Chapter 20: Carl's Magic Laboratory

Wyatt, who was poorly dressed, and two Sainse slaves, who were almost naked except for the strip of cloth on their crotch, naturally could not just walk the streets of the imperial capital.

After leaving the slave market and unshackling them with the keys given by the Chamber of Commerce, Charlin hired a carriage and took them to the tailor's shop to buy three sets of ready-to-wear clothes.

What Xia Lin bought for Wyatt was just an ordinary cotton shirt and linen pants, but such a simple clothes were actually conveyed by this beautiful young man with a fashionable and simple feeling, so that Xia Lin really didn't know what to say.

The two Thine slaves were dressed in coarse cotton and sewn linen padding on their shoulders.

After putting on the clothes, the numbness of the two Sains was also reduced a lot, and Xia Lin gave the two Sain strong men two convenient names by the way.

The Thine slave with a bit of a big nose and looks a bit like a martial arts star in his previous life is called Long, and the Thine slave with straight hair and a mole on his chin is called Zu.

Bringing the three slaves home, and having Long and Zu in their place, John Sr. and Harper were finally freed from repetitive manual work.

But now is not the time to rest, so Wyatt is taken by Xia Lin and goes out again with Harper.

This time, he was going to buy a single-family house in the West End, not far from the slums, to use as his future magic laboratory, and now that he had a stable income of about three to four gold lundes a day, Xia Lin was ready to start studying magic immediately.

The location of the West End is not good, and there are naturally many more vacant houses for sale than in the North District, and after spending two or three hours of stop-and-go shopping, Xia Lin finally bought a suitable house.

There are two floors, with a cellar, and a large courtyard with some shrubs and three unknown trees, which looks very shady and quiet, which is suitable for the laboratory.

On top of that, there is a well in the yard of this five-kirent house for private use.

Xia Lin opened the wooden lid on the edge of the well and took out a bucket of water to taste it, and found that the water quality was very good, so that in the future, the water would not have to wait until the morning to buy it from the water delivery person who passed by the door.

Not only does this save you a lot of money, but it also saves you a lot of trouble, since the water fetcher is not always on call at the door all day.

The family was very populous, so Charlin bought a few sets of mattresses for Wyatt to live with him, and asked Harper to teach him Sassen when he was fine, and at night he could teach him Arabic numerals and four arithmetic.

In addition, if the two of them were busy doing magic experiments in the dark, Wyatt could also run an errand and buy some food to fill their stomachs, and he would naturally be responsible for the hygiene of the house in the future.

Unexpectedly, he could be assigned a room of his own under the new owner, Wyatt was very surprised and frightened.

Before, he had a vague feeling from Xia Lin's attitude towards him that his new master was different from those who came to buy slaves from the Slave Chamber of Commerce, and seemed to treat himself as a person, not a slave, and now it seems that this impression is indeed not wrong.

Thinking of what Xia Lin had told him in the Slave Chamber of Commerce that he needed someone to take care of his business, Wyatt felt a little apprehensive.

In fact, in addition to being quite confident in the two fields of animal husbandry and language, Wyatt really doesn't know much about the field of business, if he messes up the master's business, I'm afraid he will be sold twice, right?

It seems that I have to figure out a way, maybe it would be a good idea to go to the market and see how the vendors and merchants are doing business.

After planning the approximate use of the space in the laboratory, the three of them began to clean up the house, after all, it had not been inhabited for quite some time, and a thick layer of dust had fallen from top to bottom.

Originally, Wyatt wanted to volunteer to clean up alone, but Xia Lin decisively vetoed it.

His current thoughts were to study magic, study magic, magic and research, how could he wait for Wyatt, a teenager who was not as strong as himself and didn't seem to have done any housework, to clean up slowly.

And the truth is not what Xia Lin expected, this teenager, who may have a lot of abilities in other aspects, has almost zero skill points in housework.

In the end, it turned out that Wyatt went to the yard to fetch water and rags, and Charlin and Harper worked together to tacitly use cleaning techniques and manual cleaning to clean a few places that needed to be cleaned urgently.

As for more places, it is naturally handed over to Wyatt to clean tomorrow, even if it doesn't, this teenager has to learn slowly, otherwise what is the point of Xia Lin putting him here?

"Alright, that's pretty much it for today, and this is where we work in Karl's Magic Lab from now on.

In the future, Harper, you don't have to go to Carl's Cake Shop, you can just come here, if you want to live here, you can do it, anyway, I have a room for you.

Tomorrow we're going to buy some magic copper, rune ink, rune pens, parchment, various zero and one ring spell scrolls, and magic crystals for magic experiments, so be sure to get there early! ”

The three of them worked hard to survive, and finally cleaned up the room where they stayed at night and the laboratory for tomorrow, Xia Lin wiped his sweat with satisfaction and told Harper.

"Okay, it looks like a good environment here, my room at home is a little insufficient, it's not convenient to meditate at night, I'll go back tonight to get my clothes, and I'll live here in the future!"

Harper was also happy with the environment in the lab, and he nodded.

"That's okay, I'll pay for your room and board, thanks to your help during this time, otherwise the sugar workshop wouldn't be able to do it.

I was going to give you a salary increase, but this time I will waive the cost of food and lodging, and by the way, we will settle the salary once every ten days, so as not to send you money once a day, and the accounts are not easy to do. ”

Xia Lin naturally welcomed Harper's permanent residence, and as for extending the salary settlement, it was also something he had long wanted to talk to Harper.

After all, it was the grass days, and letting Harper take a few silver mar home every day could also give him and his family peace of mind.

But now that things are basically on track, it would be appropriate to extend the payroll time to 10 days in order to reduce the hassle of crediting.

Originally, Xia Lin still wanted to use the weekly salary system, but unfortunately there is no week or week, week, and day in this world, so he can only use a relatively close ten-month salary system.

"So be it, I don't lack anything anyway."

Harper nodded and accepted the ten-pay system indifferently. In his opinion, the money was to repay Xia Lin's fifteen gold lunt debts anyway, and it didn't make a difference to him whether it was extended or not.
