seven states. Economically, Lingas is the leading state, followed by Aosta, Desol, Tannock, Sellavis, Avondale, and Caskaty. Previously, they had chosen Aosta as the economically leading state.
