"Baron Hudson, don't get excited.

With a formula, it doesn't mean that you can make a life essence.

Since the invention of the life essence liquid by Master Kembo Yin, after the research and improvement of the alchemy masters of the past generations, there are not a thousand formulas of the life essence, but also 800 kinds.

In order to keep secret, these recipes have been added to the unique refining techniques of alchemists.

If there is an error in any link in the middle, it is impossible to refine successfully.

Although Your Excellency is also a magician, the study of alchemy is probably just getting started, right? ”

Introduction to alchemy, which is definitely the greatest compliment.

In fact, Hudson didn't even figure out what alchemy was.

Whether there is any knowledge related to the collection of other branches, I don't know for the time being, anyway, there is no relevant record of his family's branch.

Even if he had the knowledge, Hudson didn't think he could grasp it with just a few glances.

If alchemy were so simple, I'm afraid that all the magicians would have turned into alchemists, and Dacheng's alchemists would really make money.

Just make a few magic potions and you can sell them for a lot of money. Much more popular than the priest's kryptonite healing technique.

"Kate is here just to tell me this, right? To tell you the truth, I'm really not good at alchemy.

But it doesn't mean that the Coslow family can't invite an alchemist.

As long as there is a formula, even if there is a lack of refining techniques, we can study it with blood.

Your Excellency should know what the essence of life means to our family! ”

Hudson said with a blank face.

Without discounting, if there is such a thing, it is not his business.

There are so many branches of the Coslow family, everyone acts together and shares the cost together, and there are definitely a lot of resources that can be mobilized.

"In that case, I'll be blunt.

A year ago, during an operation deep into the Orc Empire, I stumbled upon a piece of parchment, which was the recipe for refining the essence of life.

When I was in the Northland, I looked with the alchemist of the family and was sure that the recipe was real.

However, a corner of the recipe is missing, and part of the content of the smelting core is missing. If there is an alchemy master, it won't be a problem.

The key is the secret method, which is passed down by word of mouth and is not recorded on it.

If your family is willing to do research, you can still do it.

If Your Excellency the Baron has a way to help me get rid of the troubles of the July Society, it will be no problem to hand over the recipe to Your Excellency.

But the problem is that you can't do it now, so what can I get by handing over the recipe to you?

Don't try to threaten, at this point, I don't know when someone will be sent to see the Lord of the Dawn! ”

It was supposed to be a good deal, but unfortunately Kate's last addition to the Baron instantly destroyed the atmosphere.

Hudson was speechless, was he that kind of person?

When did he threaten people when he talked about business?

It's a pity that there is no way to explain this, and once it is discussed, it will become more and more black.

"If it's an intact recipe, plus the matching refining techniques, then it must be priceless.

Now there is a lack of supporting refining methods, and even the recipes are not complete.

Your Excellency said that only the part of the smelting demon core is missing, but the recipe is not complete, who knows if there is any other information recorded on the missing corner?

With this mutilated recipe, who knows if we can launch the full formula?

Even if it can be done, how much does it cost?

Everything is unknown.

The high risk reduces the value of the formulation. Now I can only give 20,000 gold coins, or some equivalent, and gamble it! ”

Hudson said with a solemn expression.

Obviously, this level of gambling is not easy for him.

Compared with the expenditure on purchasing formulas, the investment in later research and development is the real majority.

The most important thing is that the Coslow family does not have its own alchemist, so they can only turn to others for help, and the cost is even greater.

"It's a little bit of a benefit that's not worth mentioning compared to the risk I'm taking.

For this mutilated prescription, I will die nine times. Even after leaving the Northlands, the Orc Empire has not revoked my arrest.

In addition to the 20,000 gold coins, I also need Your Excellency to coordinate and help me replace the scattered fiefs together.

If you come up with a complete recipe, give me a copy of it! ”

Hearing Kate's conditions for coming to Baron, Hudson rolled his eyes directly.

