Because of the storm of the previous day, the roads in the Field Wilderness were muddy. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Horse-drawn carts from the East Valley staggered along the dirt roads, and even if each carriage was equipped with an air elemental balance array, it could not completely offset the bumpy feeling.

Along the way, many magicians with slightly weaker physiques were vomited.

After two days of tossing and turning, a camp finally appeared in front of them, and all the weak magicians breathed a sigh of relief.

In the first carriage sat two masters, Glensey and Modeland, the youngest of the six-member council, Glensey was 58 years old, and Modeland was 54, and they were considered to be in the prime of life among the masters of magic, but in this bumpy section, the two were also tossed enough.

Looking at the humble camp in the distance through the carriage window, Grunsey sighed and said helplessly: "According to me, Your Majesty should not give Link a reward territory, just give him a knighthood." Such a genius should stay in the academy and devote himself to the study of magic. ”

Fonteran is a little stronger, and he has a more funny personality, and he laughs, "I don't mind that, I just think there are too many stones in this territory." ”

"Who's to say it isn't." Glensey looked out the window at the wasteland where even the tenacious weeds were struggling, and complained, "This is my first time in this wasteland, and it must be the last." ”

If he made one more trip, his old bones would definitely be ruined.

Fonterland smiled: "Old fellow, you're about to enter the camp, and when you see Link, don't say that, it will hurt the young man's self-confidence." ”

Because of the discomfort of being upside down, Glency was in a bad mood, and spread his hands when he heard the words: "What is this?" Not only do I have to say, but I also have to persuade him to go back to the academy. Tossing around in such a hellish place was a waste of his magical talent. ”

"Okay, okay, whatever you want." Modeland knew that this old friend was very stubborn, and he didn't persuade him much, just wait for him to be angry.

'Wheels~Wheels~' The sound of wheels, the convoy drove into the scorched earth ridge.

The road in Scorched Earth Ridge was deliberately groomed to appear much smoother and wider, and after the convoy had driven a few distances, they saw a welcoming crowd on the side of the road, among which Link in the Robe of the Flame Controller stood out.

Beside him stood Ellet and Little Love, and next to him were the warriors of the mercenary group such as Arque, Lucy, Gridan, and Carrido.

'Huh~' The coachman stopped the carriage, and one by one the magicians came out of the carriage one after another.

Before getting out of the car, Glency complained in a low voice: "Look, he's still hanging out with a bunch of vulgar mercenaries, it's really ..... Not decent at all. ”

Modeland was speechless, he knew that Glency, the old guy, had no bad intentions, but he didn't have a door at all, and if he met someone he couldn't get used to, he would say it directly.

Although it seems straightforward and sincere, it is especially easy to offend.

After all, Grunsey still knew restraint, and after getting out of the carriage, he did not talk nonsense, and a smile appeared on his somewhat pale face.

As the most powerful member of the academy's six-member council, Glency walked at the forefront, and when he came to Link, he sighed with a sigh on his face: "Link, your place is too desolate, I heard that the climate is still very bad, when will this territory be built." ”

He still couldn't hold back, and the resentment accumulated from motion sickness along the way still leaked a lot from his words.

Link smiled apologetically, bowed and saluted, "Two masters, it's really hard, I'm already planning to build a road, and I can continue with King's Road next year at the latest." Come, come here, I've prepared a resting place for you. ”

These two masters are gray-haired, and they have worked hard all the way to complain a few words about human nature, and Link certainly won't be angry with them.

As he spoke, he turned and led the way, leading the magicians to the hut where they had been working for the past few days.

On the way, Fonteran walked up to Link and asked with concern, "The Dean said that you want to use the Magic Tower to control the harsh climate in the wilderness, how about it, is there a feasible plan now?" ”

Link shook his head, of course he couldn't say anything about the Elemental Lord Sword, so he pretended to be confused at this time and said, "There is no solution for the time being, but the weather has been very good these days, and there was a spring rain yesterday." I think the climate here is exaggerated, but it's not as bad as people think. ”

"Oh, that's fine." Fonterland didn't understand the situation either, and Link said so, and he believed it.

Soon, the group walked to the front of the wooden house.

The hut is a bit rudimentary, and although everything is brand new, it is not a good condition for the magicians who are accustomed to living in the cozy magic towers.

Link also knew this, and his face was even more apologetic: "The accommodation is a little simple, but I have set up a thermostatic magic array in each room, and the furnishings in the room are as clean and tidy as possible, I hope it will not cause you any trouble." ”

Glency looked at the simple wooden house, and his face became even worse, but he didn't come for a vacation this time, so he endured it.

Fonterland was very open-minded and smiled: "This is already very good, I am very satisfied." ”

When he said this, although the other magicians had opinions in their hearts, they couldn't say it, and they couldn't change it anyway, and everyone had to admit it.

