Chapter 113: A Little Money in Heaven......
Although the half-plane security of Eden on the other side is very high, and it is also very in line with the mysterious atmosphere of the magic academy, but after all, the restrictions on the later growth are too great, not to mention the fact that the area cannot be expanded alone, in case there are more buildings in the future, then I am afraid that even the land for building new buildings will be gone...... Can that be called the world's No. 1 magic academy?
Apparently not.
So Xiwei chose Sky Cloud City after the most reluctance.
And if you think about it, Sky Castle is also very powerful.
Others use mounts to move around, and magicians have magic items such as flying carpets and walking chairs, and more advanced ones take magic ships...... But who can use an academy as a means of transportation?
If you don't like it, you can directly smash it over, and the power is estimated to be comparable to the explosion of the four-ring magic meteor, how domineering this is! Of course, the premise is that the academy will not be destroyed because of this......
Well, these are actually only secondary reasons, the most fundamental is because Sivi thinks that the page-like college in the academy construction panel, the so-called 'First School District', is likely to be in another dimension or half-plane. In that case, of course, the second school district cannot repeat this routine.
And compared to the empty ship, Sivi always felt that the magic steam train was a bit unreliable......
In short, after he chose the type of branch college, the task changed from [Second School District?] Opened up became the second school district? Inaugurate? Preparation】
[Mission: Second School District?] Inaugurate? Preparation】
[Mission content: The beginning of a good story is half the battle!] Preparation for the academy is important! Please complete the following requirements to lay the most solid foundation for the construction of Sky Cloud City! 】
[Task requirements: 200 points each for stone and metal resources.] 150 alchemy material resources, 120 wood resources, 20 gem resources, and 500 gold resources; and cleared the special dungeon 'Star Sea Ruins' with A grade or above]
“……”
Xiwei silently glanced at the remaining resource points after he completed the protective enchantment, and then the whole person was OTZ.
System, you're definitely cheating on me, right? There are not enough resources at all, hey! It felt like the brave man was ready to crusade against the Demon King, and as a result, he ran into an official who collected the poll tax when he left the city. Because he couldn't pay a single copper, he was dragged to prison and sentenced to life imprisonment! What a pit you are!
After silently overturning the coffee table in his heart, Xiwei immediately regained his usual calm.
First of all, if you want to get together so many resources little by little through dungeons, unless all the next clearance rewards are all drawn resources, it is obviously unrealistic - just relying on the knick-knacks collected by the miscellaneous soldiers to exchange resources that are not enough to even plug the gaps. I'm afraid to wait until the Magic Academy Review in five months (Chapter 29, how many people still remember...... These resources can barely be gathered.
Fuck your sister's daylily. When the time comes, even the sewing flowers will be cold, okay!
Incidentally, it is a magical plant that grows on the edge of a volcano and has a temperature of 130 degrees Celsius, and is also the main ingredient in hot drink potions (potions that keep themselves warm in the cold winter zone).
In this case, it is obvious what to do.
Sivi swished to his feet, his sudden movement startled the girls around him, and he stopped arguing more and more like a homely chat, and looked at Sivi for some reason.
"Instead of going straight to a certain place, spend a lot of money and manpower to build an academy. We have more important things to do now! He began to speak impassionedly.
But before he could finish speaking, Sophia suddenly interrupted him.
"You were the one who wanted to go straight to a certain place to establish an academy, right?" She hit the nail on the head and got to the heart of the matter. …,
"Uh," Sivi was stunned for a moment, but immediately began to continue with righteousness, "That's right. But I've been pondering for a long time, this can't go on! If you want to establish an academy, in addition to a lot of money and resources, you must also have the corresponding strength and experience. From this point of view, we still have a lot to be desired! ”
Although he was just looking at the update project of the magic academy system, if you look at it from the perspective of ordinary people. It was indeed as if it was contemplation. Coupled with the acting talent that Sivina developed at some point, several girls who were only seventeen years old believed him.
"So at times like these, we should continue to train and help others along the way. It can not only enrich our experience and exercise our abilities, but also promote the reputation of the college that has not yet been established, so that the college that has not yet been established can have a certain degree of popularity, which is a real double win! ”
Speaking of which, Sivi's intentions are already clear.
That's right, he's going to pick up some one- or two-star missions on the road, and solve them as quickly as possible with the help of the girls.
After all, compared to dungeons, many of the rewards for quests seem to be resource-type, and the number is much more generous. And at the same time to promote his own academy, in addition to the high-sounding reason he just told the girls, the biggest reason is to try to see if this behavior can make his reputation value rise further - after all, he needs prestige points to receive tasks, although because of the previous successive events, he now has a lot of achievement points, but if he really starts brushing tasks, it will definitely be insufficient soon.
