Chapter 247: The Great Trend (2/4)

In the afternoon, Lawson arrived in Maple Leaf Town.

Went to the Trade Hub and found Mona.

After a brief explanation of the situation, he gave his final conclusion

"In short, among the 30 ships, 10 large cargo ships carrying daily necessities such as food and clothing were selected, and the value of one was controlled at about 3,000 crowns. After flying a white flag when passing through the riverside town and being caught by the ship tax officer, it was done honestly. ”

Mona immediately understood: "Okay. ”

Lawson looked at the sky and felt that he was in a bit of a hurry to go back to Lily Manor today, so he rested overnight at Blue Sky House and continued to rush the next day.

After making a detour around Lily Manor, Vivien packed her things and got into her own carriage, the two carriages rushed to Crescent Town, one after the other.

Last night, Rosen and Vivien had already explained his agreement with Thrandis and vaccinated her, so they didn't have to worry about her causing trouble in Crescent Town.

When he returned to Crescent, Rosen thought.

"Now, there is Jenny, the alchemist, and Vivien, the alchemist, in the town, and after that, the blacksmiths, tailors, carpenters, and other craftsmen who make daily life tools are recruited, and they open shops in Crescent Town one by one, and the Crescent Town Market has a prototype."

In those days, the town was populated by craftsmen and merchants, providing all kinds of goods to the lords of the town and the farmers outside the town.

"By the way, there's still a hotel and a brothel in town."

These two old industries have to be there, because the demand is always there.

If the lord doesn't open it, the private person will open it.

For example, in a brothel, if you want to be noble and moral, and strictly sweep pornography, then there must be prostitution rampant, and the lord will lose a lot of income because of this.

Considering that there are no incurable diseases in this world, and that prostitutes usually know how to use contraception, it is a proper gentleman's paradise.

Lawson will not be a maverick, he must have everything he should have, and just follow the crowd for the time being.

While she was thinking about it, Vivien got into the Bright Moon carriage again.

She explained: "I'm bored alone, so I'm looking for you to talk."

She's really here to chat, or rather, to discuss academics.

"Rosen, your disintegration spell has inspired me, and I can't help but think of a question that I have been thinking about before."

As soon as he heard her words, Rosen also became serious.

"I guess you're thinking about the question of how fine matter can be."

Pushing this question down, it will lead to atomism, and the emergence of atoms is the beginning of modern chemistry.

Vivien immediately nodded: "Ah, it's a pleasure to talk to the wise."

She propped her chin in her hands, her eyes full of doubt.

"When a big stone is weathered, it becomes sand, and when the sand is ground up, it becomes powder, and no matter how fine the powder is, it becomes a slippery mud."

"But that's not the most detailed. I soaked the sand with the acid extracted from the tongue, and the sand disappeared completely, completely melting into the acid. ”

"Then I wondered, is there a gap in the acid that allows smaller, finer sand to get into?"

To be able to generate such an idea is very close to the truth.

Rosen immediately began to boot.

"I've observed a similar phenomenon and, moreover, I've come to a conclusion."

"Tell me about it."

Rosen said, "I found it out when I was bartending."

"I've found that one Sebi of alcohol, mixed with one Sebi of water, is always less than two Sebi."

Vivien's eyes lit up, "And what is your conclusion?"

"I guess the smallest portion of alcohol and water should be balls of different sizes. After mixing together, the small ball gets into the gap of the big ball, so the total volume is small. ”

"Ah, that's a very interesting idea. But why the ball? Why can't it be a block, or something else like a little thing? ”

Rosen laughed: "Of course, it can also be other shapes. I guess it's a ball because it flows freely, whether it's water or alcohol. ”

"And a bunch of blocks sitting together are obviously easy to get stuck on each other, and not so smooth."

Vivian nodded again and again: "Reasonable, your idea is very reasonable."

"So, water and alcohol are small balls, and stones are cubes?"