Because the magicians were choked all the way, they didn't say much at this time, and they all went into the house to rest.

Glensey and Fonterland were assigned to a detached cabin, arguably the best building in the camp, with two floors and an area of more than 70 square meters, two bedrooms, a living room, and an open balcony on the second floor.

Before entering the house, Grunse's stomach was full of resentment, but after entering the house, he felt a warm and fragrant breath coming to his face, and the whole person was suddenly refreshed, and the spring cold breath on his body was also dispelled.

Look at the furnishings in the wooden house, the wooden frosted floor, a wooden table, a few chairs, and a small bookshelf, all of which are brand new, and the workmanship is very exquisite, the room is also very clean, the whole room is simple, bright, and refreshing.

Glensey is a straightforward person, and when he feels comfortable, his resentment is reduced by half, and a smile appears on his face: "It's not bad, it seems that Link has put his heart into it." ”

Moderan also nodded, he found the thermostatic magic array, studied it carefully, and exclaimed: "This magic array is really a genius design, hiss~ This seems to be a Solren structure, it can accurately control the temperature in the room." I bet it must have been Link's handiwork. ”

Grunsey was curious, and also walked up to look, and after half a minute, he felt pity again: "Really, Link shouldn't build a territory, he should be cultivating in the academy, it's a waste of his talent here." ”

"Okay, old friend, you don't know how many times you've said this. Rest, tomorrow we'll have to find the leyline node where we'll build the Magic Tower. ”

"Okay."

...............

Here, after Link arranged for a magician, he ushered in an unexpected guest.

This person is none other than the owner of the Green Leaf Firm, the merchant White, who has been working with Link.

"Hey, why did you come here yourself? This month's magic gear has been sent to you by Kalido. "There's something strange about Link.

White smiled heartily, during this time, his business house has made great progress, and his whole person seems to be refreshed, he smiled: "I heard that you are ready to let go of your hands and feet to build a territory?" ”

Link also smiled: "Heh~ Your news is really well-informed." It's true, my port was completed very quickly. ”

After the construction of the port is completed, the shipping can be started, and the efficiency of the sea transportation is hundreds of times higher than that of land transportation.

White said: "I have met a lot of nobles in Hot Spring City during this time, they are all interested in your affairs, and the nobles have some specialties for sale in their territories, well, I have compiled a list, you see, there may be something you need." ”

Link took the list and saw that it contained the names of at least 40 noble lords, both from the Kingdom of Norton and the Southern Kingdoms, and behind the noble insignia were the building materials and prices they could provide.

For example, the Earl of Beverly in the north of Hot Springs City can provide red beech wood that is more than 20 years old. Baron Grant, west of Gwent Forest, provided stone. There are also many lords who can provide food. There are even lords who sell slaves to hard labor.

Link looked over and saw that the list was all the things he needed, and he had to sigh at the businessman's keen sense of smell.

He handed the list to his clerk, Joshua: "White, this has helped me a lot. But I'm not going to build the Magic Tower lately, so I'm afraid I don't have the time or energy to do this, so go talk to Lucy, the head of my camp. ”

"Of course it's fine."

"Oh, there's one more thing I want you to help with." Link suddenly thought of a very important thing, that is, there was a shortage of people in his territory, there was a shortage of many, many people, a radius of hundreds of miles, and there were only 2,000 aborigines, which was not a problem at all.

"You say." White immediately said that he had a hunch that this was definitely a big business.

"That's right, my territory needs a large population right now, but the conditions of my territory are too poor to attract freedmen to my ...... at the moment."

Before he finished speaking, White understood, and he smiled: "You need to buy slaves? ”

"By the way, a lot of slaves, the more the merrier, do you have a way?" Link laughed, this was really a shrewd businessman, he really didn't see the wrong person in the first place.

"Master, what specific requirements do you have for these slaves?"

"Young and strong."

"What about race and gender?"

"Preferably the Terrans. As for gender, it is split between men and women...... Oh no, there are more men, I need men to build a territory, and I need men to do the work. "There's another reason Link didn't say, he also needs to recruit soldiers from these slaves.

White pondered for a moment, and then said, "There aren't many slaves in the kingdom, and even if there are, they are all dark elves. You certainly don't need to. But there were many Southern merchant alliances, and there was often friction there, and a large number of prisoners of war were enslaved, and the nobles were happy to sell them for money. I'll get back to you when I get back. ”

"Thank you."

White was resolute and didn't stay for a moment, turned around and went out with Joshua to discuss the purchase of materials with Lucy.

Link was alone in his study, thinking about his future plans.

In the future, if he wants to build a magic tower, build a territory, and greatly expand the population of the territory, it will definitely cost money like a flood, and he has to find a way to make money from open source.

It's time to mine the demon-resistant clay in your territory. (To be continued.) )