Except for 20,000 gold coins, which is the easiest, the remaining two are difficult to complete.

Helping to coordinate the replacement of territories sounds simple, but if you really implement it, it will be a big trouble.

The third is not negotiable, and transcribing a copy sounds simple, but in fact it is purely a blood loss.

The high investment in R&D, in exchange for the sharing of results, Hudson has no way to explain to other investors.

"Impossible!"

"It's impossible to come up with a complete recipe without going through countless trials.

If it were simple, Your Excellency's family would have done it a long time ago, so why take it out to cheapen me?

This kind of investment is also not something that the mountain leader can afford, and the entire Coslow family may not be able to bear it, so I have to pull people to share the risk.

Unless you are willing to contribute the formula for free, or are also willing to throw money into it, we can continue to talk about the third one. ”

Seeing this scene, Baron Kate also secretly complained.

The Life Essence Formula is indeed priceless, even if it is incomplete, but this thing is not easy to get rid of!

Families with purchasing power don't need this thing. The family who needs it, but they can't afford it.

Although some middle-class nobles with shallow backgrounds also need this thing, there are not many people with small mouths, and the gap in the life essence is not large.

I won't buy one for ten or eight years, and it's not cost-effective at all, so why spend a lot of money on it?

Including Kate's own family, considering that the input and output are not proportional, they gave up research and development.

A family like the Coslow family that has both demand and purchasing power cannot be found in the entire Alpha Kingdom.

"I don't want the formula, but if your family researches it, it must be sold to me at a fair price in the future."

Baron Kate struggled to get it.

If he hadn't felt threatened and needed to build up, he wouldn't have risked selling it.

Hudson, in addition to the Coslow family's willingness to buy, is more important because of credibility.

The entire Southeastern Provinces knew that Baron Hudson was walking the talk. There is no deception in doing business, and the contract has never been broken.

"No problem!

But first, I can't guarantee the quantity if the materials used to refine the life essence are too rare.

In addition, you can obtain these life essence solutions only for your own use and are prohibited from selling them to the outside world.

This is also the tacit understanding of the major forces, and I think that Your Excellency will not knowingly commit a crime and invite disaster to yourself. ”

Hudson casually agreed.

This kind of strategic resource is not intended to make money. No matter how profitable he was, he didn't dare to sell it.

"Good!"

With Kate's voice landing, the transaction was officially completed.

Twenty thousand gold coins are naturally white, and Lord Hudson is not arrogant enough to take out 20,000 gold coins at any time.

If you really want to do that, I'm afraid that the cash flow of the territory will have problems in a short time. Playing white strips is the king of trading.

As for whether it will be paid in cash or deducted from goods in the future, it will be up to Baron Kate to choose it herself.

According to Hudson's experience in debt, more than 90% of creditors will choose discounted goods to cover their debts.

"Ninety-five fold", this is his greatest sincerity to creditors. Whether you purchase any product from the mountain collar, you can enjoy the same discount.

It is a pity that the mountain collar currently only sells iron products, and other industries cannot even see the sprouts. It greatly restricts the desire of creditors to consume.

Sending Baron Kate away, looking at the life essence formula in his hand, Hudson was embarrassed to find that he couldn't understand it.

The technical magic terminology seemed to him to be like the unique words of a certain industry in his previous life. In addition to their own people who can understand it, outsiders are all confused.

Reaching out to wake up the cub who was sleeping behind him, he shook the parchment in front of Uncle Bear's eyes a few times, and as a result, Bear Stearns looked at a fool.

In an instant, Hudson realized that he had done something stupid. His master's knowledge is limited, and as a pet bear, how can his culture be high?

If it weren't for the fact that the ancestors of the Earth Bear were awesome and left them with valuable inheritance memories, they would be able to toss themselves into pure illiteracy with the style of this group of lazy people.

These terms of hidden magic were born in the last few hundred years, and they are not in the memory of inheritance, and Bear Stearns is naturally as confused as Hudson.