But she soon realized that something was wrong.

"But the water freezes. Will the ball still turn into a block? ”

She was confused again, and she couldn't figure it out.

Rosen didn't say anything more, just laughed.

"There are a lot of doubts, and when my alchemy laboratory is built, I will search for them one by one."

Vivien sighed heartily, "I'm already very, very looking forward to it. ”

After that, Rosen began to ask Vivien for alchemy.

Vivien naturally did not hide her selfishness, and explained them carefully to him one by one.

While asking for advice, Rosen had an idea.

Vivien is obsessed with the mystery of life, and this knowledge is very important to me. I'll just find a time to build her an optical microscope. ’

When Vivian researched the results, he just used them directly, saving worry and effort, and satisfying Vivian's curiosity.

It's a win-win.

When the convoy arrived near Crescent Town, Lawson had a fairly in-depth understanding of Vivien's alchemy, and he felt more and more that this was the most basic otherworldly chemistry.

As agreed, Vivien switched back to her carriage.

Lawson used a cleaning technique on the carriage to dispel the faint smell of perfume left by Vivien.

Soon, the convoy arrived near the walls of Crescent Town, and was about to turn to the temporary camp on the hillside, but was recognized by a Silvermoon Ranger patrolling nearby.

"Mayor ~ Mayor ~ Lord ~ The castle and temple of the lord have been built, and everyone has moved in."

Then he galloped over and led Rosen in front.

The people followed the ranger all the way into the town, and they saw that the town was in full swing, and many roads were hardened, and there were many more buildings on the side of the road.

Looking ahead, you can see the castle of the lords and the temple towering high in the center of the town.

It's only been four days, and it's been an unexpectedly big change.

As he sailed towards the castle of the lords, Rosen asked, "Did Madame and Miss Gendeloni also live in the castle?"

"Moved in."

"Is the temple open?"

"It's open, the Great Temple of Silver Moon Castle has sent a lot of people over, there must be fifty or sixty of them."

"Hmm~ That's good."

He was going to make a trip to the temple later.

He asked, "Is the inn or something built?" ”

"It's been built, and the inn is already open."

Rosen was very satisfied and waved his hand at Hansen.

"You go, take Lady Morrow to the inn for a while, and open her the best room."

"Tell her to stay at the inn in peace, and I'll arrange a better and more spacious place for her soon."

"Yes, Mayor Mare."

In a few moments, Vivien's carriage was heading in the direction of another inn.

Rosen's Moonlight carriage made its way into the spacious castle of the Lords.

Entering the castle courtyard and getting out of the car, I found Harrick already waiting outside the car.

He smiled and said, "Mayor Town, are you still satisfied with the speed of construction in Crescent Town?"

Rosen laughed: "Well done, much beyond my expectations."

Harrick got down to business in the second sentence: "So, the business problem is solved?"

"Solved."

Harrick's eyes lit up and he let out a long breath.

"Isn't Vobos lost, then?"

Rosen smiled slightly: "I can't say that, I can only say that I am rapidly sliding into the abyss of failure."

The two walked side by side over the castle hall, and after a few steps, Rosen asked, "What about Chapolais?"

Harrick's face was a little solemn: "I'm patrolling outside the town, and there are often people from the Brotherhood who come to make trouble these days."

Rosen was stunned: "The Brotherhood still has the heart to make trouble?" How's that going? ”

Harrick began to take a closer look.

"In the past few days, a lot of young people have come to join us every day, coming in waves, every few hours, even at night."

"There are five or six hundred, one or two hundred, or even dozens, adding up to four thousand, but the troublemakers have always been making trouble."

"Those who defect and make trouble are not all the way at all. The former yearn for a stable life, while the latter are both prodigal and adventurous. ”

"According to Knight Hamill's estimates, there are about eight or nine hundred of the latter, and they have been frequent on the border lately, harassing the daily activities of the farmers."

