Chapter 153: Departure
Before you know it, the happy time of the night flies by, and soon it is the next morning.
Because of the long time he had to leave, and because Sean didn't think his house would be able to defend itself against the invasion of other professionals unattended, he decided to store all his valuables in a different place to make sure they wouldn't be stolen by the hateful thieves.
These valuables were not small in size, including the pedestal of ritual magic and a large number of materials and artifacts used in his alchemy, which was very troublesome to carry for a long time.
After thinking about it for a while, Sean planned to leave these things in Reinado's manor for the time being, at least the defenses there were much better than his home's, and there were even a few probationary-level professionals who stayed behind to protect them.
Of course, before leaving, he didn't dismantle the magic traps he left behind, these things were all small gifts he left for possible intruders, although they were just some minor troubles in front of apprentice-level professionals, but if they were encountered by apprentice-level professionals or even ordinary people, maybe even their lives would be lost here.
……
……
At nine o'clock in the morning, outside the Cockburn Manor, a large number of horse-drawn carriages gathered, servants hurriedly carrying goods, and soldiers and guards gathered in groups of three or five, chatting casually.
A trade license, as the name suggests, is a qualification to trade with the elven tribe.
Unlike simple purchases, trade is usually a two-way street, i.e. there is a back and forth, there is a buying and selling, so in addition to obtaining local specialties from the elven tribes, Reinaldo often transports large quantities of human products to sell, and makes a small profit on the difference.
It has to be said that those formal and master-level professionals have played this trade blockade is really amazing, they have indirectly increased the value of related items in the market by raising the trade threshold and reducing the trade time, and in just a few days of open period, they have made profits at both ends, and frantically absorbed a lot of wealth.
During this time, both the humans who were allowed to trade and the elven tribes themselves had to pay a large amount of commissions and taxes, and even the qualifications for trade would be sold for a high price, and the wool of those merchants would be collected again.
But even so, businessmen like Reinado still flock to it, after all, everything they pay can easily be earned back from the buyer after obtaining this qualification.
This is not a joke, you must know that the elf tribe named Silver Leaf is the second largest elf gathering place in several nearby kingdoms, although it is not a monopoly, but the rare products of the elves are still in short supply in the market, especially those high-quality slaves, it is really not difficult to sell them for a high price.
It is said that Reinado's investment cost alone this time is about 100,000 gold coins, and if everything goes well, there is no problem in making a profit of 40% or 50% in the end.
This is also the reason why he invited Sean to accompany him, after all, he is not afraid of 10,000, he is afraid of what happens, and it is still a trivial matter if he can't make money, and if he even loses the principal, it will be really miserable.
……
With the staff of reincarnation in his hand and a large pile of boxes floating behind him, Sean led Celia towards the door of Cockburn Manor, intending to talk to Reinado about storing things.
As he passed the convoy, the people around him avoided him and cast awe-struck at him with awe and curiosity.
Since these people worked under Reinado, they were all well-informed, and Sean's glorious deeds had already spread throughout the city of Teresa, and even those who did not care about current affairs had heard about him and remembered his appearance with their hearts.
A mysterious alchemy mage, a trainee-level professional killer, a black-robed reaper with a strange staff, a super-rich man with too many gold coins to run out, and a whole bunch of outrageous labels have been placed on Sean's body, even if it has been a long time since the previous events, his prestige still resounded throughout Teresa City.
Therefore, the moment Sean appeared, these people immediately recognized him, not to mention that he was followed by Celia, this beautiful elf slave was the standard for Sean's travel, so that the soldiers who had seen her could not forget it.
Sean is not actually unaware of this, but even if he hears these rumors, he will not care about other people's opinions, let alone understand their psychological activities.
Unlike those nobles who are weak and can only rely on wealth and power, Sean is a professional who is bent on pursuing a higher realm, and what others think of him has nothing to do with him, as long as it does not involve his own vital interests, he will not care.
Sean believes in the idea that as long as the strength is strong enough, then all problems will be solved logically, and all contradictions will be annihilated, and others are just passers-by on his way to becoming stronger, whether it is these little minions or their immediate boss Reinado, in fact, there is no need to deliberately understand or befriend.
……
When Sean met Reinado, the other party was counting the goods that were about to be loaded into the carriage, and this guy still attached great importance to matters related to accounts, even if he gave a little more time, he was not willing to hand it over to others.
"Huh? Your Excellency Sean, you are finally here, and we will leave as soon as the goods here are processed, and if you have anything that needs to be transported, you can tell me about it, so that I can make statistics. ”
After feeling Sean's soul fluctuations approaching, Reinado raised his head to look at him, and a smile suddenly appeared on his face.
"It is estimated that this amount of cargo will take up half a carriage, but for the sake of our relationship, I will not charge you any additional fees.
He said as he looked at the pile of boxes floating behind Sean for a moment.
"No, I'm going to bring the gold coins directly." Seeing that Reinado had some misunderstandings about this, Sean shook his head slightly, "I don't plan to sell these things, but I want to store them in your manor, because this trip is relatively long, and I am worried that my home is not safe enough, so I have this plan, do you think it is convenient?" ”
With that, a light flashed lightly at the tip of the staff of reincarnation in Sean's hand, disarming the shielding spell that had originally covered those boxes, allowing Reinado's spiritual power to see through them and see the objects stored inside.
