A week after returning to Port Sette, Leo could feel that all the eyes and ears around him were gone, which made him press down on the idea that he was going to take a little bit of action and wait for the rest of his life.

In fact, from the day after he returned, he had already felt that there were a lot of spies around his apartment, and from the conversations and conflicts of those spies, he knew that these spies were all powerful people in Port Set, some of them were just curious about Leo, a cash-rich upstart in the port city, but more because of the hiring of Sanjes, they were all thinking about whether to deal with Leo, and whether they would get the Duke of Buckingham's approval after dealing with Leo.

Originally, Leo thought that these people would do it quickly, but he also decided that as long as these people did it, he would fight back, and he would fight back in the most drastic way to solve the matter completely.

But what he didn't expect was that those people never planned to do anything, but just arranged all kinds of eyes and ears around Leo, and even blatantly sent some clumsy monitors, as if they wanted Leo to know that someone was spying on him.

Leo didn't like the feeling of being watched, and he thought that he would find a time to visit the homes of the controllers behind these eyes and ears to solve the matter once and for all, but these people retreated on their own initiative.

This situation reminded Leo of the Duke of Buckingham, it seems that only the Duke of Buckingham can influence so many powerful people in Port Set, which also makes him feel that it will not be long before he meets the Duke of Buckingham, the most powerful magnate in the Kingdom of England.

Nelson and Catherine had returned two days earlier, and they had received a telegram from Jason before they returned, knowing that Leo had returned to Port Sette, so they came to Leo's apartment to meet Leo as soon as they returned.

Compared with Jason, Leo and Nelson's relationship is not so deep, they are just good friends, and after so many years, the relationship between the two has cooled down a lot, so the two did not seem too enthusiastic when they met, but just talked to each other about their experiences over the years.

Because of his years as a member of the city council, Nelson's speech and demeanor have changed greatly from the past, and he is no longer a simple doctor, but more like a politician, and after learning that Leo still has a lot of money on hand, he invited Leo to join some of the business plans he runs.

Leo didn't think much about Nielsen's change, and in his opinion, people like Jason have changed after a few years, let alone Nelson, so he doesn't feel any regrets.

Compared to Nelson, Catherine is still the same, she is still the same Dr. Catherine in the cage city, and when chatting, she talks more about her thoughts on the development of nursing school.

In the conversation with the Nelsons, Leo never heard anything about the Royal Academy of Medicine of the Kingdom of England from the two of them, but it was not difficult to see from their relaxed expressions that the matter of the medical school should have been raised.

After that, the Nelson couple put Leo several times in succession, these times mainly Nielsen introduced his business plan and some plan materials, all of which were purely business, and this kind of businesslike approach was very much in line with Leo's mind, so he also took this business plan seriously, and helped Nielsen solve some loopholes in the plan, and invested in some of them.

The investment in Nielsen's business plan is only one of the dozen or so investments he has made in the past week, and even if he invests so much, he still has hundreds of thousands of cash on him, and even if those investments are lost, so much money can still support him to live a very luxurious life.

It's just that the dozen or so investments he made were all excellent assets with great potential that he carefully selected, including fleets, medicines, industries, etc., and the reason why he made these investments was not simply to make money, but more importantly, to facilitate him to obtain the medicinal materials needed for alchemy, the materials needed to make mechanical tools, and so on.

For example, there are three state-of-the-art pharmaceutical manufacturing factories in his investment, and all three factories have the support of the medical school behind them, just because the medical school has handed over the power in their hands under the blow of the Kingdom of England, and the person who took over the medical school does not pay attention to the three pharmaceutical production factories, so they put them up for sale.

Although the world of Velon, driven by medical schools, has begun to accept over-the-counter medicines, and is highly regarded by the common people because of their low prices, the kind of over-the-counter medicines stuffed with cheap bottles is not at all credible in the minds of the relatively wealthy middle class and the really wealthy, who usually have their own personal doctors and private clinics, and the medicines they need to treat their diseases are prepared individually according to the individual situation.

It is precisely because of this mentality that the three pharmaceutical manufacturing factories of the medical school were ignored for most of the year after they were listed, and finally Leo built a cheap one.

After Leo acquired the three pharmaceutical factories, he did not integrate them together, but continued to let the original team of the factories continue to work and make some pills for the general public, but he also provided the technical department of each factory with a modified prescription, which were insect repellent, seasickness medicine, and ordinary pick-me-me-ups.

Leo, who has a very high level of alchemy, wants to improve these three medicines very simply, and the drugs made from these three prescriptions are much better than the original prescriptions, and because the production process is reduced, and the medicinal materials used are also reduced, the cost has been reduced a lot, and the price is low enough for the poor people in the slums to be able to afford it.

Therefore, in less than two days after the factory was opened, these three pharmaceutical factories accounted for nearly sixty percent of the market share related to these three drugs in the port of Scitech, and the share of this share is still increasing, and with the strength of several merchant ships loaded with similar drugs, it is believed that the share of the three types of drugs in other countries will increase.

However, the main task of these three medicine factories is not to produce cheap and commonly used medicines and occupy the market share of the common people's medicines, but to use the medicinal materials they have developed over the years to collect all kinds of materials for the alchemy of wizards for Leo.

In addition to these three pharmaceutical companies in his hands, there were six or seven machine factories in which he had a stake, and he also provided some machine manufacturing drawings and parts manufacturing processes to these machine factories to improve the strength of the factories and make some parts for the machinery for him.

