Louis said excitedly: "Yes, I want all these herbs."
As for the price, just go according to the price on the market now, Jijia, you have done me a great favor, I really don't know how to thank you!
”I smiled modestly and said, "It's nothing, Noah and I are good friends, and we should help each other, but the price, the price of the imperial capital herbs is a bit inflated now, and now it is more reasonable to calculate according to the average price of these primary magic herbs purchased by the trading houses in various places, even so, I have made a lot of money!"
”Louis shook his head again and again and said, "How can it be done, Giga, do you know how much money you will lose?"
In just a few days in the imperial capital, the price of primary magic herbs had tripled.Moreover, now within the scope of the imperial capital, even if you have money, it is difficult to buy magic herbs such as hemostatic herbs, not to mention that you have helped me so much, even if you go according to normal prices, there is no reason for you to suffer. ”Noah and Bard on the side looked at Louis and me a little stupidly, others bargained for nostalgia to make more money, but Louis and I pushed the gold coins in our hands outward, and humbled each other, just like these gold coins were hot.I argued with Louis a little red-faced, as a noble knight, Louis has a gentlemanly demeanor in his bones, since he was a child, under the influence of aristocratic etiquette, he will never take advantage of this, if he takes such a advantage, it is like an insult to his personality, not to mention that the Mensa family has ruled the province of Palestina for hundreds of years, how can there ever be a lack of gold coins, in the private plane of the Mensa family, there are two gold mines alone.Louis and I refused to back down, so we finally had to find a compromise, and I asked Louis, "Louis, does the Emerald Bay Merchant House have its own blacksmith shop?"
”Before dinner, Louis had already changed into the silver scale armor and diameter armor, wearing a close-fitting silk trouser top, his body was strong and burly, he had the unique charm of a mature man, he sat very casually on the bench placed in front of the merchant, attracting the hot eyes of some passing girls on the street, and the women of the imperial capital looked more daring and unrestrained than the women of El City.Of the family's business, Louis proudly said, "Of course!
The Emerald Bay Comptoir is actually an agent in the Imperial Capital for the sale of goods throughout the province of Palestina. ”Louis is not exaggerating at all, the Mensa family's status in the province of Palestina is the same as that of the Ellie family in the province of Sloit, and they have the absolute right to speak within the province.The Emerald Harbor Trading Company is actually acting as an agent for the commercial trade of the entire province of Palestina, and the Mensa family not only owns their own blacksmith shop, but even has the right to call any blacksmith shop in the province.This is the supreme right possessed by the Grand Duke of Mensa."
So can I customize some special instruments and tools?"
I snickered in my heart and gestured to Louis for a rough size.In the city of Eyre, those small blacksmith workshops were unable to process the tools I designed, mainly because these small blacksmiths did not have high-grade metallurgical furnaces, and the crucibles could not smelt enough molten iron to cast those large parts, so the equipment and tools have been put on hold until now, and I can only buy the most basic tools in El City.Originally, I wanted to find a large blacksmith shop in the imperial capital, and then make those parts in batches.Now with Louis's relationship, things are suddenly much easier.Louis's placket was slightly open, and his broad chest was covered with a fine layer of golden chest hair.He said confidently: "As long as you are willing to sell me those herbs, even if you ask me to help you ride a few siege gun wagons, there will be no problem." ”The siege artillery cart is a large siege machine, which is a magical instrument like the magic caravan.To create such a large siege weapon, you need permission from the Imperial military, which is strictly controlled by the Empire.It is said that the entire body of the siege artillery carriage is engraved with a magic pattern array of wind and earth systems, and the siege artillery carriage itself has great power, which can project large stones weighing several tons from several kilometers away from the city, which is a siege weapon.The equipment I want to make is of course not a siege artillery truck, but an auxiliary support and a large spreader for building a city.I needed to make some giant pickaxes to cut rocks and some large scaffolding, and I had prepared these drawings for a long time, but I never found a blacksmith shop with the ability to process large parts.I said to Louis, "I'll hand over the drawings to you tomorrow, and as for the cost, I'll just convert them according to these herbs!"
