Chapter 120: Perfection (I)
and so on.
At this time, the cook and maid in the manor were already very busy, and they prepared new dishes and brought them to them.
And arrange for the knight's attendants to also dine in the side hall.
The dishes were all right, and Sir and the Sorcerer, who were also hungry at this time, sat down to eat and drink, but said little, so that the feast proceeded quickly, and after half an hour, it was over.
After the dinner, the three of them moved to the small living room and served fruit tea, and it was already dark at this time, so naturally they would not rush back to the city overnight.
Originally, at this time, there was already a game similar to playing cards, but as soon as it was proposed, the magician laughed: "Hamblin. Mr. Fix, although you are already a qualified apprentice in magic, you obviously lack some common sense, playing cards is a very good game, but magicians never get involved, do you know why? ”
Fang Xin was stunned and muttered, "Magic? ”
"Exactly, the magician has too many means to know what the opponent's hole cards are, so no one will play cards with the magician, unless the magician wants to make some money, but why bother, the magician can get money anywhere, for example, you, you are just a magic apprentice, in fact, you can already make some potions to sell, not to get rich, but survival is not a problem." Xia Xi. So Nordb said.
"Oh, I really don't understand, please give me some advice." Fang Xin said while drinking tea.
"Xia Xi. Lord Nordeb, you are already a level 8 mage, Hamblin, you should be apprenticed, and in the Magic Guild, you also need an introducer. Jazz said.
"Oh, yes, please allow me to make a confession, I was originally a first mate, and recently became a knight, but I don't know anything about the habits and lifestyles of magicians, so please be a hamblin in magic. Introduce the Fakes! Fang Xin specially said by this name.
For a genius who can perform level 0 magic after a month of self-study, in most cases, anyone will be recruited, therefore, Xia Xi. Nordeb was very happy and agreed, and the relationship between the two was suddenly different.
"Actually, Hamblin, I wanted you to run our fleet, but you've become an apprentice in magic, and you've shown so much talent, it's a waste to be a captain." Jazz said helplessly.
"My dear sir, whatever I become, I will never forget your grace in this life." Fang Xin said: "If you have any sends, try to say it, I have been at sea for six years before, and I have many friends and channels, these things, I will not waste much time." ”
"As for the specific captain, as long as it is arranged, there will always be someone who can complete it."
"Oh, Hamblin, I am very pleased with your words." Sir said in admiration, "You already know that I have been given the position of personal advisor to the Earl of Habida. ”
"Then in the future, I will go to Earl Hepida's Ebiburg, that manor, and I own 5 shares of the Rollin Chamber of Commerce, even if I don't do anything every year, I can bring myself a dividend of 5,000 gold lake, which is also quite good, but Vincent. Sir Manley, however, wanted me and him to use the channels of the Chamber of Commerce to organise sea shipping together, and I agreed. ”
"Vincent. Sir Manley? ”
"Well, a non-hereditary lifelong nobleman, he was originally a merchant, and it is said that he spent money and bought it from the king." Sir shrugged his shoulders and said, "But he has quite a bit of money. ”
"So, sir, what do you hope for?" Fang Xin said.
"I have a large three-masted schooner that can carry 150 tons of cargo and can accommodate a crew of 20 people, and I hope that this ship can bring me a profit of 2,000 gold lake a year."
Of course, Fang Xin's body was familiar with shipping, and knew that the value of this ship was around 10,000 gold lake, and the profit he hoped to obtain was also within the allowable range, so he immediately said: "Sir, you can leave this matter to me, and I will give you 2,000 gold lake profits every year." ”
"Oh, Hamblin, I don't want to delay your time studying magic." Jazz said.
"Sir, you can rest assured that even if Hamblin enters the Magicians' Guild, he must first make up for the basic knowledge of magic, which may take two years, and the growth of magicians is accumulated by money, and learning and experimentation will consume a lot of money, so it is necessary for Hambling to have a source of funds for a long time, until he can reach level 5." Xia Xi. But Nordeb said so.
