When Sheng Xuan gritted his teeth and responded to this number, Julio's face couldn't help but appear a little ruddy, and then he took out a pen and paper and quickly wrote down an agreement, looking at the numbers on the agreement, Sheng Xuan's heart seemed to be staked on a 10,000-pound boulder, this was a complete gamble, but he had no way out.

After signing the agreement, Julio carefully put it away close to his body, and then shouted out the door, "Come on, serve the wine, bring me the best wine, I want to have a few drinks with this distinguished guest." ”

The wine was so bitter in his mouth, just like Sheng Xuan's mood at the moment, he couldn't turn back, and he said fiercely in his heart, "Even if you fight for your life, you have to extinguish all those damn flames." Then he poured a full glass into his mouth as soon as he tilted his head, and the wine ran through his throat like red-hot coals, but he felt a little happy.

The wine continued until dinnertime, and Julio was already drunk at this time, apparently the stone that had been pressed on his chest for so many days was now handed over to Sheng Xuan, and he did not forget to repeat the sentence as he continued to toast, "You must keep the contract, or I will be severely punished by the military order." ”

The sumptuous dinner party had been set on the table, and Reg walked in with a shy Josephine, Julio looked at him with drunken eyes, and there was a trace of murder in his eyes, and then a smiling face appeared, beckoned to him, and patted the chair next to him vigorously, "My good brother, maybe this title will be changed in the future, come and sit down and have a few drinks with me." ”

When the two of them sat down, the butler hurriedly arranged the dishes for them, Julio looked at the busy butler and shouted, "You also sit down, today the Grand Duke is happy, it can be said that it is a double happiness, not only the armament required above has been settled, but also my good niece Josephine has finally found Ruyi Langjun, you can also drink today, we will not get drunk and return." ”

Where did the housekeeper dare to sit, while serving a bowl of cheese soup to the Grand Duke, he whispered, "The Grand Duke, you are drunk, let's drink some soup first." Today, Grand Duke Ben only drinks wine and does not drink soup. ”

Julio is really drunk? Lying on the soft bed, Sheng Xuan couldn't sleep, he felt that the Grand Duke's alcohol consumption would not be so bad, because although his speech was already vague, but the little cold star in his eyes never dissipated, but when he looked at Regg, it made people feel even colder, and what made Sheng Xuan never mind was the cultivation of this Grand Duke, he hid secrets that he couldn't see, but what did he do all this for? Could it be that the Grand Duke's scheming has reached an elusive level? Maybe it's really people who get drunk on happy occasions.

And at this moment, Julio is in a secret room in the depths of his mansion, and there are several henchmen standing below, including Governor Loren, these days, the Grand Duke's henchmen have been living in the mansion, constantly discussing how to complete the harsh military order, and now it is time to discuss this matter, "You can take a look, I have made an agreement with someone to use 100,000 swords, what do you think about this?"

The following people read it one by one, and returned the agreement to him respectfully, but no one was willing to speak first, Julio looked at it and couldn't help frowning slightly, "Why don't you want to speak?" Okay, then I'll tell you." ”

As he spoke, he picked up the paper agreement and shook it at a few people, "I want you to spread the news as quickly as possible, and collect grain and grass at high prices in various places, I want you to bring five million catties within three days, this is only the first batch, and then provide 50 million catties every month until it is enough for one billion." ”

This sentence was like a meteorite falling into the sea from outside the sky, which immediately caused an uproar, "A billion catties?" Someone suddenly showed a shocked look, but saw Julio slam the paper agreement on the table hard, "What? Produced by a dwarven craftsman, isn't the weapon mixed with pure Mithril worth this amount?"

The man hurriedly explained, "I don't mean anything else, Grand Duke, but this billion is too huge, and even if we collect all the farmers' barns, I'm afraid it will be difficult to make up this number." ”

Loren smiled slightly, but did not speak, but everyone's expressions could not escape Julio's eyes, "My dear Governor Loren, what do you think about this matter?" The Grand Duke is wise, not so much that you are rushing to produce equipment and complete the task of increasing the number of troops in the empire, it is better to say that you are building momentum and finding a reason for this task that cannot be completed at all, if these people really complete the agreement, then we can send troops on time, if the responsibility is not completed, it is completely theirs, although we have the responsibility of supervising the unfavorable crime, but compared with the punishment of the military order, it can be completely ignored, the imperial decree is still very fair, with this agreement, we will not be held too responsible, but only the wisdom of the Grand Duke can use him thoroughly。 ”

Hearing this, Julio's pupils suddenly shrank, and a trace of ruthlessness was inadvertently revealed, but it was only for a moment that he changed to a smiling face, "There is no one who knows me than Luo Ren, okay, since you all have understood my intentions, then hurry up and do it, how to distribute the quantity is your business, I just want to see a lot of food appear in front of me within the specified time." ”

After everyone left, Julio couldn't help but smile and picked up the agreement again, which clearly stated that each sword was exchanged for 10,000 catties of food, he was looking forward to those weapons supervised by dwarf craftsmen, but at the same time, he was skeptical that Sheng Xuan would be able to come up with this amount, but no matter what, he had already found someone who was willing to sign an agreement with him, as for the result, it would only be known then.

After carefully putting the agreement into the drawer, he stood up and picked up the wine glass, just put it to his mouth but suddenly frowned, and then raised his hand to spill the wine inside, the wine was still taken down from the table, obviously not in his mood at this time, he took out a bottle of spirits from the wine cabinet next to him, and there was a high-level fire magic crystal soaked in the crystal wine bottle, for him now, only such wine is enough to taste.

