Chapter 45: Pyne's Chronicles

Mr. Pine was the corpse that was carried by the woman, could not be saved, and was finally buried by the woman across the street from his house.

When he saw that woman was so dedicated and wanted to save the man at all costs, Shen Yan thought it was a love story that could be sung and cried...... Unfortunately, this is not the case at all.

Listening to Pyne's own story, he realized that Pyne and the woman were a combination of a poor but talented magician and a rich lady, which was typical. Pyne needs money to study magic, while the rich man needs the power of a magician to maintain his wealth, and the two sides could have been friendly and cooperative.

However, the most important part of this "transaction", Miss Rich, is a woman who is so controlling that she is perverted! She can't tolerate the slightest disobedience from Pine, whether it's Pine's magical research or every aspect of life, everything has to listen to her! Especially after she inherited the family business, things became even worse.

One of the things she often says is, "If you dare not listen to me, I won't even want to die if you let you die!" ”

In the world of high magic, this is really not a word of intimidation.

Then Pyne really found a deep mountain old forest and killed himself, and made sure that even if that location was found in time, it would not have time to be transported to the big city to be resurrected. If he finds it late, maybe even the bones will rot - so before he died, he proudly wrote a suicide note to his wife, wrote all his thoughts on it, and died happily after writing.

His wife really refused to admit defeat, and she was even more mad after seeing the suicide note, and she had to resurrect him and continue to abuse him after spending a lot of money! It's a pity that money is sometimes not everything...... In the end, she was angry and buried the dead man opposite Shen Yan's house.

It wasn't the first time she'd done this, and in Neverwinter, she'd made a big fuss at the Temple of the Helmet.

What the? How did you say she got to this point...... Of course, it's because he's super rich!

A carriage of gold coins went down to change the temple's mind, well, it was too good! It just so happens that we need to redecorate it a little bit, and look at the tattered ones as soon as possible; Shen Yan's side, he also wanted to take revenge. A hexagonal Mithril metal rod can be seen stuck in the grave. Shen Yan just wanted to roll up his sleeves and ask, "Eldest sister, how many more do you want to bury?" I'll dig a hole for you! Big sister, where are you going? Sister, don't go......"

Oh, poor man.

"My wife's family is in the metal business in Miraba."

Mirabah is the richest city in the Northlands outside of Waterdeep, far richer than Neverwinter. Neverwinter is nothing more than an ice-free port, and its wealth comes from trade and crafts. And Miraba's wealth comes from metal mining! Cold steel, coal, associated mine mythril, a variety of rare metals...... It feels like an otherworldly version of Anshan and Panzhihua.

There is a mine at home, and I don't panic.

In the Middle Ages, ten ships went out to sea for maritime trade and seven ships returned, and metal mines were the real guarantee of wealth.

Mirabah also has 1,600 dwarven warriors, and a proper Northland bull power (the iron ore in Baldur's Gate was contaminated, which ignited the war between Mirabah and Baldur's Gate). So people are really rich, just think about how terrifying it would be if Bill Gates started throwing money casually.

Pine's wife's approach is a complete failure for her husband, but she is a typical strong woman in business. At least the church and Shen Yan who were humiliated by her were smiling, and they just wanted to develop her into a big customer, and they didn't mean to retaliate at all. In Shen Yan's view, the failure of marriage is likely to be the only failure that the female tycoon has ever experienced, the cowardly will choose to escape, and the strong woman will definitely choose to face it head-on.

There's her failed marriage buried here, and she'll come back sooner or later, buy something, and get a facelift...... Isn't that the business coming?

Although Pine's wife didn't succeed, the money spent earlier was not ineffective at all, just look at Mr. Pine's "lively".

For this wonderful couple, Shen Yan really doesn't want to comment at all, just come often! If you had already said that maybe I could help your husband with it. Isn't it just a man, what a big deal?

This is not a betrayal, you may not believe it, Shen Yan is a feminist.

Mr. Pine is also infinitely embarrassed when he talks about his family. In the eyes of others, he is in the blessing and does not know the blessing, except for a strong wife, everything seems to be very happy, and he can only say that the bubbles on his feet hurt or not, only he knows.

“…… May I ask Mr. Shen Yan, do you have any work to do there? I've been busy since I got married, and now I'm lying down all day, and I'm about to have worms on my body. Living on the opposite side, Shen Yan's changing appearance every day naturally can't hide from his neighbors, and Pyne already knows that Gandalf and Shen Yan are the same person. Moreover, Meng Shenyan specially prepared a preservative for him, so that he did not continue to rot.

"You may not believe it, but I'm a good blacksmith."

A magician who was once a promising magician (otherwise the rich would not have married a daughter) now says that he is a blacksmith...... It's very sad.

"But don't expect me to create any magic weapons, I used to be mainly responsible for making samples for the factory according to her requirements, taking into account the design and manufacturing process, that is, the goods suitable for mass production."

It's even more sad, there is wood and ...... Not only does it force a man to change careers, but it also restricts him from making achievements in his new profession - in the traditional values of Ferren, a forger must create a magic weapon in order to make a name for himself in history, so as to be called a master! Until then, no matter how many weapons are scrapped, it is acceptable. But the female tycoon obviously disdains that, she is in the mass production business, and she needs an obedient mold craftsman instead of a bird master. Dare to scrap it once, she can cook it for you!

Although Mr. Pine said this, Shen Yan thought about it and found that it was purely too much to expect divine weapons in the Winterless Forest, and there were no mines at home, so it would be good to have a good quality weapon.

"Welcome to the Affordable Store." Shen Yan said simply, there is always a kind of pride that the world's top 500 companies have just started. "I'll help you build a house next to the grave as your studio, and tell me if you need anything. That's right......" Shen Yan thought about it and decided to say it directly, "I think your wife is a person who admits death, and she will leave you here when she is discouraged, but sooner or later she will remember the question of 'death is not really over', you have to be mentally prepared."

If you want to escape, as a colleague and boss in the company, I feel like I can help you. ”

"Thank you for your concern." Mr. Pine looked happy. "But no...... You may not know that much about necromantic disciplines. The undead can't get out of where he first woke up, even if she moved my grave. Hehe~ It seems that this time I won. ”

Shen Yan looked at him with pity, your wife has thousands of family fortunes, and she will eat and drink spicy buns in the future, and you have to worry about whether there will be worms on your body even if you are dead...... Where do you see that you've won?

"Mr. Pine, it's inconvenient for everyone to work together by name in the future. For example, my name is Shen Yan, but you can call me by my code name Gandalf. Would you like to give you a code name as well...... What do you think of Ah Q? ”