Rosen understood: "Then these people have changed from the so-called brotherhood to the bandits that everyone hates."

Harrick nodded: "Yes, it's a bandit, everyone scolds it, but it's really annoying." ”

Rosen said, "The situation of the Brotherhood is almost the same, right?" ”

"Yes, the farmer who defected brought back a lot of specific situations. The main leaders of the Brotherhood and what they do are clear. ”

Rosen said, "Then let's offer a bounty." ”

"The bounty for the head of the first evil Lofan is mentioned as 300 crowns, and then in the back row, there are 30 people in the row, and the bounty is given according to bad deeds, and the total bounty of 3,000 crowns is all spent."

"With the exception of these 31 men, the others, whatever their original status in the Brotherhood, will be pardoned and restored to his status as a freeman if they can carry these people's heads with them."

"In addition, if these 30 people can carry Lovale's head over, they will also be exempted from the capital crime and replaced by expulsion from the high ground."

"Yes, Mayor Mare!"

There will be brave men under the great reward.

I just don't know what Mage Horus will do next, or just give up.

But no matter how you do it, it must be some conspiracy that can't be put on the table, and Crescent Town is in full swing, and it doesn't hurt to do it.

Therefore, Rosen didn't take him seriously anymore.

"Uncle Harrick, you can help me make an announcement, and recruit the second batch of construction mages, just three hundred."

Harrick was stunned: "Huh? That spell casting guarantee is not enough. ”

"It's simple. Don't we have 330 casting pledges? One person can use it for half a day. Anyway, a mage's mana can only last for half a day. ”

The spellcasting guarantee is actually named, and there is an upper limit of 8 official apprentices for a formal mage, but the name can be changed, and no one stipulates that a mage cannot quickly change apprentices.

So there's a hole to drill.

Of course, you don't really need to change it at any time, when the guild inspector comes to check, it can be changed in real time.

"It seems to be feasible, then I'll send a recruit."

Rosen entered the hall of the castle alone.

The castle was designed by him, and naturally knew the structure, the front yard was the town office building, and the back yard was the baron's home.

The castle is newly built, and the decoration is naturally about nothing, and the windows of most of the rooms are not glassed, but it is much better than sleeping in a field tent.

Soon, Rosen found Alice on the highest rooftop of the castle who was lying on a chaise longue basking in the sun. Thrandis.

She curled up lazily on the chaise longue like a cat, letting the autumn breeze brush the fiery red hair beside Bai Yu's cheeks.

When she saw Rosen, her eyes were still closed, but a smile was already on her face.

"Father, I feel the joy in your heart, and I think it should go well."

It's been a long time since Rosen has heard Alice call his father, and this time he suddenly heard it, and it felt a little fresh.

In other words, he is now several centimeters taller than Thrandis, and his physique is far stronger than her, and he does have a bit of a father's majesty.

For mages, the slightest accomplishment of earthly trivialities is not worth mentioning, and only magic is worth paying attention to.

He was going to tell her the real good news.

So, he walked over to the chaise longue, crouched down beside her, and whispered in her ear.

"Abandoning polarity and strengthening pure mana to the limit is the way of high-level logic."

Thrandis snapped her eyes open, looked straight at her husband, and then leaned in and kissed him passionately on the lips.

Rosen picked her up from the chair, put her on the chair himself, and then held her in his arms.

Thrandis grinned: "Father~~ Do you want to love your daughter under the sun?"

Rosen shook his head, just snuggling up to his wife, face to face.

After a moment of silence, he whispered, "We need to make some preparations to deal with the mad archmages that may appear in the future."

How to prepare?

One of the most important points is to gain more knowledge of the soul.

Who do you want to get?

Alfroya, of course.

In the superlatively strong, the depreciation of knowledge is very fast, because the superlatively strong have extremely strong snooping ability and learning ability.

Before the new knowledge has depreciated, it is the wisest way to quickly change a wave of valuable rewards.
