Chapter 339: The Old Mage Arrives (Ask for Subscription)
"Beroon, okay!"
Beronne also has a military background, and his message will be more credible.
"Is it really okay, though?"
Lispeer is still a little worried, although not a single grain of salt has come out now, but seeing the production drawings and operation procedures provided by Beaune, she can already predict that the output is absolutely amazing.
Destroying the existing salt price is absolutely devastating, and it doesn't even use magic.
Is this what Born refers to as industrialization?
The absolute crushing destruction of traditional industries by industrial production is most evident in the centralized planting areas.
With less than a thousand dwarf slaves, the wheat fields were maintained and nearly 60,000 people were fed, and as a result, there was no longer a need to occupy large amounts of land and farmers.
Because of this, the city of Enoch was built so quickly, so Born didn't need all the outcasts to become lords, and even picked out what he needed.
And the large amount of salt flowing into the market, even if it is controlled, will definitely have a serious impact on the market, and those who rely on salt to make a living will lose their financial resources.
This is also what Lisper fears, she is no longer the Arcane leader in the ivory tower, even the low-level gangsters have their own way of survival.
They may not be good in terms of strength, but their ability to make trouble is not bad, especially the group of down-and-out spellcasters, who are inextricably linked with the upper echelons, really annoyed them, and the dean is estimated to have a headache.
"No problem, with Beron going to spread the recruitment information, they really can't survive, they will naturally come to Enoch City."
If there is a bite to eat, who will rebel!
By then, the city of Enoch had already established itself, and what could be more attractive than a new city.
Whether it is salt production or winemaking, it takes a certain amount of time to buffer, the wine needs to be fermented, and the salt mine also needs to be mined, and there is no time for one or two months, and even the initial finished product cannot be produced.
Of course, if Bohn is personally involved, it will be done in a few days, but if you do everything yourself, how can the people below grow, you have to give the people below time to learn and make mistakes.
Why didn't Shu Guowei basically get anyone in the later period, and it wasn't that Zhuge Liang did everything himself, not only was he exhausted, but the people below were also raised.
So it's not that Vaughn is lazy, it's to give other people a chance to exercise.
Born then gave the koji to Elle, and the process of making wine was very simple, and what needed special attention was nothing more than temperature control and hygiene, which was even simpler than spell experiments.
"Koji is actually a strain that largely determines the taste of the wine, so you can ask the old mushroom man for help and see if you can optimize it on this basis."
"Okay."
Lispel nodded.
……
The sky was still blue in Severten, the wind was starting to cool, and there were scattered ice floes on the sea.
The gradually colder weather did not bring a hint of tranquility to the city, but rather became more busy.
At the top of the Gilles Academy Mage Tower, a special guest was welcomed, and His Excellency Congenio was sitting at the table, lost in thought.
And sitting in front of him was an older old man, none other than Plock, the lord of the city of Chenis. Tif.
"Are you really decided?"
Conchenio sighed softly and asked again.
"Yes, I'm sure."
The old mage said, "I will step down as the lord of the city of Chenis, and I will ask Your Excellency the Speaker to appoint others." ”
Hearing this, Congenio gently rubbed the bridge of his nose, he really didn't expect that one day, there would be someone who didn't want to be the city lord.
You must know that Nether's power as a city lord is almost very large, and if he says that he is the lord of the city, he is actually the lord.
If the lord of the castle hadn't died or disappeared unexpectedly, there really hadn't been a situation where he didn't do it.
But this man is Plock. There was no surprise to him, he was a real spellcaster, an arcanist, not more obsessed with power than others, even during his tenure in Gennis City, he hardly interfered in the city's affairs, and his quarterly taxes were paid in full, never withheld, and he was one of the most trusted people of Congenio.
And Plock. Tifu suddenly offered to quit, which was also unexpected by Conchenio.
"Have you found a solution?"
Congenio asked.
"Not yet, but I already have some ideas, just a little bit."
The old mage smiled slightly.