”In this way, I can be considered to have reluctantly reached a preliminary agreement with Luis.Then, Noah and I left the Emerald Bay Trading House in a magic caravan.I'm going to have the primary magic herbs ready to make three thousand small doses of healing potions before sunrise tomorrow morning.It seems that tonight, I'm going to have the orcs in the underground caverns carry those hemostatic grasses out overnight.The maple trees on both sides of the street flashed back one after another from the window, and a cool evening breeze blew in from the car window, and I was mentally counting the work of the night.The magic caravan passed through the wide avenues of the Third Arrondissement, merging into the traffic, accompanied by the setting sun, reflecting the red glow of the sky, and the clouds in the sky as if they were about to burn."
Oh, it's a burning cloud!"
I looked out the window and blurted out a shout, causing pedestrians to turn their heads to look at the roadside, but the magic caravan was running wild across the long street, and all they could see was a vague figure in the carriage.When I thought that the mountain town in the Xinliu Valley, which was on the verge of stopping, could continue to be built, my mood suddenly became very good.Noah, who was sitting across from me, put on a very serious face and said to me, "Jijia, your character is really stubborn, how did I make such a friend as you."
Everyone else wants to take advantage of Louis more, only you, who is constantly trying to find some balance, and is not willing to take advantage of the slightest advantage, are the people of the north as bold and simple as you?
I love working with people from the North. ”I said to him, "When I have a chance in the future, I will introduce you to my friends in the city of El!"
”"Okay!"
Noah readily agreed, and asked me curiously, "What kind of tools do you want Louis to help you make, why don't you buy them directly in the trading house?"
”I don't know how to explain it: these tools for barbarians are simply not available on the market.He said, "Of course, it's something you can't buy on the market, it's a big chisel, a hammer, a crowbar, an axe, and some large mechanical parts, that's pretty much it!"
”"Jijia, what the hell do you want to do?"
He kind of didn't understand what I was thinking."
Build yourself a manor or castle, if you have the chance!"
I answered truthfully.Now Noah is even more confused, he doesn't understand what I need these tools for, and in his opinion, I should focus on my studies at the Academy of Magic now.And not the barren land that the barren land that he had when he was canonized as a baron.So he said to me, "Are you preparing a little early?"
You don't want to build a manor on the barren land that was given to you when you were first canonized, do you?
”"What's not to do then?"
I smiled and asked Noah.I do have this idea, but at least in a few years.I am a barren plane in the Grand Duke's Court in Sloit, with a stone mine and a lake.I want to build a small estate there, at least so that the people within my realm can live a prosperous life."
It's a poor country, what is there to go to."
Noah snorted, looking bored.Every magic apprentice who awakens the magic pool will be canonized as a third-class baron by the Emperor Charles the Great of the Grimm Empire, and will be rewarded with a barren territory.Few magicians can afford to look at that territory, they are more concerned with the study of magic, the territory with almost no real income, is just a symbol, most magicians will let the inhabitants of those territories develop freely, and some magicians have not even visited his territory in their lifetime.Noah also looked at those barren territories in this way, he sat on the magic caravan, and even began to encourage me: "Jijia, after we graduate, let's form a mercenary group together, and then go to the new plane with rich resources to expand the territory, we can borrow a few knights from Louis, he has a few knights under him who are very good at fighting, then, soon we will establish a territory of our own on the resource-rich plane, and when the time comes, we can be neighbors!"
”Many resource-rich planes are held in the hands of nobles and wealthy families, and there are countless knights, mercenary groups or minor aristocratic forces vassal around these wealthy nobles, in fact, in order to be able to pick a rich place in the plane resources of these wealthy nobles, and then organize an army or a mercenary group by themselves, teleport to this plane, and open up new territories for the empire.According to the decree of the empire: after the knights or mercenary groups open up new territories, thirty percent of the territory is Charles the Great of the Green Empire, and another thirty percent of the territory belongs to the owner of this plane, the so-called wealthy family, and the last forty percent of the territory is considered to be the territory opened up by itself.The titles of the nobles of the Grimm Empire are directly related to the territory they own, and the higher the title, the more extensive the territory of the noble.Obviously, Noah's graduation idea is very good, and some young and promising nobles in many aristocratic and wealthy families will take the power of the knights in the family to enter the plane run by their own family after graduation, and open up a territory of their own, so as to promote their own titles.Being able to follow Noah on a free ride and establish his own power should also be a sense of accomplishment.I readily promised him, "Yes!
