Chapter 102: Terrible Brother
Leaving Tulun Port, heading west along a sandy and gravel-paved avenue. Along the way are clear rivers, flat grasslands, small woods, and the farms on the flat ground are planted with olives, while on the hillside are vineyards.
Olive oil and wine are also the pillar industries of the local natives in Tulum Port.
The quality of olive oil around Tulum Port is excellent, and it is one of the best products in Medlands, and the prices have always remained high.
Although the local wines are not as famous as the traditional wine producing areas of the Gaul Republic, nor as good as those famous wineries in the United Kingdom of Nice, the wine production here is extremely large and the quality has always been stable, so the economic benefits are also very good.
It was almost September, and some early-ripening grape varieties had completely matured. Along the way, groups of girls wearing local traditional clothing, flower turbans, and white and red skirts were holding scissors, picking grapes with laughter and joy.
The avenue sometimes passes between two small hills, with dense vineyards on both sides, and the girls' laughter is clearly heard. Occasionally, a few local dogs will emerge from under the grape trellis, waving their tails and chasing the convoy for a short distance.
Qiao opened the car window and looked at the view outside the window very strangely.
Over the years, he has been hanging around in the city of Tulun Port. As he remembers, he only followed Gorkin when he was a child and hunted several times in the forest outside Tulun Port.
When he was older, the open and secret struggles between the Vitu family and other families gradually became fierce, and the sailors and guards on both sides gradually suffered casualties, and the hatred became deeper and deeper, Qiao was confined by Leah, and he could not leave Tulun Port again.
"This is the smell of freedom!" Qiao laughed loudly. He took out a bag of oil paper from the secret compartment under the seat, took out a large blood sausage as thick as a fist, and threw it out with force.
The local dogs following behind the convoy cheered, and more than a dozen local dogs rushed towards the big blood sausage with joy, and immediately formed a ball for the delicious food from the sky.
Billy sat next to Joe, looking through the car window at the group of local dogs snatching food, smiling happily.
Hibiscus Lan and Platycodon Lan sat shoulder to shoulder opposite Qiao. They looked at Qiao's every move calmly. The carriage was a little bumpy, but their bodies remained motionless.
Qiao greedily admired the pastoral scenery outside the car window, and then sat in the car seat and carefully looked at the two new subordinates who were of equal rank to him.
Billy also sorted out his uniform and sat there seriously, looking at the two new colleagues whose ranks were much higher than him with a scrutiny.
Yes, in Billy's heart, this pair of twin brothers, first-class police lieutenant, is just his new colleague, and everyone is equal in status - they all make a living with the wise boss. Billy's qualifications are much better than this pair of rookies.
"You should be... from Donglu?" Qiao looked at the brothers for a while and asked them curiously.
The two brothers' bodies are six feet and one or two inches tall, which is much taller than the natives of Tulum Port. Their skeletons are well-proportioned and have a sense of agile rhythm, not as thick and arrogant as the mainstream ethnic group of Medlands.
Black hair, black eyebrows, black eyes, light yellow, but it is closer to white skin, with soft and smooth face lines. The appearance of the brothers, Qiao thought about it for a while and finally came up with a more suitable word to describe it - heroic.
They sat upright and gave people a feeling that they had inexplicably - they and Joe were all not the same person; they were elites, and Billy was the dross.
"Lan Mujin." The young man sitting on Qiao's left smiled indifferently: "According to Donglu's custom, our surname should be placed in front."
"Lan Kikyo." Qing, who was sitting on Qiao's right, said in a young voice: "Mukiji is the elder brother, and I am the younger brother. But we were born only a quarter of an hour apart, so it doesn't matter."
"Sure enough... Lan Mujin, Lan Kikong... Are you back from the front line of Lulai Grand Plain?" Qiao looked at the two brothers curiously: "I didn't have time to ask yesterday. I'm very curious. You should be doing well in the army, so how could you retire?"
Qiao pointed to the three silver stars on the brother's shoulder stamps.
"Ten years ago, the Imperial Rule Legion wiped out the Lucia Empire Rule Assault Legion, and there was no major battle in the Lucia Plain." Lan Kikyong said softly: "For ten years, the two countries have formed a tacit understanding on the Lucia front line. The conflict between the two sides is mostly dominated by friction between teams below 100 people."
