Chapter 295: You Won't Kneel? (1/3)
About half an hour later, ten microscopes were delivered to Mona.
Each microscope is packed in a delicate wooden box, the size of the wooden box is 50 cm high, 30 cm long and wide, and weighs 15 pounds, which is neither light nor heavy.
In the end, it was a big business of 100,000 crowns, and Mona did not dare to slack off.
Looking at the refining apprentice in charge of the handover, she cautiously asked, "Can I inspect the goods?" ”
This apprentice is not young, nearly 30 years old, with a square face, a serious expression, thin lips tightly pursed, and a little white head, giving people a very difficult feeling to speak.
He introduced himself first.
"I'm Hazzard, an apprentice of refining, and I'm your entourage. All my expenses will be borne by the lord, and my job is to assist the client in making better use of the precision magic tools produced by my crescent lord. ”
Subsequently, he decisively rejected Mona's request.
"Miss, the microscope mirror has been carefully inspected when leaving the workshop to make sure that everything is flawless before it is packed."
Mona immediately whispered softly: "Just test one, okay?" ”
Hazzard seemed to be ruthless, and said solemnly: "Miss Mona, don't you believe in the credibility of the lord?!"
It's a ruthless iron face.
Mona felt herself kicked the iron plate and smiled awkwardly: "I naturally believe in the reputation of the lord. Then load the car. ”
She was going to tell Lifu to move the goods.
"Wait!"
Hazzard shouted again to stop.
"Miss, the microscope is a precision instrument, and any error may cause the instrument to fail."
"When loading the car, first spread a sufficiently thick amount of hay under the car, and buy a sufficient amount of thick cotton cloth to wrap it carefully and wrap it in at least five layers. They should also be stuffed with cotton to prevent collisions. ”
"Finally, I'll also have a constant Weak Thur Levitation Technique and a Weak Constant Temperature Circle on the body of the truck."
"The former prevents bumps. The latter prevents the instrument from being deformed due to drastic temperature changes. ”
Mona immediately felt that this technical specialist was particularly professional and praised it repeatedly.
"It's a device that can see into the most subtle mysteries."
Mona immediately commanded the minions.
"You, go to the market and buy a bunch of hay, thick cotton cloth and cotton, the thicker the better."
As soon as the things were bought, Hazard began to command Lif.
"First carefully arrange a circle in the freight car, and the bottom and four walls should be filled."
"Yes, that's right.
"Okay, now you can move it, move it lightly, handle it lightly, put it gently, pay attention to the upper and lower positions, and never turn it upside down!"
"Cotton cloth is also stuffed between the separate boxes, yes, stuffed, don't be stingy with cotton. How much money is cotton for it? ”
"Alright, all stand out, I'm going to start casting spells."
Finally, the microscope mirror was secured, and other goods from Crescent Town were also delivered.
These items include 1,000 advanced Mithril Petrified Staffs, 100 pairs of precision-focused binoculars, and 1,000 artifacts and rune stones of various grades and functions.
It looks like a lot, but in fact, the volume is not large, and they are all goods with high knowledge added value.
Its total value has already reached 250,000 kroons.
In addition, there were ten sample rifles, but they were taken to various temples for sale.
During the loading process, Hazzard, the apprentice of refining, gave careful instructions and was meticulous in his attitude, not asking for the foolproof nature of the goods.
In fact, from today onwards, it will be his main job.
Nearly thirty years old, low-level mana, refining talent is average, but fortunately, he has a good memory and an extremely stubborn and rigorous character.
Although his refining techniques are moderately low, he is familiar with the basic principles of each product in the workshop, maintenance methods, and simple repairs.
After being favored by Rosen, he arranged such a position as a technician accompanying the caravan.
Because he had to leave his hometown and accompany the caravan on a journey north and south, and the task was also important, Rosen gave him an excess monthly salary of 80 crowns, as well as food, lodging and even entertainment subsidies.
For Hazzard, this is an unthinkable high income.
He came from a farming family, and none of his relatives and friends were farmers who worked in the mud, earning more than 20 crowns a year.
He is now truly a glorious ancestor.
In fact, when he learned that he had been accepted as an apprentice refining by his lord, the village matchmaker formed a long queue in front of his house.
His two younger brothers also directly married the beautiful girl they liked.
Therefore, he cherished this opportunity very much, and he was very grateful to the lord.