”Breaking up with Noah at the gate of the Royal Academy of Magic, he returns to his dormitory alone.I rushed directly to the rented house, this house is not far from the Royal Academy of Magic, it is only one street away from the Academy of Magic next to the food street, it is a small two-story building facing the street, there is an open courtyard in front of the house, the courtyard is paved with a large lawn, this house also has a relatively hidden backyard, there are some fruit trees planted in it, there are begonia fruits, autumn pears and hawthorns, I secretly complained in my heart: the fruits that the owner of this house likes are really unique.Open the door and enter the house, you can see that the first floor is a living room and guest rooms, behind the living room is a kitchen with a dining room, there is a staircase between the kitchen and the living room, you can go directly to the second floor, the second floor has only two bedrooms, one south and one north, and the south facing bedroom has an attic.The entire house is covered with mahogany floors, and in the living room there is a thick blanket on the floor.The house was so comfortably furnished that I couldn't bear to use it as a warehouse, and when I came the second time, I found that there was a small basement in the house for storage.I didn't even stop in the living room, I felt the keychain hanging behind the door from behind the door, walked straight into the basement, and locked the basement door.I don't want someone to accidentally break in after I open the portal.I need to prepare 3,000 magical herbs for healing potions overnight and deliver them to Bard who has come to deliver them tomorrow morning.Time is running out, I must get into the underground cavern as soon as possible, and then let the orcs move the herbs to the basement storeroom.Speaking of which, I haven't been in the underground cavern for a long time, and the last time I came, I received a message from the orc warrior Karantso, in addition to asking me to prepare food and cloth and other materials, there are some other things I want to discuss: the first thing is: the attitude of the orcs towards the goblins in the underground world has undergone some changes, and on the way to the underground cave warehouse, the orcs and the goblins have clashed several times, The orcs had already looked down on those disgusting goblins, but now the conflict has become more and more intense, and it has reached a very serious point.The goblins in the underground caves have recently begun to stir after three years of comfortable life, these despicable low-level creatures are only governed by their own instinctive desires, they will survive because of their instincts to find food, they will also reproduce because of instinct, and these guys have an extremely strong ability to reproduce, in just three years, in the underground world of Xinliu Valley, the total population of goblins has increased fivefold, and the hearts of the many goblins have gradually become inflated.Due to the rapid growth of the goblin population, the goblins face a food crisis all day long.Some goblins, with stronger brains and more sound brains, are starting to have ideas of their own.They were originally higher creatures with the curse of divine punishment, and now they have fallen to the level of lower creatures, but there are also some mutants among them.These powerful goblin warriors began to build up their own power, and then swallowed up other goblin tribes, these goblins became robbers, and gradually they were no longer satisfied with looting the goblin villages, the goblins began to set their sights on the cellars of the underground world, where not only a large amount of wine is stored, but also food, magical herbs, precious wood, magic copper ore, cotton cloth and other living materials, which the goblins have long coveted.I think a fight with the goblins is inevitable after all.The second thing is that the foundation of the entire mountain castle was completed at the beginning of last year.Nowadays, the construction of mountain castles has entered the bottleneck period, because building a castle on a cliff requires a large number of tools, and these tools are not ready.In addition, although I have completed the outline of the foundation of the mountain castle and drawn a few rough outlines of the castle, among the orcs, even the old orc Zewang has no experience in building castles, so I need a master builder to guide these orcs on how to build a majestic mountain castle.Three years ago, I had some preliminary ideas to build a castle at the pass between the two dangerous peaks of the circular valley of the Xinliu Valley, and after three years of preparation, the barbarians I captured were to dig the rocks at the foot of the circular valley, and then polish these huge stones with chisels into huge square stone foundations, so that the barbarian slaves could carry these large stone blocks to the pass, and prepare to build a mountain city similar to the cliff face, which could hold the only main road to the circular valley.Today, more than 600 barbarian slaves can only mine stones in the Xinliu Valley day and night to kill their exuberant physical strength.These stones were polished into huge granite bricks of exactly the same size, which would bite together with each other, and would be used as the wall tiles of the mountain city walls, and the news that Karantso had brought me was that the huge bricks and stones hewn out of granite had been piled up into a pyramid-like hill.That mountain of granite rocks was almost hollowed out by the hundreds of barbarian slaves.
