Chapter 41: The First Pot of Gold

On the second day back in the Imperial Capital, Dylan received his first pot of gold since joining the Brotherhood of Magic—eight thousand gold coins, and five Shadow Stones.

In addition to the twenty percent collected by the Brotherhood itself, that is, 10,000 gold coins, the other 40,000 gold coins were divided equally among the five people who participated in the operation, and each person was 8,000.

Dylan originally thought that he was just going to make up the numbers and save an emergency, and he shouldn't get so much paid. But Carlos said that each of the brothers who participated in the mission played a certain role, and there was no such thing as which was more important, so the Magical Brotherhood has always been very fair when it comes to distributing rewards, that is, it is evenly distributed.

It was the first time for Dylan to see so many gold coins, and he was a little at a loss for a while, not knowing how to take so many gold coins away.

But fortunately, the Magic Brotherhood was prepared, and they helped Dylan go to the empire's gold store to get a card and deposit all the gold coins into Dylan's private account. Every time Dylan needs to use the money, he just needs to go to the gold bank to get it.

In this regard, Dylan felt very fresh, when he was in North Wind City, he had never heard of Jin Xingyi, let alone seen any account cards, and he was a little surprised for a while, holding the card and looking at it over and over again.

He didn't know that the imperial capital was the most prosperous capital in the Violet Continent, and in many cases, the amount of transactions would be very large. If all transactions were done directly with gold coins, it is estimated that many wealthy businessmen would be exhausted to death, after all, the weight of gold coins is not light.

Even some rare treasures, such as the best equipment created by expert casters, or the best medicines made by alchemists, can no longer be measured by gold coins, and at this time, they often use bartering instead of gold coins as a reward.

Dylan held the card in his hand and hummed a little tune towards the blacksmith's shop. Naturally, he was extremely happy in his heart, no one would not like money, not to mention that he had also obtained five Shadow Magic Stones, which might be able to play a key role in a critical moment. With the money, you can buy a lot of things, including the materials you need to cast yourself, which is very important to Dylan.

You know, although it is very profitable to be a good caster, casting also costs a lot of money, because many rare metal materials are extremely expensive.

If you become an intermediate caster and want to embed magic blessings in the equipment you build, then you need to buy the corresponding magic scroll, and the price of the magic scroll is terrible, Dylan knows.

In the imperial capital, five hundred gold coins can already buy a two-story small building on an ordinary street. And Dylan got 8,000 gold coins at once, what a fortune that is.

It's no wonder that many people say that as magicians, they don't care about money at all, it turns out that they can make a lot of money on their own. While some choose to become bounty hunters and others form hunting groups, Dylan chooses to join the Magical Brotherhood in order to complete quests to earn a lot of money.

Now that you have money, how can you not invite two good brothers to a drink?

Dylan immediately called out Stephen and Donald, and chose an extremely luxurious tavern to prepare for a feast.

I saw people coming and going in the tavern, all of them were majestic and extraordinary, and they had a great deal of origin at a glance. The mellow aroma of wine in the tavern is mixed with the smell of perfume on many women, which is intoxicating to the body and mind.

On a stage not far away, a handsome pianist was playing an elegant song.

Donald leaned into Dylan's ear and whispered, "I said Dylan, the price of this Phantom Tavern is not cheap! You just take us to an ordinary tavern for a meal, why do you have to pick such an expensive one! I tell you, a meal in this tavern will cost at least fifteen gold coins! That's a lot, where did you get so much money?"

Stephen on the side also said: "Yes, I think the Donald's tavern is very good, let's go quickly!"

Not long after the three of them sat down, Donald and Stephen were already a little restless. Because they found that the vast majority of the people who entered and exited these taverns were nobles and celebrities in the imperial capital, or wealthy merchants.

Dylan didn't care about this, and still leisurely poured the two of them full of wine. This bottle of wine alone costs five gold coins, which is enough for an ordinary family to live normally for five months.

Seeing that Dylan was still unmoved, Stephen was also a little anxious, and said: "Dylan, are you having a brain problem, such a waste of money, but it doesn't look like your style of doing things at all!"

Dylan put down the delicate glass wine glass in his hand and said, "This time I brought you here to eat for two purposes. One is because I've made a lot of money lately, and I want to treat the two brothers as they are blessed. Second, because I wanted to experience the daily life of these luxurious aristocrats, I wanted to see how much satisfaction the aristocracy's extremely luxurious lifestyle could bring them. ”

"How much money did you make?" Donald and Stephen looked at Dylan at the same time.

Dylan made an "eight" gesture.

"Eight gold coins?" Donald quickly realized that something was wrong, if there were only eight gold coins, it would not even be enough for the meal.

"Eighty?"

Dylan shook his head.

"Huh, is it eight hundred?" Donald's voice was already a little trembling, eight hundred gold coins was really a lot, and it was worth a week's total income for his family.

Dylan still waved his hand, and then said a number that stunned Stephen and the others: "Eight thousand!"

"Eight thousand?" Donald almost jumped up with excitement. Although eight thousand is not a big number for their family, Dylan is only thirteen years old, and he has only been in the imperial capital for about two months, and he has already earned eight thousand gold coins, which is too terrifying!

Several nobles around who thought they were very elegant couldn't help but look at Donald coldly at this time, and their eyes already showed the contempt for the three Dylan in their hearts.

Donald quickly realized his gaffe, coughed twice, and sat back down.

"What the hell did you do to make eight thousand gold coins?" Stephen also looked incredulous at this time.

Dylan smiled mysteriously and said, "I can't say anything specific for the time being, but I can tell you clearly, as long as you go far enough on the path of magicians, then you can easily make a lot of money!"

When Donald heard this, he grabbed Dylan's hand: "Really? faster than my father makes money?" He originally thought that his father was already a very powerful businessman, but now that he heard Dylan say this, it seems that he can surpass his father in the future and make more money.

Stephen, on the other hand, was lost in thought.