The value of the goods was very high, and before leaving, Mona did not dare to slack off, and hired a large number of good men as the escort of the convoy.
Businessmen do business, and every second counts.
After the loading was completed, the convoy immediately set off and headed south to the highlands.
Mona is an experienced businessman, and she is the most trusted by Candela, and at this time she has done such a large amount of business, and she personally escorts the car all the way.
The goods came out of Crescent Town, along the smooth petrochemical road, quickly went south to the Amber River Wharf in Maple Town, and after the goods boarded, the three big ships went all the way south along the river.
When passing through Fanggu Town, he carried large vasks of clay potions, filled the fleet with half of the fleet, and continued south.
Pass by Baron Dumont's riverside town, load the riverside town specialties again, and fill the boat to the brim.
In terms of the volume of goods, the goods of the latter two lords are more than ten times that of Crescent Town, but in terms of value, they are not even one-tenth of the former.
According to Mona's personal thoughts, she is too lazy to do this business, but this is all sophisticated, and she can only admit that this business does not make a lot of money.
In the end, the fleet converged all the way to the Hanshui River, and after walking down for half a day, it reached the junction of the three realms.
Continue south to the east, turn to the right and turn right to the middle.
In terms of alchemy technology, the Middle Realm is also far behind the Eastern Realm.
In terms of social vitality, the middle realm is also far inferior to the eastern realm.
However, in terms of academic atmosphere and affluence, the Middle Realm, where the imperial capital is located, is only slightly inferior to the Eastern Territory.
Glancing at the wide river leading to the east, Mona sighed secretly.
If they go to the Middle Realm this time, they will definitely be completely hated by the Marquis of Broken Leaf City, and the business in the East will become very difficult in the future.
With apprehension, she said loudly: "Turn around the Golden Grand Canal and go to the Great Golden Lake Wharf in the imperial capital."
There are two major rivers in the golden land, the Hanshui River in the northeast and the Nuyan River in the southwest, and the two river systems are originally independent of each other.
However, more than 500 years ago, the Divine Emperor Deuta V gathered the forces of all realms, requisitioned more than 1 million people and tens of thousands of mages, and spent ten years to build the Golden Grand Canal with a length of more than 1,500 meters, connecting the transportation water network of the golden land.
The Grand Canal is divided into two sections, one running southeast and one running north-south, and the middle is connected to the Great Golden Lake, and the lakeside is Fort Romil, the imperial capital.
Although the owner Candela himself does not take the imperial capital trade route, his Lawrence family still has a lot of business in the imperial capital, and can borrow a little.
But how much can be borrowed, and whether this trip can make a lot of money, Mona has no idea.
She stood at the bow of the boat and whispered a prayer.
"May the gods protect the master, and also the town of Crescent."
It just so happened that Hazzard was also standing at the bow of the boat, and when he heard it, he said, "What is Miss Mona worried about?"
"My lord's goods are full of gold, and I can't find a second one, so it's impossible not to sell it."
Mona knew as soon as she heard that this person was an admirer of the Crescent Moon Lord, and she had almost blind faith in her own lord.
There are a lot of people in the crescent moon, because they haven't been out much and have seen little of the world, so they think that their lord is the most powerful person in the world.
As everyone knows, there are countless strong people in this world.
Of course, Mona also knew that arguing with such diehards would be in vain.
She could only nod: "You're right."
By the time the fleet entered the Grand Canal, it was already six o'clock the next morning.
At this time, about 100 miles away from the river to the south, the wharf of Broken Leaf City.
Dock Superintendent Huo Ze was loudly admonishing his subordinates.
"Your Excellency has issued a new order, as long as the ship is led by the new moon, it will be intercepted, and the transit tax will be charged four times, and the other party's profits will be squeezed clean, do you hear clearly?"
"Hear me clearly!"
"But there is an exception, that is, when there are exquisite oil paintings on the ship, and the subject of the oil paintings is related to the duke, nothing is left to do and immediately let them go."
"Yes, sir."
"Very good, everybody keep their eyes open and keep an eye on the river. The news is that the new moon has brought out a new ship, calculate the time, and it will arrive at noon at the latest! ”
"Understood."
A group of dock tax collectors cruised up and down the river on special tax-collecting boats, like wolves hunting for prey.
Minutes and seconds passed, and soon it was afternoon.
Many merchant ships came from the river, but none of them were brought out by the crescent.
