Bay Village, first floor of a small building behind the barracks

By this time, all the merchants had left Baytown, and Seta sat in the first place, listening carefully to the report of the acting mayor of Baytown on the details of yesterday's negotiations;

Acting Mayor Hebry was dressed neatly and neatly, stood respectfully and solemnly at the side, and said clearly:

"Sir, this time it's just a merchant from within Maple Leaf County, it's the same thing we expected"

"The merchants in the other counties either haven't received the news yet, or they don't think our presence will affect them, so they haven't sent anyone over."

Seta listened and nodded slightly:

Putting aside those who did not receive the news, only those merchants who received the news but did not come are because the noble territories of this world are actually relatively closed to each other;

Territories can be seen as independent states, and kingdoms are nothing more than an alliance of these nations!

Of course, there is a difference between kingdoms and alliances, so let's not talk about them for now;

Naturally, there are checkpoints between each province, and the same county is better, and the toll is not too outrageous, but between two different counties, the high cost may make you doubt your life!

Have you ever seen a half-tax rate on tolls?

Seta smiled and waved her hand for Highbury to continue;

Highbury bowed slightly, and said:

"Yesterday's main point of contention was the market share of the salt we produce in the county, because the original salt market structure was fixed, but because we suddenly joined in, the original structure was suddenly broken."

"Yesterday's one-day negotiation re-divided this structure!"

"According to the results of the negotiations, Your Excellency the Interior Officer and I have estimated that Bay Town will be profitable this month, and it is expected to provide 20 gold coins of income for the territory!"

After saying these words, Highbury took a step back slightly and stood to the side, looking very decent. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Previously, due to some fortunate practices, he had lost his extremely important position as castle steward, and now that he had finally been activated again, Highbury naturally cherished this opportunity very much;

In yesterday's negotiations, he struggled to finally get a relatively superior result;

Otherwise, how could a newly established town immediately reach the level of 20 gold coins per month?

And Muen Manor is a high-quality manor accumulated over several generations, how long has Bay Town been?!

Seta was slightly surprised when she heard this, and turned her head to look at George, the Interior Minister, who naturally understood what his lord meant, so he stepped forward and bowed and said:

"Sir, it is true"

Laughing, Seta stood up and patted Highbury on the shoulder:

"Highbury, you're doing a good job, and I'm relieved to hand over Baytown to you!"

Highbury says:

"It's all what I'm supposed to do, Sir!"

Seta says:

"Don't be modest, if you do well, you will naturally be rewarded" After a slight pause, he said:

"From now on, you can get rid of the word agent! Congratulations, my mayor! I'm looking forward to what you're going to do next!"

Highbury's heart was excited! He quickly bowed down and said:

"Yes, Sir!"

"Highbury must be serious!"

Seta smiled and nodded:

"Good!"

。。。。。。

Send two subordinates out to work, and if Bay Town is to develop, it will still need to buy slaves, and George and Highbury still have a lot to do;

Therefore, as I said before, George's promise to return to the castle at this time naturally came to naught;

After all, Baytown, which can produce 20 gold coins per month, is obviously more important than anything else, and it's just the beginning, and there's still a lot of room for improvement!

The territory was developing according to its own plan, which made Seta happy, and the fact that he had to eat an extra deer leg for lunch than usual made the barracks cook excited:

Are you going to get the lord's weight and start your glorious life?! The position of the castle chef beckons to you!

Naturally, Seta doesn't know the jumbled thoughts in the chef's mind;

In the afternoon, Seta was resting on the first floor, and the guards came to say:

"Sir, Mr. Karakury, who was here last time, is here again and wants to see you!"

Seta was overjoyed, stood up and said:

"Take me there!"

"Yes, Sir!"

In the flower garden outside the small building, Seta saw Karakuri again, this time he was wearing a cyan robe, Seta walked over quickly and hugged him slightly, then let go, and said happily:

"Mr. Karakury, I am very happy to see you again!"

"Let's go, let's go inside and say"

Karakuri also smiled and said:

"Me too, Lord Sir!"

Walk quickly to the small building, and sit down;

Without waiting for Seta to speak, Karakuri took out a thick book, the cover of which was dark gray with mysterious runes on it;

The young mage apprentice smiled slightly:

"Dear Sir, this is what I said last time about the Enlightenment of the Mage" hands out:

"Fortunately, I didn't lose my life!"

Seta took the thick book in surprise, half a finger thick, stroked the delicate cover slightly, and said happily:

"Thank you so much, Mr. Karakury!"

"Opened the door to learning magic for our family! Thank you very much!"

Karakuri first nodded, then shook his head with a slightly wry smile:

"Dear Sir, it takes talent to become a mage, and there may not be one suitable one out of a thousand, so don't expect too much"

"You know, even archmages can't guarantee that their descendants are suitable for studying magic!"

Naturally, Seta wouldn't say that he was a divine creature and that learning magic was fine, so he nodded his head in gratitude and took out another chest:

"Mr. Karakuri, here's 100 gold coins and 50 pearls."

"It's the Finney family's sponsorship of your study of magic"

Karakuri smiled and accepted it, if it weren't for this, he wouldn't necessarily come back, but the unexpectedly large reward also made him slightly embarrassed;

After thinking about it, he took out a black iron badge, handed it out and said:

"This is the badge of the Mage's House, and there is a hidden message inside"

"If one of your descendants has completed the Spell Initiation and awakened the source of their spells, they can get the information inside, which is the location of the Maple Leaf County Mage's House" paused:

"When the time comes, he can go directly to the Mage's House to complete the registration of the mage, and he can get basic support."

"After that, there will be a special explanation from the Mage's House, so I don't need to say more."

Seta carefully took the black badge and said sincerely:

"Thank you very much!"

"The Feeney family will not forget your kindness!"

Although it was at a relatively large monetary cost that I paid to obtain these things, it is still the same sentence, if there is no way, even if you want to spend money in exchange, you can't do it!

Therefore, the mage apprentice in front of him can indeed be said to be his own nobleman;

Hearing this, Karakuri smiled slightly, but did not take it seriously, stood up and said:

"I've been paid well"

"I'm going to prepare for the promotion of the official mage, so I'm going back now, and I hope to have the opportunity to see you again in the future!"

Seta also stood up:

"Although I don't know about the promotion to mage, I wish you success!"

"Thank you!"

The mage's apprentice was gone, and Setta, who had nothing else to do with Baytown, left early the next morning, and returned to the castle at noon on the third day;

Castle minus 1 floor, secret room

Surrounded by tightly knit granite boulders, Seta tried, and if he didn't use his fighting spirit, he could only cut off a thin piece with his long sword;

The iron door of the secret room is also palm-thick, which is locked from the inside and cannot be opened from the outside;

It's very safe!

Confirming that nothing was missing, Seta took out a thick book, and on the dark gray cover, there were dark golden runes, which had a mysterious taste;

Gently stroking the delicate cover, Seta's eyes were full of golden brilliance, and the indifferent and supreme aura appeared slightly:

From the perspective of divinity, the book in his hand completely changed, and a faint dark aura shrouded the thick book!

In an instant, the gold in his eyes disappeared, and he muttered:

"It seems to be true!"

Naturally, he doesn't believe what people say, he must have his own verification method, and the magic enlightenment book in front of him should be a book with real power, because only objects with power will have aura from the perspective of divinity.

Don't think about it anymore, take a deep breath, and the world of legal power will unfold in your own hands:

"What is the principle of the spells of this world?"

With a rub of my fingers, I turned the first page:

"Wisdom gives us strength!"