Finally a piece of good news!
Hearing this, Conchenio also smiled, he was genuinely happy for him, and then his expression moved, and he asked, "Is it the kid's fault?" ”
"Yes, get inspiration from a few of his promotion techniques, but it's still a little bit close!"
"So you're quitting, and you're actually going to find him?"
Conchenio asked, somewhat uncertain.
One is the genius of the last period, and the other is the genius of the present. It was his idea to contact Beaune.
I didn't expect it to turn into a stone to shoot himself in the foot, that guy from Born should be in a hurry to build a new city now, and he can't let him go to Gennis City to accompany Plock. Tyff bar.
And Plock. Tyford probably thought the same way, since Bohn couldn't come, he would go over, for others the position of the city lord may be life, incomparably precious, but for Plock. For Tif, it's more of a burden.
If it weren't for the fact that he could mobilize the city's resources for research, he wouldn't have done it.
See Plock. Tifu nodded, and Congenio could only reluctantly agree, but this was a bit of a headache instead of writing.
Because the vacancy of a city lord is enough to cause a new wave of power.
……
Born was still surprised when he saw the old mage, and he didn't expect the old mage to come by himself like this.
Because the city lord is similar to the lord, he basically stays in his own territory, and if something happens to someone else's territory, it can easily be defined as a provocation.
Of course, if he dies in someone else's territory, then the trouble is even greater, so Gordon will find the city lord's mansion to visit when he goes to other towns.
Worship the dock, save unnecessary misunderstandings, this is also because in the hundreds of years of history of Nether, the city lord almost did not die, either for various reasons suddenly died or disappeared.
The main thing is also the lord of a city, the power is too big, if you want to do something, as long as the city lord is killed first, then the city's management system will immediately fall into chaos, which is why Born divided the rights of the city lord, and even the property is divided.
It's not that Born doesn't value power, and he really doesn't care, in a world of supernatural power, power is an appendage of power.
Congenio is a good example, the legendary mage, the power of Severton is basically divided, the main business is the dean, and the side business is the speaker.
In this way, the king's rights were still elevated, and he didn't dare to jump out and jump, but only secretly made some small moves.
When Born learned about the old mage's situation from Gordon's mouth, the whole person was a little confused, and the city lord stopped doing it, so he came to find him.
"No, I've got to ...... it"
Vaughn clutched his head.
This plot is not progressing right, he understands that he doesn't love the country and loves the beauty, and he has heard of the fairy going down to earth to marry a mortal, but the old man is not the right city lord, just to run out to find him, it's a little unacceptable.
His first thought now was to ask Lispel to explain that his sexuality was more normal.
Alas......
"Born. Iolum Scholars, please advise! ”
The old mage performed a mage salute.
"Plock. Your Excellency Tif, I should have learned from you. ”
Born hurried to return the salute.
Although there is still a little awkward in my heart, a high-level spellcaster can come to Enoch Oak City is comparable to winning the jackpot.
And this old mage is not an ordinary high-level spellcaster, although he has not seen him make a move, but from the magic power he occasionally leaks, you can sense the strength of the old mage.
Besides, a ruthless man who can study the spells of war, how bad will the magic be......
"Not long after the new city of Enochok City was built, there is a lack of materials in the city, I don't know what your Excellency needs, there is just a caravan that has gone to Sewenton, no, I'll buy it directly!"
"That's not necessary, I have my own things."
The old mage patted the package and said, "If you can, prepare a laboratory for me, preferably next to you." ”
Vaughn's smile deepened, the spellcaster who brought his own supplies, it was really ......... That's so kind.
As for the side of his laboratory building, it is easy to do, because Bohn has just received a 'telegram' from Conchenio, and the old mage has already found a way to break through the advanced level, and asked him to cooperate with the old mage as much as possible to conduct research.
I'll go......
The old mage was originally a high-level, and the 'high-level' on the telegram should mean high-level.
High Arcanist?!
Bohn became more cordial and personally led the old mage to the laboratory.