"Oh, that's right, I can leave this channel to you to deal with, you only need to pay 2,000 gold lake a year, and all the excess money is handled by yourself." Jazz thought for a moment and spoke.
"Yes, thank you very much, sir, for me with Hambling. In the name of Fix, I will repay you with the loyalty of this life. Fang Xin cleverly added the name and the time sentence.
Since there was no entertainment, after drinking tea, the two honorable gentlemen went to sleep, Fang Xin returned to the room, but did not sleep, he called Luo Li and Poulny, and then began to write the plan.
"In the territory, there is still some vacant land that has not been developed, and I plan to sort out the territory and plant some cash crops that can be grown on the vacant land."
"My lord, what is a cash crop?" Poolie asked, a little confused.
"Oh, it's spices, coffee, cocoa, tea, and other plants that are sold for money, not as simple food." Fang Xin explained: "This part is still handled by the steward Balu, I believe he can have his own proper arrangements for the crops and the people." ”
"Yes, sir." Poolie wrote down the phrase.
"Secondly, I will put a fence around the house and build a garden, and although it is a stone house, many places still need to be renovated and polished." Fang Xin has always preferred a relatively luxurious residential environment: "For specific money, I will set a standard every year, hire the people to do it, and pay salaries." ”
"Yes, my lord, it's been recorded."
"I already have a flat-bottomed boat, this boat can sail in the river, but it is enough to settle the trade between our territory and the city, well, Tavern is in charge, I will recruit some more people, five soldiers in the territory will be enough." Fang Xin said thoughtfully.
Originally, he appointed Tavern as the captain of the guard, and the soldiers on the island were full, but now the plan is not as fast as the change, and those soldiers are more loyal and reliable, so it is natural to use the knife edge - it is only right to supplement the new trade routes.
As for the specific five soldiers, naturally recruiting people that Hamblin was originally familiar with, he thought about it, and pronounced some names, which were similar to Motzt and Lawson that he had met last time.
Motzett wanted to add to the route, and as for Lawson, he was tired of sailing, so he must be very willing to be a freeman and a soldier in the territory.
Naturally, Pooli recorded these instructions one by one.
After discussing it somewhat, Fang Xin gave Pooly 200 gold lake into the account, although this amount is relatively large, but it will not arouse suspicion, and it is enough to operate in the territory.
When it was finished, Fang Xin said: "Poolie, I will give you ten acres of land, and you will take your mother and brother to my territory, so that you will become a free citizen in the territory." ”
"Yes, thank you, I will serve you with all my heart." Purney said overjoyed.
It wasn't too early, Fang Xin asked her to retreat, but Luo Li stayed, Fang Xin looked up, and saw that she was already stronger than the last time he saw her, so he asked, "Luo Li, what have you studied recently?" ”
"My lord, I've learned the basics of pacing and swordsmanship, and I'm reading." Luo Li said reportively.
"How's the study going?"
"I can already recite the first two volumes of The Sixth Kingdom." Luo Li thought for a moment and said.
In the end, she is worthy of a person with a latent bloodline, and when her profession in this world reaches level five or above in some aspects, the latent bloodline will officially awaken, but now she has seen her potential.
It's just that I don't know what power she's inherited.
"In this year, you try to exercise your body, without a healthy body, everything is false, well, as long as you meet the standards of a first-level warrior, you can not continue to exercise, you can also choose magic." Luo Li was very interested in magic, and Fang Xin had known that whenever Fang Xin experimented, her eyes lit up.
"Yes, my lord, I will always follow you." Luo Li said happily.
Hearing this, Fang's confidence moved, and he felt that he should transform all Luo Li that belonged to him to some extent-he couldn't help but think of the "perfect" ability he had obtained in Yu Ruyi.
Of course, "perfection" only refers to a certain degree of evolution and perfection, but for the delicious little Lori, shouldn't it be to improve her appearance and figure, and give a certain subtle influence?
This conclusion was clear, and Fang Xin said again: "Luo Li, be good, come here, close your eyes." ”
As she spoke, a little golden flame had been lit on her fingertips, and the light illuminated her slightly raised chest.