It's just that, just as he expected, these mechanism parts made in the Velen World are far from being comparable to those made in Hushang Town in the Dream World in terms of energy efficiency, and the power used to make mechanical mechanisms is much smaller, and they can only be used with various rune magic arrays, but the power is still amazing, and several times it has blown up a big hole in his laboratory inlaid with steel plates.

It has to be said that Sanjes's ability to do things is very good, after Leo made a request for the laboratory, the next day he found a suitable construction company to renovate the apartment building, and under the supervision of money, it took only three days to complete the renovation of the entire apartment. In addition to converting the room above the study into a closed chamber dedicated to the study of witchcraft, three basements were dug into the basement of the apartment, and steel plates were inlaid according to Leo's requirements to serve as a workshop for alchemy and machine building.

In addition, because of some special requests from Leo, Sanjes also helped Leo buy some things that could not be bought in ordinary stores, such as this very complete and professional set of workbenches and tools that wizards use for alchemy and medicine in Leo's hands now.

"Where did you buy this?" Leo looked at Sanjes curiously, looking at the workbench and tools in front of him.

Originally, he just wanted Sanjes to find construction workers to repair the steel plates in the laboratory for him, but he didn't expect Sanjes to not only find workers, but also bring a set of wizard workbenches and rune inscription tools that he didn't expect.

This set of alchemy workbenches and rune inscription tools is not antique, and it is newly made, and the material itself is steel bone armor, and there are mechanical controls to adjust the workbench, and the maker has also engraved his own trademark symbol on the workbench, it seems that this workbench is mass-produced.

After seeing this workbench and tools, Leo couldn't help but suspect that he had left the world of Veron not for half a year, but for decades, hundreds of years, and the wizards who had been so rare that they could only hide in the shadows had begun to stand on the bright side, set up shops, and build factories.

"Black market. Sanjes replied simply.

"Do you know where the black market in Port Set is?" Leo was stunned, but soon thought of Sanjes's past identity, and said to himself: "Of course, of course you know where the black market is, after all, you are next to the Duke of Buckingham, you must have seen a lot of magical people and things, no wonder when I asked you to find someone to renovate the house, you just asked my requirements a little, and you were able to renovate the house so much to my heart, it seems that you have had similar experience before." ”

Sanjes looked at Leo expressionlessly and said, "Sir, you don't have to be tempted, I won't tell you about His Royal Highness the Duke." ”

"Huh!" Leo smiled awkwardly.

In fact, more than once in the past few days, he had tried to extract something about the Duke of Buckingham from Sanjess by other means. Originally, he was not interested in the details of the Duke of Buckingham, but when he learned that the Duke of Buckingham could influence the vast majority of the magnates in Port Sett so easily, the mentality of taking precautions made him always subconsciously want to collect some things about the Duke of Buckingham, so as to understand the Duke of Buckingham, so that he could make correct judgments and decisions in time if there was any confrontation in the future.

Although Sanjes behaved very professionally and never mentioned anything about the Duke of Buckingham's palace, under Leo's guidance, some of Sanjes's behaviors still revealed a lot of secrets about the Duke of Buckingham.

For example, the Duke of Buckingham also has extraordinary influence in the underground world of Velon, and in his hands, he may have a powerful team composed of dependents and extraordinary humans, and the Duke of Buckingham himself is probably not an ordinary person, he is likely to be the family of some gods, or he may be a strong man with extraordinary power like a wizard.

The reason for this conclusion is that there are some clues in the information that Leo has gathered so far, but he will be sure that this is due to a piece of information that Sanjes has inadvertently revealed.

"If you have nothing else to do, then I will go down and arrange for the new servants and maids. Sanjes didn't want to stay with Leo because he was worried that he would reveal something he shouldn't have said under Leo's deliberate guidance, so he would speak as little as possible and wouldn't say a word of nonsense.

"Can you tell me where the black market is?" Leo asked, adding, "If this matter involves the Duke of Buckingham's secret, there is no need to tell it." ”

Sanjes was silent for a moment, as if he wanted to tell if the location of the black market would reveal some information related to the Duke of Buckingham, and after repeated confirmation, he found that the location of the black market would not have any impact on the Duke of Buckingham, so he quickly took out a pen and paper, wrote an address and the method of passing through the entrance on the paper, handed it to Leo, and then turned around and left the basement.

Leo looked at the note in his hand, frowned, and said to himself, "Garden cemetery? ”

The early inhabitants of Port Set were Mona people who were born and raised in the Inger Islands, they were actually the descendants of fugitive slaves from the French Empire a long time ago, after escaping to the Inger Islands, they gradually developed, formed a large and small tribe, and created a funeral ritual that was completely different from the French Empire, the original name of this ritual is no longer remembered, and later generations only remember the name given to this ritual by a poet in the past, which is the Garden Cemetery.

The Mona people believed that their loved ones would not disappear after death, but would remain next to their graves in the form of spirits for a long time, so the Mona people simply transformed their cemeteries into gardens, and the tombs where the bodies were buried were placed in the excavated underground burial chambers, usually one burial chamber per family, and arranged for someone to add the fish oil needed for the lamps in the burial chamber.

Normally during the day, the burial chamber is not opened, and no one enters except the tomb keeper, but at night, people can enter the burial chamber to visit their relatives and talk to the spirits of their loved ones, because this activity only occurs at night, and those who enter the burial chamber carry two oil lamps, and they appear in groups, so those who see this scene for the first time will think that they are performing some kind of mysterious religious ceremony.

With the landing of the royal family in the Archipelago and the conquest of the archipelago, the Mona people gradually integrated into the new English people who moved here from France, and the same funerary ritual of the garden cemetery was also integrated into the tombs of the Inge people, and became an important national custom.