Originally, he wanted to find Kate to translate it for Baron, but in the end Hudson held back.

I still want to save face. Anyway, I just made a blank slip verbally, and I didn't pay the money, and I wasn't afraid to buy fakes.

……

"Father, uncles, how much do you know about July?"

did not rush to mention the formula of life essence, but first cared about the July meeting, not because Hudson couldn't distinguish between priorities and priorities, but because of practical needs.

The incomplete formula of the essence of life can be studied at any time, but there will be something going on in July, and it is likely to be close at hand.

vertex

I don't have a little bit of information, and he is really at a bottom when he is the supplier of the July meeting.

"This organization is very mysterious, it was born 100 years ago, and no one knows the exact structure of the organization.

But I found a record of this organization in a note left by my great-grandfather.

It seems that the founder of this organization is the orphan of a group of Northland nobles who are unwilling to lose their inheritance. The purpose of the establishment was to take revenge on the five giants of the Northland.

At that time, there were still people who pulled us to join, but the ancestral land was lost, the people of the various branches were panicked, and there was a lack of people in charge of the clan, so the matter was over.

These are all materials from a hundred years ago, after the vicissitudes of life, and the gang of people who founded the July Club have long been ancient.

Now this organization may have undergone a qualitative change a long time ago. If you just want to seek revenge from the five giants and regain the lost inheritance, you can't shout the slogan of subverting the kingdom at all. ”

Sne's words woke Hudson up. The Coslow family can survive, and other Northland nobles who have lost their inheritance will definitely have survivors.

In addition to the southward portion, some of these people insisted on staying in the northland. The relationship between the nobles by marriage was complicated, and it was not difficult to find a relative to defect to at all.

Even if someone took advantage of the situation to blend in with the five families, Hudson would not find it strange.

If those slave traders are the descendants of the nobility who lost their inheritance in the past, then what they are doing now is understandable.

Back then, the five major families borrowed the hands of orcs and destroyed their family inheritance.

Now they are carrying forward the practices of the five major families, and they are also using the power of orcs to take revenge on the five major families, which is completely reasonable.

If so, then the Coslow family should still stand with them. Only by subverting the rule of the five major families over the Northland can it be possible to take back the ancestral land.

Just think about it in your heart, if you really want to implement it, Hudson is still firmly against it.

It is easy to provoke a war, but it is difficult to end it. If you don't have enough strength, you will definitely lose the Alpha Kingdom if you take the liberty of causing a war.

The five great families of the Northland may collapse, but the nobles of the kingdom also want to curry favor. At any time, he will be forced to spill blood on the battlefield.

Even if he won the battle and reclaimed the family's ancestral land, Hudson was reluctant to go over and be neighbors with the orcs.

Resisting the orc invasion is not something that can be achieved by the efforts of a lord or a family.

All the nobles of the Alpha Kingdom joined forces, and they were only passively beaten. Only when the countries of the mainland join hands can victory be achieved.

In this context, no matter who is stationed in the Northland, the situation is extremely awkward.

"The people of the July Society, in recent times, have been secretly purchasing weapons and equipment in various parts of the kingdom, and have strongly demanded that only inferior weapons be purchased.

The mountain commander alone received an order to arm enough troops for 30,000 troops, and judging from the size of some of the custom-made weapons, it did not look like they were for human soldiers.

I suspect that these weapons are intended to be smuggled into the Orc Empire for use by the vassal races under the command of the five royal families.

If the inference is accurate, then the Orc Empire is beginning to prepare for war. At least one of the five royal families, preparing to invade the south. ”

Hudson said worriedly.

The Orc Empire invaded south, and it was not every time the five royal families were dispatched together, as long as there was a full-scale war, it would come out.

Sometimes one comes, sometimes two, and the number of people who come depends entirely on their mood.

Every time they invade the south, they drive countless vassal races to fight as cannon fodder. It is not so much a special invasion of the south, not as a purpose to consume the surplus population in the country, and to rob it by the way.