The tax collectors waited left and right until it was dark, but they didn't find their target.
After the day went completely dark, the dockmaster got a new message.
"The cargo ship of the Crescent Moon Collar didn't come to Broken Leaf City at all, and went directly to the Middle Realm."
The dockmaster was stunned and immediately reported the news to the dock supervisor Huo Ze.
Huo Ze was stunned for a moment, and immediately reported.
About an hour later, when the news reached the high castle of the Hollennier family, the Marquis was having dinner with his family.
As soon as he heard the news, his face turned blue, the mana in his body surged, and a terrifying light flashed in his eyes.
'Click! ’
There was a piercing crackling sound of metal, and the silver table knife in his hand was directly crushed into a silver ingot by the mage's hand.
Everyone in the restaurant was silent, and the air was as calm as water.
It took a long time for the marquis's face to return to normal, but his eyes were gloomy and frightening.
"Hehe, it seems that Candela is not going to do business in the East."
The family members who were familiar with his personality did not dare to say a word, nor did they dare to breathe, let alone eat, for fear of suffering the aftermath of anger.
After a long time, Hollennier said again: "I am stunned for what to do, continue to eat."
"Get me a new cleaver."
When the new knife was handed over, he vigorously cut a slice of meat, put it in his mouth and chewed vigorously, as if chewing the flesh of his enemy.
He is fifty years old this year, and at the age of 43, he broke through the master cliff and was promoted to a level 1 archmage.
Now that 7 years have passed, he is already a level 2 archmage, which is considered a good magic genius.
In addition to the realm of mana, he has achieved outstanding results in the field of magic, and at the same time, he is also the Marquis of God, the lord of the sixth city in the east, with more than 5 million people.
Such a divine person naturally has a pride in his heart that is far beyond ordinary people.
When the Crescent Moon Leader revealed a constant structure of magic that could be strengthened for 40 years, and suddenly increased the constant record he had created by 8 times, he felt a little unhappy in his heart.
Forget it, after all, it's the progress of the spell, and it's a good thing for the entire Golden Land.
Unexpectedly, the other party actually integrated this thing into the petrified construction technique, and created the miracle of building a town in January, and even humiliated Sir Mason, who he specially sent to the Crescent Moon Territory to explore the secrets of petrification.
As a result, he looked at the Crescent Moon Lord more and more unpleasantly.
If that's all there is to it, then forget it, but the other party also specially sent three petrified Mithril staffs.
At first, he was quite happy, thinking that the Crescent Lord was very good, so he began to break the so-called spell lock on the staff with great interest.
In his mind, what is the difficulty of a spell lock invented by a middle-level mage, there is no reason why it cannot be broken with a real thing in front of him.
As a result, almost three months have passed, and he has made no progress except for making himself dizzy.
The long-term failures accumulated in his heart, and while he felt very frustrated, he also felt an invisible anger that rose up, and he felt that he had been humiliated by a mid-level mage.
Then since he lost to the other party in magic, he naturally found a way back from the world.
I thought that the other party would obediently give in, and took the initiative to send the secret of petrification to the door to seek reconciliation.
As a result, unexpectedly, the young Crescent Moon Lord not only did not give in, but simply did not follow his trade path.
This ignited the anger in his chest.
'A lowly baron, do you insist on doing anything against me?' ’
With a good beard, a square face, and a majestic demeanor, the Marquis of God gave him more and more anger, and his appetite for dinner was gone.
"It's okay, you can be your little lord, don't think about doing business!"
He knew that the other party had an oil painting relationship with the princess, and the princess gave a lot of money, but it was useless to have money.
If money can't buy supplies, then money is no different from scrap metal.
He couldn't control the painting, so he blocked specific materials, especially those unique to the East.
For example, refining equipment, rare materials, high-grade alchemy potions, and so on.
Kill them all!
As long as they pass through his territory, all land and water routes are blocked.
Not only to stop himself, but also to persuade the great lords of the east, and even the middle, and even the north to resist together.
Verbal persuasion is useless, just exchange interests, even if you lose a thousand yourself, you have to make the business of the Crescent Moon Collar unable to do it!
He's not bad for money anyway.
And even if the other party knelt in front of him and begged for forgiveness in pain, he would never forgive!
Three watches a day will probably last for six days. After six days, the manuscript is sufficient, and the fourth update will be restarted until the end of the month.
