Chapter 320 New Things

Arrow nodded and smiled, "This is a matter of our Mermaid Song. Did you pass the news on to Viscount Ruichi? ”

Round Cheese nodded vigorously: "Yes! I went to talk about it as soon as I received the news, and I only came back this morning! I believe it won't be long before Viscount Ruichi will come to your guild to thank you, right? At the same time, the renovation of Swan Castle will start again! ”

A gleam of joy appeared on the mayor's face: "Oh, if our town succeeds in becoming a city, then Swan Castle is the nearest castle near our town, then this viscount will become our lord?" Hahaha! It's better to have this guy as a lord than to have Viscount Norris in charge of us! That guy is easy to deal with! Hahaha! ”

accidentally said what was in his heart, and Arrow could only smile. After the mayor was happy enough, he stretched out his hand and pointed to Margaux who was drinking rock sugar water next to him, and said with a smile: "Mayor Town, this is the new member of our guild. This time, Miss Margaux was able to successfully destroy the demonic beast, and Miss Margaux contributed a lot. ”

Round Cheese noticed Margaux next to him, but then he was stunned for a moment, and then said, "This? This is not the one who came with Count Eagle...... Is it? ”

Obviously, Round Cheese wanted to say the word "mistress", but he finally braked in time and didn't say it.

Arrow didn't intend to make him think too much, and said with a smile, "So, who do you think this member of mine is?" ”

Round Cheese's gaze fell on Margaux's face, at her half-white, half-black hair, and at the staff of light in her hand. After a moment of silence, he finally made a decision: "I understand, it turns out that Miss Margaux is a nun of the Holy See of Light who was entertained by Count Ruiying!" Then I will understand! Oh, the heir of the High Priest of the Holy Bread is so powerful, he can easily deal with that demonic beast...... Call! Sister Margaux, really...... Thank you so much! ”

Margaux was a little crying and laughing at this title, but she saw that Arrow didn't seem to want to deny it, so she could only deny it herself, and said: "What you said is too exaggerated, I'm not a nun." Other than that...... I've always heard you talk about the high priest, what kind of person is this high priest? ”

As she said this, Margaux unconsciously clenched the staff in her hand.

Speaking of the former High Priest of Light, Round Cheese, Arrow, and Coco all had a slight sadness on their faces.

The mayor sighed and said slowly, "That high priest is really a good man...... I've never met anyone so nice. He treated the kids very well and was patient with us. Even with such a noble status as a high priest, he never put on a show. As long as I was around him, I seemed to be able to feel a warm feeling...... It's a pity......"

Seeing that the atmosphere was gradually turning heavy, Arrow smiled and said, "But in general, we have now avenged Uncle Saint Cake. Swan Castle is back to normal, and the danger of the entire Pelican Town is gone! That's a great thing. ”

Coco also had a very sad expression, but after hearing what Arrow said, he also nodded and said, "Yes, I believe that if Uncle Saint's soul knew, it would definitely be happy for us...... Uncle Holy Bread......"

It's just that Round Cheese and Arrow miss that holy bread, but what makes Margaux a little incomprehensible is that this necromancer actually misses the Light Priest too? It's a bit of a surprise.

Arrow smiled and continued, "Okay, okay, let's not talk about these things. Our esteemed mayor, how did you discuss with the sugar-coated owner? Now I think the town has begun to enter the preliminary construction work. Is there anything I need to pay attention to or need my help with? ”

After chatting for a long time, Round Cheese remembered that the most important thing was not said, and quickly nodded and said with a smile: "Of course, of course!" With that start-up capital, our Pelican Town is not far from being developed! If you say that President Arrow, you have the foresight and ask me to build the road first! This is not? Our Pelican Town to Kingfisher and Heron Town, as well as our roads to Lagoon City, are in the repair phase. When we run the carriage on this road, it will be less bumpy and the speed will be a little faster! ”

Arrow nodded and said with a smile, "It's really important to build the road, besides, how about installing those elemental lights on both sides of the road that I proposed?" ”

At the mention of this elemental lamp, a look of regret appeared on the face of the round cheese. He smiled at Arrow and said, "I said...... President Arrow. Is the Elemental Light really safe? I've heard that this kind of thing has fire spirits in it! If these fire elves go berserk, wouldn't our Pelican Town be in a sea of fire? ”

Arrow's brow furrowed slightly, "What does this mean?" Don't want to pretend? ”