Alone against the invasion of the last orc royal family, the Alpha Kingdom is still not intimidated. When encountering two orc royal clans, sitting on a fortress for defense, they can barely cope.

If there is more, then hurry up and call for help!

Don't say it's a beating, and you can't even defend it. We can only exchange space for time, resist on local battlefields, and delay time to wait for reinforcements from various countries.

"Don't worry too much about this kind of thing, you can see that those high-ranking people in the kingdom are not stupid.

The July meeting is also out of mind.

It's easy to procure ordnance, but it's not that simple to ship so many weapons and equipment to the Orc Empire.

Whether it is the garrison of the kingdom or the five major families of the Northland, they will try their best to intercept it.

In addition to paying attention to ordnance, you can also pay attention to the changes in the grain market. On the eve of the outbreak of major wars, food prices have risen.

There will always be a gang of traitors who will try to rush supplies for the Orc Empire. Some nobles in the kingdom also ignore this for their own interests. ”

Baron Redman said indignantly.

Looking at that expression, it seems that he wants to tear apart those gang of traitors and greedy nobles who disregard the interests of the human race.

Hudson on the sidelines, it was extremely embarrassing. If you are judged by this standard, he is definitely one of the greedy nobles.

There is no way, and those who sell arms are not good goods. The general environment is like this, and he also learns badly.

If you look at the major arms dealers in China, you can see that the hot business shows that no one has refused these orders delivered to the door.

"Alright, Redman.

There is no point in being angry with those people except to be able to anger one's own body.

Whether or when the Orc Empire invades is not something that we little people are qualified to ask.

Even if it was a real fight, it would be the Northland guys who had the first headache. Maybe this battle is a turning point for the family to regain their ancestral land.

First of all, according to our established plan, find a way to get more life essence, and train as many knights as possible to enhance the strength of the family. ”

The eldest Fidel Knight persuaded.

When people get older, the focus is different. For the Fentry Knight, the biggest dream is to be able to get his ancestral land back in his lifetime.

No matter which vein he got back, as long as he could plant the flag of the Coslow family, it was his lifelong wish.

As soon as the topic deviated, everyone began to discuss the reconquest of the ancestral land, making Hudson feel like an outsider.

This kind of attachment to the ancestral land from the bottom of his bones is not something Hudson can understand. The only thing he could do was to nod his head from time to time, indicating that he was in favor of recovering the ancestral land.

Participate in the discussion, then you don't have to. It's not that Hudson is passive, it's really a strategic plan for everyone, and it's so rough that people are speechless.

Perhaps it would be more appropriate to make a wish under the idol of the Lord of the Dawn than to discuss it.

After everyone was almost discussed, Hudson slowly asked, "Father, uncles, do you have any familiar alchemy masters?"

Or other branches, it is okay to have connections in this area. But it must be absolutely reliable and there must be no mistakes. ”

"Why do you ask this, do you want to change to alchemy?"

Baron Redman asked with concern.

He had finally raised an outstanding son, and he didn't want to see Hudson fall into the pit of alchemy.

In the circle of small nobles, there has always been a saying: "Magic is poor for three generations, and alchemy ruins a lifetime".

In short, these two gold-swallowing professions are not something that the poor can touch.

Although the mountain collar is developing well, it is still heavily indebted, and Hudson has nothing to do with wealth for the time being.

It's just a matter of becoming a magician.,That's a gift from a monster.,You can't get cheap and sell well.。

But Baron Redman's staggering monthly expenses still shocked Baron Redman, and completely broke the idea of letting his juniors learn magic.

Hudson has the ability to withstand a huge pit. If you jump into another pit, it's hard to say.

"Just this morning, I accidentally acquired a fragment of a Life Essence formula. Most of the above content is complete, except that the part of smelting the demon core is missing.

I would like to ask a reliable alchemy master to help translate it, and by the way, calculate how much investment is needed to restore the ......."