"We are a little unlucky. More than three months ago, we took our brothers to set up an ambush in the wild and wanted to sneak attack a Lucia baggage team. Unexpectedly, the information was wrong, so we killed a Lucia Marquis who was gilded to the front line of Lulai." Lan Kikyong spread his hands helplessly.
"The court envoy of the Lucia Empire accused us of breaking the 'front-line unspoken rules' and putting pressure on the senior leaders of the Lulai Legion." Lan Kikyong said coldly: "The Legion Command ordered accountability, but was pushed back by our commander... We thought it was boring, so we applied to retire."
"So? Well, according to the tradition of the Imperial Army..." Qiao was a little speechless. Retired for such reasons? It's a hell!
The Delun Empire and the Lucia Empire did not sign a formal peace treaty, and both sides were still in a state of war. It was just because the Lucia Empire was beaten ten years ago and they were temporarily unable to launch a counterattack on the front line of the Lucia Plain.
But everyone knows that with the lucidity of the Lucian Empire, they will inevitably retaliate.
Therefore, Lan Mujin and Lan Kikyo killed a marquis on the other side in a small-scale attack, which should be a huge contribution. But the ending was that the brothers were discouraged and retired directly?
Isn't this supposed to be?
"In the past seven or eight years, many generals with surnames with 'Rong', not 'Feng' have joined the Lulai Legion." Lan Kechang saw Qiao's doubts, and he took the initiative to explain: "Especially the General Staff, Logistics Department, and the External Relations Department..."
"Ah, I understand." Joe 'haha' laughed: "Then, you are unlucky enough. The Lulai Plain is one of the largest granaries in the Medland continent. If you don't fight, you have everything; once you fight, you have nothing. Junkers, you definitely don't want to provoke a war..."
"Okay, okay, since I'm back, let's work together. In Tulun Port, as long as everyone can 'work together', everyone will definitely have a good life." Qiao pointed at the two brothers intentionally or unintentionally.
The brothers' eyes were always quiet and deep. They kept looking at Joe quietly, disdaining Billy sitting beside Joe.
As for Qiao's words of winning over such naked-nakedness, the brothers seemed to not understand it, and sat there quietly without saying a word.
Qiao was a little furious when the brothers saw him.
He touched the hidden bag on his chest, which was bulging and stuffed with a thick stack of large notes - a large notes with a denomination of one hundred gold marks just issued by Imperial Bank in the second half of this year.
When leaving home, Hesen gave Jo a large sum of money, and Lea secretly gave Jo a large sum of "pocket money". Some of these bills were stuffed into their pockets and some were placed in a briefcase in the secret compartment under the seat.
After hesitating for a while, Qiao coughed heavily and issued a monophonic note: "Let..."
Qiao suddenly felt the bulging secret bag on his chest fading down, at least one-third of it. His heart twitched, and the corners of his eyes felt sour and almost shed tears.
The crimson light curtain appeared in front of my eyes, and the smooth and gorgeous floral characters indicated the information about the two brothers.

Qiao looked at the light curtain blankly, then turned his head and looked at the scenery outside the window.
The scenery that was originally beautiful like an oil painting has now turned completely gray and white in his eyes, losing all its attraction...
These two terrible guys!
Any of them had the strength to crush Longinus, but two nights ago, five major generals of the Imperial Army joined forces to defeat Longinus!
According to their strength, they had reached the level of general in the Imperial Army.
But they only reached the rank of a small major, and then because they killed the great nobles of the enemy country, they were forced to retire and return to Tulun Port under the pressure of the Legion Command!
Qiao suddenly felt very stressed.
These two guys can knock themselves into pieces in the sky with just one punch, right?
Especially what happened to Lan Likang? Are you a soldier or a killer?
That Lan Mujin, you are proficient in human anatomy and torture, what is this for?
Qiao Dai looked at the scenery outside the window for a while, then turned his head and looked at the Lan brothers. He grabbed their hands with great enthusiasm: "Since you are the elites in the army, you will have to work hard for the big and small affairs of the Lovgang Branch in the future."
"I firmly believe that as long as we work together and move forward side by side, there will be no difficulties and obstacles that will stop us from moving forward."
"We will definitely be able to make achievements in Lovgang... For the empire, let's work together!"
Lan Mujin, Lan Kikyo looked at Qiao quietly. After about a breath, the two of them smiled at the same time: "For the Empire..."
The two of them spoke in a blunt tone and could not hear any emotional fluctuations.
Chapter completed!
