Chapter 134: The title of the chief wizard of the kingdom
Under the blue sky, in the guest room of the city hall, a cup of fragrant coffee rests in the corner of the table, and the few aromas dispel the tiredness of the afternoon.
A stack of parchment paper was placed on the table, and Jiang Feng was holding the pen, meticulously writing and drawing on it.
These are the blueprints of the Institute, or the Wizard's Tower.
Although it is only a matter of minutes to complete the design for Zhi Brain, the concept of 3D modeling does not exist in this primitive world, and if you want the aboriginal builder to understand what he wants, you can only restore every detail of the project with a two-dimensional composition.
The strokes are neat and clean, and even without a ruler, the details on the design drawings are accurately restored.
Just as Jiang Feng had just finished drawing a drawing and was about to go get a new parchment, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door, followed by a knock on the door.
Knock Knock......
"Please come in."
"Your Majesty's reply!"
Before anyone entered the house, the sound had already arrived.
Excited, Rembert walked into the room, holding a letter stamped with fire paint in his hand.
There were two copies of the same letter, one addressed to Jiang Feng and one addressed to the city hall. Although he categorically didn't dare to open the proposition sent to Jiang Feng, he had already read it in a hurry when it was sent to the city hall.
Perhaps he was disappointed in the merchant family of Boulder City, or perhaps he felt that the kingdom was no longer able to control this restless free city, or perhaps for other reasons, His Majesty the King actually agreed to canonize the entire Thorn Wasteland in the name of a fief to Jiang Feng as his wizard leader, and bestowed on him with the three-star strength of the title of "Chief Wizard of the Rick Kingdom".
To be honest, Rembert was surprised.
Because of the large area of the Thorn Wasteland, although it is classified as a county due to desolation, its territory is not comparable to many dukedoms and duchies. Coupled with the trade income of Boulder City, it can be said that the royal family has spent a lot of money in order to curry favor with this wizard.
Of course, in addition to surprise, there are more surprises.
Feudal lords are the natural enemies of merchants, but wizards are not.
Having a powerful wizard in the city is like a trigger for those who are thirsty for knowledge or seek the help of mystical powers, which in itself is a huge boost to the city's prosperity.
Not only that, but the security issues that businessmen are most concerned about will also be completely solved. No thieves or bandits dared to run into the wizard's territory to cause trouble, and the security problem in the southern part of the Thorn Wastes has always been a headache for the caravans.
Rembert was the first to hear the news, and without saying a word, he took the letter and came to report the good news in person.
As long as you hold on to the wizard's thigh, the future of the Karel family will be bright.
Jiang Feng waved his hand to let Zhi Brain put away the three-dimensional design drawing, and then said slowly: "Listening to your tone, it should be good news?"
"Of course, Your Majesty has agreed to your request and bestowed upon you the title of 'Chief Wizard of Rick Kingdom', and from now on, as long as your wizard tower is in Rick Kingdom for one day, then this Thorn Wasteland will be your wizard domain."
With a flattering smile on the corner of his mouth, Rembert held a letter with the royal insignia in both hands and delivered it to Jiang Feng.
Jiang Feng reached out to take the letter and tore open the seal.
The contents didn't change his expression in the slightest, everything was as he expected.
Is Rick the Chief Wizard of the Kingdom?
What an interesting title.
However, Jiang Feng didn't care about this, for him, the Thorn Wasteland was the most important thing.
Casually throwing the letter into the space ring, Jiang Feng paused for a moment and continued.
"Mr. Lembert, I hope to meet with the apprentices who are preparing for the interview by this evening."
"We're here to help." Rembert said with a standard aristocratic etiquette.
Jiang Feng nodded, "Go get busy." ”
"Yes, Lord Wizard." Rembert respectfully withdrew.
Watching Rembert leave, Jiang Feng saw that the time was not early, and he was not studying the drawings, so he got up and left the town hall and went to the market closest to the city hall.
Coming to the door of a jewelry store, the proprietor, dressed in an expensive satin robe, enthusiastically ushered him into the house.
"What do you want?"
"I need you to help me make a batch of bracelets," took out a piece of parchment from the space ring, Jiang Feng handed it to him, "According to the above requirements, make me a hundred pieces of the same, the sooner the better." ”
Seeing Jiang Feng's space ring, the boss immediately guessed the identity of this person, and he didn't dare to slack off, so he hurriedly took the parchment.
I saw two silver rings with the same shape and different letters engraved on the parchment. Caliber, material amount, size and other details have been marked in detail, and you only need to type it out according to the requirements, which is not difficult at all.
"No problem, if you ask for it quickly, we can make a mold, but then the jewelry will be ...... beautiful"
"Just press the fastest," after a pause, Jiang Feng continued, "In addition, you can keep the mold, I may come here again in the future." ”
"Yes, sir." The boss said respectfully.
Too lazy to make another trip, Jiang Feng directly paid the payment with silver coins, and instructed the boss to send the goods directly to the city hall after he was done.
Regarding the quality of the finished product, Jiang Feng was not worried at all.
Dare to play tricks with wizards on this, unless you are tired of it.
……
After returning to the town hall, Rembert was already waiting for him at the door, and the news that the wizard was going to take in an apprentice had already spread among the high society of Boulder City. Now as soon as they heard that Jiang Feng had been canonized as the "Chief Wizard of the Kingdom", those merchant families, large and small, had been waiting for this day with anticipation.
As soon as I heard that the wizard was going to meet with the applicants first, all those who had children under the age of twelve in the family, whether direct or collateral, racked their brains and stuffed them into the town hall. The town hall, which was originally spacious enough to accommodate 500 people at the same time, was so crowded that the staff in the hall had to move their work to the outside.
Coming forward, Rembert saluted respectfully and said, "Great and wise wizard, all the applicants are inside, and there may be a lot of people...... Need me to arrange another location for them to meet you in batches? ”
"It's good to do it in batches as you say. You have all of them register their names on the sheepskins, and then they are numbered and grouped into groups of about 50 people, which is more efficient. Jiang Feng thought for a while and said.
Rembert nodded, and hurried to comply.
Jiang Feng only took a cursory look outside, and most of the faces were under the age of twelve. Some of them are sent at the age of six or seven and must be brushed off, and enlightenment education is the responsibility of their parents. There are also children who are already fifteen years old and have been contaminated with too many aristocratic and political habits, and are not suitable for studying in graduate schools.
All he needs is a group of children who can read and write, can do simple calculations, and have the ability to absorb knowledge, not a group of aristocratic ladies or sons who are practicing power and intrigue in his laboratory.
For him, those so-called "smart people" are not yet useful to a single Samon.
