Meeting Zeus and the Olympians on this trip was an unexpected gain. At the same time, they gained a powerful ally organization. It was not a loss.
The next day, Wang Kai brought Daisy around as usual. After visiting Athens, they went to other cities. Zeus did not look for Wang Kai again. Instead, he asked the Olympus Corporation to cooperate with Wang Kai. In Greece, the Olympus Corporation was like the Samsung of South Korea. They had infiltrated all aspects of Greece.
With the help of the local tycoons, Wang Kai and Daisy felt at home during their trip. They could book the best seats at the celebrity restaurants with just a word. As for the luxurious hotels, they could book the best rooms and the best services. Olympus was a good ally. He had to entertain them when he returned to America.
After staying in Greece for a week, Wang Kai and Daisy left Greece. Before they left, they asked the people from the Olympus Corporation to convey their gratitude. Then, they took a plane and flew northwest. Their next stop was Venice, the kingdom on water.
Arriving in Venice felt like arriving on a huge ship floating on the water. Once you stepped out of the door, you would see the water. The way the people here traveled was to choose boats over cars. The car dealers here definitely didn't earn as much as boat dealers. The people here could travel without cars, but it was impossible for them not to take boats.
The entire city was less than eight square kilometers, but it was made up of 118 small islands. 177 canals crisscrossed the city and became the main traffic artery of Venice.
In Venice, the old buildings were well preserved. There were no tall buildings. After all, most of the houses here were built on water. If they were too heavy, they would sink into the water in a few years.
Wang Kai and Daisy directly hired a small boat and rented it for three days. When the boatman saw that Wang Kai was paying double the salary, he was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth. His job was to ferry people, and instead of soliciting customers every day, he preferred to rent a boat. He only needed to serve simple customers, and he would have a lot of rest time. Not to mention that Wang Kai was paying double the salary, which was enough for him to go to the bar after work, have a few drinks, and find a dancer for a night.
In Venice, Daisy didn't have much desire to shop. She only bought some local specialties and enjoyed the scenery. After all, it was rare to have a boat tour.
"Darling, take two pictures for me."
Daisy waved her hand casually in the water. At the same time, she asked Wang Kai to take pictures of her. If she did not take more pictures in this kind of place, she would have wasted her trip to Venice.
Wang Kai captured Daisy and the buildings behind her in the camera, leaving traces of Daisy's trip in Venice. After they went back, he would ask Athena to make a photo album for him to reminisce about in the future.
In addition to the river, there were many tourist buildings on the ground in Venice. St. Mark's Square and St. Mark's Church were the most famous. In Italy, the influence of Catholicism was more serious. After all, the Vatican was in Italy. Compared to Greece, there were more temples, but Italy had more churches.
Wang Kai was not religious, and so was Daisy, because Daisy had never gone to church or prayed. Wang Kai felt that his wedding should be Chinese, so that he could skip the part of the priest. After all, Wang Kai did not like his marriage to be blessed by another person who did not know whether it was an alien or a charlatan.
With the two things of Asgard and Mount Olympus, Wang Kai had no mystery about the gods. The gods were a group of powerful existences. As long as he was strong enough, he could look down on these gods. Now, he had formed an alliance with a group of gods. What else was impossible?
Since he had come to Italy, he had to go to Rome. In Europe, the process of modernization seemed to be very slow. In cities like Rome and Athens, there were very few skyscrapers. Many of the buildings looked very old and were being repaired bit by bit.
Again, there were so many churches here. It was really curious how Jesus, who was executed by the Roman Empire, conquered this land. If the Roman Empire knew that the Catholic Church would become the largest religion in this land in the future, would they still make the decision to let Jesus show his miracles? Maybe they would have executed Jesus more secretly.
Wang Kai felt that the miracles of Jesus were not strange at all in this world. A simple mutant could explain everything. If Wolverine and Wade were in the Middle Ages, they would be like gods. If they showed their immortal miracles, they would definitely win a large number of followers.
Therefore, Wang Kai did not have any superstitions about Jesus. Looking at these churches was just like looking at flowers on horseback. Just like the tourists from Huaxia everywhere, the tourists from Huaxia had spread all over the world, and this world was no exception. Of course, there were also popular groups, which were also world-famous.
"The people of Huaxia are really rich."
Daisy looked at the tourists from Huaxia carrying big and small bags, but she did not mean to belittle them at all. Because her fiancé was Chinese, and her mother was also from Huaxia, she would not be like other Americans who thought that Huaxia was still a country with pigtails.
"Yes, when an ancient empire develops, its growth potential is amazing. You can wait and see. In a few years, Huaxia will be able to surpass the United States."
Although he had not returned to Huaxia, Wang Kai would occasionally read the news about Huaxia. Of course, it was not the news that had been edited by the American media, but the most authentic news. He knew that Huaxia's development speed had surpassed his original world. Even if the United States had so many superheroes and high-tech industries like Stark Industries, Huaxia's catching up speed was not slow. It had already become a strong country on par with the United States, which made Wang Kai proud.
"Really?
That's amazing. When should we go to Huaxia? I heard that there is a lot of delicious food and beautiful scenery there. "
Daisy did not doubt Wang Kai's words at all. She had the idea of traveling to Huaxia.
"When we get married, how about we go to Huaxia for our honeymoon?"
Wang Kai gave a deadline. When the time came, he could be considered to have "returned home in glory." Although things had changed, and he could not find anyone he knew or related to, Huaxia was still his hometown. Bringing a beautiful wife back would be a lot of face.
"Okay, it's a deal."
