vs 14 A caravan came from afar
The Mana Floating Dragon is not actually a dragon, it is only a type of mayfly.
However, this mayfly is very special, its body is not composed of flesh and blood, but pure energy.
"You said, you are so fat, is it because of Benjue's mana?" Nelson squinted and poked her finger at the ephemera's fat belly, hell there was still a soft elasticity!
"Whew!" The Mana Floating Dragon shook its head happily.
Mayflies have very low intelligence, and they will not be able to learn language throughout their lives, and will only act according to their master's orders briefly.
"Oh my God, I'll take you out to fight in the future, and I'll be ashamed of myself if I win. You say, who the hell is your mother, is she also a fat woman! ”
"Whew!"
"Whoop your uncle's sister! No, I'm going to resummon, it must be that my mind wasn't pure enough when I cast the spell just now! ”
"Whoa, whoa......" Mana Floating Dragon actually anthropomorphically showed a pitiful expression, and approached Nelson to make love.
"Go away, go away...... Mmmm Although the mayfly has a fat body, it is still very agile, and its little tail is wrapped around Nelson's neck, and it cannot be pulled apart from it.
"Knock knock!" There was a knock on the door of the study.
"Ahem, come in!" Nelson finally broke free from the mana floating dragon's tail, but the fat creature was lying directly on his head, like a strange hat.
"Young Master, ...... today Hey, what is it? "The person who came in was Tirio, and in the whole castle, Tirio and Nat would come looking for him.
"Oh, this is the pet I just summoned, it's called ...... Fatty. ”
"Whew!" Fat screamed in satisfaction.
"Summoning beasts, the young master is really getting more and more powerful! But if you have a pet, leave it to Tirio. Tirio said respectfully.
"Well, I really don't have time to take care of this guy. Fatty, go to Tirio's. As soon as Nelson commanded, Fat flew in the direction of Tirio.
Tirio carefully spread his hands, and the fat fell into his arms very obediently.
This surprised Nelson a little, it turned out that this guy was only so noisy on himself, but he was obedient when he fell into the hands of others.
"Tirio, what's the matter?" Nelson stopped thinking about the power floating dragon and asked directly.
"Yes, young master, I will report a few things to you." Tirio held the fat in one hand, took out a small book from his trouser pocket with the other, and said:
"First things first. There are three months left before the coming-of-age ceremony of your sixteenth birthday, young master. According to the rules of the imperial family, the young master must go to the imperial city in person to be crowned. After the successful coronation, young master, you will be a baron. ”
Speaking of which, Tirio was clearly a little excited, having been serving Nelson at a very young age. Whether it was before or now, his loyalty and worship have never changed, and his master can be knighted smoothly, which is his greatest wish so far.
"Imperial City? How long does it take to get to the Imperial City from here. Nelson asked calmly as he tapped his fingers on the table.
"If it goes well, it will only take half a month to take the carriage."
Nelson nodded, indicating that he had made a note of the matter.
"Second thing. The Kepleton caravans will pass through this area from tomorrow, but their captain has written that this time they will not trade in our city, but will change to Eagle City. ”
"Eagle City? Show me the main city of the fat pig, letter. ”
Tirio stepped forward, pulled out the letter in his right breast pocket, and handed it to Nelson.
Nielsen took a quick look at it. At the beginning, Balabala said a bunch of greetings, and in the middle Balabala said some compliments, until the end, he said the main point:
"In view of the economic depression in Stadt City this year, Eagle City has generously waived the garrison tax for our caravan, so I am sorry to inform you that this year's Kepleton caravan will choose to stay in Eagle City. Of course, I sincerely hope that we can maintain the cooperative relationship. ”
After reading the letter, Nelson looked gloomy.
"Dead fat man digging into my corner everywhere, are you a mouse!" Nelson roared in his heart.
"Tell me, Tyrio, what's going on with this caravan deal?"
"Yes, young master. The Capleton caravans were the more famous medium-sized caravanserais, and they set out from the south all the way north every year, trading their specialties with each town. In previous years, caravans only held transactions in our city, but that was also because the caravan captain had a good relationship with the master. ”
"I heard that this year's leader is the son of the original captain, and it is estimated that this has something to do with the change of the caravan city."
Nelson glanced at the letter in his hand again, and the letter ended with the signature "Ben. Barney", analyzed in his heart: "Let his son lead the team, it should belong to assessment and exercise; If it were me, I would also choose the more prosperous Eagle City as the trading venue, so that the results would be better. ”
"Did you just say that they will buy and sell specialty products in the towns along the road, including those of other races?"
"I don't know exactly what races they are, but judging from previous years, there will be some elves, beasts and even goblins for sale, but the number is not much, and it is very expensive."
Nelson's eyes rolled when he heard this, and he made up his mind that even if the trade wasn't taking place in his own city, he had to go to it.
"How much property is left in the castle?"
"There's another box of unused gold bars, and another box that only has a small half, about twenty ounces."
"Well, got it, is there anything else important?"
"Yes, young master. Patrols have just been reported of looting in the eastern sector, although the robbers have been contained. The patrol captain wants to recommend a farmer to join the team, and here is the application form. ”
Tirio pulled out a folded piece of paper from the back pocket of his butt, spread it out with one hand, and handed it to Nelson.
Nelson glanced at the application form, the handwriting was crooked, not neat, but he could finally see what was written.
At the end of the form, there is a recommendation from the captain that the farmer was a great help in the battle, especially encouraging the morale of the brothers.
A smile tugged at the corner of Nelson's mouth, isn't the shouting sergeant just giving attack power to friendly followers? Without hesitation, he picked up a quill and signed his name, returning the registration form to Tirio.
"Anything else?" Nelson felt that it was not easy to be a city lord, just like the emperor, he had to review the recitals every day. The key is that there is no palace maid to serve, and there is no harem beauty, sometimes it is really unexciting to think about it.
"Yes, young master." Tirio nodded slightly, then looked at the contents of the note, and frowned for a moment.
"What's wrong? Anything important haven't been said? Nelson noticed Tirio's strange expression and took the initiative to ask.
"Young master, you haven't taken a bath for three days. I've put the bath water for you, so please go to the bathroom immediately. ”
Belch...... Nelson suddenly felt a little ashamed. Otaku don't like to take a bath, this is a natural attribute, he crossed into this world, and the last thing he is used to is taking a bath every day.
Tirio also said that this was the basic habit of life of the aristocracy.
Oh my God, I just want to drink afternoon tea every day, look at the scenery outside the window, and be a quiet aristocratic beautiful man.
"Young master, if you don't go, the water will be cold again."
"Okay, okay, got it." Nelson couldn't blame Tirio for that, as it was his job. But before getting up, I still complained in my heart: "It's really more annoying than my mother!" ”
