After William graduated from the Royal Academy of Magic, Diego and Ivan became the leaders of the Royal Academy of Magic.With his outstanding talent, Ivan, who has been promoted to the third year, also serves as the president of the Ming Society of the Royal Academy of Magic, and he and Diego have opened a rune workshop outside, which has always been a topic of conversation among the magic students in the Royal Academy of Magic, but recently, the situation of the two people does not seem to be very good, and the problem lies in the rune workshop.Seeing the two of them coming over with ugly faces, I looked away, not wanting to have any kind of communication with them.At this point, Caterina probably thought there might be danger on my side, and she appeared from the blue wall on the corner.The stone wall was covered with creepers, and I wouldn't have known she had been standing there if she hadn't come out on her own.Seeing that I avoided their gaze, Diego and Ivan hesitated for a moment, then stopped.I walked over to the bench by the wall at the entrance of the academy and sat down, flipping through the magic drawings provided by the Yerkes Scholars.Just when I thought that they had given up the idea of communicating with me, Ivan walked quickly in front of me with a dark face, although his face was extremely difficult to see, but he still said to me with a smile: "Find a quiet place to talk, okay?"
”Caterina saw that Ivan and Diego were not in conflict with me, and were standing at a distance.I looked up at the two of them and said indifferently, "I'm sorry, I'm waiting for someone, if you have anything to say, you might as well say it here, I don't think there seems to be anything to say between us." ”The appearance of Ivan and Diego at the gate of the Royal Academy of Magic immediately attracted the attention of many magic students, who looked at us curiously.Hearing that I rejected his proposal, Ivan was a little excited, and said: "You" Before his words came out, he was stopped by Diego next to him, Diego seemed much calmer, and asked me with a gloomy face: "Ivan and I want to sell the rune workshop, are you willing to take over?"
”I know that the two of them have been losing money all the time, and they have privately subsidized the rune workshop, and it will not surprise me that this rune workshop will change hands or go out of business, but I didn't expect them to find me and want me to take over this mess, which makes me very speechless.Seeing that I didn't speak, Diego continued to say to me, "The workshop is in a good location, just east of 15th Street, where the 6th and 7th blocks meet. ”I looked back at the Royal Academy of Magic behind me, and told myself to restrain my emotions, no matter what the grudge was, at least we were all magic students of the Royal Academy of Magic, and after taking a deep breath, I said to Diego, "I'm not interested in the workshop of the traditional magic rune board, you can ask the others." ”Diego's face was gloomy, as if he expected me to say this, and still refused to give up and said to me: "The primary rune plate workshop market in the entire imperial capital is completely occupied by the red copper magic rune plate and the red copper blank rune plate, the industrial base of the Babington family is in San Carlos, they are not willing to merge and acquire the rune plate workshop in the imperial capital, don't you want to make the business of the primary rune plate workshop bigger?"
”"Didn't think about it!"
I said bluntly.Hearing my answer like this, Diego's face became even more ugly, I don't understand a little, it's just a Fu Workshop, with the family background of the two of them in the imperial capital, even if it can't be operated, it shouldn't be too difficult to find a buyer who wants to take over, even if no one takes over, there is no problem to close the Fu Workshop directly!
Originally, this workshop was opened by the two of them with their usual pocket money and philosopher's stone subsidies.I said to Diego: "The current state of my rune workshop is only barely maintained, and casual expansion can only increase the cost of the magic rune board, and now the pressure of competition in the Imperial Capital magic rune board market is so great, I don't want to take risks easily." ”I don't know why, Diego said so much today, I think I've made it clear enough.Diego asked me with a dark face, "Don't you just refuse without asking about the price of the rune workshop?"
”I stared at the two of them until they both withdrew their gazes and didn't want to make eye contact with me, and then I said, "Are there a lot of rich nobles in the Imperial Capital Gang from time to time?"
Why not think about them, and we don't seem to know each other well enough to deal with the mess for you. ”Ivan asked me in surprise, "Don't you want to further occupy the market of the Imperial Capital's magic rune board?"
”I didn't answer, and glanced at the academy gates.At this time, Ying Li walked out of the academy quickly, waved goodbye to Tinuville at the gate of the academy, the elf girl smiled, and then boarded a magic caravan on the side of the road, the carriage did not continue to stop in front of the academy, and slowly merged into the traffic on the street.Ying Li glanced at me, a little surprised that I was actually standing with Diego and Ivan, holding a magic book in her hand, and walked directly towards me.Diego and Ivan flickered their eyes when they saw Win Li, stared at me deeply, and turned around and walked into the Royal Academy of Magic.Ying Li walked up to me, looked at the backs of Ivan and Diego leaving, and asked me with some curiosity: "Why did you end up chatting with the two of them, what did you all talk about?"
It feels a little weird that there was no fight. ”Actually, I still haven't figured out what this is all about, these two people ran up for no reason and asked me if I wanted to buy their Fu Workshop, it was really nerve-wracking, I said to Ying Li: "Who knows what happened to the two of them today, they actually came up and asked me if I wanted to take over their Fu Workshop." ”Ying Li blinked, smiled at me, and asked, "Can't their Fu Workshop hold on?"
”I said, "Who knows!
It seems to be," Ying Li asked me, "Then what do you think?"
”I shrugged my shoulders and said, "Who cares about their life or death, I don't know them well." ”Ying Li exhaled softly, and asked softly, "Hey, what are we going to eat later?"
”The sun was setting slightly, the street trees on both sides of the street pulled out long shadows, and the sun was about to be obscured by Majaro, and soon the campus entrance returned to its previous atmosphere.Helena and Becky's recent training session ended a little late, and Ying Li and I waited a while before they arrived in the magic caravan.It wasn't until a few days later that I met Louis.Luis has been preparing military supplies recently, and he has been a little busy, these military supplies are used to equip the ten newly constructed knights formed by Louis, in addition to the Mensa family to take out some resources, Louis and Noah privately raised some of them, and some of them are raised from the small lords of the province of Palestina.After Noah obtained the treasure of the Pirate King of the Wasqui plane, he also had a lot of savings, and this time he took out some of the money and handed it to Louis, so that Louis had the confidence to form ten Constructed Knights in one go.Louis asked me to come this time to get some single-attribute magic crossbow arrows from me, although I know that he rushed to Angela to relieve the tension on Prince Charlie's side, but this is a plane war, so I also do my best to help as much as I can.After we finished talking about business, I talked about Ivan and Diego's desire to sell the talisman workshop, and wanted to learn about the situation of some of the upper nobles of the imperial capital from Louis's side.I asked Louis, "Is it necessary for them to do this?"
”Louis sat on a bench in the fine garden on the roof of the Emerald Bay Trading House, his hands folded, and his female assistant, who wore a pair of glasses, looked intellectually beautiful, shrewd and sleek, and stood aside with a book of accounts in her hand.Louis looked at me and said, "I definitely didn't need it before, but now do you know how Zach has been doing recently?"
”I shook my head.Some time ago, I heard that I was rewarded by His Majesty Charles, and then I rushed to Haiyin Silk City, and then went around Haiyuan City, and Zack probably didn't know that I had returned to the imperial capital.Luis said to me: "Since the Nebru spiders of the Hiero plane were repulsed, the lords of Durva Province have a chance to take a breath, and some of the lords who took the risk to support Zack's kid have even been richly rewarded, this time Zack and Ernestine rushed into the desert of Salta Province with their Constructed Knights, and wiped out four groups of sand thieves one after another, Zack used military merit to push himself to the position of the heir of the Grand Duke of Durva Province. ”After I looked at Noah for a moment, I asked Louis, "What does this have to do with me?"
”Louis smiled and said: "Zach also went to the imperial capital last week to participate in various aristocratic balls, Zack's guy is a famous big mouth, at the ball here in the imperial capital, and those celebrities and ladies chatted enthusiastically, during which he talked about the much-talked-about Hiero plane war, of course, he also talked about some of the contributions you made to Hierro" I pressed my forehead, I didn't expect Zack's reckless man to be a big mouth, I thought to myself: "This guy is really uncomfortable!"
”Louis glanced up at the female assistant, and her eyes were a little ambiguous.
Noah and I just didn't see anything, and our eyes only fell on some flowers and plants in the courtyard.Louis continued: "Actually, it's not just this, the South Wind Legion bought a large number of magic giant crossbow arrows from you, and even some magic crossbow arrows from you after I formed a new Constructed Knights, of course, this kind of thing can't be hidden from everyone, you are the largest supplier of magic crossbow arrows in the imperial capital, there are not a few lords in the imperial capital who are waiting for the opportunity to fight, and now many noble lords want to get in touch with you, but they can't find a way, You now understand why Diego and Ivan took the initiative to repair their relationship with you, right?
”I didn't expect this to be the case, it turns out that the magic crossbow arrows in my hands are already a hot commodity in the imperial capital!
I said to Louis, "You're saying that the family behind them wants them to repair their relationship with me?"
”Louis nodded and said calmly: "That's pretty much it, the main reason is that the magic crossbow arrows in the Imperial Capital Magic Market are too expensive now, do you know how much it costs to sell an armor-piercing attribute magic crossbow arrow in the outside magic market?"
”I shook my head, and Noah looked at him curiously.Louis stretched out his hands at the same time, waved seven fingers to us, and said: "Almost seventy silver coins are needed, every war is a gold-swallowing beast, the cost of the war is too much for some lords to bear, and now it is necessary to add additional military materials such as bed crossbows and magic crossbow arrows, those people can't afford it, the single-attribute magic crossbow arrows sold here are twenty silver coins each, do you know how many noble lords in the imperial capital want to befriend you now?"
”I didn't expect it to be because of these things."
Well, so those crossbow arrows of mine are selling too cheaply?"
I asked Louis, "Why didn't anyone come to me when the noble lords wanted to buy magic bolts from me?"
”Louis pointed to his forehead and reminded me, "If you think about it again, you really haven't been invited lately?"
”I recalled it again, and recently Ying Li really told me that there were some banquets at the lakeside manor, and Prince James wanted me to take time to attend, but I refused, so I said: "It seems that Ying Li mentioned to me that I have been a little busy lately, and you know that I have missed a lot of class hours before, and I have to go to Yerkis in the evening, and I have almost no time to socialize." ”Louis looked at me and said with a smile: "Yes, behind you is the Angel Bird royal family, there are some things you don't want to do, Prince James will help you block them!"
”Only then did I realize that Ivan and Diego didn't really want to sell the rune workshop, they actually wanted to use it to repair the tension between us and me.Probably they thought that after the third price adjustment of my Bronze Magic Pattern Talisman Plate, the amount of investment in the magic market would further increase, and they would inevitably take this opportunity to further occupy the magic rune plate market, so they wanted to sell my Charm Workshop that had been losing money to me cheaply.Trucks were crowded underneath the Emerald Bay Trading Company, and a large amount of supplies were unloaded from the trucks.I asked Louis, "How are you preparing here, and is there anything else you need my help with?"
”Louis rubbed his hands together, looking a little spirited, and said to Noah and me, "It's almost over, just wait for your batch of single-attribute magic crossbow arrows." ”In fact, as the first heir of the Mensa family, he didn't need to take any risks at all, but seeing that Noah had established some merits in the Vaschi plane, it may have triggered some of Louis's ideas, so he would ignore the family's obstruction, even if he privately organized the Knights of Armor, he had to rush to Angelado.I said to Louis, "I'll give you this batch of single-attribute magic crossbow arrows first, and I'll deliver the rest in batches." ”