While pouring down a glass of wine, he muttered a name, "Reg, Leg, why are you in front of her at this time? Is it all God's arrangement?" Then he simply picked up the bottle and poured it wildly, and in a blink of an eye, all that was left of the bottle of spirits was the magic crystal that hit in the bottle.

Early the next morning, Shengxuan was taken by Reg to meet Julio, and they had an important business to do on this trip, that is, to find a master of space magic to open up a storage space on the Nashi.

"This matter 、、、" Julio pondered for a moment, and couldn't help wiping his chin with his hand, "It's really a bit difficult to do, space magic masters, I really don't know any of them, and even if I know them, it's not easy to see, but I can recommend someone to you, as for whether this person can help, I can't guarantee it." ”

The person Julio said would be in the Mercenary City, which surprised both Sheng Xuan and Rege, and rushed to the Mercenary City with the letter of the Grand Duke, and then carefully found the door of a shop along the address, but at that moment Sheng Xuan showed a smile, "Could it be him?"

The old man in the store was also very happy to see Sheng Xuan, and couldn't help nodding his head in praise, "I didn't expect you to have reached such a level after a year, and you are already an elemental mage of several departments, it seems that that book is really prepared for you." ”

After listening to the purpose of Sheng Xuan's trip, the old man's face was awe-inspiring, and his tone was extremely cold, "Julio, this little guy, is really going to make trouble for me," looked at Sheng Xuan and then smiled again, "Forget it, if it were someone else, I would definitely not help, and I would have kicked them out, but since it is you, and we are fate, I will help you this time, but only this once." ”

When the old man saw the number of Na Shi that Sheng Xuan had taken out, he immediately regretted what he had just said, "You 、、、 how can you have so many Na Shi?" Sheng Xuan smiled and did not answer, but took out a pebble-sized gem from the Na ring and respectfully placed it on the old man's table.

At this moment, even this old man couldn't help but look at it, and he couldn't leave the gem anymore, "Celestial crystal, it's really a celestial crystal! I didn't expect you to find such a huge celestial crystal!" This celestial crystal is extremely important to the light mage, not only is it an excellent gem to assist in cultivation, but it can also increase the power of light magic, many people can't get celestial crystal, so they use fluorescent crystals instead, but the difference between the two is a world apart.

In just an instant, the old man returned to normal, and couldn't help but look sideways at Sheng Xuan, "How do you know that I will like this celestial crystal?" Sheng Xuan couldn't help but smile, "Actually, I guessed early in the morning that you are a high-level magic master, and maybe even a holy magic master, otherwise you wouldn't have such a unique opinion on magic, and after I finished reading the book of the elemental mage, I became even more determined in this idea, and guessed through the records in the book that you may be practicing light magic, so 、、、"

The old man was stunned for a moment, but then smiled, "The kid is attentive, okay, I'll help you this time, but I can't ,、、、finish it in a short time with so many stones" "This time, you only need to help me refine a piece of grain that can hold five million catties of grain, and I will choose another time to get the rest, so thank you for being here." ”

Breaking through the space, this magic consumption is huge, plus the old man is not space magic in the first place, although the light magic cultivation to the peak can also break the space control, but it is more mind-consuming, even if the old man's cultivation is like this, it took a day and a night, this is still under the condition of the increase of the celestial crystal, and when the old man dragged his tired body out of the secret room, he complained again and again in his heart, and even thought that Shengxuan, this kid, would give him the Tianjing Stone is this purpose?

However, this speed still surprised Sheng Xuan and Rege, because when they heard the tyrant say, it was quite time-consuming and laborious to open up storage space in the stone, and it would take days or even months at every turn, but they didn't expect that the old man had completed it in just one day and one night.

As for the old man's speculation about Sheng Xuan's purpose, he never had such an idea, but he planned to ask the old man for some more cultivation methods, because he had benefited a lot from the conversation with the old man before, and he stumbled upon this piece of celestial crystal in the mine, and guessed that the old man might be a light mage, so he was ready to give it to him this time, if everything was carefully planned by him, then it would not be Sheng Xuan's character.

Thousands of pounds of heavy burden, of course Sheng Xuan was not in the mood to delay too much, but he still took the opportunity to consult some fire magic-related questions, and then the two of them rushed overnight, all the way back to Julio's Mansion It was late at night the next day, but there was another surprise waiting for him, that is, five million catties of grain had been prepared, just waiting for them to deliver, looking at the square full of grain, Sheng Xuan's heart finally became a little more steady, but in an instant, he was subdued by a larger stone, and the grain had already been taken by others, and what would be used to fulfill his promise at that time?

"I have prepared all the food, and I will prepare the rest as agreed, which is equivalent to handing over my net worth and life to you, I hope Brother Shengxuan will not let me down." Julio patted him on the shoulder and said this meaningfully, but the hand seemed to be patting him on the heart.

When the two of them rushed back to the dwarven station, more than ten days had passed, looking at the mountain of food, some hungry dwarves simply grabbed a handful and stuffed it into their mouths, but they were driven away by the three brothers with people, he was not distressed about the food, but these people have not eaten a full meal for many years, and it is dangerous to eat so much raw rice at this time.

After hearing Sheng Xuan's words, the three brothers in the stone room suddenly turned pale, "You dare to agree to such conditions, you better send these grains back, we can't complete this agreement." ”

Sheng Xuan also knew that it would be difficult to ascend to the sky, but what else could he do if he didn't? Looking at the three brothers' crying expressions, he knew that it was useless to say anything now, so he walked towards the door, but when he reached the door, he suddenly stopped, and whispered, "Even if you eat food, I'll think of a way!"