Round Cheese continued to laugh: "You see, our town has always used oil lamps for hundreds of years! Now there's an elemental lamp that pops up all of a sudden.,I've heard that this kind of thing is still popular in the capital.,Right? It's expensive, and it looks like it's dangerous. After all, it takes so many fire magic elements! This and this...... I consulted with the mayors of Kingfisher and Honglu, and the mayors of both towns were reluctant to put this kind of thing in their guilds. And even if it's installed, we're going to have to customize a special one to provide the elements...... Elemental machine, right? That thing seems to be even more dangerous, I just recently heard that there was an elemental explosion in the capital, and several people died! ”

For round cheese's words, Arrow didn't mind much. He thought for a moment and said with a smile, "This news is coming from the Lagoon City, right?" ”

Round Cheese smiled: "Where else can this come from?" Lagoon City, of course! ”

Eero: "So Mayor Town, have you ever thought that the news about the explosion of the Elemental Machine will not spread sooner or later, but when we want to unite three towns and one city to build the Elemental Machine, this news suddenly came out?" Why is that? ”

Round Cheese tilted his head and thought for a moment, looking a little ignorant: "This...... Because of what? ”

Ai Luo didn't answer directly, but continued to ask with a smile: "If the Elemental Machine and Elemental Lamp are a very safe thing and popularized, then whose interests will be harmed?" ”

Round Cheese's eyes widened, his mouth open, and he couldn't answer for a while.

Coco on the side drank a bowl of rock sugar water, and after feeling a little refreshed, he immediately said, "It's so stupid, I don't know this?" You've really been following our elder brother for so long. ”

Margaux would not let go of such an opportunity to suppress the arrogance of this little girl, and immediately followed: "Oh? So our little necromancer knows? Tell me about it? ”

Coco's face flushed all of a sudden, and she puffed out her cheeks, and after a moment of silence, she turned her head sharply and gave Arrow a look asking for help.

Arrow smiled involuntarily, he looked at Cocoa, then at the round cheese on the side, and finally stopped at Margaux: "So, you know what? ”

Margaux snorted, raised the staff of light in his hand slightly, and fell down lightly as if to show his status, and said, "Do you need to talk about this?" The first to be hit must be the merchants and manufacturers who sell lamp oil, as well as those who make lanterns and oil lamps. Once the promotion of the element machine is realized, it means that they will have a large amount of inventory that will be unsalable in an instant, and suddenly turn from a money-making thing to a roadside garbage. If you think a little deeper, if this kind of goods has been placed in the warehouse, then the storage cost must have risen significantly over time. In this case, it's hell that such a person would spread the benefits of the Elemental Machine and the Elemental Light. ”

Listening to Margaux talking so much now, Coco was a little unconvinced, but when she turned her head to look at Arrow, she saw her president smiling and nodding slightly: "Sure enough, insightful." Listening to your tone, you don't seem to be very new to such things as elemental machines? ”

Margaux sneered: "In Tianhe City before, I have seen someone come to sell this kind of thing. The one that used the power of the waterfall to generate heat energy was the water element machine designed at the time. However, the Earl controlled more than half of the city's lamp oil supply system at the time, so building such a water elemental machine was the biggest limit. ”

Iero was still smiling, and this expression that was always full of smiles made Margaux, who was all talking, seem to have a chill down his spine, and his whole body was cold: "You...... Why do you keep looking at me? I know you're smart, if I say something wrong, you can just point it out, you don't need to look at people so gloomily. ”

"Hahaha, don't get me wrong, I didn't mean to laugh at you." Airo quickly retracted his gaze and said with a smile, "So what do you think of yourself?" Are elemental machines and elemental lights any better? Is it more dangerous or more harmful? ”

Margaux thought for a moment, and finally shook her head slightly: "I don't know. After all, this thing is a new thing, and if it can be fully applied in the capital, I believe it will not be long before it can spread throughout the country. But it doesn't seem to be that trend yet. ”

It was not surprising to this answer that all progressive things would meet with strong opposition from reactionary forces at the outset. Because those reactionary forces are usually people who are in high positions and have a lot of money and status. The emergence of something new is highly likely to threaten this position of theirs, and of course it is impossible to make such a thing bigger.

But as long as enough time is given, new things will slowly take over. And those who are naysayers will slowly turn into welters, scrambling to accept this new thing.

Now the only question is......