However, it is better to take the old mage around Enook City first to feel the characteristics of Enochok City, after all, he may live here for a 'while' after that.
"War Mage Academy?"
Vaughn's first stop was to take the old mage to the War Mage Academy, and although the entire academy was still under construction, its grandeur was already visible.
In addition to Giles College in Severington, there are also many city lords in other cities who have also thought of establishing their own colleges.
The teaching model of Giles College has been complained about more than once or twice, and Born has basically not attended classes again after taking it twice.
So everyone thinks that as long as the teaching is good and the materials keep up, they can also build an academy, but after that, they all failed without exception.
However, it will be too anxious to build the college before the city is built, not to mention whether the basic materials are in place, and the personnel are also a big problem.
However, what to do is a question for Beaune, and he does not comment, but the architectural model of the city of Enoch makes his eyes shine.
At this time, a strong man pushed a two-wheeled cart and walked in front of the two of them.
The gray-white mud flowed out of the cracks in the cart, and the old mage crouched down and felt the magic in the mud with a light touch of his fingers.
"This is magma? Is it the effect of softening the rock with magic? ”
The old mage suddenly showed a happy look, and then walked forward quickly, first touching the wall, and then leaning in front of the wall that was under construction.
Although none of them knew the old man, some people knew Born, especially the foreman, and when they saw Born coming, they immediately walked over quickly.
Although I don't know what this old man is going to do, I still show them to stop and let the noble lord see, since he came here with the mage master, he must also be a nobleman, and if he is bumped and injured, a group of people will be unlucky.
"It's okay, it's okay, you go on!"
The old mage hurriedly urged, a few people around, look at me, I see that you don't dare to move.
The foreman looked at Bohn with a distress look, and Bohn also saw their concerns, and smiled slightly, "It's okay, you do your job, don't worry about him." ”
The group looked at the foreman, who hesitated for a moment, and instructed them to continue their work, just as they tried not to touch the old man.
Seeing that the boss said so, he also began to continue to disassemble the plank, the rock and mud just now had 'solidified', and several people began to insert the crowbar into the gap between the wall and the plank, and then picked up the hammer and struck it, and soon the plank was removed, and a few people with tools came up next to them, and began to trim the wall where the plank was removed, and some protruding places smoothed it, or carved patterns on the seal.
And the few people who removed the wooden plank just now, one of them carried a board and installed it in the next area again, but because the old man was there, several people moved much slower, for fear of getting this noble old man.
The old mage looked very closely, and his eyes were so bright that no one else dared to look at him.
As if knowing that he was still here to affect them, the old mage stepped back, and after looking at it for a while, he turned to the construction site next door, and several people also sighed slightly when they saw the old man leave.
The movement here must not be able to hide from others, everyone knows that a noble old man likes to look and see, as long as there is a side, he will pay attention to it.
After the old mage had moved to the eighth place, he said to Bohn with great satisfaction, "What a genius idea! ”
"This should be a divine technique [Fossil to Mud], right? But there is no divine power in the mud, and you have improved the technique? ”
"Yes, the technique I asked for from Master Hill has been improved, but I didn't expect it to be quite practical, hahaha......"
Vaughn said modestly.
"It's not just a matter of practicality, it's a difference in thinking!"
The old mage looked solemn, "Spells have been used in warfare since they were created, although there are some spells that can bring convenience to the caster, but those are all for the caster, in a sense, it is only because of the different 'enemies' that different magic is adopted, and it is actually a 'battle'...... And the auxiliary spells are just some tricks, and the more the rings are dried, the more powerful the destruction becomes......"
“…… But you are different, you are really used for creation, you are right, you are really a genius, and extraordinary power should not be used only for destruction......"
Born was a little embarrassed to be praised, and the more the old mage spoke, the more excited he became, and the workers around him frequently cast strange glances, just now he just felt that the old man was sick, and now he felt that the old man should be crazy.
……
Some people died, but not completely......
