In the courtyard of the Baruch family's mansion, Hogg was lying on a chair flipping through an extremely thick book, reading carefully.
"Lord Hogg, dinner is ready."
A maid walked over and said respectfully.
Since the butler Ciri took little Wharton to the O'Brien Empire, there has not been a single servant in the entire Baruch family, and Hogg is at least the patriarch of the dragon-blooded warrior family, so he can't do the work of the next person by himself.
So Hogg gritted his teeth and hired a maid.
"Oh."
Hogg closed the book in his hand, glanced at the maid next to him, and sighed in his heart, "Fortunately, those nobles know that my son is now a genius magician at the Ernst Academy, and are willing to lend me gold coins, otherwise life will be even more difficult." ” "According to the current tax rate of Osan Town, it can barely cover the taxes of the kingdom and the salaries of the guards."
Hogg felt aggrieved when he thought about it, and when the family passed down to his generation, most of what he could sell was sold out. fortunately He Hogg had two sons, two amazing sons.
"Lin Lei is now a fifth-level magician, and his graduation is about to be, so when the time comes, the family can hand it over to him, and I can also do what I have always wanted to do."
Hogg got up and walked towards the living room, suddenly "Lord Hogg, Lord Hogg."
Hillman's voice rang out from afar.
Hogg looked suspiciously towards the door of the mansion, and only then Hillman stepped in, and beside Hillman was a burly young man.
Seeing the smile on the face of the young man Hogg, he immediately bloomed, and greeted him with a big smile: "Lin Lei, you are back, haha, it's really good, this is really a big surprise." ” "Agatha, please prepare a sumptuous dinner."
Hogg patted Lin Lei on the shoulder affectionately, "Good boy, you're catching up with me, by the way, you don't usually wait for the end of the year to come back, how about this time?"
Lin Lei smiled mysteriously: "Father, I'll tell you when I'm done with dinner." ” "So mysterious," Hogg deliberately frowned.
Hillman next to him smiled and said, "Lord Hogg, Lin Lei told me that he has prepared a mysterious gift for you."
I asked him, and he didn't say anything. ” "Uncle Hillman."
Lin Lei frowned and looked at Hillman.
"Okay, I don't say, I don't say."
Hillman laughed.
As night fell, the land was dark, and several candles burned in the living room of the Baruch family, illuminating the entire living room.
After dinner, the servant Agatha cleaned up the table, and only Lin Lei and Hogg were left in the hall before Lin Lei put his package in front of his father.
"This is," Hogg looked at Ray in confusion.
"Wait a minute, open it."
Lin Lei got up and closed the door of the living room, and Hogg couldn't help laughing: "It's so mysterious to close the door." ” Lin Lei sat down confidently: "Father, you open this package." ” "I'd like to see what you've got in here."
Hogg opened the package curiously, but he didn't expect that there was a big bag in the package, the mouth of the big bag was tight, and a large number of magic crystal cores stuffed the bag bulging.
Hogg touched the big bag and wondered: "Such a big bag, it doesn't look like a gold coin, is it a gravel" Hogg was a little puzzled, and as he spoke, Hogg opened the bag.
As soon as the bag is opened The flowers are green, and the colorful variety of magic crystal nuclei exude brilliant colored light, Hogg's eyes can't help but be studied, this is full of a big bag of various magic crystal nuclei, Hogg has never seen it in his life.
"This is the Magic Crystal Nucleus" Hogg's eyes widened, he looked at Lin Lei in shock, and then swallowed his saliva with difficulty, Hogg had also seen the Demon Crystal Nucleus before, but he had never seen so many Demon Crystal Nuclei.
There are so many magic crystal nuclei, it is too visually stunning.
Lin Lei nodded and said, "Yes, almost all of this bag is full of magic crystal nuclei, as long as a small number of a dozen are magic crystal stones."
According to the value of the magic crystal nuclei recorded in the books, the value of these magic crystal cores should be more than 70,000 gold coins. ” "More than 70,000 gold coins," Hogg felt his heart twitch violently.
Hogg has been troubled by money all these years, and now if Hogg is asked to take out five hundred gold coins, Hogg will probably have to go out to borrow money.
The embarrassment can be imagined.
More than 70,000 gold coins What concept is more than 70,000 gold coins, which can definitely feed the entire Baruch family for more than a hundred years.
"Of course, more than 70,000 gold coins are just a figure calculated according to the price recorded in the book, and the price recorded in the book is still in the past, and the current price should be slightly higher.
It is estimated that it can be sold for 80,000 gold coins.
Lin Lei replied honestly.
Hogg looked at the pile of magic crystal nuclei in front of him, and felt as if he was in a dream, and the whole person had a fluttering feeling.
"Whew, whew" Hogg took several deep breaths before he managed to calm down.
"Lin Lei, where did you get these magic crystal nuclei" Hogg suddenly reacted, staring at Lin Lei, "You went to the Demon Beast Mountain Range" Lin Lei nodded: "Yes, father, these magic crystal nuclei are all obtained from the Demon Beast Mountain Range. ” "You, you" Hogg was a little annoyed, "The Demon Beast Mountain Range is the most murderous place in the entire continent, what a big deal to enter it, why don't you enter it without consulting me, do you know how dangerous it is?"
As soon as the words came out, Hogg laughed to himself.
Lin Lei had already been inside, and of course he knew how dangerous it would be.
Hogg looked at Lin Lei, who was silent with his head bowed in front of him, and looked like he was listening carefully to the reprimand, he couldn't help but shake his head and sighed: "Lin Lei, it's not that my father wants to scold you, you must know that you are now a genius magician of Ernst Academy, and your future achievements are limitless."
The burden of our Baruch family is to fall on your shoulders.

After all, your brother is still young, and I don't know how long it will take for him to become a real dragon-blooded warrior.
You carry my hope, the hope of our Baruch family, so you can't take your life for granted. ” Lin Lei didn't dare to speak.
"Take your shirt off and let me see if you're hurt."
Hogg said suddenly.
Take off your top Lin Lei hesitated, others couldn't see it when he was wearing clothes, but Lin Lei himself knew how terrifying the dense scars on his body were.
"Take it off."
Hogg frowned.
Lin Lei hesitated for a moment, and finally took off his shirt to reveal his sturdy upper body, which was also densely covered with scars, and even several scars were fatal Seeing the terrifying scars on Lin Lei's body, Hogg felt his heart tremble.
Hogg's trembling hands slowly touched Lin Lei's chest, as well as the almost fatal scars on his abdomen, seeing these scars, Hogg's heart was sour, his son had suffered so much, how to survive from the brink of death, Hogg couldn't think about it.
"Lin Lei, you" Hogg choked.
"Father, I'm fine."
Lin Lei immediately comforted.
Hogg looked at the pile of magic crystal nuclei that represented great wealth next to him, and then looked at the terrifying scars on Lin Lei's body like intertwined tree roots, and Hogg's whole body trembled slightly.
He hates Hate yourself for being incompetent and useless Taking a deep breath, Hogg looked up to the sky and was speechless, and then said in a low voice: "Lin Lei, you are tired from a day of traveling, go and rest early." ” "Yes, father."
Lin Lei quietly left, leaving only Hogg sitting quietly in the candlelit living room:
