Chapter 20 Pica Academy
Cardiff Town is about an hour away from Pica Academy, and I don't know what the headmaster of the academy thought about when it was first established, and would place a large magic teleportation array in the wilderness more than an hour away from the academy. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 Info then moved around this teleportation array one after another, and eventually formed the current town of Cardiff, a town built on a large magical teleportation array.
The barren wilderness was reclaimed by the early ancestors, and the cattle and sheep, neat and wide fields, and a variety of crops decorated the wilderness into a huge and beautiful picture. It is only half a day's walk away from the royal capital of the Lon Nol Empire, the Kadulabi Castle, so it is also one of the supply places for eggs, milk, meat and crops in the imperial capital.
Lying on the railing of the carriage and blowing the wind, Xiaoyu listened to the senior who had previously carried Vino on the train to tell the children about the surrounding geographical conditions. The car is blessed with wind magic, which is not only fast and stable but also not bumpy. It's very close to the imperial capital! In this way, it will be very convenient to go to the imperial capital to play in the future! And the imperial capital is the largest and safest auction house in the country, which means that she can find special seeds or plants there. Or it's okay to exchange, anyway, she has a lot of good goods in her hands. It seems that in the future, if you have nothing to do, you will have to go to the imperial capital more often, and maybe there will be a great opportunity again! She narrowed her eyes.
In my ears, the senior has already talked about the history of the founding of Pica College. This Xiaoyu is not interested in listening, she has already read through the history, military and culture of various countries, as well as the history of the most representative institutions of various countries in the study room of the space, so there is nothing good to hear.
The wind blows so comfortably, and you should go out for a picnic in such a good weather. Xiaoyu looked at the farmland on both sides of the road, and then unexpectedly saw a lot of vegetables and fruit trees that grew like the earth. Does that mean that you don't have to worry about it anymore, and you can use the crops in the space as you like in the future? However, they don't seem to have such things as rice and wheat, so we have to inquire about this.
Xiaoyu looked at the idyllic scenery around her and made up her mind to find a time to investigate. If she's sure it's okay, her thoughts will go more smoothly. As for rice, the fact that the Lon Nol Empire did not have it does not mean that other countries do not, but there may be one but no one has paid attention to it!
In such a cranky thought, the convoy came to a mound. Looking down, the Beka Academy appeared in full view. Speaking of being an academy, it looks more like a huge city surrounded by high walls. The black-and-gray city walls have a number of watchtowers, arrow towers and magic towers on the walls. The most prominent buildings in the city are the towering three spires of the Mage, and then the huge castle in the center of the Mage Tower, dotted with green roofs. A huge fortress city, standing alone in the wilderness, huge, solemn, magnificent but full of lonely taste, accompanied by only a big river that has flowed for I don't know how many years. Rushing in, circling the city, and galloping away
"It's big, but it's very lonely!" In the cheers of many children, Xiaoyu just sighed faintly with her cheeks under her pestle. The senior heard her whisper and looked at her a little strangely, what strange thoughts were in this child's little head.
The convoy crossed the moat, stopped at the gate of the college, and when everyone had disembarked, the car turned around and headed for Cardiff. During the enrollment period, new students from all over the country will be teleported every day, and they are all in a hurry to pick up and drop off.
The check-in office is the south gate of one of the four entrances of the academy, and there are long tables on the left and right sides of the huge city gate, which are the reporting points of the martial arts academy and the magic academy. Those with good qualifications must go to classes with superior teachers, and those with average qualifications can only go to ordinary classes.
Xiaoyu gave Vino a small money bag, which was the tuition fee for this semester. Motioned for him to go to the queue to register first, and then stood aside and waited for her. There will always be a way to solve the problem of accommodation, and she doesn't believe that all children live in big dormitories. It is impossible for the children of the nobles to live with the children of the commoners, so there must be a way.
After paying the tuition fee of 100 gold coins, the teacher motioned for her to go to the table next to her to pay the accommodation fee. Xiaoyu took a closer look at the signs on several tables next to her that said to pay accommodation fees, she found a small queue of people, and soon it was her turn. "Twenty rooms in an ordinary dormitory, twenty gold coins for a semester. Ten rooms in the junior dormitory, one hundred gold coins per semester. Intermediate dormitory room for eight people, 300 gold coins per semester. Quadruple room in a senior dormitory, 500 gold coins per semester. The female teacher quoted the price without raising her head, and it was up to the students to choose for themselves.
"Teacher, is there a small house to choose from? Xiaoyu wanted to talk about the villa, but she was afraid that people wouldn't understand.
"Huh?" the female teacher looked up in surprise, this girl wants a dormitory in the villa area? Is this the child of a noble family? No, the children of the nobles are not reported at this door. "Yes, yes, but the price is not cheap, are you sure you want to live? "For the college, there is a house, and there is no restriction that it must be lived in by the children of the aristocracy, as long as you have the money to live wherever you want. Where did this kid come from, he can't even say anything about the villa, and he is still a small building!
"I just want a small villa, how much does it cost?" Xiaoyu was very happy to hear it, how much money is not a problem!
"Five thousand five hundred gold coins for a semester, if you rent it for a whole year, ten thousand gold coins a year. The female teacher played with the quill in her hand and looked at Xiaoyu for a long time. I thought that this soil bun should not live, it is estimated that it is a child in the countryside who has never seen the world with a big mouth, what a waste of her time. was about to say something impatiently, but was startled by Xiaoyu's next move.
"Then I'll rent it for three years first, and if I want to continue renting it after three years, I'll have priority!" Xiaoyu estimated that he would stay in this academy for at least three years. As for whether she will leave or stay in three years, she took out three amethyst coins (*Note) and put them on the table.
The female teachers were a little stupid, and even the teachers and classmates at the table next to them were dumbfounded. Amethyst coins! Without hesitation, he took out three of them, what is the origin of this kid?!
"Teacher, is there any problem? if not, please deal with it quickly, there are still classmates waiting in the back!" Xiaoyu was not impatient, but it was not good to delay the people behind.
"Yes, yes, no problem. You, you live in No. 15 in the green district!" The female teacher stammered, and then reacted and hurriedly collected the money to register and then handed over the key. In the aristocratic registration area, amethyst coins are not uncommon. But this is the first time I've seen it in a civilian area!
"Thank you, teacher, then how do we get to the green area?" Xiaoyu took the key and continued to ask.
"After entering the gate, there is a boarding area on the right-hand side. Just show your key tag to the people there and they will arrange for you to ride to the dormitory. The teacher hurriedly pointed out.
"Thank you, teacher! Xiaoyu thanked him, turned around and walked towards Vino, who was standing in a daze in the crowd. "Let's go, let's go to the dormitory!" she pulled Vino towards the school gate, leaving her inquiring eyes behind.
(Note: Continental currency unit: one amethyst coin = one hundred crystals, one crystal coin = one hundred gold coins, one gold coin = one hundred silver coins, one silver coin = one hundred copper coins)
