"Hello, I'm Martin, the Minister in charge of the Academy's Finance."

Facing the personable man with glasses, John also reached out to shake his hand.

Just as John was about to introduce himself, Martin smiled.

"No, Mr. John, I think everyone in the academy knows your name."

John smiled embarrassedly, Nima, if you want to explain, you can't give it yet, even if you know, you can't do this, what should you say, it's rude!

"Well, let's get down to business, can we, Mr. John?"

With John's permission, Martin, who was sitting across from the café, took out a report from his purse and pushed it in front of John.

"This is a list of nobles who used to fund the maintenance of our academy's dueling arena decades ago, the amount is from the largest to the smallest, the first row is the royal family who gave the most money, and your task is to convince them.

In the past, when this kind of thing happened, it was our Ministry of Finance that stepped in, but this is the order of the dean, and I can't give you substantial help. ”

John glanced at it silently, thinking that the royal family was so rich, he actually gave hundreds of thousands of gold coins, which was really rich, and said prevaricatingly: "Since you did it before, why don't you leave it to you professionals to deal with?" How can someone like me compare to you professionals? ”

Martin smiled.

"Don't dare, we really shouldn't disobey the dean's order, and the cause of this matter is not because of you, isn't it what you should do to take responsibility for your own affairs? Besides, it is already a good thing that you are not named to compensate in person. ”

John can see one thing clearly, this smiling man definitely doesn't plan to help himself, that damn stinky old man!

Well, what the smiling man said also has a certain truth, that stinky old man doesn't let himself lose money directly is a big favor, John doesn't plan to be dead, he also has certain principles in life.

"Wait a minute, Mr. John, if you're willing to help us with something, I might as well help you."

As he left, Martin pushed his reflective eyes and said mysteriously.

"What about the Dean's orders?"

"Hehe, if you don't say it, I won't say it, who knows?"

Martin's smile was filled with so much meaning that even John shuddered, the smiling man in front of him was not an easy character to deal with, which reminded him of those sinister people who were very scheming.

"But that's not good."

I always feel that I still don't feel at ease, John thinks it's better to push it away, what he hates most is this kind of scheming person, if he is caught, the gain outweighs the loss.

"Looking at Mr. John, you're actually very reluctant to do such a troublesome thing, right?

Besides, I'm not a suspicious person, and my credibility in the academy is the first, so please leave it to me with confidence. ”

The words were astonishing, and Martin seemed to be able to read through what John was thinking, and he said step by step.

“……… All right.

But let me ask you what you asked me to do, and I'll tell you first, I won't help you with murder and arson.

There is also a usurpation of power. ”

Martin felt the urge to fall to the ground, he lifted his glasses that were slightly shocked and slid down, and said with a wry smile: "Do you have any misunderstanding about me, I am not the kind of person you imagined, I am a good person." ”

"Good guys? Well, you're a good person. ”

John's tone was perfunctory, and it seemed that he didn't believe it at all.

Martin didn't want to talk about this headache, so he got to the point, looked around, and cautiously leaned into John's ear and whispered, "Okay, I actually want to ask you for something, this matter is actually like this........."

………

The Far Area Traders Chamber of Commerce, Myccoasria, a chamber of commerce that deals in seafood products from the West Sea Country, is still alive and well because of the large-scale development and utilization of insurance spells, no matter whether it is a week or a month.

Nowadays, one of the Mycian branches is located in the commercial street of the land of magic, providing seafood for the major colleges is their daily job, students want to eat and drink well, they are indispensable, and because they live deep inland, the price of seafood is much more expensive than that of coastal countries, probably a fat big silver-backed fish can be compared to ten, the price is very scary, if it is not for most of the nobles in the college, many students can afford to eat, and the finance department of the college in charge of funds will not care so much.

But the problem is that the price of these seafood, the price was acceptable in the past, and the financial aspect was acceptable, but unfortunately the price of seafood has soared in these days, and Martin's Ministry of Finance has also communicated with them, and the answer is that there is a little problem on the other side of the sea.

Until now, Martin has gradually understood why they want to increase the price, it turns out that they think that the students in the academy are all nobles, and it doesn't matter what the price is, anyway, they all give it, so the price is getting more and more, and there are more and more reasons, in short, they are greedy for money.

This group of greedy chambers of commerce are not stupid, and the price added is really not much for the students of the nobility, after becoming a mage, this amount of money is not to mention, even if they know that the price of seafood has become more, the students who are immersed in the truth of magic will only say "Oh, I see", money is just a means for mages to make them stronger.

It is this point that indulges them, and they have become exploiters who don't talk about their backaches, and if they have money, do they have to let them earn it? After the persuasion failed, in order to protect the students' money, the Ministry of Finance decided to use force to regain their self-confidence and maintain peace.

It's a pity that the Ministry of Finance is all people who are interested in money, and they really don't dare to compliment it in terms of combat effectiveness, and the academy doesn't allow students to stir up trouble without permission, for the academy, money is really just a unit, and the truth of magic is what they want all their lives, and these guys from the Ministry of Finance are crooked ways for them.

Don't love spells? Then you go to a fart spelling academy, John really wants to spit on Martin and them.

I always feel that Martin asked him to do this, which implies an unknown purpose, forget it, I promised it, and I can't run back directly if I want to regret it, this guy is so scheming.

Thinking about these things, John looked at Martin, who was walking side by side with him with a light smile on his face.

Their current destination was to go to the shopping street, the Mycco-Assyria Chamber of Commerce, accompanied not only by him and Martin, but also by a girl who at first glance looked a bit like a secretary.
