"Mr. Clement, you're back," Leon bowed slightly.

For this strange old gentleman, the young man has given up his original idea, no longer cares about his origins, and no longer asks when he will leave, and it is estimated that he will soon evolve to the point of "no other in his heart".

Because Leon has figured it out, the observer has maintained his own set of purposes for so many years, and presumably it will not have any adverse effect on him, so let him be. It's just an old gentleman, it doesn't matter if you eat and live for decades, and you can take this opportunity to let Erin learn more from him, so it can be said that the input is far greater than the output.

Seeing Li Ang's indifferent expression, Clement touched his beard and said with a smile: "Yes, I wanted to be quiet here for a few days, but I didn't expect that I couldn't be idle at all, and I was really born tired." ”

He sighed, and continued: "Fortunately, the last few days are over, and I can finally rest for a while, otherwise this old bone will be unbearable." ”

Li Ang's heart moved, he observed the other party carefully, and said after a while: "It's really hard, then you can rest well, if you need anything, you can tell Jeff, and I will let him try to meet your requirements." ”

Clement's expression was pleased, and he first thanked the young lord for his generosity. Then he said: "I've always been obsessed with Jeff's cuisine, and I've been thinking about how to improve a few dishes during this time, so I can exchange experiences with him." Oh, and Miss Sophia, I brought her some not-so-common flower and plant seeds, and she should be happy. ”

"Definitely," Leon said with a smile, "not only Sophia, but Erin will be very happy to know that you are back." And she has good news for you. ”

"Good news?" Clement blinked, "that's really something I'm looking forward to." ”

"Erin must want to tell you the news herself, so I won't say much. Leon looked at the sky and said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Clement, but I'm all over now. I can't say much more to you. Next time we have a chance, we can have a good chat. ”

"But you can come and go as if it were your own home, and I would be honoured to have such a knowledgeable and kind old gentleman as you to stay on the estate. ”

Clement couldn't help but laugh, "Lord Lord, I have to admit that you are very good at talking, and even an old man like me feels happy. ”

As he spoke, he took out a thin envelope from his pocket and handed it to the young man.

"I'll delay you a little longer......" Clement said with some embarrassment, "Actually, I have one more special thing this time." ”

Leon opened the envelope. Take out a rather delicate card inside, and look at it from the first line.

"Ten azure agate. Twenty lapis lazuli, ten pure white jade, thirty purple-veined jade......"

Looking at these extremely rare gemstone varieties and the number behind them, the young man raised his head in confusion and asked, "What is this?"

"Oh, you know, in the past ten years, it seems that there has been an explosion of talents, and a considerable number of outstanding young people have been emerging, and Candlekeep, as a reasonably reasonable mage organization, in order not to be left too far behind by other organizations, we have also absorbed some of these talents - of course, including Miss Irene," Clement smiled and said, "Well, in order to cultivate these talents, our various reserves are very expensive, especially the refining of magic equipment and the materials for building magic towers, so ...... It is necessary to purchase a batch of gemstones from outside as a supplement"

Leon and Clement looked at each other quietly, and after a moment he suddenly smiled and said, "Then why did you find me? I'm just a young lord of a small territory, how can there be so many precious and rare gems?"

"Oh no, no," Clement shook his head and smiled, "Your lord, you're too low-key, but I believe in your abilities more than you do." ”

The gray-haired old man suddenly looked left and right, and then approached Li Ang's side with a strange expression, and whispered: "In return for the previous cooperation, I will privately reveal to you a piece of news, since this time it is an urgent need for supplementary materials, so if someone can supply it in large quantities, our purchase price will be higher than that of other places...... Including the Skyrim Chamber of Commerce, it's fifty percent higher, don't you think about it?"

The young man immediately coughed with his fist gagged,

"Well, actually, I just got my grandfather's inheritance, and it probably has some of the gems you need, since we had a good relationship with Erin in the past...... I'll bring you the gems tomorrow. ”

Li Ang said very sternly, as if he had completely forgotten that he had just denied the other party's request.

Clement was not at all dissatisfied, but said with considerable satisfaction: "Your Excellency is really generous, then I will be waiting at my lodgings tomorrow morning." ”

The two of them chatted a few more words, and Leon took the opportunity to invite Clement to the manor party, and only after receiving an affirmative answer did he politely say goodbye to the other party.

When Li Ang came to the alchemy workshop, the alchemy master, who was fidgeting, pulled him in, glared at him and whispered, "Why is it so long?"

"I just met Clement and talked to him for a while," the young man said with a playful smile, "and I made a fortune from him by the way!"

Although Leon appeared quite mature in front of the others, and became more and more like a leader, he felt quite relaxed in front of Kaka, and he still spoke and acted like the young man who had first arrived in Gray Town.

"That mysterious old fellow?" Kaka said with a frown, "He's back?"

"Yes, he wanted to buy a batch of gems from me, and I agreed. ”

Kaka took the list handed over by the apprentice and looked at it carefully for a while, his brow furrowing deeper and deeper.

"It's too hasty!" Kaka shook his head and said, "Although the mine you found is a rich mine, if you want to mine quietly, the speed will definitely slow down, and you won't have enough harvest in a few years!

"If you go to the mines with great fanfare in order to make up the numbers, you will definitely be discovered, do you think the gains are directly proportional to the troubles!"

"Hehe...... apprentice smiled mysteriously, "Sure enough, it's the mentor, and he really thinks about me everywhere." ”

Kaka's eyes kicked and he was about to roar, but Leon continued casually, "I told you before that the Ancient Tree gave me a batch of precious materials, in fact...... He also sent another batch of things. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, the young apprentice reached forward and took it back, and when he took it back, he had a handful of shining gems.

Next, under the disbelieving gaze of the alchemy master, a handful of gems appeared in Li Ang's hand out of thin air, and then placed them on the wide workbench.

After a moment, the entire table was almost covered with precious stones, and all kinds of light were shining together, and at the same time, a faint layer of power fluctuations were surging.

Kaka swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said slowly, "These are all gifts from the Ancient Tree?"

"Yes, but it's only a dozen of them, mainly because your table is too small to fit," said the young man with a smug expression. (To be continued......)