Breaking even is king!
As he spoke, Xiwei suddenly found that he had just completed the main task of [Beginning to Take Shape], which had been bothering him for nearly a month, but for some reason he always felt that his schedule was not only not as idle as he wished, but was a little busier......
It must be just an illusion, it doesn't scare me!
So he cheered himself up in his heart as he continued, "Of course, we have to make a trip back to my Mage's Tower, where the key items for the magic to be taught to Alice are still there. ”
After all, at the beginning, he just planned to send Tio home and everything was OK, so a lot of unused sundries were not brought with him in order to save space, who would have expected that things would be like saying good, and they would gather in waves, and finally it would develop to come to the Lylian Academy as a guest professor or something......
"It's not like I don't understand what you mean, though." Sophia rubbed her forehead with some distress, and then she glared at Sivi, who didn't know what to do, and said word by word: "But you said so much, but you didn't mention the most critical issue at all!" ”
"The most critical question?" Sivi had a question mark in his head: "What's that?" ”
"Of course it's how we should get out of here!"
"Ah......h If you're not careful, you forget about it......
The next day, passing through the mountain town of Govin Hora, there were five more men in mage robes on a convoy of seven swollen-hoofed wagons.
"Ah, I really didn't expect Mr. Edric to ride in our carriage, it's so brilliant!" The chubby goblin rubbed his hands together, and his eyes were full of reverence.
"I didn't expect to run into you, Sasan-san."
Sivi also responded slightly, after all, this goblin had also ventured to act as a messenger between him and the eldest princess, and his character was ...... Well, I mean it's pretty good.
Originally, the carriage he was sitting in was also full of goods, but because of their excuses, Sasansang and his party distributed the goods among the other six carriages, and made a carriage for them. …,
"Hehe, in fact, last time it was long...... Ahem, the lord gave Shasang a tax exemption certificate. Shasang said proudly, if it weren't for the eldest princess's warning, I'm afraid it would have been all over the streets to publicize the great things it had done: "But the validity period is only one year, and the income can only run a few orders in this year." ”
The commercial tax in this world is still very heavy, and the status of merchants is only slightly better than that of tenant farmers, and those small merchants are purely equated with thieves and swindlers. Those merchants who eat the difference in the price of regional goods spend dozens of times more money on commercial taxes than on freight, and it is no wonder that there are only a little bit of businessmen who can do a good job and become bigger.
In this case, it is conceivable that if the business tax is exempted, even if it is only in various parts of the Lylian Empire, even if it is only for one year, as long as Sasang Sang is a little more diligent and travels around the Lylian, next year the rich list of Lylian (if any...... Maybe there will be a goblin for the first time.
"Is your destination Morston this time?" Sivi asked casually.
"No, we're going to go directly to County Yonia, Morston's population is too small to consume our goods." Sasansan shook his head, and his two ears that looked huge shook with his movements, looking funny: "It's not in our interest to stop for a day for the purchasing power of such a small place...... Ah, of course, if Lord Adric wants to stop there, it's no problem, even if it's a loss, Sasan-san will stop there! ”
Seeing the fat goblin desperately trying to please himself, to be honest, Sivi actually feels pretty good.
However, he didn't want to let the other party lose any benefits for his own reasons, and they only went to Moston because the post station there should have horse-drawn carriages to rent, so it was easier to go to other towns. Since you can go straight to the larger county of Yonia, why not?
"No, we'll stop by Yonia County." Xiwei said decisively: "I will settle the carriage and food expenses on the road after they arrive." ”
"No, no, no, what do you say, sir! It is an honor to be able to carry you, how can I collect money! The fat goblin shouted, as if it was hard to accept, "Besides, my lord, you so many magicians sitting here, doesn't it make us feel more secure!" ”
Sivi smiled and didn't answer.
Shasangsan's convoy actually hired mercenaries from the Demon Swordsman, and each of the seven Demon Swordsmen had a murderous aura on their bodies, and it seemed that they had also seen blood. On the other hand, on Xiwei's side, Xiao Bu Tiou doesn't care, and the other three girls also have a bit of an innocent and pure aura, and if they really fight, I'm afraid that the other party can settle it by sending a magic swordsman casually...... Shasang Sang is also an experienced businessman with a vicious eye, so you can see at a glance that most of what he said just now was just a compliment.
Of course, if you count Xiwei, those seven demon swordsmen may not be enough for him to play alone...... (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to (.) to vote for recommendation, monthly pass, your support is my biggest motivation. )