Reinado gasped when he saw what Sean had brought, he was dazzled by the bottles of potions and materials that had been placed, as well as the stone tablets of the pedestal of ritual magic, the total value of which was definitely more than 10,000 gold coins just by a rough calculation.
You must know that in the past year, Sean has not only improved the level of a professional and the level of making alchemy props, he has never given up pharmacy, which is the field he is best at, and even put more energy into it every day than in other aspects, and has achieved a lot of good results.
With his own continuous efforts, he not only succeeded in formulating the long-awaited "Combination Potion (100)" and "Combination Potion (200)", but even greatly increased the success rate of Combination Potion (50) and the previous series of Potions, making it more than 80%.
This success rate has fully reached the standard of commercial use, and after contacting Fryk to confirm the price of the materials and finished products, Sean immediately began the large-scale production of these potions and sold them in bulk to the Bauhinia Chamber of Commerce.
In the course of a year, he had made a lot of money from the trade in combination potions, and he had obtained six or seven thousand gold coins alone, and there were countless other materials that had been used.
In addition, he also took the initiative to try some special potions, such as "Camos Explosive Potion", "Coulomb Lightning Bottle" and so on.
These things are more of an alternative alchemy item than a potion, and although they can only be used once and are very expensive, the effect is barely reasonable.
Most of the formulas of these potions were the result of the intellectual legacy that Sean had acquired from Lauren, and it was because of so many valuable assets that Sean was able to rise from ordinary people to apprenticeship without any pressure, so he was still quite grateful to this mentor in his heart.
However, judging by the speed of Sian's progress, this knowledge may not last long.
After all, Lauren himself is only a probationary-level mage, and although he has lived a long time, he still doesn't know anything about things above the official level.
Although knowledge is not as valuable as people think after countless years of development, if Sean wants to climb the heights further, it is best to learn complete and systematic knowledge. For this reason, he is afraid that it will take a lot of effort in the future.
But the rest of the matter will be settled later, Sean has to do a very simple thing now, that is, after everything is settled, take Reinado's hitchhike to the elven tribe together.
To be honest, he was still quite interested in the elven settlements, because he had only seen about places like this in books, and since he was taken to the mage tower by Lauren, Sean had rarely even gone out, let alone traveled.
……
"Well, store these? Of course you can. ”
After using his mental power to look at what Sean brought, Reinaldo nodded cheerfully in agreement.
"During the time we are away, most of the activities of the others will be suspended, and a few other midship-level friends will also be stationed on our side to prevent the enemy from taking advantage of the opportunity to sneak attack."
"In addition, there are many powerful rituals and ritual magic in the manor, etc., which I have arranged long ago, if I cooperate with the people who are left behind, even if all the apprentice-level professionals of the Southern Alliance come to attack, it will be difficult to break them in a short period of time."
"So you put your things here with me and put a hundred hearts, and we haven't been out for a few days, even if there is an accident here, as long as the people left behind notify us, we can come back quickly."
Hearing Reinaldo say this, Sean was also very satisfied, and he said that this guy's brain is definitely not stupid, even if the person is not in the city, he must have made targeted arrangements for this side.
"Okay, then please."
Sean smiled and shook Reinado's hand, and under his leadership, he stored the things in the hidden basement of a villa, and arranged some early warning and countermeasures by the way.
……
After the matter was settled, Sean was a lot more relaxed, and he led Celia to the carriage assigned to him, without even using the footstool, and with a wave of his hand, he let himself, Celia, and a small box that he carried with him float in.
The interior of the carriage was luxuriously decorated, made of a precious wood, the seats were padded with the fur of unknown beasts, and the table next to it was lit with the smell of incense.
The transparent glass windows let in the sunlight and illuminated the surroundings with diffuse reflections, and Sean casually tossed the box aside and took out a book from it to read quietly.
Seeing that her master was immersed in the ocean of knowledge and neglected herself, Celia leaned back to Sean in a bit of boredom.
For her, even if she doesn't talk to her master, she doesn't interact with her master in any way, just staying by her master's side and watching him is a very happy thing.
Of course, she knew how hard and hard her master worked on weekdays, but it was precisely because of this that Celia would not take the initiative to disturb her, but tried her best to make him happy when her master was resting, adding a little fun to her peaceful life.
In her heart, everything about herself belongs to her master, whether it is body or soul, and she should completely serve her master, so she would rather lean quietly and watch him by Sean's side than spend a second paying attention to things that have nothing to do with her master.
Just as the busy people outside the window, no matter what tricks they played, they couldn't keep Cilia's eyes off Sean, and the same was true for other things, even if the sky fell apart, she wouldn't care until her master was affected.
In this way, the two of them each looked at what they liked and indulged in it, and time passed quickly in this delicate atmosphere.
……
……
Half an hour later, the servants who were carrying the goods had finally prepared everything, and with a wave of Reinado's hand, the order to set off reached everyone's ears.
In the midst of this shouting one after another, the huge procession moved little by little, and the sound of wheels, the noise of the crowd, and the wheezing of camel beasts mixed together, opening the curtain of this journey.
Theresa had no walls, so there was no need to leave from a particular place, and a large number of horse-drawn carriages drove through the streets, through the squares, through the bazaars, one after the other, towards the outside of the city.
The soldiers shouted to dispel the crowd of onlookers and keep them from approaching the carriage, and the apprentice-level professionals who rode outside also exuded their powerful soul fluctuations to deter those with bad intentions.
